Huh, I'm in Love with the Villainess episode 3 went in a direction I really wasn't expecting. The main character, the villainess and two other characters sat down and had a frank and honest discussion about the protag being gay and her feelings for the villainess and whether she expects her to reciprocate at all (nope), and they all calmly and politely accepted it and then continued on as before. I really expected them to dance around for as long as possible for comedic/dramatic effect, I'm actually impressed.

haypliss posted:This guy does seem to be complaining? about the withdrawal of ninja from overseas to sit around in Japan. But I'll be honest, the continued time fuckery in the episodes kind of has me checking out on top of stalling any of these reveals from happening/plotlines from concluding. Yeah I still like it, but the way they chose to present it is real annoying. On the plus side I checked out Kroi after really getting into the OP song and they kick rear end.

Have to say that I've been finding paralive mostly kinda middling by how clunky the exposition is. Hello my twin brother nayuta as I lie beside you on the floor before we go to sleep in our barebones apartment let me tell you about our motivations and need for money to escape the living circumstances you and I can see around us

Don’t sleep on Migi and Dali. Same author as Sakamoto Desu Ga and just as batshit insane. If you like people solving mundane life situations with outlandishly complex schemes delivered like it’s a spy movie, check it out. Also very much enjoying Undead Unluck. It has some lovely “haha sexual harassment” stuff in the first episode but episode 2 made it clear that’s not going to be the running theme and introduced the power system in the world which seems very neat.

Undead Unluck is already a pretty good adaptation, and it just gets better from here. If by some chance you're not feeling it yet, Chapter 9 of the manga, which I assume they'll probably get to in episode 4 or 5, changes basically everything, to the point I could feel my mind expanding in real-time.

"I'm in love with the villainess" is A show about good takes about LGBTQ and politics that spends it's downtime on isekai antics, instead of a show about isekai antics that spends it's time dancing around LGBTQ and politics.

Rei's VA especially is great. She's playing her like an absolute dweeb. Totally fits and also has a very 90's dub charm to it. She could be arguing with other girls in Tenchi with this performance

I'm in Love with the Villainess has a great story, but this anime rendition certainly has below average framing and animation. As an example:  Where Claire is apparently pitched over at a ~35 degree angle as she approaches the prince, or he's on extremely steep hill. It also feels like they are animating on a lower keyframe budget too.

HOW COULD YOU posted:Also very much enjoying Undead Unluck. It has some lovely “haha sexual harassment” stuff in the first episode but episode 2 made it clear that’s not going to be the running theme and introduced the power system in the world which seems very neat. It also remains very consistent about Negator powers. There are exactly four types of Negators and no exceptions have been shown. 1. Compulsory activation self-targeting types. 2. Voluntary activation self-targeting types. 3. Compulsory activation external-targeting types. 4. Voluntary activation external-targeting types. Andy is a 1, Fuuko a 3, and Void is a 4.

Otoh the Seiyuu cast is knocking it out of the park. Rae's seiyuu really sold that deep down she didn't really believe her internal monolog Though visually it's pretty sub par to okay. I'm a bit shocked it so low budget and Shut in Vampire got a more lavish production though I suppose it being trashier and more fan service probably helps it

I'm not really vibing with Shy so far, the protagonist has been pretty dull and uninteresting. It sure doesn't help that by episode 3 they haven't explained how she got her powers at all (or even fully explained what her powers are, apart from showing that she can fly somewhat and has a little super strength) and the show started 3 months into her superheroing adventures when she's still incredibly hesitant about the entire deal and having a miserable time and is about to quit because she thinks she's doing an awful job and feels that everyone is disappointed in her and the entire thing is making her depressed. They drop hints that she's been involved in lots of rescues but they only show two incidents where she was awkward and clumsy. The end of episode 3 is setting up a situation where she'll be forced to confront her self doubt but I'm not invested in the character at all so

Yeah, pacing of Shy is all out of whack and it'll fall any three episodes test because who the gently caress cliffhangers there. Needed some compression, skipping, or rearranging. I'll give it through the cosplay heroing that I originally read through at least. Throw the mall stuff in later when you need padding.

Doodles posted:There's a little bit of change from the manga, since they took the time to clarify what Mia's role is and who she's part of, in type if not by specific name of the guild she's in. That comes later. Its just kind of a balancing act for me. Cause I'm in it for the 'this is an VRMMO game' So I'm willing to make allowances for the black box they have to make the game work and keep things interesting, like a crazy dynamic NPC AI that's so lifelike. And OP luck. But entering some portal into a bunny world that no one ever seen before seems bordering on SAO-isekai level VR shenanigans, when I just want a lets play VRMMO based showcase.

ep2 of 16-bit answered what I was wondering in ep1 pretty well I was wondering how she was gonna deal with illustrating when she was raised on digital art methods. was actually neat to see the process with the scanning/copying the page and coloring it in paint for the more low budget studios at least, in that time. good thing they didn't ask her to draw with pen and ink on paper, she would be a goner.

This should get clarified next episode but other people have gotten to bunny world and documented it, but only Sunraku has gotten to the harder version due to his markings Also probably past where the anime will end but eventually he’ll let the conditions slip and we’ll see at least one other person who makes it to the same scenario.
