Frohe Weihnachten!

Oh no problem I hope you fully recovered now!!

Sadly that's the truth... monthly subscriptions are just too big and they generate way more money than a single time buy, when you think about it 10 years ago it was rare but now monthly subscriptions have just become the norm and they're invasive, you sometimes even forget which ones you subscribed to.

Noit even American ones but companies in general are often really bad and greedy sadly.

I think another movie would work, the one they made where they go to London was perfect, why not making them visit Paris or Berlin or whatever capital like that.

They especially don't like "slice of life" format where you have many little stories in a single episode I think. Anyway I think I'll even read the Puniru's manga after the anime just because it's fun, even though you said that the anime made it even better.

I think the fans also got traumatized by CGI when the 2016 Berserk adaptation came out, CGI would probably have a better reputation without it lol.

That's also why I love older Deen's adaptations because you don't see the lack of budget since most anime from 15 years ago look bad anyway xD I just don't understand why they perceived and didn't stop producing the Uzumaki adaptation even though it took more than a year per episode which already sounds insane but on the top of that the quality was terrible, like how it is possible.

At least I still enjoy Blue Lock's story to be honest, no matter how the animation is.

Yes, sometimes I forgot that CloverWorks also did the S2 of Ace Attorney and that it was surprisingly better than what A-1 did with the first season lol.

Sadly there are so many series that have literally no licence and there's no way to legally watch them online, and then they wonder why people pirate things lol.

That's just horrible for both the VA and fans eh, I don't even know the point of not giving them to the VA unless they're just extremely lazy but don't they have at least a little bit of empathy when they think about the time fans took to send all of these... it's heartbreaking to be honest.

It's also a little sad because I read the K-On sequel content that wasn't adapted and it's just so short and empty, no wonder they couldn't even do anything with it, no insult to Kakifly (K-ON's mangaka) but it would sure be a forgotten series without the anime...

And I also especially love Puniru's ending visuals xD
I see for Puniru, and they said like that it makes me even more think about Urusei Yatsura especially the relationship between the two characters, I guess it must feel even more similar with the flashy colors, I'm gonna start it soon.

And you would say the original jokes are as funny as in the manga? Sounds like a passion project tbh, I wonder why it still has quite a low score :/

Yeah xD Orange has the best CGI and it even improved when you compare Houseki no Kuni to Beastars' one for example, even J.C Staff made some great full CGI anime in my opinion like it was for High Score Girl or Shinigami Bocchan, for some reason I really like full CGI anime, I don't even know why, and even when it looks poor it can be really good that's why I still loved Kemono Friends (even S2 xD). But yeah, and Tesla Note as well looked really bad.

Junji Ito is cursed and can't have a good adaptation, but it's a shame than even the adaptation made by Deen (Itou Junji: Collection and Itou Junji: Maniac) were better than how Uzumaki turned out to be :(

People believed that they were saving the budget for when the U20 match would start in Blue Lock but now that we've seen the 1st episode of the match... nothing has changed, so no hope for it to become better sadly

Yup... Promised Neverland S2 was a special case, I don't think you can make a worse sequel than that, at least it hasn't happened yet I would say, tbh I'm glad I didn't read the manga because I would be even more frustrated, and to think that after that CloverWorks kinda wasted their high potential anime original Wonder Egg Priority with the last episodes, at least after all of that they became so much better and made incredible adaptations.

I feel like it's just some phases where I get excited over something and then it just becomes a routine even when I still enjoy it but a routine can become like a chore over the years... I think it's starting to do the same for me regarding movies, I wonder if doing a longer pause would work though.

Eh, I heard about these Crunchyroll issues before, it was kinda the same on PC as well if I remember correctly and for some reason in 2018-2019 when I used it a bit it worked much better, is ADN available in Germany I don't remember? Because ADN is much better I would say, but of course Crunchyroll has most of the licences.

I'm not aware of the mail scandal what happened??

This is exactly the case for K-ON, I read the manga when I came back this summer and it was so average, it's rare that an adaptation is sooooo much better than the original manga.

Actually someone sent me Puniru's opening before and looking at it I thought I should eventually watch it as my "guilty pleasure" show of the season regarding how it's quite unknown and not really high rated but I'm just a sucker for this kind of very flashy and bright colors in an anime (kinda similar to how it was in the Urusei Yatstura remake). With you saying that regarding this show I'll definitely watch it then, it's a simple comedy one right?

