that didn't jsut become magic high school anime #5000
I watched that recently
Why the fuck did you watch that
given you barely watch anime
Comparing shangrila to trigun is like night and day difference in anime
I watched it like 10 years ago maybe?
Oh, I though this was stuff you watched recently
lmao
I think same time watched that serph no serph of end or something
Still a weird choice to watch the artsy shaft show with the naked vampire loli
God I hated that Sereph show
I thought sereph was okay, but S2 was not very good
Yeah I liked the start of it but the ending of season 1 into season 2 killed it for me
One of many gay vampire shows I have watched which has me labelled
that and vanitas will never let me escape
It was gay?
Its about two dudes
I watched shiki, strike the blood, and one other where at the end the one girl vampire is ran over by a tractor
Yeah but the two dudes weren’t gay for each other I thought
Neither are they for vanitas, but the way the show is framed, it feels like its a show about gay vampires
even if on paper its not
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 I like SAO more than Shangra-la by a fair bit but Shangra-la is one of the most pure "fun" shows there's been in a while
I don’t even know if I watched a single episode of SAO
Claymore another top tier one for me
Thats the one with the woman I see clips on twitter sometimes
The show ends but the manga continues and it’s one of the only times I’ve went to read a manga.
Reminds me of blue gender too
I've figured it out
you are just really fucking old
Then there is mushi-mushi
Bruh I’m near 25
How the fuck do you find shows to watch lmao
My aunt and uncle all liked anime they had them on discs
Ah, you inherited boomer anime, that makes more sense
I watch newer anime pirated
Boomer anime way better than most of the stuff I see come out nowadays
I disagree, I cannot stand a lot of the standards of pre 2000s anime any time I have tried to watch any
Lodoss war was okay, but with problems, that is the only one I've ever gotten through
Most of the stereotypes are the same, it’s just art style and storytelling
I think the last few years of anime have been particularly strong
Replying to (Not Spooky) Spark Dragon #sparkdragoon Most of the stereotypes are the same, it’s just art style and storytelling
Thats part of the issue, I hate the older art style a lot
Older anime I think did a better job of storytelling, new anime is art style and 3D little storytelling.
Pika, tbf, you were late to get into anime
I disagree with that take that there is little storytelling, I think you just need to not watch the bad shows in a given season
also true, I did not start watching anime until 18
all the show's he's listing are default recs a decade ago
What is the story behind shangrila frontier besides just playing wow?
Omg I got a unique quest line how interesting
Shangri-la is not a strong story show, that is true
it is a characters show
if you don't like the characters, thats fair
I tend to value characters a lot for my enjoyment of things
from what i remember and how current season is going, i think this a kinda loose list of the shows i liked most this year. I watched a lot more that were not worth mentioning though.
1. Frieren
2. Mushoku tensei 2 part 2, Apothecary diaries
3. Girls band cry, MakeIne
4. Slime s3, Shangri La, Alya, Spice and Wolf, GGO,
5. Gushing over magic girls, Dungeon people, BA, Demon slayer, dungeon meshi, Voice actor radio, MagiLumiere.
I judge characters and character design in anime harshly
Good list dialga
I care that the characters fit into the story of the world and not that the characters make the story up as they go
I completely forgot about Gun Gale, despite currently watching it
I think you just like a more specific type of anime then I do, whereas I just tend to like more things Spark Dragon, that is what I am getting for this
You want those grand narrative story shows, which I also agree are great
Oh I’ve been watching wind breakers with a friend. It’s kinda low to mid tier
I know nothing about that, except based on what I heard it seemed like something I would not like
so I did not watch it
Replying to (Not Spooky) Spark Dragon #sparkdragoon I care that the characters fit into the story of the world and not that the characters make the story up as they go
yep, that's what I think its going for too
it's "fun" in that it's mostly just a story of the MC fucking around and doing cool stuff
he's not wildly overpowered, there's no overarching story really, no real stakes, the supporting characters kind of just come and go
it's just Sunraku fucking around in a very open-ended setting
I like it in that it's simple and fun, but it doesn't really compete with story-driven stuff to me
Spooky describes what I like better
Replying to Phijkchu_Pikachu #klombak I know nothing about that, except based on what I heard it seemed like something I would not like
Yeah it’s kinda just rinse and repeat with fighting and same tropes.
Yeah, it seemed like battle shonen slop to me when we watched the trailers
and I saw normies hyping it up as the next best thing, so I figured that was correct
My buddy was obsessed with watching it and catching the new episodes, then the last few I think he realized it was kinda lame
That and the name of it is literally a fart
I think if I had to put my perspective on anime into words, I appreciate when a show accomplishes exactly what it set out to do and does it well. I think all of my favourite shows fall under that category
Replying to Dialga #god_of_time imo SLF is good but it goes off on too many side arcs and ignores too many already established interesting characters (edited)
This is also one reason I don’t like it, you get a new person and then nothing about them for a season, then it’s like oh hey remember me?
interspecies reviewers is a flawless product given what it set out to do
Watched any of the muv-luv universe animes?
