Yeah I don't dislike Fire Force, but it's not really lighting the same spark for me that Soul Eater did.

I think it'd be more enjoyable if they leaned into fighting Infernals more, rather than chasing the conspiracy 100% of the time.

There's not really anything interesting to fighting the infernals. They've already covered the few emotionally relevant parts about them, and pretty well I thought.

This season was the first one which I was actively following so I can't say how good it was but it was pretty enjoyable. I was watching Astra, O Maidens and Vinland (and a few episodes of Fire Force before dropping it) and had a great time. I wonder how next season will turn out

should be equally good, although most of the shows I'm excited about are sequels

i was surprised by the villains mostly being other moms who are terrible and Good Mom has to show them the true way, and it's got some cute funny bits like "Wow, Mom's incredible power Tuck You Into Bed!" or "This thing has a dumb name because Mom had to type in the name and she hunts and pecks when she types because she's older", but like, every episode but they're putting the mom in maid outfits and schoolgirl uniforms in like every episode so...ya know. It started out way hornier and then kinda chilled out a bit, but def not entirely

I wouldn't really recommend it, but I'll say I'm liking it more than I ever expected. Mamako is a very good mom.


this is from when she did a mom spirit bomb

I mean yeah absolutely, RPG Moms sounds like a great show. But in general the son and the other kids are...fine. They have their own bits and I like that the son isn't a total rear end in a top hat and just wants to look cool in front of girls but his mom is the best person ever, but when Mamako isn't on screen, I truly am always asking "where's Mamako?"

Kind of, but that isn't the first term I'd use to describe it. Actually, for all its faults, Symphogear managed to avoid settling into the tropes of any one genre. It's pretty unique!

I'm just now getting into Yaiba (on like episode 7) and in the first episode the demon slayer dude said that demons multiply by blood contact, but now they seem to imply that only the big bad guy demon is capable of creating new demons..kind of confusing.

It feels a bit more down to earth than either. It sorta reminded me more of Nichibros than Asobi Asobase and Grand Blue. But yeah, you should totally watch it.

If its that they are making a Dungeon Meshi anime, another season of Slayers, or a full adaptation of Marry Grave including the stuff that the author had to cut due to early cancellation, then yes you can.

Haven't read the manga but the anime seems to indicate that big boss demon is always able to convert people, but lesser demons have a lot of difficulty doing so. Like it's possible for them to but usually the potential convert just dies.

Yeah, between Arifureta, Isekai Cheat Magician, and Maou-Sama Retry, the quality bar was set real low for isekais this season. Looks like the trend will continue even harder next season. I just hope Overly Cautious Hero turns out good.

Isekai mom show is pretty decent show. Nothing amazing but has some good jokes and the son has definitely become way less of a shithead.

The latest episode had some big cheesecake to for the first time in a while (but it was the result of a good joke so I let it slide) and had the wonderful pun of the other mom’s getting equipped with Mom-or (instead of armour) so it gets a passing grade from me.

I appreciate it when a character acts like a shithead and then goes "oh wow I was kind of an rear end in a top hat I better apologize" without having to Learn A Lesson.

My favorite part of momsekai is when it turns out the healer's repressed true self is being kind of an rear end in a top hat all the time.

lmao at the latest arc of hanmachi having a female lead who was a prostitute and she had a whole arc about her job and reassuring her that she isn't like 'impure' or whatever and then at the very end the other prostitutes went 'also she passes out whenever she sees a man so she actually hasn't had sex yet! bye!'
