I gave Jujutsu Kaisen a miss as the trailer didn't entice me, but I'll give it a go. Not sure what Inuyasha sequel is. I'm watching The Day I Became a God, but I am not actively looking forward to it; it just seems typical mysterious girl shows up from nowhere (just why is this a starting point for so many anime/manga?), and does strange things. Akudama Drive was on my watchlist, but I somehow forgot about it. I watched Tonikaku Kawaii. First episode was interesting, second episode was so cringey I dropped it. It's the sort of thing only a 12 year old Japanese virgin would enjoy. Thanks for the recommendation guys.

So...I had been looking forward to the Netflix Blood of Zeus anime...and the reviews I've seen have been glowing...but I think I hated it? It's probably the most boring and pedestrian take on Greek myth I've ever seen, the MC is unbearable, and the plot is...oof. Predictable is an understatement. The music (when it isn't being shafted by poor sound mixing) and art were good enough I suppose.

I dunno, curious about other people's thoughts, especially given the reviews I've seen. As far as story and characters go I think I liked it even less than Dragon's Dogma (though I think I rate that higher than most people because I just played the game and didn't really enjoy the plot nearly as much as others seemed to). Netflix's anime division really seems to think that gore is all it takes to make a compelling "adult" anime...

Edit: Also, I thought it might be my crappy Wifi or Netflix, but this has horrible awful no good very bad framerates to the point where I wasn't sure if it was intentional or not. Especially noticeable in fight scenes.

Here is my current read on Higurashi Gou Onidamashi-hen
+ Show Spoiler +

It is likely that Takano is dead or at least out of the picture. This can be inferred from Yamainu pulling out from Irie Clinic. Also, from the lack of the gas incident at the end.Takano's motive is to prove her dad's theory that Rika is the queen carrier and to do this at the end of each arc she pulls the trigger on plan 34 and cause the Great Hinamizawa Disaster once Rika is dead.

But in this arc, we have Rika is dead and there is no Great HInamizawa Disaster.Thus, we can safely say, Takano is not involved in the murders.

This means that we have a whole new mystery to solve.

Now as to what happened to Tomitake, it's hard to say. Seeing that he disappeared with Takano I can see a couple possibilities:
1. Rika told Tomitake about Takano's plans, and convinced her to elope together. LOL.
2. Rika told Tomitake about Takano's plans, and he killed or imprisoned Takano making them both disappear as he explains his actions to his superiors.
3. A third party found out about Takano's plans and made her disappear just as she was with Tomitake.


For Rena's death, we can pretty much infer that Keiichi had L5 syndrome and was hallucinating when he got stabbed by Rena. Instead, he killed Rena after being attacked.

Now, the real question is what happened to Rika and Satoko? This one, I think we don't really have enough info at this point in time. So far all we know is that Rika and Satoko was stabbed in the neck multiple times by the same kitchen knife and were found dead a day after Rena and Keiichi incident. Note, that all it says is same kitchen knife, it doesn't say the same kitchen knife that Rena used. Which is where I think people are getting confused relating it to Rena and Keiichi's fight.

It's hard to make any guesses at this point, but I find it unlikely that Rika would just stab Satoko for no reason. Based on the manga, we can infer that Rika and Satoko were stabbed by someone else.

This is a pretty good season so far. What is everyone watching? DanMachi and Mahouka are somewhat living up to expectations although I enjoyed the tournament arc more in the latter in the first season. Majo no Tabitabi is also getting better and the last two episodes were pretty solid. Animation was really really well done during the 4th episode and pretty solid in the latest. Makes me wonder if we'll see a dark episodes like the 3rd pretty soon.

Kami-tachi ni Hirowareta Otoko is also a nice relaxing watch. It's true that our MC is OP, but you get a sense of peace watching it. I have yet to try Jujutsu Kaisen, but it's highly rated it seems. There's also that other 100-man isekai, Kimi to Boku and Noblesse which are all ok (Noblesse I have yet to watch, but the source is great).

Also, if anyone is looking for a survival/adventure/mystery anime, you should give Mujin Wakusei Survive a try. It's a fun watch though some arcs feel a bit too long and there are certain situations that felt prolonged. There is also some plot convenience here and there, but it's still pretty decent imo.

So, for the longest time, I had this rule. I wouldn't ever watch a shone anime with like those countless episodes. I just thought the animation wasn't worth it, since the animation was never as good as seasonal stuff. But over quarantine Ive watched Naruto, Bleach, and HunterXHunter. I'm glad I did. I did myself a disservice by ignoring those anime for so long. Naruto did a great job at character drama. Every character had an awesome sad backstory. Only real problem with Naruto was the power scaling got ridiculous. Like, its funny because in the original series they spent so much time talking about the inner workings of the biology of chakra, but with with Orochimaru and the Akatsuki it's all fucked. I don't want to moan about it all day, but it gets silly.

Bleach I'm still working through, just finished Soul Society arc.I'll have more thoughts on it later I think. lots of cool badass moments. Not sure if I see the depth yet.

Hunter x Hunter.... man this show hit me HARD. I was expecting a wholesome shonen anime, but its actually probably the deepest anime I've watched. Even the innocent parts that I wrote off at the beginning have a lot of depth once something clicks about the main character you see in the notorious Chimera ant arc. And the chimera ant arc.....oh lord. That is by far the best arc I've ever seen. 10/10 masterpiece. It made me feel an entire spectrum of emotions, all the characters have so much depth and their relationships are incredibly intricate. And I know Hunter X Hunter wasn't a seasonal anime, but what was most impressive about it, is that the animation is ALWAYS good. And that's kinda baffling considering there's like 140+ episodes.

