What does the EULA even talk about anyways?

"Everything in this game is a work of fiction and should not be acted upon" and shit like that? what warrants multiple pages lol

Apparently there is a lot to say depending on the region of the world :Shrug:

Recently read this comedy/horror manga called Shibito no Koe wo Kiku ga Yoi. Its episodic and simply follows the main character as he gets roped into hilarious ghost and sci-fi shenanigans. The art is nice and the comedy cues are on point. Read only one volume so far, but Im already enjoying it a lot.

Also tried out The Promised Neverland. Nothing much happens in the first two volumes, but Id say its off to a good start with its mystery/horror/sci-fi plot. The art is also top notch, as expected from Pone. The Thai print release is on low quality paper and ink though, which is a real shame.

Interesting, for the first one I wouldn't think it would be a comedy. Might have to check it out

For the second one, I've seen the cover around. Literally just learned after all these years that the girl in the front is a girl

Well, Shibito no Koe is what Id call a comedy/horror because its definitely dark and serious, but written and drawn with a degree of intended comedic effects. For the most part, its not straight up comedy like, say, the early part of Dusk Maiden X Amnesia though.

Oh god, so mildly popular anime youtuber digibro has also made a video in support of Mayoiga, one of the worst animes I've ever watched in my life, on top of Mother's Basement making a few vids about it saying it was good. Honestly, I always hear about why this thing is supposed to be a parody, and for all of the points, my response has been a big fat "oh." Like who gives a shit if nobody dies in the whole thing? It's funny in Hot Fuzz where literally nobody dies in a big ass shootout because the entire sequence is greatly exaggerated and a billion shots are fired. That sequence absolutely succeeded in being a parody of the works in similar genre because the point was clear in the main character being a terrific cop, and the scene was so violent and explosive that nobody dying was an unbelievable conclusion.

Is it so unbelievable in Mayoiga that nobody dies? No... there were barely any threats of death to begin with lol... Somebody trips and looks like a dead body, so they think there's a killer of sorts for the rest of the anime. But this ends up coming across as trying to make a Friday the 13th movie without Jason where the first scene has a person lying on the ground. Was it worth spending an entire anime to make that one joke? No, it wasn't even all that funny to begin with.

Honestly, the more I hear about why 2-3 people in the world thinks Mayoiga is the funniest anime ever made, the more I hate it. I think it's one of the worst animes ever made

Mayoiga is basically The Room of anime

you could even pinpoint the part where the show itself stopped caring about what was going on

No, The Room is actually hilarious because it was an alchemy of genuine incompetence and a guy who was willing to follow through with his vision to the end, no matter how crazy shit got.

Mayoiga was made by a guy who actually made quality work before but had a half-baked vision and a half-baked effort for this anime. He had literally 3 jokes, stretched them out by inserting insultingly boring episodes of people just standing around and talking with no lead up to any jokes or interesting ideas.

Honestly the show has 3 jokes they spend an entire anime season to tell, and they aren't even good jokes

Both the main director and the writer were involved in a ton of pretty decent works, no clue as to how much they were involved in many of them. I think an article mentions they both worked on Girl Und Panzer

Right, Mayoiga. Its defnitely a... memorable show, if anything. The first episode was pretty nice, but the rest are just awful and not even that funny. And while its apparent that the main characters are all eccentric people, their eccentricity arent utilized that well in the story. Its a bad example of Japanese horror-comedy, Id say.

I liked two of its songs though. The Unlucky Hippo and Ketsuro are way too good for the series itself.

I guess I hated the show so much going into the ending that it heavily soured my listening of the Unlucky Hippo. My reaction at the time was more like "no... no you're not ending it like this... NOOOOOOOO I WASTED MY LIFE"

So about that Digibro video... I can totally see where he's coming from about good things being misunderstood or disliked for not being what people expect them to be, because there are a few things I actually like that aren't exactly what one would expect from the story synopsis/cover/PV etc. There doesn't seem to be much substance in it regarding Mayoiga itself though.

And it looks like The Unlucky Hippo song has been around since 1980 or something. It's by Noko Inoko and was based on the Solomon Grundy nursery rhyme. TIL.

Yeah, but I dunno if Mayoiga of all things is a great representation of breaking expectation. I'm gonna judge it for what it is, a poor and unfunny parody with episodes after episodes of waste of time. I understood his vid. The vid itself was fine but it's the constant support of this terrible show that irks me. Especially when the comments are talking about how this video motivated them to watch it after, and as people are, suddenly people are gonna love it because a popular guy said it was good. Happens all the time.

I only remember one episode of that series that might involve what you're talking about (the episode with the bug neuroi running around in the base) and, if I'm remembering correctly, that thing crawled into the underwear of a few different girls that episode, not just one.

That's not how this works. Both choices are separate, and I'm watching one from each. I'm watching Baka & Test OR Little Busters, AND I'm watching Tutu OR Tsubasa OR Utena.

THAT'S NOT HOW THIS WORKS. Right now, I am picking ONE show from EACH list to watch first, NOT all of the shows from ONE list. THAT'S IT. The other shows there, I will eventually watch in the future, but right now I only want to pick TWO shows: ONE out of the first two listed and ONE out of the last set.

Cal, tsubasa would be a terrible, horrible idea for you:
a)It's 52 episodes by itself(and that's not even counting the necessary other and related series, xxxHolic, which is either 13 or 26 itself too).
Oh and b)There's multiple scenes of people ripping their eyeballs out.The show isn't the "happy go lucky romantic adventure" it looks like.

It's 2 separate seasons of 26 episodes, so I would split it by watching one season, then switching to a different show, then watching the second season. And I've heard about the whole "Clampverse" thing where their shows are connected in weird ways, but is watching xxxHolic really necessary to enjoy Tsubasa?

Oh and b)There's multiple scenes of people ripping their eyeballs out.The show isn't the "happy go lucky romantic adventure" it looks like.

Well, that's not good. I didn't know that, so thanks for the heads up. At least some of you guys here were actually useful to me.
