    Dandadan is total quality. Like flawless. Watched the third episode last night. Still loving it.

    Dandadan is really good. Can’t believe I slept on it for so long! I am also super enjoying the Ranma 1/2 remake. That is all I need to count this as a really good season (I’m still watching Tower of God S2 as well, but that’s almost more out of a sense of duty than for enjoyment )

    I watched the first episode of Dandadan last night. That was something else! It's a winner. It's tempting to start binge reading the manga right away... but I'll try to stick with just the anime until the end of the season, and then really sink my teeth into the manga. I also watched the first episode of Blue Box on the weekend. It wasn't really what I was hoping it would be. Oh well. Might give it another chance later on if I get bored enough. Maybe I'm passing judgement too soon I guess this season I'm only watching Dandadan, Ranma 1/2, and the continuation of Tower of God S2.

    The first episode of the Ranma1/2 remake was a hoot! Great with by MAPPA. It’s a winner for sure.

    Fall ‘24 season incoming! Links: MAL Fall 2024 Anime AniChart Fall 2024 Crunchyroll Fall 2024 Lineup I’ve got a few things on my list for the fall: Dandadan — I’ve been curious about this title in Jump for a while now. If the anime hooks me then I’ll catch up on the manga (~170 chapters) afterwards. Ao no Hako (Blue Box) — Same story as Dandadan, I’ve been meaning to check it out in Jump for a while now. Could be fun. I think Netflix has this one. Ranma — A new anime adaptation seems worth a look! MAPPA does good work. I think this will also be on Netflix. Looks like Tower of God S2 is continuing into the fall, so I’ll stick with it as well. The last couple episodes haven’t been terrible.

    2024 Seasonal Anime

    Coming down to the end of the Summer season now. This has got to be the slowest our seasonal thread has ever been. @Tassifox @Eizan where are you be!? I enjoyed the ending of Mayonaka Punch. It was a goofy show. Started slow but then found a stride after a few episodes. It was a pretty original idea. DeDeDeDe wrapped last week but I still haven't watched it as I was out of town last weekend. I mistakenly thought there was one more episode tonight, so I was going to watch both tonight. Guess I am only watching one episode tonight..! I am really not sure how it's going to end, but I'm excited to see what happens. The Elusive Samurai will finish up tomorrow night -- hopefully with the announcement of a second season soon following it. I have last weekend's episode saved, so the kiddo and I can watch episodes 11 and 12 tomorrow night This is no doubt my Anime of the Season. (DeDeDeDe comes in a close second place) Last thing on my list is S2 of Tower of God. I am not sure how long it's going to go. Is Sunday night's episode the last or will it continue into the Fall season? Dunno. MAL says it's unknown

    Anybody else watching DeDeDeDe..? You’re missing out if you’re not! Only three episodes left.

    Episode #9 of The Elusive Samurai was absolutely awesome. So much good stuff packed into one episode

    2024 Seasonal Anime

    Yeah that made it look awesome The first couple of episodes were especially good, but I have not noticed a major drop off in animation quality since then. I love the style and colours. It feels just a bit aged, but in a good way.

    2024 Seasonal Anime

    Any of you folks been watching Dead Dead Demons DeDeDeDe Destruction? (Let's just refer to it as DDDD from here on out! ) What a trip this thing is. It started out a bit slow, but then eventually takes some wild turns. It's an interesting mix of drama, sci-fi, some more atmospheric and almost slice-of-life-y elements, and some amusing humour sprinkled in as well. It's a vibe. Apparently the anime is an adaptation of a two-part movie series (with the movies based on a manga that ran from 2014-2022). It's supposed to be 18 episodes. It's up to #12 now, so there's still time to get on board and catch up before it ends. I just started watching it a few days ago and I binged through all the available episodes real fast.

    Didn’t know that but now I’m hyped!

    2024 Seasonal Anime

    It’s been great. Really good. Very cinematic at times. The sound, the animation, the voice acting. I am really enjoying it. I think it makes me feel nostalgic for something, like it feels like something I would have loved watching as a kid. It’s a big winner for me this season. Unrelated: I am still very confused by Tower of God. This week’s episode at least brought back familiar characters from the first season, but more explanation is needed.

