East asia's taste in anime is far more superior than ours (switch out SAO for double decker and it would be perfect)

Also people on message boards saying they want to go to saga (because of zombieland) but its so far away

I'm surprised east Asia has five anime titles available to be honest

I thought that the words "hardcore lolicon" in the show's synopsis would have been enough for anyone to deem it creepy.

Three. The third is so beyond the pale that I can't find the words. And that's not in the description. The description doesn't even hint at what it is just hey it's a maid.

The first episode was ridiculously well made and I was confused why nobody else was saying so.

Well also in hindsight the second episode was also horrific.

I mean, probably because one of the main characters being a pedophile was right in the summary. That sort of thing tends to make a three episode test unnecessary.

That's a surprise. I kind of forgot about that one since scans seem to have dried up, but I guess it's still running?

From the map, it looks like Japan is counted as part of East Asia, and I would certainly hope they have more than 5 anime available.

Also yeah, there hasn't really been much to make fun of this season yet, it's just kinda really boring.

Gridman has such good CG, my god. The handling of shadows is incredible and things move so well. I dunno if they're using really polished mocap or hand-keying it, but its great.

I need you to explain how the gently caress you got past the maid saying "I'm not interested in girls who've begun to menstruate" in the first episode without realizing she was a pedophile.

Please remember that the Alicization arc lasts 10 books. The fact that the anime appears to be making some effort into putting its metaphorical pedal to the metal is an improvement.

They're prob sharing in house stuff that they've prob been developing for a while considering promare is entirely cg

I really wish Irozuku was a 2-cour because the first 4 episodes were a nice slow burn but the last episode upped the pacing like they just remembered they only had 13 episodes to work with. I just want more 2-cour PA Works shows :(

Hell yeah. I really think Shirobako is one of the best series I've seen and I liked Sakura Quest a lot. I need to go back and watch Hanasaku Iroha and NagiAsu eventually.

Did Sakura Quest end decently? The first few eps of the second cour were miserable as gently caress and I just kinda stopped watching it.

It's not as strong as Hanasaku Iroha or Shirobako, but it's still pretty decent.

The show really picks up after that and I'd say as a whole the second cour is way better than the first. Ending is quite good

Goblin Slayer has gone 3 episodes without being gross, I hope it keeps this up.

Man I really wish that the ace attorney anime could skip the next trial, it's so loving terrible and dumb. At least bridge and beginning are really good; iirc beginning doesn't have phoenix in it at all, it's just mia and edgeworth

I wouldn't mind a second season of Yoshino's adventures in Okinawa, but Sakura Quest ended pretty satisfyingly IMO.

The only reason I was pushing Goblin Slayer in the first place was because I mainly remembered the chapters (episodes now) after the opening arc.
That being said I should've known better considering this environment.
