Quite a busy day of new episodes for me today.
* Dr. Stone: Stone Wars ep6 (dub): Kind of ironic that an episode of a Japanese anime has one of the best and most realistic depictions of the American justice system that I've ever seen. Awesome episode though, one of Chrome's crowning moments. * Back Arrow ep14: Fine Alter and Emperor Zetsu are a perfect pair of complete fucking psychopaths, but Fine regained control and had a badass moment of her own. Best boy Shu's genius mind comes through again as well. Great stuff. * Shaman King (2021) ep2: I never watched/read the original series all those years ago, so I'm coming into this reboot completely blind like I did the Fruits Basket reboot. Yoh and Amidamaru are great, Ren is so comically early-2000's edgy that I can't help but laugh at it, and Anna already seems pretty interesting too. Manta is annoying though, and the animation seems pretty mediocre so far, so it's not all good, but I'm enjoying it overall. * The World Ends With You ep1: I played the original game, but I never beat it and barely remember much of it anyways, so this anime is basically a new experience for me. The story felt pretty rushed (like Assault Lily levels of rushed) but at least it seems interesting so far. The art style and animation is awesome, and it's actually doing a really good job at mixing 2D and CG in a way that looks good too. * Blue Reflection Ray ep1: https://i.imgur.com/DuV9yfM.jpg Plus I'm still waiting for ep2 of Cardfight Vanguard OverDress later tonight, and I now have two Friday chibi shorts to watch. https://i.imgur.com/pkjTuqG.png --- "Someday I too will fly... and find you again!" https://imgur.com/urDb8LF ...

Guess I'm watching two precure series atm. Binging one of the older ones + following the current one as it airs is a pretty regular thing for Precure fans.

Another OP I really like:
https://youtu.be/hrz8_uUyxDA The episode itself was better than the first one, just due to it not going sicko mode on the pacing lol. I'm enjoying the characters and the shamisen performances a lot. Still getting Kono Oto vibes, so if you liked that you'd probably like this one, too. I have Vivy ep 3 (hype!) and 86 ep 1 to watch here in a bit, too. 86 I've heard a lot of great things about from LN fans, but I'm trying to keep expectations in check. --- Playing: Valkyria Chronicles 4, Trio of Towns ...

Unfortunately, my fears seem to have come true and I'm dropping Vivy.
EDIT: Based on what I've heard from some of the LN readers, it looks like 86 is also a no-go for me. Jeff AKA Snoopy posted... Should I watch S1-3 dubbed and then move to the sub?

Oh sorry, Yugioh GX In that case, it depends. If you actually want a good, coherent story with character development that actually makes sense, watch it subbed all the way through. If you want comedy and stupidity while the story itself is flimsily held together with paperclips and a wad of chewing gum, then watch the dub. If you do that, the whiplash when you hit that final season that's only subbed will hit you like Elemental Hero Neos punching you in the face. --- "Someday I too will fly... and find you again!" https://imgur.com/0XBygKI ...

Watched Higehiro. I see two potential directions this show can go and so far it seems to be going the wholesome heartstring tugging way. Hopefully it stays that way instead of going the Usagi Drop Manga route.

Watched the first episode of Tokyo Revengers. Didn't care for the art style but it was interesting enough for me to watch at least a couple more episodes. Didn't really expect
I'm going to try to pick up at least three or so shows this season. I'll likely watch Nagatoro next. Kind of want to watch Blue Reflection but I want to play the game first, I have it on PS4 and it's been on my backlog forever. Also @Juhanor I got to when Souther is first introduced in FOTNS.

But there were too many variants like chika wins, someone loses, Everyone loses, etc. I decided to keep it simple and just limit it to three outcomes: 1) A clear win for Kaguya (AKA "Kaguya wins" or "Miyuki loses") 2) A clear win for Miyuki (AKA "Miyuki wins" or "Kaguya loses") 3) A no contest (AKA anything besides the above, like both losing, someone else winning, etc.) I've watched 8 episodes so far, and I have the score at an even 7-7 with 10 no contests up to this point. --- "Someday I too will fly... and find you again!" https://imgur.com/HgnymHY ...

Yeah, it was the Early Days OVA I watched. Hit me with the trivia! Alright, here's the lead in: Headgear as you may know, consisted of Masami Yuki, Mamoru Oshii, Yutaka Izubuchi, Kazunori Ito and Akemi Takeda. Oshii had made his mark in anime already with Urusei Yatsura, Dallos and Angel's Egg. However, one year before Early Days, he'd made a radio drama called While Waiting for Red Spectacles, and a live action film titled The Red Spectacles. https://i.imgur.com/vSAw3AH.jpg These would lead to amongst other things, the live action sequel, Stray Dog, and the more popularly known anime film Jin-Roh. While the later titles were focused more on the name of the police unit, "Kerberos," the two Red Specs referred specifically to the visage of the protect gear which the unit wore. From Stray Dog: https://i.imgur.com/hJhLzAe.jpg And Jin-Roh: https://i.imgur.com/0s6w6jY.gif Now for the specific trivia. The lead role in the Red Specs film went to Shigeru Chiba (that's him in the trenchcoat up above), who had previously worked with Oshii on Urusei Yatsura. Perhaps because of this familiarity, he ALSO had a key role in Patlabor as mechanic Shigeo Shiba https://i.imgur.com/2Th4mvp.jpg Who just so happens to be named similarly to him and look exactly like him https://i.imgur.com/ykRncyr.jpg And for the final bit, which IIRC happens in one of, maybe the first film, but isn't by any means a major spoiler https://i.imgur.com/MyK6mSz.png ...

The wait until this movie is finally available to watch outside of Japanese theaters is going to be hell. I haven't been this excited for a sequel to an anime in... honestly, I can't even remember. I don't think I've ever been this excited for a sequel. I'm hyped, I'm pumped up, and after seeing the expanded ending of the recap movie to set up this sequel, I'm fucking terrified.
