Kyoani's latest anime is actually pretty good!
>>34577 It's just promotional material.
>>34578 I hope that's all it is. Almost feels like an out of season April fools joke.
>>31435 But it is ok.
I think it's been years since we last had a favorite OP/ED thread. whelp, You guys know what to do!
HASHIRE KOUSOKU NO TEIKOKU KAGEKIDAN!! UNARE SHOUGEKI NO TEIKOKU KAGEKIDAN!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_F8AMZhYxhU
Underrated OP for an underrated show. https://youtu.be/N7st-s83IFk
>>34590 I've been meaning to finish this. It's a good show to watch after waking up.
>>34590 Gorg is really cool. >>34588 The game and OVA versions of the OP are even better. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wBboEz_zrVs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ed4HWJt_od4
Here's something you guys might find interesting. 5ch and 2ch's top 30 anime from 2001 to 2019
>>33941 Saiki Kusuo no ฮจ-nan
so surprised to seed doki-doki school hours winning in '05. i had no idea japan was sophisticated enough to enjoy DDSH so thoroughly. first half of the top row is majority non-moe, 2nd half is mostly moe. was ping pong the animation really that long ago? good pic
>>34166 Are you confusing doki doki school hours for poni poni dash?
>>33831 I haven't even seen half of these...
Kissanime has died. The exact reason why is unknown. Kissanime used a legal loop hole and as far as I know, other streaming sites haven't been affected by any recent law changes, so it's a mystery. I'd be willing to bet though that one of the major western streaming sites had something to do with it. I hope this doesn't cause anybody to pay for crunchyroll or fuckimation middle men.
>>34543 >>34546 >It mostly just sits there As soon as my first archiving drive got corrupted I had to start thinking about backing up my back ups. No thank you, archiving needs maintenance and really ends up being a burden. I still generally don't stream but my ultimate solution is to just let go of entertainment media and not worry if I can't find it anymore.
>>34547 Use ZFS(/btrfs) alongside raid(-z). Or if you want to avoid thinking about it, get a synology nas which will internally take of pooling and file system details for you and just expose an smb share.
>>34545 >If you have so much data that can't be found anymore by others, you have a "responsbility" to reupload it so others have access. Just felt like saying, I made a thread for this very purpose a couple years ago here. If anyone sees this and cares feel free to use it. >>29466Post edited on 18th Aug 2020, 5:16pm
>>34547 Yea I know what you mean fighting against futility is suffocating
Believe me you will be like god

Remember when anime characters had noses?
>>34520 They still do.
Same isekai setup you've heard a million times before, but this time the MC has brain damage. Seriously.
Umiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii da~
>>34312 I'm watching this for Kokkoro. Some of the staff worked on KonoSuba, so that carried through in this show.
>>34492 Now that you mention it, there are certainly some similarities.
Season2 announced.
Let's have a thread for "old" stuff (i.e. not from the newest season) that you're catching up on. Pic related: I'm watching Hidamari Sketch x 365 (AKA the second season). I've been thinking for awhile lately that I wanted to watch something with a "weird" character like Osaka/Rin, and Miyako kinda fits the bill, so this was just what I'm looking for. What are you watching?
>>34223 >Sabagebu! - 12 That was an amazing series finale (and especially apropos to current circumstances)
>>34236 It was really amusing. I watched it back in December/early January just before things started getting out of hand, so that's good timing on that too.
Old stuff is fine but when backlog is gone, you want new stuff.
Hanayamata is stunning so far. I had originally avoided this one because the description didn't seem that interesting (it seemed it would be a love-live-esque idol-ish show) and I had also been previously burned by SoLs (read: kiniro mosaic) with foreign tenkousei MCs that ended up having 0 characterization beyond use in comedic gags. I couldn't have been more wrong though. The animation and artwork is beautiful & fluid, the characters are well fleshed out, and the interactions and friendships feel genuine.Post edited on 13th Aug 2020, 11:00pm
Apparently they are doing something with Di Gi Charat for this Saturday, some kind of stream show?
>>34510 Last one from official twitter
Di Gi Charat is organizing a listen-along where you listen to the "top 10" songs that you can see listed on the last image. The way it works seems to be that people will get their own CDs/mp3s/whatevers and organize on Twitter using the tag "ใงใใใฎๅๆๅ็ไผ" which means "Deshiko's synchronized replay meeting" Apparently you also have to follow @dejiko_15th. I'm not sure why because I don't use Twitter but if I'm going to guess I'd imagine it's because the account will tell you when exactly to play the next song. You also get prizes, presumably randomly selected from the people posting with the tag. I don't know if there's anymore or whatever but the two listed in the image are a signature from Kogedonbo and a CD. That art looks cute and getting a CD/signature would be nice (assuming they ship overseas) but I don't use Twitter.
That's cool. Sounds like a fun time.
In this thread, we discuss and point out regular cliches and common occurrences found in anime. a example would be the well known protag seat, but there are many out there, some more obvious than others. Just to start things off, this is one I've been seeing a lot of. Characters who fail to notice obvious things directly in front of them, often times needing someone to point it out for them.
>>34477 Seems like it to me, and perhaps even more so in Japan where "the company" is pretty much your life: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salaryman I don't know how much of this is still true. Do companies still onboard salarymen and provide them employment until retirement?
>>34479 Salaryman culture is dying like similar structures in most of the first world, it's still a thing for 50-60 yo people, not the youngsters. A company is not going to take care of you or give you a job for all your life, that's not "competitive" and japanese exceptionalism can't last forever. Still, that doesn't mean that; >Adults having no discernible characteristics beyond working. It's less real. Adults are incredibly boring creatures. I would say in other countries work is substituted by sex, and little else.
The main characters always win the grand prize, which is more often than not a trip to a hot spring.
>>34473 >Will all the endearing vibrant characters I love also turn into these forgotten automatons Probably. I've seen a few older characters go on monologues and explain that this is what happened to themselves, and it's something that can cause them to become rather jaded people. All they do is work, drink, watch tv, and have little motivation for much else, but that's reality after all. The most boring and lame adults you know were all fun loving kids at one point.
Aikatsu general!
>>34247 Clark Kent disapproves.
What the fug is the head master's problem in Stars? Is he this anal with all the new students?
>Bison coord It's actually python, somehow the idea of a bison themed coord sounds really funny though.
>>34446 The more I watch the more this guy gives off stalker vibes.
I am having withdrawal from the strong lack of imouto anime and manga. Imouto anime was the major reason I became interested and obsessed with anime. Bill 156 is fucking killing me. This isn't fair.
Best imouto coming thru
>>33478 Miho is best imouto.
>>34410 Rosehip is fast but I don't think she's an imouto https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzvWzx65CiY
