i think... it might be better if the new anime does the first four arcs and saves all of kai for later, instead of ending s1 on chapter 6, cause if you do that you could spread s1 out to 7/7/7/4 for episode distribution for each chapter and that's just like. if you want to do it evenly. four eps for each feels like it's squeezing it way too much for anything but chapter 4
I've read that the new anime will be doing just Onikakushi and Watanagashi for its first cour, which would put it roughly on this schedule.

i read through the manga for uta-kata. it didn't give me a lot more interest in watching the anime but i did appreciate that out of the entire cast of depressed teenagers who get tied up in self-hatred and relationship drama one of the main character's friends is just a lesbian who stands around and makes jokes about being gay and nobody really minds. also the resolution to the love triangle stuff between the two other friends kinda ruled

i'd give it a 6... out of 10

Maybe not traditional anime, but I’ve binged through the first 3 episodes of a new Chinese animation call Fog Hill (Wushan) of the Five element. The story seems intriguing so far, but the animation style and fight scenes are spectacular.

All episodes are available on YouTube with subs.

i really hope the new higurashi anime has a soundtrack as interesting and varied as the vn's, one thing i've really been missing in the old adaptation is how good the vn soundtrack is at setting a mood. a lot of it is royalty free stuff but like. it's used so well that it's easy to forget that when reading, compared to the anime where i really just remember none of the music at all cause it's so limited in terms of expression

oh I remember watching a pv for this a while back, it looked pretty neat

e: just finished watching it, neat fights and really gorgeous background art
The little "making of" clip at the end for some of the animation effects and ending drawing was fun also

ok i watched another arc and i've transferred from thinking the anime is flawed but has interesting aspects to thinking it's kind of bad. it's uh leaving me feeling very deeply disappointed and empty

like watanagashi isn't my favorite chapter but. the anime version of it was so dull and lifeless i had to look back on the screenshots i took while reading the vn to remind myself that it had personality and wasn't just a series of big scenes rushed through so hard they completely ceased to have anything approaching pacing or impact

I watched Abit when it aired in 2005 and thought it was kinda bad. It was competing with eureka 7 at that time for me though. And noein. And mushishi. And akagi.

Christ 2005 was such a powerhouse year.

it definitely does a huge disservice to the source material and compared to any other shows airing at the same time just... isn't very interesting to watch. really sad to think it's what defined a lot of people's memories of higurashi

vrv also includes hidive and is around the same price depending on when you sub and what deals you use and such

They got Boomerang AND Nick Splat, so you have two flavors of 90s/00s nostalgia.
