Paracelsus posted:In Kokkuri-san, it looks like Kohina has a vase of flowers on her school desk (at around 6:19). That's never a good sign. I should make a thread for Gugure! Kokkuri-san it's extremely cute  Kohina can't be a ghost because it'd make no sense for spirits to haunt other ghosts. I think it's just a kind gesture by fan. Dropping Wolf Girl it's just *that* bad. Not even famous VAs can save it

Schneider Heim posted:Does anyone know what cars they used for Shirobako? Aoi's car looks like a Suzuki Alto, but I'm not a kei car expert. The other one looks like some kind of Nissan, but I don't know what their current kei and subcompact models are besides the Micra, which doesn't look like that (I don't think.)

Sora no Method is Ano Hana by way of Denpa Onna and Nagi no Asukara. And so I can't dislike this show because I liked most of those shows.

Did the phrase even come up in anime before Chuu2? Isn't it a relatively new term/archetype?

Steins;Gate had a giant chuuni as its protagonist two years before the KyoAni show aired. Rage of Bahamut E2: Still great, Favaro continues to be a hilarious sleazeball, dozens of gif-worthy moments, and the OP takes the show from 'very metal' to 'ludicrously metal'. We need a thread for this, stat.

I have a hard time thinking of a concise, culturally relevant translation for chuunibyou. Every attempt I've seen has turned out awkward or extremely wordy. I'm completely fine with leaving it untranslated.

If you have to invent a new phrase for the English language you aren't translating anymore. It's much more justifiable to leave chuunibyou untranslated than something like "otaku" or "hikikomori", which have close English equivalents. That said it's pretty much a made up anime thing like tsundere anyway, not something worth knowing like schadenfreude or zeitgeist.

I particularly enjoy all these fictional modern middle schoolers who are obsessed with LARPING anime that was cool in the early 90s. I mean seriously, it's 90% directly LARPing Yu Yu Hakusho, which we all know is the trendy popular thing these days and not at all a reflection on the mid-30s authors churning out these LNs.

Bahamut has no right to be as good as it is, but it's just so good. Pretty much any scene directly related to Favaro has been pure gold, and even Amira has her fun moments.

Episode 2 roundup: I Can't Understand...: Yeah, I think I'll be keeping up on this show for the whole season. It's goofy and charming to keep my interest. How long is it supposed to be running again? Denki-gai: Jesus Christ. The first one was a relatively generic, slightly dirty slice of life comedy, but I've never really watched a slice of life show so it was something new to me. Watchable at least. But this second episode is just so creepy. Don't watch it, just pretend it doesn't exist. Dropped like a ton of bricks. Maybe I'll watch Chaika S1, the talk about S2 makes it sound pretty fun.
