anime

it used to strongly skew towards backlog, but now idk

completely unrelated

there are 3 Vtuber/YouTuber shows this season

and all of them absolutely mog that official VTuber show from a couple seasons ago

interesting

I only remember the one from the trailers we watched

Yeah, vtuber wave is coming, its been enough time that the productions on the first wave of shows are finishing

Mayonaka Punch and the Strong Zero ad

don't know the third

the only vtuber show i need is hologra

I'm watching Punch rn

the only vtuber shit that is going on my list is when I ocassionally watch the pirate girl's music videos because they get recommended to me

and loli god requiem

I like the pirate music

Pirate music is good

God I love cali's metal gear song

it is so good

She is a bottom tier vtuber because of that one song

I am also not the biggest fan of the suicide squad ED by her

its not the worst ed this season

but it is not the best

I can't think of any OPs or EDs that stand out to me as good yet

I like the deer OP

I like the beginning of it

I like the Yoasobi monogatari ED

It becomes generic near the middle

I agree with that take gent

I still like it, but the beginning part is the strongest

uh, I like the nier OP but I like Lisa

OH

Polu

russian ED

that one gets the takagi bump

I guess Nier OP, 2.5 dimension OP, and Russian OP and ED are good

This season has no S tier songs

yeah

the pain of no monogatari OP

I know

Monogatari doing a unique OP for each arc, sung by the character of that arc, is one of my favourite things the show did

I am only misising one show still, maybe last crusade S2 has a banger OP/ED

You should check out this called In the Heart of Kunoichi Tsubaki, it features a different group of girls singing and ED for every episode when half the episode was about them. It all culminates into a grand ED where every group gets together to sing a grand song about the village.

Thats very cool, but different EDs is more common than different OPs. I will for sure check it out though!

even koyomimonogatari reused OPs and reanimated at least the nadeko one

I never noticed they reanimated the nadeko one

what did they change

removed her hat apparently

lmfao

Oh yeah, they totally did

My favourite part of this OP is they did the backwards version (visually) for her other arc and I like that song just as much

maybe one of these standalone stories is long enough to warrant two episodes and they make at least one OP

X

Fixed

Nobeta just keeps getting bigger

have they made her a VTuber yet?

that feels like a logical step

the studio said they completely finished production of that show all the way back in mid-july

which is an interesting note

Yeah they post official loli porn sometimes

for regi's image

I feel like I've seen multiple, notable artists get commissioned for official art too

its dark souls

what do you expect

for BA anime, i wrote down a... review? write-up? of the adaptation, which is my first time doing something like that, because i really do like BA. It's not really a review as much as it is me writing down the differences between the anime and game, with a couple critiques. I intended to post it here but idk if you guys (pika and polu) care, and i also thought i should wait for you to finish the show. its also way longer than i thought it would be when i started writing it.

dw, Regi and I; the only other two resident BA players here, will tell you your favorite girl is shit

I'm interested in reading it. You seem like you aren't 100% against the adaptation which is what I like when talking to people who have seen the source. I plan on watching episode 12 today.

my favorite girl is hina fyi

When I get a chance to catch up I'll read you review

My opinion of the show for the 60% I've seen is that its alright, but nothing really compels me to want to watch the next episode

which is how I fell behind so far

6/10 overall, my typical score for shows I enjoyed but with an * after the word enjoy

Hina ok

I like the rule breaker 86 or whatever their group is called leader

she's my favourite

Aru is a fun character

ok here's my review-ish thing for BA anime. spoiler tagging based on pika's current MAL progress lol --BA Anime Overall review and notes-- As someone who really loves the BA story, i decided to rate this show based on how it did as an adaptation. For this reason i gave it an 8/10 on MAL, but if i was a stranger to BA and rated the show on its own, it would have been a lower score. What I wrote here are some critiques and praises based on that premise. Important introductory prologue scenes skipped(rip wakamo's and rin's intro). It's weird that the abydos girls had to explain basic information about the city to sensei, instead of Rin from the GSC doing it when sensei first starts working under the GSC. Fight scenes not really animated well other than a couple exceptions. nobody ever actually hit the main girls with any shots. Kivotos students are very durable, they regularly get shot in the game and shrug it off. why did the show avoid having them get hit at all? only iori from the prefect team landed hits but only in melee and her strikes were somewhat blocked. Sensei being in the anime is good, but with the fights being the way they are, and with the lack of game mechanics, his participation is sidelined. Volume 1 chapters 1 and 2 are not the most interesting part of BA story by a long shot, the anime was never going to fix that, but there's a lot of good about it like expanded scenes and the original episode 8 scenes which were quite nice and enjoyable to see. my biggest issues are the battle animation, the prologue skip, and The OST. Which had a couple nice tracks but overall falls short of the game
