Nice work as always.

The Girls und Panzer examples especially amuse me because I like the idea that this ultra-rich Japanese school loves Italy so much that they decided to build a full-scale reproduction of Rome on their giant ship.

Bunny Girl Senpai 07

man the Clever LN Dialogue really makes the mc a huge creeper, pretty much every scene he talks to a girl he makes some kind of sexual comment about them. With Ararararagi/Monogatari it's at least honest and consistent with the self-indulgent nisio hyperreality he exists in.

Golden Wind 07

wow they really went above and beyond with the dance scene huh, amazing.

GoGo Episode 7:

So that is what a Jojo interpretation of an ecstasy trip looks like. Also, casing the joint before a job is like gooning 101, I do not have confidence in this crew's ability to rise through any sort of ranks.

So Sentai apparently got Shingeki no Bahamut: Manaria Friends, and I think that's great.

Means less people spreading dragon love.

Something that has no place in this world.

Is this the first time we've seen a stand eat regular food? Also, man that dance scene was great.

I have nothing to really add but I feel I need to make an appearance every once in a while. I'll just leave something and be gone again.

That dance scene was just the thing I needed today. I really hope there's more to come. Sex Pistols is my new favorite stand.

Production on that sister anime still good then:


https://soranews24.com/2018/11/17/l...s-hidden-cry-for-help-in-closing-credits/amp/

During the credits of the most recent My Sister, My Writer episode, which aired on Wednesday, viewers spotted an unusual name in the credits. As underlined in the above tweet, one of the animators is listed in Japanese as 正直困太, but that's not really a name.

The first two kanji characters, 正直, are actually a regular Japanese vocabulary word, read shojiki and meaning "honestly" or "truly." The remaining kanji, 困太, aren't a name either, nor are they a vocabulary word, but combined as they are they'd be pronounced komata, which is just a slight modification of komatta, which means "to be in a difficult situation."

In other words, the credits for My Sister, My Writer's newest episode contain the message "We're in serious trouble."
 
Day 1 of AnimeNYC was pretty good despite the weird start with the line up in the cold before properly letting us in at 10:30 (Not 10)
I'll do a long post after the weekend as wifi at the convention is trash (free wifi that is) and post some of my pics.
The highlight of the day was the HIDIVE Presents: LGBTQ+ Representation in Anime where David Wald talks about he and his team work to best represent queer characters in show from translation to bringing in queer voice actors.

There is no word to describe like this.

Behold!

Best stand makes it's debut and the best side character in part 5 has his time to shine!

As said in the other thread, the dance scene is perfection and it far surpassed the manga version.

Zombieland Saga 07

7 episodes in and i still haven't dropped out cause of idol songs, that's quite the accomplishment.
I always get at least a few solid laugh per episode. I also like how the characters (well, Junko, Ai and Saki) develops.

Still, how come nobody's recognizing these girls? Family? Friends? Ai's former band members who are at the same fucking event? I always thought the journalist was going to be the one noticing it but no, he's just a fan now.

doesnt really seem like the most optimal commercial to get someone interested in this.

I mean yeah they could have edited it better but honestly i prefer this than any PV that completely spoils what the show is all about.

Been binging a bit the past couple of days. Went through Nichibro and Anohana, both which were pretty good. But the real star here is Le Portrait de Petite Cossette. Hoo boy, was not expecting that kind of ride. Absolutely wonderful little show.

Filler episode and kinda dumb. On the positive side, it does spend more time showing Seth, Doc, and Mélie interacting with each other before leaving on their first adventure, which isn't a bad thing. The episode also had a couple of good reaction faces.

Girl in the Twilight - 07

this is a bad show, also the most ugly and stupidest thing that I see this season.

Will continue to watch.

Well, I love Nichijou so I thought I'd try this. This seems to have aged...poorly. Also, why is it rated MA?

sentai started their black friday sale on their store.
lots of really good prices on things. Tons of series down to $10.
Hgnn, some great prices, but unfortunately it's Sentai. I can't stand their releases (blind bought Kids on the Slope and Penguindrum from them before - two great series stuck with their terrible dubs and dub scripts for the subs).
But the real star here is Le Portrait de Petite Cossette. Hoo boy, was not expecting that kind of ride. Absolutely wonderful little show.
Please direct more Shinbo. I miss you :(
