anime

[tired karma]

oh alright, Santa Claus is like Sugar from one piece

[quartz vector]

Happy birthday to BUGGY🎉

[blissful granite]

Have who blocked? Anyways yeah it's Fire Force

Knowing how the series goes so far I wish we had gone back to his original goal

[knotty linden]

Its Muichiro Tokito's birthday

[nova siren]

Why is its everyones birthday

WAIT SEVEN DEADLY SINS PART 2 CAME OUT🤑

[nova siren]

Its Bakugos birthday🤑🤑🤑

Its doflamingos birthday🤑🤑🤑🤑

[dawn otter]

idk why I keep going on twitter, it's all just people trying to say naruto is stronger than Luffy right now 😭

[raven vigil]

Why do you care?

[dawn otter]

I don't (much), I only care when they're actively insulting one of the animes, like just let people enjoy their show cmon

can't we just say that they don't fight each other and just become friends? I mean it's literally both of their specialties canonically

[raven vigil]

All anime is stupid

There, now you immune to anime insults

[dawn otter]

I mean yeah, everything is ridiculous in these shows 💀

[raven vigil]

That's the fun part!

[verbal adder]

The cool thing about anime is that there are no bad ideas

Want a dog that is secretly a super hero? That's probably an anime

[raven vigil]

There was a music genre recently that said "we want an anime,"
This birthed the first time I saw an anime musical

[dawn otter]

I mean it's fun because you see the protagonist just obliterating the antagonist in either the coolest or funniest ways imagineable

[light wagon]

What's yalls favorite anime??

[dawn otter]

like we went from zoro (spoiler) ||calling himself the king of hell|| to Luffy (spoiler) ||literally becoming a cartoon character||

[raven vigil]

You can narrow it down?

[dawn otter]

I have like 2 favourites and they're extremely different

[raven vigil]

You can have more than one favorite

[verbal adder]

I don't have a favorite at the moment
I'm going to watch dragon ball and cowboy bebop though

[dawn otter]

well one is One Piece and the other is Dr. Stone, they're almost like polar opposites

I tried watching dragon ball but got bored of it pretty fast

[raven vigil]

Bebop was disappointing for me. It was all style, which was good style, but only a few episodes had like.. real substance to me?
It felt like an unrealized idea they were too scared making the main focus. Idk why. It came from the era of anime passion projects

[thick maple]

I'd say they're pretty similar

[thick maple]

I thought it was swell, the episodes specifically about the characters were my favorite but the fights were really fun

Some aspects didn't quite click with me (the yakuza) but I guess they can't all be winners

[raven vigil]

The whole spike story felt compressed without enough tidbits of it sprinkled throughout the series to keep it really relevant. It had two or three 'main' episodes for me

For him, for me*

[dawn otter]

I mean one is about fighting for freedom and stopping the government from becoming more corrupt, and the other is about a teenager trying to rebuild all of humanity basically by himself (only one who knows science)

[wary lava]

Re:Zero

[raven vigil]

Though i guess Kaiba was the same in a similar way. It was about exploring others, so the main character was often an observer to others actions and desires.

And no, I'm not talking about Seto Kaiba.

The SEE YOU SPACE COWBOY . . . always got me, though.

[thick maple]

One is about a teenager trying to become the most free man in the world and the other is about a teenager trying to get humanity back to the modern era
They're similar in terms of action and whatnot, although Dr. Stone tries to be more informative... they definitely aren't opposites

An opposite of One Piece would be a slice of life of a guy working his grocery job in Tokyo

[dawn otter]

I was just saying opposite because dr stone doesn't have anyone who is made of rubber or can split their body parts up as much as they want

[thick maple]

By that logic Naruto and Naruto: Shippuden are opposites because the main character isn't a young little guy anymore

[dawn otter]

Man I'm just saying they're different chill out 😭

Idk why this has you so heated

[thick maple]

No, you said they're polar opposites and that it's WEIRD!! Quit harrassing your own taste!**
**

[thick maple]

I think it got as much time as it needed, but then again I was also pretty uninterested in it (I don't like dwelling on the past)...

[dawn otter]

I never said it's weird?

[thick maple]

Oh- pardon me sire, I have overstepped my boundaries.

[dawn otter]

https://tenor.com/view/huh-cat-gif-26460616

Huh

[raven vigil]

I have my doubts we have an agreement on this. Looks like we took different things from the series

[quartz vector]

Its Even buggys birthday

[raven vigil]

I have Ortho's birthday in a few days.

[knotty linden]

Demon Slayer, Chainsaw Man, Jujutsu Kaisen (still watching), and One Piece (also still watching)

[blissful granite]

Just finished reading chapter 5 of FMA. I didn't expect to see the chimera thing early on

[raven vigil]

Yeah, they are one of the first few episodes, I think...

[blissful granite]

I really wanted to see Alfons kick his ass too

[terse island]

Alright because of some fucking weirdos not understanding common sense and common decency as well as having a socializing skill, this channel will be stricter now with what topics you can discuss. Stop being fucking weird, have NORMAL DISCUSSIONS about anime that isn’t inappropriate, don’t be fucking weird about it as well. This server is 13+ so there’s a majority of KIDS HERE. CHILL THE FUCK OUT.

[thick maple]

I didn't see anything like that... did the messages get deleted just now or something?

[terse island]

There were a LOT of unsavory things I saw from the logs the got blocked because it was blacklisted. You aren’t part of it so don’t worry about it. This is a warning to all tho.

[thick maple]

I'm all for getting rid of inappropriate nonsense though, I was just wondering what it was about since I thought the current system was pretty swell (which is why I like this server)

[terse island]

Like I said, don’t worry about it.

As long as you’re following the rules, don’t concern yourself with other’s fuck ups.

[thick maple]

M'kayyyyyyy, thank you fellas for making this place not a total dumpster fire 🙏

[terse island]

Anyways I won’t be talking in here again to clog up this channel, but I will come back if people will be shits again.

[thick maple]

I personally don't think it should be pinned though as it applies to all channels

[terse island]

And as I said, this channel is going to be stricter now. It needs to be applied.

[raven vigil]

I said two things, and I am sorry. No acknowledgement needed. Just sorry

[thick maple]

Are you talking about the junk you said yesterday? I don't think that's what they're talking about if so

[blissful granite]

Man, what did you guys do 😭 then again this is discord so I am not even suprised

[wary lava]

Gear 5 was heat

That’s all I will say

[coarse remnant]

this is like walking into a burnt room- what the hell happened

[thick maple]

Nothing happened, but something could have happened if automod didn't filter out some things
I don't really get it too much myself, dunno how this channel specifically is going to be stricter but oh well 🤷

[full pollen]

Just some bad apples.
You guys here are pretty chill so don't mind it and continue with your day/night

[thick maple]

I actually think this channel is nicer than #general 😊 probably because it's just slower and being mean is off-topic

[plain granite]

same. plus i dont need to keep track of 10 million conversations at once

[vestal sluice]

Heh it hits outta the blue

[void ingot]

[blissful granite]

Yeah, I did not expect it to happen in the literal second volume of the manga

[raven vigil]

Surprise! 💖

[gleaming lark]

What happened while I was suffering at school dayum

[wary lava]

Luffy gear 5

[thick maple]

I have fully caught up with the One Piece manga!!!! I caught up at the perfect time too, the most recent chapter was great and it's on break for a week so I get to have a honeymoon period! **

[sharp dew]

😭

Has anyone seen made in abyss

I want to watch it but I'm not sure if I should or not

[torn steeple]

How can you be christian AND watch anime?

