For what a blatant unapologetic reference shitfest Gamers is, I'm surprisingly getting into it, especially with the latter half of the second episode.

also the op references pubg

gamers is like a friedberg and seltzer anime, none of the references have anything to them besides showing up. theres barely any jokes and it takes all its plot elements directly from better series, terrible.

but hey if you love pointing at things and going 'wow i recognize this, im having fun now' you will love this

I disagree, it's funny and good and the references are there to ground the show, not as jokes themselves. If you didn't laugh when he was poo poo at a fighting game, you have no soul.

Saiyuki continues to be dumb, but fun and sad. The second episode was dumb filler and a waste, but the this week's ep was decent since it's from the manga.

They also carried over the comedy short bits at the end of each ep like they did in the second and third series heh.

Glad to hear it. It's my SO's favorite manga ever so I'm watching it with them and the second episode really did feel like a wash. I guess if the first ep was to kind of introduce the world, the second was to introduce the characters? Kind of unnecessary since they seem to be adapting the third part of a long running series.

Either way those shorts at the end are worth the price of admission.

Because evil Minus Wave makes demon elves super violent and the whole point of Saiyuki is Sanzo and harem of handsome dudes go west to stop evil mistress trying to revive a demon king because her experiments is loving up said demons and they're also trying to steal the super buddha paper that Sanzo has around his shoulders.

in the mean while we enjoy the man angst and Gojyo reminding the audience that he is in fact totally heterosexual. Good times.

Yeah, pretty much, but at this point in Saiyuki, most humans are basically NOPE at any demons, even the sane ones because it's more than possible that they'll go crazy sooner or later and there are demons who are more than willing to gently caress poo poo up, evil wave or not. Throughout the series, the story addresses and revolve around the demons who aren't affected by evil atmosphere wave and what the implications of the future are gonna be like for them since their relationship with humans is irrevocably damaged because of the past and current events.

At the same time, Sanzo and friends have capped many a demon since they technically came for them first so rip demons :ghost: Also, in-universe people who actually know them are like, "this is a lovely priest and his followers are also super questionable"

Restaurant to Another World is extremely pleasant and I super enjoy it. It's basically a very relaxing series of vignettes about a bunch of D&D PCs' favorite foods and it's great.

I alone can see through the media bias.

I'm also stupid on a scale that can only be measured in Reddits.
Smartphone kid made a way better choice than the dude who chose the annoying rear end goddess as his gm item.

Its not the crux of the show like I thought it would be though. I expected him to be prevailing via clever use of his smartphone but nah. God was impressed by his modesty and just threw in both physical and magical superpowers which the kid uses to get poo poo done. Fair enough, but goddamn. The superhuman magery perk seems like it would have been worth the wish on its own. Kid is mad op.

yeah, it's so nutty but is pretty entertaining. Since it didn't do a 3-ep arc like I was anticipating I'm wondering what else is going to turn up like I'm assuming the two-headed shadow that keeps turning up is the deformed baby; plus everyone being high on drugs kinda explains a lot of the "demonic" presence it has

also lmao at "who could have imagined a priest being a molester!!?" and that also *not* being the biggest reveal of the episode :psyduck:

hina logi has the best next-ep previews since sasami-san@ganbaranai. the teachers go out to the bar for drinks and gush about finding dates while scenes from the next ep play in the reflection of a pint of beer or on the wall-mounted tv or in the vice-principal's glasses

So far I'd say yes. The first episode was a little slow but that is pretty normal for Fate and it was a lot better than the first episode of Zero, there are a lot of fun characters and the action and animation in fights has been really good so far.
