Twitter is such a horrible interface that I don't actually know what's going on. Also, when you download images off twitter, they're in some weird JFIF file? Anyway, if this enlightens some of you to anything, great.
Marty: The future, it's where you're going? Doc: That's right, twenty five years into the future. I've always dreamed on seeing the future, looking beyond my years, seeing the progress of mankind. I'll also be able to see who wins the next twenty-five world series.

You know outside of the obvious my general hang up with moé/harem stuff is I always come back to the conceit of
"Why do they even like this asshole? He has no redeeming qualities whatsoever."
edit: On another unrelated note if anyone is wondering why there is an influx of illustrations with big titties anime girls wearing cow costumes it's because it's the year of the cow/ox, one of the 12 animals of the zodiac in Japan.

I extend that feeling to the light novel dramedies that have become en vogue.
Girl: "I'm sad about something. Possibly manifesting as a magical metaphor for teenage existential angst."

Girl: "Oh god, yes. Your acknowledgement has made me a complete person. I am yours forever."
Rinse repeat as it builds a harem, winking and nodding that the first one is totally the OTP, even as it becomes more and more like a goddamned parody of the Bechdel test. Sometimes I wonder whether this kind of nice guy incel bullshit or the objectification fanservice bullshit is more toxic. It feels like a lot have gotten worse too as they try to actively court the MRA audience that keeps churning out and eating up all the power fantasy crap.
Japanese light novels are like American comics (except they still exist): every possible combination of everything has already happened. There are a few themes that keep popping up because they're selected by the people willing to pay for fast food entertainment.
How do you make a system where only wholesome stories are told, or only wholesome stories are popular?

I am not going to defend that tweet but the manga's male lead is definitely not a sullen incel asshole and Uzaki is not a manic pixie girl
If you say that the story is just a fluffy and cute relationship between the two with a quirky supporting cast and the occasional fanservice thrown in there I would agree with you that it's not a particularly interesting setup and you won't miss out on anything for not checking it out

New Re:Zero season dropped yesterday and I couldn't pull myself away from watching the news and posting about it to watch new anime. What is wrong with the world. Hopefully there will be time today.
I can't say that the older stuff aged well but you can try immediately skipping to the first major arc (episode 58~61) or watch the movie version "Gintama: A New Retelling Benizakura Arc"(Better animation, more condensed) and get a feel of whether you like the characters or story telling enough to watch more of it. That covers the serious portion of the manga. For the comedy part try searching "Gintama funny scenes" on youtube and see if the humor is for you. Other than that I think it's fine to not watch all the episodes, you can always go back to them if you can't get enough of it someday
Anjou-san is better than Uzaki-chan. She even has an actually decent reason for why she started hanging out with the loner outcast main guy.

gintama is a lot and some of the humor is not great, but when it fires on all cylinders it goes

The bad gintama jokes are a fucking chore at best and offensive at worst.
The good gintama jokes are riotous.
Same with the drama. When it's bad it's cringe as fuck. When it's good it's some of the best anime around.

Asta getting progressively more buff with every season is very amusing.

First impressions and thoughts on the the first two episodes of Princess Nine, Gurren Lagann, and Erased (three shows I have never watched & knew nothing about) that we watched tonight.
Princess Nine
-- This show is fantastic. Love me the anime version of A League of Their Own, including anime drunk Tom Hanks.
-- The music on this show is amazing.
-- This show's a real trip back to the 90's via the dubbing.
Gurren Lagann
-- This is a PSX JRPG about a Nu-Metal band.
-- This show is clearly the most problematic of the three shows we watched. Holy shit the male-gaze in this is bad, as is the character of Leeron Littner.
Erased
-- Wowza this show is good.
-- Sachiko Fujinuma was my personal MVP of any character in all three shows we watched tonight.

Despair free.

Loved every second.
It feels like we're now in the resolution sequence here as all the pieces fall into place, so... payoff time

If anyone is interested you can catch up to the entire Attack on Titan series and a whole bunch of other related stuff with 20 bucks, it's a pretty amazing deal if you are into it I believe

It's also kinda hard to judge just from a few eps, sadly.
Yeah, takes about 8 episodes or so.
That's not true at all. They added in recaps where the fanservice material goes in the DVD episode. TV stations aired the episode.
It was a bad episode in general and the director got super shitty about it which didnt help matters
