Board 8 > Anime & Manga Discussion Topic 287: Pay your fucking VAs

(+) Yeah! (+)

Wasn't feeling the first episode, but yes the 2nd episode was much better.

Lol LTM are you from the future with that topic title?

Anyways this season sucks. Can't believe we got a new season of Gundam and all the characters are unlikable and or dumb.

This was about Mob Psycho and Jujutsu Kaisen, just an unfortunate coincidence!

Also Witch of Mercury GREAT, favorite show of the season still! Loving how it's blowing up so much to, this series is getting crazy popular, more than IBO was at the time it started up for sure.

8/10 is not feeling it?

I just watched my 5000th anime episode! It was episode 3 of Do It Yourself, which is a massive upgrade from my 2500th episode (which was one of the Brave Witches episodes). This is all according to MAL, which counts everything as an episode and doesn't include any rewatches.

Now I begin my long journey to 10000.

I apparently have 21,430... Stuff like that week where I watched 150 Precure episodes probably contributes.

7661

Well, DBS should be receiving some kind of news in the next month or so. That's official.

Mewnwhile in Boruto, Eida's love quest is off to a fantastic start(if you call dragging an unconscious body onto your lap fantastic).

One Piece 1064 You can't just reveal Vegapunk talking to Dragon, then go on a break week.... its not fair

lol so much for Bonney's power not working on strong haki users

Dragon Quest: The Adventures of Dai completed with 100 episodes

It's a shame it took this long for this series to get a proper anime that covered the entire story

Laid-Back Camp S3, aw yeah.

Hope the movie comes out soonish!

The Little Lies We All Tell episode two was great, and Do It Yourself and Bocchi the Rock are both still good.

But, god damn, Raven of the Inner Palace ep 4 blew them all out of the water. It's such a beautiful anime in so many different ways. I love the way it's blending the supernatural with real, emotionally human stories. It has drama but not melodrama. It's great so far. If it stays even remotely as good as it has been, it'll be my anime of the year (granted only Birdie Wing is really competition on that front since Summer sucked and I've only seen two anime from Winter).

Sasuke Retsuden now available. Side Story of Naruto getting sick because of the 10 tails chakra and Sasuke looking for a cure.

Who's Naruto?

Himawari's father.

Trying a new show called Mieruko-chan. Of the 3-4 shows I tried (Warriors of Sigrdrifa was going good until the annoying girls showed up), Mieruko has potential. I'm hoping for more from the premise, but it'll really come down to how the main character handles things. If it's just "I don't see ghosties" jumpscares for 12 episodes, it could get boring pretty fast. My old favorite bullshit "forced fanservice" is rearing its head too.

It goes away as the series progresses

I liked Mieruko-chan a lot. It rarely scared me personally, but I found it fascinating to watch the story of a girl living in a real-life horror movie where she wasn't allowed to flinch at any of the jumpscares.

Personally, the fanservice was the only reason I made it through 5 episodes.

I feel like the series is inconsistent on how the rules work, and I never accepted the implication that "bad things happen if she reacts"

Announced for November 4 in Japan! That's much sooner than I expected. Should be fansubbed soon after.

Dear lord the last few minutes of today's CSM were such a fucking rush.

Also this episodes ED is an all time great.

didn't know they made a follow up to the Death Note 2nd opening

That was my exact thought lol.

I was hoping something in csm would capture this energy

Good to know Chainsaw Man knows how to make a first impression. I want my own chainsaw dog.

Ichigo still feelin' like Number One

You can't blame them Bleach is the bigger franchise and it started off SO hot.

Chainsaw will catch up

Oh there's no doubt.

I'm more surprised to see Spy x Family trailing.

Also not seeing anyone talk about it in general.

poor Spy x Family Part 2 though

that episode really had much to do about nothing though so maybe it'll rebound

Why does Shine keep posting these polls from tiny fansites? I don't get it. Here's another one from a site that gets over 15x as many votes as anime corner:

Even Reddit's bigger than Anime Corner...

Shine is in the pocket of Big Bleach

I prefer the ones where mob is in the top 3

Anime Corner is Gundamracist.

Man I really need to try Blue Lock. I have loved both thr soccer manga I've read.

Its the one that shows up on my Facebook feed lol

For the most part the shows are almost all the same on those three top 10s anyways

So if anyone is interested in Vampire Hunter D, 29 volumes of the novel are on Humble Bundle for another 4 days.

With the increased quality of OP scenes showing up nowadays, it makes how dog shit their sound effects are all the more offensive.

It didn't matter when it was practically a motion comic!

Toei still uses the same soundbank from DBZ

Anya and Mr. Doggie best thing ever!

God this show is so good.

Just bought the full Chainsaw Man manga, big Target sale. Had to pick up 6 and 8 from Amazon though.

A good MHA chapter.

Who woulda thunk?

All you gotta do is cut away from all the main characters.

I feel the complete opposite. It's basically just "don't blame society, blame crazy people" shilling MHA is always doing. If a westerner made this I'd just assume they're red-pilled.

yeah but whoever came up with the SSJ sound effect is a genius