Cope

Cope

You watched too many if you think that way

What

Your not christian

Oh ok

How did you find out

Can you say that in a simpler language please

I dont understand

Maybe

Im not

Yes

Ok

You too

[full pollen]

@wary lava@torn steepleKeep those topics in dms....

[torn steeple]

[raven vigil]

What about Made in Abyss makes you nervous? What things are on the yes/no list for you?

[sharp dew]

Well I don't really have any so far so that's why I'm asking

[thick maple]

Yeah I watched both seasons + the movie, it contains LOTS of nude humor and the second season (in my opinion) is half-baked -- as in, the writers didn't use anything to its fullest potential. The movie significantly diminished my love for all of the main cast with the sheer amount of perv jokes. However, I did mostly like the first season; it's just everything after which absolutely mess it up for me

[sharp dew]

Okay thank you!

[thick maple]

Please do keep in mind my review of the second season has 1:3.75 like to dislike ratio, so clearly my opinion is in the minority

[sharp dew]

I do get that 100% but I feel like I should finish all of the season so all of the entire show makes sense in it's entirety

[thick maple]

Oh no I'm not suggesting you just watch the first season and quit..

Also, the show isn't done yet, I think the next season/movie should be the last??

[sharp dew]

Ahhh, okay thanks again!

[thick maple]

Well well well, I think the manga isn't done either

[sharp dew]

Ah!

[thick maple]

I do wonder if the manga is better though, the second season struck me in a "poor adaptation" kind of way with what it didn't expand on

[wary lava]

There's been 2 shows I've watched for the first time this year that have become all-time favourites of mine, which would both be Gurren Lagann and Black Lagoon. Other shows I''ve watched since starting the new year that I've enjoyed have been Non-Non Biyori, Lycoris Recoil, My Dress Up Darling, Bocchi the Rock, Gundam Witch from Mercury, as well as some movies like Bayonetta Bloody Fate and the Cowboy Bepop movie.

[thick maple]

Only two? Well I've gotten three new favorites this year 😎 ...... and also a lot of failures too...

Link Click opened my eyes to the fact that not all time travel stories are well done (an insane prospect, I know)

[wary lava]

I've loved all the shows I've seen this year, but particularly Gurren Lagann and Black Lagoon have hugely stood out to me, especially given they're all time classics from the 2000's.

[thick maple]

Both of them are on my third todo list (they're hidden deep within my soul if I were ever desperate) but I do some day plan to check them out. Serial Experiments Lain is one of my new favorites and it was made in 1998 but it could very well have been made in 2010 and would still be just as swell -- and not just because of its topics

I wouldn't dare to say Serial Experiments Lain is timeless though, for something to be timeless it has to be perfect and perfect for everyone -- which is impossible!

I dunno how you've managed to love every show you've seen though, my track record is pretty scuffed

[wary lava]

Honestly there's been very few shows I've seen that I've genuinely disliked, especially from when I went on my anime binge watch in 2020.

[thick maple]

I also binged a lot of anime in 2020, what's shocking is that almost none of them are in my top 15...

Because of that though, I have utterly lost the ability to binge watch (and for the better!)

[wary lava]

Ah!

I probably won't go through that phase again either to be fair.

Like for example, the one show I can say I dropped after just a few episodes because I got so pissed off with it, was the original Fate/Stay Night series from 2006.

[thick maple]

If it were any of the Fates, I think the first one makes sense (the source material is allegedly very inappropriate, so I imagine it took them a while to make it appropriate (or so I assume))

[wary lava]

Ah.

[thick maple]

Fate seems like an indomitable beast to get through, it's so messy!

However, Fate is the birth place of Neco Arc so it must be good!

[wary lava]

Honestly, the reason I dropped it was simply because of Emiya Shirou. He legit drove me up the wall with how utterly dense and dumbfounded he was, not just in his actions but other stuff he was doing, and I just felt it wasn't worth continuing if I just going to get really angry at him half the time, so I dumped the show after like episode 4.

[thick maple]

I'd do the same; you don't have any loyalty to fulfill by finishing it, so why struggle to the end?!

"Because the ending might reconcile it all," the trap I so commonly fall for...

I think that's enough about the philosophy of watching anime though

[wary lava]

Yeah.

I did actually decide to watch Unlimited Blade Works not longer after that, and that was so much better.

As well as Fate/Zero which I watched prior to it.

The Carnival Phantasm series was a really nice fun spin off too.

https://tenor.com/view/saber-lion-gif-26145864

[tired karma]

i caught up to chainsaw man in four days and you can really tell when my interest started coming along 💀

day 1 - read up to chapter 18
day 2 - read up to chapter 53
day 3 - read up to chapter 108
day 4 - read up to chapter 138 (caught up)

[vestal sluice]

It's crazy, I know

[vestal sluice]

It took me about a week to read the entirety of chainsaw man, manga is wiiiild fude

I slowly read the first 30-40 chapters

Got to 50-ish and read the rest in like two nights

[tired karma]

Part 2 is so dry

I still can’t cope with Aki though

[vestal sluice]

Lmao valid

Yeah second arc is kinda slow, haven't read it in 15 or so chapters

[low fable]

GEAR 5 😍

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gr8reTtElqc

[wary lava]

I've also watched the likes of Season 3 of Dr Stone, Season 2 of the Shield Hero, Season 2 of D4DJ as well.

[wary lava]

The first anime I remember watching in the 2010s was Lucky Star in the English Dub in late 2014, and I remember quite enjoying it back then.

Then a couple of years later some friends of mine got me into Idol Hell with Love Live, which I've also enjoyed being part of. And some other shows here and there I saw like Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki Kun and Gabriel DropOut.

[valid idol]

I'm so close to the newest episodes of one peice im so excited 😄 I'm on episode 1043

[light wagon]

Bro

Who's more powerful

Saitama or goku 🤔

Now that I think about it
They both have unlimited or unknown limits to their strength

[thick maple]

Quit asking these dumb questions man 😭 Goku would win because he has stronger plot armor, obviously!

[shadow forge]

Anime about whiskey! Yeah buddy!!!

2nd key visual

Komada

[wary lava]

I’m betting on Saitama

[fringe shoal]

Before part 2 of the manga I read it all in a day and even if I didn't read it until now I probably still would've read it all in a day

[dense cipher]

I would say saitama even tho goku is also insanely strong

[fringe shoal]

I would also say saitama because his whole character is a parody based off of other shonens

[dense cipher]

I would also say saitama again bc most of his strength is opened from emotion

but I dont think there is a way goku can really piss of saitama enough for that

[fringe shoal]

If anything it would probably end with a stalemate if he doesn't piss off saitama

[terse island]

There’s always a debate between saitama vs goku but like…how many times has goku died and how many times has saitama died? 😭

[fringe shoal]

That's fair

[dense cipher]

Idk

[terse island]

iirc goku has died a few times and saitama never died?

[fringe shoal]

Haven't seen dragon ball but I believe he does die a few times

[dense cipher]

I dont think it matters how much they died

[terse island]

To me it does because everyone keeps wanting to compare power scale between the both, I think the real question should be beerus vs saitama

I don’t watch dragon ball but I know beerus is someone you don’t want to cross with 😭

[dense cipher]

Eh idk

Im still on the part with the tournament and goku is fighing Hit

[wary lava]

I love how Saitama does all that he does while still having just about the same facial expressions too 😆

https://tenor.com/view/saitama-genos-boros-one-punch-man-gif-26423531

[wary lava]

If I had an ideal top 10 for my all-time favourite anime shows, I think some candidates for it for sure be Gurren Lagann, Black Lagoon, Kill la Kill, Cowboy Bepop

And possibly Konosuba too.

