my favorite part of gamers is how the entire first half of the first episode is the show snickering and saying "HEY, GET READY, THIS CHARACTER GETS TOOOOTALLY SCREWED"

is it even possible to judge a sequel as terrible when every episode is going to be 1 1/2 minutes of nothing

i can't even tell if it's actually bad because there's so little to see

I looked this up expecting to see something from the mid-00s, but it aired last year?! I'm sensing red flags here...

it's just a short anime about a gyaru hanging out with her friends. it's pretty good and the manga has nice art

i'm extremely angry mitsuboshi is being made by the exact same staff as nichijou and came from a portal to another dimension to steal nichijou season 2's place in our world, ensuring a second season of nichijou will never exist entirely because of mitsuboshi colors

ep 1 of princess principal is basically just to set the tone, rather than actually being a very good introduction to the central cast like episode 2 and 3

How many im@ses have crushes on the producer, and is that okay?

i don't remember if any of them did but the producer is cool in cg cause he's just an awkward but sweet dude who wants people to be able to be happy with their jobs and nobody's development really gravitates entirely around him outside of his own interactions with the rest of the cast, where he constantly fumbles because he's bad at talking to people and it's an actual thing he has to improve at

netflix is getting lots of good shows but gently caress they're terrible at the whole actually releasing them fast enough for anyone to care to watch them part

lwa's been finished for a while and the only announcement about getting the second half is this month, and it's from netflix france

Netflix US released a video of their entire August release slate, and LWA was nowhere to be found, so unless it's a surprise...

frankly if netflix doesn't release it soon i will never forgive them for depriving people of my favorite show of the year for another month

i'm gonna say the discourse digibro leads to is anything but interesting or insightful and in fact does very little to educate people on anything about the industry or studios or the actual problems with how creators are paid

i watched his old video about pacing in anime and while i totally disagreed with what he said about kekkai sensen it wasn't a bad video but it sounds like more recently he's gotten really lovely and basically all i ever hear from people in relation to his videos is complete poo poo

Who needs youtubers to tell them anythign about anime

well it's cool when a guy can actually tell you how studios work and also explain the background and history of notable animators who get zero attention from the general public

it's dumb when it's just a guy making a several hour long video series on why sword art online is bad

Was Blood Block Battle good or did people just lose their minds over the ED?

it's the best anime of 2015

i dunno if the new season will be as good cause the director of season 1 just had a loving amazing sense for visual flair and timing and pacing and she's not returning for this one, but the later stuff in the manga is supposed to be really good so it will probably still be good

If I want to dip my toes in the idol thing in preparation for the season of idols where should I start?

The only thing I've seen remotely along those lines is Symphogear.

idolm@ster: cinderella girls, locodol or love live: sunshine

og love live is ok but it's full of pretty limp drama and i don't think it really goes for anything to make it as especially fun or interesting
