afaik it doesn't portray pedophilia so that seems an odd flag to stick in it specifically

eromanga-sensei has some of the best character animation of the season and probably the last few years, and is a huge showcase for young, upcoming animators that are capable of doing more than just action. unfortunately, it's also eromanga-sensei.

I haven't watched the show but most discussion of eromanga sensei seems to be "Man this is actually pretty well done, now if only it was literally any other show it'd be great." That's gotta be a weird situation for a show to be in.

Everything I've heard about the show can be summed up as "Oh hey this is a lavishly animated and actually pretty funny and charismatic show/cast, shame it's centered around a 12 year old who wants to gently caress her Onii-chan."

but it doesn't depict pedophilia! just ephebophilia, which is totally different you know and it is actually the best show of the season.

Talking about Tolkein having weird political views, and somehow no one brings up that like half of Return of the King was a dumb plot line that only existed so he could rant about industrialization being bad? I mean they even had to awkwardly skip it in the movie.

industrialization being bad sounds a hell of a lot more interesting than whatever the rest of LotR was about. All that sweaty, fiery bro bonding between the bearded bear and the skinny blonde effeminate twink and they didn't even gently caress.

I haven't had time to watch a single show this season :cry:

The only anime I've watched was Blame on netflix, which was surprisingly good.

There looks to be a new anime streaming service in the US and it looks like the site is down due to capacity. They have Legend of the Galactic Heroes exclusively there and are charging $3.99/month and are releasing it episodically with 4 episodes a week.

Wonder whether this is Sentai's attempt of a standalone streaming service. Seeing Sentai's previous work, the subs are probably not good.

1. There is an ad supported free membership with certain restrictions

2. The site is not owned by Sentai, they're just in an agreement to stream Sentai shows.

Huh. I don't know if I want to pay an amount comparable to a Crunchyroll sub for a single series, but it probably is worth it.

Those first two episodes of the dub on Funimation's site are available for free (with ads), so you can just check it out first-hand if you want. Having only seen those two episodes dubbed myself, I'd say I probably preferred the sub overall, but the dub was by no means bad. That said, it wasn't as if the dub voices had much time to grow on me.

I haven't checked out the episodes proper, but the PVs for the dub sounded like garbage in all honesty.
