Not seeing anything worth wasting my time on. Still lots of good old shows I haven't seen.

I don't like watching shows as they air, I can't stand the wait.

>>350 It's a bit out dated. Why watch episode by epoisode when you can watch the whole thing and if something isn't out or finished yet you can just watch something else that is complete.

Re Zero 2, Deca-Dence, and The God of High School. Overall the summer season looks really underwhelming so I think I will focus more on completing shows in my backlog and grinding FPS.

Re:Zero S2, Oregairu S3, SAO Alicization: War of the Underworld Part 2 (even though I know I'm gonna hate it), Kanojo Okarishimasu, Uzaki-chan wa Asobitai, Monster Musume no Oisha-san, Umayon, and maybe Dokyuu Hentai HxEros, Lapis Re:LiGHTs, and Koi to Producer. That's just for shows this season though.

>>1403 >Dokyuu Hentai HxEros, I swear that name is a ripoff of DxD

What is with every anime having an Re: attached to it?

I wanna watch Monster Musume no Oishasan It sounds great.

>>1405 It means that they are for re:tards.

Re:zero's sequel came out yesterday and I didn't even notice. Been waiting for this for 4 years.

>>1407 Fuck my sides have reached orbit

>>351 >you can just watch something else that is complete. Its fun to keep up and have some show to look out to tbh. But there isnt a whole lot I still have to watch, ive seen most of the "best" anime that I am interested in.

>>1404 HxEros is more fun imo, it doesn't take itself too seriously, unlike most seasons of DxD at this point.

>>1872 >DxD >taking itself seriously >most seasons LOL what are you on about?

>>1407 Accurate.

There aren't many shows this season. I guess that's because covid fucked up the studios' schedules?

>>1892 Yep... though frankly I think the Mngakas and animators are finally getting some rest.

How was Brand New Animal for anyone who watched it? Was it any good?

I'm looking forward to the release of Cyberpunk Edgerunners >>>/hobby/13469

>>348 Monster Doctor looks good, I'm just going to wait until enough episodes are released to watch it casually.

I've been watching the new series of Snafu and I'm amazed they managed to make it even more ridiculously melodramtic than the last series, I wouldn't be surprised if Yukino gets hit by a car and dies.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WWJRUYE9qiE What is this anime in video related?

>>1896 I think the mangakas are just as overworked as ever.

Is Akame ga kill worth watching/reading?

>>2342 Yes unironically one of the most redpilled anime

I'm watching the second season of RE;Zero out of sheer morbid curiosity. The new season has intriguing ideas but so much padding that it's like the writers were struggling to fill out the episodes (or the LN) and so the put in tons of pauses and excessive beating around the bush. The excessive moe aesthetic of the girls also make it hard to feel much. Even Elfen LIed's blood pinatas were more impactful.

>>2367 Ok, thanks. I've been reading a few fanfic crossovers and liking what I saw, but I kept hearing that it's "fascist propaganda" and other rubbish.

>>2334 I'd say it's Nihon Chinbotsu:2020. Haven't seen it. >>2342 It's mediocre at best, what an absolute edgefest. The ending sucks and Esdeath is a bad character.

Where can I read the RE:Zero LNs translated. translationchicken is really awkward and disorganizaed, surely there's a wiki archive like for DxD?!

>>3106 Speaking of DxD, Season 5 is coming out finally https://tecake.com/news/entertainment/highschool-dxd-season-5-release-date-plot-cast-and-characters-297917.html Also unlike other LN based anime DxD has an established fan-translation wiki for the LNs https://occult-research.club/project/index.php?title=High_School_DxD

>>2655 Episode 37's 2nd trial where the "other worlds" Subaru died in before are shown in the aftermath of his murders/suicides. It was something I'd thought about for many years when this anime started airing.

>>1403 Judging from these edgy AF AMVs, Alicization took SAO and just made it a bloody mess... anime wise. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DEB03-C2I20 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sword_Art_Online:_Alicization

> Shortly after the Tokyo Olympics in 2020, a major earthquake hits Japan. in a few years only one of those would be an alt history

>>3418 Referring to...?

>>2655 >The new season has intriguing ideas but so much padding that it's like the writers were struggling to fill out the episodes (or the LN) and so the put in tons of pauses and excessive beating around the bush. White fox decided to pad this arc for some reason, otherwise the arc is supposed to be short in the LN from what people were saying. It's weird too because re:zero has a fuck ton of material, so it's not like they were starving for for shit to adapt.

