Another VRMMO anime, but this time the main character wears a bear suit.
>>34938 >Also apparently there's yuri Is it actually yuri (or even kirara-style shoujo ai) in any sense other than having "two female MCs"? People said that about bofuri too, so at this point I would be shocked (kuma shocked!) if those claims turn out to be valid this time.
Nice season finale, and the entire series turned out to be much better than I would have expected given the first episode and general isekai-esque description. it's really closer to Endro than Bofuri: more of a slice-of-life, and though her powers are a deus-ex-machina it really doesn't matter since unlike Bofuri the focus isn't on the wacky things they're doing but on the friendships and people she gets to meet. The ending scene also reminded me of that of Kemono Friends ("tabenaide kudasai... tabenai yo"). By the way, apparently a season 2 has been announced.
>>35273 Thanks for bumping the thread. I wanted something similar to Bofuri as I'm enjoying it a bit right now so I'll look into this show and its supposedly horrific wolf-killings.
>>35303 The first episode is anomalous with the pacing and tone of the remainder of the show; but other than that I think if you liked Bofuri and generally enjoy SoL there's a good chance you will enjoy this too.
Aikatsu general!
>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 started watching Friends and I find the main character's voice is really distracting. They sound very amateurish, but that seems to fit with the character since she's fresh off the streets and is new to the whole idol thing. I wonder if this wasn't intentional so as to have the VA improve and evolve over the year long course of the series along with the character.
>>34506 They try to play it off down the line as him being over protective of someone who's showing warnings signs and wanting to stop her before she go too far and hurts herself, but I don't really buy it that kind of backpedaling. If that were the case he would have tried to give her proper guidance and lead her down the right path, not bully her and try to get her expelled.
Is anyone here keeping up with this?
Just checked it out: not bad at all! Snappy, well-paced, and a nice selection of music. Never thought I'd see "cute girls use a DAW" checked off the list.
I watched the first episode today. I liked it. main girl is really expressive, the animation is really good, it has a unique idea, so it's a lot of fun. I think I'll keep watching the rest.
I can't help but mishear "wow war tonight" as "world war tonight."Post edited on 21st Nov 2020, 10:12pm
DJ, spin that wheel!
A show about train girls coming up with ideas for merchandise to make trains popular.
I tried watching a couple ep of it, and it felt a bit lacking in direction. I know they don't have a lot of time to work with but it didn't seem like they established the characters or the setting particularly well either before throwing you into a plot line that feels like filler from a longer running series. Seemed like you'd need to have at least some prior knowledge about these characters to get the most out of this.
Why was the older thread deleted? While I've only finished the first episode, I thought it was at least promising as a slice of life. Given that the story is about struggling comedians, I think it's to be expected that the jokes will fall a bit flat. (It also doesn't help that the fuckishit subs supposedly clobber any semblance of a joke. There are alternate ones made courtesy of someone on 4/a/, but they're delayed by a week). I wonder if they'll keep the train joke as a running gag throughout the show. At some point it's got to elicit a chuckle at least.
>>34979 There was no argument. The OP took my opinion as a personal insult and decided to hold the thread hostage. There are other websites to use if you expect the userbase to give blind praise to everything and don't want to see contrasting opinions.
>>34976 Quite a shame, I thought it had potential but I supposed they took the struggling comedian angle a little too realistically. I feel like there is too much tie-in with real life which takes away quite a lot of immersion and the SoL. The senpai konbi feels so out of place and their amateur voice acting is painful to listen to, at least they are semi-relevant to the plot in the latest episode for once. I like the RDeco duo though.
>>35056 >R-Deco R凸 is a cool name, and that kanji is very neat. I also feel those two personalities play off each other better than Mafuyu/Fubiki.
A haruhi reference!
Are there series you'd like to see an adaptation of or predict would be adapted in the near future? A few that comes to mind for me would be Dungeon Meshi, 'Tis Time for Torture, Princess, Chotto Ippai and The Ride-On King. The first three I expect would be adapted in the near future especially the first two as they are quite popular. I can see Dogakobo doing Chotto Ippai and 'Tis Time For Torture, Princess.
>>34804 >I also suspect I'm not the only one in the camp of adapting Jahy-sama. I'd like an adaptation of that. I think it would be fun, I can picture a smug voice for Jahy adding a lot to it.
>>34804 I ended up reading Mizore-chan and it's great, unfortunate that the series was dropped by the scanlators. An adaptation would be nice.
https://twitter.com/somatoma/status/1316756737647505408 I completely did not expect this but Somato's Shadows House is getting an anime adaptation. I'm excited.
>>34804 Off-tangent but the mangaka of Jahy has a youtube account.
According to Anime Japan 2019, these are the most recognisable anime characters here. How many do you recognise?
>>34241 BOOM BOOM. Explode that keyboard!
>>34453 No.
>>32666 >>32672 Lupin III doesn't look like that anymore... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YPit-LFyXi0
>>32672 >>32673 Akubi
As always, this season comes with a lot of short anime that people might not bother to make threads for, so I figure we might as well put them in one place.
>>34819 Considering how long it's been since the last season, I'd assume so.
>>34825 The manga ended a while ago though.
It's been a while since I've seen an anime this legitimately funny. In a way it reminds me a lot of aqua teen hunger force of all things, Something about the style of animation and type of humor in this feels similar. Almost feels like it'd be right at home on adultswim, before it turned to full on absurdist stoner garbage.
I was half expecting this to turn into a tourism commercial.
Which are the best anime girl hairstyles? Select your favourites.
>>34921 >What logic? They're compromising their eye health, risking lazy eye and reducing their depth perception. But with all that in mind, isn't easier to believe that someone would let their hair get that way as a result of negligence or vanity instead of someone intentionally keeping their bangs long but the rest of their hair short? The type of person to keep their hair short would probably not see a good reason to half blind themselves. >I don't think the emo aesthetic is traditional either. I was referring to the length of the rest of the hair. Short hair is not as traditional on women as long hair.
>>34920 >I don't understand what motivations the character would have behind such a hairstyle. First time I ever saw the single eye covering hairstyle was with a character who had Heterochromia.
Long hair makes me want to cuddle for some reason
I like the faux cat-ear/hair flaps style.
Celebrity impersonator Yu Morisawa has become very famous locally for her uncanny portrayal of Creamy Mami, even fooling people who knew the legendary idol. She seems to have a personal connection to Mami, but what could it be? Yu was just a kid when the singer disappeared!
deathnote slice of life after story set in hell with L, light and ryuk exchanging witty banter around the kotatsu and playing increasingly complicated pranks on each other.
>>28939 That sounds hilarious, and much better than Death Note.
>>28937 Why sequel? Make something new from scratch.
>>34776 That's not how it works...
I think there is absolutely no denying it. The 'golden age of fan-subbing' is (or has been) officially over. Feels weird to live through one of these things.
>>34705 Nah my bad, I should have figured that.
>>34692 >That leaves only Erai ripping CR? They're better at it anyway. HS rips didn't even retain the very basic typesetting.
It has been dead for years. Did you just notice? Regardless, you can still find them on AB.
>>34720 I'm just grateful that fansubs remain ever-present while fansub drama has largely been forgotten.
