Autumn Anime 2017 |OT| Makes us all rotten

I thought Little Witch Academia TV was fine. Some people were really repulsed by it but I don't think it really warrants that kind of reaction, but I also understand why people would feel that way. I thought the character writing was absolutely abysmal...like in a way where the characters read better in the first 20 minute OVA. Diana in particular is a great example, she is still a vehicle for the best episodes but somehow they just totally screwed up the aspects of that character that gave her any aspect of depth or humanity. In the OVA she is skilled but still makes mistakes, getting in over her head as she tries to live up to the legacy of her family. Even her attitude carries a certain haughtiness to it, but ultimately she is apologetic and tries to right her wrongs. Sucy would be another example where she went from taking selfless actions at times in the OVA to just having this incomprehensible backstory or whatever in the TV series. She doesn't really want to be there, she is abrasive to a psychotic point and generally just comes across as completely unfriendly, but somehow she is supposed to be one of the primary supporting characters. And really that kind of stuff extends across the entire cast. They are so universally unlikable that it is kind of crazy. The bigger story stuff does not make any sense and has all these weird vestigial parts that you would think should have been cleaned up. But still...there's some cool set piece work and there are enough times where things click that I didn't mind watching the series.

Best scene
I'm sorry but Pumkin anything is no good.
Well he's doing a decent job in keeping everything in line so far. I'll give him that.
Boruto - 26
Seems like these random thugs aren't just random thugs. That's a shame.

Enjoying Tsuki Ga Kirei, when I'm not pausing it every 10 minutes or so when a scene triggers an embarassing memory while I was a teen.

The show does a great job of capturing that age's awkwardness when it comes to relationships.
I mean, I didn't like it very much, but it's a pretty damn inoffensive show, definitely not the type of thing that would "ruin" anything for you.

It does it very well. Also in capturing how teenagers talk and interact with friends/family.

I left my coffee on the counter at home, so I got me some Dunks this morning.
Great One, French Vanilla with Cream, 2 Splenda and a turbo shot.....
YUMMY!

Oh, there is a Takagi-san anime announced for Winter season. 2018 sure looks way stronger already than 2017.

I have no idea what you mean by Dunks
Gintama 101-105 Shinsengumi Crisis
Hijikata's the best. Some good moments for Kondo too this arc.
Most funny parts of the arc were probably the Shinpachi/Hijikata otaku debate, Gin shooting a rocket when he is meant to be saving Kondo, and Yamazaki's funeral.
The Ito redemption/send off was mostly well done too.

Oh a nickname for them.
We don't have Dunks up in Anchorage. We have like Golden Donuts and the likes. Like we just got Krispy Kremes here last year
Did you get them to garnish your coffee with a donut as well? I will say their standard joe isn't bad. Their donuts are about as good as you can expect from a chain.

Damm...up here in the north, we have this in Tim Hortons
or McDonalds Canada
Need to try them out at least once to see what this big fuzz about this stuff.

Despite the fact that donuts don't taste that well, they are at least used for deep metaphors in anime.

I don't mind donuts too much but I tend to get the timbits over donuts as I don't tend to eat those stuff here.
It's fantastic.
