    It’s a good time for getting caught up on stuff. Lots of good action going on in Sakamoto and Elusive Samurai right now. Akane-banashi it still on a good run too.

    I randomly started watching the first season of Mashle this week out of boredom and I quickly finished the first 12 episodes. A bit surprised how much I’m enjoying it! I’m looking forward to getting caught up in the second season. 
     

    I am still enjoying Metallic Rouge and especially Frieren. 
     

    also A Sign of Affection is lovely :heart:

    Wayne Kramer (MC5 guitarist and co-founder) kicked the bucket today :-/

    Elusive Samurai (#142) got a really slick colour cover page today :nod: Very excited to see what happens in this fight in the next chapter!!!

     

    Sakamoto #152–That was an intense fight between Nagumo and Gaku! :O.O:

    Seasons is definitely my favorite of the two :nod:

     

    edit: I’m glad somebody finally started the 2024 thread! I honestly have nothing to contribute because all I play (still, 2+ years going strong!) is Diablo 2: Resurrected. Not I like reading everybody else’s write-ups.

    Ye, I saw episode 19 dropped on Crunchy on Friday, so I’ve only got a couple episodes to go to get fully caught up. I watched #17 on Friday night. I wanted to keep going but I was getting sleepy. I don’t want to nod off and miss part of this show. I’ll watch more tonight if I have time.

     

    It was unfortunate to see Sein go off in a different direction in episode 17, but it feels like they will link up with him again before too long.

    Very quickly got up to episode #10 in Frieren. Still enjoying it a lot! It’s a thing of beauty. 

    I knew those demons were up to no good right away, just like Frieren did. I loved the fight between Fern, Stark, and the two demons (Linie and Lugner?) The way Frieren dealt with Aura was awesome too. 



    Stark has been a nice addition. Frieren and Fern are both very subdued characters, a bit dull at times, so Stark brings up the energy a bit.

    Second episode of A Sign of Affection was more feel-good, comfy stuff :nod: Yuki is a truly likeable main character :heart: 

     

    I also got started finally on Frieren last night. Holy smokes, can’t believe I slept on this show all last season. I love the style and aesthetics, very nice work by Madhouse, and I immediately connected with the characters. I look forward to binge watching this to get caught up :shiny:

    I checked out a couple of new shows tonight and I think they’re both keepers. 
     

    Metallic Rouge has a nice mix of sci-fi and action. Very solid animation and production from Bones. Definitely got my attention. 
     

    A Sign of Affection is exactly what I hoped it would be. Love the main character already :heart: I am really looking forward to see where things go in the next episode.

    Jeez, 2024 sucks. Sorry to hear that dude. Potentially buying a house is big news though—good luck! We bought our first place last spring. House hunting is kind of fun… but if it turns into a cycle of seeing places, making offers, and getting out-bid… then it starts to become painful. But you will eventually find the right place at the right price. You just have to stick it out and try to keep positive.

    I binged a bunch of JJBA Part 6 - Stone Ocean over the holidays. Almost caught up to current. IIRC up to chapter 109 is out on the Jump app. 49 chapters to go to finish it, so that’s basically  a year if it’s on a weekly schedule. 
     

    Stone Ocean was a slow starter for me, similar to Golden Wind, but some of the characters and stands have really grown on me. I am enjoying it.

    The finale of JJK wasn’t super duper smooth. Apparently another series has been announced to cover the next arc (The Culling Game). It has been quite hard to follow at times in the manga. I hope they can make it better in the anime. The manga feels like it is heading towards an ending soon-ish.
