[gilded ember]

are you talking about joey or the group? cuz i think the group is on flames rn due to their recent video and them getting labeled as anime tourists

[normal hare]

they also already apologized for it pretty well, most of that is done with

[gilded ember]

its just crazy that they didnt know goku had a tail before lol

i didn't really care since their content really didnt appeal to me that much

[austere skiff]

joey the anime man did recently make a video about tourists lol

weird coincidence

or maybe its related i didnt watch that one either

oh yeah its literally addressing theanimemen

thats what i get for being a headline only reading redditor :/

me dumb

i was gonna lead with "everyone hating on joey all of a sudden" is a monthly occurence in the trash taste fanbase wdym

[normal hare]

they started doing anime centric episodes where they actually watch the shows

so those flagrant takes aren't as common anymore

[inland talon]

Joey, but also the group cuz I didn’t really se the issue was in the first place. I never understood the “anime tourism” take, the group just likes what they like.

Also didn’t see an issue with Joey’s response.

[normal hare]

it's not really about preferences and what not, it's just cause the video they made, they clearly didn't really bother to watch the shows and were not taking it seriously

so people saw it as them half assing the video and just disrespecting older titles

[gilded ember]

well i dont really know why joey is getting hate but the thing about the group right, yea i do understand you can like what you like but they literally made a video about exploring anime by watching the 1st ep of every popular show every year but they didn't even give the effort to review for the most part why they like/disliked the shows in turn just go and side with the shows they alr know hence the tourist allegations

[normal hare]

in general anime tourism is pretty fine, as long as you're not trying to comment on the other shows that you don't like or bother to understand

like if all you want to watch is the mainstream stuff that's fine

[inland talon]

I mean they only watched 1 episode of every anime, it was just a brainless video tbh, nothing to be outraged about imo

Nobody can make a comprehensive video over 1 episode of each anime

[gilded ember]

that's the thing they didnt watch it lol they were half assing in the video

[normal hare]

oh yeah i agree i think the outrage was like way overblown

i think it's just a result of the more hardcore anime fans being defensive of the medium

especially with how mainstream anime has gotten, some people feel sensitive about it

[inland talon]

I agree, at the same time it’s not like long time fans of anime are into old anime as well. I’ve seen many people say they can’t watch old anime because of “bad” animation.

[gilded ember]

also isn't it pretty hypothetical that their channel name is literally "theanimemen"?

hypocritical i mean

[inland talon]

I mean they’re new to the genre. They became anime fans during the pandemic

So it makes sense their view of anime is shallow atm

[gilded ember]

but it shouldn't excuse you for giving atleast an in depth thought on why you didnt like the shows

[normal hare]

yeah i don't think much about this it's just a channel name

[normal hare]

yea tldr, there's no issue with being an anime tourist or not understanding the history of anime well, it's just don't try to half ass it in a video like this

or it comes off as a bit disrespectful

but either way i don't think people should've gotten this mad over it

[gilded ember]

they do got 5 mil subs which is one of the biggest channels in anitube

if i saw that and im trying to get into anime yk it might be weird seeing it

[normal hare]

it's a mix of two things

1. they just make funny anime skits
2. they cover mainstream stuff mostly so they have a lot of following from casuals too

that's just common clickbait lingo nowadays cause a lot of people used to think anime was weird and for nerds back in the day

you see a lot of "anime haters watch aot for the first time and they love it!!!"

people just love to see dudes come around on their favorite stuff so it's easy bait

[inland talon]

Lmao I’m getting heat on TikTok by saying Luffy would be republican 🤣🤣

Now that’s getting canceled, Joey and the anime men could never lmao

[normal hare]

luffy would not give a damn, if anyone was stopping him from getting the one piece he'd beat them up

[inland talon]

My argument was if Luffy was real he’d be a hillbilly republican living in the middle of nowhere America, wouldn’t pay taxes, and be pro gun ownership

It’s not that deep and it’s just an opinion btw

[normal hare]

any political opinion will get you grilled on tiktok generally

luffy would probably be in the mafia

[inland talon]

Lmao probably

He’d be a Cartel

[normal hare]

How many muse Asia alternatives are there damn

[boreal rover]

I would ....... temper your expectations based on this episode 0

it's a lot of lore dump and world building stuff that they needed to get out there but clearly thought wouldn't work in the main series episodes

treat it as the prologue it is 🙂

[normal hare]

I love lore dump

[boreal rover]

but then again PA Works has hit and miss cycles and I really do enjoy a good lore dump and world building from time to time

either way, it's called episode 0 for a reason lol

[gilded ember]

the story here were lowkey pseudo happenings in recent events too

[normal hare]

nahhh not the blissful dream being interrupted by alarm at 6:00 meme...

