Happy Birthday Bro ..

May God Bless You ..😊😊

Thanks for the Pseudo Harem review. I found it especially helpful because you cover the one thing I'm most concerned about, and that's the detached, webcomic feel that makes the format such a mess with an anime.

However, there is one point I must STRONGLY disagree with, and that is the point that there's not much for Rin to see in Eiji. I think she has ever reason to have an instant crush on him.

Eiji's first interaction with Rin was to prank her with pretending to be the only member of the drama club, like in The Beginning of a Story, which is, I presume, a fictional piece from this universe. (Also the title of the first episode.) He later states this was his exact intent. It's obvious they are on the same wavelength when it comes to entertainment. Let's say it's from her favorite movie. The fact he's referencing it is a big plus. Getting the better of someone with a playful prank is also a way to break the ice and show someone you're fun to be around. So now she's thinking he's a clever and fun senpai. Add to this her own lackluster grades, and she's probably thinking he's right inside her league. From there, it doesn't really matter if he proves to be a slight disappointment, she already has a justified crush on him.

Then there's the fact he likes her harem game, which she seems convinced others would find silly. It is a very odd thing she does, and she obviously enjoys doing it. It's a part of her personality to play such games, and he just so happens to like them. Most guys probably WOULD find it weird, even in the drama club.

And finally, with how much women complain about men in general, a clever guy that is nice is already in the top half of all men. Not that she's old enough to know that, but I'd argue he's not so low-tier at all. I think average nice guy qualifies as top half.

Anyway, thanks for the review! I'll probably suffer through a few more episodes till the story gets more coherent, as I'm enjoying it overall aside from the weird format you mentioned.

Yeah, it's a little unfortunate. I'm still happy with the final result. I also find it weird how they ended the show so anticlimactically. For how the entire two seasons went, I was expecting a lot more resistance. It also ended as if there was more to come, which I guess there is with the new special or something, but still was a little bummed out. They handled the movie pretty bad.

Yeah, the movie was for sure rushed but they could've definitely turned it into a season. The two special episodes from Shaft basically just does the whole flashback arc in the movie better, like way better. Just maybe make a bridge between the pool part of the special with some build up and give the relationships more longing.

My main issue is the main character hasn't really taken any of the romance seriously, but does a fairly slow 180. Also the execution was botched. Either way I don't see the show concluding with anyone else being chosen. I might like Yotsuba the most largely due to the 2 episode special and how well-done it was. All we really needed was a bit more scenes with Yotsuba, literally even the montage showcasing all the scenes she was "in love" with him in the past were very limited, yet it's still powerful.

Anyways, those are my thoughts. I wouldn't dismiss her as being faked as emotionally complex. It's just she had no spotlight up until the end. Also I really can't believe they put out this movie how it was before they released the 2 episode special. I can see why people would hate it off that alone.

Pretty good Quintessential Quintuplets review, personally I didn't feel they tried to make Yotsuba complex in the finale. She's always been hinted at being more emotionally complex, and I think she is the most complex, or at least in the series (Ichika close second). She largely suffers from having absolutely zero screen time in the anime.

thank u for saying the comedy in The Elusive Samurai is cringe
because I thought I was going insane
the show could easily be above 7 for me but the comedy ruined it

ah i see

bro's PTW list is 5x more than my total entries (as i'm writing this [79])

Thanks for the FR.

Tall girls with long, straight black hair can't be beat for elegance. As for Isuzu the most riveting episode in GuP wasn't the tank battles it was Hana confronting her mother. I think I forgot to breathe for 15 sec watching that scene. Still brings chills. When quieter, polite girls suddenly get serious and confrontational for a change it really grabs one's attention.

Sachiko was drawn better in the manga/LN than in the anime I thought. More expressive eyes (rounder, less squished). Plus the noses are more realistic looking for all the characters. Not that the pointy noses in the anime are bad per se because it's just a style of character design of that time in anime and has nostalgia going for it. Same with the early-2000's overly large eyes. If Marimite ever got a re-boot I'd like to see those two things "upgraded" a bit lol.

Most of the other main characters I like the anime version better: Shimako, Sei, Rei.

Gotta run, I'll check back in a few hours (don't trust MAL for when I'm on or not as I have the site "up" whether I'm around or not lol).

Likewise I'm happy to find another Marimite fan. So glad you commented in the forum on Marimite.

Yeah and Girls & Panzer, too. That show got me back into anime after a long hiatus (hence Anzu for an avatar, etc). I didn't discover Marimite until a few years later. It was in my PTW for ages little did I know my future #1 was sitting collecting electronic dust in there all that time. But “All’s well that ends better.” — Hamfast Gamgee (Lord of the Rings).

Btw, Todou Shimako is possibly the most beautiful anime girl in existence and Mamiko Noto's voicing of her is perfection. But I probably don't have to convince you of that :)
