Banana Fish is one of my few drops too! The current me, older and wiser, would've also dropped Hanebado after a few episodes instead of finishing it like the younger, dumber me did.

The thing is I never would have dropped Banana Fish if I wasn't dealing with that stuff, that's why I know this timeline line's up. The rest I'm not 100% on, I remember loving how Hanebado looks but can't remember what it was like. Was Harukana Receive....Yuri volleyball?

Looking at the rest of that season

Hanebado - dropped
Tonegawa - dropped
Banana Fish - dropOh this is when we were being evicted ohhhhhhhhhh

Harukana Recieve, Planet With, Angels of Death, Chio's School Road, Cells at Work, Happy Sugar Life, Titan S3, all dropped due to stress I have to assume lol. Asobi Asobase is here but thinking back I may have stopped watching this for a while before going back to finish it.

Wow, OK so I DID watch the first episode? Wasn't a HiDive issue then......

My roommate must not have been into it since we watched everything together at the time.

Revue time.

Really not sure how I managed to skip right past this one when it came out...must have just not had HiDive at the time.

Oh that's wild.

Well Trapezium seems like something that's right up my alley!

Looks like it already released overseas? Hopefully not too long a wait.

My guy like 20% of your followers only joined you because of this what are you doing?

If it's content that people like more power to them, since I'm not watching anyways anymore. I full dropped Spy x Family when it adapted 5 pages into an episode, so my tolerance for this kind of this is low to the ground lol.

I have been informed that this week's Demon Slayer episode adapted 2 pages of manga, and that next week's will as well.

I feel like I need to discover some type of reality bending magic that will allow me to double drop a show I've already dropped, some type of "Super Drop".

I think where it suffered most was the audio, they went with a movie style score even those most of the movie still felt like digest episodes, and as a result the attempts are comedy fell flat a lot of the time that would have landed within an episode. Again, not an issue during the last chunk.

Still would recommend any Haikyuu fan sees it.....and I'm just going to pray they don't pull a Demon Slayer and reformat it into TV episodes to start out another season.

Just got out of the Haikyuu movie with a bunch of friends. Great time, but felt just like a long but slightly rushed episode for most of the runtime. Definitely felt like a movie for the last 3rd or so, though.

Your Lie in April feels like such a huge show when it was airing, not sure why that one seems to have slipped away so much.

Of course I'm not one to talk, I never finished it.

It's about vampires??

Also apparently Wuthering Waves has even more MyGO refs that that lol. I saw a chart that implies the profits of Bang Dream more than doubled in China when it added the MyGO. Even on AO3, a primarily English website, 208 of the current 387 fics as of right now are in Chinese.

Man, the Wiki really just didn't not mention any of that at all besides 1 Nijigasaki movie. It doesn't even mention Hasunosora exists, I only knew that from seeing it on Twitter and reading a couple chapters of the manga.

Beat & Motion is so good.

Seeing lots of Revue Starlight for some reason.

Maybe In should finally tackle that. Feels like it's definitely the best time mood wise.

I don't expect that to be the way these events go at all. Even if they give her motivation, Yukine is clearly a villainous presence in this series and I don't expect Yoru to let that go in the slightest once she knows the full truth. Really can't state enough how off putting it is that when Yoru was asked about her daughter by her real name, she instead refered to her by her stage name, like she doesn't even recognize Kano as her daughter in the first place. That's not even getting into the extremely brief but off putting presence of Kano's father which they haven't event touched on yet.

This episode was the one that really helped bring Jellyfish back to the forefront as a contendor for anime of the season after slipping further behind GBC last week, and I'm so happy it's staying in the fight. My only big worry is, unlike GBC, I think it will be very difficult for Jellyfish to have a fully satisfying conclusion if it isn't planning on a season 2 with the amount of stuff it has set up, of which we likely wouldn't get confirmation of until the last episode airs at the earliest anyways (to be clear, I can easily see the path for another season of GBC as well, but I can actually see a viable path to an ending with the cour if it came to that).

Of course we could get a scenario where the show ends but continues in the novels, which....would be a shame....

You are burying the lead for the far more interesting piece of information in that leak lol.

Look like I was right to do that!

It is my assumption you are talking about Mahiru, so I spent my 15 minutes work break typing up a thing lol.

Yoru, since being brought back to her passion by Kano and especially since the release of their first video, has been pushing harder and harder to advance her skills as an artist both for her own personal sake and for Jelee, especially for Kano herself. There's also the slowly unraveling drive to avoid feeling shame about her goals and her work, obviously touched on since episode 1 but brought back to the forefront with the flashback opening of this episode from school.

