Kenji is my new favorite. My favorite keeps changing.

Has anybody at the office even noticed that Dazai has been missing for... however long now? Or do they notice and just assume he'll turn up? Seems like the kinda thing they'd be used to.

Great gag with Tohru getting washed like a car. Of course Ono gets cast as the evil butler-type. That's a pretty good-looking souls clone, I wonder if KyoAni outsourced it to CG specialist company.

Lucoa's boobs are so big. So big.

They even copied the part where the rival group got a much more interesting song from the original ;p

And not even 1 fan? Even the Wake Up Girls had at least 1!

"I don't know, sometimes I just am places" is a pretty apt description of Dazai as well as Todd, so I guess it's the latter.

Ummm, you can't pause in Dark Souls. I thought KyoAni was supposed to be a good studio.

I dint think anyone worries about him since he's probably the safest of all given his power.

Wait they have Haikyu season 3? I would hope for a dub, but haha I can only dream. As it ever happen that a company releases a dub for a title they only owned one of the later season?Maybe they can push Sentai to fucking dub it. Fuck Sentai I hate them for releasing Haikyu sub-only.

Twin star and Poco's Udon World BD and dub when?

Since they're listed as the master licensee, it's very possible that they own the home video rights. For that situation, a recent example would be Free; Funimation dubbed and released the second season before the first season was dubbed at all. Crunchyroll released the first season of Free through Discotek as a sub-only DVD, and they have plans to release it on BD themselves with the dub that was later made for it. In Haikyu's case, I don't see this as being very likely. Especially not when it comes to Sentai; they are a very cheap company. If they don't see a point in dubbing something (as in, they believe the title doesn't have great sales potential), they won't. It saves them money that way.

Thought sentai already said they have home release rights, dont see the question here.

Well, looks like they do! Guess that answers GoldCrusader's question then; Sentai will be releasing it, and judging by the previous seasons it won't be dubbed.

Remember, that list from Crunchyroll that shows which anime they are the master licensee for means that there's a good chance of them owning the home video rights to an anime, but it doesn't guarantee that they do.

So having the master license doesn't mean you have the home video rights then? Well that answers my question. I was kind of confused with that list. Thanks for the clarification!

I'm still sad Haikyu will never an english dub. F*ck Sentai.

Oh my god, I'm dying. This is getting more hilarious by the episode.
There were way too many good scenes to list them all, but I need a gif of the scene of Megumin practicing make-believe explosion with the cat.
And the bar scene straight up slaughtered me.

About time we got back to good old fashion dungeon exploring. Also, am I the only one who isn't missing Darkness all that much?

One day I realized that sadness is just another word for not enough coffee.
Go make a thicc mei thread duckroll, you're not wanted here!

Having a master license for a property seems to be sort of a big bundle of licenses for a particular territory. This can be things like streaming, merchandising, television, and home video. It doesn't have to be all of them though; for example, I doubt that Crunchyroll is very interested in television. With Crunchyroll recently becoming interested in the home video market, they likely will be interested in releasing some of these titles on BD/DVD. That's why I said there's a good chance that they own the home video rights to many of them. No guarantee, of course.
 
ACCA-13 3

Why people are leaving this show saying it's too slow? It's strange to do it in this episode as it has been the one with the most plot progress.

-Factions appearing between the directors, trying to recruit people for each own, in the face of tumultuous times because the coming coup d'etat.
-We see finally the reason of the possible coup, the prince that is going to 'do a Trump' in the country, there are factions that want to avoid that, even if it means leaving their system of government.
-He is being accused of being a intermediate contact between rebels, that's why everyone is looking at him suspiciously.
-Though it seems that's false* and the boss, Grossular, is behind the rumors, with the plans of using him as a bait, and he is the real mastermind of the coup?
-The good king throws a curveball and doesn't abdicate as everyone expected in the coming of age ceremony of the prince. Maybe he knows more than he shows. The right hand of the king could also be in the conspiracy.

*false, but... he is receiving the cigs from someone? He was sent one with the potatoes box, I think.
 
I don't think the issue is that it's slow, I'm being bothered by the exposition. It's still my AOTS so far though. I just want shit to get rolling soon though, so far it has been pure set-up for what I expect the rest of the show will be
 
The easy going funny slacker who
tries his hardest to stick with you beyond all of the bullshit because he considers you his friend, only for you to fuck him over beyond any belief and when he tells you that you've hurt him and calls you out on it that's when you realize you've really messed up?

Good choice. I like Mr. Peanut Butter for similar reasons. Super positive until he
gets tired of Bojack's shit and then it gets too real.

I expected to be all over Tohru, but i'm really also liking Kobayashi this time around. Not that she was a bad character in the manga, but she didn't leave as much of an impression. The cast in general is just way better in the anime adaption, and the setting feels way more realized here than it did in the manga. Yeah, i'm really digging this adaptation.

Fun fact: They don't move in the manga.

Cute scene with megumin and chomsuke. Poor yun yun just wants to be in on the party. Great scenes all around and really excited for next episode.

Newest promo image for Kemono Friends features Mine Yoshizaki's Keroro! There was a tie in with the original Kemono Friends mobile app when it launched, but this is the first post-anime announcement promotional material featuring them.


Although I wonder how they'd end up looking if they appear in the anime with those 3d models...
 
It's odd, because they just reaffirmed that they're shooting for 30 minutes after the original broadcast in Japan, but 4 isn't up and there's no word on it. They didn't even say anything about 3's delay until yesterday, although maybe they have their hands full with the botched website rollout.

Though to be honest, trying to release the show within 30 minutes after it's air time was a pretty ballsy plan that was bound to eventually get hit with delays.

Sucks there was so much radio silence surrounding it though.
