Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
The concept of a member of Bell's huge harem potentially being disguised as a different member of Bell's huge harem is pretty lol-worthy.

People on suki seem to think they'll do volume 10 as well. I guess we'll see.
As for being a romcom, the problem is that there's really no "rom" to root for. Forgetting my personal feelings about sensei (especially since he killed that ending dead lol), the only person he seems to be genuinely attracted to in any way is Saika.
HAH!

There is no way they don't do V10 unless the last few episodes are just random side quests.
He is physically attracted to all three of them, he's just the kind of person who couldn't conceive of them liking him back so he doesn't try.
Koko is the only reason I even aknowledge this show.
A lot of shows are saved at least somewhat by some standout character. Golden Time was occasionally enjoyable but it just has so much baggage it is exhausting not to mention frustrating.
I am ok with this. Plus if her character goes south theres still Lili.
Shaft is the greatest studio. It just is.
Blood-C is legit good though.
From the director of Girls und Panzer and Shirobako!!

Yeah, but for a show that privileges his internal monologue, the only time he shows actual attraction is when he has to constantly remind himself that Saika is male.
Well, that and what happened in this episode where he lamented the fact that he is 10 years too young for sensei.
It is. Blood C is an experience worth having.

I haven't enjoyed anything on The List. They're on there for a reason and you'll need more than a director of subpar shows to entice me!

Please stop bothering phoenix296 with List shows while he's currently busy watching three masterpieces.

You see I actually don't know about that.
I am still thinking they are related somehow, but they aren't the same person.

The List isn't there to be enjoyed.
I've enjoyed a number of list shows. Some of that enjoyment may have come from my sanity leaking out of my brain halfway through but there are some actually good shows too.

Inthe mythos of that particular Goddess, they are the same person (source: me doin a sixth grade report). Someone who read the LN confirmed it hasn't been said one way or another (so it's just speculation) but notice that a lot the shit Bell has gotten into has been instigated by her.
He has a normal level of of attraction to good looking girls though. It's just not stated all that much since he's a huge downer. But he was into Orimoto, so there's no way he's not into the other three.

Consecutively watching Yahari, Danmachi, and Soma, the past weeks have been an absolute pleasure.
But today in particular, all 3 made this day one of the most enjoyable times I've ever had of watching anime.

The List can be something that can be enjoyed provided you look at it in the right way. A truly bad show to me is one that bores me and can't keep me entertained, it fails in its basic duty as entertainment.
I've had fun with many of the series I watched on The List. Super Yo-Yo and Silver Fang are legitimately good shows in fact.
If they end Volume 9 at episode 10, then I don't see them doing Volume 10 in 2 episodes.
Unless this is 13 episodes, then yeah I can see it.
DanMachi 08
Okay, I'm back on track with this show now. It was losing me during the Lili arc, but that fight was too much fun for me to drop it now.

There are 13 episodes. TBS's page with the disc volume listings clearly state each volume's episodes and v7 has episodes 12/13.
I think I know the "twist" in Blood-C. Is it still worth watching?
Yes because it's all about the execution!

Uh interesting. Yeah I could totally see it and I wouldn't be surprised if it were true, but put side by side they both have some small differences physically, which is why I can't help but think that they might not be the same person also. I like that the answer seems so easy, yet no one can say for sure if it's way or the other lol.
Only 3 I watch on Fridays and I always finish them satisfied, but this week all 3 were amazing. Wonder if next season will also have a day of the week with just a bunch of awesome shows to watch all at once.

Honey and Clover ep.6-8
This show is a slow burner for sure. It does have some comedy built into it, like the Twister game and some small drama thing like
and poor Yuuta really likes
Poor sensei
and Shinobu is, umm, well, not sure what he's thinking most if the tine older than it appears he likes the little doll girl too. When does this one heat up?

Danmachi 8 this week was top tier.
Black Rock Shooter-3
Really slow episode that reinforced how shitty the portrayal of the relationship between Mato and Yomi is, compared to the OVA. In the OVA, Yomi's jealousy of Yui felt much more organic due to the slower nature of the work. Here, Yomi looks like a possessive stalker as she is unsatisfied with being only friends with Mato after just like a damn week. It's way too soon in the narrative for something like that to pop up and the way the TV series handles it, it does so in the most clumsy manner possible. For example this sequence:
Oh wow that smile is totally not predatory at all. I'm sure the counselor is good people.
What the fuck? Who cries in sync like that? This is not only so cheesy that it harms the believability of Yomi's jealousy but it also hurts the emotion in the previous scene. Not to mention the show seemingly amplified the relationship between Yuu and Mato this episode compared to others, giving the impression of Okada making it up as she goes. There's also some really stupid shit besides the Kohata drama such as that little bird book randomly falling off a shelf. o rly? In addition I have no clue how these 'other-world' sequences make a lick of sense. There seems to be real life consequences in real-time but Mato is awake at the same time BRS is doing whatever. I should mention that Kagari's shit being wrapped up so neatly, didn't leave me with a good impression. Anyway the crux of this episode is Kohata and her feelings.
Jesus, Okada. You really can't reign this shit in can you? This was like the most bullshit forced drama sequence ever. It's as if Okada has a suffering quota and doesn't give a shit when she meets that quota. Oh well, at least Kohata isn't hung up on it despite her male classmastes being the world's biggest cunts. Right?
god damnit

