Last completed anime

My favorite waifus

I can talk philosophical and try to analyze writing all I want. I'm still a freaking weeb and I am not denying it.

My favorite video games

I think 13 Sentinals is mostly a visual novel, but I've played like 3 VNs so I don't think it makes sense to put it in a different category for now.

Welp, Dandadan just locked in my episode of the year!

I was enjoying the show well enough, but holy shit that masterpiece was so above and beyond anything else from the rest of the show, or my expectations. I did not expect to cry today, what the hell.
I actually had a very similar reaction! Prior to this episode, my score had been hovering around a mid-to-high 6, but now I'm gonna have lots to question lol. I was not expecting this show to have an episode with that kind of direction AT ALL. I hope it keeps carrying this momentum, it could be really good.

I'm not 100% sure if I would call it my favorite episode of the year, but it's definitely on that level and it's at least in my top 3.
k0rvus Nov 13, 10:18 AM
Bad shows and good shows are plenty, but the kind of trash that leaves a real impression and is entertaining for all the wrong reasons is exceptionally rare imo.
No exactly, that's why I stuck it out with that series until the end. I remember it wayyyy more than some random drama or romance that I've given a 5 like shikimori's not just a cutie.

That's why I created an additional end-of-year award for the "best" so bad that it's good anime for my yearly list. Sadly, last year didn't have any and this year hasn't had any either... I do still need to watch the 2nd season of Tomozaki for that, but I have a feeling it won't be as cringe and ironically funny as the first season.
k0rvus Nov 11, 7:54 PM
I think the ending is always the most important section when it comes to the quality of a story. Not that it's a make or break, but it holds more weight than other sections.
Yeah, that's the hard part for me. Obviously the ending is the most important aspect to hit on (well, for most series, not as much for comedies or shows that aren't story-centric) and I'm definitely going to dock my score for an exceptionally bad ending.

But at the same time, it is SO HARD for me to suddenly score a series that I have held in such a high regard for so long, below or even with something that is consistently a step worse. It just feels wrong... even if it isn't.

Long series that have drastic shifts in quality are just so hard lol. Domestic Girlfriend's manga was the first one I ever really struggled with.
  • The first quarter (what's covered in the anime) was pretty bad and I viewed it as 4/10.
  • Then, the middle half of the series was surprisingly really good, or at least I perceived it as such at the time when I was younger and rated it as 8/10. I thought it was playing out as a much more realistic, down-to-earth romance and drama that actually explored its themes and characters in depth.
  • Finally, the last quarter and ESPECIALLY the ending are famously an absolute trainwreck, with some of the worst content I have ever consumed and maybe the worst ending I've ever seen as the cherry on top.
That one was difficult for me, lol, I ended up just scoring it as 4/10.

I thought the reveal of what was going on paprika was incredibly generic. It wasn't even "bad" but just from being mid alone, it took away so much.
Honestly, that right there is why I had such difficulty scoring Paprika... I was torn between the same ratings as you - high 7 and low 8 - and didn't know which one to actually select for MAL. I still haven't scored it, I've been planning on a re-watch to score it similarly to what I'm doing for Tatami Galaxy.
k0rvus Nov 9, 6:10 PM
Facing a dilemma... What would you rate a long series that is very consistently a high 7 - low 8 for its first ~80-85%, closer to a 6 for the last ~15-20%, then has a 2/10 ending?
k0rvus Oct 21, 3:22 PM
Honestly, beyond the poster i don't even know what this one is. I've only played 13 sentinals, and persona 4 from them. I also watched a let's play of the original Cathrene on YouTube like 6 years ago, but that's about it.
Ohhh okay. It is basically another Persona game honestly, it has slightly different battle/archetype mechanics but that's it. It's set in a high fantasy setting where a noble puts the prince under a coma spell and 8 years later kills the king and attempts to take the throne while you work to thwart him. I have found it extremely good so far; the setting is awesome, the characters are just as good as any Persona game's, and it even has more iconic music composed by Shogi Meguro (the composer of Persona 3-5 and Catherine).

Until Metaphor, Catherine was actually the only non-Persona Atlus game I had played, and it's one of my favorite games ever. I still play it here and there to this day, I'm a speedrunner of its randomized stages and I used to hold a couple of world records in it.
k0rvus Oct 20, 7:29 AM
as weird as this probably is, for some reason I basically never recognize Japanese VAs. But there are exceptions, and Mamoru Miyano is actually one of them lol
Oh I am absolutely the same. I do not know any of the other VAs for the project by name, I just looked at their past work and they all seemed incredibly talented - virtually every single one has at least one very high-profile role. We're the same though where like Mamoru Miyano is one of my few exceptions, and he is by far my favorite voice actor for his roles as Light and Okabe (I really loved him in Uramichi-oniisan too! And a couple of his songs are super randomly bangers, he is so ridiculously talented).

