Manga is in fact superior to anime, a medium primarily for children.

indeed. for example, in anime, there are dozens of romcoms with dense male leads. in manga, there are hundreds

In anime and manga, the main character can be oblivious to the world around them, but in gaming you, personally, can be oblivious and have hundreds of internet strangers yell at you and call you blind, and I think that's beautiful.

It was a lazy Sunday evening for the wife and I, and as I was perusing the anime section on Netflix I found the bunny girl senpai anime. The little trailer they played for it, which is just like a minute or two from the first episode, had us bewildered enough to give it a shot.

All in all we've watched 4 episodes and we're both shocked it snagged us. The title didn't really do it favors for us, but the show seems enjoyable enough. Looking around I see there's a movie that came out--anyone familiar with the series that can tell me if the movie is worth it?

it's a direct continuation of the adaptation, so if you liked the show, you're pretty likely to enjoy the movie too.

it's an 80s tomino/nagano mecha anime that sort of has a serious universe but it's from a wacky part of tomino's 80s directorial cycle so 95% of it is comedy with lots of extremely energetic slapstick

There's three manga series that I would love to see get competent anime adaptations in the near future:

Skip and Loafer is a wholesome and understated comedy / SOL / romcom that has very endearing characters and some charming art. 9.5/10 please read. I really wish the missing chapters had translations on mdex.

Blue Period is a wonderfully drawn coming of age story about a delinquent finding his love of art and self-expression, and the side characters are really the star of the show. I can't wait to see where it goes. This series would need a really competent character designer to showcase the mangaka's characters and intent, but it could be fantastic as an animated series.

Sengoku Komachi Kuroutan: Noukou Giga, which is one of the few isekai series I've read that don't feel completely derivative and uninteresting. Modern Japanese Highschool girl gets ported back to Nobunaga-era Japan. Of course she leverages her knowledge to great effect, but still has to deal with the social and physical realities of that time period. It's a fun read, and would make a great series I think! It also serves as a nice Japanese history lesson.

Thanks for this. I just read through all that exists of Sengoku Komachi Kuroutan in one sitting. I'll have to check out the other two also.

Skip and Loafer's been licensed by Seven Seas so we should get those missing chapters again sooner or later

My pleasure, it was one of those things that I clicked randomly on mangadex many months ago and ended up following, among dozens of random clicks that I didn't even bother to read a second chapter of.
