the anime of season 1 increased the romantic tension between the leads and made it incredibly explicit instead of only somewhat explicit. the manga had these events happen shortly after season 1 stopped airing. the director of season 1 got replaced. the anime of season 2 adapted the manga in a very straightforward fashion and iirc actually shuffled some events around to introduce the kid earlier. im not saying the amanchu/aria mangaka is a piece of poo poo, but they're a piece of poo poo. this doesn't mean you cant enjoy their work (aria, or heck, even amanchu), plenty of mangaka are weirdos or outright bad people. someone like the kenshin guy is a way worse person than the amanchu mangaka and i wouldn't begrudge anyone if they liked kenshin. but it's worth knowing.

I am not quite sure what I am looking for right now. I recently watched Boarding School Juliet, Koe no Katachi, and Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai so maybe something along those lines.

Just don't let the first episode fool you though, because the Shonen setup is a total fakeout. I also really liked Rascal, incidentally. Such a good show  .

Rascal is the best show with the worst ending. For something similar to Rascal's structure and storytelling but infinitely more stylishly (for better or worse) is the Monogatari series, starting with Bakemonogatari.

No. Quite frankly I'm not sure how you're even supposed to find all of them. Bakemonogatari recommends Nise in related videos, but Nise just recommends Bake. Searching Monogatari autofills Second Season, Nise, Bake, Tsuki, and Neko Black in that order. Also CR is missing episodes 13-15 of Bake so fuckin lol.

And it’s a single image with all the series listed as opposed to poking around Wikipedia, and as stated there’s not a single source with all the series in one place, barring Nyaa.

Never heard of it. there's a lot of very, very good stuff in it (hanamonogatari is great) but it starts rough and that element never really completely goes away. some of it can be excused by the fact that the main character's intentionally a horny weirdo who grows out of that immaturity over the series, especially since those elements mostly get dropped when the perspective shifts from his view point, but a lot of it is, yeah, just that kind of thing for that kind of thing's sake.

treating Nisemonogatari as uniquely bad when "Araragi hits on a dead 8-year-old" is a running gag throughout the entire series is a little disingenuous, i admit

I'm looking to start watching without subtitles and I'm interesting in hearing any thoughts from people who've done the same. I've had a few years of formal Japanese teaching so I'm fairly comfortable with the grammar, but I still miss on vocabulary fairly often. What's the best way to approach this? Do I briefly flick subs back on, stop and look it up, or suck it up and keep going? I'm also interested in any recommendations for stuff that's good to learn with, including non-anime stuff like news streams or whatever.

I'd suggest watching stuff with Japanese closed captions if you can. People sometimes upload the .srt files here: https://kitsunekko.net/

its cool but also almost entirely pop critque of japanese society so 80% of it goes over my head. Supremely cool visual and vocal direction. i like their new series thats pop critique of art and comic artists though, the core is more relatable. Check that comic out if I can remember what its called. https://mangadex.org/title/17019/kakushigoto this one!!!! Sharkopath fucked around with this message at 00:12 on Mar 7, 2019 |

the whole is good but if you watch too much after each other you start to notice the repetition all comedy anime suffer from + the budget and translation quality get worse every season

TheEye posted:Ah, yeah, for a long time the only translation of the latest short story collection Hisho's Birds was by a Japanese guy with awful English. Fortunately Eugene Woodbury picked it up since then and later finished it. He also confirmed forever ago that he'll be tackling the new novel whenever it comes out, so there will for sure be a good translation eventually. Glad that guy is still around. That said for as esoteric as that series/world can be it surprisingly did not take me that long to pick back up on most of its history and terminology and it remains a story I would very much like to see finished some day.

It's a bit episodic and some character focus episodes are better than others but it's got a ton of great animation/visual imagery in it and Nana is an amazing character. So yeah, it's pretty good overall.
