I can't believe the best show of the season is about a NEET playing an MMORPG

Every time I watch one of these shows what strikes me most is how awful the games look. Asian MMOs must be a grindy hell to play.

edit: it also really annoys me how they never seem to get a good dynamic for guilds that matches what I've seen in WoW.

I find it interesting that the latest episode features loot crate type mechanics and premium currency. MMO animes of old rarely touched on that stuff, I think the closest they ever got was concerns about Real Money Trading. Just shows how MMO monetization has changed I suppose.

I don't know, it lines up pretty well with what the guilds I've been in: a bunch of people you chat with, show your glamour off to, and occasionally do group content with.

Aah, gotcha. I got up to episode 3 last night, gonna watch the last two today, so not quite there yet. I thought they'd actually changed her body type some for the anime or something but couldn't find any examples from a quick google so I got curious.

And yet another reason why Mahoujin Guru-Guru is one of the best of the year: It's the first time I've heard Kana Asumi's voice since her minor roles in Haifuri and Nisekoi (I don't find myself watching idol shows and never got drawn into Fox Spirit Matchmakers or whatever that show is called).

Food Wars has been really good this season. If you maybe fell off the second season for being a pretty banal tourney, this season actually has plot!

that's a strong reason. i haven't seen past ep 1 yet but might i suggest checking out Enmusubi no Youko-chan? she plays the main girl, an airheaded squeaky fox girl, which is as kana asumin a role as they come.

e: oh i guess i missed that last part of your post. well ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

how can you fall off season two it's a TOURNAMENT ARC although the rise of Food Hitler is pretty great.

This plot may actually become grating and long-winded after a while though. What? Why would I know? I read the manga and it's made me drop it.

Has anyone been keeping up with Children of the Whales? I watched the first three episodes but it just wasn't gripping, and I'm considering dropping it - were the last two episodes any good?

I've been waiting for someone to post exactly what kind of show the whale children thing is and I still have no idea, it was one I was waiting to see reactions on before checking out and the fact that there are no reactions is kinda telling.

The main characters live on an isolated island in a peaceful commune until a bunch of people who suppress their emotions show up and murder most of the island's population, and then they're presumably forced to set out and survive while being hunted by the evil empire.

At least that's the premise based on the last episode I saw (the third one).
