Is this really a thing that goes on?

That COVID is a convenient excuse for production delays, when in reality its mostly because of poor management and being short-staffed.

Which of course is not to say that a high spike in infections cant be a cause of delays if most of the staff is getting sick.

It seems to me like a number of anime productions are last minute affairs with no margin for error, so although blaming COVID for the delay is technically accurate, it doesn't capture the full story.

Watched Josee, the Tiger, and the Fish.

This was a movie that had been on my radar for a while, but as a result of the pandemic I either lost track of it or wasn't willing to go to a theater when/if it released, or something. In any case I decided to watch it now that it's available on Crunchyroll.

In typical fashion for a romance/drama, I really liked the 2 leads and their dynamic, but lots of the drama felt either rushed or just kind of dumb. Which I guess averages out to "this was decently good". Feels a bit like "A Silent Voice at home" in a lot of ways, but even an inferior version of that movie is still reasonably good.

No one is talking about airing anime in here this season. I guess I can't blame anyone, though. This season sucks. Something is terribly wrong when Phantom of the Idol is my person fifth-best of the season. I just finished it, it only had ten episodes. It's lucky I inherently liked the idea of a lazy idol working with an idol ghost, because that premise had to carry it. The animation wasn't anything special, and the CGI during the songs was downright bad. The writing also left a lot to be desired. The best part was the frequent cutaways to the fans. They were all such over-the-top fangirls who went nuts over a lazy idol, that was fun. I liked Asahi too but the story didn't have the talent or the courage to truly explore the emotions of a dead idol who isn't ready to move on yet. Ah well.

I'm way behind because of gaming. Xenobkade 3 took up 140 hours on it's own.

That said, it's a sequel heavy season, and sequels almost always get talked about less. We've got Devil is a Part Timer Season 2, but it's a 10 year old show so the number of people who have actually seen season 1 is gonna keep going down.

Made in Abyss 2 is obviously a huge deal, but there's not much to....talk about with it? It's just quietly being one of the best anime of the year in the background.

People have given up on Overlord.

Biscuit Hammer was SUPPOSED to be the shining jewel of the season, but it got full Berserk 2016'd so now it's a laughing stock.

Lycoris Recoil and Call of the Night have clearly firmly cemented themselves as the biggest new shows of the season in regards to popularity, so if you're not watching those there's not a lot of other non sequels you'll find much discussion for.

Spy x Family 2, I mean I've dropped this but obviously it's huge.

Hero Aca, even if the series is gonna go to shit AFTER this season, this one should be really good. I've skipped the last two seasons but will probably check out this.

And then we've got the fucking GOLD TIER

Mob Psycho III
Chainsaw Man
Pop Team Epic 2

I'm sad that Prima Doll appears to have absolutely bombed. It didn't end up being as good as I thought it would, but it's still my second favorite of the season with a gigantic gap between it and the third. I lurk the anime subreddit sometimes and they have this weekly ranking of what's getting the most upvotes. Prima Doll isn't even on it! The one where the guy wants to bang his stepsister is number 11 but Prima Doll couldn't even reach the top 30 of the season, wtf

Romcom/Harems tend to be more popular than CGDCT. I know there's more to Prima Doll than that, but it doesn't use the war/action to hook people the way Lycoris Recoil used it's action. Instead you have a show focused on a bubbly, oblivious robot girl surrounded by other cute robot girls who are damaged and haunted by their pasts. Personally, the drama wasn't my thing, so I dropped it after 2 episodes.

I do agree that this season isn't as good as last. I've dropped more shows than I've stuck with, including Phantom Idol, which I barely made it through the girl's introduction. The dude was just so unlikable.

Not sure how to feel about Ancient Magus Bride S2. That was one of those shows that I liked a lot at the beginning and then substantially less as it went on. The show's style was very good throughout so I'll probably still enjoy it somewhat but idk.

I remember enjoying the first three Magus Bride episodes released that I think were set wherever the manga was at the time, but then the actual series went back to the beginning and turned Chise into one of the most boring characters ever and I hated it. Maybe this new season will finally get back to the point where Chise has a personality.

Are you unaware of the experiments where they confirmed the head survived for 30-45 seconds after being cut off?

If that's true for your head getting cut off it's probably true for any form of death that doesn't have your brain turn to mush instantly.

When they put out that shitty fake Mermaids mockumentary that a bunch of people thought was real for some reason (maybe because your channel was major source of entertaining education??) and it made gangbusters, they realized that fact was never going to be as profitable as fiction and went all in on wow factor and ridiculous bullshit moving forward.

Everyone is shitting on Discovery now for the HBO stuff but they've been garbage for a looooong time.

If you're talking about the main girl bearing the child of the man that raised her, I haven't heard/seen many people bring that up when discussing the series. At least, not in the same way Usagi Drop gets discussed. People just praise it and recommend it, saying it is really good.

It's partly that it's a bit more vague in the anime version. The manga is much more explicit about it.

The series is excellent, don't get me wrong, but that issue really damages the entire thing in my mind. Just shouldn't have been in there at all. It's single handily responsible for why I never actually bring it up when asked about great anime by friends of mine.

The first cour finale was also atrocious but they actually go back and make it great. There's no such thing to be done for the actual last episode.
