Started reading Daemons of the Shadow Realm, FMA creator Arakawa's new series, and loving it a lot so far.

I never got super into Silver Spoon purely due to subject matter, but the actual writing was very good there too. Glad she's back to a major narrative series, though.

I just rememeber how much Samurai 8 crashed and burned for Kishimoto and it makes me paranoid for when these huge mangaka try and recapture the lightning.

Like can you imagine what kind of pressure Oda will be under if he tries to start something new after One Piece?

I liked Silver Spoon more than FMA to be honest. Father was a terrible villain and everything after Fort Briggs or w/e was a huge mess, just in a different way from 2003.

sure, but it had the episode where Bradley fights the tank, which is the best FMA episode period

No Bleach news, pretty safe to say the delaycast is real.

One Piece

Random flashback to a couple chapters ago at the beginning feels out of place and I honest to God am sticking to my guns that it's just a make good due to the backlash to justify it, and that the whole situation is still editorial meddling


Rest of the chapter was wikd, though.

agreed assuming that you're talking about Yamato only and not Marco. I liked the Marco stuff and I think it worked just fine as a flashback just to finally allow Luffy to say thank you

Marco part was fine and it feels like it was also something that Oda forgot to include before or that got cut out during some last minute changes and he threw it back in here.

i hope the anime shows the Yamato stuff in chronological order honestly.

Theory time: the new pacifistas are based on former captives\slaves. What if they made a Kaido one and fed it a Vegapunk created artificial fruit to give him Kaido's power. That would be their true ace in the hole. Also potential for Jimbei, Ivan, Croc, and Doffy pacifistas, along with the commanders Blackbeard recruited from Impel Down.

Xenoblade 2 chapter 4 beated.

Game is still good, but progress has been a bit slow mostly because I am also trying to finish grad school this semester, and video games tend to be the first of my hobbies to get sacrificed when I need time for other things.

Mor Ardain is a fun location. Liked it a lot more than any of the mechanical themed levels from the first game.

The bit with Chairman Bana was a bit weird. He was a pretty fun character, so it's a bit of a shame they had him decide to jeopardize his years of careful scheming for no reason by challenging the party to a robot duel when he could have just did nothing and the party would have continued on their merry way. Torna and Morag continue to be fun however, though I do hope the game doesn't hold back too much longer in telling me who some of these characters are and what their motivations are.

I guess it depends what your expectations are. The art is good and the characters are serviceable with good shone vibes. But I feel like it becomes pretty apparent how derivative it is the more it goes on.

Watched the first half of the new Bastard!! adaptation. It's great. Basically feels like wish fulfillment harem badassery, but in the way LN series wishes they were, rather than what they actually are. Dark Schneider (the MC) is awesome, the animation's quite good, the music is joyful, the metal music references are nice, and the show constantly moves. Looking forward to the second half airing later this week, and hoping it gets more!

I've hear mixed things. There's a lot of people who say it's terrible but I've seen a few say it's great. Sounds like it's completely down to whether you dig the aesthetic.

All caught up with Lycoris Recoil, 2 episodes left it seems. Pretty incredible show. Some of the best characters in an anime original in years. It's pretty easily my AotY so far if it doesn't fall on its face.

Not to say it's perfect, most notably I really feels like it should have been two cour. And not in the sense of it needs to go on for another 12 episodes, but in that where it's at now should have been episode 20ish, not 11. Needed some more room to breath.

The cast is truly great, though. I doubt it survives as my AotY with Chainsaw and Mob coming out, but at the very least it will likely keep the Anime Original crown.

The animation's good enough to make up for it I think. Not like it looks as good as Demon Slayer or whatever, but it's a good-lucking show.

Yeah I'm totally on board with it for what it is (not expecting a Monster-quality plot here or anything), and I did read over half of it back when it was first being published. I was just wondering if the second half was generally regarded as being better/worse/about the same as the first half.

Usually for anime/manga like this the most likely way for things to go downhill for me is that the later arcs start getting more and more bloated and the pacing goes to shit (though that's more of an issue in anime than manga since you can kinda skim manga battle scenes if they get too drawn out). I seem to recall that that was kinda happening with FT around that point, but I don't think it had reached DBZ or post-time skip OP anime levels.

Cyberpunk: Edgerunners just came out on Netflix. I wonder if it's worth watching even if I haven't played the Cyberpunk video game. I usually like futuristic settings like this, but given the reception the game received I stayed as far away from it as possible.

If anyone here does watch it, let me know what you thought! Whether you've played the game or not, it should help me decide if this anime is worth trying.

I've been hearing some really good word of mouth from people who don't care about Cyberpunk. One guy I know started watching when it came out at 3AM and stayed up to finish the whole thing (I don't know how long it is, maybe that's not as nuts as it sounds)

Glad to hear new show's good, my question is if it's a proper remake or does some prior series need to be watched beforehand? May add it to the list basd on your recommendation (and to see what this MC is really all about outside of MPFC, lol)

I watched the first three eps of Edgerunners. It doesn't really have anything to do with the game's plot, and it's pretty good stuff so far. Seems to be 10 episodes, so not super long.

It's a proper remake. Don't have to watch anything else. Just as a note though, he's a powerful dude, but at the current point, not anywhere near most powerful ever class.

I have now also watched the first 3 episodes of Edgreunners, and as someone who thought that game's story and characters were pretty terrible this anime absolutely rules, so I can now personally back up my early anecdotal comments.

2077 great game.

Actually liked it a bit more than the anime probably. I enjoyed Edgerunners the whole way through and it was really consistent, but it never hit emotionally for whatever reason, even though I feel like it should've. Rebecca #1.
