Anime and Manga

[sick elbow]

just reprint the damn thing

[keen solstice]

Yeah that's good

[humble timber]

because YT cracks down on those pretty quickly

[keen solstice]

Free watching

[humble timber]

it's not like DVDs are that expensive

and thus, bootlegs

[sick elbow]

oh that was targeted towards manga

[humble timber]

those awful awful bootlegs

same thing

[sick elbow]

but it applies to both

those making manga bootlegs deserve another layer of hell though

[humble timber]

manga bootleg?

those exists?

[keen solstice]

https://hianime.to/home

[humble timber]

how do you bootleg that?

[sick elbow]

oh they do

[keen solstice]

For me this is working

[humble timber]

sell printed scans?

[sick elbow]

nah

just use the cheapest printer you have

[humble timber]

[sick elbow]

just for reference

its CRAZY

in english nothing is save

[humble timber]

what is wrong with the one on the right?

[sick elbow]

even the newest releases get more and more bootlegs

[keen solstice]

0_0

How much is that

[sick elbow]

welcome to hell buddy

[humble timber]

it just looks off

TF

[keen solstice]

Hate to say it but demon slayer is not even worth it

[sick elbow]

if youre unlucky the same as an legit set

[humble timber]

[keen solstice]

damn...

[sick elbow]

its not mine just a quick image from google to show the assholery

[humble timber]

wow

I'm so out of the loop

but seriously

bootleg manga

speaking of which

my local library actually has a manga section

pretty nifty

reminds me of the manga cafe of Asia

and seeing the manga section in B&L gives me hope

what gives me the most hope is that HK and Friends are now mainstream in my daughter's school

I swear, HK is the gateway to #1249251565416480818

and I live in the middle of nowhere Iowa...

[keen solstice]

I can buy manga but like online otherwise I don't think it's possible

Well not gonna do it

It's pointless

[grim zealot]

i can buy those in nearly every book store there

not bootlegs ones

I'd like to buy all demon slayer manga just for the looks on my future shelf

[keen solstice]

Why

It's not even that good

Mid

[grim zealot]

because i like it very much

[sick elbow]

Mid to one is still great to another

[keen solstice]

Btw

I don't understand one thing

Like chapters comes one by one

Then like

How manga got published

And how many chapters one manga contains

[grim zealot]

they split manga into episodes

[sick elbow]

In japan many/most manga get published in magazines on a weekly or monthly basis

Usually ~20 page chapter mangas are weekly basis
30+ page chapters are monthly

And how long it goes depends on several factors including the mangakas storyboard, how its received and the publisher

[grim zealot]

isn't like gege draws 7 pages a week

[keen solstice]

No

He did once

I think

Due to health issues

[sick elbow]

Like if your manga is extremly well received and increases the sold volume count of the magazine and the manga volumes some editors and publishers push the mangaka to just go on with the manga and drag things out

[grim zealot]

ion gonna read jjk manga anyways

[keen solstice]

Oh

[sick elbow]

Health issues and to some part just beeing fed up with JJK

The JJK hes writing isnt even necessarily what he wanted to draw but what his editors and publishers want

[keen solstice]

Well it's official now manga ending on 29th

[sick elbow]

If it was up to him it had went down a completly different route AND ended long ago

[keen solstice]

September

[grim zealot]

when gojo will be back

[sick elbow]

Thank god it is

JJK is one of the worst manga Ive ever read

[keen solstice]

Idk what to think

He did said

There will be 2 possibilities

Everyone dying, yuji surviving

One character dying and everyone surviving

Rn both possibilities have less chance

[grim zealot]

why not just kill yuji

[keen solstice]

I don't mind

It will be perfect end

[sick elbow]

The newest chapter is such an asspull once the hype dies off and you realize how stupid it actually is

[keen solstice]

Lol nobara suddenly coming back

I mean not surprised

[grim zealot]

wasnttshe dead

[sick elbow]

The only thing certain is that Gege will make the community seethe

And thats the only reason I still read

[keen solstice]

Tbh

Jjk has one bs which works everything

Binding vows

[sick elbow]

Cuz holy shit the JJK community is just a mental asylum

[keen solstice]

