Welcome Hope you find things to interest you here.

from The Faraway Paladin: Lord of the Rust Mountains

Be sure to watch the sequel Nomad as well.

I think all the ones I mentioned fit the bill (some of them touch on the topic of prostitution, but nothing explicit). For example Draken (from Tokyo Revengers) “adoptive” home is a brothel. Even MFKZ is more a reference to how foul-mouthed the characters are than any sexual content. I should note, some series may be on sites other than CR.

The closest thing I’ve seen on CR is probably Michiko & Hatchin, though I’m not sure if it’s what you’re looking for. MFKZ (Mutafukaz) might be closer as the name implies, but I believe it’s on Netflix. Cyberpunk: Edgerunners is a futuristic take, also on Netflix. There’s an anime called Gangsta I haven’t seen, but the art I’ve seen doesn’t show many (if any) characters of color. If you’re ok with asian street gangs, Tokyo Revengers is probably the closest I’ve seen. As far as anime that focuses on the criminal underworld: Black Lagoon • Baccano • Durarara • Hakata Tonkotsu Ramens. There are numerous other titles I’ve heard of, but honestly it’s not a genre that appeals to me in particular.

I’m currently watching Castlevania: Nocturne on Netflix, though not as good as the original series (Trevor & Sypha were better protagonists). Anime wise I’m watching Dandadan & Delico’s Nursery which have supernatural elements. Some of my favorite specials/movies for this time of year: It’s the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown • Garfield’s Halloween Adventure • Halloween is Grinch Night • Witch’s Night Out • The Halloween Tree • Para-Norman • Beetlejuice • Young Frankenstein • Warm Bodies • Hell Boy (original) • Pan’s Labyrinth • Trick ‘R Treat • Halloween I-III (original) • Friday the 13th (original) • the Ginger Snaps movies • Let Me In • Blood Red Sky • Jeepers Creepers • Phantasm • The Fog (1980) • Salems Lot (1979) • Dark Night of the Scarecrow and of course classic B&W monster movies

For me it’s Campfire Cooking in Another World With My Absurd Skill (eagerly awaiting season 2). Ainz Ooal Gown voicing an OP wolf monster with a limitless appetite will never stop being funny to me Other notables are Toriko & Food Wars (enjoyed what I’ve seen of them).

Started watching that other anime sequel from this season about crazy VR gamer frenemies (SAOA: Gun Gale Online 2). Funny how Shangri La Frontier’s NPCs have more personalty than many of the players in GGO (most of them in the opening arc at least being motivated solely by personal grudges. Though I guess it’s also to try to remind us who they are, season 1 was 6 years ago afterall ). Likewise, though there are similarities, Pitohui can be summed up as being dangerously obsessive, while Arthur is a more nuanced character. Still enjoyable & very well animated, but I definitely think SLF is better. I should also note that in both series that while the game world is immersive, the players are not trapped & there is not a direct correlation between injury/death in game to IRL.

Chrono Trigger (yes, the character designs are by Akira Toriyama of Dragonball fame) Also a fan of the Fire Emblem franchise, particularly one more notable

Season 1 was trashy, but it managed to be entertaining. But yeah, the changes they made for the new one are in no way improvements. Worst thing is the changes they made to Killer Queen’s design (from violent badass to childish tsundere) It’s understandable that they toned down Mikan’s design , but the new one is just generic looking. All the new character designs are just boring with no individuality. I stayed with the new series through episode 3 because that’s where the story was supposed to resume from season 1, but have dropped for good.

Finished my rewatch of Tower of God season 1. While it may not have lived up to it’s hype, it’s still pretty solid & reminiscent of Hunter x Hunter with it’s tests & emphasis on teamwork. While the climactic betrayal is foreshadowed from the beginning, the additional perspective the final episode provides makes it that much more impactful. Started watching season 2 & while not as enjoyable so far, still pretty good & hoping it will get better once we catch up with the returning characters. Also gradually easing into the Fall season of shows. Continuing to enjoy You Are Miss Servant even if it’s attempts at seriousness clash with it’s cuter & funnier moments. The Stories of Girls Who Couldn't Be Magicians seems like a lower quality version of Little Witch Academia but still enjoyable. 2nd seasons of Shangri La Frontier & Herbivorous Dragon continue to deliver what made their 1st ones entertaining. Questionable if I’ll stay with the Ranma 1/2 remake as I’m not really feeling it adds anything to the original. And 365 Days To the Wedding has been disappointing so far. And Dandadan has caught up to the point I saw at the movies last month so will be continuing it.

^ Not sure if it’s meant to but this one reminded me of Peridot from Steven Universe I think the Jigglypuff one is particularly adorable

Figure 17 - half action scifi, half growing-up slice of life. Just be warned the emotions hit hard particularly in later episodes. Scrapped Princess - one of the best twist revelations about what’s actually going on. Raven of the Inner Palace - every bit as good as The Apothecary Diaries (the supernatural elements actually make it better IMO). Currently picking up the light novels because a 2nd season is questionable at this point. Rune Soldier - funnier than Slayers (fight me)

Not Halloween songs, but the videos sure have that vibe
