Wark Say posted:Isn't that worse than being Offensively Bad? I mean, a show being awful and people making GBS threads on it is basically a career as a "Professional YouTuber" nowadays. When a show is loving dull, they're usually not worth mentioning. I'd disagree, if it was offensively bad I'd actively stop watching it. If it's moderately dull I'll just not put on the next episode and kinda move on.

Even bloody No Game No Life did that better by giving them a smartphone but since they have no internet, they can't google. But since they're obsessive in terms of winning everything, they've downloaded a whole bunch of trivia so they can win at quizzes.

A day late is shite for simulcasts though. I never thought this would be the case, but I really miss Crunchyroll's monopoly. They used to pick up nearly everything and it'll all be done on time with decent subs. Now its the wild west, especially if you're not American.

So it seems Amazon give UK Prime users two random anime each season, and we got Ballroom and Altair this time. I hope we get Princess Principal as well, but it's doubtful. Shame, really wanted to see Koi to Uso, but Altair seems good enough.

Princess Principal does right everything Joker Game did wrong. It's brilliant. Checking out Altair and Abyss next, if those are as good as people say this is a strong rear end season.

I watched smartphone and it was ok. Blandest protagonist ever, bland setting, bland everything. But I'm going to keep watching it because it isn't bad. It's like flavourless crisps, but you enjoy how crunchy it is and so you keep eating it anyway.

Nah, she didn't want to lose on purpose, that'd be entirely against the point of putting it all on the line and seeing who comes out ahead. She aimed to win. But now she can make an even harder gamble to get ahead.

I disagree, it's funny and good and the references are there to ground the show, not as jokes themselves. If you didn't laugh when he was poo poo at a fighting game, you have no soul.

Honestly, Smartphone is my favourite bad anime this season. It never ceases to crack me up how exactly it sticks to the tropes, except unlike Konosuba there is no punchline. It's the greatest comedy played totally straight.

If you aren't watching Made in Abyss, Princess Principal, Tsuredure Children and haven't given Guru Guru a shot, you're doing this season wrong. Especially the first two, contenders for best of the year so far.

Wark Say posted:It's been discussed in the chat thread before (I'm probably partially to blame, since I watched a bunch of his videos during the 2 months I spent between jobs) and yeah, general consensus is that the dude's a giant douche-drinker. His stance is more sensible than just patreon, he'd like if there was an option to donate directly to the relevant studios instead of giving more money to the production committees behind it all so that more money reaches the talent. This coupled with the inconvenience of Netflix as they don't simulcast, amazon prime as they usually have fairly frequent delays plus double paywall and low visibility and blurays being much more inconvenient than searching online. Digibro has weird stances on a whole bunch of stuff, and he often poorly explains himself, but at least his ideas and analysis is interesting, and probably the best thing he does is promote a discourse by frequently kicking the hornets nest like this.

I dunno, I think it's cool that he highlights good shows and makes a case for them to be watched by people who may have passed them up because one is "GAMERS, the show for GAMERS" and the other is a 12 minute anime. At least it's better poo poo that most other anime youtube people.
