Cells at Work beated. I should've dropped this. The show was generally competent and interesting, but somehow also totally boring. It was way too repetitive, and when it tried to do something different it basically totally failed (like the flashback episode). The main flaw was White Blood Cell. He's basically super powerful and solves a lot of situations on his own, so the show's not that interesting while he's around (plus he's not a super interesting character, since he's basically perfect). All the invading bacteria in general were kinda meh. The pacing of the show felt too slow in general as well, like they were adapting a chapter per episode or something. The last two episodes were more interesting than the rest, but even they were super slow. A lot more should've been happening.

The other weird thing is that early on I felt like the production values were great. Everything looked really good. The show just fell apart in that respect in the later episodes though. I hate when they have long scenes where it's just flipping back and forth between two still frames for a minute.

1. Asobi Asobase
2. Steins;Gate Zero
3. Encouragement of Climb S3
4. Planet With
5. Chio's School Road
6. Harukana Receive
7. Cells at Work

Damn I cant figure out what zombie movie/show this DanMachi stage is referencing. Most were easy like Casino Land = Zombie Land and Beginning of the Dead = Dawn of the Dead. I cant figure out what the hell Prey at the Holy Bath House is supposed to be though.

Just got back from the My Hero Academia movie

Ok so this movie has some silly stuff in it, and it doesn't really offer anything that the TV series didn't already. None of that really matters though because it still managed to put a huge smile on my face from start to finish. Don't really have anything else to say overall, but I do have a few scattered comments about specific things:

--One of the most hilarious things about this movie to me was the evident ease with which the characters were able to flawlessly communicate with one another through nothing but subtle eye twitches. By like the 5th time this scene happened I just started laughing out loud and I think I might have been the only one in the theater laughing at that.

--I'm really glad that the movie started and ended with shots of two bald eagles flying through the sky. Just in case, you know, we forgot the movie had AMERICA in it.

--Wish we got more time for just random Class 1-A shenanigans, though that's also something I've been saying about the TV series itself.

--I was not ready for the fangirl squealing at shirtless Kirishima from behind me at the theater. (And whenever anyone from Class 1-A appeared but that's the main one I remember)

--I wish they didn't take the direction they did with Dave's character.

That happened in my theater too but it was more for the....implication of Kirishima being shirtless with Bakugo in the room just chilling. And honestly, this movie gave A LOT OF MATERIAL for that ship. Which I don't personally mind so that was fun.

I've wanted to get into JoJo for a long time, but it seems like a pretty big commitment. Not sure I'm ready for that now.

It is a big commitment, but JoJo is one of the best things you can watch. It's very, very worth it.

The nice thing about JoJo, is each series is a different storyline with different characters. So could break it up and watch it part by part. Season 1 covers Parts 1 and 2, the most directly connected of the series. It is 26 Episodes. Season 2, Stardust Crusaders, Covers half of Part 3. Season 3, Stardust Crusaders Battle In Egypt covers the second half of Part 3. The total episodes in Stardust Crusaders is 48. Then you have season 4, Diamond is Unbreakable. This covers Part 4 and is 39 episodes. The upcoming season, covers Part 5 and we dunno how long it'll be.

For reference, the Manga is 8 Parts currently.

Thanks for the info. Has the anime been a good/decent adaption of the manga thus far?

As a huge fan of the JoJo Manga, the anime is a fantastic adaptation of the source material. I'd say it's the best way to to view JoJo. Atleast until you catch up. Because then you need to keep reading to get to the best Part, Part 7.

My personal opinion:

Jojo anime for Part 1 and 2 is an amazing adaptation. Improves the source in every way.

Part 3 is a competent adaptation. Makes some things worse and other things better. Basically equal with the manga I think.

Part 4 anime is an amazing adaptation as well. Probably improves the source even more than the 1st anime did (though with the benefit that I read the duwang scanlations of the manga for this part).

As much as SBR is definitively the best JoJo, I don't have a lot of faith in an adaptation! Best case is CGI horses, worst case is a full CGI period.

I feel 5 is the one that's going to benefit most from an anime adaption. Not just because it's the only part with an incomplete good translation (at least when I read it), but there's a few stand abilities I need to see animated