[thorn meteor]

I read it in 2 days L

[tired karma]

it's not a competition bro 💀

[wary lava]

That's sure a lot of time you have on your hands 😄

[tired karma]

i just realized

swordman is one of the hybrids that fought true pochita

[wary lava]

Some favourite Slice of Life shows for me would have to be K-On!, Yuru Camp and Azumanda Daioh.

[thick maple]

If I was physically capable of watching slice of life I'd probably love Azumanga Daioh, two out of the three jokes I've seen it do have been funny to me

Unfortunately my limbs grow weak and my mind begins to fade into the subconscious as I try to enjoy slice of life

[raven vigil]

Wotakoi was a good SoL

[wary lava]

That's a really good one too.

It honestly has one of the most adorable anime openings I've seen, which is amazing consisdering the shows cast is mainly adult characters.

[raven vigil]

The fact that they didn't animate all of it is painful. It was very refreshing to see a romance that wasn't childish

Okay, it was s little childish

[wary lava]

You can excuse that though given they're adults, they're allowed to have some fun to relive their younger years in a way.

[raven vigil]

the whole thing is such a delight. It good. Good shit.

[wary lava]

Oh absolutely. It's one of very very few exceptions I can make for watching romance anime.

[fathom trail]

Ngl berserk is peak

But the others are also peak too

[onyx raft]

To Your Eternity was pretty good

[thick maple]

Peak of what

[late harbor]

I need to pick up watching the rest of season 2 on Vinland saga I need to see more of my husband Thorkell

[coarse remnant]

no it isnt (i never read berserk)

[hushed cradle]

Tbf Saitama is a joke character.
Goku isn't.

Saitama is winning

Bros called one punch man for a reason

Heres my kaguya sama tierlist.
The anime has a lot of solid characters

[wary lava]

I've yet to watch Season 3 of the show though I probably should eventually.

[terse island]

Yeah I’m aware it’s a joke character, I’m mainly just messing around lol

[thick maple]

Is it truly a real conversation if it's about powerscaling?**
**

Yeah but it's so boringggg!! It's hardly constructive at all!

I'm an anti-powerscaler if you couldn't tell

[terse island]

It is, I was answering to that because someone asked that a few days ago.

[vestal sluice]

It's plot armor vs plot armor

It's like arguing if an immovable object can be moved by an unstoppable force

[vestal sluice]

Cowboy Bebop. Based

https://tenor.com/view/anime-smoking-whatever-happens-happens-gif-14588070

[thick maple]

How is that based

[vestal sluice]

It's a based pick for a top ten

[thick maple]

Based is when you say your opinions without worrying what other people think of you from them -- now a lot of things in life go this way, but typically the word is only used when the opinion isn't widely shared

Cowboy Bebop is one of the most popular anime

[terse island]

Spike is awesome

[vestal sluice]

[thick maple]

The cat on Mars was my absolute favorite character, but yeah I think the whole roster (apart from the beast) was great

Spike's fights were so fun

[terse island]

I was thinking of buying a fig of him this year as a gift cause my future sister in law loves him to death ;’)

[wary lava]

The movie as well, that shit was good.

[wary lava]

I also say the show has one of it not the greatest English Dub of all time.

[patent pivot]

Mmm idk, ever seen Ghost Stories?

I don’t think there’s much that beats that English dub

[terse island]

Heard of it, haven’t seen yet

[wary lava]

Ah yeah, Ghost Stories.

The show that didn't really have any sort of cohesive story so they told the English dub voices to just do what you want and have fun 😄

[chilly vortex]

y’all know about comicon?

[raven vigil]

Literally everyone on the internet knows about comicon...?

[chilly vortex]

Not everyone knows about it

No reason to be passive aggressive about it

[thick maple]

As far as I can tell, that isn't passive aggressive -- more of a, "Well I'd be quite surprised to find a community that doesn't know of Comicon," but yeah I'd agree, at least 23 people don't know what Comicon is. I can't believe Cel used "literally" incorrectly..

[raven vigil]

Sowwy

My friendship ended with PunPun. Now I am a Hero is my friend.

[thick maple]

Two things

1. spoilers wtfrick
2. hey I just dropped Punpun the other day!

Every image this fella has sent in this channel has been a spoiler...

(They have posted two images)

[south cipher]

This goes on in lile the forst 5 chapters blud

[patent pivot]

You know what’s up

The company went broke and still had the show or something like that, so they let the voice actors say literally whatever they want

[wary lava]

Yeah.

I’ll admit I’ve not seen the show in full, but the couple of clips and compilations I’ve seen of it are absolutely wild.

[patent pivot]

Yep.

[light wagon]

What the hell

[thick maple]

Holy hell that went 0 to 1000 insanely fast
Not sure if that video is against the rules or not though..

[lusty warren]

Apparently thinking Demon Slayer is a great series is a hot take

So many people either dislike it as a whole or can't stop comparing it to other manga and anime while insulting it

[terse island]

I think it’s cause people don’t like popular mainstreams

It’s weird

[lusty warren]

I'll never really get that mentality

[raven vigil]

This is it in summary. I'm sure we all have some sort of tendency toward it. Rejection unless introduced during its infancy.

Until you see that character and can reject no more.

[wary lava]

Steel ball run 🔛🔝

[onyx raft]

finished jjk season one again

ngl worth it, final battle was great

would watch again

[wary lava]

I've personally not been one to watch any of those long running series' that have lasted well over 10 or 15 years, simply because that would be hugely consuming for me.

Possibly the only one close to it that I have watched is My Hero Academia, as I first watched it during my anime bingewatch phase in 2020, and was able to catch up enough with the show as Season 4 was still airing at that time.

[thick maple]

Ahh not that much of a hot take, I suppose it's just the vocal minority you're hearing from. I personally didn't enjoy Demon Slayer (season 1) because of the forgettable story and lackluster characters, the story is a means to an end so that a new fight can start -- and I don't like the fights. At least that's about how I think of it

[vestal sluice]

DS is good

Anyone who thinks it isn't is just being contrarian

[thick maple]

Those damn contrarians and their differing opinions...

[proven summit]

Finally found an anime website that doesn't send me to unwanted websites, what should I watch

[thick maple]

You're usually supposed to find an anime first before trying to consume illegitimately hosted content

[proven summit]

So I flipped it
Oh well

Ok 👍

[tired karma]

ishigami at S is factually correct

[thick maple]

Very edgy indeed

But like, can you not? It doesn't really contribute anything to flood the channel with images like that...

[visual heath]

Someone in this server was talking about how much they liked toradora and that they got into it from Bryce, I have finished it recently and it was very good

[visual heath]

Quite excited about solo leveling anime

Damn

That’s a lot of anime

Another manhwa I was reading became an anime
A returners magic should be special

That one was a really enjoyable manhwa

I have kinda slowed down on watching anime but every once in a while I will find some enjoyable ones

Like manga but Korean i think

One piece was very enjoyable to read

I don’t know what the books are at but I have been reading on the shonen jump app

So weekly chapters are nice

I see

I really enjoy sakamoto days

It has manga and manhwa, it’s safe and there are no ads

Unless it’s copyrighted by shonen jump then I usually use mangadex

[raven vigil]

Who is 4th?

