That's lain.

Makes sense. As Lain is maybe god at the end of the anime, Tanya would logically hate her so much.

Imagine how much more sad and lonely we would be if not for the hard work of lowtax. Here's $12.95 to his aid.
Jingai-san no Yome is hard to describe in text, other than you should watch it if you only watch one short anime this fall, and if you refuse short anime entirely, you should ignore that personal decision just for this peculiar fluffy mystery. I'm just that baffled.

It's bad but that goes without saying it was written by Garth Ennis and people who think Garth Ennis is good, still not as bad as Goblin Slayer.

Speaking of Lain, has anyone watched RErideD? I forgot all about it.

I haven't seen the subsequent episodes, but the first episode was a snoozefest of absolutely nothing noteworthy happening until the last few minutes, and then main guy is running from assailants, he falls off the road into the woods, he falls out of the woods into a vent(???), and he falls through the vent into a cryogenics tube to be woken up a decade later. It wasn't great.

Oh, if the reason you're asking is 'why is the style so much like Last Period', then you've got a good eye. Even though the anime char designers and studios are different, both games come from the same artist's designs. Which is kind of amazing honestly�if you look at the art direction for both games, they're different enough that it's hard to tell via color profile and anatomy. Only the faces are similar.

I think it's mostly the hair. like this Last Period character:

vs this part of the trailer:

I've watched all episodes so far, but I can't really recommend it. The writing is weird, because a lot of the time it feels as if the characters do what they're doing because the plot demands it, without actually having an in-universe reason.
Or there are interesting setpieces (driving through the creepy abandoned subway tunnel, Derrida and that other guy sneaking into the evil company while wearing suits), but the writers couldn't think of a way to link up those parts, so...they didn't even bother and just hard cut from one to the other.

Run With The Wind Ep. 2 is just a reminder that people at Production I.G. are really good at making pictures move. If enough people are watching it, I might make a thread. I like all the characters, they're fun together and can't wait to see them develop. It looks they'll actually run next week. Also like Season 3 of Free, seeing a college setting in anime really trips me out for some reason.

also we saw all the boys naked this week

here are my fav boys so far eating breakfast right next together

it's not awful but it's not good and aside from the ED you'd probably never realize ABe did any work on it at all, since they just couldn't afford the kind of production schedule that would let his style show through in designs/bgs

I watched the first episode of Run With The Wind and I think there's definitely something special here. Helps that the soundtrack is great. Glad to hear that it's got 23 episodes slotted.

double decker, reincarnated as a slime, skull-face bookseller honda-san, and the vampire neighbor anime are all pretty good and worth watching, imo, if you want to have a nice fun time. never watch the space fish show. rerided is disappointing. i'm dreaming of a day when anyone else gets to stream spyce and bloom into you but otherwise have no opinions on them..

double decker is the best.

that's my season so far. thank you for reading.

I think I'm already following about 8 anime this season, but might try to fit in Double Decker as well depending on my time. My personal "shaping up to be something special" list: Run With The Wind, Gridman, Zombieland. Pretty anime I'm watching: Bunny girl senpai, Irozuku. Fun ones: Slime, Honda-san, Golden Kamuy S2, Anima Yell.

I hear that Conception is weirdly tame for a show with that premise. Like, they make kids by combining their auras into some kind of magical egg rather than banging or something.

did you think the show was actually about loving and then girls having tons of actual pregnancies and giving actual birth to kids

conception is worthwhile just for the gag in conception 2 where all the girls get mad at the protagonist and wont make more magic babies with him and the dumbass male best friend character goes "Bro... don't worry.. I'll take their place." and the scientist lady goes "It won't work with two men," and the dumbass guy goes "Well, no harm in trying."

I mean, we do tend to get one or two porny shows per season. That, or they were going to make like in Twin Star Exorcists and just set up the romance with the implied world-saving loving coming after the show’s over.

well, it's an adaptation of a psp dungeon crawler that has a sequel where you have an army of minigun babies that you take into dungeons to fight monsters with, and the games are not exactly fanservicey let alone porny