Like gege can't think or feeling lazy

He will say binding vow and do bs

[sick elbow]

The Sukuna showdown at times is more light novel than manga

[keen solstice]

Lol I liked it because their comments are funny

[sick elbow]

Dude cant write a cohesive story even if his life depended on it

[keen solstice]

Well jjk community in spoiling is on top

[sick elbow]

Thats why I 'love' them as well

Sometimes I wish we had a way to see the blacklisted words of the server

[keen solstice]

Nvm

U can't see unless u r mod Or owner

[sick elbow]

Time to become a mod then lol

[keen solstice]

Lmao what requirements and where to apply, if u know then tell me

I will apply too

[keen solstice]

@humble timber

Saint cecilia and paster Lawrence

If u want anime to watch

Genre- Wholesome

[humble timber]

nice, 12 episodes

[humble timber]

I find the premise to be kind of odd

[keen solstice]

Why

[humble timber]

love story between a saint and a pastor

just doesn't quite work like that

[keen solstice]

It's not real work

It's another world

Fiction

Everything works

[humble timber]

but it's just too far off base

[keen solstice]

Well it's wholesome for sure

And funny too

[humble timber]

anyways

it's cute

I'll put it on my queue

[keen solstice]

Nice

[sick elbow]

Omg I may or may not will go completly overbard

Theres a 22% coupon for ALL english books from a big german retailer

And that includes EVERYTHING: releaed, to be released and even already reduced books!

Im already at 500€ post coupon 💀

[sick elbow]

well that didnt work out as planned, coupon was capped at 110€ discount so I had to ditch the Box sets

[keen solstice]

Sadness

[sick elbow]

fr

I was so gunning for the Assassination Classroom Box Set
it was already reduced and wouldve gotten the 22% on top bringing it down to 3,5€ per Volume

but World Trigger takes priority
Ive been waiting to get it for too long

[sick elbow]

And another 18% coupon lmao
Well now Ive basically got everything I wanted

Good that I have literally no space anymore for any of the manga I bought

[keen solstice]

Can I get pic of ur collection?

[sick elbow]

I can make some

Ill have to add some notes though

Most of manga are german and some titles are different in english

[keen solstice]

How much it cost to buy sets?

[sick elbow]

'Die Stadt in der es mich nicht gibt' is Erased

'Bright Sun Dark Shadows' is Summertime Rendering

The volumes between Jojos & GTO are manga based on Lovecrafts stories. Check them out theyre gorgeous and terriyfing

[sick elbow]

box sets or just complete series in general?

the most expensive manga in my collection is Magi The Labyrinth of Magic but mostly due to the publisher Kazé having been bought out by Crunchyroll and new prints beeing made with a new spine and the Crunhy logo

everyone that has started collecting the Kazé variant is hunting like mad to finish it with Kazé due to the spine change

oh and I have Alice in Borderland twice because... well I initally bought the german but found the english on a trip in London.
The beautiful and a 3 for 2 deal made me do a "whoopsie"

no regrets though

[keen solstice]

Series

[keen solstice]

Well understandable

I also wanna have that hobby

But that hobby gonna cost me alot

So I can't afford it

[sick elbow]

to be honest this probably isnt a good question towards a german

we have the so called "Buchpreisbindung" which mean book price binding

our books have the same price everywhere and arent allowed to go on sale for I think atleast two years
Manga literally never get sale so it doesnt matter if you buy something now or in 10 years as long as its still in print

english series go on sale here though as they dont fall under that law which I why I get some series that way

and its a blessing

there are quite a few box sets in english that we dont get and in a sale theyre SO MUCH CHEAPER

like currently I could get the complete english Assassination Classroom box set for HALF the price of the german single volumes as we dont have a complete set for the series

but I must also say that while Im not rich I basically have no expenses so I can splurge on my hobbies

[keen solstice]

How much?

In numbered?

