    I liked SuperEyepatchWolf's video on why Akira Toriyama's panel layout is top tier, even if other artists surpass him in other areas.

    I know Araki and JoJo in general tend to be polarizing, and even Araki's best runs on that comic are not inherently the most artistically consistent, but I feel like once JoJo went to monthly it got really gorgeous. Just, so much more time for those buck wild panel layouts and character designs to get an extra bit of refinement

    There is I think one reference by Lower One to him alongside the other Upper Six, and they show his silhouette.

    Him showing up was really just "no, you don't get a happy ending. Deal with it."

    As long as they don't rely on the wolfgirl too much, Miss Kuroitsu from the Monster Development Department seems really fun so far. It's just nonstop tokusatsu references/jokes.

    The credits seemed like they used actual toku stuff for the montage at the start too? I agree overall - dial back the horny and it could be fun, the first half was pretty enjoyable.

    The imaginary praying mantis was one thing, that's just Baki and his own mind, but in one of the later parts of the manga, Baki's final battle-winning move is:
    after a bunch of the usual sorts of punching and kicking, Yujiro mimes cooking a bowl of miso soup for Baki, which Baki mimes drinking, and Baki wins the fight because he could tell that his dad put too much imaginary salt in the imaginary miso soup

    and also that battle is so awesome that
    someone watching it has their cancer cured

    The running gag here is that nobody wants to explain what the "sex" (in English) means, and she intuits that it means an intense encounter between people, and is eager to use her new word, so goes around bragging to everybody about how epic, bloody and intense her many sexual conquests are.

    Horizon was certainly a show.

    i think the real strength of flying witch is how it weaves the worldbuilding in to the low stakes slice of life stories

    the plot is out there SOMEWHERE but it rarely imposes on the vibes

    After consulting with @Zonugal and the rest of the crew, there's been a slight update to the schedule for Season 4 of AniMenagerie.

    bpruf0qnvoga.png

    So for all the people that keep recommending Fate/Zero, this is your chance to join us and experience several new people reacting to it!

    What happened to Sailor Moon S? Well...


    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PmEtJX3Els


    3t1obl9kc0tk.png

    Saturday nights! 6 Pacific, 8 Central, 9 Eastern. Subtitled anime in the original nihongo, the way kami-sama intended it.

    This schedule is still a bit tentative, but it will look mostly like this. If we finish the whole season of Sailor Moon S, the 12 remaining episodes will probably roll over along with more Symphogear and Thunderbolt Fantasy. Assuming everyone enjoys! Also, there's a Gridman X Dynazenon movie to watch at some point, right?

    If you're interested in any of these, PM Zonugal or I for an invite to the Discord.

    Edit: That first image is a little wide, sorry about that. The file sizes are pretty low though.

    Season 4 of AniMenagerie is currently scheduled to be on Monday, Jan 31st, so you've still got time to decide to join in.

    Until then, we'll be watching:

    Mon, Jan 10: Baccano eps 14-16 (the oav eps), Bakarina S2 eps 5-7
    Mon, Jan 17: Bakarina S2 eps 8-12, ???
    Mon, Jan 24: ???

    '???' to be filled in with movies, specials, or short oavs series. And even the stuff listed could change. Bakarina S2 wasn't originally part of the line-up, but she elbow dropped Cromartie right off the schedule.

    AniMenagerie S may be starting as early as this coming Saturday, January 15th. Though it hasn't been set in stone.

    I'm glad to see you guys doing THunerbolt Fantasty! That show does not get anywhere near enough love. I think S2/S3 are a bit weaker as individual seasons, but the coherent ongoing narrative they're telling is great.

    I finished season 2 of Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid.

    Firstly, it was much less problematic than I expected, at least in duration. Yeah the new character's outfit is REAL BAD when she's first introduced, but then she behaves like an older teen and wears normal clothes and it's generally fine. The existing problematic character dynamic between two of the side characters continues to exist, but largely a lot less blech in S2 than S1.

    All that aside, I seriously loved this season and I love this show. The titular Miss is just extremely relatable and fascinating, the voice acting (I watched the dub, fight me) was superb, the stories were either fun, enjoyably bittersweet, or really heartfelt and wholesome.

    It's the very definition of a "somewhat problematic fav" imho.

    I barely made it 5 minutes into Girls' Frontline. Just incredibly boring, and nothing interesting to look at either. Why are they named after real guns but shoot GI Joe colored lasers?

    However, the OP looks and sounds amazing.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qjNW5lFhYfc

    The ED was pretty good too, or at least better than the actual show. But the same boring visuals.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mcCjZvU0cQE

    I'm guessing animating everything like the OP would be too expensive or time consuming. Shame, it's the only interesting part.

    If you get to live action shows, while it's not an anime at all, it's dramatic enough + spoopy enough to be one... give Hotel Del Luna a go. Bonus points, it's all on netflix and subtitled. Loose pitch would be "Genderflipped Beauty and the Beast set in a hotel that caters to ghosts who havent passed on for various reasons", with The Beast being the owner of the hotel, and the Beauty her new human manager.

    Really good!

    But i'd also be super interested to hear your takes on Thunderbolt. I think it takes a little bit to get used to because the puppets cant move their mouths, so all the emoting is handled by being VERY FULL BODY DRAMATIC, but i liked that a whole lot once i got used to it - honestly makes characters a bit easier to read as a neruospicy person.