already a very self aware show lol

ohh it's kayano ai

alice my love

[gilded ember]

the plot twist was predictable wasnt it

[normal hare]

i haven't finished yet bro i went to eat my lunch a quarter way through lmao

but now that you said that i have an idea

[gilded ember]

o mb lmao

[normal hare]

[gilded ember]

i assumed since u were already posting about it lol

[boreal rover]

hmmm it's sort of like a 15yo's perspective on recent events and AI lol

[gilded ember]

im talking about the ||shooting stuff||

[boreal rover]

ah, probably just a coincidence lol

[normal hare]

oh maigodo incesto

oooh ok i enjoyed that first ep, the lore dump didn't really feel bad honestly

just really allowed us to get settled into the world

but man i knew that thing was coming from miles away

i noticed a new problem i have with shows

is that i can't enjoy the happy bits cause i know there's like 11 episodes to go and something bad will go wrong

[gilded ember]

what confused me was the ending ||i assumed after he got shot he got put on some kind of healing chamber so did they just forgot about him or did society collapse that fast||

[normal hare]

Probably the latter

||she probably put him hidden away cause of the rising tensions to ensure his safety||

[gilded ember]

oh that makes sense

||now i would assume that AI towa talks to in her room replaces her and was named yuugure||

Nice

[boreal rover]

given the state of the city ||that much vegetation and what looks like craters filled with water... I'd assume a LONG time passed||

but we're gonna get a lot of ||the one year between the confession and the shooting with the two in flashbacks probably if the promotional videos are anything to go by||

[normal hare]

Solid ep though, did exactly what it needed to do

[boreal rover]

yep, a necessary bit of prologue without too much of the actual show in it

but probably somebody who doesn't see this can still get 90-95% of the experience with the show itself

[gilded ember]

i guess this is a semi spoil just saw the synopsis, very interesting

[gilded ember]

||this is more evidence for me to believe it||

[normal hare]

Yeah I thought the foreshadowing was pretty evident with her constantly harping about how ai wasn't much different from humans

[boreal rover]

||there's also the bit about the AI being jealous||

[normal hare]

that too

[boreal rover]

but I'm hoping it's not as predictable as that

i'm not ready to say goodbye

[boreal rover]

Wonder if they'll do an OVA later for the new novel that just came out as a sequel/epilogue to the 15th volume this summer

it's kind of funny, the movie will come out in the same year as the official english of the final volume 15th comes out

time to watch the last 3 episodes of this season then

[normal hare]

Looks good, let nio nakatani cook

[gilded ember]

aobuta final ep was really good 👍

[gilded ember]

rating gommenasai/10

[boreal rover]

||the recontextualized first meeting from her perspective is very well done, totally changes perspective lol, who would have thought she was so aggressively in her own way pursuing him haha||

honestly I had low expectations for the last episode ||but the flashbacks carried it hard||

[gilded ember]

yea it was soo cute haha

[boreal rover]

||that's a totally abrupt way to end the season though even if it's a satisfying ending, I understand why they'll try to Movie/OVA the next little bit before a potential S2||

||good tease of the next part of the story with her friends||

probably suggests cloverworks has the next part already prepared

[gilded ember]

||other than that climax, where would you end it tho so i think it was a good enough closure for now||

[boreal rover]

fair

let's see what they do next

with this Canada Simulator

I mean gomenasai simulator

ruri rocks is really a surprise this season

[normal hare]

Goon anime of the season

Damn a 10/10 I just saw the score gee golly

[gilded ember]

its one of those shows you just dont get to see every year tbh

and the quality too is insane

[normal hare]

[boreal rover]

I think you are too generous with the scores but I get it

also can't believe you actually stayed with Turkey to the end

[gilded ember]

it was such a messy show that i just had to finish it lol and its an original but i like the goofiness of it

[boreal rover]

definitely not a premise you see everyday lol

still need to finish a few more shows this season before I make up my mind about what I just watched lol

[normal hare]

Just a little smt I saw

[boreal rover]

those are what come to mind when you think of top studios in anime, looks about right

some of them like A1 and CloverWorks are just massive animation factories with so many teams it's kind of mindboggling

and some like wit studio assist a lot of others, sort of like OEM but anime version lol

a lot of the companies have been around a while (like shaft celebrating 50th anniv right now) but madhouse has been an anime production powerhouse for so long yeah

[gilded ember]

not to hate but i didnt know there's so many shows here that is an 8.5 rating

maybe i shouldn't look into it that much since its mal lol

idk for all i know its just getting bot farmed

also i'm almost certain at this point that ||mito is kirishima touko, that ending just raised so many flags, guess we'll finally see her in the movie||

good ass season

not quite as magical as s1 but it lived up to it

also no idea why ||ikumi was the one that decided to accompany them to hokkaido outta nowhere, guess she was just the only one knowledgeable about hokkaido, respect they dropped the money for a 1 day trip just to bring takumi a plaque||

"WITCH WATCH" TV Anime SEASON 2 production decision.

