I've seen plenty of genderswap fanart for Todoroki Shoto before, but it's still weird to see some turn up here.

Yikes just checking MAL real quick, my PTW list for October is ridiculous even incomplete
Blue lock, Iruma, obnoxious people(UY), reincarnated as a sword, villainess takes the final boss, Gundam, I Somehow Became Stronger by Raising Farming-Related Skills, the eminmence in the shadows, beast tamer kicked from an s class party discovers he can contract demihumans, and probably some more. There's a show with a Tanooki girl and a depressed Rakugo lady I just found that looks fun

Yeah those reddit post are making me kinda paranoid but I am hoping it is just some edge posts to create that reaction.
And yeah fully expecting another cour!

Yeah this has to be a 2 cour with next cour opening with the doubles tournament most likely, a transition arc and then some sort of solo/semi pro arc. The latter is implied by the adult golfer in the opening. Plus we still haven't seen half the characters in the opening and still have some standing mysteries like Eve's past(I'm still wondering if Leo is her father)
Also Eve the lady killer, and Ichina proving her worth as a caddy and getting excepted. Great episode. Pretty sure this school arc still has a training episode and a challenge match left for this cour.

Birdie Wing is a Gundam fans dream. Her teacher being coached by Char and her soon to be coach being voiced by Amuro is amazing. Whoever at Sunrise devised this show and casting needs a raise.
Chainsaw Man, JJK S2, Vinland S2, AoT Final Season Part II, and Hell's Paradise: Jigokuraku. MAPPA train seems never ending...

And I would trade all of it for YoI S2 and better working conditions.
But will they use the pillows song for the opening?. Also I expect decent framing even if the action is a little rough, it's the Thermae Roma Nova team
I was hoping that it has a better story than Bubble, but then I saw that the writer is Tow Ubukata...
Man Netflix jail sucks but the stuff they fund is always kinda cool. I'll probably check all of these out

Guess that's the end of the beach arc. Of all the things to be upset at Keitaro for it's funny that Naru fixated on that.

Damn, I thought there was going to beat legitimate crazy twist where the automaton was the girl Keitaro made a promise with. But nope, looks like it's still Otohime.

Otohime is the best character on this show.

Omg girl, you love him stop pretending you don't.

Some anime thoughts this morning.
1) now that I'm getting back into anime after my lengthy absence, I feel like getting blurays of my favourite shows, but I'm realising many of them aren't in my region. I'm gonna have to get a damn multi region player like in the old days. :| I don't want to bite just yet, in this economy, but man what a hassle. (also LOTGH is still not available for us peasants, just....why)
2) I realised MAL has a way to browse anime releases by seasons, so I took a trip down memory lane last night browsing anime seasons 2000 to 2009, when I was most active. This is the golden age for me, nothing but banger after banger after banger.
Just insane quality released every season. Weirdly, after 2009 I notice the diversity in characters and stories begins to plummet. The period between 2009 and 2014 in particular looks abysmal, the anime covers all have cutesy faces and schoolkids, barely an adult in sight. Things start to perk up again with the odd release, Steins Gate here, Attack on Titan there, but I can't see the consistent diversity of 2000-2009 anymore.
3) The main reason I actually went down this rabbit hole of seasons and bluray players is that I randomly stumbled onto the soundtrack on spotify, of an anime I enjoyed back in the day: Noir.
This soundtrack rivals the best of Yoko Kanno, it's stunning. Damn bluray isn't available in region B though. Grr...gonna have to stream it for a rewatch in the mean time.

Wow, have heard good things about this and it is from the Kaguya guy.
No doubt it will get to haunt SolidSnakeBoy during AOTY seasons.
It's also from the Scum's Wish creator (it's a joint project), and I'm going to tell you right now if you go in expecting something like Kaguya you are going to leave very very confused.
Oshi No Ko is far more story based and more of a (I'm spoilering this because it's best to just go in blind and enjoy the ride)revenge character drama
Oshi No Ko is a joint project between the creator of Kaguya (story) and creator of Scum's Wish (Art)
It's got one hell of a ride for an introduction, and I always found it strange with the talent behind it and it being a quality series that it took so long to get picked up in english for release.
Hell yeah, this has been one of my absolute favourite ongoings since it started; poised to be one of the big ones. Gonna be unexpectedly dark for the people coming from only Kaguya.
You will like this. I didn't know your tastes pre spy but now that I am more familiar I am confident you will like this and Chainsaw
Doga Kobo is definitely not the studio I would've expected here. It'll be interesting to see how they adapt it.
Tiger & Bunny 2 11
Oh god, it's all collapsing, what a tragedy (this is delicious). I was hoping Barnaby's return would be more dramatic and in-action, but I suppose this will do. I loved the oppressive vibes when the twins were wrecking shit up.
Excited to see how the gang is going to get out of this one.

This was raw as fuck. Brought back some very unpleasant memories from school, but maybe it also helped me process them in some way. Great episode overall, and brilliantly nuanced characterisations.

It's a fantastic manga about the behind the scenes of the child celebrity life with a heavy dose of dramedy. There is some weird stuff, sure, but it works well in context.
I was a bit weirded out in the beginning but once it gets your hooks in you, it's good. And not just in a Boy's Abyss kind of way.
It's written by the author of Kaguya-sama.