[empty tusk]

Idk

[wary lava]

the people in skypia were using observation haki

Just straight up observation haki

[thick maple]

While I do heavily respect certain scanlations, a majority of the scanlations that MD hosts are done without permission from the copyright holders -- and thus due to international copyright laws are illegal. Since MD primarily promotes and does no effort to prevent this illegal material, it itself is referred to as a method for piracy. Please refrain from promoting piracy websites.

[thick maple]

Yeah no duh

Spoilers! Jeez...

[wary lava]

💀💀💀

[thick maple]

To their credit, MD does prohibit submission of pre-translated scribes, ripping translated pages from the official source and uploading it to MD would break their terms of service.

[visual heath]

Damn, i didn’t know that

I’ll just use asura scans then

[thick maple]

That's the same thing!!

[visual heath]

Man wtf

[thick maple]

Yeah it's a cruel world

[visual heath]

Those are the only websites i trust

I tried other ones but they are kinda sketchy

[thick maple]

Find the translation fellows who license the manga they scan/translate

[visual heath]

Ok

[thick maple]

Truth be told though, I don't judge people who use those sites... it's just the US government (and by extension, Discord,) who do - and their opinions matter more than mine!

[visual heath]

I see

Thanks for the advice though

[coarse remnant]

didnt viz release their own app recently

they must have a lot of stuff there right?

Mushoku Tensei: The Quest for the Cure to ED

I'm still shook on how this is the most badass mage ever, and she's close combat to boot. I swear she's giving the Avatar a run for their money just by her sheer ferocity.

[tired karma]

can we all agree that chainsaw man only started when Aki made a contract with the future devil

[fringe shoal]

No it started at chapter one

[tired karma]

the story itself

[fringe shoal]

Yeah it starts at chapter one

[tired karma]

the meaty plot of part 1 only starts when aki makes the contract

before that is just the introduction of the characters 🤷

[fringe shoal]

Just because it takes a bit for the story to get going doesn't mean the story doesn't start at the beginning

[tired karma]

i'm talking about the ACTUAL story, of course it starts at chapter 1, but i'm talking about when the story about the gun devil and everything else starts

[thick maple]

What ever part of it is the "actual story" is subjective; so to answer your question, no, we can not all agree...

It was between rose and orange, I'm orange in pretty much every other server I'm in but I have different traditions in this server

For example: my nickname isn't my name incorporated into the last [piece of media] I consumed

[gleaming lark]

new one piece tonight

yippee

[thick bluff]

Who would win truck kun or goku

[thick maple]

Truck-kun would succeed in killing Goku, however Goku would be brought back in 13 episodes via time travel or something (they would make junk up)

[grave ice]

But I’m only on 417

Luffys in boys

[gleaming lark]

I'm on 874 on my rewatch

[thick maple]

I never noticed how pretty they make her hair -- although the art style makes it looks like globs in some areas

[icy halo]

I´m on episode 980 of one piece, Im so close to catching up!

[dawn otter]

I'm caught up with the anime and have started the manga, gotta say that one fight near the start of the next arc is pretty epic

[vale onyx]

[gleaming lark]

The new one piece episode was amazing

There wasn't a single ounce of flashback

Chef's kiss

[half wharf]

nah man it got real when Kobeni was real (I love kobeni 🙏)

[lusty warren]

Kobeni's English dub VA is actually giving it her all

[half wharf]

I gotta listen to that then

[wary lava]

I just found the new best anime in the entirety of animes

[dark jetty]

Which part is that

[lusty warren]

I'm pretty sure that's from part 3

[thick maple]

It's part 7-9, the art style is too good to be anything before

My guess is on part 9

[lusty warren]

The art style is actually closer to parts 2 and 3

Araki's style changes dramatically after part 3, so it's noticeable where a page is taken from by the character deaigns

[lusty warren]

Just looked it up
The page is from Stardust Crusaders, the stand was Ebony Devil, the one that turned its user into a doll

[thick maple]

Consider me surprised, I have zero recollection of such a thing (my JoJo knowledge is very rusty)

[queen cloud]

Newhus dropping bois

We got

[vestal sluice]

Chainsaw man became real when Power ran over a man with Kobeni's car

[lusty warren]

Making Kobeni's car more popular than Kobeni herself

[wary lava]

One Piece anime 1072 was great

[wary lantern]

There’s a leek in the boat

[queen cloud]

There's been a leek in the boat

Always here. Always watching

[vale onyx]

I honestly don’t know. I just shared it because the Nuragic civilization is very underrated.

[dark jetty]

That's true
Looks like an ant

[verbal adder]

[ancient garnet]

Whats the best anime on crunchyroll , open to suggestions

[thick maple]

There is no 'best' anime in general... going off of ratings is risky business, just ask/look for what you like (like genres or things similar to what you've liked before)

However, Haibane Renmei is peak isekai...

[compact glacier]

The recommend the quintuplets

[novel cove]

[gleaming lark]

bon chan is the best character

you cant convice me otherwise

[wary lava]

Anyone got hidden gem anime recommendations?

[thick maple]

God damn spoilers please delete them

You too, delete it

So damn annoying when people run their mouth and spoiler major parts of the show without any consideration for the fact that other people don't want to get spoiled (pardon my rage)

[thick maple]

Every time I find a hidden gem it somehow turns out to be very popular and just NOBODY told me about it for some odd reason

(Serial Experiments Lain)

[coarse remnant]

real

[pure sinew]

yo

[wary lava]

Any of you watch The ice guy and his cool female colleague, it's a very cute anime

[terse island]

Is that the full name of the anime?

[wary lava]

Yes

The ice guy and his Cool female colleague

[coarse remnant]

animes really love to put the entire synopsis in the title

[thick maple]

It's not really my thing, but I like that a cat is listed as a supporting character

[fair tusk]

Yooo anyone in here wanna go to the chill zone? [My friends are not online and im lonelyyy]

[thick maple]

This is off-topic, just use #general dawg there are way more people there...

[raven vigil]

Did you know there's a game for it? I'll find a video giving the run down just in case.

https://youtu.be/Rm47V1O78Ts

Spoiler free babbling about it

[thick maple]

Looks pretty rough 😰

[raven vigil]

Uh... very depresso espresso warning to anyone not aware of it

Yes, to Lain is to Rough Buddy

Confession: i haven't actually watched lain

[thick maple]

There's a one-shot as well but from my short amount of research I did I couldn't find it anywhere (not near where I live, at least)

[raven vigil]

I just never got around to it. Yes, shame on me

[thick maple]

No shame needed

[raven vigil]

Want me to look into it for you?

[thick maple]

Nahhh, let me have the surprise myself

Serial Experiments Lain isn't really something to be put on a bucket list just because of how wacky it is, although I have been pretty focused on only reading/watching what genre I'm currently interested in, so probably a little biased..

[raven vigil]

Found a Lain artbook

I watch where the motions take me

[thick maple]

I said don't... besides, it has spoilers

[raven vigil]

I can bing cherry pie of horror anime, and I can just watch a sweet slice sometimes. Just whatevers

[thick maple]

I've been pretty focused on (as my second division described it) character dramas recently

I dunno about that drama aspect though...

