Made it into work to find that only one other person bothered to show up
May as well get some things done since I’m already here.

Not sure if you’d be interested but you mentioned watching several series from this season & Crunchyroll so there’s this thread on CR’s forums
https://www.crunchyroll.com/forumtopic-1070430/-fall-2021-anime-awards-#58881261
It’s nothing official, just something some people on there do that I enjoy participating in. I think it started as kind of a way for subscribers to voice their own opinions since they felt CR’s official awards kinda suck most of the time
A year end 2021 version will go up shortly after “voting” on the fall season ends.

and even tho crunchyroll and funimation are run buy the same owners these days
and seem to be airing a similar line up this season
crunchyroll have already aired The Irregular at Magic High School: Reminiscence Arc and Lord El-Melloi II's Case Files {Rail Zeppelin} Grace note Special in the last 12hrs and funimation are not doing so for another week or two as i understand

Kind of disappointed, but at least they’re trying to do a quality job instead of half-assing it. If it can prevent another Wonder Egg Priority fiasco it’s worth it.

https://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2021/12/21/crunchyroll-announces-winter-2022-lineup
looks like Funi will share Lord El Melloi, Ranking of Kings & Vanitas with them as well.

Thought this was kinda interesting personality quiz
I wound up scoring Ikebukuro.

Definitely plan on checking this out this evening (assuming the power doesn’t get knocked out by the predicted storms)
-
@Ohayotaku Definitely.
As as aside, Crunchy really, really, REALLY needs to work on their site. According to Crunchy's bizarre presentation this is going to be "season 16". WTF???

So no season 2, that’s a relief https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2021-12-09/netflix-cancels-live-action-cowboy-bebop-show/.180460
Hopefully they’ll rethink their other live action adaptions

Ed actually did make an appearance right at the end & it was so bad I honestly wish they’d left her out altogether. Over the course of it’s run, it managed to **** on everything I loved about the original. Thing of it is, if they’re going to insist on making live action versions of anime (which I personally don’t see the point in) Cowboy Bebop should have been one of the easier series to adapt. No way in hell they’re going to pull off One Piece’s devil fruit powers without a massive CG animation budget. And if they leave them out, it won’t be One Piece. Just a terrible idea.

Temps got into the mid 50s today, so did what will probably be the last of the end of season yard work. Perfect timing as it started raining just as I was wrapping up. Now just hope we don’t get a lot of ice & snow this winter.

Had a dream last night about being in one of those university towns where you have to park your car & then walk everywhere you want to go. Except I forgot where I parked & was just wandering around with no idea where I was or where I was headed. The symbolism ain’t exactly subtle, is it? Woke up feeling tireder than when I went to bed. Gonna be a fun day at work today, I can tell.
-
Made it though the first ep of the live action Cowboy Bebop series.
-
Not so much bad as meh. Has a totally different feel to it than the anime, but that’s a given. They started incorporating the larger drama into into it from the get go instead of letting you get attached to the characters before hitting you with the feelz which to mind is more impactful. My biggest complaint is the fight choreography feels clunky (guess I was hoping for more Jackie Chan caliber). And you can tell it’s a western project because they’ve increased the amount of cursing For what it’s worth, I started the 2nd ep & it’s at least somewhat better.
I personally don’t get the need for doing live action adaptions (not just anime, but like the Disney remakes as well though I did enjoy the first Maleficent movie. Then again, my own personal fascination/appreciation is with animation as a medium/artform. And now Netflix has live action adaptions of One Piece & Yuyu Hakusho in the works

I remain skeptical, but will check it out

Friday the 13th is still better than any given Monday

So … Funiroll or Crunchymation?
https://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2021/08/09/crunchyroll-now-joining-funimation-global-group-
They were sharing a lot of content a couple years back, but then went back to being competitors with Crunchyroll Originals & Funimation Exclusives. Funi eventually came to terms to buy out CR, but the government stepped over possible monopoly concerns. But apparently it’s been greenlit. So now we wait to see what happens to the 2 platforms & how it will affect legal licensing of anime titles.
On a related note, Netflix seems to be putting more emphasis on anime, their latest announcement being they will make the latest JJBA series available worldwide before it even broadcasts on Japanese television
