There are no bad Yuasa shows, only less good ones.

I commute by bike!
Even single Yuasa-directed episodes of otherwise completely different series are the best ones.

I'll admit I don't care for Mind Game like a lot of people around here do, but it's still a film I'm glad I watched.

I want to watch Beautiful Dreamer but I've only seen a few episodes of Urusei Yatsura, is it like a Lupin film where it's standalone as long as you know the characters?

yes. If you know the premise and maybe the main characters, you're good. watch it.

Looking back I saw Utena being discussed and its comedy owns, especially anything involving Nanami.

The episodes that focus on her are my favorite.

the best comedy in utena is the arrow gag

ikuhara's sense of humor owns, i wish he'd just make sort of normal shows instead of whatever penguindrum and yurikuma were supposed to be

Endorph

like utena has layers but it's totally possible to just watch utena as a show and enjoy it for what it is, without needing to go completely insane about feminism. girl duels to protect other girl, character development happens, other girl outgrows need for protection. it's simple.

penguindrum and especially yurikuma make no sense whatsoever on a surface level, and frankly they barely make sense even if you bend over backwards to try and make them make sense. it's hosed up.

In hindsight I feel like Enokido was probably a writer that kept him grounded.

I'd love to see them work together again, especially since Enokido's last few shows have been middling.

going back to psycho-pass: the intros are really boring but the 1st ED is fantastic

Alot of Supercell's stuff is listenable as hell.

The first the OP was great though, the singer's falsetto is really fun. PP1's 2nd OP song wasn't as good, but the visuals are slick as hell.

Tokyo Ghoul's OP was also by Ling Tosite Sigure, and it was the only consistently good part of that lovely show.

Ikuhara's basically tried to make a career doing student experimental art projects when you can only get away with that for so long.

If you want something that seriously makes no loving sense whatsoever, try the one manga he wrote himself.

That OP actually sounds really grating on the ears to me. I guess that means everything sucked about the horribly rushed anime series.

Unlike Tokyo Ghoul :re, which is kicking rear end in it's own right.

Huh, I just now realised why I've been so cool on Shimoneta

There are no jokes in this anime about dirty jokes being banned... I shouldn't feel so tricked since it's right in the name but man, they could have leaned into either plot or comedy and this is what they chose?

Sakurazuka

NANI?

Shimoneta started out as Seitokai Yakuindomo then suddenly morphed into Future Diary after a few episodes.

It feels like something I shouldn't really be watching yet I still am.

Ling Tosite Sigure is an awesome band and anyone who thinks thier music is boring has bad taste. I think the song for the 2nd OP is just as good but probably needs a full listen instead of just what is in the OP.

I will correct you on one point, Ling Tosite Sigure didn't do the OP for Tokyo Ghoul. The lead singer has a solo side project (called "TK from Ling Tosite Sigure") and that's who did the OP. His side project is also pretty good.
