Super HxEROS Episode 1
Well cute male lead always gets me to check out an anime and super heroes, how could I not watch.
Great clothes destruction attacks hope it doesn't go away. Wish there was other male characters in the team, but oh well. One of the fem charas is one of my favorite in these types of anime so hopefully she will be fun.
Matsuouka is also doing the good work voicing all these leads this season + side characters, wow. He's great here with his little younger voice, different than his food wars and kirito one, which is great, and he even does some of the OP song, nice.

Fire Force S2 1
I'm super excited for this show to be back. Nice warm-up in the first half and the calendar stuff in the second was absolute gold. Going by the OP, it looks like we are in for quite a wild ride of a season. I just hope the Tamaki stuff is kept to an absolute minimum.
At least from the anime perspective, it would be worth watching episode 25 and the movie if you've only played the first VN. Have you seen or played 0? Both are actually worth it if you haven't. If you do watch the anime, watch 23b from the first season as a primer.

Maybe. I watched the anime before the VN and completely enjoyed both. Even on rewatch, the anime is amazing, even though it'll feel like it's flying by in comparison to the pace of the VN itself. For time, it does cut out a good chunk of the side content and most of the alternate routes and endings, but it's worth a watch if you're a fan.

JoJo Part 5 E1-21
Man, I love this. Italy is a great setting, and the gripes I had with Part 4, that it was too slice of life and the supporting cast wasnt that great are instantly fixed here. Love the whole gang, and the stakes are high. Stands are incredibly creative too, Giorno and Bucciarati stand out from the getgo. Loved how Giorno made progress with his Stand after encountering Babyface, something I missed from Josuke.
Also lol at the villain once again having a time related ability. This makes the third time in a row lmao

Yay dub.
Ideally it comes to funimation for streaming since despite what your post and the twitter post says it's not getting a physical release in the US (as far as I'm concerned as I'm not paying $100+ for persona 5 the anime lol)

Granted, I'd probably pay that much for Kaguya-sama season 1+2 with a dub, but that's obscene for P5A. Wish there was a cheaper Funimation release.
You laugh,bit there are some things in this world I would pay that much for.....*intensely stares at Rakugo Shinju's non-existent US Blu-ray*
(Persona Tax + Atlus Tax) x Aniplex Tax =

i did it for a few things myself back in the day. No regrets!
I spent $200 Aus on a complete box set of the Fruits Basket manga a number of years ago and I regret nothing.
I really want to own Kaguya as well, but alas that too will have to be an import because as much as I love Kaguya I can't justify spending $300 on 24 episodes of anime when I could instead spend half of that to get all the manga lol.But it comes with ART CARDS. Loool, that authentic JP BD pricing.

yeah lol
i was browsing artbooks last night and was like 'damn that's expensive' but man maybe i'm saving money by streaming instead of buying blu rays of bad shows lol
god i'm so brain hurt this is actually making me think getting a copy of Half Life 2's Raising the Bar long out of print artbook for $500 could be worth it. stupid brain
i somehow picked up an entire Full Metal Alchemist manga collection with a fancy box for like somewhere between AUD$150-200. so good.
It says it includes 2 specials are they different specials then?
yeah... I haven't seen a decent sale from madman since https://www.animeherald.com/2019/02/06/aniplex-purchases-madman-entertainments-anime-division/ happened.
https://www.anime-on-line.com/3118-clearance-sale at least still has some okay sales from time to time and ships to the US.

