Holy wow… MC is hard to watch. OP is by Tokino Sora so I want it to become a hit, but I don’t know if I can warm up to that type of MC.
If my monsters are imagined, why do they trigger the motion sensor lights?

There absolutely had to be a naked kid for no plot reason at all other than to pacify the pedos. Two scenes later it’s back to fox form as if nothing ever changed. I’m so sick of this shit in anime.
How many episodes in a row was that now with just people sitting around a table talking?
I interpreted that Mutsumi sees Jiro as something akin to a replacement for her missing Dad. But the wording of this episode about responding to her feelings gives me Usagi Drop PTSD. I really enjoy this series and don’t want to live in constant fear that this turns into something like that.
I was under the impression that the yokais were only living in that village but this episode we see them everywhere. I’m not too fond of the man in black and a demon lord though. It takes away from the mystical yokai setting and brings the series into chuuni fantasy.
I found the “it got viral” shout endearing when there were barely any comments. It really shows that the girls are starting from scratch.
Okay, hear me out. I have a theory:
Zooted Akira is just 7g transformed Gawr Gura.
I don’t know if I’m a genius or if I’m slowly going mad here.
The setting has so much potential to break out of the confines of “normal” storytelling, yet you could see the culprit coming from a mile away.
Also, does anyone understand why turning young doesn’t kill her anymore? Is it because the source is no different?
I disklike plots where everything could be resolved if one person would just say what they saw or heard. A simple “Yo, I just heard them talking about how they want to assimilate us into their weird mushroom tribe” would have solved everything.
I hate it when good but naive characters get preyed upon by cults and swindlers the same way someone might hate seeing a kitten getting beaten. It makes me angry and I stop enjoying whatever I’m watching or reading. Luckily it turned out okay in the end, but I can’t say I enjoyed this episode very much at all.
Yes, but in Goblin Slayer the human victims didn’t fall in love with the goblins and had severe psychological trauma as a result of what happened to them.
Here the human girls are reduced to sex wish fulfillment for the reader: “wohoo you goblins killed my friends and abducted me, please let me ride this tasty MC dick in a orgy”. I had more respect for the show in the first episode where the first group of girls rather took poison.
Can we have a discussion going already about whether or not this is unnecessary? So far I absolutely see no need for this over the old adaptation. It doesn’t exactly makes anything better. It’s Fuits Basket all over again.
No one disagrees. Our point was that someone enjoys a parody more when they have a frame of reference of what is parodied. I mean it’s the whole point of a parody. One can enjoy OPM but if the same person had seen 500 battle shounen up to the point where they’re fed up with the same tropes, OPM is just a million times funnier than when that is just first anime.
I don’t want to shit on your favorite show here, but it’s just common sense that a parody is better if you know what is parodied.
Not what we’re talking about.
Also, Jiro is quickly becoming my favorite character (it doesn’t hurt that he looks so fluffy, lol)
For me it’s his calm voice and demeanour.
I would argue that there is a reason it has become such a huge success. It’s the vanilla flavor of isekai anime.
They don’t “need” to know the stuff they are parodying, true, but it’s a lot less funny without that frame of reference. It’s like listening to a Wierd Al song without knowledge of the original.
but to me, a human viewer, it’s somewhat disturbing however much the writer/director makes light of it.
I can’t agree more. Dropped.
I believe the best starter animes must meet some criteria:
With all those criteria listed, I believe the best show that ticks all the checkmarks is Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day.
Incredible last episode. The OST for the epic moment was the best I’ve heard this season and I give this episode a full 10/10. With the overall series getting a 9/10. I would have also loved to see a 14th episode with just comfy everything is alright vibes to cap it off.
