It's kinda interesting so far. Still not sure if I'll finish it or not but we'll see.

Manga is way better and recommend reading it instead of watching it

I'll take your word for it, but unfortunately I never can get into manga

. I don't mind reading translated light novels, but just not graphic ones for whatever reason.

Yeah, I get what you mean. Just some anime misses some stuff, which isn't do w their director sucks, just not enough time to explain it. This is the same. When you get a chance and if you feel like it, recommend it.

That's any on-screen adaptation I think.

Just started watching "Laid-Back Camp," and the outro song has a nice, peaceful tone to it.

Finished this one myself last night (Irokudu...). It was cute.

Damnit. Ended up binging Tokyo Revengers the past few days and finished it tonight and apparently episode 24 only just aired this past weekend lol. Shows how out of touch I am with anime hype.

Anyway I enjoyed it and can't believe it's probably gonna be a year or more till a new season. Welp.

Started watching Star Wars Visions today. I guess Disney decided to release all ten or however many episodes at once.

They're basically 15 minute or so anime short stories in the SW universe, each produced by a different anime studio.

I'm a pretty bit SW fan and the first two were so good. That's as much as I've watched so far.

Just tried Komi Can't Communicate. Pretty funny first episode. I think I've read that this show is a meme. So I guess we'll see.

I've been thinking about Saint Seiya for the past couple of days, a childhood favorite. Also Gundam Wing, the one with Heero. I'm about to binge watch for the next days since the wife is out at a conference. I just suddenly feel like re-watching all the anime that I grew up with; Yu Yu Hakusho, Captain Tsubasa, Gundam Wing, Saint Seiya, Inuyasha, Runouni Kenshin, even Sakura Card Captor. There was another one that was a bunch of kids capturing demons from their mother's diary. Maybe I can find them with Spanish dub, the English dubs of old anime are atrocious. I would be okay with Subs too.

Man it's almost funny how anime since the 90s hasn't really changed much in terms of dialogue.

Hero:*Gets the living sht beaten out of*
Villian: Hahaha, prepare to die!
Hero: *Has flashback about a time where he was in trouble and managed come back*
Villian: *waits for the final blow*
Hero: Not yet, I will now use my ultimate move!
Villian: NANI??!!

Hero: This is my Meteor Punch Super Technique!
Villian: METEOR PUNCH???!! SUPER TECHNIQUE???!!!!
Hero: Yes the technique that I just pulled out of my @ss because the show is named after me anyways so I can't die.
Villian: NANI??!! NOoooOOOooooo.

spcmafia · 11-19-2021, 06:30 AM

Side note, I forgot how much Saint Sieya and the other Knights almost sucked. That's because they spend about 2-3 episodes being a punching bag for the villians, just to pull a hail mary and suddenly remember to summon their Cosmo energy. Still a good anime nonetheless. I guess it still gives me that "Common Seiya! Fight for Athena and get up!" feeling for the next episode. But it can get quite repetitive about how every fight goes.
