Odd Taxi was indeed very good. I kept praising it in the seasonal thread ... holy shit that was like two years ago now Anyways, nobody else got on board to discuss it with me at the time I loved everything about this one!

Yay! It's great

The Elusive Samurai #109 Finally something exciting is set to happen in Jujutsu Kaisen We also skipped ahead to big stuff in Akane-banashi! I am kind of nervous to see things go for Akane. Latest chapters of Sakamoto Days have been great too. Very curious to see the conclusion of these flashback chapters.

I'm not really a hockey fan anymore, and certainly not much of a Leafs fan even if I still watched hockey. So they don't faze me anymore They always find a way to disappoint. I was more bummed about the Raptors this season. They have some talented players but they're an awful team. It was a terrible thing to watch. My Blue Jays might also disappoint me in the end this summer, but that could be more of an "out of their control" situation. The AL East is tough. They could win a ton of games and still come up short.

Every week Hell's Paradise confuses me in a new and interesting way I am not exactly loving this show, but I'm not hating it either. I guess it's one of those "it's just OK but you have to watch it to see what happens" kind of shows. Skip and Loafer continues to be the runaway hit for me this season. I look forward to it the most every week.

Yeah, the AL East is looking strong this year. The more balanced schedule is making it less of a bloodbath. They play each other a bit less, and play teams from weaker divisions more. Both Central divisions are quite bad. Especially the AL Central. Also, what's going on with the Cardinals Anyways, I could see four 90-win teams in the AL East when all is said and done. Maybe all AL East teams in the Wild Card games! I expected the Red Sox to be the last place team though, not the Yanks. When are your M's going to get back on track??

The second season of Witch from Mercury has been nuts I hope you're all still watching Anelle, Lucy, and Ma.

Bummer about the injury to Ray for Seattle too

I have definitely been watching and enjoying the new season of Dr. Stone. Two unexpected hits for me this season are Skip and Loafer and A Galaxy Next Door. Especially Skip and Loafer I recommend it for sure. @Anelle I think you might enjoy both of these shows.

The damn Rays… They’ve mostly been playing bad teams, but still kudos to them for winning all the games. Toronto should give them more of a challenge—I hope One problem is that the rotation is lined up such that Berrios, Kikuchi, and Manoah will be pitching this weekend. Berrios might just be bad now, Kikuchi is super unreliable, and Manoah is struggling to start this season. Yikes.

Great to have Suletta back in my life

Second episode of Hell’s Paradise was pretty solid. More memorable for me than the first. So I’ll stick with it a while longer.

I watched the first episode of A Galaxy Next Door tonight and I enjoyed it quite a lot. Good feel/vibes and I think it’s going to be a nice little story.

They won’t be this good all summer, but wow the Rays are off to a hot start! It’s nice to see the Pirates winning some games early on. The way that team has been run is quite pathetic. I want to see nice things for their fans.

Looking around at stuff in Crunchyroll last night, I totally did not realize that last year they did a Dr. Stone film introducing Ryusui. Watched it last night, and, I gotta say, it got me pretty hyped for the new season. Bring on the new world!

Sounds like a good time to me

Chapter 78

Lots of good stuff this week The Elusive Samurai Fabricant 100 Akane-banashi I am feeling pretty lost in Ichinose Family right now A bit reminiscent of PPPPPP in that regard. Eventually I assume it will all make sense. And I think I am even more lost in Jujutsu Kaisen. Gonna need to read a plot summary when the Culling Game arc ends New chapters of Gokurakugai and Show-ha Shoten! hit today too. I will read them tonight.

Happy birthday! Party down!

I checked out a couple new things this weekend… Hell’s Paradise Unremarkable. I was going to turn it off during the OP because the song was bad but I kept going. I’ll give it one more episode but not expecting it to hook me. My Home Hero The premise is kind of ridiculous but I sort of liked it. I guess I can identify with a middle-aged dad who wants to protect his family in spite of his weaknesses

Season finale of Stray Dogs was a little bit of a let down for me, but there were still some really good things too:

Happy birthday dudes

Yeah, a sequel was announced almost immediately after the finale aired

I liked the chapter this week too. There’s more to it than what I might have thought last week, but it’s also not too convoluted. Pretty good balance in that regard. Situation is getting critical again this week in The Elusive Samurai! Sakamoto was short this week
