Thank you! Made the gif from the special Blue Box music video by Eve and the black haired girl is Kaoruko Waguri from The Fragrant Flower Blooms with Dignity :)
I’ve always liked how Hanako-kun looked, it’s genuinely one of the most unique and colorful art styles I’ve seen in all of the medium, but I can’t say the same when it comes to the writing of the mysteries and Hanako-kun’s backstory and whatnot. I have two volumes of the manga, wish I could’ve sold them, but I’m continuing the anime because I’m a completionist and the fact that I’m a lunatic :P
I like shoujo too even though I haven’t seen much, but the beginning of HLS was a bit melodramatic? I can’t say for sure but either way, the first episode was just kinda meh. Thank you and good luck with your priorities as well, I saw some of your notes and very impressive on what you do!
Fair enough, I’m watching less seasonals to focus more on older shows and to put less strain on myself because of school and the whatnot. I honestly don’t have it in me to care for Hanako-kun, MHM was nice, and Honey Lemon Soda just seemed too shoujo if that makes sense.
To be fair to Hanashura, it’s from the same author as Hibike! Euphonium so the writing is very reminiscent of her previous work, and this season seems kinda meh besides the previously mentioned titles.
Honestly… I actually prefer the Eternity movie over the main VE movie hah. I remember it being as emotional as the main movie but not as melodramatic from my memory, though it’s also been a while since I last watched it lol. You can find it online relatively easily if you search “violet evergarden light novel read online” since I did it randomly at school.
we all are, we must have hope for season two. Enjoy whenever you get them! Uhh it’s really early to judge but the ones I’m looking forward to the most are:
The Apothecary Diaries S2
My Happy Marriage S2
Hanashura
Link Click: Bridon Arc
and yeah that’s pretty much it lol, what about you?
