They're supposed to be announcing a bunch of new Haikyuu projects this year, hopefully at least one of them is more anime

I think. It's been 20 years since my last watch, I think?

I’m afraid to do a rewatch of Excel Saga just because it has been so long; and I don’t know if the comedy will hold up.

The timeline got me feeling nostalgic for waiting a year for a 12 episode series to come out on DVD in batches of 3 and watching the episodes you had over and over so the series feels longer than it actually is

I had the manga on my to-read list for a long time but never got around to reading it, then I heard the anime was botched to hell so just dove in over the course of a week to the manga and really really loved it. genuinely one of the better isekai series out there, and I love how the actually "retained memories" aspect of it is handled and used in the story itself. really uniquely done compared to most isekai.

I didn't bother with the anime due to hearing it was a bad adaptation, how did they badly handle it? did they ruin specific scenes and such? and up to what point did the anime get?

There is no problem that cannot be solved through sufficient application of lasers and friendship.
Saihate no Paladin both missed a week and had a recap episode before finishing the fight against Stagnate. The pacing was just really weird, and if it wasn't for Menel being in the OP, would have thought they were aiming at a half cours series with Will's departure from the ruined city being the ending. As it was, that's when I stopped watching.

Oh I see! This must be the Bad Opinion Zone!
Watched a bit of Brigadoon: Marin to Melan. It's kinda offputting the way the series fixates so much on the child main character's panties. Should I keep watching this or drop it?

Got curious and decided to look further into the current Kanokari fanbase's mood, and it's fun.
For those that aren't up to date, this comment sums it up:

quote:

That's because the previous "arc" is over.

1. So now every character will go back to their initial state.

2. Then they'll show some promise to grow (here's where the fans will start to defend the series again)

3. Then the readers will be cockblocked and everything will be stretched as much as it can be (here's where the haters will start making GBS threads again)

4. Then the arc ends with nothing of significance (here's where everyone collectively shits on the story and characters, again)

5. Repeat.

This has been going for 200+ chapters, I don't think it'll ever change.

People are (rightfully) pissed it off and (somewhat rightfully) calling it one of the worst manga in recent times.
Seeing a manga that was so praised become... this is quite the ride