They are in no way equals. Bell is OP for a LvL 1 Adventurer when you reach LvL 2 your stats reset but you become 2-3 x stronger.
Aiz is a LvL 6 Adventurer she is probably around 20-30x stronger than Bell as he is now.
I didn't mean statistically.
I meant that Aiz probably respects him and sees him as an equal now.

Patlabor: The Next Generation - 1
This episode concludes with a pretty classic scenario of a disgruntled Labor driver getting drunk and taking a hostage. Not-Goto was pretty alright, but the whole sequence ends with SV2's Labor shooting the place where a giant comical explosion happens. It doesn't make any sense and just transitions into an unrelated scene. These sorts of script/tonal issues aside, I think the bedrock is good enough that this series could turn into something better. Here's hoping.
It waaaaas.... okay. This first episode felt like a re-establishing of what Patlabor really is, and I think it did so effectively, but that didn't necessarily make it good. I think my problem was with a lot of the humor. There was a good amount of it (in true Patlabor fashion), but it felt sort of unadapted for this. Bits that might have been great in the animated series felt really cartoony and kinda lame here. It's honestly the feeling I get with certain Japanese live-action in general. It sort of leaves you with a feeling of "What's the joke..?". The characters (who are not the same cast as the series, but essentially carbon copies anyway) are decently adapted into this. But again, Ota's raving mania is a lot less endearing in this live-action setting. There's a strange disconnect in the tone that might be more effectively achieved in the animated medium.

My Dungeon Harem Cant Be This Gory 8
Well, that was fucking awesome.
I feel bad for Lili, she's always getting bodied and hurt. I had to laugh when Bell threw her aside though lol. But damn. I didnt expect that fight to be so violent. I kinda winced when Bell got his forearm gored by the Minotaur but I couldnt help clapping like a dirty American when he fucking blew up the top half of its body from the inside. Syr is a double agent for that orgasming goddess too I bet.
Today was a great day for anime.

All the above points are very valid! No more liking that chick, all eyes on Hestia. I just finished watching that whole fight sequence again on my PS4 and damn, it's Soo good!
Now we just need a Log Horizon MMO and a Zelda esque Danmachi game on PS4 or Vita, lol.

DanMachi 7-8
Pretty good episodes, nice seeing Bell's progression. The Minotaur fight was good and it was nice seeing Bell use his skills to defeat the boss.
Freya got completely turned on, that face screams complete lust. Now just thinking about it, if Ainz stole Bell's fight Freya would of been completely salty. That would of been hilarious.

It was really well done. I was surprised.
Man this series gives me a craving for some kind of action RPG. Like Kingdom Hearts minus the mindfuckery.
Yo DanMachi delivered so effen hard. That episode just oozed of bildungsroman. Let's go man!
I know for a fact that I'm gonna end up hating Freya with a passion cause she'll ruin the whole damn plot. I hate characters like her, wish someone would... Let me stop there.
RANK S ON ALL OF THAT!!!

Let's say that in 4 next chapters you'll see who will make first move on Hagu. Then there'll be development for Mayama's side of story.I don't know about heat, but Rika's and sensei story should've been great in sense of feelings.

I almost feel like I should pick back up Danmachi, but is it actually worth watching if I disliked both Bell and Hestia based off the first 3 episodes?
Cornbread78
Member
Umm, yeah. Let's just say this isn't the same Bell anymore.
Yeah, that was, I'm just not sure why he couldn't get over it and be by her side. I understand what he said, but surely he'll fix that after being gone for the year.
Well there was a kid that just slept over and really cares for Hagu, but I have a feeling she is going to go for eccentric one, because that is just the way it is with the arrs, lol. Besides, he makes great soy sauce art.

Personally if you don't like the MC and Hestia from the first 3 episodes then your better off not watching more. I mean they are the same and haven't changed that much especially Hestia, plus I doubt a decent fight scene will change your mind.
Though you can try it if you want.
