  • I haven’t watched it since about when this clip of the opening was first uploaded, but I recall a lot of the emotional beats getting undercut by long bits of dialogue interrupting the events of the show.

    For instance I remember some fight where it felt like every time someone started speaking all of the other characters stopped everything they were doing as if waiting for their turn to do something. Which wouldn’t have been so bad considering you don’t want the camera to miss the actiony bits but it took so much time for anyone to say their line that it was distracting.

    Again, haven’t seen it in a long time so I may be misremembering, but that was the impression I got from my initial viewing.


  • On the one hand, if they’re not getting used then it may be better to get rid of them as they’ll clog up the community with threads people have no interest in.

    On the other hand, how do we decide which ones to allow and which to filter out? If we only use shows that have previously prompted discussion then that prevents a show from being talked about if it only becomes more popular later on in a season.

    One alternative is to only have a thread per show’s season. This would greatly reduce the amount of unused clutter in this community and could be a decent stopgap until this community attracts a large enough userbase to necessitate weekly threads. The only thing I don’t like about this idea is if a season runs a pretty long episode count, it may become harder to find in the list, and if someone starts an anime partway through its season then they may have to deal with spoilers if they come here to discuss it.