I'm at the "this will probably slap so I'm not going to watch trailers anymore" point with this one.
I should probably do the same at this point honestly. I just keep getting further blown away every time new details relating to people working on the project are released because it just seems so tailored towards me. It's my most anticipated upcoming anime by a pretty wide margin. Beastars final season, the Madoka Magica movie, and maybe To Be Hero X (just because its trailer slapped) are the only other ones that might come close for me

Side note, since I know we were talking about Atlus, have you been playing Metaphor: ReFantazio?
k0rvus Oct 19, 8:31 AM
Did you see the new VAs that just got revealed for Lazarus? It's so insanely stacked - including my favorite Mamoru Miyano as the MC. Every time something new gets announced about this series I somehow get even more hyped.
k0rvus Oct 12, 8:06 AM
second Atlus game (the first was 13 sentinals, which is one of my all time favourite things).
I bought that game a long time ago and it's been one of the top games on my backlog this entire time. You should pitch me on why I should play it soon.

It's a really, REALLY weird movie. I think it's best to watch it completely blind because of how absolutely unhinged and bonkers it is, but the basic premise is:
Hmmmm if you think it's best to watch blind then I'll avoid reading your premise and just do that. Hopefully I'll actually remember to lmao, I'll try to this week
literaturenerd Oct 9, 7:45 PM
The Substance looks amazing! I need to watch that and Rebellion soon! Also I’ll let you know my final thoughts on Sea of Stars once I finish it. It’s definitely worth getting at its current price though. I’ll spoil that right now.
literaturenerd Oct 9, 2:37 PM
Persona 4 is spectacular! I've played 4 and 5 and love both of them. I also REALLY enjoyed 13 Sentinels. I found a list of all the science fiction the writer listed as inspirations and it's wild. A mishmash of old and new, Japanese, American, Soviet, Highbrow and lowbrow. There's an arthouse film like Solaris and then Sukeban Decca. The fact a story with that level of narrative convolution and 13 POV characters shifting back and forth in perspective across time and space made ANY sense was honestly a miracle. I'm currently playing Sea of Stars, which is a cozy little game but NOT as well written as 13 Sentinels.

I'll have to check out S2 of Oshi. I've heard good things. Lately I've been wrapping up Apothecary Diary and starting Cutey Honey F with my girlfriend. I also rewatched Madoka Magica the other week, which I liked a lot better the second time.

I've not heard of "the Substance". Is it related to "The Stuff"?
k0rvus Oct 8, 12:57 PM
They haven't put it in cinemas here in Australia. At least not yet.
Damn, that's really unlucky. It seems like the movie has had a super limited international release for some reason, even in the US. In my state, it was only being shown at AMC theaters once a day for 4 days (Friday release through yesterday). All the theaters played it at the same time too. It's so insane lol, I wanted to go with one of my friends but he couldn't make any of their super limited times. I'm really glad I was able to make it out for the last showing.

basically burnt 2-3 weeks playing persona 4 golden 24/7.
That's just real. When I first played p5 royal I played I think 205 hours in an 18 day span.

For some reason, I've never played more than the first dungeon of persona 4 golden though... I think I got really burnt out at the time because 1. I played right after P5R, and 2. more annoyingly, I bought a PS Vita just to play, then found out I had to get a memory card too which took 2 weeks to ship... 3 days before my memory card arrived it randomly got leaked that it was spontaneously releasing on steam in a few days and I just felt so defeated before even playing lmao

Holy moly did this season of oshi no ko COOK. The directing was godly, probably the best we're going to get all year
I really gotta watch the rest of it then, just so I can make a fully educated pick for my best director of the year award (although, I'm not sure if I even want to pick out my anime awards for this year because I'm really not a fan of the year like I told you). As of now my pick for best director would be for Jellyfish Can't Swim in the Night, Look Back, or maybeeee the Haikyuu movie just for that Kenma POV shot at the end.

I think Look Back would be my anime of the year now if you wanna count it.

I need to watch some trashy dumpster fire before becoming completely spoiled lol
Watch Thankskilling

Also what's The Substance about?
k0rvus Oct 8, 10:32 AM
Did you get a chance to see Look Back in theaters? I saw it last night and it was seriously so good; every single box I was hoping for was checked and they even did some cute comedic things like animating the little 4-panel comics the girls drew as kids. I think what blew me away the most was how closely the art resembled Fujimoto's style (like how his faces look different than any other mangaka's), in particular the main character Fujino. It was like seeing the manga come to life.
k0rvus Sep 9, 11:25 AM
holy moly I had no idea this was a thing that existed. I'm hyped!

I was shocked too! Every few months I've been checking the pages of creators whose next work I'm greatly looking forward to (Shingo Natsume, Oddtaxi's creator and director, etc.) and it finally paid off. It's pretty crazy that the duo is going to keep working together, I was anticipating their future works separately and now I can't wait. I hope they keep that up in the future too, assuming that Housenka matches or exceeds my expectations.

there is still a shot where she reaches into the sky to get the light.

I don't know why I failed to recognize that this was also the first shot following the rain subsiding. I think the use of weather in that last episode is one of those symbols that has multiple, layered interpretations and meanings behind it. Like you said, there isn't one "correct" answer to it. The only correct answer is that Sonny Boy is an all-timer.
k0rvus Sep 2, 10:51 PM
Did you see the listing/announcement for a new anime film that has the same original creator AND director duo as Odd Taxi? It's called Housenka. I can't believe those two are already going to work together again, this will be peak.
literaturenerd Aug 31, 7:31 PM
Btw, I’ve started 13 Sentinels and it’s really good so far! I’m very excited to see where this game goes!
