I'm convinced the makers of flip flappers were on drugs. Prove me wrong.

Not drugs, Amorphous.

>>32061
Japan does not do drugs.

>>32067
Yes, they do. It's just publicly shamed, so it's not talked about openly.

>>32100
If it isn't talked about openly yet it is highly shamed what makes you think they do? Certainly it would not be common.

The guy who draws Yotsuba keeps on getting stopped for inebriated driving and theres pills in the car every time. Psychedelic mushrooms were legal in Japan until about 15 years ago. The purple smoke hoozuki blows from his pipe is meant to imply opium smoke, but someone noticed and thats why it was removed in later seasons. There are still people who will insist that hemp has been cultivated in Japan for 10000 years strictly as a source of fiber and nutrition, but they're lying hokkaido-hemp.net/en-history.html
All of this in country of people who go outside looking and behaving completely normally but when they're behind closed doors they're jacking it to the weirdest /h/ they can lay their hands on.

You also have Takabe Ai, who was caught with drugs (rumor was cocaine). She was known for voicing Agiri Goshiki from Kill Me baby, a character who funny enough looked and acted like she was on drugs (probably weed).

The summer season is almost over. What shows did you guys enjoy the most? Did they live up to your expectations?

I watched Machikado, Sou nan desu ka, and Joshikousei no Mudazukai. Machikado was a very heartwarming anime and definitely among my personal favorite kirara adaptions. Sounan desu ka was also a very enjoyable and quick watch. Hopefully both of them get a season 2.

I felt JK no Mudazukai was a bit more uneven comedy wise; some pieces were quite brilliant while others fell flat. I also much preferred the slice of life parts in the middle few episodes over the romance subtext they added at the end. The OP and ED are very catchy though.

Is there anything you're looking forward towards for the autumn season? The selection seems pretty meager for SoL, but "Rife is Beautiful" from Studio 3Hz looks interesting. Their animation and artwork has been consistently quite good, and since this is an adaption hopefully it can avoid the issues of plot quality with some of their original works (Sora no Method/Princess Principal. Though Flip Flappers was excellent).

From this season I really enjoyed Machikado Mazoku, El-Melloi and Cop Craft, for very different reasons. Machikado is very heartwarming and fun, El-Melloi has a lot of intrigue to it and Cop Craft has that fun buddy cop atmosphere to it (though I think it's having some production problems, since each episode seems to look worse than the last). I'm also meaning to go back and watch Granbelm, on a recommendation.

What I'm looking forward to the most from next season is Houkago Saikoro Club. I really like that manga, it has cute girls and is about board games, which I really enjoy. I'm also looking forward to the Yuruyuri and Gochiusa OVAs. As far as TV goes, I'll probably watch GBF 2, Hi Score Girl, No Guns Life and Babylonia. I might also look into Rife is Beautiful, now that you've mentioned it, since I really enjoyed Princess Principal and I like hobby club series.

Machikado exceeded my expectations. I think it will be a classic for years to come now, but I didn’t enjoy much else. Tejina-sempai was fun for what it was but was a botched adaptation, and I dropped a couple things like dumbbell (had too much male focus and should’ve been a short) and Takagi (I sat through the first season but I couldn’t be bothered this time).
Next season looks like a backlog season outside of OVAs for series like YrYr and Gochiusa. I might give the series you mentioned a try, but I’m kind of hesitant after Princess Principal.

They, thankfully, did not botch the loli fanservice.

>>33483
Yeah, that was nice. Tilarna is very cute.

>>33484
Thank god for that.

Time for ice-cream before the next season...

Why?

Oh if you're looking for a short (5 min) to fill the slice of life void, there's Null Peta.

Also in addition to Rifle is Beautiful there's the Black Fox movie animated by Studio 3Hz releasing today.
