    • Azumanga Daioh: gag comedy about high school, the dub is pretty good and the humor translates well (except for Blue Three/Bruce Lee, don’t know how the dub did that)
    • Non non biyori: slice-of-life about elementary schoolers in a small town, lots of nature exploring and small adventures
    • Ika Musume: squid girl comes to the surface to take revenge on the humans who destroyed her home, but she gets caught up in human affairs instead

  • I just started Sanda this week and I still have to catch up, but it’s already my sleeper hit of the year. What science are they doing at Science Saru to make Dandadan and this back to back?

    I’m just disappointed in the AMZN subtitles and no fansubbers picked this up, so now I’m learning how to use Aegisub. For myself, initially, because it’s a bit late to retime the full season at this point.

    Though if I figure out how to do signs and karaoke, it could still be worth doing a batch release for… next Christmas? (If no better groups pick it up before then. I’m just a single amateur with a grudge against badly timed subs.)

    My only complaint about Frieren is the exam arc. Up till that point, it’s a tightly knit group of adventurers traveling with a very vague goal, it’s about their journey and their internal relationships. But the exam arc has an actual goal and introduces a lot of recurring characters, which really changes the vibe of the world. I liked it enough in the end, but I would’ve preferred more smaller arcs. On the other hand, season 2 could put the exam arc in a whole new light and make me appreciate all those characters much more when we see them again.

    I was just thinking, can I honestly think of a perfect anime? But yes, Steins;Gate, without a doubt. It is so perfect that the second season, which is an almost-perfect anime and fits neatly in the events of the first, can only bring it down in perfection.

    I recently rewatched it and there’s a lot of foreshadowing and plot points that hit harder when you see them coming.









  • It’s trash and I love it. I hope we’ll get some yuri love triangle plot, I spotted what looked like a Yuu daki in Suzu’s bed? She’s also clearly tsundere for Yuu.

    The cast reminds me a bit of

    Hitoribocchi

    but this episode didn’t immediately show the quality of jokes and pacing that made Hitori such a memorable show (that we didn’t forget about, right? It’s Hitori Bocchi, she’s the girl who sits in the corner seat. We were friends!)

    What the hell happened to Edward’s face?

    AI upscaling is the newest vector of digital rot. We already had forced compression, watermarks, people making screenshots instead of saving the picture and now there’s AI upscaling guessing at details that never existed.

    Here’s the original picture.

    Edit: Found a better resolution that wasn’t decAIed

    2007 was 18 years ago. I don’t know if your experience in starting a business and buying a house translates to the current economic situation. (Also… the regional/national situations of the other commenter, which they didn’t specify, making it very hard to write a relevant response.)
