Have you experienced yet the joy of the koi koi minigame yet? I've beaten at least half of the opponents so far but its... rough.
Yeah lol, it reminds me a lot of the minigames in Yakuza. I think I've got a better grasp on it than say Shogi or Mahjong but I'm sure once more opponents get unlocked it'll be brutal.

Midway Chapter 5 rankings

Sakura - taken a big dive, she's too damn wishy washy. Oh boo hoo, so you think Yaksha is Sakura. Like she can handle imitation when everything's peachy, but the second stuff hits the fan she acts like it'd put her out to protect the people and peace? She should grow up and stop chasing after someone she isn't. 5th place.

Hatsuho - Just cuz you're "family" doesn't excuse acting as she did. She's out.

Claris - The tables have turned! Now I regret being too harsh on her before. I like that she actually wanted to listen to Kamiyama's troubles. And from a purely functional standpoint, her ranged attacks matches well with his close up ones. Perhaps 2nd place, but she might yet gain 1st...

Azami - Although she isn't a romantic contender, I rather liked her character arc and the growth of a more sibling-like friendship between her and the Captain. And like Claris, she was the only other Division member to care about his feelings, instead of just her own. Tied for 2nd.

Anastasia - Again, getting closer but still rather distant compared to the others. I enjoyed her control room event, especially since it was plainly all an act. Or was it...? Raised to 1st place with Hatsuho's fall from grace.

Although who knows at this point, I might end up picking Claris too.

I was never a big fan of Sakura, either in the game or in the anime tbh
I'm glad lol. I don't like how with the Obu and now apparently the lead role she was basically rewarded for abandoning the team.

So in a parallel universe, Diary Of Our Days At The Breakwater would have instead been called Diary Of Our Days In The Handicrafts Club and would have been a comedy about about a girl unknowingly joining a handicrafts club of only guys. Full disclosure: I probably would have watched that too.

But in reality, we got cute girls doing cute fishing, and that's even better. It was a pretty fun show.

The flashy never stops, I watched it entirely cause I wanted some wild martial arts fights. But as it goes along the power scaling and weirdness keeps going up and up and up. To the point of fighting with monstrously overpowered Stands and evil cults and the world being in danger.

Fun show though.

Finished Sakura Wars, picked Anastasia. Yoruichi...Harribel...Finally my dream of vicariously living through a harem protagonist to kinda sorta romance a dark skinned Kubo girl has come true!!!

Joking (<_< >_> <_<) aside, I thought it was OK. The strong points IMO were the soundtrack, the world and mech/character design.

Gameplay/ending spoilers here!
As a game with choice, I kinda got the sense that none of the answers really mattered; as a game of combat, the repetition made Dynasty Warriors look like Ninja Gaiden; as a game of romance, basically every scene can be seen with no conflict, and except for the end-and perhaps even then-there isn't really a concrete declaration of love.

So ultimately gameplay wise, I feel like the devs didn't really know what direction to go in, and played it too safe as a result. Or maybe they had loftier goals, and had to lower the bar to get it finished? I don't know.

It wasn't life-changing or mind-blowing for me but I enjoyed it for the most part, regardless. In the end, I guess I'd rather be left with a feeling "not enough" than "never again."

Final tally:
Anastasia>Claris=Azami>>>>>>>>Sakura/Hatsuho

smile = protected
ending = hype as fuck

They nailed it, and it was glorious. Deca-Dence is my AOTS, is currently well in the lead for my AOTY, and might end up being just the eighth anime that I've ever given a perfect 10/10 score. At the very least it gets a 9, but I'm going to take more time to think about it and it might honestly deserve a 10.

Lol that's where I watched Nadesico and DP last year. Funimation used to have a ton of stuff up but most has come down since they've gone for their own service.

IIRC they've still got Vandread and Witchblade up, at least.

Yeah, reading the manga is very tempting but twists and big moments never have as big of an impact on me in a manga as they do in an anime. If I read the manga first, then I would be missing out on the impact when I see it in the anime. We have a long way to go for season 2, but what else can I do but wait.

If you can find it, try to watch the second CCS movie before Clear Card. The first movie isn't a big deal.

The concept of death does exist in the Vanguard universe lul, for example Misaki's parents, which is established early on. None of that shadow realm crap though the V-series that you'll not watch due to watching the reboot has once defied an established death through a shadow realm-esque bs

When you watch the third season, keep in mind it follows the manga storyline/art style and I think most of Traumend and Ouverture technically didn't happen. I didn't read any of the manga and followed it fine though. I think the anime gives you enough background to do so as the first season mostly follows the manga IIRC.
