You’d previously mentioned Campfire Cooking in Another World & Restaurant to Another World which are probably the most enjoyable of what I’ve seen. Toriko is an action shonen series with an emphasis on cooking & food, but more like DBZ or One Piece than the D&D elements of typical fantasy series. If memory serves, Farming Life in Another World had cooking elements in it, but the emphasis was more on village & harem building.

I haven’t seen Today’s Menu for the Emiya Family, but concept wise sounds similar to Restaurant to Another World with characters from the Fate franchise (has a decent score & I’ll probably check out eventually). Also haven’t seen Shining Hearts or Sweet Reincarnation (food seems to be a recurring theme,  but MAL scores aren’t very good)

Thanks. I will watch Today’s Menu for the Emiya Family,.

I really liked Sweet reincarnation. Seen it twice. Bit kiddish but still enjoyable

The subtitled version of Lazarus episode 1 unlocked on the Adult Swim app this weekend, so I’ll probably be following it weekly now. Hope it holds up better than Ninja Kamui did.

While I believe it’s more comedic, Rock is a Lady’s Modesty also delivers with the intense rocker girls (with some yuri overtones)

I'm watching Konosuba.

I heard a bit about it on here and thought it might be a bit of fun.

I was wrong, it's not a bit of fun. it's a LOT of fun!

I watched Yona of the dawn for the second time. I cannot believe that despite its popularity they never finished the anime. It has a very open end, where the manga (which i dont read) ended 10 years later.

I finished the first season of Konosuba today and started the second season. I'm enjoying this series and find the crazy antics of the cast great fun to watch.

I just started watching Digimon Adventure — it’s my first time watching anything from the Digimon series.
I kept seeing stuff about the 25th anniversary and got curious, so I finally gave it a try.

Just finished Fire Force S3 Ep6. The series has had better episodes, but I felt like this week was it’s  best so far this season.

@Wickett sorry if I’m wrong, but I believe you were the one who asked my opinion about Burn’s motives earlier

 

so it seems Burns has always dedicated himself to the service of a “supreme being”. His adollo link revealed that to be The Evangelist. The fact that  the “God” he had served was not benevolent but wanted to destroy humanity did nothing to diminish it’s overwhelming power. Joker also realized he stood no chance of defeating The Evangelist but decided to fight anyway. Burn’s felt his direct resistance wouldn’t do any good, but by setting himself up as an obstacle that had to be overcome, perhaps it would force the newer generation  (Shinra) to become strong enough to do what he couldn’t. Basically, talk is cheap. You say you can defeat “God”, prove it because you don’t stand a chance if you can’t beat me.

Overall an awesome episode, but I was left kinda apprehensive by the ending, because apparently they’re going to try being funny again. I realize it’s a matter of personal taste, but a lot of times the series’ sense of humor doesn’t land for me & the repeated instances of interjecting it at highly dramatic moments just kills the forward momentum. Still keeping my fingers crossed it will work out this time.

I believe so, it’s been a while since I watched the previous seasons. Will probably rewatch from the beginning before the final cour next year.

I was, and I believe your running theory is a pretty solid take. 

Spoiler

I don't buy at all that Burns is suddenly a bad guy, I think he and Joker both intend to do good but have taken very different routes to get there. I also don't think it'll be long before we know whether or not this is true.

It's hit and miss with me, sometimes it's annoying and disruptive but other times it's strangely comical so I try to roll with it.

Haha both series i haven't seen. But i am surprised Nico is a woman's name in Japan

WHo creates the age rating on anime? Does Crunchy roll do that? i am always surprised. What in my eye is the most childish series get a 14+ year rating. And why? " profanity, suggestive dialogue" . Wahaha she says she loves him once and thinks about a kiss. That's it

I love big-name or visually-stunning anime. I see good stuff out there, but nothing really stands out. I have preferences as to what I'd like to see. It has to equally catch and keep my attention.
