Episode 7
wound up watching the subtitled version since the dub wasn’t up. Hoping it’s just delayed instead of discontinued. Not a huge deal but it was one of the rare ones where I prefer the dub and it might be an obstacle for others.

Sorry for being late. Hope you & your little one are enjoying your day.

Personally Spongebob felt like an attempt to imitate/pay homage to the slapstick cartoons I grew up watching. Adventure Time felt like a pioneer of the random is supposed to equal funny philosophy. Then they tried to attach some sort of continuity/mythos to it with mixed results IMO. Plus it got way too bogged down in trying to be metaphysical. Series like Regular Show & OK KO basically followed the same pattern. I think Steven Universe managed to do a better job at eventually forming a coherent story, but still inferior to your average anime.

Watched the first 3 episodes of Cannon Busters on Netflix. I believe the series creator is American, but everything else is Japanese & MAL apparently classifying it as anime. Picking up on influences from Trigun, Cowboy Bebop, Gun x Sword & Space Dandy. Definitely an improvement over Neo Yokio

After ending on an emotional highpoint last week, this week was a wake up call to cold reality. Though as Seshi said it’s better this way because they’re taking the story too seriously to allow Tanjiro to beat a major baddie at this early stage of his training.
They also continue the pattern of offering some insight into the demons’ motivations which keeps them from being just generic villains. Though this was the first time I didn’t feel the slightest sympathy. Rui’s motives just seemed selfish and he was way too sadistic towards the female members of his “family”. I couldn’t really feel compassion for his “sister” either after seeing her betrayal. The argument being she was just doing what she felt was necessary to survive, but still couldn’t feel sorry for her.
Seshi’s new favorite is more than a little scary
When she opened the cocoon I half expected it to be “Oops, guess I took too long ... oh well, la la la”
Though as a high ranking demon slayer she probably knew she had time and figured he would be safer in there where the demon couldn’t use him as a hostage

Could it be Big Fish & Begonia?

At least it wasn’t a 1 ep like the rookie fire games in fire force
What were they doing
The actual wargame was one ep, the previous three just being set up for it. But yeah, FF’s potential remains largely untapped IMO.

Azumanga Daioh
I remember a time when that one seemed to be considered pretty popular. It remains my all time favorite slice of life series (Yuru Camp being second)

My Hero Academia & Cowboy Bebop are probably the most mainstream/popular of my favorites outside the ones I already mentioned.

I normally don’t care about dubs (the only one I’m currently watching is The Ones Within) but I still find it annoying when they only have one version on a service and the other version on a different service.
-
Their simulcast lineup is a bit lacking. But their back catalog is still pretty impressive especially if you go the VRV route which gives you access to Hidive’s titles. And CR still has some good exclusive titles (Konosuba, Laid Back (Yuru) Camp, A Place Further Than the Universe).
My only complaint about VRV is an apparent glitch with the subtitles on their version of Hidive where sometimes the same line repeats over and over taking up a lot of the screen (I didn’t notice this happening on the standalone version)
Funimation is sharing a lot of their simulcasts with Hulu, but not all. And they seem to be keeping the dubs to themselves.

Season 2 episode 4
As glad as I am to see the last of Apollo (hopefully), can’t help but feel the wargame wrapped up too quickly and easily.

I have mixed feelings about the new characters they’ve introduced so far. On the one hand they all have traits that make them potentially likable. But then the writers exaggerate other characteristics that make it hard to take them seriously, which is the same problem I have with Senku & Taiju. It seems to be mainly the male characters though.

Everyone needs to start somewhere. Hopefully some folks here can make the journey more enjoyable for you.
Looks like you’re mainly into shonen. I recommend the currently airing Kimetsu no Yaiba & catching up on My Hero Academia in preparation for season 4 starting in October

Was actually worried that the remainder of the first season would feel like a bit of a letdown after the awesomeness of episode 19. But info Muco has provided helps to clarify the bigger picture (can’t help but think season 2 is a certainty).
My current anime-of-the-season, and could potentially dethrone Dororo as my AOTY. Of course I haven’t started Vinland Saga yet & MHA season 4 is still upcoming.

@Seshi you remind me of Nyamo from Azumanga Daioh as you always try to set a good example for the rest of us here
Which is not to say you don’t have your limits

Tanjiro is obvious choice for favorite character as he’s pretty much the perfect shonen protagonist.
But have to admit I’m surprised by how I feel about Zenitsu. Seshi probably remembers I was prepared to hate the guy just by how cartoonish he seemed in the OP/ED and promotional shots. Even thought he might ruin the whole series. And was really annoyed by him in his first appearance. But I’ve since come to believe he’s not actually a “coward”. A true coward would have just abandoned tgat kid when they were trapped in that house. A true coward wouldn’t have taken a beating from Inosuke to protect Tanjiro’s box, even when he could sense a demon inside it. More recently we saw that despite how much he complained about how his master treated him, he was actually grateful to have someone who didn’t give up on him and wouldn’t let him give up on himself. He actually does want to do better, but has an uphill battle against his neurosis and lack of confidence. It’s too early to say I respect him, but I don’t just see him as a joke character now and actually find myself rooting for him.

What makes Death Note the GOAT
in Anime Discussion
Posted
I think what makes it stand out more than anything is how it was a battle of wits. For most people anime is generally characterized by very flashy fight scenes with over the top levels of violence and destruction ( Dragonball Z , Akira & Fist of the North Star). So Death Notes more cerebral style makes it stand out. But even though there’s not that much actual “action” it had a very dramatic art style that got your attention
