....In fact, I know it could have worked, because Akudama Drive was a great anime!

Oh my god, I loved that, and I've never seen anybody talk about it.

Is Brawler being my favorite a hot take?

I don't watch a ton of anime, so maybe I'm not the best judge, but I saw it advertised randomly on... Something (Maybe Hulu or Netflix?), and I watched it and loved it.

Naw dude I fucking screenshotted the hell out do that mid-season fight in the rain, Brawler rules.

I absolutely recommend this anime to anyone, Kodaka killed it with this one. I even got the shiny collectors edition box with the art book and cards!

I'm hoping he continues the good content with Rain Code.

I think we just became best friends.

Akudama Drive actually did get a lot of buzz while it was airing, especially the ending, but like most seasonal anime post 2013 or so that didn't "catch", it just kind of disappeared from public eye.

There was definitely a very slight push for it, because at the time I didn't subscribe to any anime streaming services or anything, but I was still made aware of it. It just didn't last long, and I assumed like nobody watched it.

It was pretty popular with the B8 anime people. Won several awards in our little AotY competition.

I should probably pay more attention to the anime topics here, now that I find myself routinely enjoying them. Thanks for the note.

EDIT: I'll be honest, I fully went from somebody who was team "anime is dumb" to team "I love this shit."

probably not a hot take, but the overarching mystery in every DR game is terrible. i accept it as a plot driver to get the class trials to happen, but every time the truth is revealed, it's awful and drags on hours and hours past its welcome.

dr1 has no good characters. toko comes the closest. dr2 has about half the cast squarely good; maybe two thirds or so are at least passable.

drv3-3's disappointing outcome is so hilariously disappointing that it loops around again and becomes doubly amazing because of it

Yeah I agree with this. Wish they were just competing for a cash prize or something.

Shuichi vs Kaede isn't a hot take.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/10517349/chapters/23213121 if you want a version where Kaede lives and Shuichi dies instead.

I don't "hate" Shuichi, but Kaede shows more personality in her one case than he does all game.

I found him an uninspired protagonist for sure.
