    Watched the super sentai romcom from last year cause it was on my suggestions. Was cute. Wouldn’t mind more.

    If it's Love After World Domination, then the manga is complete and goes for a few more volumes past where the anime ended.

    Finally watched the last final part final final the sequel part final Attack on Titan:
    I liked most of it except I was entirely uninterested in the bit where it attempts to justify Eren's actions. Also not sure how I feel about the implication that like, the world ultimately doesn't become any more peaceful. It's realistic, but a bit of downer after the hopeful character end stories.

    I'm currently nearing the end of Black Clover.

    I am sad that I'm near the end, because I really like it but after the elf arc it seems to have lost a lot of gas anyways.

    I'm gonna pick Dr Stone back up after that, as I only watched what was on Hulu.

    I still find it so weird how Hulu will start me up on an anime and then I drop them and pick up another service so I can finish it.

    If you have Netflix you should check out the Black Clover movie because it is a masterclass of animation.

    I feel like the animation for JJK peaked in Red Scale and has been on the down slope since.

    It has definitely taken a hit in frames and fidelity, but it's kind of working for me in a different way because they've gone really hard with flourish heavy style

    edit: the animation director on these eps was also on Mob Psycho, which definitely lines up stylistically

    Frieren episode 10. I knew
    what was coming the whole time, and it still managed to shock me. Just incredible. And not just the climax at the end; from the first second it was beautifully crafted. The forest shots alone were breathtaking. The only thing that looked a bit off was the conversation on the stairs. 10/10 episode, not just in this series, but of created episodes of media I've seen in my life. It took its time the whole episode to properly build a foundation, so that the payoff was as great as possible, even if you saw it coming, while still nailing the quiet subtlety that is the hallmark of this series.

    This was the chapter that sold me on this series when i read it initially.

    I understand why Japanese broadcast television requires the dimming and ghosting, but it's also super jarring to me.

    Fucking hell I forgot how much Monster rules. I think I'm enjoying coming back to it even more than I did on the first watch 15 years ago. Things that probably washed over me then are hitting now.

    Urasawa straight-up turned The Fugitive TV show into an anime populated with amazing character designs of normal-ass looking people.

    Can't wait to watch Pluto after this.

    Yeah, I had a pretty good idea of how this was going to end as soon as Aura's spell was explained, and then the beginning of the episode basically confirmed it when Ludger realized what Fern was up to (and it's wonderful how that scene followed from Flamme and Frieren, layering another hint on without giving it away). A nice slow episode showing how Frieren and Flamme met and montaging through her training to set up the ending...

    Just wonderfully structured to slowly build up to the climax you knew was coming and it's still completely satisfying. The way it ends it super well done, cutting to the credits like that. This is definitely my favorite show this season.

    ...also, Frieren saying she'd have been in trouble is a total fucking lie and I'm sure of it. The only trouble she'd have been in is Aura might have gotten away while she was glassing the area.

    My guess is the Demon King is not truly a demon. There's already suggestions he's very different from the demons he commands.
    For instance, Flamme was able to find Aureole, the land of souls, at one point in her life when that's where the Demon King's castle stands, and the Demon King already existed at that point considering she still looks young when she finds Frieren. So how can this world's equivalent of heaven be in the same location as the Demon King's domain? There's also the fact that the Hero Party killed the Demon King but never found anything remotely like heaven there.

    Has the second YuYu Hakusho movie, the feature length one ever gotten an HD transfer?

    Never saw the shorter one that was like, a double billing with the Ninku movie (I think that one even when released in North America was released together with that? With Ninku’s movie being the headliner), but I fuckin’ loved the second film and had it on DVD

    I am very tentative about the current arc of the Frieren manga, but I trust the author to deliver with it
    I just don't think it's a great idea for Frieren to actually run around with her former party members again; I think it has the chance to ruin the entire vibe the manga was going for if not done well.