Lmao I didn't realize how tiny these plushies are (Wallet for scale)

But yippee, my Uika plushie arrived

[boreal rover]

already? S1 is about to end this Sunday with 25 whole episodes of hilarity

must have been positively received in Japan

the manga's volume sales increased dramatically once the anime aired.

[inland talon]

I finally finished monster

Idk how to feel about it

At least with the ending

My biggest complaints are that it was a little too long and dragged out

However every episode was well written and even well animated for the time

But to end it with an open ending kinda made it all feel empty

Tenma is a good protagonist though, ||still think he should’ve shot Johan, at least in the arm or leg so he could confess his sins||

||didn’t get why he was in the hospital just free, at least cuff him||

[silk bridge]

shippuden spoilers

[normal hare]

NOOOOO SENSEI

Still hurts me to this day

[gilded ember]

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=akScFvwJnWw&pp=0gcJCfsJAYcqIYzv

it wasnt as scary as i thought it was lol

[normal hare]

Owh everything's on YouTube

[gilded ember]

yea but awkward senpai isnt so u gotta go on hayase for that

[boreal rover]

just checked the Who Made Me a Princess chinese anime with the JP dub

that's a lot of changes from the novel/manhwa

||like completely changed the background, reincarnation, removed the execution, etc. basically made it non-isekai||

[lunar zephyr]

Yo quick question but is the anime demon slayer completely different from the manga after like the first few arcs? I watched season 1 fully back when it came out then read almost the whole manga but I keep seeing stuff that Ive never read in the manga

[boreal rover]

no idea, I never got past finishing s1 and never read the manga

[gilded ember]

ive never seen a villainess show rated this high, maybe i gotta watch it now

[normal hare]

Shouldn't be a lot, maybe some extra scenes but shouldn't affect how the story is delivered too much

[lunar zephyr]

I hope they did cause the manga was awful after a point. It just started hyper speeding the pace of the story. I saw some added content with hashiras that i def dont remember. It was def needed

[normal hare]

Oh that's a new one, a lot of people have complaints that the 1st half of demon slayer is too slow

which arc was it specifically?

I guess it is a bit on the shorter side for a shounen series

https://mangadex.org/title/1e11804a-f339-479c-b2fd-11aa62159bd4/twelve-zodiac-girls waited for this to get a few more chapters, fun little harem ecchi action series based off the zodiac race

Really scratched that itch I was kinda looking for

[normal hare]

The trailer for this one looked funny

[gilded ember]

yooo its that girl from code geass

[normal hare]

https://tenor.com/view/pizza-codegeass-cc-gif-7752834

pizza hut mentioned

[rustic lynx]

It's getting a 2nd-cour when I didn't even knew the 1st-cour finished

The manga is good but idk why the anime is flying under the radar

[gilded ember]

animation is doo doo garbage

[boreal rover]

it's not that bad

[normal hare]

Does a show like this even need great animation

[boreal rover]

that show (Saigo ni Hitotsu dake Onegai shitemo Yoroshii deshou ka) first episode was surprisingly really damn good, very enjoyable and delivery and pace was actually fun

I have no idea about the source material but if they keep this up, it'll make for a really good "battle" shoujo lol

or josei or whatever given where the manga adaptation is published

still shoujo lol

[normal hare]

Man 10 years, one of the greatest mech shows

[gilded ember]

2 eps got released btw but yea it was really solid ||but that girl is a fucking menace lmao but its justified due to the sufferings she had to endure||

[boreal rover]

oh there's another episode!

[boreal rover]

I mean wouldn't hurt a villainess show ||to have actual calamity villainess as the main character|| for once lol

[gilded ember]

true ||she let her intrusive thoughts come out lmao||

[boreal rover]

shounen shows have shown that you can have a proper complex villain as the MC and still succeed so

let's go!

either way I am amused

so that's all it takes for me to follow the show for the season 😄

The manga adaptation of this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nia_Liston:_The_Merciless_Maiden

is my favorite of this genre

but this show is a pretty good one so far

[gilded ember]

oh its asami seto again for this role?

jeez she gotta take a break man lol

[boreal rover]

lol the popular voice actors do 3-5 roles per season easily

Rieri some seasons had like 8 roles

[gilded ember]

yea idk how they do it and most of it are main roles too

[boreal rover]

yeah pretty crazy

but even crazier to me is anime production in general

all aspects of it are overworked and on crunch

like this saturday there are 28 different shows airing

saturday alone

other days have between 5-25 this season

summer was even worse

how

[gilded ember]

most of it are probably low quality if thats the case

thanks crunchy

[vale bloom]

oh this one's sick af

finished dr stone's anime and continued it in the manga

in 1 week. so much fun

[normal hare]

https://youtu.be/DSYj9FLVqMY?si=TrlasHwy6C4QaRa9 chico with honeyworks never disappoints

