    Before clicking the video I thought they'd actually put a giant Shinji decal on the front of the car and was wondering how well they could see through the windshield.

    what are you doing, step bro???

    Domestic Girlfriend is bad, but it is legitimately bad in a way you kind of can't stop. I dunno if it's sunk cost fallacy or like watching a trainwreck but you just can't look away.

    i absolutely love it, it’s trashy in all the right ways for me

    and i’ll always go to bat for the anime’s OP

    But
    The plot point of a reporter going “wait is this upcoming artist fucking his step sister“

    Is really funny

    All I know about Domestic Girlfriend is that the OP song slaps way harder than the show deserves.

    Are they suggesting that the spirit of your dead mom inhabits this car? Or merely that they plan to force underage children to drive this car into combat?

    I was trying to look up the lyrics to the Bakarina opening, and came across Megami33's channel (Bulma from DBZ Abridged, also does other voice acting work like Arche in Overlord) where she sings english dubs of various anime songs. From what I gather it's not a direct translation, but as close as it can get while fitting the beat and still rhyming.

    Here's the Bakarina one:

    The full version of the song is almost at 60 million views on youtube. The 2019 winter season had a lot of fantastic opening songs yet the trashiest show had the best one.

    I also watched Brand New Animal, the OP/ED are incredible. As is the look and animation in general. The baseball episode was, of course, amazing.

    It has to get a second half/second season, right? It felt like it took those six episodes entirely to set up the back half of the story.

    Backstreet Girls was a transphobic and homophobic manga that felt like it came from the 1980's because of how backwards it was.

    Oh man I don't really want to go there, the folks in here would not like his previous work, I thought the new manga was pretty interesting though

    Can we just leave it at this and not have any further discussions about it, I rather people talk about things they like instead

    The only girl that got off easy in that manga just got massive boobs.

    yes but in 20 years she'll have back problems and ask Fran to take away her back pain, and, well

    Franken Fran is a weird absurdist h... horror? c... comedy? manga? I can't really recommend it but there's not really anything like it. Body horror black humor!

    watching the new gits sac (45)

    i'm still a little 'eh' on the character designs but the tachikoma look pretty good in motion these days

    also kind of low key happy they brought back the english voice cast from the previous standalone complexes, i gotta admit that is the correct voices for these characters in my brain

    There's a villain who turns up in Jason Aaron's Ghost Rider run called the Skinbender, who looks like a "realistic" body horror version of Sailor Moon.

    I finally figured out what the drop one minute into the Domestic Girlfriend OP was reminding me of: the drop one minute into the Demon Slayer OP. Phew, that's a load off of my brain.

    Oh shit, we talkin' Franken Fran in here?

    For those not in the know, it's about a Frankenstein's Monster-like girl named Fran that has taken over her creator's mansion and workload while he's away. She's a genius surgeon and scientist in her own right who is always willing to help people with their medical needs. Unfortunately, Fran's experiments often result in body horror because, as a non-human, she doesn't understand what people would find disturbing. Predictably, things rarely go well for Fran's patients (though at least most of her patients are terrible people, usually unbeknownst to Fran).

    Franken Fran is also notable for featuring the only depiction of the Flying Spaghetti Monster I've ever seen in a Japanese media property.

    EDIT: For those interested, I just found out a sequel manga called Franken Fran Frantic started last year.

    Fran wouldn't really care if they're terrible people or not though, because she's pretty awful herself. When she was in a cave-in on a tour bus she provided surgery and donor organs to the injured people via one of her horrifying servants who was designed to store surplus organs by incorporating them into her body, then told them that if they don't make it out in time she'll be taking said organs back with interest.

    Cut to the last page where Fran and her servant are exiting from a hole dug through the rubble and the servant is now comically fat.

    Tonight I watched the first four episodes of Legends of the Galactic Heroes and had to actively stop myself from watching anymore, as I would stay up late into the night binging it.

    Folks, this is some good stuff.
