    can someone tell me what the heck Eminence in Shadow is about tho? I see it around a lot but have no idea what it's about or if it's actually broadly good or just merely appealing to certain folks

    It's about a delusional guy from regular earth who wants to LARP as the Eminence in Shadow, which he views as a behind the scenes puppet master that drives the plot of a story separate from the main characters in that story, without those characters knowing. He is insanely talented and dedicated to his LARPing, and pursues magic in the real world to this end, and ends up getting isekai'd because of it.

    In his isekai world, he picks up where he left off with his LARPing, only the world he's in actually has magic, so he's able to live out all his pretend fantasies. He gathers a bunch of friends and they all decide to LARP together and he puts a bunch of pretend performances, except...
    In the isekai world all of his delusions end up being true without him ever realizing, and all of his friends thing he's playing everything straight, and never realize he's delusional.

    It is equal parts awesome played straight and hilarious parody, and got a huge animation budget to boot with a talented cast.

    this is extremely perplexing and yet it still compels me

    Watch episode 2, it'll explain basically every relevant conceit. Episode 1 is more of a backstory episode that sets up for things later in the first season; all you need for episode 2 is the basic background of the main character.

    The other thing that maybe gets more people interested in it than the premise might explain is that the main producer really liked the original material and had novel ideas for how to organize and present its concepts through visual storytelling. He was working on the season 1 finale from the time the season started and by all appearances also got the production staff hyped up to put on a show.

    I agree with skipping the first episode if you want to get an idea of the show. I think the events in episode 1 were covered in something
    Ike chapter 45 or 50 of the manga, so it’s kind of weird that they decided to lead with that.

    Yeah Episode 1 is from Volume 4 of the novel. It doesn't become apparent why they decided to skip ahead and do a one-off story from a later volume until the end last episode of the most recent season.

    I liked the first Apothecary Diaries OP better from both a visual and musical viewpoint, but I did feel it misrepresented Maomao's character a bit. Like if you just saw the OP on it's own you'd expect a different experience from the show than what you get (not as bad as some other shows though--looking at you, Death Parade).
    If you actually look at the lyrics the Death Parade OP song is very appropriate.

    Spoilers, for Death Parade:
    The song is basically "shut up, don't think about the inevitably of death, shut up, be happy or fake it till you die."

    Last night on AniMenagerie S, we finished both Hitoribocchi and Gabriel DropOut. Gabriel is a solid B show with one standout A+ character in Satania. She was the entire reason I wanted to watch that series, and she did not disappoint. Unfortunately the rest of the cast and jokes are fairly mediocre. Still, worth a watch, and not one of those impossible to recommend shows like I was worried about.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AuHRJTWSqsM

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jI32_viWmQQ

    Hitoribocchi is rather similar, as it's a very consistently enjoyable show. I'd probably be willing to go B+ or A-, though, because it's just so darn charming and wholesome. I found it very warm and comfortable, nice and relaxed. While the other, lesser Bocchi absolutely has higher highs, for me it had much, much lower lows. My attention wandered often, only snapping back when one of the songs or brief well animated sections appeared. Whereas Hitoribocchi was just nice and mellow all the way through.

    Episode 1 pays off in little ways all throughout the season and in the finale, just in setting up things Cid will do but not necessarily explain. The plot of it will be at best tangentially relevant, and then only for the movie, but if you think the series might be for you after episode 2, watch episode 1.

    I suppose it was only a matter of time now that Crunchyroll bought out RightStuf, but one of the movies I bought during their holiday sales is a dud and I'm dealing with their infamous customer service. Next time I'll just buy the knock-offs from Amazon, at least they don't ignore you once they get your money.

    The Blu-ray of Josee, the Tiger, and the Fish did something shitty I've only seen on streaming services up until then. You can only have English subtitles on if you're watching the JP language version, the dub would not ALLOW me to turn them on. The back of the box claimed "English subtitles", which I would call false advertising, frankly. It could potentially work differently on a different player (I had it in my Series X), but that's a them problem, not a me problem. It should be fit for purpose on any modern player. It's annoying enough that Crunchyroll streams pull this, doing that substandard crap on a full priced release is pretty outrageous.

    I'm almost wondering if that wasn't just supposed to be Maomao dressed up... were we seeing shades of her mother, perhaps? Considering her father used to be a doctor in the rear palace, and she was supposedly born around the time he was kicked out of there (17 years prior), I half expect it to turn out that her mother was a concubine in the rear palace at the same time, and her father may not actually be her biological one.

    Her connections to the brothel in her home town are almost certainly 100% related to that as well.

    I loved how in Witch from Mercury, the second ED would start playing just a little bit before the actual episode ended.

    I also saw a funny fan video of (spoilers for something that happens somewhere in the middle of season 2):
    Suletta in a spacesuit drawn in the chibi Among Us style floating through space, and as the text "Suletta was not the imposter" appears on screen the second ED kicks in.

    Sadly, I haven't been able to find the actual video. I think it was a twitter video and who knows what happened to that hell site since that episode aired.

    EDs playing before the episode ends are extremely powerful

    Off the top of my head

    -Roundabout in JoJo (of course)
    -Mephisto in Oshi No Ko
    -Either song by Yuzu in HxH
    -Shunkan Sentimental in FMA Brotherhood

    I could write a bunch about each of these but really, if you know you know. I'd say a well-deployed ED lead-in is a bigger positive to a show than a well-deployed OP insert.

    Comment on the episodes so far:
    Her father cannot be her gene donor since the rear palace doctor is supposed to be an eunuch, remember? That's why Maomao gets involved on the first place, since that requirement makes it hard to get someone competent on the position (female education is not a priority on the setting), they lucked out with her father previously, but he was expelled, so the current palace doctor is a moron.

    Especially when Mato Seihei no Slave Chained Soldier is over there being the horny BDSM show this season.

    Is a different case. Read some of the manga for Gushing Over Magical Girls, and the writing is better than the likes of Mahou Shojou Site or Spec-Ops Asuka, since it comes that someone that actually likes the genre, and that makes the problem that much more of a shame.

    Chained Soldier is just a more bland and boring version of Freezing.

    Re: Maomao's OOC representation in Apothecary Diaries' 1st OP

    If you read the lyrics (here's an English translation), it sounds a lot like it's sung from Jinshi's perspective. From the POV of someone completely enamored with her, the sexy, haughty, alluring Maomao of the OP makes perfect sense.

    To put it another way,
    Maomao (as seen by everyone else): *Weird little medical gremlin*

    Maomao (as seen by Jinshi): HANA NI NATTEEEEE