I tried getting through my awkward senpai, just not feeling it

her personality just feels too gimmicky for my liking

[boreal rover]

watari-kun's still ongoing so I can't say this tops that but "Tomodachi no Imouto ..." might be this season's trashy romcom to watch for

||It's basically Nagatoro but redhead or perhaps Oregairu Iroha route without the somewhat autistic pretty entertaining to watch MC, here it's a blank slate MC so far.||

||the main girl is even called Iroha lol||

[gilded ember]

ngl i got put off by the mal ratings so i think im passing lol srry days with my stepsister author

[gilded ember]

beautiful final ep ill give it a 9/10

[normal hare]

i'm ngl chat fall looks kinda cooked

in ramune bottle we trust

[boreal rover]

I think summer just set the standards too high

[boreal rover]

mal ratings after just one episode has aired basically means nothing

[normal hare]

yeah fall just feels a bit like why i went on an anime break for awhile

just nothing that really jumped out of the screen and grabbed me

honestly it's just a breather until we get an incredibly stacked winter season lol

[boreal rover]

yeah I gave a bunch a try, none of them have really made it to my weekly watch list yet

other than maybe that violent villainess one lol

winter and spring next year will be pretty crazy with big names

[normal hare]

frieren, hell's paradise, mato slave, jjk, onk, fate

[boreal rover]

then later in 2026 we are supposedly getting another kaguya-sama

[normal hare]

right the ova

[boreal rover]

mushoku tensei is having another season, whether one is a fan of the show or not, it's super popular

[boreal rover]

well they haven't quite figured out what it is yet 😄

[gilded ember]

bocchi s2 too hell yea

[boreal rover]

bocchi director (?) made some fuss recently with her comments

should have just not said anything, nobody had any issues with a show that popular lol

[boreal rover]

mato slave
lol by passione, which is just going to be a whole new world for that show 😄

[gilded ember]

are you talking about the director who switch to frieren for s2?

[boreal rover]

did she?

[gilded ember]

i think it was a him

[boreal rover]

I don't remember, I just recall somebody major involved in bocchi s1 said something along the lines of "fanservice is noise, I wanted to make the show appealing to my adolescent child" or something like that

[normal hare]

https://tenor.com/view/hype-ready-to-fight-gif-325829536455147404

ishuzoku reviewers

nukitashi

they're on a legendary run right now 💯

the ecchi scene is kinda dead, they carrying it on their shoulders

[boreal rover]

literally the last company standing that doesn't give a shit about censors 😄

[gilded ember]

oh ur talking about the scriptwriter for bocchi

[boreal rover]

I guess that's her yeah

this monster wants to eat me was actually heavier than I thought it would be

||too much self harm and suicidal themes :(||

[normal hare]

oh boy

[boreal rover]

it's the only real yuri this season but

like I kind of feel really bad for the main character

[normal hare]

https://tenor.com/view/motivation-ayame-kajou-shimoneta-anime-power-up-gif-16993931

the only sfw gif i could find

[gilded ember]

||having both of ur parents pass away suddenly while not having a figure after that is pretty rough man||

[boreal rover]

||yeah she's ultra depressed||

[gilded ember]

ur more vulnerable to temptations

[normal hare]

worth watching? I put it on my list but was unsure if i wanted to go ahead with it after the other disappointing stuff for fall

[boreal rover]

I think maybe give two episodes a try and see if the themes match your interests

I'll give it one more episode before seeing where it goes

[gilded ember]

towa no yuugure ep 2 tho was insane

[boreal rover]

haven't gotten around to that yet

[gilded ember]

they insanely upped the animations

[boreal rover]

which I suppose is expected of pa works

episode 0 was just a prologue after all not part of the main series

[boreal rover]

good ending for this season of silent witch

doubt it'll get a s2 anytime soon

but it was fun

8/10 easily

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J_ii270EbqU

||also hanakana for the necklace voice actor was funny||

[boreal rover]

you weren't kidding, that was good

hopefully it didn't set the standard too high for subsequent episodes

what an odd but somewhat not so new plot so far, interesting

[gilded ember]

yea nobody likes the world building aspects nowadays, maybe everyone has adhd lol

[normal hare]

Honestly people have never liked world building

That's why one piece wasn't that popular a decade ago

Add in world building and it just becomes draggy and yap

[austere skiff]

people like to watch lore videos but generally dont actually like to engage with the storytelling required for that

[normal hare]

Finally some good food

Ok so they confirmed the 2 split cour

Hopefully it means they'll be able to keep up production

[gilded ember]

the hell are they gonna do for 1 hour bruh

this isnt some fate shit

[rustic lynx]

https://tenor.com/view/gong-guinaifen-gif-11339490754733460259

[boreal rover]

