[stable herald]

Ahh yes this part, very wholesome

what anime?

am on mobile, cant translate

[wicked sluice]

kaguya sama movie

[stable herald]

souka

tqvm

[slender skiff]

Another victim of the cloverworks seasonal rush

Starts good, ends rather questionably
Quality died due to horimiya and tpn 2 airing at the same time

It's Ishigami's line to Iino after the Christmas party went wrong

[wicked sluice]

so ppl in #al-general can post lewds but mentioning a boner is not allowed

👍

[slender skiff]

1. No, they are not allowed to post lewds (assuming those even fall afoul of the rules)
2. Not sure what those 2 have to do with each other

[wicked sluice]

ur mom

[slender skiff]

How original

[grizzled acorn]

he got you good, and you're crying now

[slender skiff]

The only thing he got good was a warn

[wicked sluice]

I will put lego in ur slippers

[faint crag]

[trim swan]

[thorn briar]

[slender skiff]

This is just getting pitiful to watch honestly

[thorn briar]

I never expected it but fmab is actually good

[faint crag]

no way

[slender skiff]

I like how Shiro, whom we never convinced, watched FMAB before yami

Sasuga shiro

[thorn briar]

But i didn't finish it yet

It has that feeling that when u want to watch one episode u ended up watching more

And i think they have everything i want in an anime

Something like mahouka and d.gray-man

[faint crag]

FMAB was a series that geniunelly made me surprised like
"wait, so, it's actually possible to make a 64 episodes long shounen anime and don't have fillers?? Like, just a normal story from start to finish???"

[thorn briar]

It doesn't have fillers

I remember there was a time when i started watching anime i only wanted animes that has blood on them but now i want the ones that would make me hyped and satisfied to the end

[stable herald]

i like it when milfs in anime/manga are also want a piece of mc

[thorn briar]

I read that as a piece of meat

[last quiver]

Reminds me of a manga I'm reading where the milf is the love interest

[stable herald]

Mc could make that one japanese soup

[stable herald]

share

do u perhaps meant, musume janakute?

[last quiver]

Yup that

[slender skiff]

Is it just me or do these 2 look incredibly similar

[trim swan]

it's just you

[silver robin]

I know where the bottom one is from

[slender skiff]

Honestly, it's one of the few series I actually can't pick who I prefer

Both Mashiro and Iroha are

[silver robin]

I like iroha more

[slender skiff]

I mean

Well

I do usually like the teasing kouhai trend more

But Mashiro stonks

[silver robin]

I was an editor for a wn

[slender skiff]

And there's technically a third girl too but let's not account for that

[silver robin]

Where mc name was mashiro but it was a teasing kouhai

[slender skiff]

On a side note

[silver robin]

the teacher

[slender skiff]

Hata is getting carried away

[slender skiff]

||Her sister actually||

By the way when I say carried away

Now even Isumi has appeared now

Hina my beloved
When will thou appear

I swear at this rate, even the childhood friend will appear first

[inner sphinx]

[slender skiff]

Wait a guy named Mashiro?

Unless you mean a teasing guy

[silver robin]

I meant fmc

[slender skiff]

A teasing guy sounds more like a brat tbh

[silver robin]

Smh stop assuming gender

[slender skiff]

A brat as in a immature guy

Rather than anything else

Yeah we see it in real life attention seeking young boys

And yeah it's rare in anime

But I feel like it doesn't work as a result?

[silver robin]

It was called something like watashi no senpai, 100ko shiranai koto

Or something

Very wholesome

There's a manga version of it as well but its unfinished (at least from what i saw a while back)

[slender skiff]

I have a lot of wholesome

And in terms of WN, gimai takes first anyways

[silver robin]

otonari no tenshi

[slender skiff]

I genuinely prefer gimai after a certain point

Except of course, have to depend on fan TLs hard

Not to mention the artist is godly

[silver robin]

hitenkei

[slender skiff]

That's the cover for next vol apparently

[silver robin]

Most of his work is r18 though

[slender skiff]

Background work is excellent too

I use one of hiten's pics as my wallpaper too

[silver robin]

I only found out about gimai cause the people in my tl group were hitenkei fans

[slender skiff]

I await the anime

[silver robin]

same

[slender skiff]

O

Today (22nd) is the bday of rimuru's VA

Wait seriously she's only 25? Good lord

[silver robin]

SE Asia

[silver robin]

That happens yes

[slender skiff]

Sam you just excluded Japan and China and Korea and Australia and New Zealand

[silver robin]

Oh right

Should also mention Oceania

[slender skiff]

Mood

[echo quiver]

rimuru confirmed girl

[thorn briar]

[solid nebula]

As a Kiwi, my god

He really did

[slender skiff]

[solid nebula]

What are ya surprised about

[slender skiff]

Baka sam

[solid nebula]

Thought I was pretty explicit I was from Oceania

The forgotten region

[slender skiff]

I forget far more important things than that

Like the fact I needed to change sheets
And it's been a month since I should have done so

[solid nebula]

I forgot when I even changed sheets

[slender skiff]

Exactly

On a side note

I am insanely confused

[solid nebula]

Actually very impressive editing

[grizzled acorn]

i love the rental girlfriend author

never read or watched it, but mans is such a visionary

[keen ledge]

Can i have some opinions on "Otonari no Tenshi-sama" light novel
Also any suggestions for manga similar to Koisuru Kiseichuu and Sachiiro no One Room

[thorny nest]

faria is alive?

