Davincie posted:that is Starship Operators. its alright, solid middle of the road anime. i enjoyed its dedication to realism Yeah seems like this may be it. I need to watch an ep or two to be sure. I didn't recall this much of the cast being female though so that's partly something that didn't hold up to memory. e: thank you That Works fucked around with this message at 21:38 on Jan 10, 2020 |

Who’s got recommendations for: Educational Suitable for middle school students in a school setting. My gf is considering starting a school anime club and is looking for recommendations that fit the above bill. Off the top of my head, we’re thinkin silver spoon and shirobako.

AnoHito posted:Cowards... The dub on Cells at Works is also fantastic  . They actually get that the show's half theater/pantomime performance in the delivery.On a more general recommendation; the new Nichijou dub is surprisingly really good. They nail the characters voices, and localize some of the trickier jokes quite well. Literally the only bad thing about it was their usual bad habit of not translating names where it's actually relevant strikes, so you get "Hakase" instead of "Professor". On the plus side though, they even kept the tradition of having a rotating selection of well-known dub VA's for the next-episode previews.

Blood tho. Episodes are only like 3 minutes long if they wanna prescreen it or something. Teach them about the sengoku era of Japanese history

yeah it's not a series to worry about bumming you out. it's a black comedy the entire time, even the most disturbing stories are still rather funny.

What you describe is exactly the premise of The Little Match Girl; I haven't seen the anime but at least the manga is fairly solid.

Yeah, the old thread got archived, and people have just been asking wherever, whether in new threads or the chat threads. If nobody else feels like doing it I can make a new one tomorrow. Also feel free to ask your question in this thread.

They're was an anime I watched. It was a submarine based show. There was a town on an island with a steep hill that I think they used to roll a cannonball or something like that down it to defend themselves

It's a new year (and a new username), so I suppose after years of doing this I should make a final post about that new Twelve Kingdoms novel. It actually came out! Seriously! Twice as long as the next longest book, it released as two books and four volumes in October and November. No more yearly apology tweets for the delays. My Japanese friend and fellow fan read and really enjoyed them, so I guess the long wait for a fan translation now begins, or god forbid an official re-license.
