I was super hype for Juuni Taisen (Nisio Isin!! Future Diary guy!!), and while it had all the EDGE I was looking for it hasn't done anything cool enough yet to really grab me. I'm still into it tho.

I dunno if I'll end up watching much of Urahara but I really like how it looks, and the characters seem sweet

It has such a simple, breezy premise yet it feels weirdly plodding. I hope the show eventually finds its grove cause I really want to like it.

I originally saw that as genre and not groove. Both seem accurate.

It's supposed to be a silly magical girl thing but the tone was wildly off lol.

So many cool designs tho. The fried shrimp mascot was brilliant.

There's a surprise Natsume's Book of Friends episode our today and it's a good one. It's some kind of OVA thing and there's a second one coming soon! Praise Natsume.

Land of the Lustrous rules. I was expecting just melancholy action stuff, but the script was pretty spunky to offset all that and it worked. And yea the action was cool.

Juuni Taisen rules a lot.

Ep 2 spoilers I hope they don't keep being quite as predictable with who's gonna get axed, I was honestly hoping Episode 2 would end with no new deaths. I also hope the viewpoint character doesn't keep biting it in the end.

I'm pretty sure it's going to keep happening, and then something will break the pattern and it'll be awesome. I'm really liked this episode even though it was predictable. I love the thing they do where one person keeps thinking while the other is talking, and the person thinking is always making some huge mistake.

If I'm not mistaken, for some reason the OVA with the real ending to season 1 was never licensed in the US at all. Really incomprehensible situation if so.

Yea it sucks. Definitely pirate that the real ending owns.

I think part of the change is that the licensors are getting involved earlier and earlier in the process so they can request these things before they're even made. In the past they would have to negotiate with the home video companies for OVAs and very rarely could they get a good deal.

The Lost Village has some of my legit favorite episodes of anything ever but after the halfway point it overexplains itself and fuzzes out. I will always treasure the opening scene where they pass the microphone around the bus, though.

blend s has been more appealing because the characters have a bit more going on initially.

Did you watch Blend S? This is not the case. It's about as simple and cliche as anime gets.

There's billions of possible reasons why Netflix scrubbed Tiger and Bunny, it's possible that the agreements had just expired, it's a six year old show.

Do they even make Pepsi NEX anymore?

it's just moving very slowly and adding some filler here and there. that and there's a rumour going around it's scheduled to run for a full year, which generally means a lower quality show visually.

It's not some filler here and there, we're three episodes in and the only episode that covers manga material is the first one. They're trying to stretch things out, without pulling what One Piece does where they take three episodes to cover a chapter.

The filler is super pointless and feels kinda desperate, it keeps going on unexpected tangents just to fill up time. But they kinda pull it all together?

If all goes well it's gonna be a bunch of weird bullshit interrupted by a legit good episode so I'm in.

You can confidently drop black clover, it's mostly okay at best and will probably run for a long time so you can catch up later if you want.

I know exactly what I'm getting into with Black Clover. I want this.

(I'll probably end up dropping it anyway lol)

i would drop side m before black clover tbh

I like the pretty boys in side m and I haven't watched iM@S before so I'm kinda just discovering what that series is like. It's super boring but I like it.

Tho is it really watching an anime if you're on your phone for the whole episode? Philosophers are still debating.
