For everyone who watched Amanchu: Crunchyroll has just gotten a 13th episode of it up, probably an OVA episode of sorts. Haven't watched it yet.

Yeah, it's an OVA. Been making the rounds on the torrent sites for a while. It's pretty good! Teko's friends visit and also are literally just Akari and Aika from Aria.

Oh, that doesn't sound familiar so I guess I haven't watched it after all. Cool!

Juuni Taisen (12 Wars)
Graphinica | Hosoda, Naoto | Murai, Sadayuki | Action | Novel | Oct 3, 2017
The record of the bloody battle between the twelve proud warriors—
The 12th Twelve Tournament that gets held every twelve years…
Twelve brave warriors who bear the names of the signs of the zodiac fight each other for the lives and souls.
The participants are twelve very strange warriors: “Rat,” “Ox,” “Tiger,” “Rabbit,” “Dragon,” “Snake,” “Horse,” “Goat,” Monkey,” “Rooster,” “Dog,” and “Pig.”
The victor of this tournament gets to have one wish granted, whatever the wish may be.
The one wish they want granted—
Who will be the final survivor?
Whose tears will flow on the bloody battlefield filled with conspiracy and murder?
A soul-shaking battle royale is about to begin.

They even got the Gamers OVA and aired it immediately after the final episode for some reason.

Probably because you don't "air" OVAs? That's sort of the definition of an OVA...

I think that was an aired episode, just in the Amaburi pattern of having a chill episode where everyone's friends after the climax of their comedy's plot.

That said, they do occasionally grab OVA episodes when they're essential to the completion of their show's story. Nobody currently has Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko available for streaming as far as I can tell (the translation of the title makes for a difficult search), but that'd be a pretty good example. The main one that I'm thinking of was that they aired the final two episodes of ToLoveRu Darkness 2nd, which seem to have been the first two OVAs and completed several months after the rest of the show.

If I'm not mistaken, for some reason the OVA with the real ending to season 1 was never licensed in the US at all. Really incomprehensible situation if so.

Yea it sucks. Definitely pirate that the real ending owns.

I think part of the change is that the licensors are getting involved earlier and earlier in the process so they can request these things before they're even made. In the past they would have to negotiate with the home video companies for OVAs and very rarely could they get a good deal.

I don't remember if anyone is streaming, but it was released in some format as Ground Control to Psychoelectric Girl


e: Hulu had it, not now though as far as I can tell. Also because.moe seems not to work that well for me lately. Neither version showed up on their search.

I'd personally stay away from Gantz, unless you really like sex and gore, but to each their own.

the worst things i've heard about inuyashiki are it hates young people and the art gets very low effort e.g. the artist using 3d models as backgrounds or filtered photos for backgrounds/objects. otherwise it's supposed to be good?

An anime that hates young people sounds like a refreshing change of pace tbh

there was absolutely a shot in the first episode that looked extremely like a photo yeah. There's also a bit of odd CG, but generally its fine

And just reading the premise on wikipedia gave me a gently caress Teens vibe, and the episode really hammers that in

interested to see where cyborg grandpa goes tho cause already it seems more sincere and human than whatever the gently caress this plot summary of gantz is telling me
