Eccentric Family S2 ep.10
Fuck this show, stupid Yasaboro. You really fucked up this time..
The episode itself wasn't bad, but we already know the outcome and so doesn't everyone else. I mean, Elf was elevated last week as well, but it just feels like filler, lol.

this looks like a fun and silly cartoon
The outcome of course is 'now go read the books for the rest of the story'.

Still, they could not stray that far from the original concept. LWA main charm and reason for funding was the animation deriving from classic Gainax, kinda like the shojo equivalent of TTGL. Though this had been done before in Yucie.
Characterisation solid enough for a TV series was never on the forefront.
Tweeny Witches demolishes LWA on all fronts.
I didn't watch anything for like two months.

I'm not sure what you mean here. Yoshinari's fluid, curvy animation style as seen in LWA is distinct to Imaishi's disjunct, jagged animation style. I can't fathom how LWA's animation is a shoujo equivalent of TTGL.
Something was announced a little while back.

They are no longer the 90s type of terrible and improved since then, so yes, a lot of people care about dubs.
WE'RE NOT SO DIFFERENT AKKO, YOU AND I.

It's why I subscribe to funimation. Sometimes I just want to watch the animation completely without having to out brainpower into reading.
That and MHA dub is fantastic.
Watching it weekly destroys your soul.

My highlight of the summer season lineup.
If just watching it, lazily on your arse while munching on crisps, weekly is soul crushing, imagine being the one animating it weekly.
Dragon Ball Super Episode 94
Really solid episode, with some killer art. Poor Krillin, he married into a weird family.
I love goooolllld.
Honestly, that bit is the *only* thing that's managed to hype me up about Frieza since he was reintroduced. The arrogance, but with so much power to back it up. In a sense, it reminds me of Gilgamesh from Fate.

I mean both styles were trademarks of Gainax animation, despite the differences

Is Little Witch Academia worth watching? Currently on episode 17
I can't speak for the rest of the show since I'm only on 18, but 18 is a must watch.
A funny question to ask at this many episodes in though : )

I was out of town with limited internet connection, so im like 5 episodes behind on all the shows i picked up this season. Probably start with AoT and MHA first though

Little Witch Academia 23
This show can actually be good when focusing on the relationships between the characters. Diana and Akko bring out the best in each other. Would've preferred if Chariot wasn't tricked for that whole ordeal, but they can't make her too much of a dick I guess.

Armed Girls Machiavellianism 02
Let's see here. There's the 5 main bosses but then there are 5 jobber bosses below them with one special optional boss that's more powerful than the 5 main bosses. I think I have that right...
LOL, whips are a shit weapon and easily turned to the wielder's disadvantage, hahaha

Aikatsu Stars 60
I'm amused that Ako is the only one that sees the issue with S4 promoting their greatest enemy. But an interview is a good way to spy on her. Elza eating so much steak cannot be good for her. Seriously, for breakfast? At least she eats her salad even if she dislikes it. How have people not realized that she doesn't take applicants yet? And wow, telling Alice to escort Yume and the gang only to expel her on tape. That's some next level dickery for Aikatsu. And Yume's like, oh that's cool? Like, I get that they're trying to push multiple ways for Aikatsu, but it feels like everyone is just giving Elza the benefit of the doubt because she's Elza-sama, and everything Elza-sama does is perfect. A bit more backstory for Rei, where she joined Elza because Elza insulted her. Well, this episode certainly drove the point home that Elza is a villain, even if Yume won't accept it.

Wait, this is happening!?!?!?!?!?
I just watched the 90's show last year. It was great, especially for fans of Dragon Quest.
Can they update the video quality too so it doesn't feel like I'm watching shows that take place in dark caves with no lights in them?

I'm still waiting for your post on the latest LWA episode! What's taking so long!
they in fact reduced bitrate in video with the audio change if you look at the chart
still supposedly way better than before their relaunch earlier this year. I am just hoping this means videos won't glitch out on my roku anymore.

Aim for the Ace 26 END
It's too bad the show ended here. I got a little bored with the doubles arc - the drama that had dominated the earlier portion of the show subsided and the focus on more standard sports action and strategy was not especially compelling. But the training camp that closed this series ratcheted my interest back up, as Coach Munakata once again ramps up the pressure on Hiromi as he pushes her into the mold he has designed for her in order for her to be able to compete on an international level. This last episode was the most thrilling of them all, as the idiosyncrasies of Dezaki's style were on full display as Hiromi and Ryuuzaki poured out their sweat and blood (literally) onto the tennis court. Their emotion was matched with camera pans and tilts, starkly symbolic layouts, and dramatic faces and poses. The episode demonstrates just how exciting Dezaki can make melodrama. When watching him operating at full strength (within the TV space) like this, there's no question in my mind as to why Osamu Dezaki is regarded as one of the all-time great anime directors.

The show continues after this with the second series and there is also a movie covering an alternative perspective of the first series.
LWA 23
I told you Chariot did nuthing wrong.
Heybot 01
Literally what.
Nozaki-kun 01
I watched this back in the day, one of my first seasonal watches IIRC but it's actually somewhat better than I remember maybe, due to me being more accustomed to various animeisms and having better grasp on quality of animation in TV anime. Chiyo's VA is putting in a delightful shift too.

I know there's the second series, but Dezaki isn't director anymore so that's kind of a bummer. I definitely will be watching his movie version though.
If Umineko taught me anything, it'd be that yes, it is.
