anime

Pika please tell the tsubaki anime writers to stop introducing more characters

Have not watched it yet but lmao

spy x family went kinda crazy with the animation this episode for no reason

lol

To be fair, these are not like the last two sets where they literally just said "hey there are actually characters you've never seen or heard of before and they came back"

it was just focusing on 3 background characters

oh no

This season of anime was really good for non-sequels

yeah

lmfao. Whoever translated quitting heroing translated his mouth movements since he did not actually say any words audibly

I think this is the first time I've seen someone do that

the animation is that good that you can read their lips???

no

but I mean, they probably knew what he said anyways

so they just wrote it

damn

translators are psychic now

oh it replays the scene later

and its audible

lol

i'm telling you

they're psychic

they predicted the future

definitely didn't go back

Another good episode

The rare spooky mal update

Sadly, it will not effect the score because I read somewhere that mal only includes scores from people who have seen 20% of a show or more

which is why one piece has such an inflatedly high score despite being shit

Just wait for the manga to end in ten years

lol

You have to like something a lot to watch 200 episodes of it

People will streamline it the way they did naruto

thats cringe too

So those two hundred become something like 125

if you have to skip episodes, the show is bad

Which is still a lot for a single anime

I don’t hold filler against shows because they’re not the original story that’s being told

I do

make better shows

The only time filler matters is if it’s meant to enhance things instead of stall for time

I give zero shits about the source material of the thing I am watching

you can make good filler

if you have to make filler

making filler you need to skip to enjoy the show is the mark of a bad show

Nah it’s the Mark of bad filler

That’s on the studio not the writer

(if a show is mostly bad filler, its a bad show)

I agree they should make better filler if they have to make any at all

Also it is on the writer

the writer of the show

But it’s not on the work they’re making into an anime

I don't give a shit about source material as I said, so I don't care how good the source material is

it is a non factor in saying if an anime is good or not

But what I’m saying is filler made by toei is not an official part of one piece

okay, but it is an official part of the one piece anime

you can 100% judge the anime for it

Questionably

no

pretend the one piece manga did not exist at all

then you can judge the show for what it is

For example, you are not reading the one piece manga, you are watching the anime

Would you count the naruto episode where the characters acted like tv announcers to kill a half hour to keep their original time slot as part of the naruto anime

why does what the manga do have any bearing on if you think the show is good

I count that as a recap episode, most shows separate those out and being recap episodes

instead of being apart of the show itself

unless I am misunderstanding

did they literally just do a bit where they acted like tv announcers

Wasn’t recap, it was the va’s bullshitting in character about random shit like behind the scenes and like tv announcers

lmao

that is 100% apart of the anime then

and yes I judge it for that

if it was run as a normal episode

this is why long running shows like this are bad

It wasn’t considered part of the series by pierrot or any official source

And iirc it wasn’t run as a normal episode