I mean sometimes you need to mix your prologue and build-up with the start of the actual story after all

last season clevatess first episode was also "1-hour" (more like 46 min which is what this one will be too)

[normal hare]

Yeah there's ton of stuff to do lol

[boreal rover]

sometimes they air both ep1 and ep2 at the same time and call it one hour premiere too

[normal hare]

Probably wanted to leave it on a bigger note since the first half probably full of exposition and what not

It's like onk, the first half of the premiere really wasn't anything too crazy until the end

[boreal rover]

especially with a story like this where the idea is that his world is gonna turn upside down, you gotta give that world to the viewing audience

so the significance of it being turned upside down hits home

honestly though this whole season is kind of ........ not much going on for it

so maybe this will be fun

[normal hare]

Yeah it's pretty ass most of the big guns are loaded up for winter

This is the one show I was really looking forward to

[boreal rover]

studio feel is the same studio that did most of oregairu adaptations to anime

I think one of the seasons was another studio

[normal hare]

Yep

[boreal rover]

they also did another two cours adaptations just this year, Summer Pockets, and that was done fantastically (I still haven't finished it)

[normal hare]

I'm 2/3 of the way there with my friends

It's been pretty good

Standard key visual novel

[boreal rover]

it's a very good light novel adaptation and yeah pretty much what you expect from Key 😄

a better style of multiroute adaptation than usual though

[normal hare]

It really feels like I'm watching something like seiren

Just a new girl every 4 episodes

Whiplash is a bit much but I'm glad every girl is getting their route

[normal hare]

I'm hoping for another series to shake up my worldview

[gilded ember]

i mean they have 2 cours to work with so why cram it up

[normal hare]

It's all about getting that impact on the 1st episode

Make an impression

Also makes it feel more cinematic

Which is kind of the feel they're going for

[normal hare]

damn again

[normal hare]

prayers up

hope it's nth serious

[normal hare]

yeah not sure i can really get through the rest of silent witch

I think I just came in expecting a more plot oriented story rather than a more slice of life one

i'd probably enjoy the slice of life elements if the side characters were a lot more interesting

a shame cause i had higher hopes coming into it expecting it to fill that fantasy itch of mine

but the whole side plot with the villainess girl was really a drag

[ebon thunder]

Finally watched the CSM movie

Just to make up for the kimetsu movie that I missed

[normal hare]

https://tenor.com/view/chainsaw-man-csm-reze-csm-reze-chainsaw-man-reze-blep-gif-14961911865463848325

i was in shambles when jane doe hit

[austere skiff]

https://youtube.com/watch?v=L3KeCXykpFw

hey this one is actually a trailer

music goes hard

24 eps yay

[inland talon]

I got chainsaw man tickets

😤😤😤

[gilded ember]

it really wasn't that bad tho

[normal hare]

I wouldn't say it was bad but it was moreso like what are we doing

i was fine with how it initially started with her just trying to bully her and the other girl

then they just dragged it on for too long, should've just been that mini arc that stair pushing ep and nth more

just felt so unimportant to the story

i was ok with it in the start and then it just felt like we had 4 straight episodes of side story content

but like even with the side story content, if the side characters were even remotely interesting it probably wouldn't have been such a dry watch

i still really liked monica but everyone around her besides the maid and the other sage felt so filler

[gilded ember]

idk how you got into that conclusion tbh because it got ended if you just watched another ep

[normal hare]

i mean the point is we had to sit through near half the whole anime to finally get something

like I really gotta get to ep 8/9 before something starts happening

felt like they had some good momentum in the 1st 3 episodes and then just completely dropped the ball right after that

i probably would've been able to get through it if i had stuck with it weekly, a lot easier to digest filler/slow eps

but watching 3 relatively empty episodes in a row is tough to get through especially when there aren't interesting side characters to really get you through

[boreal rover]

despite a relatively lackluster season this fall

the OPs and EDs are fire

[normal hare]

oh for sure

https://youtu.be/wS-lmrs7h-0?si=5ZzQh5v3sCUywo1t dropped this one but i really liked this one

[boreal rover]

yeah first episode of that one was enough for me

[normal hare]

i was really disappointed cause i was getting skip and loafer vibes from the opening

my issue with these kinda shows is that they feel waaaaay too gimmicky and i can't get invested into them as characters

cause they just don't feel real

[boreal rover]

it's that plus trying to feel real

like if it's fantasy, you don't have to try to relate to it

[normal hare]

very jarring

[boreal rover]

but when it tries to make a relatable show or realistic scenario but with too many tropes and gimmicks, it just ends up uncanny

that other show, "My Friend's Little Sister Has It In for Me" also has the same issue, it feels like that "Can a Boy and Girl Friendship Hold Up? (No, It Can't!!)" anime with the blue haired girl named Himari (even has the same voice actor for the female main character I think)

like there's trashy romance and then there's unbearable trashy romance

[gilded ember]

lol himari the demon reincarnated herself

[normal hare]

yeah uh i didn't have a lot of hopes for that one looking at the pv and synopsis

only saving grace was the author but even then sometimes they just miss too

the kinda stories i'd be okay reading weekly in manga form but a whole 12 eps i'm good

[gilded ember]

that's just like frieren tho

[boreal rover]

and like they've often been done better already in anime form

[boreal rover]

Frieren may be a bit too "normie-friendly" but it does have its hooks in the first 3-4 episodes already

if you expect it to be more shounen battle, then sure, you gotta wait until 8-9...