[raven vigil]

Sorry. I was just trying to find a source for when you are wanting it.

||i found the one-shot btw||

[thick maple]

Well it preferably would be physical after I've evaluated that it's also not junk, gotta give Yoshitoshi ABe some money somehow

But again, not now!

[raven vigil]

You got it.

[thick maple]

psychological horror is the best horror

I gotta get back to reading what I was reading though, I took a pause because there was an incredibly awkward moment

[raven vigil]

It doesn't look like it has an english physical copy btw.

[raven vigil]

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaas

[raven vigil]

Nooooooooooo

[thick maple]

Had to take a pause again, I hadn't actually finished the panel and when I continued reading it only repeated itself

Good grief! I'll live on!!

[raven vigil]

I'm not much for awkward situations

Like.
. Move on instantly please

[paper kelp]

@tacit orchid market

where do i go for poketwo

[lavish forge]

#pokétwo-commands, or #pokétwo

[lusty warren]

Anyone watch Gantz:o? I found it on Netflix and it's a bit of a trip

[half wharf]

and what's that

[dawn otter]

just started Bleach and I gotta say it's living up to it's title, literally just 2 episodes in and it's already really cool

[past anvil]

I had a hard time getting through the beginning my self but once you get to soul society holy crap the show gets addicting

[fringe shoal]

Make sure you skip filler especially the bount arc that shit was so bad

[past anvil]

Fr

[dawn otter]

I'm using 9anime because crunchyroll and aniwatch don't work for me

but like just this intro with Ichigo going against Inoue's older brother is pretty good by itself

[vestal sluice]

It's literally a bottle of bleach?!

Epic

[thick maple]

Don't recommend piracy websites...

Especially not YANAC

[dawn otter]

I meant title as in status, like how it's one of the big 3

[terse island]

Yes please don’t recommend piracy websites. It’s against the rules here due to discord TOS

[tropic ore]

HAMPTER

[vestal sluice]

That makes more sense but I thought it would be silly to say that

[next portal]

I didn’t really like jjk s1 is it worth it to catch up to watch the shibuya arc

[shadow forge]

Golden Kamuy has the best fight scenes

[shadow forge]

S1 and S2 are pretty much the same. If you disliked S1 because of the premise, you won't like S2

[next portal]

Ok. I just found s1 a little too boring and confusing. That being said, I only got to episode 16

[shadow forge]

Dang

Over half, still found it boring

[next portal]

Maybe I’ll try to rewatch and see if my opinion has changed. I watched it back in 2021 so maybe I might like it now

It has a really good idea/premise

[shadow forge]

Then power through it buddy

[thick maple]

I just tried to power through the A Silent Voice manga and it got me NOWHERE

I also love the idea/premise, it's just very unfulfilling with its characters (and also there are so many plot conveniences...)

I have serious doubts that you read A Silent Voice...

[terse island]

Idk if anyone has ever heard of this before, but it’s still my favorite anime to this day, I recommend squid girl for anyone who wants something cute to watch

[thick maple]

I've heard of it before, the Splatoon slice of life! (It has been alleged that the opening is awful)

[terse island]

I don’t remember the opening much but I do remember majority of the anime itself, it still holds a special place in my head :’) I was thinking about buying a second hand manga set even if it’s just in Japanese and some figs

[quartz vector]

Can you see the diffarance in these pictures

[past anvil]

Mb I didnt see anything like that in rules and I never recommend it I said if you use, cause idk what they use to watch anime

[thick maple]

It's in the Discord guidelines (which you should read tbh...)**
**

[wary lava]

I only know of Squid Girl through splatoon 1

[grand drift]

Sploingie

[charred solar]

There the same image man

[livid harbor]

why tf is dressrose 118 episodes

[bright sundial]

I'm new does anyone like attack on Titan

[tired karma]

in the manga it's only like 85 chapters

[patent pivot]

It’s worth it tho imo

[thick maple]

Dressrosa (even in the manga) is insanely stretched in the later half, it was such a hassle to get through

I think Oda bit off more than he could chew with that arc

[patent pivot]

It’s def stretched, but some of the fights and feats in it are incredible and it’s insanely important for the story

[thick maple]

No duh, it's not like anyone would ever skip an entire arc ahaha.... (I'm aware of the JoJo fans who skip entire seasons)

[limpid sandal]

Fueling yet another addiction

[limpid sandal]

I cancelled this because the store was shady as hell so I got the hi nu instead

[silk ember]

I got a dumb question

I started watching anime during the lockdown, so I'm relatively new

Buuuut, I feel like I've already out-weebed my veteran friends already

So like what is the average list length of someone who only started watching 3 years ago?

[thick maple]

To out-weeb is to out-nerd on the loose topic of anime; in order to out-nerd someone you must be able to passionately talk about subjects (whether direct or loosely related) for longer than your opponent.

[thick maple]

The range varies so greatly it's almost misinformative to use an average or median, it depends on the age, country, and condition (mental, physical, social, ethical, financial), it's just too much variation!! If I were to be arbitrary and throw a number I'd say 30-70 (it depends on the rhythm they've got)

[grave ice]

Is it weird I want to see Buggy from one piece do sick kick flips on a skateboard?

I don’t know why, but I think that’s be sick

https://tenor.com/view/buggy-gif-19915850

[thick maple]

You wouldn't call it new, but you would call it relatively new compared to the 40-60 years anime has been around

[half wharf]

This is what the manga is for 🙏

and then you can go back and watch the cool fights animated later on youtube or somethin

[patent pivot]

Or Skypeia haters (losers)

[patent pivot]

I’m on the 280s, started about a month ago and skipped all filler, which is like 40%

Maybe 2 months

It’s actually a great show, some super cool fights

[half wharf]

this is what the manga is for 🙏

[patent pivot]

I didn’t actually read one piece manga until I got caught up

[thick maple]

If I were to skip any arc it'd be FMI, such an astoundingly lame arc despite the obvious and numerous lore introductions. Not that I would skip an arc or anything...

[half wharf]

I started reading after the chopper stuff because I was dying with the anime's pacing

[patent pivot]

Well it’s because it has the most boring villain, fmi

Easily the worst villain but lore wise super important

[patent pivot]

Sometimes the pacing does get rough, and fights are def drawn out too much sometimes

[thick maple]

A lot of it was generic, really

[half wharf]

this is what the manga is for 🙏

[patent pivot]

Only important thing was ||shirahoshi being an ancient weapon and joyboy intro tbh||

As well as ||start of big mom as a villain ig||

[thick maple]

It's the arc that people who have a preconceived mediocre opinion on One Piece imagine the writing to be like

[patent pivot]

Def the worst op arc

Imo followed by TB, which is only good because of the character introduced

[thick maple]

Don't forget ||Luffy being able to hear the beasts and the prediction of Luffy destroying the FMI||
spoilers for FMI, One Piece

[patent pivot]

Oh true

I keep forgetting about the prophecy

[thick maple]

||Definitely not gonna come true though, this is where her prediction streak ends! 🙏 (I know the theory, don't worry)||

[patent pivot]

||there are so many theories tho. Like the one where he unites all the land and all the oceans become one ocean, the all blue||

[thick maple]

That's the theory I've decided to believe in

[patent pivot]

Lol ok

That would be a good one

And would mean amazing foreshadowing on odas part once again

||since Sanji says that the all blue has all species of fish||

[thick maple]

I mean not amazing foreshadowing, but good thinking ahead

[patent pivot]

Nah some of his foreshadowing has been crazy, looking back on it now

[half wharf]

||yeah the gear 5 stuff in skypiea was unreal||

[patent pivot]

EXACTLY

[thick maple]

So unreal...

