I think the style is more fitting. It’s extremely tragic and it’s gory as fuck. I don’t think a style close to the comic would work nearly as well for the ending of the Story of Moriko Song. The art of the comic seems so lighthearted.

Food Wars is actually better than I thought. You just have to give it a chance.

rec me some animu

inb4 boku no pico

i've already seen it

Looks like gen:lock is replacing Attack on Titan for the Toonami block, which I’ll take a pass on. Honestly, I was half-expecting RWBY to be there considering that adult swim and Rooster Teeth are now part of the Warnermedia group, and seems to want to cross-promote what they have. There were smart enough not to do that show at least, but hopefully this will be a one-off series and not flood it other RT crap.

As for actual anime, I’m actually enjoying Mom Isekai (the full name is Do you love your Mom and her two hit multiparty attacks?)

Sorry to double post, but as I was mentioning with Mom isekai, it’s a parody of isekai tropes and shows in general from a viewpoint of a mom and a teenaged son, but doesn’t take them that seriously. If nothing else, it is kind of humorous in a way that a MILF who probably never played a video game before become an OP badass.

Of course, my hope is that it doesn’t turn into a cringefest of generational stereotypes and characters that don’t grow and evolve from this point forward, because they have all of the ingredients to do so, but I’ll give it the benefit of the doubt for now.

*Milf Isekai. This is way up my alley and the only thing I'm currently keeping up with week-to-week. It helps that, as far as I can remember, I have literally never bothered with an isekai show, so the animosity others have for this it being too generic is lost on me. I even bought the first light novel, and that's a format I've never even tried before.

I like how the most recent episode didn't feel the need to shoehorn in any ecchi fanservice and just went for a wholesome tone. Though I also find it hilarious the hatred it's getting from some people (a vocal minority of insecure normies) over the more sexual elements. Infinite sexy teenagers are fine but one milf and suddenly people are moral puritans when it comes to anime, fuck off like.

I never hated the isekai genre, but I never really gone out of my way to watch much isekai either. More or less, you’ve seen one, you’ve seen most of them, which is why I put this series and Konosuba above most others is because they play around with those tropes while not taking themselves seriously.

Funny enough, SAO is also considered an isekai series by many, despite the fact that it technically isn’t. (At least not since the first arc.)

I’m honestly curious how long that’ll last, though that won’t be the worst trap they’ll fall into. As I said before, this could turn into a cringeworthy commentary of old school vs. new school gamer diatribe or generational disconnect down the road, but I don’t think they’ll sink to that level.

Plus, most of those milfs in anime barely look older than those sexy teenagers in the first place. In anime, you have to make a women a complete bitch, a total old hag or Yotsuba in order not to get lusted over by some fans. Compared to some of the more screwy sexual shit in anime, MILFs are practically low on the list.

The light novel so far has given me the impression that the author isn't actually that knowledgeable or invested in games, so I wouldn't worry. The line about modern players having no patience I'm pretty sure was just a hand-wavy way to let them get their signature weapons, and let Mamako be totally overpowered, right off the bat. The actual game mechanics are just background noise.

Cool, thanks for giving me some recs, you fuckin' turds.

ANYWHO

I'm looking for a certain sub for Angel Beats, I was gonna ask /a/, but thought that maybe you guys would be able to help me out. The sub had different colours for each character, I can't remember correctly, but I think the colour of the subtitles corresponded with the hair colour of each character. It might have been THORA, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't. It also wasn't HorribleSubs.

fdsfdssssffff

What kind of genres are you into?

Baccano, Kemonozume, Texhnolyze, Blue Gender, Psycho Pass, Chromartie High, GTO?

I started to notice that series when I came across a video clip on Youtube where a certain tsundere has a beef with her mom. When I starts looking up on the series, the tsundere does have a good reason to hate her mom, being a thot and all. Also the dialogue from the mom mentioning popping her from between her legs...lol.

I'm so old school that I know this by heart. Static Subs. Color-coding by hair was their trademark. I briefly worked for them.

Btw, this was not easy to find in original quality. Subs this old don't really exist anywhere outside of ancient p2p networks. They're the 21st century version of old VHS fansubs that were passed around. Long-replaced by Blu-ray re-subs.