[normal hare]

yeah frieren had me hooked in the first few eps

honestly the shounen battle part was like the icing on the cake for me

i went into the story expecting a nice slice of life with some introspective life shit

so when the action came i was like oh! i didn't expect it but it's a welcome addition

[boreal rover]

indeed

[normal hare]

like as great as the fight scenes are

the best parts of frieren are still them just

chilling

and doing random stuff

[boreal rover]

sadly I doubt there will be much after the second season if the manga keeps going on hiatus

[normal hare]

https://tenor.com/view/frieren-sip-frieren-sipping-tea-book-gif-1603575268151458399

[normal hare]

i really hope it's nothing serious

i'm getting hxh flashbacks

[boreal rover]

standouts this season so far for me were that punching noble lady (Saigo ni Hitotsu dake Onegai shitemo Yoroshii deshou ka) and Yasei no Last Boss ga Arawareta!

even spy family first ep was absolutely not a hook at all, completely boring

[normal hare]

i still haven't watched ramune bottle yet

[boreal rover]

imma give that one a few episodes to accumulate first

but from the bits I saw, it's very much a mix of oregairu and rascal does not dream in feel and character development

which if they execute well, it'll turn out great

[normal hare]

yeah i'm on the first 2 as well for this szn

[boreal rover]

Towa no Yuugure is okay too so far but I don't know, the plot feels a bit disorienting

and the difference between the CG action scenes and regular scenes are pretty much pa works signatures but we'll see, they usually do well early on with an original then mess it up in the second half

[gilded ember]

idk why they added a ||goofy evil villain with the main villain just being introduced||

[normal hare]

i haven't watched the "1st ep" but that was my main worry really

sometimes with original anime they just cook too much

for as much as i liked re creators, the middle part was hella big question marks

[boreal rover]

yeah def relatable lol

[gilded ember]

girls band cry is still the peak of original anime which is insane man

[boreal rover]

uma musume cinderella gray is also this season but I haven't finished part 1 yet lol

Studio Chizu has a movie coming out in november called Hateshinaki Scarlet, which I'm excited for

[normal hare]

considering that i didn't have that much expectations initially, it's crazy that i put it up there with stuff like samurai champloo, code geass, and plastic memories

oh and vivy fluorite

it actually is a masterclass in the band genre

and i ain't even that big of a drama fan

[boreal rover]

I did a rewatch of vivy recently and it's just as good as I remembered

[normal hare]

i'm a sucker for a futuristic ai utopian society kinda story

just scratches all those itches

[boreal rover]

there's like 3 of those android shows this season

[normal hare]

don't get it too often as well

[boreal rover]

and none of them really hit the spot but they seem fun

[normal hare]

we got 3???

i don't know the other 2

[boreal rover]

yeah one dystopia, one kid android, one maid android

let me find the name of the two

[normal hare]

yeah towa no yuugure was kinda what i was hoping that it'd give me a similar feeling

[boreal rover]

https://myanimelist.net/anime/60781/Alma-chan_wa_Kazoku_ni_Naritai

[normal hare]

what in the maid gundam LOL

[boreal rover]

https://myanimelist.net/anime/59484/Kikaijikake_no_Marie

and of course Towa no Yuugure

[normal hare]

yeah definitely not scratching that itch

[boreal rover]

haha

plastic memories and vivy and such are hard to surpass

[normal hare]

yeah i probably should lower my expectations

[boreal rover]

when the same trope is done over and over, comparisons to the top is inevitable

[normal hare]

it's just always such a blessing to get great anime originals every so often

they usually hit way much harder than any adaptations

the element of something be unexpectedly great is always a fun one

[gilded ember]

my favorite show this season so far is the mangaka one
https://myanimelist.net/anime/57859

[normal hare]

also don't have any silly spoilers to deal with

[normal hare]

this very much is up your alley lmao, cgdct

[gilded ember]

yup its show yuri glimpses too

showing

[normal hare]

probably good ol shoujo ai

i probably should give that "horror" yuri one a go

[gilded ember]

tbh its fine so far, especially when i was shittin my pants before watching it

[normal hare]

Lmao

A more heavier yuri story is always welcome in my books especially when most are usually just fluffy and lighthearted

