Just a friendly reminder of what it looks like.

We'll do punctuation later.
the princess in magirevo does do some vaguely typical isekai stuff like "i used my knowledge of the scientific method from my previous life to develop new magical tech!" but you could easily have her be an eccentric researcher without that backstory and that part of it is hardly relevant from what i've read

Sometimes isekai is just a framing device to justify the MC being eccentric and/or genre savvy

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.

Oh for sure dude.

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.

That's anime original stuff iirc

Personally I watched all of Eva when I was 13 and thought it was ok. I then watched half of Cowboy Bebop and dropped it. Finished Wolf's Rain though, hell yeah, good year of anime. Don't remember if I ever watched Trigun tbh

To stay on topic, MagiRevo was pretty good

Cool, thanks - the anime is looking like it'll be a very good adaptation and worth watching even if you've read the ~30 chapters that have been TLed into English.

still excited about how strong the execution on that magirevo premiere was. hope it carries through to the episodes that arent handled by the director
revenger is decent, very urobuchi-by-numbers writing but has strong art direction and layouts which is catnip for me, will give it a try
onimai they made too sus and not funny enough, not for me

Been reading more of the Iceblade manga, and it really is genuinely charming. I continue to be baffled by how the same source material could end up as such a radically different (and awful) anime - it's like the manga staff had all the good ideas on how to adapt the light novel, and the anime staff had all the bad ones.

Not to say that manga authors have it easy, but as far as adaptations go they're usually under a lot less production and corporate pressure than anime from what I've seen. There's plenty of them that are very clearly colored by the author's narrative and visual style while a lot of anime stick close to their source material and its illustrations even when they can't get said illustrator on the anime or even emulate them very well.

Giant Beasts of Ars: Sucks. Ugly animation, a bad soundtrack, and writing so straightforward and tropey that I wanted to dip several times during the episode.
