What I'm getting at is that Horizon turns me into that guy from Cromartie High who watched every episode and read all the supplemental materials of the comedy duo he hated, because he couldn't understand it, and not understanding it bugged the hell out of him.

I think it has some fun and cool stuff to it if you're willing to accept the premise.

Though to be fair I also like Gundam Wing.

I watched four episodes and it was boring and nothing made sense.

hello all, goon reviews here with my review of ninja scroll. *scoffing vociferously* let's just get this one out of the way first, folks: the shogun of the dark was NOT a real historical figure. shameful that they'd try to pass it off like it was.

If the message you took away from my complaints is that I dislike Horizon because it's unrealistic I'm uh not really sure what else I can say in response

I mean poo poo, you don't need to take my word for it, the whole thing's available on CrunchyRoll. If nothing else it's a very colorful and frenetic show, and maybe you'll be the one who can finally explain the backstory in a satisfactory way. In the meantime I... guess I'll continue watching the bastion of hard-nosed realism that is Flip-Flappers?

That's pretty much LN territory since the anime does suck at explaining things even more than the LNs do, and I don't plan to read those until they're done being translated which at current pace is probably another 4-6 years out.

so you are saying that even you, the un-ironic horizon fan who is rarer than a unicorn outside of japan, has no loving idea what is going on there.

I might watch new New Game since I heard good things about old New Game! that's all I got. Maybe if I ever catch up with Monogatari I'll watch that.

also man i didnt watch a drat thing this season so maybe I'll catch up. i was interested in sakura quest, glad to hear that was good. I'd like to get into Natsume Yuujinchou but that's got 6 seasons gently caress me. I've also heard really good things about Alice and Zoroku but don't know a dang thing about it.

Otherwise i'm watching dragonball and sailor moon all summer, god bless

I was real excited for that, but I saw a lot of mixed takes on it so I cooled hard. I'll prob give it a look for myself tho when it's finally on Netflix!

i want too, i've heard it's good and chill but i'm just lazy as hell

I think what happened to me was that iwatched March Comes In Like A Lion a few months ago and I enjoyed it so much that my anime appetite was gone so I took a knee until now

Yeah, it's only the first half, and I don't think it's even going to be dubbed yet, so they don't even have that excuse. I know Netflix is bad with anime, but their treatment of their first anime that people actually wanna watch just seems spiteful.

LWA is really good, and cute, and fun. It's like that Dr. McNinja shirt that has a shark and a Gorilla high-fiving. Like almost all of DRRR!!, but cuter.

It's episodic so you could take it as slow as you want to. But if you want something really standalone, watch Hotarubi no Mori e. It's a short 44 minute movie by the same mangaka, and it's got a very similar feel to Natsume even it's totally unrelated.

Hina Logic seems like a good show w/ Precure-esque simple vibrancy to the setting and chars. It feels like "animate a kids show, but in a late-nite time slot" is catching on fast.

it's a story about a princess who runs away from home to enlist in a school for magical girls so she can meet the girl she saw on TV and developed a crush on. if that sounds cute, check out ep 1. it's by Doga Kobo so it's full of charming animation
