it'd probably take at least a 4th season to go through the rest of the manga, i think.

I watched the first episode of Date A Live last night and boy was that a blast of nostalgia for that type of anime.

The Islamic Shock posted:Yes, the central plot really is that loving stupid. Watch it anyway if you're curious as to how the hell that dumbass premise ends up making an anime that's actually pretty okay. Date A Live is one of those shows that should be incredibly bad but they're so committed to the bit and willing to have fun with it that it ends up being enjoyable. It is the epitome of anime-as-a-genre-rather-than-a-medium.

Anybody else watch Bubble? The story is...straightforward, but as an excuse for Wit to spend 90 minutes animating movie-quality parkour in a gorgeous urban decay setting full of gravitational anomalies (one of the writers wrote Gravity Rush and it shows) it was well worth it.

I really don't see how you can call it straightforward with both the narrative and themes being confused messes, making for a very tedious runtime. And the song they keep referencing that bubble girl has is like three notes long, but man are they an annoying three notes.

The story is...straightforward, but as an excuse for Wit to spend 90 minutes animating movie-quality parkour in a gorgeous urban decay setting full of gravitational anomalies (one of the writers wrote Gravity Rush and it shows) it was well worth it. I liked it well enough, when it remembers to be a crowd pleaser teen romance parkour movie, it tells it's story w a propulsive focus and there's plenty of cute things I liked about it. I liked how the male lead's initial reactions to Uta's puppy love are "whatever" and "ew, personal space" and "wow she's good at parkour. She was singing or somethin, I dunno. She can be Song." There's definitely some classic Urobochi in there w the cheeky ways he works in lore/exposition and the surprisingly nifty gadgetry(loved how Undertaker's sweet tech are these cute lil squirt nozzle heels.) I almost admired the way the focus on forward momentum extends to keeping most of the cast the same basic understandable archetypes from beginning to end, just the dedication displayed throughout in just continuously doggin on the long haired not-a-rival the. whole. time. Even in his heroic moments. Hilarious. When glasses lady gets kidnapped for the big showdown w Undertaker, there's like no stakes to the moment at all lol. You're never worried anything will really happen, just a dash of drama to spice things up. And I guess the lame thing about the ending is you could could apply that to it, too. When it gets "confusing" is all at the end, the loudly announced third act, and for me, it was mostly a matter of not setting very solid stakes. The Third Impact-y bubble fall imagery was neat but mainly I was thinkin, "so, if she goes back, does that stop the fall, or cause it?" There are interesting ideas that are left on the table to go for the most straightforward save the princess model they could do, and love bubbles save the day. My mental disconnect came from being unclear on that front and what was at stake, but then I just took poo poo at face value and relaxed lol. As a movie, it's mostly a fun time, but as an adaptation of The Little Mermaid(one of the more heteronormative out there), it's hard to know what to make of it, the meta way it uses a version of the story itself to inform the lead's character and help her learn humanity. The way it comments on it. The musings on spirals and reverberations of reunions and parting, for good and ill, the implications of the ending, do, in a nerdy sci-fi kinda way, vibe in spirit w the original story's monologues on the everlasting human soul. And, I mean, even if it meant the obvious self-sacrifice, it was her choice that let her be w her man in the end, and that IS a different ending. It's humanist and positive in a doofily obvious way that reminds me a lil of yuasa's recent stuff really.

Why does everybody in Shikimori have such bizarrely shiny eyes? It's like the hair in Gankutsuou, but instead of having hair that's a portal to the Plaid Dimension, everybody's irises are a gateway to the Shiny Zone.

It's a very good cute wholesome and fluffy romcom SoL devoid of the usual BS angst, drama, etc., featuring a very nice boy who is shy and awkward has bad luck and his very cool girlfriend. People in certain circles REALLY do not seem to like that about the series.

its one of those series with only mildly funny comedy and no drama so you really have to be into just watching the couple be cute together. not enough there for me. the same team did the annoying senpai one a couple seasons ago and that was the same deal

Shikamori isn't bad but it is also so very middle of the road and that stands out when you air during a season that has Kaguya as a romcom and immediately after Dress up Darling
