I don't want to watch a movie that tries to make Deadpool into a character.
Even if it's done ironically.
Deadpool is a background character who should show up every once and a while to point out how stupid comics are.
And then he should go back to being a background character.

Nope. Not interested in superhero movies. And deadpool even when I read marvel comics was annoying. Not quite gambit levels, but not something I'd want to endure.
Know nothing about deadpool, but apparently you can see Ryan Reynolds' penis in it, so I'm going tomorrow.
Waiting for you to confirm before I get my tickets.
Oh damn.
I don't disagree with anything you're saying here. It just seemed to me people were saying it straight up couldn't be done. It would take a deft hand to craft something compelling without a pre-packaged narrative or script and, frankly, writing is probably the one thing I'm continuously disappointed by in the Japanese animation industry. So it would be tough, but it could be done. Of course there is value in going for something original but there is no denying attaching a big IP is a good way to get additional eyes on your project, more sales and likely more support from potential sponsors to actually fund your shit. This is to say nothing of anyone at the potential anime studio that were to make this hypothetical project being being fans of the IP and wanting to work on it of their own volition.
Hatin' on Deadpool? That seems like an unusual opinion. At least I think it is?

Man I got waaaaaaay sick of his gimmick before he got meme popular on the internet. He's like the last remnant of the terrible 90s comic book era thats not Lobo because Lobo is actually cool in a dumb way
Yep, just not all that excited but I do want to go to a movie.
The Revenant screens later this month in my country.
Also, I enjoyed Zack Snyder movies except Sucker Punch.
Erased 6
This was a great episode, idk why some of you guys thought it wasn't.
Felt stronger than episodes 4 and 5 for me.
I also really liked the ending of this episode. By the way some of you were talking about it, it sounded like it was just as bad as the ending of episode 3 (despite being an excellent episode, you have to admit that last shot was shit). This ending, for me, cemented the killer's hubris as well as a nice artistic way of giving Satoru his final piece of the puzzle.
I will admit, though, that I do like the "past" episodes better mostly due to the direction, framing, and cinematic (almost memory-esque) feel to it. I feel like people would have probably liked this episode a lot more if episode 5 didn't happen, or if episode 5 was more like this one.

It's seems the reception of the Deadpool movie is pretty great and that it was funnier than expected. So far many good impressions.
Now I'm really hyped, can't wait to watch it.

I don't know, one look at this guy and I already dislike him.

I guess thats a way to look at it but everything about how it was executed just came off as goofy and way overplayed.
Erased was a 10/10 show but it has become a 8 or 9 show right now, at least for me. It's still good but now the kid detective stuff I didn't want has become a better option than multiple revivals. Because that's definitely not the end of them. It's still the best show of the season for me, as I don't feel like watching Rakugo after ep. 1, but it definitely seems disappointing after episodes 2 and 3. It still can have great scenes and a good ending though, it might be saved.
In the 90s he was drawn by Rob Liefeld, the dog of the drawing board, the illiterate of the pencil.
Never forget
Part 2 stans are the worst, there are few actually memorable moments in Part 2 and they're pretty much all limited to the Pillar Men fights. Part 3's format is a bit rough compared to later parts but almost every stand battle has some memorable moment.

Most of Part 2 are the pillar man fights though. There aren't a bunch of random throw away opponents that only exist to set up battles, unlike in Part 3.
Ah, so shows like Love Live are what people describe as monocle. I think I'm beginning to understand.
Middle part is always the boring one tho
Even for anime like Ping Pong, who remember its eps 4-6
OK eps 6 actually damn good at Ping Pong but eps 4-5 is your usual fare of staff "ok usual schedule fuckery, let sacrifice these to made epic late eps"
I tend never to judge an anime based on its middle episodes for this very reason.
Anywho...
Dog and Scissors episode 3
This show is just as bad as i remember it. Not a damn thing good about it. Everything is stock LN tropes done horribly mixed with just fucking terrible characters and animal abuse.
Who the hell thought this show (or even the source material) was worth creating?
Probably the same stupid assholes who thought analogous rape was sexy in diabolik lovers
Anywho, this episode cemented it, my most hated anime currently are:
1: Diabolik lovers
2: Dog and Scissors
3: Upotte
4: Vampire Holmes
5: Mayo Chiki

