Somehow overlooked that Misfit of Demon Academy had its S2 this round.

Nagatoro, Bofuri, Anos. A good season for light fun stuff.

I loving love Anos and the entire show is the best kind of isekai-returner-OP bullshit at every turn. He's just such a complete rear end in a top hat it's hilarious to see where poo poo goes.

Misfit is extremely dumb but extremely great. I’ve not tired of Anos constantly going “you’ve fallen for my trap card” so far.
S1 was full of this stuff and it was great. Like I think he murders a dude in cold blood during a tournament and then resurrects him like "Yeah as long as you're not dead for 10 seconds I can bring you back cool huh".

And then he fucks with him by murdering him a dozen more times.

This is an amazing bit of work for TV.

Vash, The Humanoid Typhon, should move like a Looney Tunes cartoon because we know his goofy poo poo is calculated to an extent. I think this sold me on the series.

I think Smartphone was one of the early Isekai I watched and doesn't the season end with "oh and now I have a harem I guess and also a 16 year old AI guardian to paradise is my wife"?

I'd rather another season of Otome Mob character

Bofuri S2 didn't leave a good first episode impression, it was so lethargic
I mean, it gives good characterization to the opponent guild boss, everyone gets a cute little adventure montage, and it puts a few folks in a fun situation wrt the Christmas raid.

Yeah, it's definitely got a feel like a Christmas OVA but it also seems to have kept the relatively low-key MMO Slice of Life vibe that the first season had. Which is very welcome.

Caught up with Misfit and can I say I'm kind of sick of the Demon Lord having to overthrow God / fight The Church / protect The Chosen Child when S2s come around like c'mon man.

Considering the vast internal cultural differences between the various subforums (especially poo poo like FYAD/GBS and others), I'd say this is not even close to a given.
Yeah, if we're going banish shows to the shadow realm then we probably should have a sticky list or some kind of disclaimer in the season thread. Or at least a public We Don't Talk About That for the post?

Malsangoroth posted:

How many of these covid shutdowns are actually the production collapsing in a neutron fit of mismanaged schedules, and all higher-ups involved looking to pin the blame on anything else? See: Isekai Ojisan.
I'm imagining theres a good overlap. We know all the studios are overworked and taking on more work as we speak. Losing 2-6 people for a week+ can easily throw poo poo out of whack.

No, Not really.
I think those weird large cast shows kind of dilute the characters so they just become pretty paper thin. Like the Anos Fan Club in Misfit of Demon Academy don't really get any individual characterization besides "The tall one. The one with the eye patch" etc.

Kind of a weird assumption tbh.

I've completely lost the plot in Misfit of Demon King Academy. It feels like they're just flipping out betrayals and what not out of no where with absolutely no build up whatsoever.
Pretty similar to S1, except there most of the enemies were related to Anos' prior life.

They're definitely setting up some poo poo about mysterious hooded girl being the Forest Spirit who locked away her memories after she fell in love with that one bodyguard dude that Anos' assigned to her and who probably died fighting that Anosu kid or whatever. maybe it'll be a big swerve or something.

I think Jun is well aware of what he wants but is just too afraid or in denial to do anything about it.
There's quite a few scenes in the first handful of episodes where dude is like "Hey you're like my best friend so..."

The moment when it dawns on him is going to be spectacular.

In particular the episode where you find out Jun and Misizu dated is a huge spotlight on him pursuing someone totally the opposite of Tomo and just being bored as a result.
