The Anime Thread

Oops, shouldn’t have said “like” ACNL, just a lot of random things brings it to mind but it is Japanese after all. Very short episodes so it’s an easy one. I haven’t finished it yet but it is kind of interesting so far.
 
I've always disliked Youjo Senki's title being "Tanya the EVIL". I get that the title comes from the fact that she is at war with literally God himself, but it usually gives people the wrong idea. Afar from a couple sinister facial expressions in the anime, she is far from evil . It always makes me mad when I hear people whom havent watched the show, often call her a Nazi or Hitler.

Youjo Senki is my favorite anime/LN so please forgive my ranting :p
 
I watched the first episode of Fairy Gone today. It seems like it might be pretty interesting.
 
Finished watching Kakegurui season 1. It was...okay. Didn't really blow me away. Honestly not sure if I want to make an effort to start Kakegurui XX yet. I know I will at some point, but I may just watch other stuff for now and then come back to XX later.

Rating: 6/10.

I feel like this is somewhat aimed at me considering what I said in the "You're Banned" thread. (judging from the way you worded it, I know it's not just at me in particular, but I feel like I might've given you the motivation to post this) I've never watched the show so I just assumed that she was evil judging from the few screenshots I've seen as well as her being called...well, "Tanya the Evil". It's easy to get the wrong idea if you haven't watched the anime yourself or read the LN yourself, so I feel like the writers should've taken this into consideration. That being said, thanks for making an effort to try and educate people (myself included) on the subject.

Actually no, this is something that has bothered me since the first time I've watched it. Just thought Id rant about it since it's on my mind currently (account theme)

i just finished your lie in april AND IT WAS SO GOOD and now im sad

I hated that anime lol but It's cool to see you liked it. The way the characters talked and acted made me either laugh or throw up.

yeah i get what u mean. what confused me was how kousei looked like a 5 year old when they showed him being around 12 or 13.
 
I'm still excited for this Fruits Basket remake! I watched the original anime way back when I was in middle school and finished reading the manga years ago. Now, my partner and I are watching the remake together and it's a wonderful nostalgic feeling. I hope they do it the justice it deserves! We're also watching Dororo, Kimetsu no Yaiba, and Kono Oto Tomare!

I also seriously need to catch up on Jojo Part 5, I think I'm on Episode 21 right now but I was always bad at keeping up and keeping track of currently-airing anime;; I always watched after the anime finished airing but now I'm trying to catch up every week when I can!

Omg the fact that you enjoyed the show and also agree with me is amazing. So many people try to always push the flaws aside and argue they're not there. Oh and btw I'm sorry for my distasteful post from before, I just really dislike the show xD

DIU was preeeetty interesting last night. Can't wait to see Cheap Trick (Cheap Trap in localization) next weekend, I get to see Rohan Kishibe do a weird dance just to get the dang thing off his back...literally lol
 
Dororo ep 15 was hugely disappointing. The animation quality took a nosedive off a cliff and the pacing was weird. I really hope this isn't an indicator of things going forward. It was an entire world away from it's usual high standard. :(

I am looking forward to seeing where this 'Dororo kidnapped' arc is going though. Hyakki has been taking her for granted lately, so hopefully he will start to appreciate her more after this. I just hope the quality goes back to it's usual standard.
 
Tonight I started watching season 2 of One Punch Man with my husband. It's kind of more his thing than mine, but at least it's a fun watch and something we can do together.
 
That reminds me of the thing I wanted to ask about One Punch. Is all the bad stuff that got predicted true? Might aswell still watch it because I got nothing else atm

looks fine to me

hopefully its just the studio picking one episode to dump all the ****ty animation into and that its not a sign of things to come for the rest of the series
