I don't remember the CCS anime being this gay, but it's been a while.

It always was but like all CLAMP stuff it's either super subtext or never comes to anything

Did Stray Dogs develop an overarching plot, and did it stay good? I liked the first three episodes but dropped it because it wasn't really going anywhere and I had other stuff I was watching.

e; unrelated but I'm so glad Flying Witch is all recurring characters instead of a series of disconnected vignettes. :3:

Kabaneri is the best looking non-KyoAni show I've seen in a long time. Apart from all the still shots there are so the action bits look great.

Clamp shows/comics have always had a FUCKTON of gay on them. Magic Knight Rayearth was my first CLAMP experience and I still find it loving hilarious that TV stations were so hilariously wishy-washy when it came to gender roles and sexual preferences. Like, Sailor Moon changed a bunch of the first names (Usagi = Serena; Makoto = Lita and Mamoru = Darien), but left intact EVERYTHING ELSE, including at least three gay couples. On the other hand, MKR actually re-wrote a whole love triangle by changing a guy to a girl, just because “Man on man is ew! Girl on girl is Yum!”

How gays are portrayed in fiction and the reaction of the masses is one of my favorite topics.

It's following the source material pretty closely which does have an overarching plot, but the manga doesn't get in a big hurry to actually reveal what the antagonists' goals so I can see how it would feel like it meanders.

I started to watch it at one point but had a hard time getting into it because it felt like I should already know who all the characters are (reasonable, since that's the second book in the series) so I put it aside for a while. I had originally planned to just read the Summer of the Ubume novel and never got around to buying it, and in the meantime the manga started getting translated so I ended up just reading that instead. I want to give watching MnH another shot now that I know who everyone is, I was just holding off until Ubume finished.

Alright. It's still pretty and funny so I'll probably add it to the list.

also since the MnH manga translations are abysmally slow it'll probably be better to just watch it and then skip to the manga of the 3rd story since the Ubume group is going to put it out. I dunno if there's a huge difference between the novel, manga, and anime but as long as the overall story is the same I don't care that much.

i've heard the subs for Moryou no Hako aren't super great as far as properly conveying information goes, though i've still kept it in case i feel like pushing past the first couple episodes. the detective is hot

I think knowing who all the characters are going into it will make understanding things a lot easier. Also when I tried to watch it before I was using a really low-quality stream and could barely SEE the subs much less read them so that probably wasn't helping haha

The people who get crazy about that stuff are completely insane.

There are definitely bad rips out there but when you get to the point where it's super hard to tell the difference at 1080p...

there was a bunch of whining about 720 instead of 1080 too but that may have been on a different page

Wait, is she wearing two skirts? Or is the green skirt a one-piece coat-kind-of-thing part of her shirt? It's cool, but sorta confusing.

It's probably just that the skirt has two layers. Some clothes do!

BakaBT can be poo poo about stuff like that because they will take an utterly unnoticeable to normal people increase in picture quality over better subs
