Decided not to watch Shin Sekai Yori because it sounds way heavier than what I really feel up for at the moment. That said, I've been wanting a bit more action than I'm getting from all the SOL stuff I've been watch for the past few months - do you fine goons think FMA:B would be a good fit? Been meaning to get around to it for literal years.

Fullmetal Alchemist is a really good adaptation of a really good manga.

It's got action, a bunch of character development, a wide array of genuinely interesting and varied characters, and a nice cohesive plot that all comes together.

Though the earlier episodes may be confusing if you haven't read the manga, because Brotherhood assumes that you've already read the manga or watched the first adaptation. So the first few volumes are sorta rushed or have the order changed around (not the events themselves, but flashbacks are shown earlier if I recall) and one short arc is pretty much cut out entirely.

But it's so so so so so so so so good.

I like going back and watching bits and pieces of my favorite moments.

Usually the final battle but also some earlier scenes.

I don't think I'd rewatch the earlier episodes though.

I picked Rabi-Ribi up after letting it sit on my backlog a while, completed the prologue. This seems nice. A little cheap and definitely fanservicey, but the combat and bullet-hell elements feel surprisingly good for a low-budget metroidvania clone, and I kind of dig how unabashedly goofy and low-stakes it is early on.

If they're all kenomonomimi girls with a lack of pants because 100% of the dev team loves cute girls in their favorite anime, and only some of the fans like it and the rest are like "well it plays good but it's so ANIME ugh," the term seems pointless. At best you could say it's zero-sum, but in reality less people play it than the quality deserves and I dunno, the term seems stretched at that point.

I'm re-reading a manga to get to the new volume I just got, and I'm torn between wanting to get through the next volume tonight so I can start the new one and saving it for another night to make it last longer because I love reading it and don't want to be finished.

Also knowing it'll probably be a year+ before I get to read the next volume is depressing.
