Ohayotaku 2,036 Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Giving a couple of my early drops from this season (Tonikawa & Noblesse) a second look. Link to post Share on other sites

Ohayotaku 2,036 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Started off 2021 by binging a short ONA series called Youjo Shachou (Cute Executive Ofticer). Ridiculous gimmick as a concept with cheap animation. And I haven’t laughed this much since Asobi Asobase Especially with the final skit (shout out to Aggretsuko?) Link to post Share on other sites

efaardvark 1,304 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Just rediscovered Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress in my crunchy queue. I'd started (1st 2 eps) it a while back and I'd been meaning to go back but I kept forgetting it as it got pushed down in my queue. Glad I rediscovered it. This time I'm gonna make sure I finish it before I get distracted again. Might be a long night. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Anyway, a little zombie now and then is relished by the wisest men*. What's to resolve in a zombie movie? <never mind.. No spoilers!> (*with apologies to Dahl. ) Edited January 11 by efaardvark Link to post Share on other sites
Ohayotaku 2,036 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Watched the first ep of Wonder Egg Priority. Honestly had no idea what to exoect, but looks to be a surreal psychodrama. A word of warning, traumatic themes like bullying & suicide appear to be key. Link to post Share on other sites

Ohayotaku 2,036 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Binged the first 8 episodes of Log Horizon’s 2nd season over the weekend. While I wouldn’t call it bad, I do agree with the general consensus that it’s a step down from season 1. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

While I wouldn’t call it bad, I do agree with the general consensus that it’s a step down from season 1. I kept waiting for it to make its point. At times it felt almost filler-ish. Not bad but ... needs another season at least just to bring all the loose ends together and firm up the plot. In other news, I finished In/Spectre. I was kind of expecting it to be more a series of different mini-arcs, a-la Natsume's Book of Friends, or Mushishi. That Nanase arc basically took over the second half .. and not incidentally set it up for future seasons. I guess I'm ok with that, even if it wasn't what I was expecting/looking for. I did come around to the Kotoko/Kurou pairing eventually too. I wasn't too hot on it initially but it kind of grew on me. Link to post Share on other sites
kamomesan 12 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 (edited) Just finished Gabriel DropOut. Imo, Raphi is a critically underappreciated tenshi when it comes to fan favorites Edited February 3 by kamomesan 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Crystal 5 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 Otherside Picnic and Yashahime at the moment. Link to post Share on other sites
kamomesan 12 Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 Experiencing episode 1 of Dallos for the first time. The blend of 80's music, cel animation and futurist space imagery is rather nostalgic 1 Link to post Share on other sites
EnviousEnvy 377 Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Got back into Food Wars again. Link to post Share on other sites
Kohloo 986 Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Lately we’ve been cycling through: • Food Wars • Inuyasha • FMA: Brotherhood • Bleach • Gurren Lagann We’re coming to the end of Food Wars and FMA: Brotherhood, so we’ll probably continue watching Sailor Moon once those are done.

efaardvark 1,304 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 (edited) Thought I'd check out the first half of So I'm a spider. Intrigued and still not sure what's going on here but I think the monkey army business was my "stop.. that's too silly" moment. Edited February 14 by efaardvark Link to post Share on other sites
Mouse 0 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 March Comes in Like a Lion, I just watched episode 10. He needs to stop entertaining his stepsister. Walk away from her until she understands what is and isn’t acceptable in a conversation. I’m also watching “Ao-chan Can't Study!”. It’s a short, light comedy, that I recommend (if you’re at least 15). Link to post Share on other sites
efaardvark 1,304 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 I watched about half of Mahou Sensou / Magical Warfare last night. Meh. Seems mostly premise with little in the way of plot so far. Link to post Share on other sites
Ohayotaku 2,036 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Laidback (Yuru) Camp season 2- up to episode 7. Nadeshiko going on her first solo camping outing (they grow up so fast ) Rin & Sakura’s apprehension is understandable, but she demonstrates that she has been learning & paying attention to the advice she’s given. Reinforces a lot of my belief that much of her scatter-brained behavior is just being overly enthusiastic/energetic. It’s funny how despite the lack of an actual story, this season’s episodes feel like they build on last season’s. Most importantly, it continues to be a much needed weekly dose of positive energy 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Ohayotaku 2,036 Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 (edited) Resumed watching Attack on Titan: The Final Season. You really have to pay close attention to the dialogue because there’s a lot of complexity to the story & it’s being told from a different perspective from previous seasons. My understanding is that there will be a pause once the current couer is over before the conclusion. Also checked out the first couple episodes of Basquash. It’s certainly ... unique. Combining street basketball with mechs with an over the top (and more than a little ecchi) style similar to Kill la Kill & Gurren Lagann. The CGI actually doesn’t feel out of place in this one. But will probably put on hold since I’m following a lot of ongoing series. Edited February 22 by Ohayotaku Link to post Share on other sites
efaardvark 1,304 Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Tong Ling Fei. AKA Psychic Princess. aka 通灵妃. A little odd since I don't speak Chinese.. have to get used to actually reading the subs for a change. Link to post Share on other sites
