I remember I pirated it back in the day, so it wasnt on Prime since I had that. I just assumed it was a Funi title, they've been moving a few shows every Tuesday for awhile now.

Major MHA spoilers below.

People really out here saying getting annoyed at Bakugo not being dead is dumb because we should know that MHA is a merch machine first and it's totally acceptable that it wouldn't stick.

I don't think knowing why something lame happens in the story means it's not OK to be annoyed that it sucks.

I'm fine with him getting revived if it happens. As I mentioned earlier, it would be fairly jarring for Deku to save Shigaraki after he discovers Bakugo's dead. Even more so if they are just chilling as friends in the epilogue. Of course there's the chance that doesn't happen or it purely saves his soul type of thing before he ultimately dies anyway. But it's been made clear that saving Tomura is a pretty big plot point and important to the previous holders so it would be a surprise if Deku does a U-turn on trying to save him especially given his character

Yes, this is why it's even more offensive. I've basically lost faith, not that MHA has been firing on anything resembling all cylinders since the Villain arc.

Ah, Cyberpunk, well there's extraneous marketing there, but yeah it's getting pushed hard.

I won't be watching that because I played 40 hours of Cyberpunk but couldn't take it anymore. One more second of Keanu as that Johnny Tsunami guy and I would have lost it.

The good news about Stone Ocean is we already know the 3rd set of blu rays is set to release may 31st 2023

Meaning the final set of episodes will probably air during the Winter season

Much shorter wait than between parts 1 and 2

Crunchyroll has been adding movies, and I read that they'll keep adding more every Thursday for the next month or so (not that I can find any confirmation for that on their website, finding announcements there sucks). Anyway, these are there so far.

Wolf Children
The Boy and the Beast
Sing a bit of Harmony
Akira
Your Name

I'm interested in Your Name and I'm not sure I want to watch Akira, but I've never heard of the other three. Can anyone vouch for them, or warn me away? I've seen very few anime movies, but maybe I should change that.

Wolf Children and Boy and the Beast are both by Mamoru Hosoda who is a pretty well regarded anime movie director. Wolf Children is probably his most praised work and I thought it was quite good. I didn't like Boy and the Beast a whole lot but I think it was received somewhat well also.

Oh is the manga adaptation good? I really liked the first season of the anime, but most of the time in my experience of light novel - > Anime, the manga version is usually bad, so I didn't even look into it.

On a similar note, the complete Steins;Gate manga was on a big Amazon sale recently for super cheap, so I picked it up. It's BAD. Like, they should have paid ME to take it from their warehouse.

You mean for Faraway Paladin? A bit inconsistent - I haven't seen the light novel/anime, but I thought the first manga arc was fantastic, maybe a masterpiece. Mater materializing to protect Mary actually made me cry a little. After that when more general adventuring begins, it's fine I guess but was pretty aimless with fairly forgettable encounters and new characters that weren't that interesting or memorable. This round today of catching up on the 10-15 chapters I've been behind on were really great though.

Even when it's not too interesting, it's really well made at least, which I appreciate in the sea of generic isekai's i've been reading.

Looking at this anime episode list and - huh - it goes all the way to the chimera? That's pretty far - up to chapter 27 of the manga out of 47. That's actually the end of the part I thought was boring!

Hey, what's with the perception lately that Part 4 is the best JoJo arc? Did they do it exceptionally well in the anime?

When I read the manga like 13 years ago, Stardust Crusaders was unquestionably the most loved arc with Battle Tendency being a somewhat distant second. Diamond is Unbreakable was considered to be a gigantic step down overall since the cast kinda sucks, especially the JoJo, with the saving grace being two GOD TIER characters in Rohan Kishibe and Yoshikage Kira. Was there just general swing over the years or did the anime cause this?

Stardust Crusaders always had some antipathy towards it, and the anime only made that worse. Steel Ball Run's been the favorite for a long time, probably since 13 years ago at least.

Part 4 was hated in the manga for a long time due to its godawful translation. I think that got fixed at some point, and the anime didn't have that problem either. Those two factors help it a lot.

Part 3 was always super popular in the west, but that was mainly the result of so many people living JoJo vicariously through memes, or the fighting game. Don't forget that there was a time long again where JoJo was fairly well known EXCLUSIVELY because of that Flash page.

https://youtu.be/QCw7ysE--5Q

Also it was the only part with a decent translation for quite a while so it's all they really read even if they were in fact seeking it out.

Part 4 has been pretty commonly considered the best part since the translation was fixed (I suffered through the original with pride!), though probably not as commonly as Part 7 nowadays.

Also, I guess I should say "good on them"/yay for progressiveness that a character who is totally a girl and designed as such is classified as male and I guess they are sticking with it...Ranpo Kitan also pulled this shit. I'm fully expect the cliche shower scene now.

Japan, why do you always do this shit? Stop confusing me....