>>3484 >re:zero has a fuck ton of material, so it's not like they were starving for for shit to adapt. I think it's because the manga can't keep up and the producers want to milk the fuck out of it.

>>2655 >The new season has intriguing ideas but so much padding Lol what, they cut up a lot of stuff from the LN, which in turn cut up a lot from the WN. I'm surprised the adaptation is doing so well when so much is butchered or skipped.

>>3512 Wht I mean is there is long moments of panning shots and emotional faces with very little happening being drawn out. >cut much of the LN not exactly a good thing here

>>348 haven't watched anime since 2016, anything good that i missed? i fuck with SoL shit if that helps

>>3523 - Welcome to Demon School Iruma - Goblin Slayer - Shiiton Gakuen (Shitton Acadmy) - Overly Cautious Hero - SSSS.Gridman - Lupin the Third CG movie - Konosuba Season 2 and the Konosuba movie a couple others that I can't think off the top of my head... its been 4 years

>>3524 that's more than enough, thx anon

>>3521 I didn't mean it as a good thing at all.

>>3523 Some others - Reborn as a Slime - Highschool DxD Season 4 - Alita Battle Angel movie - One Punch Man Season 2 - Mars Daybreak (not post-2016, but rather obscure)

>>348 Ok someone tell me where I can read the translated LNs for RE;Zero, surely there is some wiki archive for fan-translations like Konosuba, SAO and DxD right?

So Episode 38 came out and now we wait until Jan 2021 for the new set of episodes... Holy fuck this was a trip of interesting self-reflection and inane moe-shit. The creator of RE;Zero is an idiot savant IMO

Best.

Rewatched all of SAO abridged after Episode 15 came out and regret none of it. That and DBZ abridged are some of the best fanworks out there. Honestly watching the real SAO makes it pale in comparison. Sure Alicization goes hardcore gory and death-filled... but that's nothing to the unique character that is Abridged Kirito. I want more abridged.

>>3596 dbz abridged is mega cringe

>>3601 You're cringe

>>3602 So?

>>3606 So your opinion is shit :-P

Nakitai Watashi wa Neko wo Kaburu (泣きたい私は猫をかぶる, lit. "Wanting to Cry, I Pretend to Be a Cat Has anyone else watched this movie? I thought the first half was fun wish-fullfilment, and her personality was a natural cat, and she used it to get closer to thr boy she liked. But I didn't like the drama or action when she was seemingly permanently trapped as a cat and had to visit the cat city. It was too cartoony and the ending wasn't as satisfying as it could have been, and felt rushed. You didn't even get good romance at the ending.

I'm watching a lot this season actually : >jujutsu kaisen >Noblesse >Kamisama ni Natta hi >Majo no Tabitabi >Adachi to Shimamura >Yuukoku no Moriarty >Ikebukuro West Gate Park >Assault Lily >Munou na Nana >Hypnosis Mic >Dragon Quest: Dai no Daibouken >Magatsu Wahrheit

Is Rent-a-Grilfriend (Kanojo, Okarishimasu) any good? The story sounds pretty funny from the summaries so I was considering watching it.

>>4165 Then watch it and form your own opinion.

>>4248 >Hey guys this anime I heard of sounds interesting but I don't wanna waste time with garbage, can anyone tell me if its good!? <Hurr just watch it, we're not going to engage you in convo. Fuck off sagefag

>>4165 I haven't finished it, but what I've seen was pretty good. It's kind of hard to watch because the MC is incredibly awkward and dumb when it comes to women and relationships.

>>4271 Got it. I'm just looking to casually pass the time, so some tropey dumb MC is fine. Thanks

