    Shit should get fairly interesting after ep 3 of Konosuba.

    From new content Kaiju 8 Gou and Go Go Loser Ranger are pretty fun. I like the turn around of the "bad guy" angle vs the trope heros. I've also been enjoying Wind Breaker even though that one wasn't on my radar from the list but gave it a shot. And Re:Monster is kinda like Reincarnated Slime but with Goblins instead and a touch more gruesome. Some of the other new ones on my list are okay but won't know for sure how good until a bit later.

    Yeah, I also liked how we were learning interesting tidbits about all the characters right until the end. I grew to like quite a few of the other test takers. So many good characters in this story in general. 


    I loved Fern’s choice of spell to learn from Serie. That’s so like her :lol: 

    And the last couple flashbacks to Frieren’s time with Himmel were perfect. 

    I would love to see another season—if all the same people are working on it. I know they teased at the end of the episode that the story continues, but I don’t think more anime has been announced. And Madhouse doesn’t seem to do a ton of sequels. The after-credits note might have just been to get people reading the manga… but I will still hope for more anime.

    Dude if I was able to get a spell to keep my clothes fucking clean at adventures I would die happy! How to other fantasy stories not introduce shit like this!?

    Frieren
     

    Spoiler

    I love how you still get to learn interesting little things about the other mages even when it's the last ep. Like how Serie called out the other one with the "you're probably drinking tea right now you mthfkr" XD like dude. That's ballsy af not to even be there at the actual mage test (possibly) this whole fucking time. And the small background story with Denken and his wife. And Serie being petty to ban Frieren from the ceremony :xd: Gotta love the cranky older elves.
    Stark would make a great bard with how easy everyone is charmed by him.
    Frieren with the stack of grimiores is me with books in general. *looks at TBR pile I currently have*

    Overall I'm glad my friends talked me into giving this series another try. It was beautifully animated especially in the fight scenes. The subtle character interactions and how the relationships grow. I appreciate that FernxStark wasn't done over the top in their romance but just small things of their small attitude changes or facial expressions. Or how you knew Frieren and Fern would be in a "fight" from how they interacted.
    I seriously hope we get another season since they are still on their way on their journey.

    I was double checking episode #'s and I'm kinda surprised Dungeon Menshi is gonna be 24 eps. Be interesting to see where else they take this but I thought with the story plot it was gonna end roughly at 12/13 eps.
    Same thing for Sengoku Youko. I wasn't surprised it would be a long series but the weird # is stops on. 37 eps. I can't remember the last time a series ended on a weird number like that. I'll def be sad when Frieren and Apothacary Diaries ends this week but they were both wonderful series.

    SO FOR SPRING LINEUP: As I mentioned between what's carrying over from Winter season and what series are doing new seasons I'm already packed in what I'm watching. I have a handful of titles from new content to see if it might be worth adding to watchlist but I was not impressed by much of it.

    Carrying over from Winter season:
    Tsukimichi S2
    Sengoku Youko
    Dungeon Menshi
    Urusei Yatsura S2

    NEW SEASONS OF FAVE SERIES:
    Konosuba S3
    Demon Slayer S5
    Jobless Hero S2 Pt 2
    Slime Datta Ken S3
    Hero Acadamia S7
    NEW BLACK BUTLER

    New Content/Maybes:
    Kaiju no. 8
    Sentai Daishikakku
    Kaii to Otome to Kamikakuji (this one I'm especially curious because dark horror genre)
    Re:Monster (gives me big Re:Zero vibes and not just because of the name)
    Karasu wa Aruji wo Erabanai

    :shrug:I mean we already have a thread for out of season anime watching. As long as spoiler comments are better covered /even if they don't seem like spoilers to you/ I'm fine with it.
    And if you're gonna do it, do it soon because with what's already crossing over from Winter and new seasons of continuing series my list is already halfway full of what I'm watching and gonna closer inspect the new new shows and see if they're gonna be on my spring list or wait until later.

