Board 8 > Anime & Manga Discussion Topic 281: Never Forgive Cloverworks

(+) Yeah! (+)

Almost done with my big manga catchup.

Talentless Nana really feels like it's rushing an end because it knows it may be canceled, and it's depressing.

All that's left is Komi which is...all of it, I've only read 1 volume of Komi so far.

After that I'll finally go read the Umineko manga.

Komi is just completely held up by the side characters huh?

The leads aren't really appealing at all.

Najimi the best.

Read Sakamoto days

Oh I actually did really want to read this, Gigguk mentioned it a while back.

I'm enjoying it enough to keep going otherwise, but I hope Komi cute down on the narrator boxes explaining what Komi is doing/thinking things because they are absolutely killing this manga.

WIT gay vampire show looks gooood

final episode of Attack on Titan Final Season Part 2 not airing until next week because of the AoT event at AnimeJapan in a few hours

I assume they announce a movie to actually end the series

they're still gonna have like 9 chapters to get through to reach the end

Attack on Titan: The Final Movie... Part 1

Attack on Titan has not had the best luck with theatrical releases.

oh yo this looks sick

New PV for the show Twitter has decided to call "Black Panther for dudes who wanna get pegged by their GFs"

Alright so this is so lowkey such a nit picky complaint, but like....I can't get over it, because it just keeps piling on and this is the culmination of it.

Komi 44, super short nothing chapter but just a cute thing.

If you make literally no changes besides removing the square text boxes it would be at least twice as good.

These things are KILLING me.

I watched half of the third season of Non Non Biyori today, thinking it was leaving at the end of the month. Looking at it now though, I guess only the first two seasons are going? Oh well.

I think NNB is paced too slow to really be one of my favorites, lots of long shots of the countryside or characters walking somewhere. Still, I'm enjoying it well enough.

unfortunately they didn't really announce anything regarding the future of the anime

Reincarnated as a Sword coming in Fall. Actually looks fairly decent too. There are so many fucking isekai shows its sad that just doing the MC is an object is enough to make it stand out. I know there are likely others for that LN wise, but none come to mind anime wise yet at least. I feel like its only a matter of time before we see some anime titled Reincarnated As A Goddesss Bra/Panties.

Reincarnated As A Goddesss Bra/Panties.

Pretty sure this already exists. That, or the reincarnation wasn't for a goddess but an adventurer. Still, reincarnating as underwear has happened. So has being a vending machine, a cat, a dog and so on. Think there was even one where the reincarnation was an "adult recreational device." You'd be hard-pressed to find something that a person HASN'T reincarnated as.

I googled for the reincarnated as legendary panties light novel just to see how it even sets it up, and the translation was so bad it was unreadable, let alone the content lmao .

The secret to Broly's power..........is that he's actually a rodent?

This time around I think Ill actually watch previews instead of just reading the chart descriptions

Im gonna be far busier than I thought so Im just going to start my Spring 2022 pre-season write-ups a little early and if somehow a new show or two is added after Ill just do another post for it/them.

Shield Hero S2 - Ok I cant watch the trailer for this since Ill know what happened in S1 most likely and I might get back to it. First show on the list is an isekai though and theres definitely several more on the list.

Kaguya S3 - Uh well what a start to this list after I said Id watch previews. No need to watch one for a show I dropped and will never go back to

SPYxFAMILY - This one has a lot of hype from manga readers and Wit is part of the production. It looks pretty good! Definitely one Ill check out.

Shikimoris Not Just A Cutie - It feels like they put a ton of work into the heroines face based on the previews. Im not sure if the premise can keep things interesting for a whole season and the trailer didnt help much with that feeling. Probably a pass for me.

Komi S2 - I havent seen the first so heres another I wont watch the preview of. Im not even sure Im interested in it.

Date A Live S4 - Im honestly amazed this series keeps getting seasons when Ive never seen anyone talk about it. Maybe a little back when S1 aired, but like nobody ever mentions this series. Pass because I only ever saw an episode or two and remembered not caring for it I think.

A Couple of Cuckoos - This is just a generic romcom harem with an oops you were swapped at birth thrown into the description. The main heroine is easily the worst looking girl on the cover too. I like how it says the MC likes a different girl, but lets be real here theres like a 0.4% chance he doesnt end up with the main heroine he moves in with. Basically zero chance I end up watching this.

Aharen-san Is Indecipherable - It would be nice if the main heroine didnt look 7 years old. She hardly speaks in the trailers too. Its a comedy so I might at least check out an episode, but I dont expect much of this one.

Science Etc Love etc S2 - Sequel to a show I paid no attention to at all.

Summer Time Render - This show looks nice, but I dont know how to feel about it. I might consider it if its getting praise, but well see.

Im Quitting Heroing - I remember mentioning once it would be nice to see a series where the hero joins the villains and I guess this is it. It doesnt particularly look amazing, but Ill likely check it out for the novelty at least.

To be continued

Shield Hero is great. I need to get to that and Quintuplets season 2s after rewatching SIGN and Roots.

Catching up on backlog because I want to get to a clean slate for the new season.

I already basically knew this from the first half, but Odd Taxi really is a one in a million show.

Random trope complaint.

I am convinced that most contrived consistent plot convenience in all of anime is that Japanese people end up on death's door whenever they get wet.

If you're talking about the ending, that was worse than getting a bit wet...

Oh, no, I finished Odd Taxi before that lol.

Yes that is obviously a very different scenario.

And holy do I hope that movie ties up that last plot thread. I know it's new and old footage, so....

You mean you sont get the flu every time you get rained on?

Hey now. Persona 5 made it so the flu can instakill the Reaper. It's no joke.

Lol...but yes. I've seen that trope too.

That trope is so old. It was always so dumb when a character would get sick because somebody threw water at them or they were in the rain for 10 seconds lol

New, much more comprehensive Summer Time Rendering PV. This is probably at the top of my list for non sequels this season.

There are parts of it that seem interesting at least. Not entirely positive what its about still, but feel like Ive got some guesses and those make me think it might not be for me. Well see

I know it's based on a manga, but everything about it screams VN some reason.

It was giving me S;G vibes for some reason minus all the SCIENCE. I dunno why because it doesnt seem very similar in any way

Was getting Robitics;Notes vibes myself! More in line with the setting.

On to Zombieland Saga R now

Man, FFXIV sure had me put a LOT of shows on hold I would have never have stopped following originally.

This show is art.

Isekai honestly needs to be a tagged genre on anichart already so I can immediately tell without having to read words like reincarnated, transported, whisked away, etc to see its isekai series if none of those words are in the title >_>

Crypton is very protective of Miku as an IP. Good to know they are at least willing to put her in shows from time to time.

There is kind of a Miku anime...

It's all subbed too, you just need to turn on CC. Though without playing Colorful Stage, you're not gonna really know who the other non-Vocaloid characters are, or why there are different variants of Miku.

I do play Colorful Stage and I still don't know why there are different variants of Miku.

Petit Sekai is fun, though!
