Recovery of an MMO Junkie/Recommendation of the Virtual World had a pretty good first episode. There were a few wierd pacing moments in how it skipped ahead. And the virtual world is super-generic but I guess that's kinda the point.

Where does the protagonist fall in the spectrum of had just given up/lost generation" vs "is actually just a terrible and incompetent person"? I assume it is at least more positive than Watamote.

Not much has happened so far, but feels much more like the former.

Really? A rough image search brings up these team action shots of what appears to be about ten women and one big guy. I mean I can get down with that if the show is good enough and it's not just for the boys at home to play "find your type". The only reason I brought up gender ratio is because I usually avoid a show if it looks like it has a cast intended for gently caress/Marry/Kill.

I don't see why having fewer female characters prevents this.

There's not really anything wrong with that given the industry. Shokugeki no Souma's artist also used to do hentai manga and it's pretty much on par with other series in Jump

There's aspects of the 2003 anime I preferred to Brotherhood. I liked their treatment of Lust, I liked that the bad guy's final comeuppance isn't 'being beaten in a fight', I liked Pride vs Mustang.

Yeah but if you're going to go with fights with huge emotional gravitas re: Mustang, nothing comes close to Mustang vs. Envy in FMA manga/Brotherhood.

I also think manga Pride is orders of magnitude cooler in both character and concept than the sad sack that is 2003 Wrath.

E: Hell if we're going to do 2003 Pride vs. manga/Brotherhood Wrath, the latter's role in the endgame is an insane series of :stare: & :zoro:

Sure, sure, I don't dispute that Brotherhood brought the cool fights. I just liked the 2003 anime's angle - that ultimately the bad guys are objectively stronger than the good guys, but they are in the end defeated by their failure to understand humanity. Pride failing to understand the love of his 'son', Dante failing to understand Gluttony's love for Lust, etc etc. This I thought was in the end more effectively and subtly done than how Father was finally defeated, and having the Voice of God dictate the theme of the series to him.

Does this just apply to Crunchyroll’s German site, or is it worldwide? Probably best to avoid either way though. I wonder if it effects their apps as well. Been a while since I’ve been to their actual website.

It's kinda dumb that the entire Saber arc across two series hinges on no one telling her 'hey, it turned out alright in the end, erasing yourself from existence would probably have made things worse'.

The one episode of old Captain Tsubasa I watched was a lot of fun, so if the remake does a more condensed version of the story, with better animation (i.e. a Guru guru) then I'm very much in favour. I'm sorry YggdrasilTM finds multi-player team-up bicycle kicks 'boring'.