[keen ledge]

no, im dead

[thorny nest]

I watched a rental girlfriend recap vid yesterday so when's s2?

[silver robin]

very wholesome diabetes

starts off a bit slow but its very wholesome diabetes

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-45skwnPXo8

[solemn pollen]

New Gigguk just dropped

[silver robin]

why yes

see link above

[thorny nest]

@silver robin "what the dog doin?"

[silver robin]

that line just came up 2 seconds after i saw this lmao

also renai flops is unironically funny please watch

[thorny nest]

dunno I think akiba maid war might be fun

[silver robin]

thats also fun

watch both like me

[thorny nest]

[silver robin]

oh theres a pun in akiba maid sensou

instead of writing it メイド (maid, traditional western maid definition), they wrote it as

[thorny nest]

[silver robin]

show is pretty good though

finally a PA works original that doesn't suck ass

its been a hot minute since we got one

[thorn briar]

[thorn briar]

I just watched it

[thorny nest]

baka shiro

[thorn briar]

Baka flat

I hear dazai from bsd , source: FMAB

[ivory mauve]

Medic?

[slender skiff]

Super wholesome and diabetes to say the least
Only issue is that it's pretty slow, and a handful of western audiences have issue with how unconfident and wimpy the MC can be (though frankly, the lack of confidence is explained, and he's certainly not as wimpy as people say it is)

It's more of he's scared that going further would ruin the relationship

Which is something some of us definitely find relatable

[thorn briar]

I just noticed that i skipped an episode

I only watched the beginning and felt something was wrong

Why he looks like jack from Pandora hearts now , source: fmab

[echo quiver]

i was going to say that guy looks a bit like edward

[thorn briar]

The 2nd ending for fmab sounds familiar

[thorn briar]

It's him

[thorn briar]

[grizzled acorn]

Any to your eternity watchers?

[silver robin]

hunter x hunter manga is back

also im catching up on tonikawa and they mentioned ao no hako

blue box is great highly recommend please go read

im like 60 chapters behind on it though

wtf they mentioned another shonen jump manga

this one is on hiatus cause author got sick unfortunately but it was also good

[unkempt briar]

A shounen series mentioning other shounen series???? Truly never been done before!!!@!

but yeah even grimdark shounens like jjk do it, feel like it’s the shounen thing to do nowadays

[silver robin]

yea

but he mentioned based series

so its even better

[slender skiff]

Haven't they mentioned KNY a lot of times

[flat cedar]

dont fall for this propoganda

AHHHH

SO its the Kingsman movie

[echo quiver]

weird, i dont remember this song in bocchi

[stable herald]

Holy shit

it can't be that ba-

ah, so it's not just a myth. there's actually groups of people doing it

[inner sphinx]

[ivory mauve]

What the hell, this is so out of character for her.

Operation: kill Green keeper is a go

[grizzled acorn]

you can tell by looking at the stats for shows and seeing a giant, disproportionate amount of 1/10s

[thorn briar]

The new chainsawman episode was disgusting

I had to mute the voice and skip some scenes

[echo quiver]

im just here to enjoy power

[thorn briar]

I want makima

[grizzled acorn]

it wasnt that bad

but i did have to pause and skip during the past few gundam episodes

[thorn briar]

The ||throwing up part was ||

[grizzled acorn]

eh. not really.

[thorn briar]

The problem is that i was eating when i watched it

[grizzled acorn]

so was I lol

[thorn briar]

[grizzled acorn]

i was having a good lunch, cant say that ruined it

[thorn briar]

I had to skip that part , cause i felt like it would ruin it for me

[grizzled acorn]

it was a short scene, while it is conceptually disgusting and would in real life be very gross; but when watching it in anime it doesnt even remotely phase me

[echo quiver]

how does denji simultaneously have ||a harem|| and at the same time, not have ||a harem||

[thorn briar]

Wednesday is eminence in shadow episode right

[grizzled acorn]

only scenes i ever feel the need to pause or skip is cringe and second-hand embarrassing ones

[thorn briar]

I never expected it to happen in the episode and i don't like to see it irl

[grizzled acorn]

irl, if it wasnt me id stop and laugh

if it was me, day over.

[faint crag]

Just pause it until you finish eating then?

