I've never watched this show , but a lot of my friends have watched it , and they said they liked it very much and it was such a great show . It does seems like a lot of people like it .

I loved seasons 1 & 2. Season 3 had some awesomeness, but parts were underwhelming IMO. The current season just can’t seem to get rolling.

Of course if you don’t like shonen, the points moot

And don't even get me started on Aoyama, what even was that  Maybe it's just me, but I kinda didn't get it.

I think the whole thing about cheese was supposed to be a stereotypical joke about him being part French (actually his whole character seems that way). It seemed like they were trying to make him more tragic by revealing that his quirk actually damages his body & he has to wear that belt at all times, but the other aspects are just so goofy it had no impact (for me anyway)

To @Seshi

And to the AF community as a whole: Thank you for giving me a place to share, rant, ramble & just weird out with others who love anime, which is something I lack IRL. Happy Valentines Day. 

please excuse the duplicated content. Apparently I screwed up the the spoiler tag & can’t fix it

A couple days early, but Iseakai Quartet decided to give viewers a Valentines Day episode

Wonder if they’ll do a follow-up on White Day?

The sun just came out, but not sure how long it will last. Only supposed to be in the low 40s (F), but I’m stuck behind a desk anyway.

The conclusion to the confrontation with the kids was ok but not really great. And it’s not that easy to make Endeavor look like a sympathetic character given that he was physically abusive to his family.

The second half with bellybutton laser guy just felt awkward/creepy instead of funny. Even the empathy he’s supposed to feel with Deku really didn’t really come across.

My whole problem with season 4 is it doesn’t seem able to maintain any momentum. Just when it looks like things are getting good, it just sputters out. Still hoping something awesome will happen, but not really able to feel hyped anymore.

Mermaid Forest & Mermaid Scar are by the same creator as Inuyasha, but are darker & more violent, so a possibility.

Episode 7 - A drinking game where you have to recite prime numbers ... I’d have trouble with that while sober Also funny seeing what kind of drunk the various characters are. 2nd half was Himuro offering retellings of different fairytales with herself & Yukimura as the romantic leads.  @efaardvark Think you’ll appreciate her conclusion to Princess Kaguya .

@Anime loveer You might like Bofuri or Asteroid in Love. Both are cute & light hearted.
 And there’s Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken which is a dramedy about HS girls wanting to be animators

Honestly at this point I prefer Hugo & Cyco to Rook & Babi.

I’m still working on my Valentine’s Day event entries, but thought I’d share this

I was puzzled as well but someone on CR’s forums pointed out that

Very busy episode this week as the supernatural battle is over in the first half, but many indirect challenges are introduced

Manaria Friends.. shortend-form (10x15min eps) iyashikei.  Cute, simple.  Not exciting or fancy like the others in the Shingenki no Bahamut ilk, but that's how these things are supposed to be.

Have to admit I rather liked Grea’s character design

Maple continues to come up with “innovative” ways to exploit the game’s play mechanics (no wonder the developers are annoyed by her)

Caught me completely by surprise 

Welcome to the forums, hope you enjoy it here 

Since you like cats I would highly recommend My Roommate is a Cat

@Seshi It gets much worse in season 3. The longer he remains trapped in the game, the more of his “humanity” he loses. Fans point to this dark aspect as to what sets it apart from other isekai, but it can make it hard to watch at times. I’m not entirely sure I could make it through a season 4 if one gets made the way things are progressing. Not to discourage anyone, but just a heads up on the direction it takes.

Lots of twists & turns before getting to the real truth behind the legend/rumor, making it more complex than a lot of other series. 
Hanako is the biggest mystery of all. While he’s clearly not the dangerous evil exorcist boy accuses him of being, there’s definitely something dark in his backstory

Was expecting this week to be a single ep with the emphasis on comedy. While there was still plenty of that (favorite was the girls hating on Camie for being a sl** & even turning against Todoroki because they don’t want to grow up to be “that kind of woman”  ). But was surprised by Endeavor actually asking Allmight for advice since he’s now officially the #1 hero, but the public isn’t inspired or put at ease by him. This is also reflected by how both Todoroki & the whirlwind guy are determined to NOT follow his example. And the students must figure out a way to get the kids’ under control next week (overpowering them will just make them look like bullies & cause resentment but letting them get away with it will just make them more rebellious & disrespectful).

For me:

Funniest moment so far

Most romantic moment so far

Next week is supposed to introduce the effects of alcohol into the equation ... can’t wait
