I was surprised the ending wasn't as conclusive as I expected, then I found out there are like three times more volumes that haven't been adapted.

I wouldn't mind seeing more SAFT, but I feel like it needs a time skip.

I don't know, I think they covered all the major variations in the anime: Ann gets kidnapped, Shall gets kidnapped, Ann and Shall get kidnapped together, etc. It was okay but Shall needs to work on more stabbing some problems and less giving his wing over and waiting for Ann to craft the right candy to get him out of it.

i can agree with that, though some of the teacher bits are also extremely good. just unfortunately punctuated by that poo poo

I'm willing to tolerate the character exclusively because of the conversation between Rengoku, Miyamura and the teacher about the mandatory swimming class

I noticed Undead Unluck was conspicuously absent from Crunchyroll's simulcast announcements and apparently it's exclusive to Hulu? Lmao

if it's on Hulu i assume it's on Disney+ everywhere else in the world. iger thinks americans can't handle anime on Disney+ so they have to put it on Hulu instead, which they did for Summer Time Rendering

tbf Summer Time Rendering is a weird fit for Disney+

Which of course just makes it that much odder that they picked it up, obviously

also i think anything 20th Century Fox was working on pre-merger just all got thrown onto hulu, which is why the Bob's Burgers movie is there, but also actual movies that should've been in theaters like Prey, and No One Will Save You which just came out... the latter two Disney just made "Hulu Originals"

Hulu is just where Disney stuff goes when it's too adult (or even remotely queer)

For now. There's a long term project to scrap Hulu over the next year or so. After that happens there'll be an adults section of Disney +.

catching up on maou-sama, halfway thru.
actually enjoying it a bit, has some good chiho and emi moments that i felt the last season lacked. and its kind of neat seeing the build up of how OP Chiho might be

Prepare to be disappointed.

After this arc, they'd be better off doing an OVA or mixing it up with the subsequent part because the arc after the end of S2 is Maou's backstory on how he conquered the Demon Realm and it feel fairly boring just being stuck there and not mixing it with something else.

Hard agree. That's why I think a time skip could shake things up. It's odd how common they are in Shonen but not so much in Shojo.

I feel like the last time skip I saw in a shojo adjacent show was Aquatope.

Skip five years forward, Ann has decided to found her own workshop, maybe her students have to make the right sugar confection using what they have learned from Ann when she gets kidnapped by the diamond fairy instead of Ann doing it directly... that's different, right?

A pity, because I really liked the last two episodes. The show found it's grove once the full gang got finally together and could freely bounce against each other.

in fact i believe in some regards having animators who are comfortable in their work and living situations will lead to higher quality work

If you continue to watch seasonals but fewer of them, you can create this reality.