Why do you hate Upotte?
I could go on about the bad plot arcs, horribly inconsistent rules, the weird sexualization moments of 14-15 year old girls, the utter disregard for gun safety (slapstick by having someone shot is not funny), or even the flanderization of a certain character despite it being a 1 cour anime.
so, pretty much everything
It was beyond painful to watch.
5 pages ? You guys need to calmato.
This won't go well.
No.
The likelihood of getting FBI knocking at your door ?
So, speaking of those, do they actually offer a semi-coherent story for someone who hasn't played the game ? (Dropped that pile of trash 30 minutes in).
Erased 06
Yeah, slap a mighty fine moustache upon my face cause I liked it. It avoided the writing pitfalls that dragged down the previous episode and the stuff that irritates people; red eyes, deliberate obfuscation of people's faces, bother me none. Not really sure what was wrong with the ending, thought it was a really well done bit but I guess I'm always sucker for those zoom out of the eye moments ... I do however agree with Jarmel that given that Satoru is a hunted escapee, his nonchalant frolicking about the city doesn't feel appropriate.

We were shown a car that started trailing Airi the moment she went out of the hospital.

Well, i think Shirobako's middle part become freaking crazy and goes with even more crazy with each new episode.
Not sure about everyone else, but watching a bunch off asshole vampires force themselves onto a girl who clearly not into it is kinda creepy. I know there's a market for that kind of domination relationship, but it just wasn't for me.
With the amount of people questioning my bottom 5 anime, i'm becoming a little concerned
Its a little hard to pinpoint with mayo chiki. The first time i watched it i thought it was completely meh and hated the ending (or lack there of). Some of the characters rubbed me the wrong way.
The second time i watched it (don't ask why i rewatched it, i have no clue) i just really didn't like it. the main character, the scenario, the whole lot of it just didn't gel for me.
TBH its more of a placeholder #5 than a real #5

Why is Howard still alive? Maybe he's the example of what not to be, to keep the good kids on line or maybe because he can speak his mind about the others, but in most cases it was because "he" wanted to slack off or something even he couldn't do. He doesn't help of his own free will, he has to be forced to work, instead he goes out of his way to to thwart their work or put the blame on others, like he did on episode 12. He's a liability to them.
And it rubs me the wrong way the difference between his errors and the errors of the others are treated, but not that much because in Kaoru, Menori and Bell case they can think for themselves and reflect on their actions.
Luna's power is still strange, it shows the memories of others, and warns of dangers?
Now they have it pretty easy, since they found a pretty useful pack animal, they build a house for themselves with everything they need, even a shower(why?)...they started producing their own food on their own fertile soil(it grows so fast). They hunted down their principal predator, the giant lizard. Things are going well.
Now that they have satisfied their physiological and safety needs, Shingo starts longing for his family and remember they have to try fix the communication device to have a chance of getting out of "Australia".

Well I was going to move past the whole chocolate thing but then they opened the episode right with it.
As for the bulk of the episode, I think it was alright, better than the last.
Its been brought up constantly how bothersome the red eyes can be, if the point is to paint people in a malicious light there are other ways they could of did it, unless the culprit can see through their eyes or some shit like that but I doubt that. On that note, not sure how I feel about the journalist so far but I have a bit of doubt for most characters so far tbh.
During the first episodes I was wondering when we would jump back to the present and was a bit eager just to see how they would do it. Strangely enough, I feel like just a bit of tension has been lost, which of course shouldnt be the case considering the predicament Satorus still in. I suppose with the past it had a tighter grip on the time Satoru had left and had a prevalent feeling about it. Nonetheless, its good that he got a second to gain more info and process it, plus a fleeting calm personal moment. Though he seems to be a bit too much in the open, doesnt he?
My minor complaints aside, Im still enjoying this a lot. What a cliffhanger that was.

Was really hoping they wouldnt eat those marshmallows lol.

I still think its a bit ridiculous and more so after seeing Anris mother lament over the situation for a brief moment. Of course it connects to Anris trust in Satoru but its just a shame they didnt have a stronger backstory there or at least gave it a bit more depth but thats that lol.
As for the bulk of the episode, I think it was alright, better than the last.
Good and all that the manager helped Satoru get Anri out but the dude is still creepy and he must have still been hanging around the area which makes him even weirder.

I'm spending this long weekend at Montreal, as soon as I come back I'm hitting up the theaters for Deadpool too. I didn't even need the reviews to know that this is a movie that I would enjoy.

I hope people see the Finest Hours instead. It was really good, webbah.
Assassination Classroom Episode 28
I loved this arc in the manga and it was good for one episode in the anime, the school looked fantastic.
Shota that was chomping on Terasaka was the best one.

Why continue watching something that you have as your 2nd worst anime ever?
