Those both look about as horrible as could be expected, and the music for the Manga show is shrill as gently caress.

Dehry posted:I can't read Japanese all that well, but I thought I would try to discern what was happening from the images, but apparently that's an actual novel. Other than a picture of a girl drawing Neo-Dark Flame Master's weird tatoo thing, it coming alive and him opening a bag of chips while using his power level, I can't tell what is going on. They literally describe the male character as a Chuunibyou, so it's even less creative than previously thought.

I don't think it's out of line to point out when something is creepy or misogynistic in its portrayal of female characters, especially when it's in a broadcast medium and the driving force of a consumer market. Like it or not, this kind of stuff has not just societal implications but also affects the creative process for those who work to produce animation. Some might want to dismiss this kind of discussion as feminist social justice warrior babble or white-knighting, but that doesn't make the problematic aspects and their effects just disappear. I think overall people have become more aware of media representation, and there is a reactionary backlash (mostly amongst dudes who have never personally had to think about how their gender or race was being portrayed in popular culture before) against people who are calling for more thought in how subjects are addressed. Despite the stereotypes to the contrary, it's entirely possible to make something that doesn't denigrate people that isn't at the same time a humorless didactic treatise. There are plenty of great films and TV shows that have done so in the past.

I'm enjoying Haikyuu and Baby Steps a lot more than I was expecting. I'm really wavering a lot with Captain Earth, although I'll probably watch out of sheer inertia. Absolutely everyone and their dog needs to be watching Ping-Pong, which has fired on all cylinders from the start.

The Space Dandy dub is fantastic, and I actually prefer it over the original. Sometimes you get good audio directors and script supervisors, and sometimes they're just asleep at the wheel and cast Vic Mignona.

The later episodes start making fun of the protagonist, who I genuinely wonder is autistic or something.
