tbh, before MAL, there were a lot of shows I now like that I tended to drop. A watchlist makes it so much easier to finish a series more gradually.
I think it recommended me One Piece too. The worst part is that I tried searching online about it the bot chat thing, and it took me a bit to notice there was a post on the front. :S
Deboonked by a Re:TARD, no less. :P
Haibane I feel like you have to relax and go with the flow. Kind of the same with some of those shows like Aria. Don't drop it. Just watch it periodically when you're not too antsy. I find plenty of them gradually shift and become more engaging in time. Maybe think of it kind of like how many people will do some light novel reading to prepare for bed.
Damned April Fool's Dog!
That AI thing has potential, I think, because it seems like they're going with the weird gens and those representing altered spaces.
If Oke is sane, then I'd prefer to be insane.
Oh btw, there's this VN adaptation by Island Studio this season too: https://myanimelist.net/anime/50694/Summer_Pockets
Haven't played but fans said it's good. Hope they won't do it dirty with rush production then.
Crappa came back with an original show directed by Cowboy Bebop's director: https://myanimelist.net/anime/56038/Lazarus
Let's see how they cook this one. I'd throw the tantrum if it turns out to be like Ninja Kamui.
First reason; Arc 1 and Arc 2 is weakest arcs in entire series
Second reason; Even though Arc 3 is better than Arc 5 in the novels, Anime Adaptation of Arc 3 is weaker than Arc 5. Many worldbuilding and characterization is butchered, Sloth fight done little poorly, Capital is rushed as hell pretty much 6 Volumes rushed in 14 episodes.
Season 3 of Re:Zero is not battle shounen, as someone who watched every fucking battle shounen anime in existence Re:Zero Season 3 is not a battle shounen not even close. Only Garfiel fight was close to battle shounen in entire season.
Substancewise, you guessed it right with their adapting direction. The game features a complex flowchart and routing, and like 17 endings. It's quite hard to predict where the story is heading to, there's one bad ending that came pretty early. Hence, the idea of cramming all elements into the scope of a 12-ep anime not only ruins the story but also the character and theme. In the game, the buildup and pacing are steady, the convos slowly revolve around drama, romcom, SOL, sci-fi, myth, conspiracy, and the narrative contains tons of monologues and flashbacks. While in the anime, it's just too little, too fast, too superficial, somewhat like a summary lol.
I want to point out some points with the chara as well. The girls appear to be your average moeblob, but upon each of their routes, through exploring the drama, conflict, and their internal struggles to get over their problems, we got to understand and relate to them more. The anime just fails to make us feel such attachment. They also butchered the supporting cast, one interesting side chara was omitted, some got less screen time and dialogues.
Welp, I actually can tolerate those issues to an exent but man, they really did fuck up the best part of this story. There're many details, yet I'm just gonna go with the major points.

Oh, you saw it. :P It's a pretty shit show, but I was actually looking forward to S2. XD
I'm not sure how I feel with S2 of Re:TARD. I remember liking it for the most part but being put off by a lot of annoying things. Garfield is a very annoying character. I think Subaru is your most hated? Garfield is mine. But I guess S3 does have the reputation already as a somewhat weak season for fans just from the LN.
XD
lmao, they could have completed the western vibes by showing Subaru use his whip. I'm pretty sure the cast is very split now. Reinhard is taking the hag back. Julius got Remed (not rimmed). Most of the princess maker candidates are definitely splitting. Hopefully, Garfield will be too busy with his child bride to be around this season because I'm getting sick of him. The teaser seems to suggest Emilia and Subaru are getting some alone time, though I wonder if it will cut to other people or be more like prior seasons that focused on just Subaru.
btw, just wanted to remind you that our lord and savior, AI slop, begins airing on the 28th:
https://myanimelist.net/anime/60521/Twins_Hinahima
Trigger didn't save shit. Twins Hinahima is fucking saving anime!
lmao, Rachel made your faves? So I was anime only and dropped S2, but she was the only character I liked. I have a fondness for those kind of flawed characters who are extremely ambitious and will push MC off a cliff for her own agenda. But I remember all Tower of God commentary was REEEEE FUCK RACHEL! XD
LOL, I watched the trailer the other day and was surprised to see that the whole thing was just the "Got milk?" western film gag. I wonder if it's going to continue with being more lighthearted and minimal resets and battle shonenish. Also, if you saw last ep yet, what was with Rui's... yaoi club intro? I had looked her up on the wiki prior to that episode and only saw the loli one. I mean, Lust transforms a lot, so I think it must be similar to that, but we were introduced to her in her "avatar" form. Scared the hell out of me.
Edit: lol, cat girl jacket pander and pants tight enough for camel toe. I see she's not in heat anymore. XD
On top of that, I saw Kizumi's message about Island, with 40 hours becoming 4 hours, so I guess I'll just remove it from my list. The trailer has the standard moeblob VN shit feel too.
Come on, you'd check into rorikonfan's review of Humanzee, but that might not be the brand of just like me syndrome show he's into, so I'm sure he'll give it a pass. ;)
I've become militantly anti-short hair ever since Isin was doing his "haircut development" thing. It can work with a certain kind of stylization, but they usually go cheap on the design.
Studio: How about compressing it into a 12-episode Anime and changing the majority of the stuff from it. We don't need quality, our goal is advertisement.
lmao, yeah, who knew one of Musk's tesla batteries was stuffed inside of the bear. That explanation makes sense, as it was kind of a "freak accident" with the daughter, as you wouldn't expect her to die.
lol, sorry, they should have just stuck with the Usagi Drop formula, I guess. XD
That's a good question on the editor part. It does make you wonder sometimes. Makes me question if the LN audience doesn't mind melodrama like this or if it's not quite as bad in Japanese somehow. :\
I might have to tune in for some Humanzee reviews, but I'd rather watch Beastars than that.
Yup, the OST was fine.