[echo quiver]

well then, for

for chainsaw man

||i just got to the part yall were talking about oh god i hate this||

[grizzled acorn]

its literally not that bad. i dont get it

[thorn briar]

I skipped the parts so i was okay

[echo quiver]

i just finished eating like 5 minutes ago

i dont need to see this

[grizzled acorn]

yall the type to get horrified by someone losing an arm in a shounen.

[faint crag]

Why are literally all of you eating while watching anine???

[grizzled acorn]

i was hungry bro.

[echo quiver]

i just got off work so im hungry and want to catch up on anime

[grizzled acorn]

when im eating at home, anime is on. thats how it is

[thorn briar]

it's more fun

Watch and eat

[faint crag]

I see how that worked out for you

[grizzled acorn]

apparently not for you

[faint crag]

[grizzled acorn]

res did you watch the chainsaw man episode?

[faint crag]

Not yet

[grizzled acorn]

i see

[thorn briar]

I wouldn't

[grizzled acorn]

idk if im some jaded asshole, but i personally cannot find the particular scene to be so grotesque that i had to even hesitate eating

[faint crag]

I mean it's kinda the point, it is a pretty over the top series

But ye, I generally don't care either

[thorn briar]

The only throwing up scenes in anime i could handle were all in gintama

[grizzled acorn]

lmao

[faint crag]

https://tenor.com/view/aqua-konosuba-vomit-gif-8798310

[grizzled acorn]

res please, im trying to eat man

[thorn briar]

Aqua

[faint crag]

[thorn briar]

It's funny that they made it rainbow colour

[echo quiver]

i like rainbows

[thorn briar]

Same

[echo quiver]

i like to wonder if it's canon or not whenever i see it

[thorn briar]

But i love rain more

[echo quiver]

wait, that's new. never saw this type of subtitles before (chainsaw man)

i like that crunchyroll is innovating

[thorn briar]

Wait aqua u became bbob too

[echo quiver]

i kept getting attacked by rapid bbobs

no one ever vaccinates their bbobs

[thorn briar]

[echo quiver]

oh wait, it's ||a rainbow in the credits||

nice

[thorn briar]

I only know Schobbob from those people with bbob in thier names

[echo quiver]

in other news, ive been trying to get through naruto... again...

but why in the world are there ||over 100 sequential filler episodes||

no wonder this shit takes forever to watch

oh, it's more like 77

still, i hate this

[grizzled acorn]

regular naruto, the last 77 episodes are all filler, skip all of it

[thorn briar]

I used to like naruto but , ||i spoiled my self while i was searching about my fave characters and i decided that i won't watch it||

[grizzled acorn]

i think theres also a little filler sprinkled in

[echo quiver]

wait, LAST?

you mean there's NOTHING after this?

[grizzled acorn]

lemme check

[echo quiver]

oh my god. it ends on 220

[grizzled acorn]

yes, once you hit the filler wall its all filler

[echo quiver]

why did i watch like 70 filler episodes

god damn

[grizzled acorn]

yeah 143-219

all filler

220 isnt

[echo quiver]

and here i thought there were like 100 wonderful canon episodes following this

pfffft

[grizzled acorn]

220 is mostly filler though

[echo quiver]

well, that was a waste of 20 hours

[grizzled acorn]

sorry

[echo quiver]

dont apologize. you didn't animate naruto

[grizzled acorn]

use a filler guide for shippuden if you wanna watch it. i didnt. very unwise

[echo quiver]

unless you did, then i have a few words to say to you

[grizzled acorn]

i did not

its not the animators fault either tho, its whoever decided to write two billion filer episodes back to back

[echo quiver]

bleh. but i only have 11 more of this pain to go. screw it. ill finish it and never watch original naruto again

[grizzled acorn]

do not

thats almost an entire good normal show

11 filler episodes of naruto, or season 1 of mushoku tensei. choose wisely

[echo quiver]

your rational argument cannot win against my ocd

[grizzled acorn]

we've lost him

[echo quiver]

SOON

[grizzled acorn]

just lie and say you watched 220

you'll forget the truth later

[echo quiver]

that's also true, but i wont be able to sleep tonight

[grizzled acorn]

change the rating then get someone to knock you out with a frying pan

or you can take the boring route and take melatonin or something idk

[echo quiver]

if i do that, i have a 50% chance to get isekaid too

[grizzled acorn]

worth it

i'm a gambling man, personally

[slender skiff]

Hard to say honestly
They're essentially completely different genres

[thorn briar]

Did ||roy just do this ||

[slender skiff]

It's better to think of bisque doll as a cosplay series with romcom elements

[grizzled acorn]

fmab W

[slender skiff]

Horimiya is best thought of a sol with romcom elements

[solemn pollen]

also good fan service

[thorn briar]

What W

[slender skiff]

Horimiya leaves very heavily into sol, more than most romcoms with sol elements

Because horimiya is quite literally, a slice of a (sort of) normal couple
And their friends

In fact a lot of time is spent on the friends

Hard to compare them fairly

Bisque appears to be a romcom, with a very strong female lead and well, loads of fan service

But it's especially clear in the manga that the romance is the bit on the side, not the cosplay

[thorn briar]

The 1st time i heard about sol , i thought it will be slice of life like a slice of a cake but i was mistaken

[slender skiff]

What the heck would a slice of cake have been

[thorn briar]

It's just like they just sliced it so i was thinking it meant that way

[grizzled acorn]

they did slice it up

respectively

[faint crag]

I mean that's exactly the point?