At the beginning of this episode we see two key moments outside of that, supported by the way the shots are cut and angled in said scenes, that it's going to take more than her work with Jelee to help her achieve this: Kano's stated lack of having a clear goal anymore, and Kano stating that art Yoru KNEW was faulty was completely fine. When Kano's mother both provided her with a large skill demanding offer to improve her abilities, as well showing she understood that that exact same drawing Kano blindly accepted was in fact not up to the quality she was capable of, Yoru saw this as a clear way to reach her own personal goals as well as improve for Jelee.

Yoru doesn't know just how deep Kano's pain towards her mother goes because Kano hasn't told her, even though she's asked multiple times (the same Kano who has let a kiss go unfollowed up on for almost a YEAR in the show, so clearly she is no stranger to hiding how she feels). If she had, maybe she would have been hesitant to take this offer. Kano also became aggravated before even really trying to talk to Yoru about it. Kano is not in the wrong for taking the job given what she knows and what she needs, Yoru is also not in the wrong for being upset but she is in the wrong for how she handled it, and I expect it's going to be an extremely emotional lack of episodes moving forward for this series repairing the damage.

That is....just 100% not true at all! Something from the past that's been built up through the series causing an emotional outburst and trauma to bubble up to the surface due to a characters not being on the same page isn't reversing character development, it's advancing it.

I don't even know who you're calling a terrible person here??

This episode of Jellyfish was incredible. You just really don't like drama!

Literally was tearing up during the ending credits.

....It's a short? OK....

I don't think I've watched a short since the one about the skeleton who worked at a bookstore (which was good!).

New Jellyfish episode finished I wanna jump in a pool

Christ

Well....maybe they can make something work?

Gonna be a fascinating Bluray release to follow.

Oh I didn't remember the 8 train at all.

And considering it has a "Doom Chimney" I just assumed lol.

no issues whatsoever with the numerical order of the rankings. an 8 is too high for FFXV. drag it through the dirt

Objectively I understand the game has some qualities, but I pretty handily consider it the worst game ever made to me personally IMHO.

and save DOOMTRAIN OVER AND OVER LOOOOOOOOOOOOL

Did you do the Stormblood raids....

Was messing around in the event for fun and Aventurine auto advanced to the front 11 turns in a row with that random advancement buff.

I only know about stray cats.

It's another one where the visuals are selling it for me.

Also not a harem from the comments I am seeing from LN readers, despite the premise.

Yeah this seems like something that may even have been an accident from what ai am hearing. Yuki Naka was, like, in it.

As someone who played a VN that was more than 4 times longer immediately before this the first time, would not say it felt too drawn out myself lol.

The first couple of chapters are a bit slow, but everything after that is just so incredible to me I could drown in them and be content.

Door 2 is probably the game at it's slowest, though, that one could have wrapped things up a little quicker.

Ahhh didn't realize it wasn't listing new seasons as new entries.

GBC spoilers.

Incredible.

Love Live 2 shuts down today only 3 months after it's western launch. Other than the Nijigasaki movie this year, I think we've probably seen the end of Love Live, right? Hasunosora doesn't seem like it's anything. Maybe I should finally watch Nijigasaki.

Oh yeah this would have literally zero impact on the even if she goes to jail (which she probably won't anyways). The manga is very popular and is my primary source, but it's not the main material.

Yeah, someone else is the writer.

And it's an LN before it's a manga of course.

Uh oh

Not everything can be "What Do You Do at the End of the World? Are You Busy? Will You Save Us?"

I liked Home Alone 3 when In was a kid.

Which means it's basically The Phantom Menace of Home Alone movies.

Amazing GBC episode this week, the dynamics between these characters is excellent. Also some of the funniest stuff in the show so far.

Apparently the production for Whisper Me a Love Song isn't going great. I'll link the post on the anime board where I read about it because I don't have a twitter account and can't read the twitter thread (the link is in there though)

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/2000121-anime-and-manga-other-titles/80780461

I've been enjoying Whisper despite this, so I'm sad to hear its production is so rough. I guess its impressive that I wouldn't even call it the worst adaptation of the season. Animation-wise, the latest episode of A Condition Called Love was pretty ugly too (though, like with Whisper, I love the story and forgive its flaws). Writing-wise, the clear loser of the season is still Unnamed Memory lol.

It's really tragic. The week to week production pipeline just isn't tenable even under GOOD conditions, much less this nightmare. The worst part is that you can see what it would have been from episode 1, but that show and team simply doesn't exist anymore, it may as well have been an OVA special.

Given the framing of this topic, a post like that also comes with transphobic undertones.

Oh I've lost track of what title we were on for attempt #6 lol.

Oh that's dumb but not bannable so I assume a KoS?

I apparently was lucky enough to miss any posts they'd made anywhere.