    Still feeling pretty confused watching Tower of God but I am enjoying it nonetheless. Viole is Baam, right??? Mayonaka Punch has had a couple moments but overall is falling a bit flat for me. Probs keep watching it anyways. Tonight I have the second episode of The Elusive Samurai queued up to watch

    First episode of The Elusive Samurai was fantastic @Psycho666Soldier you’ve got to check it out.

    I watched the first episodes of Tower of God and Mayonaka Punch this week. I’m struggling to remember what the heck is going on in Tower of God, but I’ve got the gist of it. Characters started to look familiar even though I could not remember any names Mayonaka Punch is goofy and certainly an original premise. The main character is really not likeable at all though IMO. I will give it two or three more episodes but I might drop it. Also! I have no clue how I missed this, but The Elusive Samurai got an anime this season! I have added it to my watch list and I will watch the first episode tonight https://myanimelist.net/anime/54724/Nige_Jouzu_no_Wakagimi

    That is exciting and unexpected! It has been so long since I read the manga. Hardly remember anything about the story, if I’m being honest But I’m hyped for it anyway

    Sweet Jesus. The ending to Hibike! Euphonium was perfect. Absolutely perfect. I am dead The final episode, particularly the second half of it, a masterpiece. God damn I love this story and these characters

    2024 Seasonal Anime

    Spring 2024 season has nearly wrapped. Hibike! Euphonium S3 was easily my favourite thing to watch this season. The final episode is this weekend. Will they finally win at The Nationals??? My guess is no, because we don’t often get the perfect ending in these kinds of stories. But I’m hoping for it anyways Kaiju No. 8 and KonoSuba were runners-up for my favourite. I’m looking forward to continuing the Kaiju No. 8 manga. The last few episodes of KonoSuba were solid too. The ending was fairly predictable but well executed anyhow. I enjoyed the mini-drama with Darkness leaving the party. Train to the End of the World had a weird ending / non-ending that kind of made me question what was the point of even watching any of it It was a weird and at times fun ride I guess. Bartender was a good-but-not-great, comfortable watch. ——————— Summer season incoming! Links: MAL Summer 2024 page AniChart Summer 2024 page Crunchyroll Summer 2024 Lineup I’m not gonna watch a lot this summer. I’ll check out S2 of Tower of God even though I hardly remember anything about the first season at this point Mayonaka Punch sounds like it could be fun too. Nothing else is jumping out at me.

    I never got round to checking that one out. I don't think I will bother. I'm still enjoying everything that I signed up for this season. Hibike! Euphonium S3 and Kaiju No. 8 are tied for my top spot so far this season. RoOT and Konosuba S3 are fairly close behind them. Bartender and Train to the End of the World are not AOTS material but are both pleasant watches. Train to the End of the World is very kooky.

    I really love the Konosuba S3 ending tune.

    I was curious about Loser Ranger... buuuuut it's on Disney+ so that's a bit of an obstacle for me. I am basically Crunchyroll-or-bust, except for the occasional Netflix series. I'm also pretty bummed out that Jellyfish Can't Swim at Night is on HIDIVE and not Crunchy. Fortunately, everything else I was looking forward to is on Crunchy, and--so far so good--I am enjoying everything. RoOT has not been as good as the O.G. OddTaxi, but that's a pretty high bar to try to clear. I still think RoOT is enjoyable. It's an interesting and different spin on OddTaxi. Hibike! Euphonium is probably AOTS for me. Animation is as beautiful as before. I still love the characters. Some of the new first-year characters seem to be fun so far too. I'm so happy this show is back. Train to the End of the World is really quirky and weird. Probably kind of a like-it-or-hate-it kind of show. I am in the LIKE camp. It's only been one episode so far of both Kaiju No. 8 and KonoSuba. Liked what I've seen so far. Bartender is probably the weakest of the bunch for me this season, but I enjoy it for the chill atmosphere and all the booze talk

    First episode back of KonoSuba was a barrel of laughs I missed these crazy characters. I enjoyed the first episode of Kaiju No. 8 a lot too. It was a bit more silly than I was expecting (not in a bad way). Definitely looks like a keeper. Then I’ll pick up the manga from wherever the anime ends.

    Watched the second episode last night and I’m still enjoying the vibes of this one. Definitely a keeper for me this season.
