Not yet but when her metabolism slows down her waistline will be in trouble and she should double check figure out if that fantasy world knows how to treat diabetes.
what kind of problem
but is the show any good?

It's very of it's time. I think it's solid, but there is some problems with it.
Speaking of being of it's time. Since someone mentioned Slayers I've gone back and started watching it again. This is a good show I'm not sure I could suggest to people who didn't grow up with it. Like I think it's amazing, the pacing and delivery are exceptional and the characters are great but I feel it's probably too slow compared to the 5s scene style of modern shows people consider normal.
On a slightly newer series: Wagnaria/Working! is still the best damn show. Inami is GOAT. The chemistry between the characters is so good.
verdict: i don't think i like sports anime, but maybe I should rewatch Ping Pong ,March Comes in Like a Lion, and Yuri on Ice since i remembered liking those to be sure. or maybe there was just too much sports in this anime. shame that it took them 3 seasons to get to a bit of compelling emotional drama and then there will never be a fourth season and i'm not going to read the manga! should have spent less time playing sports
I think it happened once in a SRW, actually. But mostly I'm referring to how many fans apparently believe getting slapped by Bright "turns wimps into Men Of Destiny", in those exact words, and Shinji should get into SRW so he could get slapped. Which, like, if memory serves (it HAS been a dog's age), Bright slapping Amuro only made things worse for a while, and the turnaround came elsewhere.
Mostly the advantage is that, yes, the kids from the horrible series get an actual support structure. Dealing with stuff is easier when you have Tobia Arronax and Koji Kabuto and adult Amuro on your corner instead of, like, Gendo Ikari. As said, SRWX manages to make Ange into an enjoyable character (whenever the actual Cross Ange plot is not on screen, because christ on a biscuit that entire thing is tasteless and stupid), because she builds relationships with people like Nadia and Wataru and Kallen, and gets to have fun dunking on the likes of Lelouch.
the Naruto Ninja Storm trilogy is on sale on Switch right now
is this a decent way of experiencing the Naruto story if I have very little knowledge of Naruto
This is probably the best clip to sell someone on Princess Connect, I think.
Really only the first 30 seconds or so are needed imo
Edit: even better, just look at the thumbnail
short answer is yes
they're basically dbz kai for naruto
alternatively, you can experience the naruto story by watching woolie experience the naruto story through the NUNS trilogy(quadrilogy?)
They start halfway through the story
Whichll be a issue
And the earlier the game the more it doesnt explain
It's based on a mobage where the dude is a silent, faceless, player insert. In fact, I can't remember if they ever actually show his full design in the game, or if he's just always slightly out of frame or only the back of his head is visible or whatever.
The anime adaptation has basically played up his generic nature for maximum comedy value. So you get a kirito clone that suffers from crippling amnesia and needs to be babysat 100% of the time, otherwise he'll try to eat a coin or wander off and get murdered by wolves or whatever
"some problems" doesn't at all represent some of the really awful crap in it
Kite is not good. Do not watch it.
To be extremely clear here (content warning for the spoiler)
So yeah, there are other anime more worth your time.
Up to Episode 12 of LotGH, and I disagree with my friend's assessment that all the best characters are Alliance(though most of them are), Empire has some heavy hitters too.
A lot more jerks, though.
I glanced at the remake's previews, and it looks like an IG Production show. Very high budget. Has anyone watched it?
Flip Flappers
I have never seen this before or known of its existence
Any thoughts?
This will be here until I receive an apology or Weedlordvegeta get any consequences for being a bully
Papika could get a little grating from time to time, but overall I enjoyed it quite a bit.
Every possible pairing for her made the list (with all the girls outranking the guys, and her adopted brother being the highest ranked guy), and she's not aware of a damn thing.
*slice*
Sometimes things are hard to follow, but the jarring panel shifts work really well a lot of the time.
Also, Makima is definitely the big bad/final boss. Everyone is terrified of her.
it was a weird time
Flip Flappers is pretty bad. It has some really neat animation, especially in a few early episodes, but the plot is incomprehensible nonsense. It's like... they had three teams writing it. One that wanted to be Dragonball with girls screaming about friendship, one who wanted to do crazy experimental artsy surrealism, and one that wanted it to be a super melodramatic thing about families suffering, and never do the three of them ever communicate. Like one week, it'll just be a silly over the top Star Wars parody, and the next week, it's about a girl being abused by her parents while dealing with her grandmother dying of Alzheimers. It introduces a ton of characters and keeps focusing on them, only to just straight up drop them without having really interacted with the story or main characters in any way, have a different antagonist swoop in at the last second and make it all about something else entirely.
It's interesting enough for the visuals, and animation, and some of the earlier episodes are pretty cool, but the story is a complete disaster, and it has no character arcs for anybody, just a connect the dots between "friendship" and "magic."
It's just that Flip Flappers is 1) half the episodes and 2) not interested at all in pausing for a single moment to explain anything, preferring to just kinda keep going and let the visuals do the talking.
It's a good show if you enjoy surreal animation + gay magical girls, and don't mind the occasional breakneck pace and plot whiplash.

Oof, that last line hits too close to home.
watch Mononoke!
it's all on youtube
I haven't been following for the past couple months, but man, late-game TPN is messing with some really spicy concepts which I honestly don't think the series has the right tone and structure to deal with then with as much nuance that it thinks its actually doing.
I'm really not sure how I'm suppose to feel about (Big Spoilers)
So I'm honestly not surprised at all that it's going to end way too cleanly.
Nothing since the first arc has captured the terror of the beginning.
you can just see the author's political philosophy constantly butting headfirst into shonen jump manga structure (i'm being specific here but really i think a lot of fiction formats would have the same issue), with extremely mixed results
i kind of love it, it's really good at just emotionally devastating me, but at this point i'm honestly a lot more interested in the creative team's next project, which i hope takes some lessons away from how things shook out
It's also just a matter of like what matters to the show
Does The Big Plot ever really get explained? Eh... Barely? There's this org and they're doing their weird dream dives and there's kinda more to it but it really just doesn't matter.
What matters is the relationship and development between our two main characters. That's what the show is actually about and what it cares about, and it's good at that. Like the text - especially in the first half or so - is pretty much just a framework to hang the subtext onto, with the subtext being a gay girl coming of age and trying to find self acceptance.
It's also assuming a degree of familiarity with its references. Like episode 5 is assuming a good knowledge of the yuri genre, its a major thematic statement. What exactly the jewel is that they end up looting at the end of the episode doesn't matter, because it's not meant to be read literally anyway. Why there's an evil tower trapping them doesn't matter in a literal sense, but it does matter in that it's a giant phallus policing their sexuality and killing anyone that tries to escape their yuri genre schoolgirl prison.
Pecorine deserves better then being lumped together with [insert player name]
