Ohayotaku Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Started watching the Demon Slayer (Kimetsu no Yaiba) recap specials as a refresher before going to see the Mugen Train movie friday evening. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohayotaku Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 (edited) Saw Kimetsu no Yaiba: Mugen Train over the weekend. From an animation & soundtrack perspective an absolute spectacle & truly impressive. The story seemed a bit lacking though & I felt they laid on the melodrama a bit thick. Personally I felt season 1 had several moments with more emotional impact. Still a worthy follow up & if you plan to watch season 2 when it comes out you should watch the movie first.

2xVEmmallee Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 I just started watching GTO; Great Teacher Onizuka. It aired in 1999-2000, and I'm loving it so much. An ex-gangster wants to become a teacher, and deals with his problem students in a wide array of questionable methods. Despite his tough demeanor, he believes all kids should have fun at school. It starts off really perv-ey and hilarious, but hes not a super terrible guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohayotaku Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 (edited) The Saints Magic Power is Omnipotent - this one’s pretty lowkey to the point I think a lot of people would be bored by it, but I’m actually enjoying it quite a bit. MC (Sei) is a modern day Japanese office lady who is summoned to a fantasy world to save it from catastrophe. Except 2 women arrive instead of just 1. The Prince abruptly declares the other woman to be the prophesied “Saint” and whisks her away to prepare for her role. Unfortunately they don’t have a way to send Sei back home, so she is declared an honored guest. Meaning she is treated courteously & has her needs met but isn’t actually expected to contribute in a meaningful way. Out of boredom she starts spending time in the castle library & gardens, leading her to study potions & magic. As her affinity for it grows, an increasing number of people become convinced that she is the actual “Saint”. Although Sei would just as soon stay out of the spotlight, her unwillingness to not help when she can makes it look like being drawn into the kingdom’s intrigues is inescapable.

Ohayotaku Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 (edited) 86 - I’d recommend it to those impatiently waiting for the finale of AoT as it also deals with teenage soldiers dealing with the dehumanizing effects of war with a racial/class bigotry aspect to it. Has an Iron Blooded Orphans feel to it as well. https://myanimelist.net/anime/41457/86?q=86&cat=anime Edited May 2, 2021 by Ohayotaku 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mechaBD Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Been busy with work so I am just starting the new seasonal stuff. Going to probably watch Nagatoro first and 86 tonight. I read some of Nagatoro and 86 looks cool. I'm really hyped for it now after reading your post Ohayotaku. I LOVED IRON BLOOD. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohayotaku Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 (edited) The Saint’s Magic Power is Omnipotent episode 5 - so funny that it took Sei this long to realize her life is like something out of an Otome game Still pretty chill, but betting on an attempted coup by the end.

Aladdin Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 I've been rewatching the Ghibli Studio movies which pretty much fits the weather, it's rainy and dark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
efaardvark Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Mashiro no Oto. I’m always a bit reluctant to watch stuff where the mc is supposed to be some sort of awesome performer. Too often it doesn’t work and winds up being kinda cringeworthy. This one does have some decent shamisen playing however. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
efaardvark Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 イヴの時間, aka Time of Eve. 6 short episodes but of the kind that get you thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohayotaku Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Giving Tokyo Revengers another look since it’s so hyped right now. Only on ep 3 so far, but definitely more Three O’clock High than Steins Gate. I expect it to be more of a “feel don’t think” series where you root for the underdog to redeem himself by saving his buddies & girlfriend.

efaardvark Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 Just finished S3 of DanMachi. Not bad but not great. Really disliked the sudden "and then everything went back to normal" ending. If they were going to do that I'd have been fine with them stopping after S2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohayotaku Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 Saga of Tanya the Evil - Operation Desert Pasta ”An army marches on it’s stomach”, indeed A tongue in cheek way to celebrate the announcement that a season 2 has finally been greenlit.

Ohayotaku Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 (edited) Just finished the final episode of Nagatoro-san. I have to say it wound up being far better & more adorable than the 1st episode would lead you to believe. Yes, there is a level of lewdness through out, but it even takes a much deserved jab at the critics who would write it off as toned down fetish doujinshi trash with no redeeming value (most without even watching). The biggest pleasant surprise of the year so far & much more deserving of a 2nd season than Uzaki-chan (or Quints for that matter).

RZ. Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 Otogizoushi: Legend of the Magatama. It has such a unique story and artwork so far. Finished Gensoumaden Saiyuki and Canaan which were both awesome, though I'm a little sad I watched 100+ episodes of Saiyuki not knowing they haven't actually finished it yet lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That one did pass the 3ep test to make it onto my watch list but tbh it is one of those I’ll probably keep pushing down my queue in favor of more interesting material. I’ll give it another episode or two. If it hasn’t pulled me in by then however it is likely doomed to watch-list limbo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohayotaku Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 (edited) Binged 5 episodes of Godzilla Singular point, but shelved it. If I ever do give it another look, will probably go with the dub because it’s almost impossible to keep up reading the subtitles. Wasn’t really feeling it anyway (not sure how much of it was a genuine attempt to incorporate quantum physics & cryptid zoology vs just trying to be quirky/weird). To quote Milhouse, “I’m not a nerd, nerds are smart” Finished Odd Taxi. They managed to tie together the various narratives pretty effectively in the final episode. Odokawa’s backstory was even more tragic than I thought it would be. That final sequence though Edited June 30, 2021 by Ohayotaku Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last one ❸Made in Abyss: Dawn of the deep soul This was the continuation of the last series. I highly suggest that you must proceed to the 3rd movie☃ Have a great day!!
