i'm gonna recommend everyone watch the first 90 seconds of the imouto show

It's been a while since I've rated a show 1/10, mostly for being a nice guy and being much better able to avoid bad shows.

I have rated this show a 1/10.

Animegataris gets a special pre-emptive "shows without threads" review for taking itself a little too seriously and relying too heavily on referential humor, so it all feels kinda flat, and gets a drop from me. Also if I wanted to read bickering between anime-only watchers and original media snobs I could just read threads in this subforum :v:

Thanks atleast for this

Something just doesn't make sense about the Netflix Tiger&Bunny thing.

If the corporate sponsors paid for the spots, and Netflix edited them out, shouldn't they be pissed?

Or, if Netflix was allowed to edit them out, how the gently caress did they not jump on the opportunity to replace them? Like cut a deal to slap some Mickey D's arches on that poo poo instead of Softbank, and other more "target demographic relevant" sponsors?

Something just doesn't add up here.

Watched the first episode of Blend-S. It kind of creeped me out. Don't think I'll pick this one up.

Nah, it's just her eyes that are scary, she's really a nice girl!


But for real tho, Blend-S more like Bland-S

Fall season early impressions roundup of shows without threads:

Drunk Wife - Cute, but kinda bland.

Code:Realize - I don't even remember the premise, it had that little impact.

Blend-S - I'm probably going to drop this 3 episodes too late, but watching for now. Also, this meme
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Jp3UjNNpSU

TWOCAR - There has to be a name for what this is, because it isn't CGDCT, and it's not the first to do it. I'll call it: Cute Girls Showcasing A Thing Inexplicably, so CGSATI. It appears I'm not fond of CGSATI shows. Anyways, as if the world needed a Bakuon clone, but here we are.

Just Because - Pine Jam is doing ok so far, but man I wish this show were made by KyoAni. Can't wait to see the wheels fall off.

My Girlfriend is Shobitch - gently caress you.

Shokugeki no Souma 3 - It's more Shokugeki no Souma. There are less food orgasms this time around, but I feel like I'm about to eat those words.

A Sister is All You Need - gently caress YOOOOUUU.

Apparently if you survive more than seven seconds into this show it goes to absolutely insane places before revealing itself to be the main character's draft of an anime or something. The show is probably still trash, but I kind of respect the... willingness to make people run away screaming?

I watched the entire first episode. I am additionally disgusted by the rest of it, and the simple projection of what the show is doing and what it wants to be.

If anyone is curious and/or is still watching the show, this week (ep 05) is when Just Because starts unraveling at the seams as foretold by those earlier reports of production woes.

I hope someone gifs it

A few notes:

- These are cherry-picked examples, but not in the malicious way of making a joke at the expense of the animators. There are just too many scenes to choose from.
- None of the screenshots are in-betweeners. These are all lingering shots.
- All of these had the main characters moving at 8fps, I didn't cut/reduce the framerate when gifing them.
- The hands :gonk: oh god the hands, I remember now why I don't make as many anime gifs as I used to


As you keep watching this on loop, it just gets sadder and sadder the more you notice.


















Clapping loops on the right were 12 fps, left animation was 8 fps


It's just a still shot of food, how can you make it look so unappetizing?!?!


By episode 07 I expect a response to this request would be to just link a webm of the entire episode.

The sad part is, the show is good in many other ways. The dialogue and story move at a nice non-lingering pace, the shot composition is fantastic, the characters are interesting and likeable even through their teenage brooding, nothing wrong with the sound or music or voice acting. They just bit off more than they could chew, and I sympathize with them.

I'd be down for this because it sucks being spoiled by discussion on shows I'd potentially watch, which happens far more often than people marketing/convincing others to watch a show.

Well Just Because ended, not too much notable other than the audio black hole used in the very last post credits scene which was done pretty well, but overall I think anime (i.e. not KyoAni) was the wrong medium for this show.
