Spice and Wolf is a masterpiece. Excellent adaptation of the LNs. Incredible VA work on both the Japanese and English versions. Excellent writing, and some of the scene direction during the last few episodes was stunning. Really hope this hangs around to adapt the entire story.
Picked up my tickets. Love this movie so much.
Waiting a bit to see what shows actually hold, but currently only watching Spice & Wolf and Kaiju No. 8.
Spice & Wolf is perfect and is following the LNs almost exactly from my recollection.
Unfortunately Kaiju No. 8 is boring as hell. Despite having immense power capable of one-punching kaiju into showers of blood, the MC has spent 90% of their screen time being functionally useless. It’s just such a weird way to write an MC. I get 1 or 2 episodes, but nearly half of the 12 episode run? The pacing needs to pick up 10x. I’m not kidding. We should be seeing kaiju getting bodied every episode. The slow burn it’s trying to structure itself around is not happening at all. Boooooooooo. Pick it up!
RE: Your edit. Votes are public. OP didn’t downvote you. You, however, downvoted OP when they replied to your question. No idea why you’d do that when all they did was answer your question. FWIW I upvoted your comment so it doesn’t get buried, but yeah, people shouldn’t be downvoting posts unless they’re off topic or against the rules IMO. No need to weaponize them.
Glad this is getting positive reception so far. I’ll be curious to see what gets adapted going forward given the OG anime skipped some things and slightly modified others, but so far this is really close (if not exact) to what’s in the LN.
Really good. Closer to the book as I remember it.
Also, one of the few shows I’d love to hear a dub of given how good the original dub was. I’ve been listening to the audiobooks of the LNs (which have the same VAs as the dub) and they’re great fits for Kraft and Holo.
Anyone see S1? Any good?
Tasks.org is great. I use it with a CalDAV server.
Can’t wait. Guess I never gave much thought as to what time anime airs in Japan. 1:30 in the morning? This is prime time TV!
Frieren has a good dub from the few clips I watched. Currently airing.
Haibane Renmei. Never heard the dub but loved the subbed version. Older show, but a hidden gem IMO.
Wow, was just watching clips from the first season last night. Decent show. Picked up its pace near the end.
Already bought mine! Guess they went up early here.
Mushi-Shi’s second season. Didn’t expect to hear something like this opening an anime.
Love the art. Didn’t at first, but seeing it in motion sold me.
If you want to do a bit of engineering: CalDAV supports todo lists. I forget what server software I’ve got running, but I sync the list to my android phone via DAVx5 and tick off/add items via tasks. For other platforms you can just look for CalDAV-supported programs (most email apps.)
Can’t you just put the key in? Do they even have physical keys?
New GITS?
I’m with you 100%. Hopefully more admin overreach will push users off the offending instance in question and remove it from relevancy.
According to what I’ve seen, it’s a retelling of the story, not a continuation of where the last series left off.
I just started watching the original!
