Takatofan1986 Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 (edited) Yesterday I finished Stars-Align. It was really good with some really deep themes... Spoiler Then after a mainly good ending and the credits, it came back for real endings that made things really sad, and bad... wasn't prepared for that... This morning I started Gurazeni: Money Pitch. (As I'm not a sports person but somehow love sports anime.) It's too early to comment on it yet though because I get distracted easily so I tend to only watch subbed shows while I'm eating, so I watch them slowly. Probably sometime today I'll start a new dub too, but dunno what yet. Edited June 29, 2022 by Takatofan1986 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(As I'm not a sports person but somehow love sports anime.) It's too early to comment on it yet though I watched both seasons of it. It’s not your typical sports anime as it centers on adult players instead of highschool or collegiate. It’s also not very action oriented, focusing more on the mechanics & strategic elements of the game but also slice of life. The drama & interactions can be different too, with a focus on trying to build a career in baseball (making the most of the opportunities that come your way, trying to minimize injuries & keeping in mind that your career as an active player is likely short). There are instances of young talented characters who cut there careers short with stupid mistakes, but also veterans with a long career who never actually made much of an impact. There is humor in it too, though. I can see a lot of people getting bored of it or being turned off by the artstyle, but as someone with an interest in baseball I found it enjoyable enough & definitely a departure from the norm.

I've only watched half of the first ep so far (Like I said, distracted easily.) But I can already tell its going to be different. We'll see how it goes, I really don't care much about baseball and you say its more focused on the mechanics of the game, but also humor and slice of life which are also things I love. So it could go either way. :). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wodahs Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 (edited) Quote well decided to try Koi wa Ameagari no You ni , so far seems likeable im only on ep 3 https://myanimelist.net/anime/34984 finished it Edited June 30, 2022 by Wodahs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animedragon Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Just finished Sailor Moon series 1. For a series that's 30 years old this year the quality of the artwork and animation stands up well against more recent series, the only real giveaway to its age, apart from the date showing in the opening, is the backgrounds which in some places are a bit basic. But it's still a good story with excellent characters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hällregn Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 Finally have enough time to jump back into World Trigger. I don't know what it is about this anime but it gives me a lot of nostalgia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohayotaku Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 (edited) Watched the first episode of Netflix’s Spriggan remake. Kinda like Indiana Jones meets Ghost In the Shell. Pretty cool. Also the first ep of Phantom of the Idol. Made me chuckle a couple times, so will stick with it short term at least.

Takatofan1986 Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 I'm watching Ranking of Kings. It's... very interesting. I don't know what I expected going into it, but when I started the first episode, I very quickly almost turned it off. but I'm glad I didn't. There are a few parts that have been a little more gory than expected, but I just look away. The rest of the show has been really interesting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Animedragon Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 Just started Sailor Moon R. The thing that puzzles me about the first arc is, if you're a couple of aliens who've arrived on Earth to steal people's energy, why would you enrol and attend the local school where your lack of knowledge of everyday things is going to make you stand out?

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...
Ohayotaku Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 (edited) 18 hours ago, Wodahs said: and just now i have also finished Lycoris Recoil and can see my self watching this one too The underlying concept is similar to Gunslinger Girl, but that one was pretty bleak. 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...
viruxx 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. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
