    it's hilarious when they show characters that aren't even going to be introduced yet in the season they're producing, and then the show doesn't get a second season

    The final episode of Vinland Saga did this fantastically, but luckily it is getting a second season next year.

    Pouring one out for Flowers of Evil.

    vinland saga was wildly successful both the manga and anime, so it could justify it at least

    anyway, vinland saga rules and sweyn saying 'wales' lives rent free in my head

    there's a bunch of background cameos throughout the show from manga-only characters or people who won't be introduced for many episodes

    I'm thankful for the anime opening it up to a wider audience, but I'm especially happy that there's a second season coming because Vinland Saga is one of those stories where the first season is just like, the prologue to the real story.

    It's a fairly old one, the clips with the PBS-esque introduction are even wilder.

    notably, that's from KTEH, the same San Jose public television station as those clips

    It's also the name of the relevant chapter. I remember it.

    I haven't seen the anime but the manga ain't shy or coy about saying "This shit just got started"

    Gankutsuou's credits' song lyrics are just "hey! Have the instigator's motivations told to you directly!", which I always found entertaining.

    And while not the OP, I love that Wolf's Rain opens with the final shot of the show.

    You know, given how fucking creepy a lot of manga defaults too with anything sexual, Witch Hat Atelier having a chapter dedicated to calling out peeping Tom types and the very real harm they cause is fantastic

    Witch Hat Atelier is now getting an official English serialization on the Morning Two website, so that's cool.

    ... It's also starting from chapter one, and the website appears to be mostly in Japanese still, so that's less cool, but hopefully they'll publish chapters fast?

    Notably, RightStuf will no longer serve you your anime smut, that has been offloaded to a separate site that... doesn't actually exist yet?

    It's a weird situation, it seems like some people split off from RightStuf specifically to create the Anime Porn Store, and all open orders for that stuff from RightStuf will be transferred over, but they literally do not exist yet aside from a FAQ page

    Um, pardon? Why didn't anyone tell me Witch Hat Atelier was about being a magical craftsperson* and, most importantly, that talent isn't something you're born with?

    This is 110% up my alley, like, holy shit. And I only finished chapter 3!

    I was about to say that I actually liked the romance in Bakuman. Like, it's not amazing, but I liked the way that when they start dating, it doesn't really feel like it's gonna last, but they just stick together and as the story goes on it really does become hard to imagine one without the other.

    Then I realized you were talking about the other romance in Bakuman, which I had forgotten was in it.

    If y’all are looking for a rightstuf replacement may I present a site I found out about tonight.

    https://www.animecornerstore.com/

    Featuring site design from the early 2000’s AND inventory from then too! Do you need a Trinity Blood necklace? They got you. Do you need a Kon from Bleach backpack? They got you. D.Gray Man coffee mug? Sure.

    They also have modern stuff but like, this is hitting me in my very limited 2000’s anime con days.

    Anyways, I’m posting it because they have a cd section(don’t forget pre-owned) that has some real niche stuff at this point people might be looking for. Like the Viewtiful Joe soundtrack.
