I mean, it'll be schlocky, because the source material is pretty schlocky (though the anime will almost definitely tone it down a bit), but I dunno. I'm not expecting a high point in the history of artistic expression, but it entertains me, and that's about the only estimation of value to me.

I'm only mildly excited for black general because some dummy got the bright idea of making portrait orientation shows to be streamed from a phone app.

It's completely insane to me, did they forget that you can just turn your phone sideways or something

Looking forward to Centaur's Worries and Fate/Apocrypha.

What I've seen of Fate/Apocrypha's Servant designs mostly looks like hot garbage, and I'll miss the UFOtable house style, but even if it's not as pretty as it might be, it at least looks set to be a fun ride with cool action.

i think jack and spartacus are the only two I'd say are garbage. Everyone else is decent to great.

And c'mon. How can you not love Shakespeare.

Alice & Zouroku is cute and good and fun. The latest episode made me feel all warm and fuzzy.

Shakespeare's pretty cool, but Karna and Siegfried are total overdesigned messes, and several of the others, like Achilles, Chiron, and the Monster, are just plain boring. The designer(s) didn't really have Takeuchi's touch for making simple but powerful and otherworldly-looking designs - compare Achilles to Iskander, for instance, or Karna to Cuchulainn.

The fact that the first chapter of the source material focused on Jack kinda turned me off of Apocrypha really early, but I'm a Fate fan, so I guess I gotta give everything a chance.

Jack isn't really that major a character honestly. The first few chapters just take a turn focusing on everyone. The ones I'd say are the most important are Siegfried, Shakespeare, and Semiramis.

tbh i could see fate/apocrypha winding up on some weird service, speaking of it. It's the kind of 'spinoff to a known franchise' thing that those newer services seem to like snapping up. Like the danmachi spinoff from this season.

But if an ant wore pants would it wear them over all six of its legs or just its rear legs and abdomen