[gilded ember]

the manga art was insane for this show but idk if the animation is living up the hype tho

im just watching for the cast tbh becuz its stacked

[gilded ember]

nah man thats a flex

[ebon thunder]

Actually miku nakano is named after her

(fact)

Bravo negi

[calm frigate]

2nd season can happen because there's enough chapters including the main story of the arc but for 3rd season at least in the manga it's just starting to get really interesting on the 3rd arc

man i hope they're doing ok

[normal hare]

you just hope it's not another berserk or hxh

another masterpiece just screwed over by health

[calm frigate]

my friends are like "for hunter x i'll stop hoping. if something appears then it's great"

i think the mangaka of detective conan too

[normal hare]

yeah i'm just gonna be happy with what i've gotten from it

if you want to think about it the anime can be treated as the ending

[calm frigate]

thats true

for frieren they can do like an open ended ending for the 2nd season kinda like how 1st season ended like no concrete idea on the next adventure they'll get

Amazing

[ebon thunder]

Same mangaka?

[normal hare]

nah just a collab

[rustic lynx]

If anyone needs a quick guide to the personalities of the entire Bandori cast

[boreal rover]

in theory, the second season if it follows the pacing of first season with similar episode count, should get up to ||goddess monument or cover that whole arc too|| and as you say, afterwards there's not much to go on until the current arc finishes.

[boreal rover]

funniest part

[calm frigate]

i'm thinking of || the city of gold || i think they can do up to that then supposedly || the mage assassinators || part might be 3rd season

[gilded ember]

ngl man breaking the 4th wall joke is pretty mid cuz its overdone now

[boreal rover]

Who Made Me A Princess adaptation actually got better after 2-3 episodes, good job studio. The Japanese dub isn't as perfectly synced as it could be but it's good.

it deviates quite a bit early on from the manhwa (never read the novel) but the direction is more or less the same after that and they made it a native reincarnation||/clairevoyance/multi-timeline|| and it's a good royal fantasy show, removed all the isekai aspects it seems, so far anyway.

[gilded ember]

yukino, yui and anna?!? HOLY BASED

[boreal rover]

might explain why he's a hikikomori

yukino and yui figures I get given the show is being produced by the same studio as oregairu, but anna...?

also kinda empty of substance all those words ||that boiled down to just "go touch grass", "just be yourself", and "have sex"||

top tier girl designs though

hopefully it's not wasted on this anime

[gilded ember]

right now atleast i still think ||this mc is kinda cringe and even the way the side characters glaze him is too much but i think we're still missing alot of context into how it got here anyways||

[boreal rover]

It's just the dialogues are not really clever or engaging yet

Saw the your letter fan screening, think the trailer was posted here awhile back

Overall a pretty cliche and incredibly slice of life movie, nothing too special but there was a very satisfying twist and ending to the series, production was pretty great but like the issues I have with donghua, just lack a lot of that Japanese anime soul, 6/10

initial thought: woah thats a lot of trash for japan

second thought: wait thats a whole day of trash collecting

[austere skiff]

also: inspired by trash taste anime club

nukitashi is actually peak wtf

just binged the first 5 episodes and im so confused

why is it good

[gilded ember]

looks too wild for me

[normal hare]

There's a reason the vn was so popular

Even got a sequel

[boreal rover]

because once you get past the sexuality, there's some fucked up and deep themes to be explored perhaps 😄

also passione hasn't made a bad anime in a while

[normal hare]

Yeah the main character is just too loaded he even gets made fun for it

[ebon thunder]

So basically it's like monogatari series (I don't watch both)

[normal hare]

It's kind of funny, may I ask for one last thing completely unexpected surprise reveal this week was ||the pink haired girl is isekaijin with a goddess link of some kind, though I guess the ED being all her with an alice in wonderland theme to it might have been a hint||, meanwhile last boss ||seems to be going the other direction of is it really isekai||

last boss is a surprisingly good show so far, I like it
also its OP has no right going as hard as it does

If my best girl loses, it's rigged

If my best girl wins, it's fair

[normal hare]

Only way to look at it really

[gilded ember]

man the more i watch ramune the more this mc gets ||insufferable|| wth

[boreal rover]

yeah I don't get who wrote this MC this way lol

[gilded ember]

its actually pissing me off

[boreal rover]

since yosuga no sora came up here some days ago, I'm reminded of how the MC in that show was written (for the anime, not the VN)

there's always these two extremes of characters for male main characters in a harem-like or school-based love polygon romance or romcom

either you get the wimpy hapless loser

or you get basically a ||fuccboi|| that wants to collect them all

||this MC seems to be written to be somewhere in between the two, popular, has all the girls, but isn't like dating all the girls||

||so it ends up being as annoying as the two extremes combined 😄||

the monologues and dialogues are really what is pissing me off

[gilded ember]

kenta dont deserve this man

[gilded ember]

nono i dont think this is the right one its the ||nonchalant boys who dont care about having a relationship|| because that archetype is pretty rare

but even that isnt that bad

[normal hare]

I have not watched a single ep of ramune but I really can't think of many fuccboi mcs

Most of them are wimpy or shy cause it's more relatable

[gilded ember]

yep basically and most of those fuccbois are pretty misoginistics

[normal hare]

Not sure if misogynistic is the right term, feels more like materialistic

Cause some girls can be that way too but I wouldn't say they're misandrists

It's more like they care about status, looks, etc.

