Captain Invictus posted:Campfire Cooking in Another World, and Endo and Kobayashi's Latest on the Tsundere Villainess are the two I'm mostly anticipating will be done well as far as adaptations I'm interested in go, based on their previews. Endo and Kobayashi's is a solid take on the typical otome game setting, and the characters and humor are excellent. Campfire Cooking is a chill isekai; salaryman gets accidentally summoned, his ability is Literally Just Amazon, he befriends Fenrir the legendary wolf, Fenrir becomes his familiar in exchange for food, they become traveling nomads. I expect a lot of highly detailed cooking since that's mostly what he does, while Fenrir and Sui take care of combat situations. Sui is such a great little baby slime that they got their own spinoff series, Sui's Big Adventure. Would love to see some of that get adapted as an ova or something. In the meantime, MAPPA is posting a Youtube cooking show where the main character's VA cooks for the rest of the cast, which is really committing to the bit.  Here he is preparing Salmon Meuniere for Sui's VAshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqE49aaoxEI

Southern Cassowary posted:Watched the first episode of Spy Classroom. Thought it was pretty mediocre. It's not much to look at and the writing is pretty straightforward, just feels like they're trying to take a plot from point a to point b. The angle on the spies all being washouts and the teacher being a natural who sucks at teaching and where that goes is kind of funny. I think there's room for this to grow into something now that they've set up the premise and can focus on more character development, but I'm not really expecting that. I'll give it another episode or two but, eh. i looked at the PV and the dichotomy between 'they are spies!' and them all seeming to be bright chipper factory standard Eccentric Anime Girls gave me the impression that there isn't going to be a single original idea in the whole thing

Haven't really seen anything that's stuck thus far outside of Tomo-chan. If people keep saying good things about Magical Revolution I'll probably check it out.

New Trigun sneak peek. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jrKwkYjhCE I'm  ing at the climax of Vash getting tossed a single round of loving .22 LR to resolve the impending doom. That explains why the bore of his gun looks so tiny but it certainly a downgrade from the original's .45 Colt EDIT: So apparently, .22 LR cannot be safely fired in a .22 Magnum gun which means Vash's gun is chambered for .22 LR and thus practically a pea shooter; yes .22 LR is still capable of being lethal but it's a pea shooter compared to the original. At least it should shoot softly out of a gun that massive. Edward IV fucked around with this message at 05:21 on Jan 6, 2023 |

I mean, Vash's gun is extremely weird for plot-related reasons that maybe shouldn't be discussed here (this being a new series based on an old manga, with all the attendant ambiguities over spoiler etiquette), so it wouldn't be all that surprising if it can do a lot more with a lot less than any conventional firearm.

imo to cover the proper bases, talking about stuff from the old anime is fine, but tag anything that was in the manga that was not in the anime just in case

Was quite surprised to learn that Tite Kubo didn't do the character designs for Revenger (seeing as he's been known to do designs for other people's work before). Those long faces looked very familiar.

genericnick posted:Wait, are there two shows in the same season that are called Revenger? How? That's not even a word. There's an pun in the first episode where the typical Urobuchi duplicitous fancypants talks about how their business is a 利便屋 (riben-ya) which is an old timey way to refer to a odd jobs/jack of all trades type of operation that just so happens to sound vaguely like "Revenger"

It is kind of amusing how that Urobuchi archetype has gradually moved from being the arch-enemy of the protagonist to the ideal boyfriend of the protagonist. You can almost track the progression story by story.

It's been forever since I read Tomo-chan but it's pretty inoffensive atm OniMai is about as expected. Quality is relatively higher than I expected, but it's only the first ep.

Watched the first episode of MagiRevo and it's already making some very smart adaptation choices versus the manga, like actually giving Al motivation for what he does instead of making him look like a generic otoge villainess antagonist fiancé, or introducing Tilty immediately. I know it's originally an LN so I wonder whether this was an issue of the manga making weird decisions, or whether it was faithful to the LN and the anime adaptation decided to bake later reveals into the narrative right from the start to give everyone more depth.

I read the first couple of chapters of the Iceblade Sorcerer manga, and it seemed like a bland but pleasant story about a mildly traumatised ex-child soldier going to school to get a bit of his childhood back. It also had a pleasingly good face game. Then I watched the first episode of the anime, expecting it to be much the same. It, erm, wasn't. It's got the same general structure and plot beats, but either the manga adapted the hell out of the original light novel or the anime completely butchered it, because every adaptation decision regarding pacing, event structuring, aesthetic choices, and so on was drastically different and drastically worse. Like, it didn't even feel like they were squeezing chapters together to churn out content fast - it was the same stuff presented in vastly divergent ways. As an example, here's the class teacher's introduction in the manga, and here's the same scene in the anime. Yes, these are apparently the same character:   Also, look at the compositing between the background of that anime screenshot and the character in the foreground, ew ew ew. It's really not a pretty show.

I watched trigun right up until the final episode. Then I said "I'll watch this tomorrow" and I never did I've since forgotten enough that I'd want to do a rewatch instead of just jumping into the final episode and I've never felt strongly enough about a rewatch to do it A tragic victim of my short attention span. At the time at least I thought it was very good

trigun's fun. wouldn't say it's like, a must watch, but if you're into its vibes it's as good a show as it always was and i think the 90s anime will still be worth a look after stampede is out

OniMai: This anime is weird. On one hand, it's very well animated (The ED in particular fetures very fluid movement on the characters), and the cinematography is great. On the other hand, this is an anime of culture made by the Studio that animated Mushoku Tensei. You could see their influence from the many cultural moment in the episode. It's really good. But it's not something you can watch with your parents or watch in public. Edit: Its not something you can watch with your parents or watch in public.

Onimai is a comedy laser targeted at me and my very juvenile sense of humor and nothing in the episode crossed my personal line, so it's probably got a season pass from me barring just absolutely smashing itself in the face somewhere in the middle. I feel like the best description I have of it from trying to describe it to a pal is "what if original-series Washu was your little sister, and just as unethical/scandalous, but played as a heartwarming??? comedy". The lead plays straight man to this insanity very well without feeling two-dimensional about it.
