Get ready to eat some peanuts and infiltrate the enemy ranks. Spy x Family season two is here!


Yor encounters one of the assassins who uses a sickle, and tries to be careful not to get hurt. A large crowd forms, however, and so Yor wraps it up quickly and incapacitates the man after he lets down his guard for a few seconds. Thinking the whole thing was just a circus act, the crowd disperses. Meanwhile, Anya tries again and again to find Yor to help her, but ends up enjoying the cruise with Loid. They decide to attend a fireworks show together. At the same time, Yor and the family she's trying to protect are about to be targeted by multiple assassins... just how will they respond?

Next time on Spy x Family season two, episode eight. "The Symphony Upon the Ship/Sis' Herbal Tea." You won't want to miss it! (y)

 
Get ready for some sorcery! Jujutsu Kaisen season two is here!


Itadori walks around aimlessly as he tries to reconcile from the fact that Sukuna used his body for senseless murder. Meanwhile, a half-alive and burnt Nanami continues walking until he passes Mahito, and engages some Curses in battle. He continues to chop away, until, at last they're all gone. Mahito catches him off guard, however. Itadori walks downstairs and sees the end of their conversation. Nanami says, "It's up to you now," to Itadori before he's exploded by Mahito's strength. Nanami is now dead. Angrier than ever before, Itadori engages Mahito in battle. They begin a no-holds barred battle with each other, swinging punches left and right.

We get a flashback that Nobara had previously encountered Mahito and was fighting him... just what will come of this?

Next time on Jujutsu Kaisen season two, episode nineteen. "Right and Wrong Part Two." You won't want to miss it! (y)

 
Get ready to defend and slay! The Rising Of The Shield Hero season three is here!


Naofumi has everyone split up to chase after Gaelion. Meanwhile, Filo starts going bonkers crazy after being sick for awhile. Naofumi finds out that Wyndia can learn magic. Naofumi, Raphtalia, Sadeena, Ren, Wyndia, and Eclair venture further into a cave where Gaelion currently is. However, once they encounter him, Filo meets up with him despite Atla and the others trying to stop her. Gaelion swallows Filo and combines her strength with his, turning him into the Emperor Dragon. Naofumi and company struggle against this mighty foe, and the Emperor Dragon uses Naofumi's shield to become even stronger. Then he unleashes a devastating blast at everyone. Having survived the blast mostly unharmed, Naofumi tries to protect the younger party members with every shield in his arsenal. The Emperor Dragon unleashes another blast that breaks through them all and threatens to consume Naofumi as well... just what will come of this?

Next time on The Rising Of The Shield Hero season three, episode nine. "Emperor Dragon." You won't want to miss it! (y)

 
Get ready to eat some peanuts and infiltrate the enemy ranks. Spy x Family season two is here!


Yor and the family venture out onto the deck of the luxury cruise ship as the fireworks show starts. The assassins target them from all angles, but thanks to the help of the director, Yor and him kill them all one by one and clean up the bodies as they die. It's a good ol' assassin versus assassin massacre. With only a few assassins left in Yor's way, she encounters a super strong sword-user who pushes her to her limits. After being knocked back and on the verge of dying, and without the director's help, Yor remembers why she started on her path, and pushes him back with force. Will Yor and company be able to protect the family before it's too late?

Yuri is on a mission with the person he's working with when he's attacked! ...By a cold. The suspect gets away, so Yuri's brother in arms gets him a particular brand of herbal tea that is similar to what Yor made for him as a child. Yuri recovers and is ready to go hunt down potential suspects again.

Next time on Spy x Family season two, episode nine. "The Hand That Connects to the Future." You won't want to miss it! (y)

 
Why do people have to try and ruin everything? Made in Abyss is amazing!
I could go for something a little more upbeat.

Other "problematic" titles on the angry twitter person's list include:

-HunterXhunter
-The Promised Neverland
-Girls Last Tour
-Kaiba
-Evangelion
-Attack on Titan
-Madoka Magica
-Killing Stalking
-Black Butler
-Violet Evergarden
-Banana Fish
-Darwin's Game
-Goblin Slayer
I do recall more than one other person here gushing about Violet Evergarden. It also seems like they randomly included some popular ones for whatever reason. I can also think of much worse.

