Is this episode of Anime Crimes Division supposed to have German subtitles? Because it's totally adding to the experience.

Is Today's Menu for the Emiya Family any good? Been a while since I saw any Fate stuff, and I would expect it to be mostly crap at this point. It's been like, a decade and a half.

It's weird how the tone of Nasuverse stuff has changed over time. Remember when it was about vampires and insane wizards raping and murdering people while spouting long-winded philosophy?

I mean, the Fate/Extra anime was basically that. Well, with the murder. Think Nasu’s been trying to quietly sidle away from the rape.

fate/stay night had your teacher comically berating you for every time you died gruesomely in ways you should have predicted would happen and fate/hollow ataraxia has shirou using his magic reinforcement powers to fix a soccer ball that saber accidentally destroyed by kicking it too hard and getting worried about medusa stealing his bicycle

I didn't mean to suggest that it shifted all at once. Even Fate/Stay Night tones down the edgy self-seriousness from Tsukihime.

planet with has been criminally underexposed this season, but I just got recommended this video by a prominent anituber and he does a real good job selling it. I hope it gets more people to give it a shot who otherwise wouldn't. Maybe the line "a dog voiced by norio wakamoto" will sell it to people by itself. :v:

It's a good show, but I feel like some production jank and some crazy fast pacing keep me from liking it as much as the writing makes me want to. I love a lot of what the writing's doing but everything happens so fast, and most of the visuals are so workmanlike, that I find myself not really being able to appreciate anything on an emotional level. Had a similar experience when I watched Magus Bride.

yeah. but, whatever? it's not a race, and if nox feels that 12 eps is too brisk for the story, well, the manga takes its time, so it seems like you just gave him a selling point there

also wrt Fate, Nasu's evolution as a writer is pretty understandable in the context of him writing Kara no Kyoukai in high school/college and him writing Tsukihime when he was in his early 20s. He was still basically a kid when he wrote that stuff, it'd be weird if his tone and style didn't evolve dramatically. And I still love Tsukihime and its universe, but the evolution of Nasu into someone who just puts the insane jokes into the main story instead of the side content, and someone who is willing to go all in on weird ideas like F/E CCC is wonderful to me. CCC has some issues, but it's also wildly inventive and incredibly funny, and even has a pretty coherent point to make, I really wish it was translated into English. At least the CCC event in FGO will be in english within the year.