Wait what??

[patent pivot]

Do you mean unreal as in fake or crazy

[half wharf]

crazy

[patent pivot]

Yeah same

[thick maple]

Ohhhh do you mean the ||campfire?||

[patent pivot]

That and the ||bell being similar to the drums in some ways||

[thick maple]

Sure

[patent pivot]

||like it’s a bell of liberation being rung is the assumption of a lot of people||

[thick maple]

spoilers for Wano, One Piece now

I think ||the bell isn't really special, because Luffy is quite the liberating man. You could say the rain from Arabasta was similar to the drums as well||

[patent pivot]

||it’s more the sound of the bell that matters||

[thick maple]

||There's also the sound of the rain falling, the drums of liberation are only one part of a great orchestra 👻||

[patent pivot]

I mean knowing Oda that’s entirely possible

[thick maple]

I won't try to defend that point though

[patent pivot]

||considering we’re only now getting close to elbaf and it’s been talked about for like 900+ chapters, I wouldn’t put it past him||

[thick maple]

Again, not really foreshadowing there. Very sad that ||Elbaf didn't turn out to be in the sky so Usopp could climb a beanstalk to go up to it (Jack and the Beanstalk), my heart was utterly in shambles after the theory I had held onto for years had been destroyed by one flashback...||

This is why I HATE flashbacks!!

[patent pivot]

Lol

[royal void]

what is happening here

[patent pivot]

One piece

[coral hornet]

I have just completed jjba part 5
It was AMAZING

[thorn meteor]

it is

[nova siren]

Zom 100 episode 5 was good

[terse island]

Is zom 100 actually good? Been hearing a lot about it. I do want to hear others opinions on it before I can form my own when i find time to watch it

[proper gust]

Mid

No good

Good

Final

[terse island]

So it only gets good around the ending?

Or is it too slow for you during the beginning

[thick maple]

It isn't even finished yet, I think they're playing around a bit like saying, "It's no good- nah I jest, it's good, final statement"

[terse island]

I see

[thick maple]

Uhhh allegedly the animation is good but the main character is silly

[terse island]

How silly from 1 to 10 👀 I love me a silly mc

[thick maple]

Silliness is in the eye of the beholder 👻 if you're strict on time I'd suggest just waiting for it to finish and seeing how the reviews stack up

[terse island]

[thick maple]

What?

Maybe by including a few more words which further help explain your circumstance...**
**

Now, rephrase it!

[thick maple]

What do you mean, "slacked on?" (I hate that you have to put punctuation or a comma at the end of a quote by the way)

That also doesn't help 😭 were/are you watching every Summer anime or something?!

You can always watch it later... Zom 100 is only half-way complete (assuming 12 episodes) as well

[plain oasis]

Chainsaw man

[silk ember]

Bruh crunchyroll said they were gonna release all 3 final episodes of oreimo today

It's literally 2 am and nothing

[nova siren]

What the hell is an oreimo

[rapid quartz]

Same 🤨🤨

[plain oasis]

Idk

[thick maple]

Why didn't you mark this as a spoiler for Chainsaw Man**
**

That bad ay?

Oh yeah @wary lava I have a deeply personal question to ask, do you regret finishing Sagrada Reset?

Like does it ever go from fun bad to boring bad?

[thick maple]

Yeah that's swell enough, you doubt yourself too much! I just recommended my second division (recommendations department) Sagrada Reset as a bad anime, wasn't sure if it dipped off into lameness later on or not (since I didn't finish it). I should probably note to him that he probably shouldn't watch the entire thing..

[thick maple]

The issue is that the second division has that same mentality 😰

[silk ember]

All good boys they conveniently forgot to mention that it would release at 1 pm and not 12:01 am

[silk ember]

Frick balls

It's 1 pm jst

Which is 9 pm for us

[rocky raven]

I came here for knowledge, some people said that Pokémon isn’t an anime, what do you guys think?

[patent pivot]

Japanese animation

Is an anime

[half wharf]

such a factual statement 🙏 ||after getting depressed from episode 4, episode 5 was so hype with the wacky shark||

wait woops I responded to the wrong person

oh well

@nova siren that response was directed towards you about episode 5. Sorry for the ping fiche

[thick maple]

Pokèmon is an anime without a doubt, its dub is about as popular as the original though

[rocky raven]

THATS WHAT IM SAYING!!!!

[half wharf]

oh yeah I dunno if anyone has said this already but the scott pilgrim anime trailer is out 🙏

[median mango]

it's more cartoony I guess

and also you should watch the live action movie sometime. It's actually really good no cap no kizzy

and it's got michael cera 🙏

Mines a real grade

[half wharf]

holy moly

well have fun making it

[limpid sandal]

For comparison

I will, thanks

[compact glacier]

Nice

[nova siren]

Woah is that power rangers 🤑 it must be new then🤑

[compact glacier]

That not power rangers

[fringe shoal]

Today's bleach episode might've been the best tybw arc episode so far

[sleek copper]

How broken is berserk? I've been thinking of watching it..

[thick maple]

What do you mean by broken?

[fringe shoal]

Don't watch it it's better to read it but it's quite fucked up

[thick maple]

Berserk is about as gritty as it gets (for worse or for worse)

[fringe shoal]

Yeah berserk is really fucking dark buts it's not as fucked up like an anime I will not name because it's better less people know about it

[thick maple]

It's not as messed up as the 2016 adaptation I imagine

[fringe shoal]

I mean in terms of what happens in the story

The 2016 adaptation is an abomination that should cease to exist

The original adaptation isn't too bad but it's very outdated and ends at the eclipse I believe

[dense karma]

This hurts me on many mental and physical levels

[earnest narwhal]

Two things: 1) this is essentially a question of "which of these animes do you want to be erased" and 2) the one on the far left

It isn't even romance it's just an abomination

Ooh I know it's simple but I like that vignette

This man had no self regard for his well being.
He was fucking SET on beating Takumi.

Mereoleona Vermillion

What do you mean?🤨

Mereoleona Vermillion is waifu material.
There I said it.

[thick maple]

I also got a ghost ping, I don't care though.... although, if I'm being honest, it absolutely breaks my heart that someone would do such a thing to me...

[thick maple]

I like the name Vermillion so sure it must be true

my moms is a pretty big anime fan, got any suggestions?

[blissful granite]

The funny book has arrived

[flint heath]

:0 such a good book :3

[thick maple]

I don't understand the people who just ask

[thick maple]

I've been considering reading it, despite how off-putting it may seem

I clearly gotta do more research into it....

[thick maple]

"Hey what is your guy's favorite anime?" "Demon Slayer" and RARELY you'll get a response of "cool" or "same".
I also disagree with the use of it as an opener because it's only a one time use and it's not too interesting (similar to something like "How's your day" to a stranger), I mean it can lead to conversation or whatever but it's usually white noise...

Yeah and I'd say it doesn't work so well

"What's your least favorite trope and why" ❤️

[cobalt pelican]

Nevermind I found it

Hot take, who you guys think would win in a fight, Yujiro Hamna or Samurai Jack?

[thick maple]

Noooooooo

Sure that starts a conversation but it's just louder white noiseeee

[cobalt pelican]

Shit I’m dumb

Oh

[thick maple]

woahhhh

You didn't watch the Powerpuff Girls??

[cobalt pelican]

Damn not even samurai Jack?

