I eagerly await a Cantaur's Worries anime adaptation (because of the batshit crazy world they live in). MonMusu wouldn't be bad either.

Centaur's Worries anime would be the poo poo. The fact that it explores social issues as well as it does it a plus too.

There was a Rail Wars promo poster where the girls were tied to each other like rail cars in bikinis.

Yes, they were literally comparing women with objects.

I honestly expected something worse on how you described it. That's just anime fanservice

Well Aldonoah zero knew how to start off an ep. A lot of exposition and info dumping but not too much to make it boring. Stuff happened and I'm eagerly awaiting the repercussions of it

I like on the map NK is completely gone. I wonder what they did to piss the Martians off to get wiped off the map literally.

And a lot of countries and places have landmass missing.

Bloody hell the first Martian incursion was no jokes was it?

Barakamon is hilarious fun. Finally a decent comedy show.

Aldnoah was pretty to watch. The touchdown was pretty sweet.

Barakamon is a seriously amazing feels good show. Recommend everyone to watch it

When Asseylum is talking to Edelrittuo (ugh, these names) in the elevator, she says that tracing the heritage of the Vers far enough back would lead to ancestors they share with Terrans. It's not very specific, but I feel like it implies the Vers have been around for longer than 42 years.

That's the impression I got too. That statement doesn't make it seem like they are some recent offspring of Earth unless they are all bloody messed up in terms of time due to the alien tech

Watched Nozaki.

You can see the budget for the show's pretty tight. And whoa, yeah they padded the hell out of some of those jokes, mostly by turning up the romance. It's not the almost non-stop funny barrage the manga often was... yet. But yeah, as others have said, just the two characters so far, not much to work with. I'm getting loving giddy with anticipation seeing all these Best Characters show up in the opening already.

Oh yeah, OP good. Some nice visuals, and the music doesn't make me want to kill myself, which instantly puts it ahead of 90% of all openings i've seen skipped.
Can't quite say the same about the ED.

I imagined Main Dude to have a slightly deeper voice, tho. But they perfectly nailed his hilarious perpetual gaze of bored contempt. And for all the talk of padding, bicycle gag was still pretty good. Also, cats.

God the amount of best characters next week is going to be insane. Can't wait for Sae

I'm so happy that Nozaki-kun's adaptation was good. The best character will be appearing in episode two so I'm pretty excited.

There's so many best characters appearing next week, pretty excited. Best girl and Sae are appearing and it's going to be amazing

Man the ED of that show is deliciously haunting. Premise is slightly dull but at least the animation is nice.

Need to see how it develops from here

Nozaki is Shounen actually. And having just watched the next episode I am confident it will be the funniest show of the season. Everyone should watch it

To be fair, with the way it's going there will probably be at least one heavily shoujo portion of a future episode.

Sabagebu has gotten even dumber and better in its second episode. The main character is also a total unapologetic rear end in a top hat and it's great.

The main character is a hilarious rear end in a top hat. I'm surprised by how much I laughed at it

I was making jokes about is this Hanamonogatori because of it. But yeah the best character was indeed the best

That's because there's more reason for a genre-specific thread to exist than a studio thread. People would wander into a seinen thread and ask for some recommendations or discuss a new chapter of something that doesn't have enough interest to warrant it's own full thread. If someone went into a Trigger thread for similar reasons, what would they say? "Which of these two shows should I watch, or would I be better off reading the OP of the show's respective threads and make a decision myself?".

I guess you could talk about a studio's quirks :shrug: but I doubt you could reach 20 pages of meaningful discussion specifically centered on SHAFT head-tilts and crazy backgrounds.

Yeah the amount of stuff I got out of the genre threads is pretty amazing. Especially the surreal slice of life one where I picked up so many manga I wouldn't have.

Not a big surprise really. No heir to properly lead the studio and with the recent production not making that much profit.

Can't rely on one person to keep a company going this long

I'm surprised at how little that upsets me. I guess mostly because I haven't truly loved a new Ghibli film in a long, long time. However if this were to derail any Blu-ray releases that would certainly suck, though by the sounds of it it's not like they would be closing all of their doors.

Same here. Like yeah I do love the brand for giving me the past enjoyments but if it can't continue to give what made it good then it's time for it to fade out

On a unrelated new Prison School is going to get an anime. Probably OVA but who knows.

I guess having your great blues manga cancelled turned alright for him in the end

Tokyo Ghoul suffers from basically skipping a lot of the content. I suggest you check out the manga despite it's lackluster translations.

It's a good show still but basically carried by the voice acting for me really.

And jesus christ RasputinVarez

Source material is fantastic. I was wary about the how they changed how the protagonist to look but from the trailer it seems my worry is unfounded
