KaiyaSaysHaiya Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 the other day I decided to rewatch Howl's Moving Castle!! It's one of my absolute favourite movies now and it's started a Studio Ghibli obsession lol. I finished watching Kiki's Delivery service a few minutes ago and I'm deciding which one to watch next Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulletje76 Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 I am not a guy for open ends haha Just finsihed Dead Mount death play. I liked it an would recommend it. But the ending feels like we are still mid season. And i know,..great so they can continue s2 with a great storyline. But still. Really open ends, never my thing. BTW this was a great anime. I can also recommend the other one, magic and muscles. I have still 3 hrs before sleep, what to watch now haha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animedragon Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 I've now finished watching Anonymous Noise, not a bad series, but not a particularly good one either. It's another of those high school Slice of Life series about a group of students who are in a band, and I've seen better examples of this scenario. The artwork and animation are a decent quality, but the storyline ah, yes, the storyline. The main character is a girl who likes singing and wearing a surgical mask, but not usually at the same time, she's trying to find her childhood friend who moved away suddenly without any notice or warning. Later on she meets another guy so a sort of love triangle develops between the two guys and the girl, but it's a bit of a messed up triangle because none of them are honest with themselves of each other about expressing their feelings. While the storyline does a good job of exploring the complex relationships between the main cast ultimately it goes nowhere and the series ends back where it started with no real resolution.

And since you liked Dead Mount Death Play you might like Baccano & Durarara (by the same writer) 18 hours ago, KaiyaSaysHaiya said: the other day I decided to rewatch Howl's Moving Castle!!

Ohayotaku Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Got current on The Duke of Death & His Maid season 2. Helck has improved somewhat, more likely that I will stick with it. Really enjoying Zom 100, but the repeated delays between eps is annoying. And the fourth group member still hasn’t made her debut yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animedragon Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Today I finished watching the first season of Non Non Biyori, which is a series about four cute girls who live in the country and do cute things. It has no real overall story and is just a series of incidents from their lives, in short it has nothing to really commend it... ...Except that it is a brilliant series and great fun to watch. I really liked the subtle situational humour and the long pauses where the character clearly has no idea how to respond or react to a question or situation. I also liked the Russian Rice Balls gag, where you fill one rice ball with mustard and the person who gets it loses. (even better was the fact that the person who made the rice balls lost!)

Animedragon Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 I've just watched the Non Non Biyori Vacation movie. Great fun to watch and full of the usual cute girl craziness and subtle humour. One of the gang wins the grand prize in the supermarket's lottery (I wonder how many times that's happened in an anime series). So off they all go and have a great time together.

Animedragon Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 Yesterday I finished watching the first season of Sounds of Life. This is another one of those Slice of Life series based around the members of a high school club, but this one is rather different to the usual stories. The club in question is the Koto club, a Koto is a large traditional Japanese stringed instrument. With all but one of its members having graduated the sole remaining member is looking for new recruits to keep the club from being disbanded but the members he gets aren't quite the sort he would have wanted because several of them have, well earned, reputations for being delinquent trouble-makers and fighters and another is a highly talented Koto player from a prestigious family who is rather scathing about everyone else's skill level. The club has a lot of problems ranging from hostility from other students, a vice principal who would like the trouble-makers expelled and the Koto club shut down and a club advisor who'd rather the club didn't exist. The Koto club isn't the harmonious happy group of friends that we normally get in this sort of series, but as the series progresses we learn the backstories of the main characters and their reasons for joining the club and we see the club slowly coming together. While I wouldn't say I enjoyed watching this series, it's not a fun storyline, but on another level I did enjoy watching as the characters tried to overcome their pasts and strive to produce something good between them The artwork and animation are of a decent quality and it has quite a good and interesting storyline so I'm looking forward to watching the second season.

Valael Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 I started watching Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead I like it a lot. I'm very amused that the protagonist prefers the apocalypse before going to work. (I feel a bit the same :P) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
efaardvark Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 Did the 3-ep thing on The Girl I Like Forgot Her Glasses. Planning on continuing at the end of the season but I gotta say I already have one complaint about the animation. The dust motes. One of those things that you don't notice right away but once I did I found it very distracting. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Animedragon Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 I finished the second series of Sounds of Life today. For a Slice of life series based on a high school club it's certainly different. Following on from the first series the club members have sorted out their differences and have started to seriously work together as a team, they've also successfully won over, or at least, lessened the antagonism of some of the other students and the Vice-Principal. In the second series they face opposition from an influential person outside the school. The artwork and animation remains of a good quality the storyline and pacing is also good, although in a couple of places I felt the pacing was a bit slow and drawn out, the character development and interaction between the club members and their acquaintances outside the club remain well done. This is after all a music based series and as would be expected the music is very good, the background music compliments the music the group play on their Kotos very well. While series 1 gets off the a rather rocky start in the first few episodes they are important to the overall storyline. So viewed as a whole I think that this is an excellent, but underrated, anime. There are rumours of a third season being produced, and given where the second ends a third is needed, but as usual there is no firm date for this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
