didn't know anything about that blood blockade show that's airing next season, so I read the one shot of what it's based on


It's a take on Hellboy written by the trigun guy, and its being directed by the kyousigiga lady


This is what it feels like, to be hyped by anime

Besides it being about an agency protecting and investigating stuff in a supernatural world the only thing that's mega hellboy is the main character a giant redhaired demon guy that punches stuff real hard, and is gruff but likeable and mostly friendly

It'd be fine if you were just like "It's a cute show, whatevs." No one asked you to go into your life's story or talk poo poo about yourself for liking it. Have some loving self-respect and awareness.

It's cool World Break is getting a dub. I read a dissapointing review of it and decided it probably wasn't worth the effort of watching the subs, so I'll give the English version a try.

we're not as bad as those nerds, because we're appropriately ashamed about liking a thing

btw if anybody hasn't seen Blue Blazes, I'd recommend giving it a shot. It's a J-Drama, but it's an adaptation of a sort of-autobiographical manga by the guy behind Blazing Transfer Student and who did the character design for G Gundam. It's about the author being a dumb dork in college and is also pretty relatable for anybody that's felt like they had no idea what the gently caress they wanted to do with their life or that they weren't really getting anywhere.

The author also went to the same school as Anno so about half of it is about him and other future Gainax staff being dorks in the runup to Daicon 3.

My new fav part about Eyeshield 21 is the two people on the Poseidan team who are drawn as freakishly lanky giants and then its revealed they're just 6'0 tall, I forgot Japan is the homeland of the manlets lmao.

We can't even say that anymore. I know a nerd through the magic of con scenes who was just arrested for planning a straight up no lie mass killing. The internet if anything made it worse because now nerds can stew, work together, and find other malcontents!

Anyway, in lighter news I have photos, what do you all want to see uploaded from the convention.

Soranowoto had alot of potential, and the central conceit of an all-female squad of soldiers on some backwater assignment wasn't bad. The slow apocalypse setting was also a strength.

But did they really have to make 3/5 of the main soldier characters middle schoolers? They can barely take care of themselves, no one could trust them with their lives.

Did they lie about their ages so they could stick it to johnny foreigner, or does that world just routinely allow 14 year olds to join the military?