Aight 1st ep at the gym imma jam this out

[gilded ember]

its more so like treating them like a side fling for me to term it to that

[normal hare]

Yeah it's a status thing

More flings just means you're that dude at the top of the food chain

Also side gripe is anyone just tired of the social hierarchies in highschool anime made so prominent

Keep talking about how oh yeah she's the idol of our year

The unattainable queen who's great at everything

It sound so corny just talk about them normally

Ok you know what I'm hating this thing is too truel in real life

Dudes were always talking about the prettiest and handsomest people in the grade

[gilded ember]

thats just how they create fun especially when phones are mostly banned in our highschool era

[normal hare]

They were?

[gilded ember]

everyone is just trying anything in hs man especially when thats the time when ur free to do anything still

[normal hare]

Feel like that's becoming a bit more common nowadays

[gilded ember]

well in my case yea

[normal hare]

Yeah tbf we had phones and people would still talk about this

I guess it's just when it's exaggerated in anime it becomes a bit corny

I was just in my unc phase for a bit we were no different

[normal hare]

alright chitose kun ep 1 finally done after much procrastination,
first of all that 49 minutes premiere is bs lol they had the VAs doing random stuff for the last 16 min
||overall decently enjoyable episode, all the girls seem pretty interesting in their own right, even yuuko has a good head on her shoulders even if she acts a bit goofy. I'm still a bit mixed on chitose, don't really have an issue yet of him being a fuccboi but i just don't like how they've portrayed him too much. We get these random scenes of him being introspective when he's looking down at the city. During his first meeting with neet boy or even after that it would've been nice to get that very same introspective monologue, instead dude is talking about chilling with yua after that and the scenery of the sunset like what. I'm just getting mixed signals of how they're trying to portray his character to the audience, at times it feels like he's socially aware of his standing yet in situations like this he seems so blur.||

[gilded ember]

the introduction for neet boy is next ep

apothecary diaries s3 production started!

||he's confident, popular, sociable and knows his way around situations, top of the social food chain kind of person, but I just don't get where they are going with the character when it comes to his monologues and then the way he interacts with others (dialogues)||

apparently all the Japanese fans of the series keep saying it'll get better around/after vol 3, but that's like at least ep8-9 onward

everything else about the show from character designs to the animation and the OST and even the voice acting are pretty much near the top of this season though

just the writing fails to deliver.

[boreal rover]

might be a spoiler sort of, but there's actually FOUR android/robot-related shows this season

Shuumatsu Touring is also one

Sunrise making isekai! (again!)

the animation budget in this is insane

also pretty cool 80's/90's style to the shading that you don't see much of anymore

[rustic lynx]

So since this is Sunrise, does it take place in the Love Live universe?

[boreal rover]

lol of all sunrise IPs... hahaha

[gilded ember]

i was going to watch it then i saw the isekai tag, i was like it must be generic lol

[boreal rover]

then again it is the studio that more or less invented the genre way back in the day

Escaflowne, Inuyasha...

[gilded ember]

that's definitely a solid resume

[normal hare]

Yeah I'm getting mixed signals

~ Ok I just watched the video and I think I'm spot on

[normal hare]

Bro you said the same thing last time 😭

Unc is uncing

Not word for word but pretty close

[rustic lynx]

I switched up dark hair and brown hair this time

White hair girl is a vtuber, already a W in my book but that just means she's gonna lose in the end

[normal hare]

Time to throw stereotypes out the door it's a new age

[gilded ember]

ok maybe i lied i just kept up with the show just now and its actually good, maybe it's just me getting that isekai itch

also ur not lying the animation is really amazing

[silk bridge]

I've said it before and I'll say it again

Oda is on fire atm

this is the peakest one piece has peaked so far

[rustic lynx]

An actual quote from the MyGo special video

Damn, Tomori really wanted that rock

Blue Box Manga spoilers ||is the author going to ever stop hurting Hina? why is there a whole new story direction of her basically getting another chance? ||

[normal hare]

||think it's necessary to finally get her over it||

||curious to see how they resolve this any differently from the first rejection, you know I'm actually pretty cool with it, not often you see someone get rejected twice||

Cute

Also break next week

[gilded ember]