Presumably "Dark Sun" and "Stars and Ours" if that's the case.
Honestly, I'm curious as to how they take this - IIRC the manga/LN is a LOT of the MC talking to herself.
The fights are pretty unique, but the main character definitely has a 'isekai protag magic/experience system' gobbldygook combined with an LN MC taken to the extreme in terms of rambling on.
Yes. The included specials are just the two main story OVAs which are available on Crunchyroll.
The Akechi and Valentine's day OVAs were Blu-ray exclusive in Japan.
thanks for the clarification. the release of the persona 5 anime was such a mess that it's hard to keep track lol.
The best parts of P5A are the slice of life stuff which is why the Valentine's OVA was one of the best scenes from the anime.
JP blu-rays also had limited anime-exclusive soundtrack CDs. Also not available in this English release.
Aniplex really is just selling the DUB on blu-ray for $300...
Honestly probably the better way to go. I pretty much just get Funi Essential/Classics releases nowadays, with the occasional Sentai sale gets. Aniplex prices are madness. Only exceptions I've made were the Madoka movies and Bakemonogatari.
P3 movies was the best persona set aniplex did for us, still my favorite part of my collection
SAO Alicization too.
And BLue Exorcist, and DRRR...
Still waiting on a DRRR s2/3/4 collection.

I have plenty of aniplex sets, but they are all from the UK or Australia lol.
both seasons of nisekoi ran me $30 total
my Madoka movies ran me $5 each
magi both seasons ran me $40 total
I just put custom firmware on my ps3 and change the region to watch them.
Healin' Good Precure 14
Even by bland festival episode standards this was an exceptionally bland festival episode. Some decent moments with Batetemouda not wanting to be an underling, Chiyu still being the competent one, and Hinata really wanting that smartphone. That's what I call relatable. I know Nodoka is supposed to be better because she's in such a good town or whatnot, but I think she's really showing that fighting monsters weekly in life or death battles is good for ones health. At least we got some lore about the previous Cure. Now how will that come into play.

BNA: Brand New Animal
I can now say I've seen a full Studio Trigger anime series. There was some nice sakuga. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Really though, that shat the bed real hard in the last episode. As soon as
I felt like the show didn't know what it wanted to be until halfway through, Nazuna needed to be introduced sooner. Even if they had embraced the yuri potential between Nazuna and Michiru, I don't think that could have saved this for me.

Alan revealed his true form and started monologuing I said out loud, "Okay fuck this, just give me the sakuga." At least something to that effect. I also made a joke about Alan throwing an Aryan punch when he started showing his true strength, prior to his spiel about being a pureblood, which made it all the more hilarious in hindsight. Honestly did not expect them to go there.
Just finished Re: Zero S1 in preparation for S2, and gosh, Subaru feels too real, damn, his ideal of love and romance is truly from a teenager, i hate it, but it just makes sense and i loved the show because of it.
Oh come on! I was on the fence going "I could probably swing $300 for this" too.
I bet the cut a lot of the stats speak out and dumb it down (which would unfortunately kill it for me"
Just finished watching A Whisker Away. Really great feel good movie. Loved the story and it was really adorable most of the time which is something that is as good as it was due to the really beautiful and well done animation.
Highly recommend if for everybody. Especially cat lovers and people that love cute stuff.

Digimon (2020) 5
Maybe it was because I only ever watched the US release of Digimon when I was younger, but this is turning out to be far darker and far larger in scope than that ever felt. Did like the tease of all the "ultimate" transformations and a bit of a lore dump for our digidestined.

The original Adventure is very dark. Like it's a children's show that does not hold back punches with death. In that regard this show has not even made a dent in darkness. It also has a lot to say about negative traits and is not afraid to tackle the possibility of abuse in their partner setup. It probably doesn't feel as dark as it used to because Tamers completely went all in on dark and mature storyline.
Yeah I have a feeling Digimon won't quite go into the direction of Tamers again (sadly).
I guess it's dark in that sense of "stakes" , not sure how young me would take it. What I mean by dark is deeply personal occurrences to the children that a young viewer would need to internalize: what does it mean that a character is gone forever, why did agumon evolve into a monster? Why is there a tension in the lives of Matt and TK? Things that the viewer (a child) has to process when they happen to their stand in. Otherwise the big bad is just a big bad, I would imagine.
