Persecuting Nazis is good, and I eagerly await the day they realize that they don't have to be Nazis.

Just caught the second episode of Maid Dragon and I enjoyed it more than the first. It's a a rather relaxing show. It kinda feels kinda like Non Non Biyori, strangely.

And now I've got to figure out which Maid Dragon thread to post in...

Speaking of anime Nazis (and of blowing them up with giant beam cannons), someone high up at MAL seems to think they're being unfairly persecuted.

Yes. No.
Ep 2 they manage to properly work together to defeat a monster, ep3 is a flashback to how the team started.

I really liked the second episode of Scum's wish. I didn't think much of it at first but the ending for the second episode caught me off guard and I want to see where all of this goes.

You cheated not only the game, but yourself.
But most of all, you cheated BABA

I'm watching two shows this season, Maid Dragon and Scum's Wish, and they're both really good in different ways. I'm really, really pleased. :allears:

(I've put the rest of my shortlist - ACCA, Chaos;Child - on the backburner for when they're done and I've seen other impressions.)

The first two episodes of Granblue Fantasy were pretty decent in a 90's RPG sort of way, I look forward to the rest of the series in April.

the recent episode of rakugo shinjuu had me on the edge of my seat: yotaro's finally found his rakugo. it's unconditional love, for yakumo, for konatsu, for all those around him. where yakumo and sukeroku had deep wellsprings of fear and anxiety and nihilism, yotaro wants only the best for those around him, and is willing to bet everything on their happiness

The granblue anime looks weird. The rough lines sometimes look cool but also sometimes make things blurry and indistinct, as if I was watching a lower resolution. Trying to imitate the game's style? I dunno, it's hit or miss.

Eh, I haven't really clicked with the characters just yet. But Yuniko Ayana is a Good Writer, so I'll absolutely give it a bit more time.

I can't adequately describe why, but I'm enjoying Seiren after the first three episodes. Something about it just feels, I don't know, "honest".

i think pretending masamune-kun is legitimately indulging toxic masculinity/sexism is a good way to get people to not watch it.

well, i've seen the joke elsewhere (even in this thread) and don't find it particularly funny or based in anything within the actual show. just the same super surface reading that had people turn on the show for being sexist when the first episode aired. masamune is obviously conflicted by/a victim of societal expectations of masculinity, and is also insecure about that. aki coming off as hugely unlikable doesn't read to me as the show saying "look, women are bitches" because it's an obvious setup to some degree of redemption and there are other sympathetic female characters in the cast anyway.

Ah I see, well for me I make the joke because the way Masamune "strategizes" about getting Aki to fall for him in his inner narration essentially comes across as what I've heard about PUA; the show generally doesn't seem to at all embrace the philosophy but the first 2 eps had some cringey moments.

I actually also have a hard time seeing Aki as unlikeable; on reddit people are using the b-word and I'm just baffled.
