The first half of this series has just released on Netflix, an anime about a pair of rising musicians by Shinichiro Watanabe (Cowboy Bebop, Samurai Champloo, Space Dandy). I just finished what's been released, and it met and exceeded by expectations. Thankfully, even though Netflix cut it in two, it ends on a very reasonable point in the story, and could easily be seen as the end of a first season.

As always, Netflix has dumped a highly anticipated anime series half a year late with zero fanfare, and absolutely zero chance of gaining traction or popularity, regardless of it's quality or how much peope were looking forward to watching it before they licensed it and held it in Netflix jail. Netflix didn't even bother tweeting about the release, not even the account specifically designed for thisntype of content. Most people who were greatly anticipating it just ended up pirating it anyways months ago, so they weren't here to spread the word either.

I'll be happy if even one person checks it our or watches it because I made this topic.

The dub is very good. Definitely not an AICO or Netflix Eva situation. Whichever you prefer.

I enjoyed Kids on the Slope enough that this is a very strong selling point.

Not sure if I want to sign up for Netflix just for it, but if I do end up resubbing, it'll probably be one of the first things I watch.

Violet Evergarden and Tiger and Bunny are ones to watch too. I will keep this show in mind. Watanabe being involved has me intrigued.

As for Netflix anime NO ONE should EVER watch...Anohana. Didn't know anything about it, but it turned into a dumpster fire of poo.

From what I understand, these are still english but with different vocalists?? Curious decision, but I can't deny the dub songs are incredible.

The songs were originally in English from the start. The speaking voices for the characters are in Japanese, but they got all English-speaking people to do the songs.

It's the one thing that was left unchanged from sub to dub.

On the subject of Netflix anime, there's one that's gonna be coming out at some point (who knows when thanks to Netflix, it might not be until the end of December - Early January) called Beastars that I strongly urge everyone to check out. Easiest way to give a one sentence summary is that it's a darker more fucked up Zootopia and is a fantastic series that is gonna need all the push it can get when Netflix doesn't do anything to advertise it

Is 7 Seeds any good? I was only able to get through a couple episodes thus far, but it has a unique spin on the "deserted island survival" trope, due to the grouped characters.

the show is done a real disservice by making the manager an incompetent buffoon though, those dumb antics make the show nigh unwatchable to me

3 episodes in. The vocal performances are stellar and the animation is so fluid it's beautiful. Please tell me Ertigun or whatever gets punched in his face somewhere down the line. What a jackass. I don't really know what to make of the other characters so far. Angela seems stuck up and yet I kind of feel sorry for her. I like Carole's style but neither her nor Tuesday have shown much personality so far. I guess I find Tuesday's timidity a little cute but I'm not super attached to anyone so far. Their voices though... I'd marry Tuesday's voice, and then I'd cheat on it with Carole's.

And yes I know every singer's voice is provided by an actual indie singer already. I'll probably check out some of their IRL work after I finish the series.

So I did some digging on the Galactic Mermaid singer out of curiosity.

Its sung by a Japanese girl

https://www.instagram.com/yuricornnn/?hl=en
https://www.youtube.com/user/neonlight9646n

That does her own covers and acapella, which explains how she got picked to sing it.

Holy shit, oh fucker

Beastars is indeed an incredible series. It's also being produced by the same team as Land of the Lustrous, one of my favorite anime series of the last decade and a wonderful adaptation. I have faith they will do it justice.

There is, and I realize there's another playlist put together by Spotify themselves.

It does have songs outside of Carole & Tuesday though.

You can definitely tell her songs are inspired by pop singers, but they are original songs.

This is the girl who sings them.

Oh, this! I saw the trailer for that a while back and it piqued my interest, but I wasn't super hyped to check it out. That dark Zootopia description makes it seem worth raising in my queue though.

@Strife2

Have you seen BTOOOM!! ? If you like unique spins on desert island survival I highly recommend. It's a very short watch too because of its disappointingly abrupt ending. Easiest way to describe it is Battle Royale meets Sword Art Online with way better characters.

They aren't all indie singers tbh.

They have Thundercat and Denzel Curry, as vocalists.

Forgive me, but... who?

I'm not well-versed in the music scene at all these days or ever if I were to be honest with myself. I just assumed they were all indie singers because a YouTube video stated the seiyuus of Carole and Tuesday (the characters, not the anime) were relatively unknown and their IGs had very few followers before Carole and Tuesday (the anime, not the characters) dropped. I guess I shouldn't assume things, but it's an honest mistake whoops.

Nope, I found that song Moving Mountains and that's definitely not it. it's specifically the line "No matter what, I will fight to the end, I can move mountains". I've heard this recently somewhere.

This isn't actually a new anime even though it just came out on Netflix or something right? It came out a while ago with the same songs in the original Japanese version.... so maybe I heard a cover or in a youtube video or somebody played it on a Twitch stream or something.

Cultural osmosis must have been in effect here

alright since there's already a topic specific for it

Finished up the episodes on Netflix, I might go scrounge up the rest of them in other places. Music stayed fantastic throughout, some points of the plot/characters I feel are a LITTLE questionable at times but nothing outlandish and doesn't ruin the quality of the show in general. Also I feel like I can't judge some of these too harshly anyway because the show technically isn't done, Netflix is just stupid. But yea and that OP is fantastic, one of my favorites of the year easily.

Just finished episode 7, oh my gosh those Mars' Brightest auditions. That one guy has to be a reference to that weird Russian singer right?

I appreciate them making Angela into a somewhat sympathetic character because she was starting to grate. Both Carole and Tuesday have grown on me now. The former is so mellow and down-to-earth and the latter is so shy and adorable. Pyotr is nothing like I imagined just based on his song. He's... kind of obnoxious!

Starting episode 8 now. Cybelle is a real weirdo.
