Well, there's Soredemo machi ga mawatteiru, Arakawa under the bridge, or Hanasaku Iroha for you to try then

One of these days. Maybe after firehawk finishes Utena.
I'll watch trade SoreMachi any day.

I'm probably going to watch that or Level E next. I haven't decided.
People seem to really love SoreMachi but I'm a huge Togashi fan and I haven't read Level E.
One Punch Man OAD - Road to Hero
That was pretty enjoyable. Obviously it didn't have the production values of a high end episode of the series, but since it was a relatively mundane flashback it worked well. Good direction and it's nice to see an extended story with Saitama in his pre-bald design. The music was also exceptionally on point for the episode.
Haikyu S2 - Episode 10
Goddamn. What a match. Even though it's just a practice match, it was so exciting it just flew by. Great to see all the individual things they've been trying at finally working together. They ended the episode at the worst possible moment though. I was all pumped up to see the end of the match and BAM... credits. Lol.

Natsu no Arashi is the best Omigawa role anyway.
How else do you deal with an unruly sister?

Struggling through Bake but breezing through Nise? I was pretty much the opposite, lol
In any case Second Season and Owari are both pretty great.
I wasn't used to the incredibly saturated dialogue. By the stargazing episode I finally got used to it.
Nise's just easy now.

Yeah it was. Probably because Ononoki is great.
That I can understand, ep 12 is really when it all comes together.
there are 3 episodes after the star gazing episode in bake btw
It is interesting how the Monogatari series seems to be just the natural progression of Araragi's sexual maturity.
It's a harem, and clearly he's had crosses with each of the girls at one point or another, but in the end he stays in his relationship while still being allowed to cross with all these characters.
It's weird but refreshing and the relationships actually seem far more realistic than your typical harem fare.
Yeah I had to find a pirate stream to watch those unfortunately.

Well, there's no doubt that Senjougahara is his girlfriend. Everything else becomes a part of the jousting that happens between the characters.

Monogatari is a series about Araragi being destroyed by a dozen different girls, verbally and physically, every day.

Maybe one day he'll mature to the point of actually interacting on-screen with his girlfriend instead of flirting with all those other girls all the time. Monogatari is a series that wants to have its cake and eat it too when it comes to Araragi and his harem.

The series was secretly about Senjougahara's harem the whole time.
Well they've made it clear he makes out with her quite often off screen. Perhaps omitting those scenes is meant to be left to everyone's imagination since it's kinda irrelevant to the series (although it would be nice to see them actually showing affection for one another. It's a big reason why I loved ep12 of Bake so much.)
Yet why does she completely cower to Hanekawa? Yeah she's a rival but damn for someone so strong she buckles to her quick.

What is this.
Strangely, almost each arc has a reason for why they actually never work together.

The reason everyone watches Monogatari
That's a really odd point. Keep watching, I haven't read the LN but I have my own thought about that.
MetroidPrimeRib

I think the only Monogatari LN that has been localized so far is Kizumonogatari (how Shinobu and Araragi met during spring break)
From what I understand Monogatari is pretty difficult to read because of how much Kanji Nisio uses? I wouldn't actually know. You can probably get them on Amazon.jp

Kinokuniya usually has them (at least in my country)
Ok cool.
For anyone who is Japanese literate, are there any suggestions for LNs or mangas that would help my literacy quest? I'm hoping to take at least the N3 by summer but I'd like to go as far as I can.
I should have stated I'm in the US.

This so much.
Like i love Ghibli and Miyazaki but fuck i found Wind Rises really self-indulgent.
Like Jiro is what Miyazaki fantasies himself to be. Watch nearly any Ghibli movie and you know they have a massive hard-on for flight or flying=independence/freedom. Im not saying all their movies have to be whimsy and wonder but Wind rises is so dry at times. Scenes were Jiro and his friend just sit smoking, talking about planes who was riveted by those apart from Miyazaki? Yes realism is nice to have but don't sacrifice entertainment for it.
I get the whole anti-war and corruption of creativity/beauty theme they were going for but it just felt really meh by Ghibli standards.

Yeah, that scene was pretty fun.
It's surprising how much better than this season has been in comparison to the first.
Oh nice, I forgot to check there to see if it was up yet.
And yeah, it definitely has been!

I don't think I've felt this way since finishing Adolescence of Utena.

I struggled too with text overload. I gradually got used to it. I shudder to think how people aren't fans of subs deal. Throw their hands after episode 1 I guess. Though I wouldn't watch it I feel I'd be amused to see a dub.

It's more to fill Ikuhara's need for cow episodes and for the writer's obsession with them. Watch that scene from melody of oblivion. *NSFW* (same writer)

I watched this in Thursday as always, but yesterday who knows why I started thinking a bit more about it, and man, that was a mistake.
The entire mystery hinges on the audience believing that
And why? Because the Japanese has a weird hard-on for "closed room" mysteries, who knows why. I have watched several Japanese media with the same theme, they seem to really like it. So this is the same, all the strained plot and setup in the end is just to make a ridiculous closed room murder mystery solved in a very contrived way.

-a high tech lab with guards, cams everywhere, etc didn't have cams in the Dr. Magata quarters, despite her being the prisoner who the guards were supposed to watch over.
-No one entered in her rooms in 15 years apart from the director. No guards to do periodic security checks, no medics to treat any illness and check on her, no maintenance staff to fix things that broke with the pass of years, or anyone delivering food. No one.

From the New World Episode 5
Also, DAMN sudden relationship upgrade is sudden, but it made sense, in its own way. And it didn't feel like it was there for fanservice.The scene felt very human.
Also, this episode had a pretty sudden art shift that apparently really confused people. Change in director. I actually felt the episode was nicely shot.
....But now I'm stuck wondering what the hell that white stuff at the end was.