[thick maple]

@cobalt pelican there is a character limit and if you pass it you get marked as spam, watch out

[cobalt pelican]

Long ago in a distant land, I Aku the shape-shifting master of darkness unleashed an unSPEAKABLE EVIL!! But foolish samurai wielding a magic sword stepped forth to oppose me…Before the final blow was struck I tore open a portal in time and plunged him into the future where my evil is law! Now the fool seeks to return to the past and undo the future that is Aku….

Is the intro

To jog ya memory if you perhaps know it

[thick maple]

I think the appearance is probably more recognisable...

[cobalt pelican]

Well

[thick maple]

But hey!! Thats not anime!!

[cobalt pelican]

OH NO

[fringe shoal]

It definitely is a spoiler just without a lot of context

Pretty good just vibing. How about yourself?

Nice

[south cipher]

This doesnt spoil anything if u dont know the context though this time

It is NOT my fault all the cool pannels r like this

Mm mm ill take that into consideration maybe next time

[thick maple]

I would help you explain to them why it's mean to spoil things, but I already blocked them meaning I've already tried...

After one quick reveal, @south cipher randomly posting entire panels from manga does not fall under fair use, it's copyright infringement (against #rules❗)

Copyright is so poggers for preventing spoilers honestly

[outer zenith]

Honestly I just finished reading oshi no ko and it's not tryna spoil anything but good

I don't know why I said not tryna spoil anything by saying it's good

[thick maple]

No, that is not technically spoiling it

To spoil is to harm the true experience, how ever slight. Now, a bunch of people saying it's good or bad can harm the experience for one person simply due to grudges or whatever, but generally it does not

It's similar to that one fictional guy you don't like finishing a series (I don't wanna align with him and watch it too!!) Hell, even a horoscope could spoil something for you! This is why you gotta draw lines for these things... lest you start badging your friend for yawning when you were thinking about a show (he was trying to spoil it by saying it's boring!!)

[half wharf]

That's awesome

I can now say that because I watched one gundam movie

[hollow summit]

What if...

I wear deodorant at a anime convention

You'd be spared

Yeah, One Piece

Let's just say that shit fire 🔥

[ivory horizon]

Bro thinks he's the Attack Titan

[obsidian imp]

Just started binge watching a couple highly recommended anime series. Any recommendations that happen to be free on Crunchyroll?

So far I've watched Attack On Titan, Chainsaw Man, and Spy x Family, and I'm starting JoJo's

[outer hull]

"Demon Slayer" and "Horimiya: The Missing Pieces" are pretty good animes in my opinion. I just don't know if they're free on Crunchyroll :/

[obsidian imp]

I've already seen Demon Slayer, but I'll check out the other one since it is free

[twin slate]

should i be concerned

Let's go Sukuna finally woke up from being tucked in my papa gojo and jumped this man 3 v 1

[tawny haven]

I know no one asked but i am going to say this now

A certain scientific railgun is a terrible anime and better manga

[thick maple]

I mean if it's terrible then the bar is very low for the manga to be better

[tawny haven]

the anime adds in more fanservice than necessary while the manga gets straight into the action

[dapper osprey]

sup

vinland saga s2 is way better than the first

[tawdry glen]

average lack of perms

[frozen flame]

Anyone here like Fist of the North Star?

[lusty warren]

I appreciate the feel of it, but I've never watched a full episode

[odd marten]

I was watching the most recent ylyl and accidentally said "Is that Deku from One Piece?". I immediately burst into laughter upon the realization of my mistake.

[fluid jacinth]

the one piece isn't real

[whole cave]

I simultaneously hate and love beserk

[thick maple]

Quite a silly conundrum, however I would like to comment on how INSANELY cringy that video was, like I was of course chuckling along but HOLY CATS it's absurd how unbearable that voice is

[thick maple]

Nahh man we must not've seen the same clip

[thick maple]

Maybe it's because you're so used to awful dubulations?

[gritty flame]

4kids dub moment

ok but fr shitty dubs are either just not bad enough to be entertaining at all like stale bread, or so bad it loops around to becoming ironically enjoyable again

[thick maple]

Maybe it's because you're good at overlooking fan service then?

Ermmm cuz the skills cross over

Not wanting to ever hear it again sounds unbearable to me...

You can not bear within reason

So you're a tough guy, ay?

What's your favorite anime? 😀

Guilty! :3

luffy dies in episode 2

[winter linden]

does anyone know what anime this is

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/WWI1Uf_lXFg

[nova siren]

Charlotte i think idk

[wary lava]

nobody here talks about the pokemon anime at this time

or at least in depth

cause im sure as hell that I don't see anything about pokemon horizons here

(exclusively in this channel i mean)

[wary lava]

||currently liko/roy/rising volt tacklers are in galar about to do a cooking competition||

||it was somewhat a backstory episode, cause one of the characters was the main point of the episode||

||was still pretty funny and cute at the same time||

[winged prawn]

THE ONE PIEEEEEECE

THE ONE PIECE IS REEEEEEEEAAAAAALLLLL

[thick maple]

Yeah that's Charlotte, it's unspectacular with an even worse ending

[thick maple]

There are 1230 episodes

Although I have wanted to rewatch a season some day, I've mostly just stuck with the movies

[fluid jacinth]

can we get much higher

so high

[outer zenith]

Imagine it wasn't they ruined 4 years of my life

If it wasn't

[thick maple]

It's about the journey, not the destination

[outer zenith]

Well I mean luffy did well you know get whatever he got

I'm not even gonna say anything anymore

Mr stawhat boi

[twilit lintel]

I’m currently watching one piece

Guess which arc

[thick maple]

As a side note I highly recommend trying the manga instead just because of the pacing and magic of imagination... but anyways my guess is Little Garden(? I forget if that's the name)

[lofty dew]

overflow

[queen shell]

Neon genesis evangelion is so fucking cool
it would be more cool if i didnt have to nearly cry about how confusing the lore is

[light wagon]

Yo I just thought about luffys strength
Spoilers for wano

||Everyone says that luffy gear 5 was barely enough to defeat a weak kaido, but he only used his conquerors haki||

||with all three types of haki he could defeat kaido and probably big mom at full power||

||not that it's being underestimated but not many people think about the fact that he probably is 3 times stronger at his peak||

[thick maple]

Woah, he would be stronger if he was stronger?! 🤯

[light wagon]

I just got to the current episode of one piece

So fire tbh

[thick maple]

Roughly, the first half of Wano was my favorite part of One Piece

I think once it starts desolving into a fight-fest it gets a bit tiresome

[light wagon]

The fighting is what I like

[thick maple]

There can be fun fights, but they are pretty few and far between for me... I think that's probably because as a base-line I don't like that kind of action

[twilit lintel]

To whoever tried to answer the question correctly, it was wrong

[light wagon]

What

[patent pivot]

Congratulations

We’re about to get to some great stuff in the current fight

[versed spire]

Anybody got a good anime to recommend me

[thick maple]

What are you looking for or otherwsie what are you not looking for?

[versed spire]

Anything that isn't really cringy

[thick maple]

Very unpopular demand...

[fringe shoal]

Watch vinland saga

[thick maple]

Ehh

Flashbacks are a pretty cringe concept

[versed spire]

Ima check that anime out

[patent pivot]

What a top tier recommendation

[fringe shoal]

Vinland saga is peak modern anime in my opinion

[patent pivot]

So true

[thick maple]

However Midland Saga rolls off the tongue better

[versed spire]

Welp bye

[thick maple]

I'm gonna miss that guy 😔

[patent pivot]

Have you watched it?

