  1. So, thought I would create a topic where members can give their general thoughts on the current season’s anime series until they decide which ones deserve their own topics for discussion. My first impressions: GOOD FIRST IMPRESSION To the Abandoned Sacred Beasts (fantasy/supernatural) Fire Force (shonen/supernatural) Magical Sempai (comedy/ecchi) How Heavy a Dumbbell Can You Lift? (comedy/ecchi) If it’s for my Daughter... (fantasy/kawaii) BAD FIRST IMPRESSION Dr. Stone (shonen/scifi) Demon Lord Retry (isekai/OP) Are you Lost? (adventure/CGDCT?) Astra Lost in Space (adventure/scifi) BTW, the reason I labeled Are you Lost? As CGDCT? is because there aren’t many Cute Girls Doing Disgusting Things series -_-; What does everyone else think of the season so far?
  2. So comedy series with a male lead? Try Gintama & Great Teacher Onizuka. Also, I seem to remember Air Gear having some similarities to Kenichi.
  3. Maburaho had a guy who could only use magic a very limited number of times before it killed him. Pretty sure Magic Users Club had a teddy bear mascot the female lead talked to. Both focused on students who could use magic. Neither sound like an exact match, but all I can think of at the moment
  4. Went on a roadtrip to visit family out of state and some tourist attractions last weekend to beat the 4th of July traffic. This weekend will probably go to see Spiderman: Far From Home & finish off the spring season anime & start on the summer season. Gonna try to stay out of the heat as much as possible though there are some home projects I need to take care of before winter.
  5. Cowboy Bebop is pretty unique IMO but a couple that have some common elements: Samurai Champloo; Gun x Sword; Coyote Ragtime Show; Megalobox; Baccano; Black Lagoon; Hakata Tonkatsu Ramens; Outlaw Star; Gun Frontier; Captain Harlock
  6. Didn’t get to watch anime over the weekend, because I was on a roadtrip, so I still need to catch up on spring season anime. Fortunately the new seasons always start out slow.

      It was, but after a couple days away, I’m glad to get back home.

      Finished up AoT, Bokuben & got current on Demon Slayer last night. Still need to finish OPM, Sarazanmai & Cinderella Nine.

  7. Closest I can think of to the two you mentioned are Flowers of Evil & Scum’s Wish. If youre open to something more comedic/lighthearted maybe We Never Learn or Quintessential Quintuplets. My personal faves when it comes to RomComs are Recovery of an MMO Junkie & ReLIFE, though I’m not sure either is really what you’re looking for.
  8. Yeah, I’ll be sticking with it awhile

      This series has been going on wayyyy to long.

  9. Not sure if “shameful” or “shameless” is the vest word to describe Yuki’s brother as he comes across as being even more of a handful than Haru :lol: I pity the poor teachers who had him & Shigure as students together. Funny that Hatori was/is assigned to keep him out of trouble.
  10. The series seemed to get quite a bit of criticism, mainly on 2 points: 1) it being a fairly generic shonen series & 2) the MC being annoying, especially his voice. While I agree on both points and dropped it fairly early on, but there’s a very good chance I’ll give it another try someday (certainly a better chance than Naruto or Radiant)
  11. https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2019-06-27/crunchyroll-expo-hosts-world-premiere-of-mob-psycho-100-ii-ova/.148357 Since this is is part of their promo event, hopefully CR will stream it at some point, because it sounds like a direct follow up to season 2 and not a recap this time.
  12. We Never Learn (Bokuben) is getting another season in October. Something of a guilty pleasure as it’s a harem comedy, but I’m enjoying it :D

      I’m glad you e got that to look forward to 🙂

  13. Grinding to increase your levels & stats before a big boss fight is standard rpg procedure anyway
  14. Not really. Nature seems to be what’s trying to kill me :lol: I’ll look into it though. A daily Claritin seems to keep things under control most of the time while allowing me to remain functional, but seems like there’s always a couple days out of the year when it isn’t enough, though I never seem to be able to predict it
  15. Like today is gonna be one of those days when Claritin isn’t going to do enough against my allergies. Unfortunately I can’t take Benadryl and work. - _- zzz
  16. Has been in the low 90’s F the past couple days, and supposed to continue for the foreseeable future. Was thinking that 23 seemed comparable to winter here, then I noticed the C ... 73F sounds nice for winter, but I kinda worry what summer must be like
  17. Welcome Several series you mentioned as your favourites are ones I enjoyed as well. And of course you avy is everyones favorite Chuni-mage Hope you enjoy it here
  18. Well it certainly didn’t take long for Hatsu & Momiji to make an impression on the school now did it? :lol: On the serious side of things
  19. 25 episodes in the first season, but obviously the story is meant to be continued
  20. Agree with this as well. What’s particularly troubling is when you point out the very real safety and security concerns the solutions they propose are the same as the ones for older technology that still haven’t proven effective. Invariably the final argument is “Well it’s going to happen whether you like it or not so just accept it or get left behind”. THAT’S annoying.
  21. Just finished watching the season finale. The last fight proved to be underwhelming, but it redeemed itself somewhat with the sentiment in the 2nd half of the episode. I’ll probably post some more indepth comments once I’ve had some time to reflect on things and put my thoughts in order. Another season is almost inevitable, but that will probably be next year at the earliest. As it stands this will be my #2 or #3 for the season depending on the next episode of AoT.