I mentioned that rule I had for many years, the bridge too far for me is still One Piece, because the animation never look good My understanding is that the most recent arc they've finally increased the animation budget, so that's good. However, I am starting to read One Piece along with Amazing-Spiderman. I live in America so I expect to come out of quarantine with both those read under my belt.

We don't talk about Naruto here ... ever! But seriously, Naruto until the fillers started was great. I stopped watching it somewhere after quarter of Shippuden aired and started reading the manga. Never went back because there were way too many fillers. I'm glad you enjoyed it though and yes, power scaling was really bad in the latter half of the show.

HxH was great and I personally enjoyed the Chimera ant arc a lot. Felt like it was one of the best parts of the show although I believe that wasn't the common sentiment among the fans, but I could be wrong. Not sure we'll get any more HxH anytime soon.

IMO, while its true that an anime should have good animation, the story and characters can carry an anime really hard. Case in point is Black Clover. There have been episodes where the CGI or animation was really terrible, but overall, it's such a fun relaxing watch and the story is interesting enough. If you are willing to overlook animation (Black Clover's animation varies wildly at times), I say you give Black Clover a try. I can link you a few videos though spoilers would be a concern in that case ^^

Been watching Yashahime this season. Yeah, because of Inuyasha nostalgia.

That said, I'm liking it so far. It's a good fantasy shounen with fun characters, even if not particularly amazing story or animation.

Yeah, hop on the Jujutsu Kaisen train. I think it's worth it.

On the surface, it initially feels like fairly by the numbers shounen, and I could pick out elements that remind me of a mishmash of Demon Slayer, Naruto, and Mob Psycho. I can compare it to the Demon Slayer adaptation in that the anime so very much elevated by the quality of its direction and animation, though I think Jujutsu Kaisen has better dialogue and characters than Demon Slayer. The show can be absolutely brutal and creepy when it gets serious, but it's balanced out by the humor of well-executed lighter parts of the story that are carried by the charm and chemistry of the characters.

Also, the OP and ED are absolute bangers and among my favorite of the season.

If you have slept on those series like I did I highly recommend watching:

Fire Force

Pretty cool story and characters. Animation is brilliant, the detailed backgrounds look like from a big budget movie and not a series and the music is really good. I was truly amazed by the quality of this show.



Star Blazers: Space Battleship Yamato 2199

Remake of the old show. I'm only halfway through it and it's already 10/10 (and only getting better). Absolutely amazing. Can't wait to get to the 2202 after that.

Time is precious. Waste it wisely.

Moroha is the real main character.

But yeah, I pretty much feel the same way. No complaints, just good fun with a healthy does of nostalgia.

Fire Force is good but flawed. Some of the humor can have bad timing, and the fan service can be excessive and poorly timed as well. However, the world building is intriguing and the fights are fun, and David Productions generally did a great job with this adaptation.

Reading through Soushuu Senshinkan Gakuen Hachimyoujin. The visuals and graphics seems to be better than every other Light game (that I've played) so far. The music is amazing as usual. The characters play a fighting game in which Spinne beats Reinhard, lol.

TBF to episode 20, they did like 10 minutes a previous episode of Tamaki and a White Clad fighting. This episode, that could have been left out 100% and the story would have been fine. The best part was the animation and the darkness. Soul Eater author for you I guess.

So I went and caught up to a few anime that I had been lagging on from Summer's Season.

Re: Zero, good but I wanna wait until the second cour ends before I really say much about it. It ends right when it is REALLY getting interesting so that was kind of a bummer.

Rent A Girlfriend, much better than the premise would lead you to think. Chizuru has to be one of my favorite anime girls of all time now. I think this has been confirmed for a season 2, because I'd hate for this to be another manga bait season, I'd actually like to see more of how this story pans out.

After School Dice Club: Not normally into the whole CGDCT genre, but I am a big fan of board games and thus I easily fell into this anime and enjoyed it thoroughly. When they do go to the games I really enjoyed watching the girls learn and play and the characters themselves, while not the best characters I've ever met are nonetheless enjoyable to watch their dynamics with each other.

Misfit of Demon Academy: Enjoyed the heck out of this. For a one season burner this was satisfying from start to finish. Unlike most of these other Demon Lord style series this one was obviously just meant to be a quick 1 and done season and I don't have to sit here waiting to see how the rest of the story develops, or if the series will ever get a second season.

I've also come to really embrace the idea that I am just a binge watcher. I get so much more enjoyment out of shows binging them in a few days than having to wait week to week for another episode. I almost skipped Summer entirely this year and just worked on my back log only to watch the whole seasons in a binge and I think I enjoyed each series much more as a result.

Finally, i convinced myself to watch Golden Kamuy Season 1. As a result, i also watched Season 2 too, both within 2 days each. For me its a real gem of an anime. On the one hand i could slap myself, that i didnt watch it earlier, on the other hand i'm really thankful, that i didnt have to wait for season 2 and even for the most part of season 3 due to this fact. i would recommend it to anyone who didnt watch it yet. The characters and the story are pretty unique and almost all of the characters (also the bad guys) are likeable.

ps: you shouldnt mind the ultra-low-budget-cgi-bears of season 1 when watching it, just look out of a window when they show up so you dont get affected by them... hmmmmmm, bear brain, hinna hinna