[sick elbow]

Assassination Classroom 21 volumes total
German singles 147€ no box set
English singles ~8€ (now 6,5€) box set 126€ (now 103€)

Bleach 74 volumes total
German singles out of print (OOP) 800€+ on the used market total, 26 Omnibuses 3in1 for 12€ = 312€, no box set
English singles & omnis not really determinable they arent readily available here, 3 Box sets for 153€ (now 125,50€), 180€ (now 147,50€) & 170€ (now 139,50€) = 503€ (now 398,5€)
English singles may be more expensive than the german Omnis but the quality difference and reading experience between singles & omnis makes it worth it imo

Claymore 27 volumes total
German singles OOP like 400€+ used, no box set
English singles idk, box set 190€ (now 156€)

we only have a few box sets here and comparisons can be hard due to this
and considering that I only buy english volumes when there are sales my perceiption is a bit skewed as well

Omnibusses are by far the best bang for your buch but I dislike reading them as I get cramps due to how thick they are despite the usually thin paper

[keen solstice]

Too expensive for me

Especially when I can read all for free online

[keen solstice]

Idk if he gonna manipulate me

[keen solstice]

Can I get some anime recommendations ?

[balmy citrus]

What genre

[keen solstice]

Action, badass

Also no power of friendship

[pure isle]

The wrong way to use healing magic

I don’t think that’s rly power of friendship

He has friends he helps… but they all have major powers of their own if that makes sense

I’m bad at explaining lol

[sick elbow]

Chainsaw Man

I also really like Inuyashiki but its not everyones cup of tea

[keen solstice]

I already read manga

Idk if watching anime will be worth

[keen solstice]

Not my taste

Mc kinda u know

Have negative personality

[humble timber]

Guess Oshi no Ko just finished: https://www.crunchyroll.com/news/latest/2024/11/14/oshi-no-ko-manga-end-aka-akasaka-new-fantasy-series

[pure isle]

I thought it was really good

[humble timber]

I might just read the manga rather than waiting for the anime adaptation

[keen solstice]

Will giver it try

[humble timber]

I didn't think the first season was done very well

[keen solstice]

It's already anime

Done with season 1

[pure isle]

But there’s also solo leveling which is PEAK anime and god of highschool if u haven’t seen that

[keen solstice]

Nope

Read solo leveling manwha

That is peak

[humble timber]

I think there were rumors for 3 seasons?

[pure isle]

Yesss

[humble timber]

Not sure if I really want to wait

[keen solstice]

Idk, voice actor of one main character just passed away

Maybe it will take some time now

[humble timber]

What the

More reasons to find scans

[keen solstice]

Lol

Well I will watch season 1 tho

[humble timber]

I already did

[keen solstice]

What genre u looking for

In anime

[humble timber]

Nothing right now

I'm so swamped after finishing this project

[keen solstice]

Ic I have anime in mind but always got distracted by novels/manga

[humble timber]

Other work piled up while I was doing the project

[keen solstice]

Damn

Sadness

Ig again busy?

[humble timber]

Life

[humble timber]

Yeah

[keen solstice]

True

[sick elbow]

The novel is even better

[keen solstice]

It might be but manhwa is already completed

So no need to read it

Ig

[sick elbow]

The novel came before the manwha lol

[keen solstice]

Ik

But I read solo leveling very late

And it was totally random

it was my best experience

[dark shard]

TMS Entertainment will distribute the animated science fiction film “AKIRA” on YouTube, a must-see for anime lovers who have never seen AKIRA before. I plan to watch AKIRA for the first time in a long time.
URL for limited time AKIRA distribution:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qtqaO2QUAYA
Note: Pacific Standard Time is supposed to be -16 hours from Japan Standard Time.

The following is an excerpt from the original text:
The original author Katsuhiro Otomo himself directed and wrote the screenplay for the theatrical animation “AKIRA”, which was produced by Tokyo Movie Shinsha (now TMS Entertainment). Set in Neo-Tokyo in the year 2019, “Akira” is a milestone in science fiction animation, depicting the fierce battle among juvenile delinquents, the military, and guerrillas over the mysterious “Akira,” with stunning artwork and music. More than 30 years after its release, the film continues to influence creators in Japan and abroad. Live chat will be open for the first premiere delivery. Please take this opportunity to experience this legendary work as many times as you like. Viewing period: Saturday, November 30, 21:00 - Friday, December 6, 23:59. *Japan Standard Time.

