so doga kobo's continuing with their pedophile show streak, huh.

Yes and No. Despite the suggestive description, the actual content of the show, if what people who read the manga had to say is anything to go by, isn't sexual, and there isn't a literal pedophile character like their last 2 outings. With that said, the premise is still totally catered to a pedophile's fantasies though.

I'm intrigued by the isekai where you come back as a baby and get raised by an idiot magician. That's so dumb it might be great.

Yeah, Kenja no Mago honestly looks alright for your standard isekai setup-there's some good character design, comedy, and action in the pv even!


Oh god that was a terrible page snipe-

I skipped out on the past few seasons but I'm real excited to get back into the current anime game this upcoming season. Mix is gonna be one of the best anime this year and I'll happily be one of the hundred or so people in the English-speaking world that watches it. And hey, more Attack on Titan. As one of the few fans who hasn't read the manga I'm hyped for more. I have high hopes for Carole & Tuesday but since it's Netflix I'll probably just wait for it to be available there. And of course a new Ikuhara show, always gonna see what he's up to. The new Ace of the Diamond series should be good but since I binged the original series last year I think watching it weekly will kill me so I'll just wait for episodes to accumulate before checking it out. I think there's also yet another attempt at a Phoenix anime happening? I'd love for it to be good but I feel like a lot of recent Tezuka attempts have been lacking. I guess at least it's not another Tezuka prequel that nobody wants, so that's something.

i'm gonna watch attack on titan and one punch man, and nothing else really leapt out at me. i guess bungo stray dogs is a thing people like now? i remember checking out the first season of it and not being crazy about it, but maybe i'll go back and give it another shot.

in doublechecking the list i noticed "Kimetsu no Yaiba" which seems like it could be up my alley, though that wasn't the most interesting pv i've ever seen

The Bocchi manga is extremely good, easily the best one that author has done, but as Three Colors has shown it's very possible for an :effort: adaption to kill whatever life the author's works have. So hopefully that's better this time around.

I don't necessarily have a lot of faith in another go at a Fruits Basket adaption based on the PV released thus far, but I have enough nostalgia for that story that I still want to see how they do it. It'd be neat to go back to that setting one more time.

Oh wait Senryuu?? Surprised I didn't hear about that earlier, that manga rules. Too bad it's a short though, it definitely looks fairly cheap.

Nothing else really jumps out at me, I'll have to leave it to ADTRW to sift through the res- wait, is that a YU-NO adaption I see? :stare: :yikes:

Yeah, there's a promotional anime that's supposed to air in April

quote:

Tezuka Production will create an original anime based on Osamu Tezuka's manga "Phoenix". As part of a collaboration campaign with Ehime Prefecture named "Dogo Reborn Project" to promote the restoration and repair of the Dogo Onsen hot spring bat house in Matsuyama.

But, uh, there's like no information available at the moment besides the name and "April", no PV, no staff, no length.

I guess I could put it in the Chii-tan collumn...

I've read a bit of the manga and it's mostly innocuous, the weirdest textual thing is that the guy wants to
>touch fluffy tail
and the foxes think that's weird. The main problematic thing really is that it's a very explicit indulgent manbaby fantasy, but the author himself says as much in the first volume, so.

No one watch this. No one should ever watch this. No matter how good it sounds, no matter how good it looks, it will give you at least one giant gently caress you.

Yeah I have no idea what YU-NO is, when I was browsing the season list I'd discarded the show as some sort of harem-looking thing to begin with but the plot description sounds innocuous enough so if it needs some kind of content warning let people know.

Don't forget that it's strongly implied that one of the other girls he can gently caress is another/different daughter sent back in time from the future.

Personally the reactions to Fuuka were hilarious because the people who went into the show blind were basically going "well that was a pleasant ending, I don't know why you guys were riled up.", and the people who read it that were expecting a metaphorical trainwreck and were waiting all season for the reactions had to stew in their own frustration at the lack of catharsis

I rewatched it a few weeks ago and I think it benefits more from not been watched week to week, because it starts pretty slow. The first season is mostly one-offs and the first arc/plot doesn’t start until like episode 9, which continues through season 2.

MAPPA; Lapin Track | Kunihiko Ikuhara | Kunihiko Ikuhara | Demons, Supernatural | Original | Apr 12, 2019
The stage is Asakusa. One day, three 2nd-year middle school students — Kazuki Yasaka, Tooi Kuji, and Enta Jinnai — meet a mysterious kappa-like creature named Keppi, who forcibly takes their shirikodama (a mythical organ kappa steal through a person's anus) and transforms the boys into kappa. Keppi informs them, "If you wish to return to your former selves, you must connect in 'that way' and bring me the shirikodama of zombies." Will the three boys be able to connect as they steal shirikodama from zombies?! Meanwhile, two policemen — Reo Niiboshi and Mabu Akutsu — are up to something at the police box where they are stationed.

The problem is aside from that bit, most of which comes toward the end, it's really good and super well-written. It just decides that it has to gently caress that one goat...

Who decided that a disgusting two decade old game needed an anime adaptation anyway? I'd love to have been a fly on the wall at that meeting.

Mind you, after the last two Dogakobo shows maybe this poo poo is just normal in the anime industry now.
