I can’t believe I only learned today that Tanya the Evil is a satire

In my defense, I didn’t watch it
also, it's set in WWI Germany, not WWII Germany. the nazi takes are pretty baffling, honestly

Just let yourself become a worthless person!
in fairness the tactics and war details are pretty clearly ww1 and ww2 smushed together plus some isekai fantasy nonsense. the fake russians are clearly the Soviet Union for example. the fake germany is definitely ww1 germany though, as, well, the author didn’t want to write about a heroic nazi.

I have watched a total of 6 episodes of Tanya and was able to easily come to the conclusion that Tanya was good

Episode 1 kinda sucked though, they should've just started where Episode 2 did and not have an action packed first episode

I found Tanya mostly kinda boring because it keeps going back to the well of introducing some vengeful antagonist we spend an ep or two pretending is a real threat before the confrontation happens and they're defeated in approximately eight seconds

We need more women in STEM, and by that, I mean skateboarding, television, esports, and magic.
Almost done with Haruhi Suzumiya; I just need to watch the movie.

That said, I saw that there's a show called The Disappearance of Nagato Yuki-chan that I think is tied in some way to the movie. Did that show get dubbed, and if so, is there anywhere (legal) to stream it? I didn't see it on Funimation. Thanks!

You see it on Funimation streaming? Huh, I can't find it for some reason.

Also, is it, like, abysmal? Or just a downgrade from the original series?

As mentioned by others, it's not as visually impressive as the original. But if you like slow high school light-romcoms it's a very comfy show.

I feel like, once watching the movie you'll immediately understand the premise of yuki-chan, and to what degree it would interest you to watch

I enjoyed reading the Yuki-chan manga as it felt like fanfic but in manga form but the anime just bounced off me

I just read the entire series in the past week and it absolutely blew me away. Berserk is still my favorite, but it was very difficult to put 20th Century Boys down. I always had to read what came next.

Naoki Urusawa is great and writing thrillers and dragging the reader along. If you haven't done so yet, Definitely check out his other works, Pluto, Monster, and Billy Bat
