I just had a nice show get animed. The Maoyu anime was a cute star-crossed lovers story between a demon king and the human hero … then bang polygamy out of nowhere

It doesn’t even make sense to add as fan service, the Female lead is the protagonist while the male is basically a plot device. She’s awesome btw.

I mean ok it’s only implied polygamy but whatever don’t polygamysplain me

Here, have a different version of that story that's better told, better drawn, and makes more sense.

Movie's based more on the novel I think, and reading the manga first made me dislike the movie because it felt like Rita gave up all of her agency in exchange for actually getting to drink that cup of coffee. I mean, sure she got to shoot Tom Cruise a lot, but she was supposed to remember the time loops too and not be completly dependent on his knowing what was going to happen and spend all of the fighting following his orders.

Acerbatus posted:

No and no(t anymore)

Yes and no. A lot of mobage that get global releases hope to hit big numbers but more niche things tend to run into stumbling blocks like a lot of the most die hard fans already playing the jp version. Madoka wasn't really a hot property in the west, which compounded with the way too fast event pacing, the fact it was hard to recommend to people who weren't already deep into Madoka, and so on.

Sales numbers and the like were never released so the specifics are speculative in the end.

Yeah, I gave Madoka a little money to get my favorite character in the start dash, and again during the Nanoha event, but then just fatigued out. There might have been some optimal strategy to having enough time in the day to play both the events and the normal story, but I sure didn't figure it out before I lost the will to keep up.

i watched the first episodes of killing slimes for 300 years, and assault lily bouquet while doing editing work. i didnt like them, and my queue is now shorter. that's my story

300 years of killing slimes hits a weird note of being a tourist isekai about a woman who becomes a NEET for several centuries. The show improves after more of the cast is introduced but there's never anything that can threaten more than the main characters feelings and it's just a light and fluffy series that Dynasty Scans would tag 404Men-not-found.

Okay, it's the year 2002 and the AMV winners are decided by a decibel meter on the crowed. This masterpiece comes on and encourages the audience to boo it at the top of their lungs, and we do. We boo'd it into first place comedy and overall winner. The next year we got paper ballots and pens.

Is Claymore any good? Ive had it on my watch list for a while now but never really feel in the mood for a grim fantasy show. Since I start holidays today I was thinking of knocking a few titles off the list.

I thought the manga was pretty good once I got used to the art style. The pacing was really weird though and sometimes managed to feel rushed and slow at the same time.