Both seasons

[thick maple]

I read 10 chapters then paused it because I'm looking for more emotional junk

[runic sleet]

the only anime ive ever watched is pokemon! rest is m-M-MID

[patent pivot]

You didn’t get to the emotional part then

That’s like all it is honestly. There’s a lot of fighting at first, but the authors whole thing is how much he hates fighting

[thick maple]

There's no reason to fight if nobody has any enemies 🤷

If my current two slated things I'm reading don't work out then I'll be getting back to Midland Saga or Witch Hat Atelier (I've paused two for later during this search)

[patent pivot]

Exactly the point

[twilit lintel]

If you’re wondering which arc it was, it was Skypia

[thick maple]

That actually was my real guess but I didn't want to say it because it's a bit of a spoiler

[wary lava]

Neat

[versed spire]

Lol

[ivory horizon]

Y'all know what time it is

[outer hull]

That ain't Attack on Titan, that's Onslaught Upon Behemoth

[rich sand]

I fear the mha fandom

[tawny haven]

its ok, they really love to talk in that annoying voice so just wear ear plugs

[ebon zephyr]

nope

[thick maple]

Nah...

At this point I've gotten so good at filtering animanga that I'm spooked whenever I'm watching a western show/movie, a recent example being Groundhog Day (I hate the romance in that movie). Who would've thought that anime was the more child-friendly medium...

But I guess you could also blame fact that I have never been a big movie watcher, and the only show I've finished is Doctor Who (maybe soon to be joined by Breaking Bad??)

[tepid falcon]

holy fuck

[brisk spear]

So guys, you know Beerus from DB Super? Well, remember that random planet with the pig-looking dudes? So Beerus complained that their food was too greasy and cut their planet in half over it. However, he then came to Earth and loved Earth pizza. Huh?

[thick maple]

Dragon Ball Super is an anime, correct? Therefore, all of the food on Earth is made perfectly!

[brisk spear]

Why just on Earth? Well, I guess for plot reasons

[thick maple]

Because we can't go supporting alien propaganda now can we?

[brisk spear]

But in universe, think of how ridiculously greasy that food would have to be for Beerus to love pizza but destroy a planet over that.

[thick maple]

Honestly I think you've just been getting the wrong pizza... my local pizza joint isn't too greasy

[brisk spear]

Are you American?

[thick maple]

no I'm Jewish

[brisk spear]

Do you live in the USA is what I'm asking

Because if not, that kinda explains some things

[thick maple]

Yes!

[brisk spear]

Then how is your pizza not so overwhelmingly greasy that it (almost) messes the whole thing up?

[thick maple]

Because we don't go to some crummy pizza joint...

[brisk spear]

Understandable

[thick maple]

Try somewhere else if you're having issues! 😊

[wise rock]

Yo

Who else watched Blood Blockade Battleground

[brisk spear]

So, if Saitama can kill anyone with one punch, what would happen if he punched himself?

[thick maple]

That isn't how his power works...

[brisk spear]

It's a joke

[sudden cosmos]

Does anyone know where I can watch jjk season 2 for free, it’s premium on Crunchyroll 😭

[thick maple]

Sorry, but if you don't want to fork over the cash for legitimately licensed sources then there really is no other way to watch it... 😔

[sudden cosmos]

I never said legitimate…

[thick maple]

Thankfully, viewing illegitimately licensed content like so is impossible and illegal, as search engines will promptly ignore any website which hosts such material without fail and erm uh america copyright laws or smthn...

[fringe shoal]

We can't give out pirating sites and such it's against the rules good luck to you I guess

[sudden cosmos]

oh, ok.

[nova siren]

I just d’med him a website so take that💩

Lil late tho

[nova siren]

grrr buddy that is NOT a valid opinion

[thick bluff]

Who would win truck kun or mr bean

[dawn otter]

That's actually a hard question to answer

[thick maple]

The truck would win at first, but Mr. Bean would fall into a silly little time loop to save himself from it

So, instead of the truck taking him to another world, it would send Mr. Bean back in time

or maybe he might be sent forward in time to crack a joke at the future... before being tracked down by some future teddy bear to send him back or something...

[queen shell]

I love how evangelion is getting really popular because of it being on netflix now

[thick maple]

Decades, even

[mighty wigeon]

e

[dark garden]

Guys is jujutsu Kaisen any good

I’m thinking of watching it

[fringe shoal]

In my opinion it's really fucking good

One of my personal favorites

[dark garden]

I’ll try it tomorrow

[dark garden]

Yeah I’ve never watched any

[gritty raft]

yess

[thick maple]

Switch this isn't like you!! What happened to "there is good in everything, you just have to find it"?! You could've been such a pedantic fella in this scenario, yet you failed your lineage...

Not in the mood to be pedantic? Blasphemy...
Key note: this is not an attack on Switch, he is not typically pedantic...

[thick maple]

You go on and on about something that doesn't really matter. Like if you say "it's alright" and someone replies "ermmm alright means all right, so do you think it's perfect? Well, nothing can be perfect so..."

Pedanticality (I made this word up) is a cruel thing

[dense salmon]

I’d summarize it as monster hunter but for cursed relics and demons

I loved it personally

[half wharf]

yessir

peak shonen imo

[dawn otter]

I honestly got super bored of jjk on the second last episode and ended up skipping most of the last one, don't remember why (season 1 btw)

[thick bluff]

Who would win truck kun or silly billy

[eager sinew]

Silly billy

[next portal]

Jjk 0 was absolutely awesome

[thick bluff]

Who would win truck kun or jotaro joestar

[dense salmon]

Before stand manifestation the truck would win, After stand manifestation jotaro would total the truck

[thick bluff]

Elaborate

[dense salmon]

Jotaro only gains star platinum right when we first meet him, He wasn’t a stand user before then

[thick bluff]

Ok

[dense salmon]

And we see him literally use his stand to punch a truck and make it flip over entirely

So no stand = Pancake

[thick bluff]

True but that was road da roller not a truck kun the isikai warrior

[thick maple]

Two things: 1) you peaked at Mr. Bean and even that wasn't that good, quit it!! 2) truck-kun has stronger plot power

It's a fight of who has stronger plot armor

Truck-kun may isekai you, but if your life revolves around time travel there's a good chance that some way or another you're gonna be saved -- even if it does take 103 iterations

It's a sillier form of powerscaling but for plot armor specifically!

Who is more likely to be a tsundere? Saitama or Goku?

[thick bluff]

You don’t understand truck kun do you

You see he is not just a isikai warrior but also a destroyer of families a taker of friends and he doesn’t show himself until to late he takes multiple forms he is a ambulance able to crush skulls of Stan users or a semi truck going 70 kph at a 5 year old daughters family he’s always there always watching for when you least expect him he arrives

[wary lava]

Rest in Peace Switch

[dense salmon]

I retract what I said earlier about jotaro winning

Truck-Kun wins even if he has a stand

[thick bluff]

Truck kun wins flawless victory

[brisk spear]

Kira had his stand, and I'm assuming Truck kun gets scaled to Ambulance san

[dense salmon]

I agree truck-kun is very very much the superior organism

[thick bluff]

Wile this is true ambulance Chan is still a long distance crossing

Causing her to become a 10th of power of truck kun

[magic turtle]

what's the best anime you've watched
