I might be wrong, but I think it the only TV series he ever directed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have Perfect Blue on DVD to watch next too, but I can't say I'm familiar with Satoshi Kon's work outside these two projects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've looked up online he directed Tokyo Godfathers, Millennium Actress, Paprika and Good morning. Perfect Blue looks to be his first film he was director on, he also did direct three episodes of the original JoJo run. The more you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohayotaku Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 (edited) Spriggan (2022) episode 3 - best ep yet. The chemistry between Yuu, Yoshino & Akatsuki was great Akatsuki: I’m only 32 Yoshino: Oh, that’s old, you know Akatsuki: No, it’s not Yoshino: Yes, it is Akatsuki: No, it’s not Yoshino: Yes, it is Akatsuki: No, it’s not Yoshino: Is too Akatsuki: I’ll kick your ass Yoshino: Eek! Yuu: Oh, good grief. Edited July 4, 2022 by Ohayotaku Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one seems to be trying to project a more upbeat/cuter image, while still addressing the “questionable” ethics. Not sure how well that’s going to work out, but will keep watching for now. Also reminds me somewhat of Princess Principal. The 1st ep of Yurei Deco. Well that was … trippy Seems like it will explore the potential impact of virtual/augmented reality on society. The more Love (likes) a person has, the more they can customize how the world appears to them & how they appear to others. Some similar concepts to Dennou Coil but with an Adventure Time artstyle. Hack reminds of Edward from Cowboy Bebop quite a bit. Edited July 4, 2022 by Ohayotaku Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Started watching Love After World Domination. I cracked up the entire time they transformed into the Gelato 5 and then did their individual attacks. I'll keep going with this show for now. The first ep was pretty amusing, and I like the concept of mortal enemies falling in love with each other and trying to actually date and spend time together while hiding it from everybody else.

Ohayotaku Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 (edited) Finished Spriggan 2022 & enjoyed it quite a bit. Hope it gets a season 2 since it ended on a bit of a cliffhanger. Fate Grand Carnival specials. Was a bit apprehensive I wouldn’t get all the jokes since I’ve never actually played FGO. But having watched Absolute Demonic Front Babylon & my penchant for myths and legends helped me pick up on most references. Also recognized Caster from Fate Zero & his obsession with Jeanne D’arc. Funniest moments were Ereshkigal‘s vtuber battle & Orion repeatedly getting skewered by Artemis. Could’ve done without Lancelot cosplaying as Fou though First 2 eps of My Isekai Life. Doubt I’ll continue this one as it was just too generic & felt like everything moved in slow motion. Edited July 5, 2022 by Ohayotaku Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Takatofan1986 Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 I started watching Ranking of Kings, and I was really loving it, such an interesting story... but then it started to get violent/bloody, which I don't like. I kept just trying to look away, thinking it wouldn't stay that way, but after a few eps it seems like it. I'm sad to drop it but.... Spoiler To keep watching a demonic figure slash peoples wrists and legs just isn't for me. - even if it wasn't demonic, but that doesn't help.

Reveal hidden contents To keep watching a demonic figure slash peoples wrists and legs just isn't for me. - even if it wasn't demonic, but that doesn't help. I have mixed feelings about that one. I liked how it tried to replicate the tone of a lot of the old legends & folk/fairy tales (which are frequently pretty dark & violent in their original versions). But I felt it tried too hard to be morally ambiguous at times & had a number of issues with it’s “conclusion”. I can appreciate & respect what they set out to do, but not so happy about how it ended. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohayotaku Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Finished the 1st season of Classroom of the Elite and thought it was decent. Watched the 1st ep of the 2nd season & thought this next test was kinda hard to follow. Also, not a fan of the new artstyle, definitely preferred the old one. Will stick with it awhile at least though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MediaConsumesMe Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Gonna start watching Stardust Memory tonight at some point, and I've also been scoping out Luna Legend Tsukihime. I know that it based of the Visual Novel Tsukihime. But that all I know, however it is type moon so might be worth a watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched that one a long time ago but don’t remember any specifics (other than most comments I saw from people familiar with the VN thought it was lacking).

I think now a days there's a meme or saying which goes 'there is no Tsukihime anime'. So I can imagine from that it not very popular. However I like to judge shows for myself, I mean Wolf's Rain, Blue Gender and even Fate Stay Night (the Studio Deen one) all have there detractors but I liked those shows. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanderer Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Watching Mamoru Hosoda's Belle in theaters with my brother was thing that I enjoyed. Learned about it while watching the millennium parade's MV when it dropped. Don't really know what to watch for summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
