I think it is funny how from then point on in nagatoro they are obviously dating and their friends describe them as girlfriend and boyfriend but also they won't admit it even though they have set up some alternate narrative stakes so they don't really need to drag it out.

yeah, coming into this season of nagatoro i wanted less creepy sadomasochistic "comedy" bits and more character development (particularly, for naoto to take control of some of his own growth) and it did a pretty good job on delivering that, particularly as the season went on.

uzaki can be funnier, though. the fuckin surreal choco-mint bit is incredible.

She's right about mint.

I’ve been watching Revenger, Tomo-Chan, and Blue Lock. I’ll catch back up on To Your Eternity but drat that orb has been grim and depressing lately.

And I like the Nier anime. And still watching Kaina, but it's not very good, really. Dropped Tensei Oujou, because it wasn't really keeping my interest.

More than a Married Couple is quite trippy and I can only assume it takes place in some kind of messed up Low Birthrate apocalypse society.

Handyman Saitou really swerved with its setup for the second half and it was way more inventive than I assumed. Keeps delivering great stuff layered with just dumb-as-hell comedy.

Tomo-chan has been a joy every week. Going to miss it bigly.

Wearer of Compasses. Slayer of Gods. Champion of the Colosseum. Heart of the Void.
Saviour of Hallownest.
Tomo is good.

Angel next door is surprisingly good.

Chillin in my 30s is indeed pretty chill.

Fire Hunter I dropped. The animation is just so rough and despite the interesting premise it just feels really slow.

Nier I'm enjoying a lot.

Trigun is also fun despite not knowing the original.

magirevo hasn't really replicated the magic of that first episode but it's solid

That's about how I feel about Magirevo, yeah.

What's up with Sugar Apple Fairy Tale? I avoided it based on assuming fairy slavery was just going to be gross but it's got some nuance to it I'd be curious to check it out.

magirevo kinda has the shokei shoujo thing where you can immediately tell the staff wanted to put effort in but it feels like after the first episode they just immediately stopped being able to do that. maybe it'd be better if the pipeline for these adaptations wasn't so machine-like

its just a solid shoujo fantasy series that looks really nice, good art direction and char designs.

idk about nuance but the first arc is mostly about how the protagonist is stupid and naive and doesnt understand systematic oppression, its not some shield hero thing, the show clearly thinks she sucks lol. i dont think its gross but i didnt think ancient magus bride was gross either so ymmv

Vinland Saga (still very well written) and Trigun Stampede (greatly improving on Maximum IMO) for me. Will probably check out the judo show later.

I wouldn't say production has been an issue as it's looked solid for all episodes and has looked good when it's needed too. It's more a case of pacing as it's trying to get 3 volumes into 12 episodes and it's cutting out some introspection and finer details to get there. I think it's a minor issue and still think it's a really good adaptation but I've been reading the LN and manga to fill in those spaces and can see why someone reading those may not fully click with the anime

It's been a good season. Fire Hunter, Revenger, Pokemon, Vinland and UY have been what I most look forward to, but Bungo and MHA have also been poppin off, and Mononoke hitting netflix w a dub was a good excuse to check that out. Will prolly binge Nier when its done. Also I fell off Bocchi on its third ep, so there's that to blow thru sometime, maybe.

Spring season will have Mix season 2, which will be one of if not the best anime of the year. That's likely all I'll be watching and heck it's all I'll need.
