    if it's a gag that can't be reproduced in color, they can just have the camera conveniently behind the character when they show their eyes or something

    Like in Polar Bear Cafe with the running gag of nobody ever seeing how Penguin gets on the bar stool.

    so for the last 15 years I've had a fairly consistent cycle of watching a ton of anime and then basically forgetting anime exists, in about an 18 month cycle

    the last two anime I watched were Chainsaw Man and Spy x Family, so it's been about six months of dead air for me

    I think this season being a relatively quiet one for big new releases is actually motivating me to catch up on a lot of stuff I missed the last six to eight months, so here's my self-imposed homework list:

    Trigun/Trigun Stampede
    Mob Psycho Season 3
    GWitch
    Bocchi
    JoJo Party 6

    anything else from the last 2-3 seasons I'm missing?

    Actually that model it’s an entirely separate arm piece you put on, it’s just enough of a pain to put on that I might never put the regular arms back on. Which is honestly fine.

    That's exactly what it was, based on the documentary. Part 1 had the Macross character designer, and 2 used a completely different one(but still credited the Macross artist since he designed Eve).

    From this season both Skip and Loafer and Insomniacs After School, both are refreshingly wholesome coming of age / romance stories where the characters actually act like real people and not anime tropes.

    Oh uh a warning if you wanna watch the original Trigun anime and Trigun Stampede I'd highly recommend the original first. Because Stampede will spoil a helluva of stuff from the original. (It's not a sequel, but seems to assume its audience has watched the original so quickly gets several series mysteries out of the way.

    also the original trigun anime is one of those "they made it before the manga was done and just made up their own ending after where the manga currently was" situations that seems to happen a lot, so the end of it is its own thing I think?

    which worked fine IMO, I don't remember having any problem with the ending, just noteworthy that it's a different continuity at that point.

    This week in anime impressions.

    Demon Slayer S4E6:
    Less flashy action, but more heartwarming sibling relationships. Both Tanjiro and Nezuko, as well as Genya and his Hashira brother. Getting a little verklempt.

    Why Raeliana ended up at the Duke's Mansion:
    I've been digging these villainess isekai lately. There's usually one every season, and it's a nice change of pace from the normal stuff I watch. In this week's episode:
    The fake couple lost their pretext for being a fake couple, but at least one of the pair wants the relationship to continue.

    Dandadan chapter this week:
    Momo (and the rest of the crew, through resonance) have just learned Vamola's tragic past, and they are pissed. Nobody treats her this way and gets away with it! Expect shit to pop off next week. Dandadan: it can't possibly go any harder, and the author turns it up to 11 yet again.
