The Anime Thread

Finally resumed watching Spy x Family. I'm up to episode 6 or 7 now and OMG I love this show way more than I thought I did before. Everything about it is so incredible, from the pacing, to the storywriting, to the characters, and even the music. I plan on binging the rest, and then I'll watch Made in Abyss season two. Once I finish that, I'll be all caught up with anime. 🥳
 
It feels like it's been a bit since I posted. I've had so much going on that I've struggled to keep up with anime, but I'm finally getting back on track.

I finished this season of Spy x Family. It's super cute with the focus more on Anya. I do sometimes wish we'd see a little more of Yor being awesome, but it's still an amazing show and I looked forward to every episode.

I'm all caught up on My Hero Academia. This season has been non-stop action and suspense. I'm anxiously awaiting the next episode.

I finished season 1 of Raven of the Inner Palace and I'm hoping for a second season. It was unique in that it focused on ancient Chinese culture. It was a beautifully drawn supernatural anime with underlying drama and a love story. It was often slow and subdued, but that worked for the main characters. I really enjoyed it.

I'm almost caught up on To Your Eternity. I've watched 9 of the 10 currently available episodes. I'm still enjoying it, but there have been a few things I've questioned in this season. I'm hoping it doesn't go downhill.

I recently started Blade of the Immortal and that has been good so far. It has a unique vibe with the art style and sound choices. Very bloody and brutal, which I don't mind at all.

Started Trigun Stampede knowing nothing about the new series other than the name (and the fact that it was one of my original favorites from when I first started watching anime decades ago. I think it's stylish, and I'm reserving my final judgments, but overall I'm very excited by what I see.
 
Time for a new anime season! I decided to give The Tale of Outcasts a chance since it's right up my alley. The story is about a young orphan girl in Victorian England befriending an immortal demon who has become bored with life. I enjoyed the first episode.

Also, can't wait to start Bungo Stray Dogs season 4. Somehow I missed the release date? I was looking it up to see when it would be available and looks like it aired Jan 5th. So I'll probably be watching that tomorrow.
 
Need a new anime to binge now that Mob and CSM are done, still watching MHA but I'm all caught up now. waiting 1 week for 1 episode is killing me especially since it has been so good this season.

Think I may give Bungo Stray Dogs or Spy x Family a a binge watch soon after hearing good things about them in this thread haha.

I love them both very much. Let us know if you try either of them out!
 
My Hero Academia returns as disaster strikes... the fight to protect what was built up and is crumbling down begins.... now.


Half the episode is a recap on the devastation that took place during the Paranormal Liberation Front raid. The chairwoman of the safety commission was taken out by a double of Re-Destro. Midnight, Majestic, Crust, and many other heroes lost their lives. But most of all, the destruction and damage to the city and civilians was catastrophic.

Uraraka and others tried to save as many as they could, but society has already begun to lose their faith in heroes. Midoriya, Bakugo, Endeavor, and others are in the hospital from the fight, recovering. Meanwhile, a newly awakened Shigaraki and others are about to raid Tartarus to try and free All For One... will they succeed?

Next time on My Hero Academia season six, episode fifteen. "Tartarus." You won't want to miss it! (y)​
 
Soo.. a few months back i took the time to fully watch Noir, an anime i just kinda stumbled on while browsing through Wikipedia, something which i do to put stuff off like usual. It's pretty good, got pretty invested from the first episode and i found the character writing and all the other lore stuff to be quite interesting. I also got really into the soundtrack, i have it on my playlist, it's so good.

This sentence made me happy and then sad. I just hope it goes out with a satisfying ending.

Same I was thinking about it at work today (lmao) and I'm so curious how they're going to resolve the
Retsuko and Haida subplot... I know a lot of people were mixed on s4, and I admit in some places I was too, but it also seemed like they were setting them up to be more equals in their relationship than they had been up to that point. Either way, Haida's crush on her and how he tries to deal with it is a longstanding plot point so something has to happen. I have no idea if I want them to end up together or not though asdkflbn

I am very invested in this 💀 I might try rewatching it before the new season comes out, but if not I can always watch the series the whole way through later!

I know what you mean. I was rooting for Haida up through season 3, but then season 4 happened and things got complicated. I'm not sure how I feel about Haida and Retsuko as a couple now, which is why I generically said "a satisfying ending". It could honestly go in multiple directions and as long as they back up their choices with decent character development then I'll be happy with the outcome.
 
I'm only to episode 10 of Spy x Family and I wanted to binge it quickly so I can get to Made in Abyss season two and be all caught up on anime.

The problem is the show is too good. I can't binge it quickly because each episode is too amazing and filled with goodness that I have to take more frequent breaks and reflect on what I watched before continuing. I can't believe they managed to make a spy show this amazing. I wonder if it'll ever surpass shows like Lupin III or Detective Conan...
 
Just found out The Witch from Mercury (appears to be?) uploaded as it airs to YouTube by the studio! I've watched the prologue and the first episode so far and I'm loving it, it's like if Gundam and Revolutionary Girl Utena had a baby.
 
What will be done by the "heroes" in the aftermath of the big battle? The fight to protect what was crumbling down continues... now.


The aftermath of the previous battle doesn't even have time to sink in, because Shigaraki and others raid Tartarus. Thanks to the Nomus they have, Tartarus's defenses are quickly breached and all the prisoners escape, including Muscular, Moonfish, Overhaul, and Lady Nagant. But most importantly, All For One is freed. Shigaraki and All For One meet up and let the prisoners raid six other prisons, so that even more villains can escape.

With chaos in the cities of Japan, the civilians are angry at the heroes more than ever, and are having to be held back. The heroes, including Endeavor, Eraser Head, Todoroki, Bakugo, and others are in the hospital receiving treatment. Most importantly here, however, Midoriya is unable to wake up while recovering.

The meaning of the word "heroes" is beginning to be questioned. What will happen next?

Next time on My Hero Academia season six, episode sixteen. "The Hellish Todoroki Family, Part Two." You won't want to miss it! (y)​

Okay apparently I was too hasty because every video after the second episode is unavailable in the West :( Bummer. At this point I might just get the Crunchyroll subscription, even though I'd really rather not. I'm kind of surprised it hasn't come to Hulu; that's where I watched SEED, and Spy x Family eventually made its why there after the season ended.
