I’m starting to check out Ojamajo Doremi.

I remember seeing ads for the dub “Magical Doremi” on the 4Kids TV website when I was In elementary school as well as ads for the toys from it.

 

I tried watching it, but I only got through 1 episode

[Colu]

Oh yeah, the other day I tried the first four episodes of that Konosuba(?) anime I’ve seen mentioned around here. Totally couldn’t get into it at all tbh, I don’t think I’ll bother continuing it. Oh well, it was worth a try!

It was indeed a blast of frustration, perhaps also ignited by a difficult day at work and private. All though i mean the global thought behind it, i was way to harsh. i apologize. Perhaps this week later i will try to make my point in a more civilized manner

I just watched Alderamin on the Sky. I liked it, all though every episode got darker. To bad there never came a 2nd season 

I wasn't trying to grill you either, mind you, I guess I just saw an opening for a debate and went at it. 

I tried to watch Alderamin but didn't care for it enough to hang on. Considering it's reviews on CR though, I'm surprised it didn't get a second season.

I'm working my through Frieren and am fairly surprised as to how much I'm enjoying it. It has a nice unfolding story, great use of flashbacks without being obnoxious, and three great supporting characters so far.

Rewatching Ranma 1/2.

I'm rewatching Aquatope on White Sand. A nice little Slice of life series about two girls working in an aquarium.

Oh i didnt feel grilled. No worries. The next day i read my reply back and noticed it was to agressive and i used words and arguments that were unbecoming of a fan forum. I will go into debate with you some other time. 

To bad you didnt stuck with alderamin. The serie gets better with every episode. 

Watching The Too-Perfect Saint: Tossed Aside by My Fiancé and Sold to Another Kingdom now, the last 2 eps released. But somehow i lost my interest in this show. Will finish it though,

They have an anime.

Are you liking it?  The show is entertaining.

thank you. 

Classroom is great

[efaardvark]

Just finished the 1st 3 eps of The Too-Perfect Saint.  Kinda meh.  Not bad, but not great either.  Worth putting it on the watch list at least.

[Shinzi]

I've been watching Demon Slayer and Spy x Family. Took a liking to both.

[KaiyaSaysHaiya]

i've been watching season two of Our Happy Marriage after forgetting about it. oops but i'm enjoying it! only got a few episodes left

[KaiyaSaysHaiya]

i just binged Twilight Out Of Focus! i'm a sucker for things that focus solely on romance, so i enjoyed it, haha. it's about three couples getting together in highschool and they're all in/tied to the film club. it was twelve episodes and each couple got three-four episodes centred around them each (the finale was centred around the main couple as well). because of this, the relationships did feel quite rushed, however it was still enjoyable. all of them had very unique personalities and dynamics that were entertaining to watch :]

[Animedragon]

I finished watching Aquatope on White Sand this evening, It's a really nice Slice of Life series set in an interesting and unusual setting. I think that this is one of those underrated and under appreciated series.

@Ohayotaku how are you feeling about Fire Force at this point? Watched the new episode last night and I'm still happy with it's delivery so far.

I feel like it continues to be pretty solid. Glad they finally addressed what happened at the convent where Iris & Hibana grew up (can’t honestly remember if they touched on it at all since early in season 1). The reveal seemed a bit obvious, but satisfactory. I actually didn’t mind the humor in Arthur’s “quest” since how strongly he believes his delusions is key to how powerful he is. Was glad to see Vulcan & Lisa get some more screentime. Didn’t even remember the kid though (Yu? ) The way things ended with his parents left a bit of a sour taste though

 

guess it’s a good thing he’s too much of an “idiot” to take it personally

And looks like we’ll get a confrontation between Shinra and

 

Sho

as we head into this cours end. Hope we get some of the awesome fight animation we got in earlier seasons.

I watched The Tunnel to Summer, the Exit of Goodbyes today. It's a movie I've wanted to watch for a while but I finally managed to find a UK Blu-ray release. I wasn't really sure what to expect from it.  Possible spoiler below.

I thought it was going to have a sad ending, and for a while it looked like it would, but it didn't.

Overall I thought it a very good movie with a thoughtful and well thought out story line.

Watched the first 3 eps of the Yaiba remake on Netflix last night & found it surprisingly enjoyable. I can see a lot of modern anime fans being put off by it’s cartoonish character designs & humor (think pre-Z Dragonball), but the quality of the actual animation is top tier thanks to WIT Studios (famous for their work on Attack on Titan & Vinland Saga season 1). Given past experiences it’s unlikely to hold my attention long term, but a cour or two of retro vibes with modern production values might be a fun diversion/change of pace.

[RyePotatoes]

I quite like long anime series as well. The longest animes in my collection are Sailor Moon, Cardcaptor Sakura, You're Under Arrest and Fushigi Yugi. All very different types of anime and all enjoyable to watch.

I'm not so keen on the current trend of 13 episode series, I find I've only just got to know the characters and the story ends.

[Bulletje76]

Watched 'The beginning after the end'. Will not go into another rant haha nut that this has a 3.8 on CR is beyond me. This is one of the best isekai i have ever seen. And i saw a lot. This ep was again great. Now of to todays healer ep

Oh my gosh!! YESSSS!!! That's what I mean! It's frustrating. 25 eps I can live with especially with many seasons.

You're Under Arrest is a slice of life series set in the present day and centres around the lives and activities of two young female Tokyo traffic police officers and their friends, family and fellow police officers. It's a highly enjoyable series. The stories are a nice mix of crazy action, serious drama and just about everything inbetween. 

Don't underestimate that little patrol car, it's a highly tuned mean machine.
