Man I wish they ran servant x service into the ground instead of working

Working was fine but sxs was way better

That and devil is a part timer I wish had gotten more seasons, especially devil is a part timer with what happens after the anime finished

None of the loving anime aggregates for the seasons mentioned that motherfucking Thunderbolt Fantasy S2 was coming out in october and that Aoi Yuuki is using her shuten doji voice for one of the characters.

I know what I'm definitely watching now.

Thunderbolt Fantasy is also Urobuchi's best written series from start to finish. It's such Wuxia pastiche it's amazing and it just works with the puppets

counterpoint: everyone who gets mad about last airbender totally being an anime is really annoying, so im gonna say its not an anime, because its funny to see them get worked up

Aikatsu has been more Obari than any Robot show of the last 8 years

Also Akari needs to be in a mainline Super Robot Wars game not just Mobile

I know literally nothing about Aikatsu other than what I've gotten through twitter friends and follows livetweeting it, and yet I kind of want to adopt the anxious blue one.

:yeah:

Thunderbolt Fantasy s02 is going to be AotS and possibly AotY if it's at least as good as s01.

if you haven't seen the thunderbolt fantasy movie yet, do so. the first half is about why sha wu sheng/screaming phoenix killer hated lin so much (and it is absolutely brutal), the second was mostly a brief comical recap of the show. it ended on a very short preview for s2: thanks mostly to lin intentionally making shang as famous as he can manage, all the trouble shang left behind is coming to look for him. this is almost certainly what lin was after, because he's a huge dick.

At least they know which character to put front and center.

JP live-action still trash, though.

I genuinely hope Lin gets his comeuppance in s02 even though I'm not holding my breath for it to happen.

I kinda feel like School-Live is the sort of manga that would make the move to live-action better than most. It's not exactly 20th Century Boys.

I’ve said it before, but that new frame (a remodelled Barbatos?) looks suspiciously like the sort of Gundam that Julietta would fly. She used a sword and shield in her final battle against Mika, for one thing.

Half the fun of school live is them attempting to continue to have a normal existence despite everything. I wonder how much a movie would try to do before diving headfirst into the real nature of it. Based on that poster, seems like it'd be real quick.

Harukana Receive wound up being a really nice watch. Would definitely be up for another season, especially if it can get a bit nicer of a production.

Mobile Armors make a return. Like Father, Like Son, but he trains under Julietta. :getin:

I hope that's light enough on spoilers for anyone still thinking about watching IBO.

Odd to involve that many mechanical designers for a radio drama. My money's on pachinko.

I should also note that both suits are looking in the same direction. I can see that picture as representing an implied transition of the Barbatos from one shape (the iconic fourth form) to another.

Wasn't Julietta like an OC for the writer? Not too surprised if she becomes one of the main characters then.