[thorn briar]

I didn't know

[slender skiff]

The "slice" in sol comes from

[faint crag]

you get a "slice of someones life"

[slender skiff]

^

The usage of slice simply originates from a slice of cake or pie

But in this case, the cake is someone's life

As Marie Antoinette so found out the hard way

[thorn briar]

I just made guess when i was in high school when i 1st heard about it and never thought it would be correct

[slender skiff]

[grizzled acorn]

is the guillotine the cake cutter now?

[faint crag]

It leans so much into sol that when I was made to read it, I dropped it with review that "there's literally nothing happening"

[slender skiff]

The speed of the guillotine would just smash the cake rather than cut it

[faint crag]

it's like those cakes made to be extremely realistic objects, except the object is the queen of france

[grizzled acorn]

what if we got, like, a slow falling guillotines

[faint crag]

or whoever she was

[grizzled acorn]

yeah thats right

fun fact, her husband was a bitch.

[thorn briar]

She shouldn't have told them to eat biscuits

[grizzled acorn]

absolute L ruler

[faint crag]

I mean he was french
L is implied

[grizzled acorn]

Louis XVI was shit

[slender skiff]

Obligatory

[grizzled acorn]

nah if you're Louis XIV or Richelieue youre a little bit of a W

[slender skiff]

https://anilist.co/manga/113399/Tearmoon-Teikoku-Monogatari-Dantoudai-kara-Hajimaru-Hime-no-Tensei-Gyakuten-Story/

Read this

[thorn briar]

Returning back in time

I think i read 3 manhwas with the similar concept

[slender skiff]

This one is more hysterical than anything

Mia is a mood

[faint crag]

Oh btw Ender
Almost done with the Part 3 Vol 4

There's too much ||"political intriguing" brewing for my taste||
Hope we can go back to just Myne doing dumb shit soon.

[slender skiff]

It only gets worse
Though I guess when she heads to school, her dumb shit begins with earnest

And heads to school is like

After part 3 v5

[faint crag]

Yea I've read parts names
If it's only 1 volume I can survive it I guess

I dunno, Bookworm is a very weird series
I do enjoy reading it
But I have absolutely nothing to say about it

[slender skiff]

It's hard to explain it

[faint crag]

Well it's not true, I kinda do, but it's about how inconsistent and overly safe it is in its own message, or lack thereof.

Like it sorta has things to say, but also doesn't really want to commit beyond just "a silly story about a girl doing silly things" which is fine

It's enjoyable to read, I guess I'll be content with that

Some stories with more meat on them have so much meat, it's actually becomes difficult to read them.

Fucking Re Zero with that fucking sanctuary arc.

[slender skiff]

Need to cook that fucking meat
Cos it's fucking raw

But yeah myne goes on a rather comedic rampage in school

It may or may not have to do with libraries

[pallid osprey]

How is that romcon

[pallid osprey]

And how is this romcon too?

[slender skiff]

It has romance

It is primarily a comedy

So it has romcom elements

Duh

That's literally the definition of a romcom

@pallid osprey

[pallid osprey]

Bruh

[slender skiff]

It's not the core of the story, which is why I don't call it straight out a romcom

[pallid osprey]

I thought romcom is brother-sister love

Like incest

[slender skiff]

What the fuck

[pallid osprey]

[faint crag]

I mean
it's slightly more complex than that

[grizzled acorn]

couldn't have said it better

[faint crag]

Is Nozaki a romcom, Ender?

