I assumed you meant you watched Claymore or something from the 2000s
Lodoss is straight 90s
No lol, I saw Lodoss getting shilled by some guy on twitter
it was alright, ending was kind of rushed though
also they aired episode 5 as episode 1 for no reason
Syren, I do await the arc where Pika decides to actually watch old stuff
I have so much stuff post 2005 that I want to watch so keep waiting
why '05
No reason, I picked an arbitrary year post 2000
I know I have some stuff from like 2008ish probably on my wheel of anime
Its mostly going to be shows between 2008 and 2014 (the period that is almost modern but before I was watching anime)
Anyways if there is an old show that does not have the trappings of most old shows (mainly godawful pacing), I'd consider watching it
also not 100+ episodes long
the actual volume of "old" shows worth watching isn't that high
Yeah, thats also what I figured
because there was just less of it
Looking through old mal seasons and seeing which shows were forgotten to time or not is funny
Not the biggest fan of the older artstyle, I think some older artstyles can look nice, but some looks meh to me
there are probably <10 shows that I'd even recommend from the 80s (excluding movies and OVAs)
And its all of gundum just to force me to watch all of gundum
KappaRosss
Syren you are the main older show guy I know, but I guess your older shows are 90s shows
When I see an older show I've heard of I just assume Syren has seen it
1997-2007 imo is where a lot of classic shows came from
before the big upsurge in modern anime
I am not saying good shows did not come out beyond those years, but that is the peak of anime
or however the copypasta goes
I think 2008ish era has some charm when you were getting stuff like index, shana, etc
uh, original fate
those are the only things I can think of
but I know there is some good shows from that era
I think I said this in vc at some point
but Shana to me was the bridge between the old era and the new
for a bunch of reasons
S1 in 2005 ---> S3 in 2011
culturally, technically, socially, etc

Welcome back Jashin-chan x2
I didn't realize the dude in the game center show was in college. This show is even funnier since its about a middleschooler college dude romance
In Japan that could techncially be <3 years apart
even though in this case, it's clearly 5+
Yeah
Replying to Kribbles #kribbles1 Hikaru ga Shinda Natsu is so stressful, fuck.
It does a good job not blueballing for the whole episode
I assume it's 24 episodes, no way the could fully adapt it in 12
Its jaring because half of it is just in English
if you like Hikaru ga Shinda Natsu, I highly recommend Shiki
One of my all times
Replying to legorhin #jazardly is the show any good?
No, but watch E1 you'll get a laugh out of it

I finally finished last season
aharen sure was a season 2 of all time
In Dialga news, apparently Vshoujo just nuked itself as a company
Everyone either directly quit, or is very clearly planning on it
Apparently they were not paying people, and stole 500k from chairty donations ironmose raised if I recall what I read correctly
The previously dragon hololive vtuber did a stream with the japanese branch ceo, he said "The japanese branch is doing well financially", to which she responded with "why have you not payed me then" and quit on stream
which was funny
kson is a japanese woman who I think still lived in Japan, and Henya as well
I think it was a glorified "local manager"
Either way, apparently literally every vtuber has either quit or made it clear they are going to formally quit, so that company is done
zero recovery
pippa pipkin reigns supreme and takes phase connect to the number one vtuber company or something I guess
I didn't realize both vtubers I passively liked a little who got bullied into quitting their previous vtubing career were with vshoujo lol
https://x.com/ksononair/status/1947661332524028139 she is NOT taking this situation well
Replying to Phijkchu_Pikachu #klombak In Dialga news, apparently Vshoujo just nuked itself as a company
why is this "dialga news"
After that time I saw you on a warpath on twitter over something, I associate all vtuber stuff with you
