March Lion S2, which hopefully will cover the arcs I think it will. If so it will be one of the best shows in years. Osomatsu 2. Not much but still two more than the last two seasons combined.

Oh and though I don't know if I'll watch it I'm sure Ancient Magus Bride will be great, I'm just so much more invested in the current manga arc to want to start over w/ an anime.

I mean Railgun is far from perfect, but as far as a silly X-Men-like romp with anime girls goes it's fun enough. By focusing on a much smaller cast it's also able to actually let some characterization room to breath, compared to Index which has a billion characters who often get forgotten for seasons and books on end. And more importantly it doesn't (usually) feature the most boring MC imaginable in Touma.

Working had some rough spots with how it introduced and developed some characters at the start, but all of them more or less were able to grow (not Poplar though, of course) to an extent that even if they still owned their gimmicks they had enough else going for them that it still worked. In the end it was a cute/charming story with a lot of good relationship/growth where it was warranted.

The pacing and scene-to-scene composition in Konohana Kitan is really weird. In terms of individual segments/parts it's executed well enough, but so far I've ended every episode somewhat  despite ostensibly enjoying the story/characters as presented thus far. It feels rushed in the same sort of way Angel Beats did.I came very close to dropping MMO Junkies in the middle of the second episode but I'm glad I didn't, it seems very promising at the moment. Kind of reminds me of Densha Otoko.

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  &

Fangz posted: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. and alienating. In a sense it felt like Bones was reaching for narrative heights that they did not have the actual talent to achieve. Arakawa's take is arguably more simplistic, but there is so much more heart & soul to that cast of villains and I never came to doubt or roll my eyes at their arcs in a similar fashion.

The PV for Hakumei & Mikochi that came out a while back looked insanely good, seriously check that show out because the manga is great and they've really nailed the look. Conversely while I am excited for Yurucamp I can't help but feel the teaser we saw for it made it look like it lost a lot of the art appeal in its transition to anime.

I really wish I could get into Kotohana, it has at face value a lot of elements that I usually love in a SOL show but somehow the sum of its parts always leaves me thinking each episode was poorly storyboarded or put together and leaves me vaguely disappointed. I guess broadly speaking it just feels sort of badly paced; it kind of gives me the same feeling when Angel Beats would just suddenly shift gears and rush through some beats.

The biggest lament I have with YYH is that the Sensui arc is top to bottom so loving good but ends really terribly and the arc that follows it to close out the series is just kind of OK.

The good start to this year with Rakugo/March Lion S1/ACCA has still not been topped. Probably leaning towards Rakugo though March Lion S2 is going to be up there with it.

Wark Say posted:I wanted to like MarchLion, but I'm not ready for a feels train. It's like the biggest goddamn feels train, isn't it? It absolutely touches on some pretty heavy subjects and S2 in particular is knee deep in an absolute swamp of a plotline that is sure to leave viewers with a combination of grief and fury. But that said it does know how to pace itself on this matters and Chica Umino knows how to weave comedic moments in and out.

The first season of March Lion is about getting to know Rei, especially at his lowest point(s), only to have him slowly built back up piece by piece by a lot of folks but obviously mostly the Kawamoto family. And now they in turn are in desperate need of his strength, which makes his character growth all the more meaningful when he (hopefully) is able to come through for them in whatever ways he can. It's such a simple way to progress the story but it works so well and provides an emotional catharsis that I can't say I've seen in many other works.

Oooh, OK. I mean yeah I can see that being a bit of a weird shift all told. March Lion has always liked giving its ancillary characters their own solid arcs and I think it does a good job of developing that world. Regardless I would not sit on S2 if you were holding off on it from how S1 ended, at the very least.

Kytrarewn posted:I've finally started playing f/sn, and I like it, but I always get annoyed when I put several hours into a game only for it to turn out to just be the prologue, with "new game/load/extra" some time thereafter. If you just mean FSN proper, then yes you'll have to replay the start (super quick with already read text getting skipped) to experience the other routes, but it diverges very early and goes full on into brand new content. There is nothing that unlocks after fully beating the game other than a weird epilogue thing. If you mean all of the offshots like Fate/Apocrypha, Fate/Extra, Fate/Zero, whatever, then those are completely separate works with varying levels of connections to the original but by and large can be enjoyed on their own.
