Nichijou Episodes 4-10 - Further into the show now and I think my earlier sentient of finding it more amusing than laugh out loud funny still holds up. There's been a few standout segments, like the principal wrestling a deer and Yuuko having that emotional breakdown in the restaurant because they're taking too long to serve her food. But for the most part, I tend to find the segments more cute than hilarious.

I'll wait for Kado reactions tomorrow. But I guess many will enjoy it in a
type of way as the show wasn't doing a particular good job as a low key sci fi I guess.

Because Tsukai didn't act until now, I think.
.I don't know guys.
She doesn't strike me as the type of girl I could play Mario Party with...

hm.
I liked what this show started as, like a lot more than what it's turning out to be, but I'm fine with it going full energy swords
at the end of the day it's still about why did this alien come to earth, and what's going to be humanity's fate now that he did? like it has been since the beginning.

lavishly animated s2 opening that ends with regular inferno cop waking up like it was the ending of newhart

I don't know how the japanese shin chan compares to the dub, but I laugh like a maniac at the dumbest things in this show everytime I watch it.
Like when the rich girl who has a crush on Shin invites him to her recital, and as she walks onto the stage there is a big sign that says "Clap, or we will find you". I don't know just how much the writing is a direct translation. Obvious topical political humor aside of course, which is clearly american.

I'm pretty intrigued by this week's Kado. I did brush off the reactions given how I've been reading the same about the last week's episode which actually turned out fine. This seems to be the real deal reading the same from folk who liked it haha.
I can understand it being a poor after taste for an "ending" but it hasn't nearly ruined the entire show for me. I can't bring myself to overlook 11 episodes over that scene.
I suppose part of me refuses to believe that and I think that's fine.

Grimoire of Zero would be good if it weren't so bad.
I can't tell if this is the production's fault or the source's fault. But the production is bad, the world is bland, the dialogue is anachronistic, the motivations are cliched, and the exposition hamfisted.
But like, there's a good story in there somewhere about terrorism, about the spread of technology, about moderate vs radical ideologies, and about surrogate fatherhood/daughterhood. Also it has mofu mofu.
It's just so blech as a package.

i also made this gif, which is very important
Best girl taking the lead.
To me, it's just a "junk food" anime that is fun to watch with good characters interactions and an interesting story/adventure embedded in it.
The last 2 episodes or so of koyomonogatari are very important, so you should definitely watch them before Owari 2.

This was a good movie. I read the first part of the manga when everyone was kids and dropped it after time skip. So a lot of this movie was new to me and I gotta say I enjoyed the vast majority of the movie itself.
That said every character besides Shouko's family and uhhh...Broccoli haircut dude can go get fucked.

I don't like that this was a bully redemption story and all the bullies get their redemption. Fuck that noise. I realize that is a super basic as fuck review of the movie but I don't care. I wish the movie had ended at the bridge scene after Ishida tells everyone off and was at a super low point. Shouko should have told them all to piss off.
My Hero Academia Season 2, Episode 11:
With the emotional climax delivered in this story while happening in the second round of a tournament it is time to fat forward all of the other matches in order to end up with the logical main event level final match. Also we get introduced to The Punisher of this universe.

Cardfight!! Vanguard G NEXT - Diffrider Episode 29 (Engdub)
Wow different dimension rider = diffrider, it makes so much sense now.
Takuto being brought up and connecting this arc to Asia Circuit was pretty awesome

This is by far my biggest disappointment in a while. I was looking forward to Ais adventures, instead some annoying as hell Lefiya keeps getting shoved into the forefront. Is the LN/manga this bad? Makes me want to drop it completely. Just bring back Bell and Hestia.

Re:Creators 10
This episode should've happened way sooner.
That said, most of the character writing is still really dumb. Alice, for no reason, continues to trust someone who admits to being a chronic liar. Yuya engages in dialogue with a character whose power he knows relies on talking. Rui finally gets to fight, but instead of any kind of interesting "knight vs giant fucking mecha", they just clone the mech and have him fight himself.
At least the Twitter thing was fun.

Attack on Titan - 36
Both 'budget' and direction were rather lacking. Hell, even the sound direction, which is usually exceptionally strong, was iffy, especially early on.
Sometimes the show really takes advantage of the scale the titans offer and there could've been some sublime shots of the scouts charging after Reiner's titan. However, there were few and the long-distance shots were often plagued by the crappy CGI horses. There also just wasn't much dynamic camera movement I would've enjoyed. While I'm asking for a lot from a TV episode one has to consider that the last 3 episodes were sort of building up to this and not exactly lavishly animated.
A sense of space was also not properly communicated and I've got no damn idea how the hell Erwin's group managed to get so far ahead of Reiner, especially when those guys were initially lacking behind Mikasa, Hannes and co.
I did thoroughly enjoy the dialogue, between all these soldiers and (former) friends. Mikasa and Berthold in particular delivered.
So yeh, can't help but feel rather let down. Since episode 31 (or 06 in S2) delivered so damn nicely I was hopeful we'd get their a-game for this final climax :/

Can't say I agree, but to each his own.
imho Shouya deserves his redemption. He got punished for 5 years, feels intense regret over his actions and then proceeds to make things right by helping Shouko reconnect with the world. He's even willing to make the ultimate sacrifice by giving his own life to save Shouko (in the manga, on the balcony he says something along the lines of "if you must take someone, take me instead of her" and then falls).
I don't think the other bullies are redeemed. Especially Uneo who loses the guy she loves to Shouko.

Anyways, I started Sound! Euphonium and it's great so far.
My Hero Academia 24
The post-Todoroki vs Midoriya related events took an interesting turn with the Nurse chastising Deku and All Might for being reckless. For the first time and to my surprise, Deku questions All Might if he is even fit for it, I won't deny this thought passed me hearing what the Nurse had to say and I didn't expect Deku to ask it as well. That was cool.
I was a bit taken aback with the way they brushed through the remaining battles. In a sense it is better than to inflate it with meaningless drama not unusual in shonen action shows but damn 5 battles in an episode....
There's also a new development for the next arc I presume, I'm not sure what to expect out of it considering it doesn't have anything to do with the Academia itself.

These few episode are episodes this show needed to have a whole lot sooner than it did. Otherwise my biggest complaint is Knight is a giant walking dumbass and I hope Sword Princess cuts her end off by the head of this.

This show's end cards are something else I swear.
What happened?
You seem to be quite agitated over the way it ended but I just want you to think about it in another perspective.
I get what you're saying about bullying but in the film, it's not just abuse towards others but also themselves which can be just as bad consequently.
If you don't agree with the idea that Nishimiya's classmates deserve any redemption, it can be said about Nishimiya as well
coming to an understanding of themselves and choosing to improve, it's not whether or not they wrote their past off but everyone at some level always wanted to get better but they weren't sure if they deserve it or if it's too late so they perpetuated in whatever state they were in. The film touches on that aspect of the characters: why they remain the way they are and eventually showing that they still have hope to get better, effectively, they were saved from being what they were.

This might be the day I finally watch Tiger Mask W to see why it's decently beloved here. Gotta use up this weekend to watch animu I haven't yet.