[slender skiff]

I mean well yes it's not that simple

[grizzled acorn]

homie been watching the greek romcoms only

[slender skiff]

Nozaki is more of
It uses romance as the comedy

[pallid osprey]

[faint crag]

Well it has comedy and romance

[pallid osprey]

res 1:0 ender then

[slender skiff]

Yami

[faint crag]

[pallid osprey]

[ivory mauve]

LoL its been a while since ive read tear moon

[slender skiff]

Are you really one to say that

You literally made

The most

[pallid osprey]

[grizzled acorn]

wdym ender

[pallid osprey]

Alright

[grizzled acorn]

like honestly, funniest thing he's ever said

[faint crag]

Wait I just saw this reply holy

[grizzled acorn]

that one got me

[pallid osprey]

Time to ask Ender about weird shits in FMAB

[grizzled acorn]

there is not shit in fmab youre watching the wrong show

[pallid osprey]

[slender skiff]

I mean well

[pallid osprey]

Sometime anime can be unlogical

[slender skiff]

@thorn briar is the one watching FMAB right now

[pallid osprey]

[grizzled acorn]

omg you can be fmab buddies!

so wholesome

[slender skiff]

@pallid osprey

[inner sphinx]

[pallid osprey]

I have high standard ok

[slender skiff]

I mean, it's a fantasy, of course some parts won't make sensen

[inner sphinx]

I don't know what happened but I will just assume Yami is being Yami again

[grizzled acorn]

drop your anilist rn

[pallid osprey]

🤔

[faint crag]

[inner sphinx]

[grizzled acorn]

[slender skiff]

Wait

TPN 2

WHAT

[glass sundial]

[grizzled acorn]

ender you gotta be checking up on my boy

cant let him rate things like that

[slender skiff]

I just another aneurysm

One so bad I couldn't even type properly

[grizzled acorn]

anilist audit took .5 seconds

[pallid osprey]

Oh

[faint crag]

https://tenor.com/view/bocchi-bocchi-the-rock-non-linear-gif-27023528

[pallid osprey]

That one because I have read manga

[grizzled acorn]

??????

[slender skiff]

I mean

If you read the manga

[pallid osprey]

So that might be because manga

[slender skiff]

Then the anime should be worse

[grizzled acorn]

then you should be appalled that season 2 was like that

[pallid osprey]

But the ss2 is not that much

[slender skiff]

Way worse

[faint crag]

I'm so happy that I didn't go to sleep

[pallid osprey]

It's like 5,5 to me

For anime

Manga is 10

For sure

[grizzled acorn]

then. rate the anime a 2/10 and rate the manga a 10.

[slender skiff]

Yami I'm not even sure if 5 is appropriate

[grizzled acorn]

yeah i fixed his typo in my advice

[pallid osprey]

It is a rust

But I do know the entire of story

[slender skiff]

TPN 2 is one of the greatest abominations in manga adaptation history

[pallid osprey]

So it was ok too me

[slender skiff]

Because it completely butchered the story

[pallid osprey]

I know right

[grizzled acorn]

i watched it with my friend who was a manga reader

[pallid osprey]

I havent watch 2ss of it

[grizzled acorn]

he gave it a 1

thats his only 1/10

[pallid osprey]

I rate it based on manga

[slender skiff]

2nd season was so bad

[grizzled acorn]

rate the manga based on the manga and the anime based on the anime

yami.

[slender skiff]

^

[grizzled acorn]

youre better than this 😭

[pallid osprey]

Ill fix it when I have time

Now

I have watch list to do

[grizzled acorn]

fmab

watch now

[pallid osprey]

I gonna start with MHA first

[grizzled acorn]

...

[pallid osprey]

[grizzled acorn]

somebody stop this man

[glass sundial]

ender did u fill this club with MAL reviewers or smth? first it was yuni now yami

[grizzled acorn]

dont let yuni see that

[slender skiff]

Yuni is the one actually using mal

[glass sundial]

that's not very honoraburu

[grizzled acorn]

because mal is better

you get to read the words of absolute scholars in the review section. its amazing

[inner sphinx]

MAL will always be FMAB fans nest to me

[grizzled acorn]

checkmate

[inner sphinx]

The bombers are getting ready

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/606173162534731786/608908942151516160/image.gif

[grizzled acorn]

theyve been ready have you seen the bleach statistics on there?

[inner sphinx]

40 days ago
yea, they've been ready

[glass sundial]

see that's why MAL is dumb, a seasonal that isn't yet finished gets to beat a long-time legend

[inner sphinx]

https://tenor.com/view/full-metal-alchemist-epic-seven-e7-fma-gacha-gif-26498003

[grizzled acorn]

the genius mindset is to not care about the leaderboard, and just laugh at it

[faint crag]

wait is it fanmade or was there an actual collab?

[inner sphinx]

Actual collab

[grizzled acorn]

the beef between fmab fans and every other franchise that beats it out is so funny

[faint crag]

damn, things you miss when you drop games

[inner sphinx]

Yea, that's why I check MAL
FMAB fans keep me entertained

[inner sphinx]

Soon that game is having kpop idol collab

https://tenor.com/view/full-metal-alchemist-epic-seven-e7-fma-gacha-gif-26498000

[slender skiff]

Can't deny

That animation is lit

[grizzled acorn]

what game is that for?