Some of the films may contain expressions that may be considered inappropriate in light of today's awareness of human rights. However, in respect of the historical value of the works and the historical background of the time when they were published, we have decided to distribute them as they were at the time of publication, with as little alteration as possible. We appreciate your understanding in this matter.

I don't know if YouTube's automatic translation will help viewers.

[dark shard]

The sci-fi anime "AKIRA" will be available in about 50 minutes.
Although the story may be difficult to understand with automatic translation, those who like manga and anime should take this opportunity to watch it.

[humble timber]

Ooo, this looks like a good one to watch eventually: https://youtu.be/bVrzN-r4MKA

[keen solstice]

Trailer?

Or its already release?

[humble timber]

I think trailer

[keen solstice]

Ic

[rose marlin]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Souwq8yepWQ

I‘m also extremely hyped for this one

Gonna be epic

[keen solstice]

@sick elbow

Man read

On my way to see mom

Its totally cute and wholesome

[sick elbow]

Ill add it to the list but I got so much to read itll take a while

[keen solstice]

Food Wars!: Shokugeki no Soma

@humble timber

This anime might give u what u want

[humble timber]

Already watched it

[keen solstice]

Hmmmmm

[humble timber]

Definitely very very good

[keen solstice]

Ik but i dont think its completed

Idk why

[humble timber]

Glad all 86 episodes were out

[humble timber]

It's completed

[keen solstice]

Since when?

How many seasons?

[humble timber]

Anime ended in 2020

[humble timber]

5

[keen solstice]

I only watch 3

I watched it long time ago

[humble timber]

Right

It felt like a long time ago

But life sort of blurred during the pandemic

[keen solstice]

Yeah

[humble timber]

I finally finished 2.5D Seduction (season 1) last night

Wasn't quite expecting it to take the harem route

But it definitely offered some nice perspective on cosplay in general

But due to the harem element, I think I won't be doing the manga read

[keen solstice]

Since when u do manga read?

I thought u only in anime?

[humble timber]

Plus I read that the manga had more lewd scenes

[humble timber]

I just caught up on this one: https://myanimelist.net/anime/54431/Toaru_Ossan_no_VRMMO_Katsudouki

[keen solstice]

I think u show me this

I will watch this after one piece

[humble timber]

I shared it on #anime-expo-2025

[keen solstice]

Yeah figured

[humble timber]

Don't, the anime is super behind

That's why I had to read

[keen solstice]

What u r talking Bout?

Its one arc behind only?

Also i havent watch one peice like after 2022

So i got many unwatch episodes

[humble timber]

Far more

Volume 13 right now

And the English translation got to volume 11

91 chapters available in English

I think season 1 only got to around chapter 20ish

[humble timber]

So yeah, I'm usually too lazy to read the comic

But when absolutely necessary, I read too

[keen solstice]

Hmmmmmm

[humble timber]

Plus I enjoy the VA in anime

[keen solstice]

I watch in sub

[humble timber]

Seiyuu are just a different breed

[humble timber]

Yeah, I don't do dubs

My Japanese is good enough to rely on subs

Anyways, another reason why I don't like long series

[keen solstice]

My Japanese becomes good after watching anime in sub

Atleast some words

[humble timber]

I often have to jump to manga to get past the season finale cliff hangers

[keen solstice]

I watch few series like series which refused animate anime

Like black clover

[humble timber]

And some series are really bad at lining up the anime with the manga

[keen solstice]

Last episode was in 2022

[keen solstice]

Agreed

Tokyo ghoul for example

[humble timber]

Oh gawd

Anyways, Food Wars was very good

Especially the cooking parts

I really hope my daughter would grow up having discriminating taste

Maybe not as crazy as Erina

[keen solstice]

Lmao

[humble timber]

But knows good food from bad

Problems with raising kids in a rural area of US

[keen solstice]

I will add food wars again

To watch

[humble timber]

All my daughter wants to eat right now are burgers and chicken nuggets

[keen solstice]

And complete

[keen solstice]

Damn

[humble timber]

But even then, I'm secretly training her palate with different cheeses

And different burger patties

[keen solstice]

Nice

[keen solstice]

Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid

This anime is also nice

[humble timber]

Oh, that's an old one

[keen solstice]

But good one

[humble timber]

When Funimation was still around

[keen solstice]

Wait funimation is closed?