Yup... sadly in Europe it's less and less popular even though here the retro gaming shop next door bought the locals from the manga shop next to it that closed, it's a rare case where older games won over mangas lol, anyway it's frustrating to see how big it can be in Japan when you're a fan and don't really have access to that in Europe :/ it's not uncommon to see a full building with several stories dedicated to games and all.
Lol so now I looked and seems like there's also a french version for the Gregory Horror Show game, but at some point they would translate so many random games it's surprising, for example I own a version of Petz Catz 2 on DS in German xD

From what I remember Mars of Destruction had the worst CGI you could ever imagine

I wouldn't even mind a 2nd season for Nobunaga sensei I would definitely watch it just to see how ridiculous it can get xD But now I'm curious regarding the manga, don't know if you'll decide to read it a bit out of curiosity but if you don't do it I will sacrifice myself and check it eventually lol.

Uzumaki adaptation's case is SO frustrating, I was waiting since 2019 to see the adaptation and I was so hyped.. the 1st episode was actually incredible and it gave so much hopes just for it to end up like that... I don't think I've ever been that much disappointed by an adaptation before... maybe if I was reading The Promised Neverland and that I was a fan it would have been the case though, also Blue Lock is suffering right now :S

But did you tell them though because the effect seems quite hardcore for an AC :S

Yeah that's the best way to do it, but at the same time I feel like the more you watch the more quickly redundant it becomes when watching a show, for some reason I feel like I'm getting the "tiktok" mind where I'm getting bored of something after only a few eps and want to watch something else, this is weird because I want to watch anime and I'm interested in new stuff that comes out but at the same time I almost need to "force" myself to watch something, and doing a 2 months break didn't change anything so I wonder if my brain is just too used to anime at this point.
Watching anime in bed is probably great but you watch them on TV right? I don't have a TV so I can't really do that and watching anime on my phone isn't as good as watching them on a big monitor sadly.

Oh I see but at the same time it's weird to me because people were extremely hyped before the show came out when they announced it and dropped the trailer, I don't know how people reacted back then for K-ON, because if I only read the manga I wouldn't care about it at all until I discover that KyoAni cooked with this one lol.

I'm sure you can find that actually but otherwise if you search on eBay you should find some, there are also some big german resellers here I think because I bought some older games and stuff and they were exported from Germany I even have some random PS2 games in german because of that lol (you can change the language fortunately because I don't speak german at all)

I used to watch the "worst" shows too back then, at this point Pupa is just funny because of how bad it is but it's only 5 min long eps so I wouldn't even count it at a real anime tbh, I also remember some very bad OVA shows like this one lol https://myanimelist.net/anime/413/Hametsu_no_Mars

Ahahahahaha Nobunaga Sensei this one I often think about it because I watched it when it was airing back then and it was so ridiculous that it ended up being very funny in a bad way the moment I especially remember is when there was this "trap" student who almost sodomized the teacher in front of everyone it didn't make sense at all, like wtf is this idea

2 whole weeks because of the AC? damn at this point you would just prefer the room to be hot than this situation...

To be honest for some people like me it's just when you end up being obsessed with your habits and it's hard to break them at some point, I don't really know how my mindset changed but I know that if I didn't quit watching anime like that I would just be burned out from them and probably end up totally stopping, I have no idea how some of these people still manage to keep up like that after more than a decade, now I'm just sick of having a schedule at all, I don't even know if I'll be watching anime weekly anymore, not even a few.

How is the manga regarding the art and pacing? Because now that I finished Shikanoko I would say it started strongly and had high potential regarding the comedy/parody aspect and the overall jokes but in the end it was repetitive so it didn't hit as much as when it began

Well if you remember this in the future you should look for Osaka's Mandarake this is where I found most of the unknown anime DVD for a very low price, the ones in Tokyo are actually much much more expensive and there's less unknown stuff for some reason, also the Surugaya in Osaka's Umeda district is really good for DVDs

Only watch Masters of Epic if you want to challenge yourself to see how bad an anime can be lmao. Also I made sure to look but I didn't find Pachislo Kizoku Gin in DVD format in Japan this one is probably extremely rare or impossible to obtain

Don't worry I had the exact same situation since I was in Japan for two months during this summer, I hope you had a nice vacation, I enjoyed mine very much even though it was exhausting and the heat didn't help lol.

At this point I'm not even following stuff weekly anymore, I only do catch up even when it comes to seasonals and I feel like it's the right answer for my case to do be burned out by the amount of show you need to follow at once.

