Watched sentenced to be a hero. God I am happy we are in trend of getting one very well animated actual fantasy show every season or so

We were sort of talking about this, but I do think authors sometimes forget whether their story is/isn't an isekai now esp when they need their 12 y/o protag to be as smart as an adult or have some ooc knowledge

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 4, 2026 10:34 PM anime

I moreso meant that in a sense of most isekai's are soft fantasies that do not give a shit about their world beyond it just being the setting

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 4, 2026 10:34 PM anime

there are iskeai that are exceptions obviously

Spooky Phijkchu Jan 4, 2026 10:38 PM anime

The non-native-isekai meta

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 4, 2026 10:38 PM anime

Me when I catagorize konosuba pre-him being sent to another world in episode 1 as a native-isekai because he was a shut-in so going outside was another world

Spooky Phijkchu Jan 4, 2026 10:40 PM anime

Also, blind water mage (not to be confused with water mage or water sword mage)

Spooky Phijkchu Jan 4, 2026 10:40 PM anime

is going to be a mess

Spooky Phijkchu Jan 4, 2026 10:40 PM anime

but, it's got the best hamburgers I've seen in anime

Dane Jan 4, 2026 10:42 PM anime

thats a sandwich

legorhin Jan 4, 2026 10:43 PM anime

blind water mage seemed so close to MT before I stopped watching that I assume the maid is going to get knocked up

Spooky Phijkchu Jan 4, 2026 10:43 PM anime

my cannon is the maid was isekai'd there

Spooky Phijkchu Jan 4, 2026 10:44 PM anime

since she doesn't fit at all, and is just thirsting for the MC for absolutely no reason

sentenced to be a hero had a pretty good ep1

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 5, 2026 1:48 AM anime

Yeah, I liked it a lot

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 5, 2026 1:48 AM anime

Best E1 of the two things I've seen so far

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 5, 2026 1:48 AM anime

I liked strange fake's as well though

Gent Jan 5, 2026 2:56 AM anime

That was a good episode, it's a shame the main character is a swarthoid

legorhin Jan 5, 2026 7:26 AM anime

is this season the last oshi no ko or will there be one more?

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 5, 2026 8:50 AM anime

Since the series goes to shit, they should stop here

legorhin Jan 5, 2026 8:52 AM anime

I think this is technically the final arc but I expected the final season to be called the final season

legorhin Jan 5, 2026 8:53 AM anime

it could get an anime original ending to make it not quite as pointless

legorhin Jan 5, 2026 8:56 AM anime

actually no I forgot something, but its not a seasons worth of stuff before the actual final arc

legorhin Jan 5, 2026 10:24 AM anime

Ikoku Nikki seems decent enough but its very slow

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 5, 2026 11:12 AM anime

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 5, 2026 11:12 AM anime

I assume so

legorhin Jan 5, 2026 11:12 AM anime

I had no idea there was a third series

legorhin Jan 5, 2026 11:12 AM anime

i have only paid attention to railgun

Spooky Phijkchu Jan 5, 2026 2:36 PM anime

I'm glad he resisted the urge to timeskip

Pyrrhic Jan 5, 2026 7:55 PM anime

Having watched the first episode of Sentenced to Be a Hero, I think the show could be improved by having all the monsters be stick-figures. It'd make the show a lot less grusome.

2025 award nominations are up

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 6, 2026 1:27 AM anime

None of these are real

Spooky Phijkchu Jan 6, 2026 1:29 AM anime

I genuinely can't find it in their rules where they say "excluding Japan and China"

Spooky Phijkchu Jan 6, 2026 1:29 AM anime

becuse they have foreign animation in here

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 6, 2026 1:30 AM anime

They fucking have some random canadian film

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 6, 2026 1:30 AM anime

I have never heard of

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 6, 2026 1:30 AM anime

I also did look for the rule that excludes japan

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 6, 2026 1:31 AM anime

its just star wars visions

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 6, 2026 1:31 AM anime

that is the only jap thing I saw on there

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 6, 2026 1:31 AM anime

well, and the SEGA sonic crosswords advertisement

Spooky Phijkchu Jan 6, 2026 1:31 AM anime

actually

Spooky Phijkchu Jan 6, 2026 1:31 AM anime

Scarlet for nominated for best feature, and Chainsaw man

Spooky Phijkchu Jan 6, 2026 1:31 AM anime

so ig they are eligible?

Spooky Phijkchu Jan 6, 2026 1:32 AM anime

which just makes this whole list weirder

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 6, 2026 1:32 AM anime

Yeah there are some

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 6, 2026 1:32 AM anime

but its so few and far between, and the choices are weird

Spooky Phijkchu Jan 6, 2026 1:32 AM anime

like, I get favoritism, but when you nominate the fucking simpsons for best character animation

Spooky Phijkchu Jan 6, 2026 1:32 AM anime

you're a retard

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 6, 2026 1:32 AM anime

Smiling friends made it

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 6, 2026 1:32 AM anime

lets go

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 6, 2026 1:32 AM anime

stupid category to be nominated for

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 6, 2026 1:32 AM anime

but lets go

Spooky Phijkchu Jan 6, 2026 1:33 AM anime

the wizard was peak S3

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 6, 2026 1:33 AM anime

I agree

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 6, 2026 1:33 AM anime

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 6, 2026 1:33 AM anime

found another jap show

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 6, 2026 1:33 AM anime

Dan da dan can win something

legorhin Jan 6, 2026 1:34 AM anime

Spooky Phijkchu Jan 6, 2026 1:35 AM anime

it's just strange, because Japan (and China) produce a lot of artsy pretentious slop too and that's usually what award shows cater to

Spooky Phijkchu Jan 6, 2026 1:35 AM anime

this one's all over the place though

Phijkchu_Pikachu Jan 6, 2026 1:35 AM anime

Honestly, I liked some of the direction of the chainsaw man movie. It was better than the show

Spooky Phijkchu Jan 6, 2026 1:35 AM anime

fucking

legorhin Jan 6, 2026 1:35 AM anime

Spooky Phijkchu Jan 6, 2026 1:35 AM anime