[humble timber]

Exact dates are kind of off

[keen solstice]

Oh

[humble timber]

But Funimation got swallowed up by Crunchy

[keen solstice]

Crunchy was really nothing when it was covid

After covid

Ir become big

[livid sparrow]

Aside from fan service, I agree. I only read the manga though

I'm right now watching Owari no Seraph

[humble timber]

Even the fan service was quite "fair"

The amount of male nudity was quite impressive

[livid sparrow]

For the anime?

[humble timber]

Yeah

[livid sparrow]

Gotcha

[humble timber]

Clothes were flying off for both the male and female characters

[livid sparrow]

I probably will eventually watch the anime lol

Got a massive backlog of anime to get through first

[humble timber]

Don't we all

That and #gaming

[livid sparrow]

Haha

Only game I play these days is wuwa.

Oh wow

[humble timber]

Infinity Nikki for me

[livid sparrow]

Wuwa is talked about there too

Nice

Wait I gotta share something there

Anyways back to topic. If you haven't seen Kyoukai no Kanata, I recommend it

Very enjoyable

[humble timber]

I haven't seen it, I'll add it to my queue

Nice, looks like my cup of tea

[livid sparrow]

Let me know if you see it

[humble timber]

Will do

[keen solstice]

I watch it, and it was okay series

Not bad, not good

Normal

[livid sparrow]

Yea it's not the best but I'm enjoying it

[keen solstice]

Black clover is back

Finally

After 4 freaking years

[humble timber]

This was my favorite for this season (Q1 2026): https://myanimelist.net/anime/61782/Kirei_ni_Shitemoraemasu_ka

The story was refreshing

There was just enough fan service without being overtly annoying

[keen solstice]

Ngl this is first time i am hearing about this anime

[humble timber]

A close second from this season was this Isekai about production magic: https://myanimelist.net/anime/61549/Okiraku_Ryoushu_no_Tanoshii_Ryouchi_Bouei__Seisankei_Majutsu_de_Na_mo_Naki_Mura_wo_Saikyou_no_Jousai_Toshi_ni

[keen solstice]

Ik this one

[humble timber]

We'll see if it gets a season 2, but the story ended at a pretty good break point

[keen solstice]

Interested in

Actually i think i have read manga

[humble timber]

Third place went to another Isekai: https://myanimelist.net/anime/60460/Hell_Mode__Yarikomizuki_no_Gamer_wa_Hai_Settei_no_Isekai_de_Musou_suru

[keen solstice]

Frieren: Beyond Journey's End

[humble timber]

Season 2 is airing in July

Clearly all 24 episodes were drawn in 1 shot

[keen solstice]

Is currently i think best in slice of life

[humble timber]

The story just climaxed as the protagonist is getting crazy powerful

Looks like he's going to be taking on the Demon Lord

[misty bane]

Glad they are continuing right away, ending was ass, but enjoyable anime

[keen solstice]

Looks interesting

I will put it onmy watch list

[humble timber]

Very typical progression of an Isekai storyline

[humble timber]

Yes, season 2 just wrapped up as well with only 10 episodes

Clearly it's getting a season 3

[keen solstice]

Ye

[humble timber]

Can't believe they ended it at a literal bridge

[keen solstice]

I didnt watched it yet

Planned to get all episodes dropped first

[humble timber]

Clearly still a ton of bad guys to beat up still

Even after the hero died

[keen solstice]

I mean he did beat an biggest bad guy

Actually with party

Not alone

[humble timber]

I thought the whole show is refreshing because clearly the story doesn't just end after the hero defeats the demon lord

[keen solstice]

It was beginning

[humble timber]

And Frieren is just so friggin cute

[misty bane]

Was amazed of enjoying more "Isekai office worker, the other world's books depend on the bean counter" than "There was a cute girl in the hero's party, so I tried confessing to her" (their episodes came out on the same day)

[humble timber]

I'm so tempted to start buying her merch

[humble timber]

I hated both

[sick elbow]

Now someone do the same for romance pls and dont end it the moment they get together

[keen solstice]

Whats stopping u

[humble timber]

ROFL, you mean like a daily life of doing house chores?