    Wow these seasonal threads are getting quiet :crying2: :tumbleweed:

     

    Anybody else watching A Sign of Affection? It’s very heart-warming and charming :heart: 

    Welcome to RL taking over and we kinda don't really debate or go full in depth on discussion when watching seasonal stuff. We usually say the same remarks and move on. Most of my anime talk has been with close friends outside the forums. Plus there are times when I know I'm behind on watching eps and I avoid this thread of new comments in case of any hint of spoilers.

    As for the latter, nope. Wasn't feeling up for something like that and I've got plenty of series both continuing and new to keep me busy with content to watch. The 2 new series I've really been enjoying has been Majo to Yajuu and Metallic Rouge with Dungeon Menshi being 3rd runner up.

    Continuing series top faves have been Kusuriya no Hirogoto and Frieren, I felt the same surprise that there was some more eps than initially thought but also not complaining especially after ep 26.

    Fucking figures after they totally beat the crap of the Frieren double with that fucking absolute epic battle, what does she fucking do? Get caught in ANOTHER fucking mimic. :bitehard:

    They probably did it for the comedy/weirdness angle they're going with. Which is sad because Skarsgaard does really good voices when he gets into a role.

    Also looking over this again and wondering because of how it's edited. Is it just the "boy" that's grown up and not the girl? Like, are they doing something like where it's similar to OPM and the kid trains to where he's all adult physically but still a kid mentally? Slightly confused on that.

    Okay, like what i see in casting

    I love that his inner voice is Bob from Bon's Burgers

    Why do i feel the insanity in this movie should have been in the Borderlands LA Trailer because i feel this level of insanity is more in sync with that game than the "Dusty Guardians of the Galaxy" version that they gave us.

     

    And it's something fresh for once. I'd see it.

    Nimona is seriously the fucking best. I even don't mind the changes they did from the comic and gave it more of a main story because it flows and speaks the message so clearly for lgbtq+ voices. I fucking love her chaotic energy.

    Huh, that might ACTUALLY work with that casting. They're all great actors. And i can really visualize their personalities with each character. Especially Ebon Moss. He was fantastic in The Bear

    Oh yea went into my 40's with back pain :badrazz:

    So far it's been a great weekend. I took Saturday-Tues off work. So have had lunches with friends, they 3D printed me a Hoosifer from Owl House face to put on my front door :shiny: Bought lots of books, got my cute af Displacer Beast tattoo, and had drinks at one of my favorite watering holes. Today will be lunch and maybe more shopping with 1 friend and then meeting up with collage bestie to get a reading. Tomorrow is unsure but might just be a potato day to ease back into work on Wed :crying:
    Also tax refund came in this morning too so morning is starting out great.

    So far with the new stuff of Metallic Rouge and Majo to Yajuu I'm enjoying it. I also still really enjoy Dungeon Menshi but I can see why a couple of my friends bailed on it after ep 2
     

    Spoiler

    Their reasoning was that there's no sense of urgency to save their Sister healer from being digested by the dragon. If they wanted to go a more casual route with the food portion of the dungeon there's a few different ways they could have done the story so that it didn't just blow the wind out of it from saying "we gotta go save Falin!" and then take their sweet time going through things. And I get that. I'm still in it for the wholesome cooking but I will agree with them on that argument.


    Ishura tho I'm gonna bail. The first handful of episodes are spent introducing a lot of characters and talking about a lot of political stuff that I feel is still missing some context unless you had an outside source of information like playing a game or reading the manga. Makes it hard to want to get into it as a whole.

    As for continuing stuff still loving High Card, Urusei Yatsura, the Apothacary one, and Frieren. Mashle is still kinda fun but I might not continue it depending on how this season ends. FUCK I've missed Blue Exorcist tho and I really need to rebinge the previous seasons.

    Called it on Fisk coming back. No body seen means no death.
    I did like how they utilized the flashback on Echo's snippet of story from the Hawkeye show without it being a typical "previously, on Marvel's ___"
    And I love the collab they did with the Choctaw tribe and just how in depth they got into the culture.