It's good shit, yo. That episode has a surprisingly wholesome ending. Interested to see where it goes.

Hello Anime Club, I have seen two anime films, Your Name, and A Silent Voice, I enjoyed both of these. I don't suppose you guys can recommend anymore films along these sorts of lines?

Just checked out A Silent Voice today, my god, that was a fantastic film. I'll admit, while the movie got me close to crying, I can safely say it will be a tear jerker for some. While my 'anime' movie list very narrow, I can recommend Spirited Away as a great anime movie, while more on the fantasy side of things, still fun to watch. As for more recent ones, I've hear pretty good things about "The Boy and the Beast" so I say give that one a shot

Yeah, A Silent Voice is a real emotional film, I really enjoy it, especially when I am able to feel emotions, it's great to feel! But Spirited Away, I have already seen, I'm sure everyone has seen that! If not, they should see it, that's a good film too. I'll put The Boy and The Beast on my list though.

Are we talking emotional anime? How about Wolf Children?

Fairy tail?

It's pretty good, I'm not the biggest fan or anything *notice the heavy sarcasm* but it would be good to discuss it, the plot, the characters, the magic, natsu. Natsu is the coolest. I will burn you at the stake (pun intended) if you don't think he's cool.

Hey, I'm new here. I'm a pretty big One Piece fan & love Black Clover too.

I picked up the Dororo manga the other day. My friend watched the remake and was really into it, so I'm excited to read Tezuka's original. I also picked up a manga called Erased by Kei Sanbe, since it seemed interesting (Plus, I love hardcover books). Anyone heard of it?

Haven't seen it, but the anime came out a few years ago and was very well received. MAL has it ranked #90 by score and #36 by popularity.

Hey, not bad! Looking forward to reading this one, then!

Last week was the season finale of gen:LOCK and this week is the penultimate episode of Dragon Ball Super, along with an encore of the previous 10 episodes. What do you think Toonami has in store for us in October?

I know season 4 of My Hero Academia premieres in Japan October 12, but I wouldn't expect the dub for a week or two afterwards.

I know I'm answering my own question, but season 2 of One Punch Man premieres tomorrow along with Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

I have been keeping up with Toonami, just been too busy to post about it. Fire Force has really gotten better as it goes.

Oh man. MrTrivia. Gotta admit, I didn't expect to see any names I recognized.

Okay there's no way in hell I'm going to bother reading over 2000 pages but I'll partake here since I'm trying to be more active on the forums here.

A LIST OF DIOSHIBA'S FAVORITE ANIME IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER:

Series:

• Jojo's Bizzare Adventure (Specifically Battle Tendency but Stardust Crusaders is a personal second to that)
• Cowboy Bebop
• OG Dragonball (Z is fine, Super is Okay, IDK WTF GT is)
• Sailor Moon (which is one of the few shows outside of my demographic that I actually enjoy)
• Devilman Crybaby
• Naruto (Putting aside filler, this is a fucking good anime and I can tell you why)
• Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood

Film:

• Akira
• The Night is Short, Walk On Girl
• Summer Wars
• The Boy and The Beast
• Paprika

People working on anime behind the scenes:

• Norio Matsumoto (Litterally everything this man touches is beautiful, especially because of the fight scenes he does)
• Mamoru Hosoda
• Masakki Yuasa
• Osamu Tezuka (While I'm not 100 % fond of Astro Boy, he has significance in the industry. I'm more interested in his work in short film than I am many of the other things that he made and that's because of the experimental nature of his work in that regard, like Jumping.)

So that pretty much covers just about everything concerning where my tastes are if we're picking favorites.

My biggest problem with Fairy Tail is that it has to explain a move someone makes to explain to the audience in the middle of a fight nearly all the time. And that kills the pacing for me when it does that.

I mean yes explain certain elements of the show when it's not in the middle of a fight or at the very least allow the viewer to trust what is going on without having to explain how a character made a move after the fact, its almost as if the show writers didn't fully trust the audience in that sense.

I mean yes I realize this is a fairly common thing for Shonen to do, but still I would prefer it at a minimum.

The new episodes of One Punch Man have been good. Maybe not as good as the first ones, but pretty close.

Cautious Hero is easily the best comedy this season.
