Space Flower posted:to be fair, if he just meant the politics in the manga are heavy handed and it only gets thicker later on, that'd be understandable. but I'd still disagree because the politics is part of the detailed world building that makes the series interesting and relevant. I like that the chapter title literally contains a horseshoe.

Summer Season 2017: I got 99 worries and a centaur's each one There wasn't really anything I wanted to watch this season, which turned out okay for me because I was planning on using this season to rewatch and catch up on some things and I've been real busy anyway. The only thing I kept up with was Shuumatsu. I tried to keep up with Alice to Zouroku and Sakura Quest. Are either of those two worth picking back up?

Command Ant posted:Summer Season 2017: I got 99 worries and a centaur's each one Alice and Zouroku is fun. One of the main characters is the grumpiest old man with a heart of gold you'll find (voiced by Solid Snake, even!). Sakura Quest is a P.A. Works original show about cute girls working (usually) boring jobs. If you liked previous P.A. Works shows about Cute Girls working (usually) boring jobs, then this will most likely appeal to you.

Command Ant posted:Summer Season 2017: I got 99 worries and a centaur's each one Alice and Zouroku is really cute and good once it finishes the first arc, since it basically closes off the the secret organization in 4 episodes, and then essentially becomes a full-on SoL of a psychic powered girl. Sakura Quest is still a slow burn, but it's not bad, I like it.

I hope CW gets to the chapters where the protagonist gets transported to a fantasy world where she's super strong compared to everyone else and murders a ton of people.

The only thing I watched this season was LWA, which is odd because I dropped it last season. It got a lot better to me when it stopped the episodic... uh, episodes and switched over to its main arc. I didn't get more than an episode in to anything else (though I will check out MHA from the beginning, once I've finished TTGL). Maybe I'll try the PA Works thing.

Any letdowns there? I was gonna pick up Hinako Note but I heard it was boring, and not in the good NNB way.

Did IBO stick the landing? I saw 12 eps and then waited until it was all over.

I thought both were good, but Tanya is definitely the better of the two, and you should probably skip MonMusu if you're the type that gets angry about fanservicey harem anime. StrixNebulosa posted:Did IBO stick the landing? I saw 12 eps and then waited until it was all over. Also curious about this. I dropped it a couple of episodes into season two when it sort of started to get dull and predictable.

i think he's talking about demi-chan, not monster musume which i'd say is decent but i didn't enjoy it as much as the manga and kind of fell off part of the way through

Oh never mind then, Demi-chan kicks rear end with no disclaimer.

IBO definitely stuck the landing IMO, the only real problem with the second season is that it mostly dropped a pretty major plot thread from the first (Kudelia's) and some people didn't like the way the "main" villain subverted their expectations. Me personally, I loved it.

It had a good 15 episodes of short arcs that didn't go anywhere, it abandoned everything that was cool about McGillis in favor of making him yet another gundam pilot, it sidelined or got rid of interesting characters, and then it ended with a ten year timeskip where they explained to us in three minutes how the main villain of the season solved all the problems of the whole show. It sucked.

I enjoyed IBO S2 well enough (way more than any other Gundam TV series other than Turn A) but it was basically just "fine" by the end.

I feel very similarly about IBO S1 and S2. I started with high hopes for both and was let down both times.

It sucked. I think that final timeskip was supposed to be jarring - there's a lot of very deliberate parallels with the history of Imprial Japan throughout the show that only grow stronger in the second season, and that whiplash of the enemy ending the war in the most horrific possible way and then turning out to be... well... not fantastic, but significantly less awful than expected is really key to what the show's trying to get across. It's a pretty bold attempt to bring that strange, confusing bundle of national guilt, pride, and trauma to a modern audience, and even if you question whether it sticks it, or whether that was a good idea in the first place, you do kind of have to respect the stones of a show that goes for that.

I'mma be super loving mad if this week's ending to YowaPedal was a fake out. Like holy poo poo. Also Eromanga deployed the nuclear option last episode. That is probably the best show of the season but also gosh it would have been great if the people making it had made anything else instead.