[humble timber]

Space

[misty bane]

That's fair, both are on the weird AF Isekai anime of this season

[keen solstice]

Thats an valid reason

[humble timber]

I have so many Miku figures

[misty bane]

An all time legend (Miku) vs the newcomer (Frieren)

[humble timber]

In terms of BL, I definitely preferred the Noble's Vacation more this season over the Office Worker: https://myanimelist.net/anime/60071/Odayaka_Kizoku_no_Kyuuka_no_Susume

[sick elbow]

Horimiya was pretty good in that regard. Just because they got together early doesnt mean there wont be any conflicts

[humble timber]

I think people just want the icing without the cake

[misty bane]

Yes by a lot, even though the bl was set to low it was noticeable

[humble timber]

The cute girl one had really interesting art style, but the storyline was just awful

I think too much was left out of the manga and watching the anime alone wasn't enough

[sick elbow]

I just want something different than the constant 'will they? Will they not?' For 200 chapters/episodes knowing theyll get together from chapter/episode 1

[humble timber]

There was just too much gap in the story and I found the protagonist to be very very annoying

Especially that masked hero character

[sick elbow]

I thought Tonikawa may scratch that itch but it just all fluff

[misty bane]

I didn't have enough time to watch as many as I wanted this season

[humble timber]

The Office Worker was just way too overt with the BL to my liking

[misty bane]

And then I get lazy and just don't come back for them till next year

The one of death game something was so insanely good

But I got lazy and didn't watch the last 2 episodes

[humble timber]

I actually didn't follow that one

[sick elbow]

Usually wait till a season is finished before watching them cuz my scatterbrain cant remember shit

[humble timber]

I've been busy trying to still work through the backlog of ones I wanted to see still:

[humble timber]

I've been watching them daily during lunch

Beats watching the news

[sick elbow]

I usually read manga

[humble timber]

I'm seriously trying hard to escape from reality since the start of this year

Anime is definitely a good place to be

[sick elbow]

But I kinda wanna start to actually read again during lunch

[humble timber]

Maybe that's why I liked the Washing Lady story so much

Just so simple

Anyways, nice to see everyone again

We'll regroup after Q2

[misty bane]

Beyond the boundary is so good

[keen solstice]

I read some of these manga but never imagined they will get adaptation

[keen solstice]

Yeee

[humble timber]

I just saw episode 1 got posted. Can't believe it's back with a season 4 and 60 more episodes

I'm not sure if I want to catch up

I think I stopped around episode 20 in season 1?

[keen solstice]

Bro u r watching peak

[keen solstice]

I stopped at season 2

[humble timber]

No sure, but so many Isekai shows have made fun of slime since this show

[keen solstice]

This one make isekai genre popular

[humble timber]

I thought that was Inuyasha

[keen solstice]

I meant for genz

[humble timber]

Haha

Dating myself

[keen solstice]

But yeah this one is super popular

[humble timber]

I guess I'll add it to my list

Plenty of time to catch up with a 60 episode season

[keen solstice]

Yeah i think previous seasons have 12 or 24 episodes

Not sure which number

Also there are movies

(Non canon)

[humble timber]

24 per season:

[keen solstice]

Yeah

[humble timber]

Guess I almost finished with season 1 before quitting

[keen solstice]

Nice

[humble timber]

I bet the post is just full of hot air

I highly doubt a 60 episode season

[keen solstice]

I stopped at season 2 since i watch in 2022

[keen solstice]

Hmmm i watch one piece

Soooooo

[humble timber]

[keen solstice]

Numbers arent problem

I did it in lockdown

[humble timber]

Just a lot of fillers

[keen solstice]

Fillers are actually related to main story

[humble timber]

Sure

[keen solstice]

Still i think naruto got most fillers

+bleach

[humble timber]

It just got worse and worse

I'm like, which character are we following now?

