@Calwings

Since you like mecha anime, I want to recommend you Fafner. It's one of my most favourite series ever. This series isn't just full of cool mecha battles, but it's full of emotions too. You will cry during it. There's a lot of sadness, but there's also hope. It's such an awesome but underrated series, and pretty obscure. But it does have a dedicated fanbase.

Here's the opening

https://youtu.be/VMOOsaqLP9g

Song is by angela which is a great band and they constantly put out awesome songs for Fafner.

@GiftedACIII and @Cookie_Bag can also back me up about Fafner. I got those two into it and you can be the third person.

I looked up the franchise, and it does look interesting so I added it to my plan-to-watch. I see the 2004 anime and its follow-up movie are on Funimation both subbed and dubbed, but I can't find the Fafner Exodus sequel series anywhere. A google search said it was on Crunchyroll at some point, and CR has a section for the show, but the episodes don't seem to actually be there anymore. So my questions for you:

Is there any place to legally stream Exodus? And does Exodus have an English dub like the first series, or did it end up like the WIXOSS franchise and was only partially dubbed because Crunchyroll picked up the later seasons despite Funimation having the earlier ones?

Not as far as I know.

It doesn't have a dub. Only the first season and movie were dubbed. Not entirely sure why they didn't dub Exodus and put it on physical release in the west.

Calwings posted...

Kinda, but not in a gory way. There is no actual on screen gore, any gore is implied or covered up, but I don't really remember there being any, outside of one or two times. Like Gifted said, Kill la Kill is worse with that kind of stuff.

Out of curiosity, did you search for Fafner topics in OT and find someone saying that or did you ask lol

Also I hope these things don't turn you away. If you start watching it, you do need to watch Exodus when you get there and then the Beyond which is the new series, even if you have to watch it in a less preferred way, but sometimes you have no choice. And you gotta watch those otherwise you wouldn't see the whole story.

All right, thanks for the info. I'll keep all of this in mind.

Nope, didn't search anything. The weekly discussion topic for this week's Back Arrow episode got sidetracked into talking about other mecha anime, and when I mentioned that Fafner had been suggested to me, someone else who remembered me and my aversion to gore brought that up.

Just finished the second half of Vlad Love today after it was released yesterday... that was fucking awful. Episode 7 was decent and episode 11 was actually pretty funny, but the others bored me out of my skull with how dull they were and how many obscure references that I didn't get. I don't know what the hell the writer/director were trying to do with those other episodes, but it didn't work for me at all. What a huge disappointment.

Let me know if you start watching it but I really hope you would. You won't regret it.

By the way I watched the new Back Arrow episode. Pretty good. I love the part where Muga turns into a sword with boosters and Elsha does an ittou ryoudan with it. I think it could be a Super Robot Taisen reference because Sanger with his Grungust Type 0 and his DyGenGuar uses a giant sword that he slices enemies with. His Reishiki Zankantou in particular has boosters on the back that activates when he slices with it. He also says ITTOU RYOUDAN just like Elsha did.

https://youtu.be/zieduj1u5nI?t=128

See for yourself. And be amazed.

Never mind, it was a fake Toki.

Lol, I was wondering what exactly I was going to see because I just kept thinking about how lame that dude was. I kind of started suspecting he wasn't the real one by how much they were emphasizing "look! he has the scar!" etc. Looking forward to seeing the real thing, he seems pretty cool in the flashbacks.

One of the most stand-out characters in the Hara/Buronson bibliograhpy IMO, especially when considering the bleak landscape of HnK/FotNS. Didn't want to ruin the surprise though, so you'll have to forgive my cryptic commentary up there.

Is anybody else reading Rental Girlfriend or whatever it's called? I'm tired of waiting a week for a new chapter that is literally the same thing as the previous ones but everything is just worded differently. God damn I don't think I've read a series that drags as hard as this and I follow Berserk.

Just when I thought Hortensia Saga couldn't rip off Fire Emblem any more, now Alfred and Adelheid's dads have been brought back from the dead to fight them like Nergal's morphs from FE7. Luckily, I really like Fire Emblem and similar fantasy stories, so I'm totally fine with this and I'm enjoying Hortensia Saga a lot. It's turned into one of my favorite shows of the season.

Guessing he's Mongolian (or at least the character he plays is) judging by the name and the fanart in his banner?

The man himself is Japanese, but his gimmick seems to be a weird cross between a Jiangshi (a type of reanimated corpse from Chinese folklore) and a Mongolian emperor. He also does a move literally called the Mongolian Chop, though that move isn't his alone and others have used it before.

Maybe, but chronologically this final arc would have been the start of Rika's wild ride Season 2: Electric Boogaloo since it's the answer to the new loops, with Rika finally accepting her fate to live in the boonies for all eternity as the ending. A bitter sweet ending that's left open for expansion.

Dude is pretty much a white haired Hokuto Shinken Jesus, especially with that move he did that killed the two guards.

This show is actually pretty good. I find myself looking forward to watching my nightly episode. I might check out the manga eventually since the art seems really nice.

I thought all three of these were disappointing. I gave Otherside Picnic and Last Dungeon Kid a 6/10 (one was a horrible adaptation that fucked up an otherwise fun show and the other just felt mediocre and inconsistent) and Vlad Love's horrendous second half ended with me giving it a 5/10.

I'm waiting on the dub, so I've only seen up to ep 4.

Agreed with this though. Dr. Stone's first season was fantastic, and the four episodes I've seen of the second season have been great too.

Catching up on Promised Neverland. My wife has completely abandoned all hope.

In terms of my thoughts as someone who has not read it?

Season 2 is basically the kids never "earning" anything that comes their way. It is all just very lucky stuff and McGuffin's to allow them to succeed. All the tension, slow pace, almost suspense thriller feelings of the first season that made it so good are gone.
