    Surely Luffy vs Kaido has surpassed that. It even has its own bullshit "five minutes" counter.

    Manga are generally better at convincing you their high octane events happen quickly.

    Like apparently from Jotaro approaching Dio to the cleanup after the fight, in the manga Jotaro says maybe four minutes has passed

    The wisest thing the anime did was not mention this, and just accepted the different medium means different amounts of time passed

    honestly my favorite thing with this is when people just take it at its word and edit it to show the "real" fight

    e.g.
    Goku vs. Frieza but It's Actually 5 Minutes (warning for flashing lights)
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a2jgfMNmzUA
    THE 48 Minutes of Tournament of Power in REAL TIME (turn down the volume imho)
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jaK7ypei56U
    Jotaro VS DIO but the fight's duration is canonically correct

    Dungeon Meshi MANGA spoilers, NOT SAFE FOR ANIME-ONLY:
    Except it kind of is, because in the latest episode there were a ton of details that hint at a way-later reveal. I went back and checked the manga and most of these background portraits weren't there. I'm not mad or nothing, I just think it's kinda funny they decided to spell it out. Like, these really give the game away. Who's that man holding baby Marcille? The one who's kind of hunched over in the other portrait? Is that his withered hand in the upper portrait? Why are Marcille's mom's ears so much pointier? To be fair... in retrospect Laios asking if her dad died young was already a big hint.

    Dunmeshi manga spoilers
    When this chapter released, people had already started figuring out Marcille's entire half-elf-worried-about-human-mortality deal. I think the theories started the first time we saw an elf with "thin" ears, in fact!

    Dungeon Meshi manga spoilers, continued.
    Well Trigger has made it easier for the anime crowd. Now there's at least three groups of DiD watchers: Manga readers who know, Anime-only that figured it out, and the ones who don't know. Makes reading the reddit thread more interesting.

    Also kind of interesting that the first (half)-elf character we meet after Marcille, Fionil the weepy elf from the second floor, has the same ears as her. I wonder if Ryoko Kui chose to do this to not leave the audience too suspicious about ear shapes, or if she just hadn't decided those were specifically half-elf ears yet.

    the art style hadn't fully solidified in those early chapters so probably a retroactive foreshadowing if you ask me.

    On Thursdays, I watch Dungeon Meshi in bed before sleep. For some reason, I must have been extra tired and kept drifting in and out of sleep. Figure I'll watch the episode over again because I honestly don't remember much of it.

    I’ve been on an anime watching tear lately after having not watched a new one besides Demon Slayer in a very long time. I started Solo Leveling last weekend and it’s SO GOOD. I’d heard good things, but damn I am kind of sad I only have a couple episodes left.

    Before that I had been watching Welcome to Demon School Iruma-Kun which I liked more than expected since comedy anime don’t tend to be my favorite, and then The Devil is a Part Timer which better not take another 10 years between seasons now that I’m hooked.

    Some anime that I like, but I'm not sure is up your alley:

    - Mashle (action comedy) - if the One Punch Man was in Hogwarts
    - 'Tis Time for Torture, Princess (comedy, fluff) - the princess is captured by the bad guys, and is tortured... by good food
    - Spy x Family (comedy, action) - in an alt-Earth East/West Germania, a Spy sets up a fake family for a long term mission, but the family members have secrets of their own.

    One Piece:
    the fact it took 1114 chapters for the full allegory at the heart of the story being anti-capitalist, anti-oligarchy/aristocracy climate change parable is why One Piece is a singular work. just madlad shit from Oda

    also RuriDragon:
    despite having no combat, Ruri is proving to be the ultimate shounen protag and this is solidifying itself as a real standout, i hope the author first of all stays healthy but also that this story is long enough to be animated by Science Saru or something

    One Piece 1114:
    I am amazed at how much info we're getting here, I kept expecting it to be "...and the secret to the Void Century is" [broadcast stops], or "...and Joyboy is" [broadcast stops]", but somehow it just keeps on going.

    RuriDragon:
    I appreciate that it's not always "girl has dragon powers", sometimes it's just high school stuff happening, it's done a good job of feeling like it is really is about trying to just be normal under difficult circumstances, it doesn't seem as if The Bad Guys are going to show up and suddenly she'll have to be in combat or whatever.

    Spy x Family
    The age/power dynamic difference is still a bit weird here, but it's interesting getting more details of the history / war filled in, it becomes ever clearer why there's so much dedication to stopping war happening again in the present day.

    Witch Watch
    I continue to be amazed that Kento Shinohara gets to make so many random side-story chapters about whatever he feels like without having to worry about the main plot or anything, it's a lot of fun.

    This week's new one, Psych House, feels oddly familiar based on just the first chapter, but so far it's at least cheerful, which is always nice.

    Spy x Family is on my list. My wife just marathoned through it a couple weeks ago and loved it.

    Finished Solo Leveling last night and I need more! At least the new season of Demon Slayer starts today.

    Chillin’ in Another World with Level 2 Super Cheat Powers has one of the worst names, and it is such a trashy isekai, but I like it? A lot so far?

    -Protagonist isn’t a guy from Japan. He’s a guy… from another fantasy world.
    -Protagonist was just a merchant and wants to stay just a merchant despite being an overpowered magician.
    -Protagonist is 100% committed to his presently “fake” wife.
    -Protagonist is explicitly, hardline anti-slavery and the subjugation of others, and slavery isn’t a thing in the world he’s been transferred to.
    -Main girl is bad at cooking, but she actually gets better at cooking! It’s not just a running gag that she shouldn’t be allowed to cook for people!

    oh I think I read the first few manga volumes for that one out a few years ago, it seemed pretty alright as far as the mountain of cookie cutter "isekai video game cheat power" stories go. Not the least bit original but at least a bit wholesome.

    It's wholesome but yeah it doesn't really do much to stand out from the pack of isekai power fantasy stuff. There is some hint of potential future conflict after the djinn shows up but I don't really think the story itself is capable of pulling it off.
    Basically if he tries to manipulate time again it's strongly implied the divine forces will make him regret it. They're already aware of his existence, though not any specifics but more they know someone trespassed on their domain, after his stunt rewinding time.