Since I wasn't keeping up that tightly

I just kept getting confused and gave up

[keen solstice]

Worse part about this is that something important is going then next epsiode we are totally somewhere else

[keen solstice]

I skip

[humble timber]

Guess I wasn't the only one that was lost

[keen solstice]

I dont have patience

[humble timber]

Skipping wasn't exactly an option when it was airing

Just saying

[keen solstice]

Ohhh

Lmao

[keen solstice]

Try black clover

Its 160 episodes but one season

(Not completed)

[humble timber]

I like my 12 episode brainless Isekai shows

[keen solstice]

Try skeleton knight in another world

I liked it

12 episodes atleast till now

(Season 2 not confirmed yet)

But i liked the anime season one

[keen solstice]

Anyone following witch hat Atelier

It seems an awesome anime

It took more then 7 years to animate

[keen solstice]

Another recom if anyone interested

The Way of the Househusband

[sick elbow]

The anime is a more of an slide show but still very good

If you like the humor then
Life Lessons with Uramichi Oniisan and
Grand Blue Dreaming
might be to your taste as well

Oh not to forget The Fable

[misty bane]

The beggining after the end makes witch hat atelier look like sony movie

[keen solstice]

Tbate in anime has changed the story completely

Idk why they did it

[humble timber]

Adding both of these to my watch list

[keen solstice]

Fable is show?

Or movie

Oh movie

I didnt like watching movie now

Last movie i watch was avengers end game

[misty bane]

They are ruining a good story in so many ways

[keen solstice]

First animation then story

Idk how they managed to convince author

To give them this project

[humble timber]

oh man, Crunchyroll is going hard against the free anime websites

I can't seem to watch stuff for free anymore

maybe it's for the better, as I really don't have time to be watching all these animes

[sick elbow]

going against the very thing that got you big in the first place is so incredibly twisted that I cant really put it into words

[humble timber]

days of fan sub has left the building

[sick elbow]

Fansubs vanishing is one thing

everything beeing on a subscription and yet many anime not beeing available on ANY provider forcing us to pirate is a whole different topic

[keen solstice]

9anime is still working

[sick elbow]

I HAD to watch Terror in Resonance through an pirate site because not a single provider in germany had it either for sub or buy

[keen solstice]

Funny enough crunchyroll was an pirate website at first

[humble timber]

oh, they bounced back

nice

[keen solstice]

Ye

Well it doesnt matter honestly

If one falls then other will rise

Hianime was my favorite,i hope they will come back

[misty bane]

Yeah, that one got banned even in jp

[misty bane]

"I made friends with the second pretiest girl in my class" is pretty good, been reding it as it comes out, anime stays close to the story, thought thy were going to leave out some things bc it goes from candy happy to dry serious at some point but it's doing it good enough

[keen solstice]

I saw some clips

Seems kind of regret like

His ex will regret

And will try to get him back

But mc will reject him smth

[misty bane]

Just with this, you are very very far from it

[keen solstice]

Hmmm will check it out

U could try fight delivery

Its really intresting story

Mc basically delivery fight

And mc hella story

[misty bane]

Anime or manga?

[keen solstice]

He could crush metal weapons with his fist

[keen solstice]

Manga

[misty bane]

Ok ok

[humble timber]

It's my favorite one for this season

There seems to be quite a few romance animes this season

I'm still struggling to watch though

Anikai just got killed

9anime only has the newest stuff

[misty bane]

Anikai was killed by different means tho

Not by Crunchyroll*

[humble timber]

Supposedly the data center caught fire

I'm tempted to pay for CR again

[misty bane]

Saaaaame, either the other websites I find are full of ads or are token grabbers

[keen solstice]

It just an wave

Soon it will be calm

Pretty sure other sites will rise

Also i heard anikai will be revived

They will shift thier servers to another

It will take some time

They didnt get banned

[livid sparrow]

cosmic princess kaguya is worth a watch if you haven't seen it

[livid sparrow]

I'm building my own streaming service cuz I'm tired of these sites getting taken down

[keen solstice]

Share with us

When done

[livid sparrow]

Idk about that

I don't have much bandwidth to go around.

[keen solstice]

Damn

Sad

[livid sparrow]

It'll also cost me a bit of money and time to build it all out

[keen solstice]

True

Servers and stuff

[livid sparrow]

Also it's not really crunchy that's behind it. It's South Korea that's been going after these sites.