I really like the Shikanoko, did you watch it in the end? It's not on the level of Pop Team Epic regarding how "random" it can be, I mean it's crazy in its own way but it's still around the same subject unlike Pop Team Epic which was just random in every level xD

Well when I was in Japan I found SO MANY "unknown" anime, I didn't check for yours unfortunately since I didn't remember it but to give you an idea I used to watch one show per month that had bellow 10k members on MAL, I did that for quite a while and I probably have around 20 to 30 unknown shows I watched like that (most of them are bad obviously) and I had this game in Japan where I would just hunt for these shows' DVD in 2nd hand shops and I ended up finding 80% of them, even among the most random ones possible (example : I'm still surprised I found the DVD for this atrocity https://myanimelist.net/anime/1885/Master_of_Epic__The_Animation_Age)

That's great! watched any good anime lately?

Exactly, at this point watching most of the "worth it" shows already feels like a second job, and there's no point in watching the ones that don't interest you that much, but nowadays even catching up with sequels and all is already very long (at least for me lol) I still haven't caught up with the sequels of this season (and there are so many new ones I want to watch but it's gonna be impossible) and now summer seasonals are starting soon, I won't be able to watch any of them since I will be inactive until September for traveling so I guess I'll spend my anime time catching up with this summer's sequels when I come back :( RIP all of the new stuff, but I can still watch them in the future I guess.

This is why I loved Pop Team Epic lol and S2 was definitely crazier than the 1st one IMO or because I watched it too early since I directly watched Pop Team Epic a few months after starting watching anime in 2018, I wish we would get more shows like that, I mean even if the jokes don't hit with everyone you can still respect the originality.

Don't you check second-hand shops sometimes? I don't know if it's common in Germany but here there are many stores with old DVDs and many stuff, especially anime related, so it's not rare to just search and find some of these older shows you couldn't find online, it already happened to me with many shows tbh, and it can also make you discover ones you didn't know before

I guess we need to wait because I'm sure that in the future we'll have excellent auto translators for videos with almost no mistakes.

It's especially impressive to compare the anime of some 80s - 90s Ghibli movies and see how some of them still look much better than what comes out in 2024 xD

Oh okay, definitely sounds interesting to me in this case!
Yeah I mean I download stuff too before watching them but in this case I just won't have time to do things alone so starting manga/anime will be difficult.

Great! It must be nice to have your birthday in the middle of the year, for me it's usually mixed with Christmas since it's only a few days after it

Okay. Es ist bei mir schon länger her aber es ist ärgerlich.

What, and they actually expect you guys to do good and work like you're used to do that or they simply don't care and just want to reassign some task to your group?

You're 100% right, for me it's more like it became a habit and a kind of "challenge" to never drop things but I started that when I was much younger and starting/highly enjoying anime, now my mindset is somewhat trapped to this but I don't care much anymore, I only pick things I'm almost sure to like anyway.

I have no idea what was the point to pick a manga to adapt only a few of it and do full live action original stuff for the rest, I mean from what I know it's the only anime that ever got this treatment right? I guess people who genuinely enjoyed the manga and wanted to see the anime adaptation were shocked lol.

Ahaha, well guess I need to be part of the "french who have watched Working" group at some point xD

You are speaking about this one right https://myanimelist.net/anime/3285/Himitsu_no_Akko-chan ? Did you check if it was dubbed? except if you only want to watch it subbed but I checked it and it apparently was broadcast on French TV under a different name (Caroline) and it was dubbed here

It seems to be part of the childhood of some people according to the comments, but it seems pretty underground though.

I checked for Mazica Party and it seems to be up to EP 5, at least since it's fairly recent all the raws are available, and because of its nature I think that if you upload it to YouTube to get automatic subtitles it should be perfectly watchable this way tbh.

My favorite Ghibli is still Chihiro I think, but the one from my childhood is Totoro, so many memories with this one...

You mean a real kindergartener? Or a child who's able to think like an adult like in some stories? I'm even more curious now, I will try to start it then, I'm still hesitating if I stop manga at all until September because I think that if I start a new series I won't have time to finish it before I leave abroad and I won't be able to read until I come back.

I hope the Saturday celebration was nice then!

Okay. Wo/was arbeitest du denn?

Yw! did you have a good one?

happy birthdayyyy

Gern geschehen.

Was macht das Leben?
