I apologize for the judging nature of my post. If you wanna play the Hogwarts game, at least do it in a way where WB and JK get no money. I recommend one of those Gamestop used copies where it's obvious that they just took the shrink wrap off of a new copy they couldn't sell and put a discount sticker on it. That way, you can be sure!

was rewatching the end of mugen train with my sis and i had forgotten how effective the end of it was at making you sad. my sister was caught off guard. how come the cool magic sword fight japanese cartoon makes you feel feels so often was also reminded of the absurd production value of entertainment district. the loving intro alone...

I didn’t watch the newest season of Demon Slayer cause I had seen the movie and them going “yeah we’re showing the movie again but in episode form now” killed my drive to watch it and I forgot to start when the Entertainment arc started. If I’ve seen the movie can I just jump right into the new arc or does the TV cut change anything that I need to watch like the last episode or two of the Mugen Train stuff?

Sadly I don't think it was ever translated. I do know the OVA events are pretty far into it and it went a while after. Edit: Using the old cbr format but they are the "Super Turtles" series in this link http://tmntentity.blogspot.com/2009/05/tmnt-manga.html?m=1 Mokinokaro fucked around with this message at 14:17 on Mar 16, 2022 |

RareAcumen posted:So since it has become the topic, what's a good magic anime then? I've seen LWA and I keep up with Mashle. I was weirdly fond of the Fate/Zero spinoff where the kid wizard had grown up to be a wizard professor who was also a detective. He investigated mysteries, and none of them made any sense because everyone involved was a wizard.

I just finally watched the last three episodes of Deca-Dence. I don't know why people say that show falls off, sure it peaked with episode 5 but I really enjoyed it the whole way through.

it doesn't fall off so much as play out in an increasingly familiar way for a dystopia story, the dramatic irony stuff in the first arc was a lot more unique and impactful

The prison arc is absurdly slow compared to everything that comes before it. I dropped the show around episode nine

Arist posted:I just finally watched the last three episodes of Deca-Dence. I don't know why people say that show falls off, sure it peaked with episode 5 but I really enjoyed it the whole way through. It's a solid show all the way through, but with how shocking the episode 2 twist was, and with the high-concept setting, people had high expectations for a really interesting narrative payoff, which wound up being a more traditional story narrative, and things worked out rather conveniently towards the end. Also, Natsume doesn't get to do too much in the back half of the show, which feels like a narrative misstep. TL;dr: people had their hopes up for an all time classic/thought provoking show, and it didn't meet those expectations.

Yeah my only problems with it (and they're small ones) are Natsume being kinda sidelined in the second half and the completely pointless death of Pipe

Natsume is the better lead of Deca-dance and the fact the second half makes her a supporting character was a big misstep and while the whole isn't bad it really didn't reach the heights I thought it could.

Thanks for the magic manga recommendations, I keep forgetting that Flying Witch is a thing and I got maybe 6 chapters into Iruma-kun way back when before I just wandered off to look at other things.

I somehow ended up with a 3 months free trial of crunchyroll so decided to watch anime for the first time in over a decade. What is the current good thing in slice-of-life/romance/comedy that I should be watching? I decided to start my journey back into the world by re-watching all of Toradora! which both holds up very well and has a very frustrating last ~5 minutes.

it's fan servicey but in a strange twist it doesn't bother me because i expect it in a story about otakus. normally it feels like someone at the publisher mandated it so they could sell more gacha or something.

I think if the main heroine was standard stuff the fanservice would bug me more. As it is, most of the fanservice stuff involving her has me immediately wonder if she's gonna notice what she's doing to this poor boy. She's hyper unaware pretty often. It's always funny.

I think why it really works here is that Marin when in cosplay mode is just focused on cosplay and shuts everything else out, but when she gets out of cosplay mode she starts to notice or even falls head over heels herself (like the clothes shopping in this weeks episode). It makes things feel way more natural
