>>42832Rewatching Evangelion. The last time I watched it I was 14 and I can't appreciate it, So far the show is good.
I'm planning to watch end of Eva on December 31.
I'm also watching negative positive Angler.

Finished watching Mother of Goddess Dormitory.
Rather basic Ecchi except for the fact that it was a shota 12 year old being surrounded by collage aged babes, which made it slightly novel.
While the plot is nothing to write home about, the art and character design is nice.
If simplistic ecchi anime is your comfort food like it is for me then it's a ok watch.
If you are expecting more though, like a decent plot of tons of meaningful character development then give this show a pass.

succubus sees horrifying ghost
succubus tries very hard to ignore horrifying ghost
The horrifying ghost make it incressingly difficult to ignore them
That's basically the show.
Wasn't great but wasn't bad. 13 eps seems like just the right amount, enough to explore the premises but didn't stick around long enough to get overly dull and predictable.

Cautious Hero: The Hero Is Overpowered but Overly Cautious
It was ok, but the humor didn't match my own so the vast majority of jokes fell flat for me.
Also the characters were all kinda shit and super annoying intentionally.

I finished shiki, I have mixed feeling about it. I wants to know what happens to the people after the ending but alas we'll 'ever know
No.42966
>>42965Am I the only one who found this to be a really heavy-handed metaphor for the problem of young people leaving rural towns for big cities? I didn't finish it because I was too distracted by it. I only watched a few episodes so maybe I'm wrong but I thought that's where the author was going with it.

>>43055It's pretty sad. Basically, the pink hair guy was controlling, influencing, and orchestrating everything, the whole thing is just the product of his whims as a bored superhuman, and he'd nudge the Takakura family twice: one time into terrorism ( which wouldn't actually realize the dad's ambition, if you think about it ) and another time into recreating the same terrorist scenario with the brothers ( the son of that dad he manipulated, to make it worse ) to see if the outcome would be the same i.e 'does fate really exist?'
The ending themes in Penguindrum were really, really cool by the way, even better than rock over Japan.
P.S it's probably okay to go without spoilers, since I think everyone watched this show 10+ years ago lol
This show was genuine fun. I recommend Hozuki no reitetsu for similar fun.
Anime should be fun.

Watching Inuyasha blind. It's a big departure genre-wise from UY or Ranma. It kind of feels like a Touhou anime based on the setting and premise. The protagonist is rather like Sanae. The credits theme even sounds like a track from PCB or at least it does to my ears. Not sure why it gets discussed so infrequently.
No.43127
>>43075It's a older show with a lot of cringy moments when someone who watched it in their teens reflect on it in hindsight, and a especially cringe fan-base back in the day. So that is probably the main reason it isn't talked too much about these days.
Also most of it was pretty mid if I am totally honest, with way too much dragging things out, as most shows of the genera have.
That said it did have a vibe about it that makes me extremely nostalgic.

Very low effort trend chasing show of no substance or originality.
It wasn't technically bad, but it was clear no one was trying in any way shape or form. Utterly forgettable. I don't recommend.

Skeleton Knight in Another World
Exactly the kind of Hero I can get behind and enjoy the most in these sort of fantasy isekai shows. Overall style and substance was decent too. Didn't even mind the 3dcgi too much, even if it did still stick out. They were at least trying, and they didn't use it to cheat the actual action scenes but rather I think it was just used to speed up animating stuff that wasn't super important.
Loved the OP theme and sequence too. ED was pretty lame so skipped it though.
Mostly though it was refreshing to have a hero with decent moral values and put their OP nature to good use without being saccharine, bland, or flat.
There are more then a few isekai who handwave the hero just instantly accepting slavery, often taking slaves themselves and this is supposed to be seen as fine because he is such a nice guy and thus his slaves fall in love with him n shit. Doesn't matter how OP they are, or how many connections and how influencial they become, they never even remotely chalenge slavery at all.
Not in this show. Dude sees Elves being captured and enslaved he cleaves through the slavers and rescues the captives.
Oh, but there are magical slave collars n shit. Seen that trope before, surely that means the hero will…
Nope, he dispels that shit with ease.
It's refreshing.
Sometimes I just want a unambiguously good guy kicking the ever-living shit out of bad guys. This show delivers that.
While satisfied with the 12 eps it got, I do kinda hope it gets a second season because I have zero intention of reading the LN.

I agree.
I do like up until the frieza saga which is where it was meant to end originally.
I know in japan there is no distinction between dragonball and z.
the original series is just more comfy to me.

I stopped being as active ages ago but I stop by now and then to see how all the wizzies are doing. It's definitely odd seeing how some parts of the board culture has changed.
I think a lot about when we got /jp/ made and the anime nights we used to have here that I'd watch while working my night shifts. It's been so long at this point that I forget the handle of the guy that used to organize them, but he always put so much work and effort into making the whole experience fun and smooth.
I've become the person in my friend group that organizes similar anime days, and he comes up in my mind basically every week.
No.43192
>>43190nah.
power level creep ruins the series as Z goes on until everything feels pointless.
Frieza is already at a level where he can destroy entire planets singlehandedly, its harder to get much more powerful than that.

I found it boring, badly paced, and the animation quality poor.

I do not recommended.

>>43263Long titled RPG-themed fantasy / isekai franchises with such long names are usually too full of irony and "game mechanic" themes. Can't expect much from them. One can even wonder how much of the Japanese youth are familiar with JRPGs to even identify what's mocking or inspired by RPG elements.

>>43189>>43233>The board has never had that many actual 30+ wizards on it? It's always mostly been apprentices, and there were more underages browsing it back then.I think there were even more underage users back then than now (at least before the 4chan refugees came). However there was a subgroup of higher quality chadwizards that were actually interested in disregarding succubi and pursuing their hobbies. Of course those types get bored of the site and leave eventually because there are not many like them to engage with each other among the constant flood of posts about sex and succubi
No.43277
>>43265>too full of ironyThat one played it straight. I don't have a issue with if they do it ironically or play it totally straight, it's about doing it well and telling a interesting story.
Like I loved KonoSuba (aka KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World!) because it was well done, high effort, and mostly due to it being hilarious. But a lot of shows feel very low effort, badly done, and can't hit whatever feeling they aim to invoke. While this isn't a exclusively recent problem, because more shows then ever come out each season and each year for the past few years compared to last decade, even more low effort low quality slop is produced as a consequence.
Speaking of slop, I am also super annoyed that a lot of sites I use for watching anime are getting utterly flooded by cheap nonsensical Chinese slop. It makes searching by genera to find a show to watch irritating.
