Ohayotaku Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 (edited) 1st ep of The Eminence in Shadow. What I’d heard about the series made it sound like a parody/satire series. So was a bit surprised at how serious it presented itself initially. Almost felt like watching a pre-Batman Bruce Wayne testing out his brutal band of vigilantism. But eventually the MC reveals his Chūnibyō aspirations before getting isekai’d by truck-kun and ended with him surrounded by his harem of kemono-mimi minions So yeah, this has the potential to be very entertaining. Hope it pulls it off. Edited October 5, 2022 by Ohayotaku 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animedragon Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 Angelic Layer. An enjoyable series and good fun to watch. it also has a good cast of characters most of whom have their own backstories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohayotaku Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 (edited) Some more first eps: Reincarnated as a Sword-too much time spent on the MC’s monologues & unfortunately he lacks the personality of Kumoku, Rimuru or Arc to make it entertaining. Hopefully the next ep will be better with the intro out of the way, but still one of the weaker premieres I’ve seen this season. Mob Psycho 100 III-the expected combination of weirdness, humor & feelz. And once again Reigen manages to come across as both a conman & genuine. How concerned should I be that just like Mob & Serizawa this week I found the client’s situation uncomfortably relatable?

Honestly wish I’d skipped GT altogether. Still a slight chance I may try to watch Picolo’s demon lord intro arc … someday.

So smart and that ending oh its something else man I would probably need to rewatch to refresh my memory before attempting the movies & Akito the Exiled. On 9/29/2022 at 5:56 PM, MarathonGuy1337 said: Continued watching Galaxy Express 999 (Around episode 30 now) This show is really depressing. It's all poverty and misery across the galaxy, great start to the Leijiverse Yeah, he tended not to portray a very bright future in most of his work. I never watched the series but the movie version & especially the original Star Blazers series (Iscandar & Comet Empire) were my introduction to anime. Both remain nostalgic & iconic to me 40 years later. Edited October 6, 2022 by Ohayotaku 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MediaConsumesMe Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 I just watched Sunny Days... Shirou is one lucky motherfucker he ends up with both Rin and Saber in this alternate ending to Unlimited Blade Works. Honestly, I'm not sure if I prefer this ending. Saber gets to remain with Shirou, but the other ending, Spoiler Has that final post credit sequence with Archer giving a final monology and then we cut to Shirou out in the desert somewhere has always been a pretty powerful ending. As I find it quite open to interpretation - Shirou is moving forward and will become a Hero of justice and we don't know whether or not he'll end up like Archer or be able to hold onto his own 'borrowed' ideals. However, there is still some hope as Archer reveals in his final line 'I was never wrong' indicating, even if Shirou becomes the Epic Spirt Emyia, that Epic Spirt was set right and now once more reaffirms the ideals that led him to that end. So, spoiler out of the way for UBW, I think both endings are really solid, Sunny Days is a more lighthearted and happy ending and the actual ending of UBW is a little more open to interpretation and also slightly more thematically matching to the overall show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lsdfairy Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 right now i just finished the new first episode of Chainsaw Man on Hulu and it was actually pretty good. The opening song really caught my eye it wasn’t one of those openings where you want to skip it and watch the episode again. it was really nice to watch and the design of just everything? love ittt. https://youtu.be/dFlDRhvM4L0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animedragon Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 I've just finished watching ef:a tale of melodies and I'd forgotten how hard the final 3 episodes are to watch. The closing title sequence for episode 10 is so simple but also so heartbreaking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MediaConsumesMe Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 I'm back on track on my first watch of Yu Yu Hakusho. I'd got distracted due to re-watch of Fate/Apocrypha, Parasyte and then got lost in a sea of anime others were showing me. But tonight I had some time to work out were I was and progress through the show some more. So I was able to finish the Saint Beast sub arc and move onto the introduction of the Toguro brothers and make it to the dark tournament. I've heard nothing but good stuff of the dark tournament arc, the previous Toguro episodes of the ghost detective arc were really, really good. So if it keeps up this is looking like a great series. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohayotaku Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 (edited) Finished Overlord IV. The overall progression of the larger story was good, but the arc concerning the conflict between the Dwarves, Quagoa & Dragons didn’t seem to fit with anything else that happened. First ep of Urusei Yatsura (2022). Don’t remember enough about the original to make a comparison but it felt pretty meh. Doubt I’ll stick with it long. First 2 eps of Akiba Maid War. Very entertaining in a tongue-in-cheek way along with a Tarantino level of violence. One of my favorite new (not sequel or continuation) series of the season along with Eminence in Shadow. Going to try yo finish Cyberpunk: Edgerunners over the weekend. Edited October 15, 2022 by Ohayotaku Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t remember enough about the original to make a comparison but it felt pretty meh. Doubt I’ll stick with it long. To be honest, the full length animated films were actually more enjoyable than the original series was; the only problem was that you had to see the pilot episode of the series where the characters are introduced in order to fully understand why everything is the way that it is in the films. After watching "Beautiful Dreamer", I expected that the series would be something more akin to "Ah! My Goddess!" - it was nothing like that; however, the author of the manga did actually base much of the stories and the characters themselves off of Japanese Folklore and Mythology, which I thought was really neat. Apparently the Oni were like the Japanese equivalents of the Giants and Ogres in many Western Traditions, although it is often translated to mean something like a bad spirit or an Imp. I'm actually disappointed that they decided to reboot the series unless they intended to use the same retro animation style from back in the VHS Era. I'm really not big into remakes as a rule. Why can't they just leave the classics alone? I know why...money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