[faint crag]

E7 animations are top notch

Epic Seven

[grizzled acorn]

ah, could never get into it

lucky me, i escaped

[faint crag]

I played it for a long time, but it's just too grindy
It has to be your main game or there's no real reason to play

[inner sphinx]

I still haven't got caught in E7 grind hell

I somehow treat it as collection gacha just like AL

[faint crag]

But if you can afford to give it your time - imo it's unironically one of the best gachas I've played

[inner sphinx]

[unkempt briar]

Pausechamp

[grizzled acorn]

Uh oh

[unkempt briar]

I can’t comment on the promised neverland anime but I read a good amount of the mango and I don’t like it so doubt the anime would change my mind

But I heard s2 was absolute doodoo

[slender skiff]

The adaptation was doodoo yes

[solemn pollen]

what's this?

[slender skiff]

Completely butchered the story beyond belief

[solemn pollen]

There was such thing? Huh

[thorn briar]

[flat cedar]

yeah

it was successful too

[solid nebula]

could be worse, could be the roblox filter right now who banned half the english language

[solid nebula]

HEYYY, I remember this

that shit was a classic

even has the sequel with Holo and that guy's daughter

[slender skiff]

And next you're gonna tell me, there's a live adaptation

[thorn briar]

and once I'm done with it , i will watch the Ascendance of a Bookworm

[slender skiff]

And it's called Hololive

🏃‍♂️

[solid nebula]

ah

ahhhhh

I see what you did there

[thorn briar]

[thorny nest]

mfw the first sound to hear in the first episode of eminence in shadow is a goddamn alarm

[thorn briar]

[trim swan]

"The S-Classes That I Raised"

[thorny nest]

this looks

weird

[trim swan]

hmm it does indeed

the dude is also ||weak af||

[thorny nest]

[solid nebula]

But he makes up for it by having actual years of experience

Because the system is doing some weird fucky wucky

[stable herald]

is that dude a virgin moment ot a chad?

[thorn briar]

He looks like another Kirito

[thorny nest]

baka shiro did u watch eminence in shadow?

[thorn briar]

Yes i did

The most anime that i was hyped for this season

[thorny nest]

I watched 3 episodes so far

but I like it

feels like this season is finally one stepping up in quality again

[thorn briar]

I like the girls

[thorny nest]

"pretending to be average is quite hard you know?"

[thorn briar]

SAO movie will air on the cinema here

The one called progressive

Is it new

[thorny nest]

my favourite girl of the season is tania and nothing's gonna change that

[thorn briar]

Tania

Isn't she old

[thorny nest]

[thorn briar]

Or is it a new tania

[thorny nest]

the new one from beast tamer

the other one is tanya

[thorn briar]

I mixed between them

[thorny nest]

[thorn briar]

I didn't watch the beast tamer

[thorny nest]

go and watch it

[thorn briar]

I wanted to but i didn't

[thorny nest]

episode 5 is 10/10

[thorn briar]

I will watch it later

[stable herald]

2nd movie going to be new

1st one alr out months agi

[thorny nest]

dem girls are cute

[stable herald]

alpha cute

But i like Beta the most

[thorny nest]

@stable herald I sincerely dislike the cliffhanger of the latest episode I guess I have to read the manga

[grizzled acorn]

Eminence in shadow Wednesday

[thorny nest]

oh right

just gotta wait til the evening I guess

guess I'm gonna watch a maid war then

[thorn briar]

I thought it was the 1st one

But thanks

[thorn briar]

especially the fox girl with long black hair

[thorny nest]

when I first saw her I thought of musashi

[thorn briar]

She looks better than musashi

[thorny nest]

musashi has 11/10 flapping ears

[thorn briar]

But that girl is stronger

[thorny nest]

@silver robin ngl episode 1 of akiba maid war hits different with the song played during that scene

[slender skiff]

Speaking of which

New chap

[ivory mauve]

Another one falls into her con

[slender skiff]

Honestly

I feel when they animate this

It's not gonna be a thud

It's gonna be more a comedic plop

[ivory mauve]

[slender skiff]

For me

As hilarious as the characters are in tearmoon

The one thing that kept me in the series (at least LN wise) was the description/narration

Everytime someone falls for her non existent sainthood/big brain

[thorn briar]

She mad for axion , source: untouchable lady

[slender skiff]

Like this is one of my favourite bits

The other is this

Pure fucking gold

[thorny nest]

[slender skiff]

I can only hope this narration is kept in the anime

[thorny nest]

I'm watching shinobi no ittoki rn and the main thing rn is "I don't know shit, lemme ask" -> response "yeah everyone knows"
mc be like: y u no explain?

