    Some concrete details on the Trigun reboot:



    Studio Orange were the ones behind Beastars, so there's some solid talent behind it.
    Huh, I wonder what that means for Beastars. 3rd season (still done by Studio Orange) was confirmed, but there's about two seasons' worth of story left. I guess either they compress the remainder into one season, or we don't get the conclusion/is done by a different studio (which would be weird).

    [edit] Ah, apparently they've already said previously it'll be the final season.

    Much earlier One Piece
    "Luffy... help me." And "I WANT TO LIVE!" are the true climaxes of their respective arcs. Everything afterwards is just fireworks.

    Wait what

    I'm being hyperbolic

    but that hiatus is going on 5 years now...

    I thought that was more because the manga was on hiatus?

    The manga was only on hiatus for a little over a year also I'm convinced the anime was basically an ad for the manga as is the style these days but what a good ad it is

    i think it becomes radically better at that point, but it really starts to show its promise (and premise) after he gets his advisor.

    the martial arts arc is pure gold, so good that i've started reading the webnovel, even.

    Last night on Animenagerie S was a night of hype moments.

    From a little girl pulling out a harp, to an adult film star draining all the nerd knowledge out of a cosplaying dentist, to a bard beating a dragon by singing the show's theme song.

    new Watamote chapter came out a couple days ago. On the one hand nothing much happens (seriously we could use some more big developments, it's been a while), otoh it's still a pretty fun chapter and has some nice little character beats.

    - Tomoko really has mastered the art of trolling Nemo into doing embarrassing stuff by telling her its for her future voice acting career. I enjoy Nemo and Tomoko's friendship, they're the sorta friends who just never stop giving each other shit.
    - On the one hand if Tomoki was ever actually intrigued by any of these crazy girls throwing themselves at him it would ruin his straight man role, so obviously he's never gonna be anything except annoyed at all these shenanigans. But jeez it's hard not to read him as super ace, he's soooo uninterested. Dude just wants to play soccer and do some video games and instead girls are constantly crushing on him and his guy friends are lending him porn and he's just annoyed at all of it. Even when he saw Yoshida naked he's just like... why are you in my bathroom. Does not care one bit.
    - Tomoki's not dwelling on naked Yoshida, but Mako definitely is. We haven't seen her much lately but it's still hard not to think Mako's nursing a pretty massive crush on Yoshida, though maybe a subconscious one. She's -very- concerned about the possibility that Yoshida might have a boyfriend, but is also totally unwilling to just ask anyone about it outright, and tries to get Yuri to ask for her. Mako is normally the codependent friend who considers everyone else before herself, so it feels really noticeable when instead she's openly annoyed at Yuri for not finding out what happened for her.
    - I really love Yuri getting all excited talking about acting. Like as long as we're listing out all the fan theories I'm still like 70% convinced that Yuri is on the spectrum - among other things her complete inability to read the room or to tell that Maki's serious about wanting her to find out about Yoshida or notice that everyone's confused about why she suddenly launches into a monologue about acting - but obviously that doesn't mean she can't like movies.
    - And then possibly a Sachi vs Yuri showdown next chapter? Honestly probably not, the manga usually avoids these sorts of direct hooks. It does feel like we have a lot better idea of why Sachi and Yuri hate each other so much now though: Yuri is incapable of reading the room, in the most Japanese sense of the phrase, and Sachi is deeply annoyed at anyone who sticks out (and of course she's always the leader of the group and deciding what goes in the first place, nicely for her).

    So, I dunno? Sorta nothing happened? But also a lot of subtexty character interpretations all kinda showed up at the same time in this chapter.

    Man, as I've actually gotten a chance to go through next season, which starts on Friday, there's so fucking many sequels/spinoffs.

    Overlord, Rental Girlfriend, Classroom of the Elite, Made in Abyss, Danmachi, Devil is a Part Timer, Shadows House, Tokyo Mew Mew, Orient, Love Live, Utawarerumono 2, Jashin-chan Dropkick, RWBY, Prince of Tennis, Shoot!, Cardfight Vanguard.

    Good god, that's a lot. Plus all the cheat power isekais, though one is Satelight, who always does good animation. It seems like possibly the least objectionable of the lot, though with one explicitly about buying a slave wife harem to treat them well, that isn't hard.

    That said, almost all the completely original things look quite intriguing too, and there's a decent chunk of them.

    Engage Kiss, Lycoris Recoil, Bucchigire, You0 Deco, Extreme Hearts, KJ File

    Engage Kiss seems like a fun throwback to the magical girlfriend Index/Shana kinds of shows where everybody's a badass without the tsundere crap.

    (spoilers just official PVs)
    Lycoris Recoil could also be a girls with guns thing, though it's hard to tell what direction that's going. There's one promo where they whip out pistols to shoot at... something, and others where they just complain about how they can't find a man.

    I don't really have too high hopes for either Bucchigire (looks to be generic shounen shinsengumi) or Extreme Hearts (super power sports girls, but Nanoha/Dog Days dudes, and Dog Days burned all good will and they've been kinda crappy for a while). KJ File has potential for the premise (studying kaijuu), but literally no promotional stuff at all, and You0 Deco is a Science Saru thing (Eizouken/Devilman Crybaby), so the visuals start out trippy as fuck.

    Summer Time Render is also continuing right along and still enjoying that.

    I am ten episodes into Ranking of Kings
    The most interesting thing so far is with the exception of Boji on one end and the Mirror on the other, nobody seems to be all good or all evil, despite their fairly broad portrayals early on. And this seems to extend even to King Bosse, who has stolen the strength of one son and the literal body of the other. And there's a lot of conflict within these characters. It's all rather intriguing.

    They just updated the Crunchyroll app on the PS4 and it is a WILDLY different UI. It looks a like the old Funimation UI.

    Obviously because they changed it and it's different I hate it. Well, it's annoying to have to learn a new thing. The search function seems broken. Every time you enter a letter, it closes the input box and shows you that search. E.G.

    O
