    They have a better track record when it comes to actually wrapping up in any way shape or form than LN and manga adaptations.

    Most of those things are either still being serialized or more material than 12 episodes can hold.

    The anime to manga to original LN pipeline is frustrating, because you rarely get closure for stories or characters.

    We wrapped up Magical Project S/Pretty Sammy and the first season of Kaiji tonight on AniMenagerie S. It was a real land of contrasts there.

    Next week we start Ga Rei Zero and Ya Boy Kongming! And also begin the search for our Season 3 schedule. I've got a lot of nominations already, but we can always use more people joining in to watch and suggest.

    Oof, this Cafe Terrace anime was really, really bad. And not in a fun way. Just boring and relying entirely on (censored) nudity, but the girls aren't very interesting or well drawn. At least I can check that one off the list now.

    Kemono Friends (season 1) is probably my favorite gacha tie-in anime, but also IIRC the gacha shut down before the anime was aired?

    The gacha and the franchise was dead before the anime could be finished and aired, yeah.

    And then the anime revived the franchise because, from everything I know, while the whole thing was animated with a budget of "whatever we found flipping the cushions", it had a lot of heart. The anime studio poured some real love into it and a lot of people really enjoyed it.

    And then the owners went "okay, now that the brand is back alive we don't need these nerds" and fired basically everyone that was involved with the first season and got some other studio to do season 2.

    And then the fans went "absolutely the fuck not, actually" and sank the franchise again.

    It was kind of a rollercoaster and it was rather interesting to watch from the sidelines!

    God the new ED is so creepy/cool. Another post credit scene too, so watch out for that.

    A project named "Quiet Zero" that uses a brainwave format network to eliminate war and transcend humanity? So Delling and Prospera were making the singularity, cool, that's cool, I'm sure everything's fine there.

    That music is
    quite appropriate, considering the first scene is a rodeo of wild bucks being rounded up by Aerial and her pardner, Suletta.

    when she started apologizing to Mio in her head I was like "oh fuck, Suletta is going to do another murder?!?!?!"

    then, instead, she just busted out the student council handbook and I legit could not stop laughing, god I love this show

    Jump’s got a new manga by the Soma team; a student film appreciation club President gets possessed by the ghost of a student screenwriter who died thirty years ago, and now has gotten pulled into directing his new script for the actress who also goes to the school.

    Ginka and Glüna is officially over which sucks and I’m always going to wonder what might have been.

    Ichinose Family feels like it’s on the wrap up fast track which… yeah, makes sense.

    Undead Unluck starting a new arc and continues to be a fantastic comfort food-level series, particularly with Fuuko in charge and rebuilding The Order

    oh boy, none of this is going well huh? Like faster than I expected. Nika pretty much outed and nearly killed in the same episode even. Earth girls here to fuck everything up.At least we got the montage of Suletta clowning on fools. This episode looked really good but that opening first couple of minutes in particular. What do you want to bet they have to use gund technology to save Delling’s life? I’m sure the shot in the ending theme of Aerial reaching into Suletta, her glowing and then them showing like two pairs of arms reaching out will mean nothing at all. Likewise with the shots of longer hair Suletta and Mio where Mio looks confused or unsure of the person she’s facing. It’s fine.

    It very much feels like
    Good job Goku! You beat Vegeta, the strongest most powerful foe you've ever faced by a wide margin! He could absolutely beat every single person you've previously defeated!

    Oh, btw Frieza.

    Except
    these characters have been spoken of in hushed reverent tones for hundreds of chapters by this point. So it's less power creep and more "oh shit, did that sign say 'Fireworks Factory Next Exit?!'"

    The new Demon Slayer's live now, though I believe it's the last third of the movie, so nothing new if you saw that, but it's a great episode.

    I also loved when I finished G-Witch this afternoon, thought, "isn't demon slayer out today?', didn't see it among the 14 seasons listed. Checked the release calendar on the site, didn't see it. Checked twitter like 10 minutes later to a tweet announcing the episode was up.

    Witch from Mercury episode 13
    Since they're still at the school and the duels are still going on, it's really going to suck whenever Suletta inevitably loses a duel and someone else becomes engaged to Mio.

    I wonder if Suletta will go for the rematch and win, or if her and Mio will be at the point in their relationship where they decide to say 'to hell with the duels' and be together regardless?
