My overall impression of the Summer 2020 season of anime
https://www.crunchyroll.com/forumtopic-1061920/-summer-2020-anime-awards-#58661072

Will probably pass on Higurasgi~New since I watched the original around this time last year & everything I’ve seen on it indicates it’s the same story with a slightly different art style (actually prefer the older style
)
I am planning on watching Burn the Witch this evening though.
-
My current avi is Sekhmet (aka The Witch of Sloth) from Re:Zero. Which fits my mood lately -_-zzz
-
Trying to ID your avi. Is she from Strawberry Panic?
-
@Ohayotaku Yes she is! Shizuma Hanazono. One of the main characters in the series.
-

@Ohayotaku Right. Last time I watched it I believe I was still in school. I remember binge watching the entire series with my best friend; sitting on my bed. Would have to take a couple bathroom breaks and get snacks but otherwise my entire weekend was spent watching that series, lol. I miss those times honestly.

Ah yes, birthdays. Life’s little way of saying
Life’ll kill ya, but doesn’t mean we can’t put up one hell of a fight

Made my first post-Covid trip to the movies to see The New Mutants. Certainly not on the same level as the Avengers Marvel movies, but none of the X-men movies have been. Still found it enjoyable enough & better than I was expecting (6.5/10)
-
Hilarious that stores are already putting out the Halloween candy. Never mind the question of how many parents are going to let their kids trick or treat with Covid still around. Of course 2020 has pretty much been Halloween all year, but without any of the fun stuff.

Just saw an article reminding me that Golden Kamuy’s 3rd season is scheduled to begin in October. Though the series suffers from inconsistency, I like a number of the characters & am definitely curious to see what happens next. I do hope we get some sense of closure with this season though. I should probably do a rewatch to refresh my memory on finer points of who’s currently allied with who & what their motives are. And if they’re even still alive in the case of some characters

Watched the 1st episode of The Great Pretender on Netflix. I’ve been watching subtitled anime long enough that Japanese voices don’t bother me, but the attempts to speak English were just ... painful
Thank god they dropped it 10 minutes in or I’m not sure if I could’ve finished without muting the sound.

Finished the first arc today. Agree that it’s alright, but the constant deception pretty much took away any dramatic tension for me as after awhile I just started assuming there was going to be some side scheme plan to make everything work out. Hope the rest continues the character development & action but less busy.

I don’t drink a lot of carbonated stuff anymore, but tried Mountain Dew Spark (their take on raspberry lemonade) today. And ... I liked it
-
Sitting on my couch when I wonder “What’s that rumbling sound?” Turn on the light & open the door to see it’s pouring rain outside. My dog comes up behind me like she needs out, takes one look outside & pees in the hallway. While I’m certainly not happy, can’t say I blame her really (different story if she does a #2 though)

Just finished watching episode 5 of Deca-Dence. Times like this it really sucks to have to wait a week for the next episode. And we’re not even halfway through the season/series.

Liking the new avi

It looks good at smaller sizes. Above icon scale it gets a little blurry. I like Taurus though. Maybe I'll try to sharpen it a bit if I get a chance.
Or I could go back to the other Taurus I have:
I think I had that one before Hachirota. Also in the running are iconified versions of these..
No idea where I got them though. I just like the looks.

New trailer for the upcoming Demon Slayer movie.
Supposed to screen in North American theaters in 2021
-
Heard on the radio that today is National Chicken Wing Day. At the risk of revealing how truly maladjusted I am, I have NEVER understood this fascination. I don’t care what kind of sauce you put on them, just ain’t enough meat on the damm things.

Don’t have much expectation for this year’s baseball season, but always good when the hometeam wins on opening day

I found this anime astrology/personality test pretty fun
My result: “You are Miaka Yūki! You’re a true Taurus: not only do you enjoy food related hedonism, you’re also an avid-anime fan (and what anime fan doesn’t spend ample amounts of time at home?). Finding your way back home is also a hugely important task for you, and it doesn't get more Taurus than that. You’re trustworthiness, stubbornness, and loyalty to your friends does not go unnoticed.“ (seems fairly accurate, though I’m actually a Cancer)

I got Kakashi Hatake (Virgo). The text said, "Though people might underestimate your power on first glance, they quickly realize you’re a highly intelligent, pragmatic individual who comes out on top in most situations. The Earth sign shines brightly in you, and you’re notable for being a somewhat introverted hardworker, thoroughly dedicated to your students."
Sounds good. I'll take it. And I actually am a
* irl.
Not familiar enough with the Naruto universe to know what to think about the character association though, and the fact that I don't have any students makes me a bit of skeptical of the result.
Then again, being
makes me skeptical of all metaphysics by nature.
*A Sept. b-day puts me in Virgo in the western school of astrology. I was born in '64 so In the Eastern I'm a (wood) Dragon.

Not sure how much I’ve “matured” or “grown” over the past year, but I’ve definitely “aged”

My impressions of the Spring 2020 season
https://www.crunchyroll.com/forumtopic-1059446/-spring-2020-anime-awards-#58587283
just a side note, these are not the “Official” awards Crunchyroll makes a big deal over, it’s something some subscribers do as an alternative.

I was kinda confused by the ending scene of Deca Dence’s first ep. Just watched the second & completely changes your expectations for what it will be about. Don’t know how much potential it will actually fulfill, but could really be something special.

@giolaxone Basic set up is 90% of the human population is wiped out & the earth is now a wasteland filled with all sorts of mutated monsters. Survivors live in a giant mobile fortress. The MC is an orphan who wanted to join military because her dad was killed by monsters, but was rejected because she lost an arm in the attack.
But then the 2nd ep shows an entirely unexpected side to the story (in a down the rabbit hole sense). Still a lot of questions about what’s actually going on & unknown how well it will be able to tie it all altogether. But definitely got a lot of peoples attention. And it’s the same director as Mob Psycho & production company as Yojo Senki (Tanya the Evil) so definitely has potential to be really special.