I've been out of the anime loop recently to focus on other things, but I finally got around to watching the 5th season of Bungo Stray Dogs. I have three episodes left. 😢 I'm going to miss the zany character interactions. It has me wanting to do a rewatch or to get back into the manga (I think I left off just after the sky casino).

I love the duo of Bram and Aya! The music scene between the two of them was great. 😄
 
Get ready for some sorcery! Jujutsu Kaisen season two is here!


Itadori struggles against the use of average people to block his advance by Mahito. Meanwhile, Nobara fights Mahito's copy and inflicts damage in order to save Itadori from a devastating blow. This allows Itadori to deliver a beatdown on the main copy of Mahito. The Mahito copy decides to run towards the main copy, and Nobara gives chase. As the two come together, Itadori realizes what's happening and screams, but it's too late. The real Mahito touches Nobara's face and she's infected with his curse. We get some backstory on Nobara and how she grew up, with the end being that she broke her promise to see Fumi again. Nobara's last words to Itadori are to tell everyone, "Life isn't too bad." Then, the curse takes effect and Nobara Kugisaki dies.

Next time on Jujutsu Kaisen season two, episode twenty. "Right and Wrong Part Three." You won't want to miss it! (y)

 
Get ready to defend and slay! The Rising Of The Shield Hero season three is here!


Naofumi and company devise a plan to defeat the emperor dragon. Wyndia tells them about its weakness. Once the plan is set into action, it seems to be failing, but Atla delivers a strong attack to weaken the dragon and release Filo and the real Gaelion dragon. Sadeena then delivers her attack, and Raphtalia uses a powerful move in Instant Blade: Mist in order to finish off the emperor dragon for good. Wyndia thanks the Sword Hero, Ren, for having saved her life twice, and Gaelion regains the mind of Wyndia's dad, but asks Naofumi to remain silent about it. All's well that ends well... or is it? Don't forget, the Phoenix still has to be defeated!

Next time on The Rising Of The Shield Hero season three, episode ten. "Perfect Hidden Justice." You won't want to miss it! (y)

Loid finds out about potential bombs while on the ship with Anya, and begins disarming them. Meanwhile, Yor continues her fierce battle with the swordsman. Anya sends her weapon to her, which takes out a couple stragglers, and also helps her defeat the swordsman. The director stops the head assassin from attacking Yor during the battle. The head assassin then gets away and finds the intel man who was planning on blowing the entire ship up. The two struggle while fighting each other, but once Loid throws a bomb that was in a clock overboard, it knocks them both off the boat they were in and into shark-infested waters.

With all the bombs defused and most all of the assassins taken care of, Yor's work is done. Yor gets to hold the baby of the mafia member she was protecting for a bit. The director tells her to enjoy her vacation with her family as a reward, and that he will watch out for any stragglers on the ship. All's well that ends well, thanks to the elite trio of Loid, Yor, and... Anya!!

Next time on Spy x Family season two, episode ten. "Enjoy the Resort to the Fullest/Bragging About Vacation." You won't want to miss it! (y)

 
I was randomly scrolling the internet earlier and saw the spoiler that Nanami dies. :| Time to cross JJK off my list of stuff I care about watching.
That scene might even be playing in an ad I keep seeing pop up on youtube
 
I started one piece. I'm still in the very beginning but it's super good. I'm enjoying it so far.

Very nice! I got into it when Funimation started dubbing it on Cartoon Network. Then they stopped dubbing the parts 4kids left off on and dubbed the very start. You'll really enjoy the show! Always a good show and it doesn't matter if I take a break from it because it's easy to catch up as each island has its own story!
 
I'd like to watch Magi The Labyrinth of Magic. Can I do that legally in the U.S.?

I'm pretty sure Sony is just sitting on the rights to it over here, because they do that, and naked men.