[thorn briar]

, source: eminence in the shadow

Also thier cliffhangers always stops at the most hyped moments

Which i hate but since i like the anime I'm good with it

[trim swan]

just read the manga bro

[thorn briar]

No

Until the anime ends I'm not reading the manga

Also cooper I'm not bro , I'm a girl

[trim swan]

are u sure about that
jk i know, was just figurative speech

[thorn briar]

It's okay

Who is this

Or is she the new girl who became with them

[trim swan]

looks like..... gamma?
the clumsy one
idk

[thorn briar]

She fell in today's episode too

[trim swan]

adds to her charm ngl

"Martial Peak"

[thorn briar]

Sorry for earlier , but like i don't understand jokes and sarcasm sometimes

[trim swan]

adds to your charm ngl

[grizzled acorn]

Lmao

[ivory mauve]

Another great episode

[grizzled acorn]

eminence in shadow is such a W show, it is taking every amount of self-restraint I have to not binge read the entire manga

[faint crag]

Ok this is actually great

[thorn briar]

[trim swan]

alright i know you put the cover page but that doesn't excuse you not giving sauce

[ivory mauve]

Name's is right there in English. Before anyone asks

Ffs

[silver robin]

minus skill city people gather together something synergy something getting very op party story

from my limited japanese

@trim swan

[trim swan]

thank you Sam

[ivory mauve]

Right there

[silver robin]

that EN title doesn't do the JP title justice

[ivory mauve]

It's a start

[silver robin]

didn't mention anything about getting very op party

[ivory mauve]

Hush hush

[silver robin]

also didn't mention something about "the story of"

cause it uses the same "ken" as in tensura

[ivory mauve]

Yes, strange bird

[echo quiver]

bocchi spoilers

i never even noticed

more bocchi spoilers (for episode 4)

[ivory mauve]

False

[faint crag]

I could go into a lengthy explanation how translation, especially translation of titles, not only doesn't have to be literal, but also how it's usually shouldn't be literal

But it seems like this is the "official japanese "english" name" which are almost always bad cos a lot of japanese authors don't actually know english but still try to include it

[silver robin]

i guess thats fair

[ivory mauve]

🤣

[faint crag]

Well not an example of "bad english" but of "official japanese english title" is re zero
which is actually officially called "Re: Life in a different world from zero" in japanese

[ivory mauve]

Konosuba

Wait

[faint crag]

I don't think konosuba has an english title in japanese?

[ivory mauve]

That time i got reincarnated as a hotspring

[trim swan]

doesn't konosuba EN have the exact same meaning as it's JP

[faint crag]

Yea

It's a "Short name: Full name" some localizers use

[solid nebula]

Oh hey that one

[silver robin]

yea

they did this with re:zero as well right

[faint crag]

yea but I'm not talking about localizers

[ivory mauve]

Waiting on new chapters

[faint crag]

I'm talking about japanese publisher giving official name in english

[silver robin]

[faint crag]

Re Zero localized is called

Re:Zero − Starting Life in Another World

which is just literal japanese name

[ivory mauve]

"The Chronicles of the Misfit Quartet and Their Unrivaled Synergy"

Kek

[trim swan]

gae

[ivory mauve]

What is this development wtf. First it was the Swordsman now it's the priest turn lol.

[ivory mauve]

@trim swan its a chain confession lol

[trim swan]

still gae

[ivory mauve]

It's a misunderstanding that just keeps on giving

Pfffff they are self aware about it lol

Meanwhile Alvin like a total generic protagonist is oblivious of what he did lol

[keen ledge]

[thorn briar]

Can i recommend u reading Pandora hearts

[keen ledge]

i watched it

[thorn briar]

But did u read it

I will always recommend the manga

[keen ledge]

i didn't

[thorn briar]

Eventhough it broke my emotions but it's good

[keen ledge]

oh i like mangas like that

[thorn briar]

Then go read it

[keen ledge]

whenever i have time

[thorn briar]

Okay , take ur time

Have u watched or read d.gray-man

[keen ledge]

watched it

[thorn briar]

[silver robin]

[thorn briar]

I recommend u to read the manga too then

I like how in d.gray-man ||they made u know who the Villains are and who the good guys are in the beginning of the manga , but now no one is sure who's the Villains and who are the good guys ||

[keen ledge]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/528197562998718474/922544452894081094/757638271709741156-1.gif

[thorn briar]

I don't want to spoil u more , but it gets a chapter every 4 months

[keen ledge]

that's worse then tonari no tenshi

[thorn briar]

[keen ledge]

saijo no osewa only has 8 chaps, dunno how often it comes out

[thorn briar]

And for Vanitas no Carte the manga is on hiatus

Since the anime was done the hiatus for the manga begun

I miss them

Half of the cover of vol 7 of vanitas no carte

I like how u need to look at every art for the manga and all the colours and search for thier meaning to ||understand and figure out and make a guess about what may happen to the characters in this manga ||

[stable herald]

which is vanitas again, the dude or the women?

