MitCol is a.....powerful show.

7 episodes down of Devilman and I still don't really understand what they're doing with the direction. The escalation of things is cool but like....they jump around so much with stuff.
---

whoa i cannot stop twinkling entering the main plot!?
---

I finally watched more of Shiki and it's really good so far (just finished episode ten). I'm enjoying the slow, building paranoia as the extent of the situation reveals itself to the various groups of characters.

HNNNNNNNN

I'm a bit embarrassed it took me basically until Azami's appearance to learn who best girl in this series was

But yeah.

The original manga jumped around even more.

Ive seen 5 episodes of Dragon Maid now. It still sorta feels like the Kanna show. Fafnir is also amazing. Lucoa would be a better character if they quit focusing on her massive chest so much. Theyve introduced a mage in the normal world now and its a boy even though the OP made me think it was a girl since there arent many guys in this show. I recognized his voice because its the same one as Aladdin from Magi.

Fafnir the only consistently funny character in the show imo.
---

So far the show hasnt been very funny, but its pretty cute

Managed to go to the first Heaven's Feel movie in theaters! It was excellent. It wasn't exactly adapting the best part of the route, but it managed to be exciting from start to finish anyway. The changes they made mostly seemed to be for the best (I'd heard they cut some of Ilya's parts, but the end seemed to be implying that they're just focusing more on her in the next movie...?). The action scenes were fantastic as expected, and all the character interactions seemed to be Fate at its best. I feel like they cut out the best part of the Rin rooftop scene though, which is pretty sad, since that got the biggest laugh in the VN for me. Very much looking forward to the latter two parts (I liked this more than any 2017 movie I saw, incidentally <_<).
---

Oh shit I totally forgot I can watch those now.
---

Also watched Devilman Crybaby. Seemed like a pretty fantastic adaptation of the manga to me, and I loved the manga to begin with! It's nice how much better it treated the female characters. The rappers were a fantastic addition too. I thought the animation and music were fantastic as well, so pretty much every element of the series was perfect, IMO. They even managed to make it a little more coherent than the manga, which could be kind of all over the place (not that that was a big problem, IMO). It's pretty awesome when one of your favorite series gets such a perfect adaptation!
---

I didn't remember Ilya having much content anyways until later on in the route.

But yeah it was really good.
---

Yeah you're probably right about that.

Think I forgot to mention it, but I finished Yuki Yuna Is A Hero S2 as well. This was...mostly good, but there were a few things I wasn't as into. I don't think the slice of life parts in either YY series were as good as those in Washio Sumi, and even those weren't a huge highlight (they just weren't a detractor like in YY). The direction it went in episode 12 was kind of lame and then episode 13 was, once again, far too happy of an ending. I feel like a lot of these modern dark magical girl shows really suck at pulling off endings. Usually they're incredibly contrived and feel way more happy than the show should be considering what came before. Even Madoka's ending was kind of overly happy, but at least it had some consequences. Daybreak Illusion's ending was shitty too. Oddly enough, Magical Girl Raising Project has the best ending of all these series, despite being the worst show in general. Whoda thunk that not having copouts would be a good thing? The show probably could've used more action in general too. Yuna herself was the highlight here. Her dilemma throughout the show was portrayed extremely well. I enjoyed this part a lot.

I preordered the new omnibus of the original series, and I'm actually worried I won't be able to appreciate it, since it sounds like a lot of my favorite things were added in Crybaby.

I shackled myself to stuff that got simuldubbed and even with those I never went back to stuff that were action oriented (minus Titan S2) and watched/voted a bunch of slice of lifes that apparently arent as popular here like Tsurezure Children, New Game S2, Konohana Kitan and Gamers

I've still only watched Washio Sumi, really should catch up. HEY WASSHI made all the SoL parts worth it.

Raising Project likely avoided the issue because it's 1 volume out of, like...8+? The entire anime is basically a prequel to the actual series. It's nuts how that thing goes moving forward.

Which Rin rooftop scene?

Im all for cutting Rin scenes. The more cut the better tbh

The scene where she makes fun of Shirou for masturbating to her.
---

Well yeah, those are the kinds of scenes you cut from a mass market adaptation of a porn game.
---

Uh, it's a perfectly legit scene. You can have people talk about sex in things other than porn nowadays!
---

Regardless, that seems like an easy cut, "the scene where they talk about jacking off". Especially with a series like Fate that has gone hard on western appeal.
---

I feel like it's doubled down on otaku appeal and that's the sorta scene that would've appealed more to Americans in the first place, but sure.
---

You think Apocrypha AKA Fate/Stay Bleach is doubling down on Otaku appeal?

I guess if you consider Prisms Illya a to be a thing that should be acknowledged as existing...

Fate Bleach sign me up

That's what it is.

Everyone's got a Getsuga Tensho.

Kizumonogatari > Heaven's Feel pt 1, but I expect parts 2 and 3 to be better.

Kizu is by far my least favorite part of Monogatari, so there's not much comparison there (though movie 3 at least was good).

Was talking about FGO! On the JP side, there hasn't been a new male character released in the past four months.
---

I thought both parts 2 and 3 were fantastic, which covers 2017

Also NGNL Zero probably better than HF Part 1? But again, definitely won't be better than 2/3 if they're as well-done
---

!

I always forget about NGNL 0. BD's apparently out on February 23rd too! Hype!
