the director sucks rear end but it's not like he has a career to support anymore by watching it he's already been blacklisted from the industry. hasn't worked on a single show since his tweets got attention, turns out being an open nazi doesn't open up your career opportunities

he storyboarded an ep of didnt i say to make my abilities average in the next life just to complete the perfect storm of that being a terrible adaptation, i guess. really bizarre there. but its a pretty minor role so w/e

idk i felt like that about in/spectre and vinland saga and then their second episodes were both immediately more engrossing, i think they sometimes overthink 'reintroducing' these shows and end up with a weird underbaked episode rather than just dropping right into the new material. we'll see

The second episode of In/Spectre def gave me Spice and Wolf vibes from the interactions of the climber and the yokai

i did consider watching this, heard about the director's awful takes, then ended up not going back to it even though the director's awful takes aren't that important to my ability to enjoy media. i just kinda checked out for no reason. (also i feel like the show will just make me mad at myself maybe)

After discovering that his orphanage was on the brink of closing due to financial stress, Finn, who was living freely on the streets, set out for a casino with the aim of making a fortune. However, nothing could have prepared Finn for the nightmare that was awaiting him. Once there, Finn encountered a car chase and bloody shootout caused by a man's “lucky” card.
Finn will eventually learn what the shootout was about. The world order can be controlled by a set of 52 X-Playing cards with the power to bestow different superhuman powers and abilities to the ones that possess them. With these cards, people can access the hidden power of the “buddy” that can be found within themselves.

not everyone can be the 'jews fear the samurai' guy who was at least funny and had some kind of weird warrior culture tier list. iirc cowboys were samurai. i think it (rightfully, tbh) got nuked off of YouTube but the dude giving his incoherent lecture in a robe with an underarmor shirt sticking out had a nice surreal feel to it.

Well you see The Magnificent Seven was based on Seven Samurai therefore they must be the same.

My fault for watching it but the cooking isekai is wicked boring. The cooking has just involved throwing bottled sauces on top of meat, the MC's ability to grab stuff from amazon suggests there'll never be any culinary experimentation, and I dare you to name one of his personality traits. Plus the latest episode immediately defuses any possible financial tension since he can just resell condiments for mad profit. I assume all of these SoL isekai where the reader self-insert has a modern ability are like this, I just checked this one out because it's mappa tbh.

Kaina 2nd episode was weaker than the first. It felt a bit too rushed so they could start the 'adventure' part already, but in reality it would have made more sense if both sides interrogated each other more, and Kaina should have much more doubts about going or not, he should have felt much more conflicted, just think about it: that's the place he has known for all his life, and those are the people he has grown with since being a baby. Going down the tree, knowing he won't return and he won't ever see them again, should be hard.
