Wow the other one purged already?
Yep, the last post in it was on the 15th. Usually it takes 2-3 days of inactivity for a topic to purge on CE.

Anyways, for some actual discussion... during my week-long hiatus away from the internet and social media, I watched like 2/3's of Frieren: Beyond Journey's End. It's been pretty good, but I wouldn't call it "10/10 greatest anime of all time" good like a lot of people think it is.

Its slow paced and has a certain melancholy, which makes it not for everyone. But I find it to be absolutely fantastic, and an adaptation that uplifts the source material to boot

Holy shit, Cat's Eye is coming back. I've never watched the original, but I know it's an old classic and I've been interested in watching it for a while. I guess I can just try out this new one instead.

Reading the premise and that sounds neat. I might give it a try

Announcing your anime the day the final chapter of the manga comes out is definitely one way to soften the blow

Clearly not Berry, based on that god-awful attempt at a haircut.

If I had a nickel for every magical girl I've seen cut her bangs too short and then have an existential crisis, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

God, Mecha-Ude is so much fun. This series and Acro Trip have been the highlights of the season for me in terms of non-sequels.

Has anyone checked out Mononoke: Phantom in the Rain? I'm not sure if it's an original movie or based on a series but the trailer has me intrigued. It says anime horror but not sure how graphic it is, either.

it seems we're getting a Gnosia anime. Which begs the question: what's the enby version of waifu/husbando? Because this will have two of them

Last month of the season means it's about time for me to start looking at the next season's shows.

https://anichart.net/Winter-2025
https://www.livechart.me/winter-2025/tv

After going through the seasonal chart for Winter 2025, I see 7 new series I'm interested in along with 5 sequels, for 12 shows in total. Out of the new series I'm interested in, the one I'm most excited for is Ameku M.D.: Doctor Detective. The idea of "medical drama like House M.D. but with a cute anime girl" is so simple but so intriguing, and I'm surprised I've never seen an anime like this before until now. Hopefully it doesn't go too far into the nitty-gritty and start showing close-ups of surgeries and messed up bodies though, because if it starts making me queasy then I'll have to drop it. As for the sequels, my hype is through the roof for both the final season of Dr. Stone and for BanG Dream: Ave Mujica.

So what are you guys looking forward to next season?

I will get around to this during the course of the week

But first, I want to point out that the Bunny Girl Senpai dub is dropping today

In completely unrelated news, I know what I'm watching next

Nice of them to finally dub it after like six years. I might watch that after I finish Frieren and the newest batch of Pokemon Horizons episodes.

Was drinking some coffee before bed tonight and while browsing Netflix I decided to watch the first episode of Inuyasha. Really brought me back. Inuyasha was the first "real" anime I watched as a kid after I had a bad cold one winter and I begged my mom to let me stay up until 11PM to watch it on Adult Swim. All the other times I asked she said no but this time, because I was recovering from a cold she allowed me to stay awake.

And I have to say, this anime is better than I remembered. Inuyasha was not on my watch list this winter but I'll likely continue watching it every couple of days when I have time.

And the ending song got me super nostalgic.

Inuyasha is great when things are actually progressing. The early part of the original series up to the Band Of Seven arc is fun, The Final Act was a fantastic way to close out the story, and Yashahime (the next generation sequel) wasn't that bad either. The problem is all of the filler/padding in the middle. At times it just felt like an endless loop of "meet person who needs help, help them, find Naraku, BEEEEEES! , Naraku gets away" for episodes on end. Inuyasha is the #1 series I wish would get the DBZ Kai treatment to trim out the filler/padding, but I doubt it'll happen any time soon. For now, I'd say once you finish the Band Of Seven arc, just jump immediately to The Final Act and skip the rest of the original series.

I have completely lost count of how many times this anime has made me say "God, I wish that were me." Both from the position of the guys and the girls. Seriously, my bisexual ass can't handle much more of this.