[thorn briar]

Vanitas is the guy with blue hair

[stable herald]

i c

[thorn briar]

Him

[stable herald]

Basically the flirty dude

[stable herald]

Well this is cute

[thorn briar]

[stable herald]

i want them vamp to suck on me

blood

[thorn briar]

I miss veronica since i disliked her from the beginning but a certain chapter made me like her

[stable herald]

hmm

if i were to go for vanitas series

should i be watchin the anime first

or manga

Tho, i did see anime one is quite fun

[thorn briar]

They skipped some stuff but , i would recommend the manga

And since the manga is on hiatus u can stop until the last chapter that got released and go watch the anime

But if u want to watch the anime first just go and watch it and then read the manga

[thorny nest]

ngl in the newest eminence episode || it's kinda fun how sherry is like totally oblivious what's happening around her while she's walking around aimlessly ||

[boreal oyster]

finally relatable character

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/975525442062778389.png?v=1&size=48&quality=lossless

[slender skiff]

Mood

Pretty much the same

Especially if I read the source material first

It takes an incredible amount of effort to finish the animu

[thorny nest]

yeah, especially when you know the whole season's plot and the season is starting

[faint crag]

Just go in with the "eh I just want to check it out" mindset
If it's doesn't work out - "well I wasn't going to watch more than 1-2 episodes anyway"

and if it does work out - you'll finish whole season before you realize you only wanted to watch 1-2 episodes

me and spy x family btw

Wasn't going to watch animu at all, but one day wanted to check something that should've happened in 1st episode

[pallid osprey]

@slender skiff

I heard there is a lewd scene in FGO

When Enkidu

[slender skiff]

What

[pallid osprey]

Do that to a girl

[slender skiff]

I mean

I don't think that scene is ever animated

And if anything

That just gives you background into enkidu

Enkidu got their form

Because they modelled their body after the "most beautiful prostitute" of the time

[pallid osprey]

Why do they have to put "some" lewd scene in Fate series?

Fan service?

[thorn briar]

I don't remember enkidu doing something weird in fgo babylonia anime

Other than ||siduri saving him ||

[slender skiff]

It's not fanservice

Not in this case at least

This is quite literally Enkidu's backstory

If you go look up the real history

Enkidu was originally a lump of clay

That the gods moulded into a killing machine

[pallid osprey]

[slender skiff]

It's after "mating with the most beautiful prostitute" for a fortnight

Did it become somewhat human

[thorn briar]

He was supposed to kill gilgamesh doesn't he

[slender skiff]

Correct

[thorn briar]

[solid nebula]

... Say again?

[slender skiff]

And yes, to kill gil

Oh I'm not kidding

That's what's written on ye olde tablets

Enkidu gained its current form

From the "most beautiful prostitute of the time"

By doing the deed

And then it went to go kill gil

And after 3 days and nights

It was a draw

And then Gil being Gil

Said

Gods are boooooring

Let's just have fun together yeah?

And so began their friendship

That's, more or less the start of the Epic of Gilgamesh, greatly abridged ofc

[thorn briar]

I just found this fanart of enkidu when i searched about him

[solid nebula]

So let me get this straight, he fucked a prostitute gained a something form and then decided he wanted to fight gil, outside, rough it down, for 3 days and 3 nights, then somehow in that entire fistcuff Gil was like "fuck it, want a beer?"

And became friends?

[thorn briar]

Hilise's mom , source : untouchable lady

[slender skiff]

It's not "decided"

For context

Gil was created by the gods as part god part human

And the idea was, he as a part human would lead the humans (as their king)

To an era where they would live together with the gods

And so the gods could play around with them

(much like the Greek gods)

But Gil was like

Nah fuck it

These gods do be evil

Imma take these humans away from the gods

And so he did

The gods, were obviously not happy, so they decided to take some clay, and mould it into a weapon, and use it to force Gil to comply

It was quite literally their deadliest weapon

But they realised their clay couldn't really blend in long enough to reach uruk

So that shenanigan happened

So enkidu was created to essentially make Gil do the job he was supposed to do

Namely, binding humanity to the heavens

Which is why it's called - the chain of the heavens

[solid nebula]

remind me again, is this Fate?

[slender skiff]

This is technically the epic of Gilgamesh

Obviously fate did take some liberties

But the large majority of it is accurate to the real epic of Gilgamesh

[solid nebula]

yeah, mythology is a crazy drug

[slender skiff]

I mean

The epic of Gilgamesh is literally the oldest known story

Iirc

Which is part of why Gilgamesh and Enkidu are both so strong lore wise in Fate

[solid nebula]

welp, imma pretend I understood everything of that and go back to gremlin writing a story

[slender skiff]

The older and more famous your story is

The more powerful you tend to be

That's one of the key power scaling in fate

The location you're summoned in also plays a role

For example
Oda Nobunaga would be far more powerful in Japan than somewhere else

Or King Arthur would be stronger in the British Isles

[solid nebula]

neat

[slender skiff]

And well, if say you were to compare
Qin Shi Huang to Kongming

The former is older

Ok not the best example

But yeah same thing

So to the original topic
