I see disappointment of last season was Thanos snapped.

It was disappointing compared to past Studio 3Hz shows, but I wouldn't call it a bad show. I'd still give it like a 6.5 or 7 out of 10.

From the middle of episode 6 to the end of episode 8, Zombie Land Saga just put me through one of the wildest emotional rollercoasters that I've ever been through while watching an anime. I went from happy, to scared, to hyped, to headbanging so hard my neck hurt, to angry, to shocked, to crying actual tears (of joy), and finally being happy again, all in a span of 2 and a half episodes. Thank god I somehow managed to not have any of this spoiled for me in the 15 months I spent waiting for the full English dub instead of just watching it subbed as it aired, because these episodes blew me away.

Also, if anyone's wondering: my current standings after episode 8 have Ai as best girl, with Saki a close second and Sakura in third.

I'm really enjoying them. Obviously I can't compare them to the Japanese versions, but I think all of the English dub VA's have great singing voices, especially Sakura. I've actually heard Sakura's VA, Brina Palencia, sing in English in a different anime even before watching ZLS:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EcF3faTDFhU

Plus, Junko is voiced by Amanda Lee (AKA AmaLee), that one girl who covers anime songs in English and posts them on Youtube. I've heard some of her covers before, and she has loads of talent. She's been really good as Junko so far, IMO the second-best singing voice being Sakura's.

What was ep 6 through 8? was it the lily stuff?

*obviously Zombie Land Saga spoilers under the tags below*

Episodes 6 and 7 were about the performance at Saga Rock, including Ai and Junko fighting and making up. The revelation that Ai's cause of death was getting struck by lightning in the middle of an outdoor performance on a rainy stage was METAL AS FUCK! Episode 8 was Lily's big episode, including the revelation that Lily was biologically a boy when she was alive but identifies as a girl. I personally think that the whole plot point about her being transgender was actually handled really well. It wasn't too insensitive about the subject but also wasn't too SJW-ish in trying to push a viewpoint too hard.

The director also directed Your Name, so it's running off the hype.
Didn't impress me when I saw the trailer at the Konosuba screening, and I wasn't a fan of Your Name so I won't be seeing it in theaters myself.
Thanks.

And yeah, seems a lot of people in the transgender community thought Zombieland saga handled it very well.

There's no way in hell that they would waste an announcement at a Lyrical Live (which is where almost all of the previous Nanoha anime projects have been announced) on a fucking pachinko machine. That would piss off the fans and kill the franchise.

Ooof, the CG in the Ni No Kuni film is pretty bad.

I know that Ghibli did the original game's anime scenes and we shouldn't expect this to rival that considering it wasn't Ghibli, but... disappointing.

The thing that chuffs me most about the Ni No Kuni movie is it could have been WAY better as a series.

Things went way too damn fast and it suffers a lot from it.

I heard there's a movie called Weathering with you. Anyone heard of it?

Ive watched it. Looked super beautiful in the theater, especially with all the weather effects and scenery shots. Story leans on the heavy drama side with a lot of intense moments about halfway in, and the insert songs lyrics go super well with their respective scenes.

After starting at the end of November, I finished Kaleido Star now. A beautiful end to a great series. I didn't expect much when I started, but it was a fun show. A rollarcoaster of feelings, sometimes things were so damn rough for Sora it was too damn depressing to watch. Rosetta really shined the most for me though.

Mei definitely got a lot better as well.

Now that I've finished Kanon and Kaleido Star, I need to figure out what my next short and long series will be.

Where did you leave off in Symphogear the last time you were watching it? Because you should totally finish it if you haven't yet.

I've seen season 3. I'm thinking I might get back into Nanoha though.

I haven't watched it, but I saw it mentioned in a Youtube video I watched recently.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZdIRdydFBw4

I'm actually planning on subscribing to Netflix for two months to watch the other two shows in this video, as well as Little Witch Academia. But if I have some extra time after I finish those shows before the subscription runs out, I might check out Scissor Seven too.

Fortunately it's short enough to binge. I wanna say episodes average at 12 minutes, but yeah I'd definitely get through Little Witch Academia first and foremost.

Scissors Seven is a little off putting in the aspect of it's original audio being Mandarin, but it quickly grew on me.

Does it have an English dub option? The great majority of anime I've seen on Netflix have a dub, but I still feel like it's worth asking.

Actually it does, and it's pretty good. My only gripe is the English VA for Seven sounds too cool/competent lol. Which definitely works in his favor during the more serious parts

I'm convinced at this point that Gigguk is purposely and actively fucking with the Symphogear fans. First the half-assed "mention" in the summer 2019 video that seemed to be mocking the fanbase for wanting him to watch the show, and now this video saying that 2019 "didn't have any soundtracks as a whole that really stood out" yet still having a music section that turns into him gushing about Carole & Tuesday and not one single mention of Symphogear.

That's how normal people deal with stuff like this, now imagine being gigguk and having hundreds of thousands of irrational rabid morons commenting, emailing, etc etc about "HEY WATCH THIS ITS AWESOME I LOVE IT", shit probably gets old in the first 5 minutes.