>>3215 >>3596 >SAO abridged has a Russian dub being mad: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=roXJLzBWS40 может кто ещё не знает, есть вебка, где он на всех женился) Данная страница содержит в себе неканоничный финал арки "Алисизация", написанный автором SAO Кавахарой-сенсеем. Он преисполнен женскими персонажами и не только... There is but one ultimate way Предисловие Эта небольшая история содержит много информации, которая ещё не публиковалась в Dengeki Bunko. Так что будьте аккуратней со спойлерами. Представленная работа была завершена в предрассветный час между 2 и 5 утра (смеётся). Речь пойдёт о… как обычно Кирито-ши, Асуне-сан, Лифе-сан, Лизбет-сан, Силике-сан, Синон-сан, Юи-сан и Алисе-сан. Ну, об Алисе не “как обычно”… В SAO, с развитием сюжета, растёт и количество героинь, но структура истории не даёт протагонисту Кирито-ши отыскать чёткий ответ. Так что если я устану искать выход из данной ситуации, то я сделаю его в подобной форме. Вот о чём я думал, пока писал эту небольшую историю. Перечитывая скрипт… меня гложет ощущение, что он в некотором смысле ужасен. Но, тем не менее, я не могу прекратить думать, что в этом была вся суть серии SAO (смеётся) В веб версии Алисизации было представлено «Субъективное ускорение времени», эту идею я позже использовал в серии «Accel World». Протагонист Харуюки-кун так же окружён постоянно растущим числом девушек, но имеет отличную от Кирито-ши личность, поэтому в разных ситуациях он приходит к другим заключениям. С нетерпением жду продолжения работы над этой серией. Продолжение тут: http://ru.sword-art-online.wikia.com/wiki/There_is_but_one_ultimate_way

>>4165 >>4271 Some "leftist" youtuber made a video on it where they cry about how it 'glorifies' capitalism... by depicting how alienating it is that men are desperate for relations enough to pay money. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=biRsiZIsbAI

>>4825 >>4165 >>4271 So I decided to watch the anime after all and I have to say that while not total waste of time, with some interesting ideas and twists, some of it gets tiresome similar to many harem anime. By episode 9 this nigga has Ruka literally ready to go all the way and who genuinely is into him, yet he just blue balls himself for some fucking reason, and Mizuhara, while a new twist on Tsundere, is still a Tsun and therefore a heck of a lot of trouble, that for a dude like the MC, is not going to work. They keep unnecessarily dragging this out and the manga keeps going. This is why harem anime is something I both love and hate, generic ones are boring, but occasionally you'll get one that does the tropes of haremlife in a new way or subverts them or just plausibly builds up the harem. This gets the subverting tropes part right, but then fails to capitalize on the harem part that it's clearly going for. Fuck, if they didn't want to abandon the whole "fake relationship for grandmas" they could just have hi go with him having 2 consenting girlfriends Ta-da! Ugh I'm thinking about this too much... TL:DR: Good ideas and concept but some poor dragged out execution.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yashahime:_Princess_Half-Demon So anyone excited that it's airing? I have a feeling that, unlike Boruto, they can pull this sequel off.

>>4905 What the fuck, is Takahashi involved in this? Can't anything just rest in peace? I actually appreciated the closure of Inuyasha's ending.

>>4905 It's a little bit like Kyokai no Rinne https://kyokainorinne.fandom.com/wiki/Ky%C5%8Dkai_no_Rinne_Wiki Honestly hope to see some cameons of Inuyasha and the rest of the old gang.

>>4910 Well to be honest, so far it doesn't tamper with Inuyasha's ending at all. It pretty smoothly transitions to the next generation without backtracking into the prior series outside of being a spinoff.

These animes sure are popular with the teens. It's all that queer Oriental porno again. They should be out at the ball field instead.

>>4946 I don't disagree with all of this, but TBH not all of it is as queer as you make it out to be. Fate/Stay Night are utter faggots, but stuff like DxD or Ghibli are pretty straight or kino.

>>348 >Monster musume no oishasan High hopes for an interesting fantasy monster girl story dashed on more haremshit. It's not that poorly done, but it was disappointing.

Someone sauce me where I can read Hardboiled Cop and Dolphin AND Kaiju No 8

>>4973 don't know about Hardboiled Cop and Dolphin, but Kaiju No 8 is on mangapanda

>>4963 >interesting fantasy monster girl story dashed on more haremshit HAHAHAHAHH

>>4994 Hardly funny TBH, but it seems you revel in disappointment.

His Dark Materials is getting Netflixed

>>4963 Fuck corporate types and fuck the latest generations of writers that grew up with all the marketing and propaganda added to anime by these same corporate types.

>>5213 Are you sure you're responding to the right post?

Kodachi is stepping down from Boruto after Chapter 52 comes out with Kishimoto coming back. Too bad it's far too late for Kishi to save the story.

>>3524 Iruma is the gift that keeps on giving.

>>4929 Is that list full of random series or stuff you genuinely want to see?
