What's the difference between the game and the anime so far? I wouldn't mind a comparison commentary since I find that sort of thing interesting!

Highway Star turned out to be a real stand-up Stand after all.

So far I have watched up until the end of episode 1. Basically the game starts
with Sorey going to explore the ruins.
Alisha fell down the rubble. In the game she is just there and you find her with no prior context really lol.
wow better than Ted Chiang

Now lets take a look at this Hand shaker episode that shocked animegaf today.
Sounds awful.
But I've read 5 Ted Chiang stories so far, and each one has more content than all 5 episodes of ToZ added together...
From what I seen, the anime really starts to branch off after the Berseria advertisement episodes.

Probably because it's not an anime that started in 2016. Maybe it was for the best. Naruto's popularity on CR is unreal. Even when its overtaken by the other big shonens, it shoots up back to the top in less than a day

No differences from the game here. A bunch of scenes added here and there and a bigger focus on Alisha were put in place. I know Tales is anime af, but I am actually pleasantly surprised by just how good this is as a fantasy type show.

Helps that it looks great.
Oh cool, good info to have!
sounds 2dense4me since anime stories are typically so full of uh stuff
Can anyone help me with some recommendations?
I haven't watched anime since late high school early college, which is almost 10 years ago for me now. I subscribed to Funimation and then transferred to Crunchyroll to watch all of Dragon Ball/Super.
Now I want to keep my Crunchyroll subscription to keep up with Super, but to get my value I feel like I should watch *something* else.
Things I've liked in the past, in no particular order:
+ Excel Saga
+ Yakitate Japan
+ Naruto, for the beginning of it
+ Gurren Lagan first arc before kid grew up
+ Azumanga Daioh
+ Fullmetal Alchemist (only saw original show)
+ many other things I've long since forgotten
Please nothing "moe" or whatever. Otherwise I'm open to anything you could give an exciting pitch for.

Hand Shakers 1
So I was expecting much much worst from what people here were saying, but I do agree they abused on CGI and the lens/brightness could be tone down a bit. I mean something on K level? I never had any problem with that, but Hand shakers effects was a little hard on the eyes.
We did not get much out of the story, so not much to say here.
The one thing that did annoy me and make me laugh at other times were the boobies giggle physics and love moaning from that black hair girl. Seeing that prez giggling her boobies to the music gave me a good laugh, but god damn did that black hair girl annoyed me to no end.
I like the character designs so I guess that lets me forgive more stuff.
So yea an ok episode. Probably going to stop it a one episode tho. I only really watched it because AnimeGaf hated it with a passion.
Going try ACCA next.

Since you seem to like shonen stuff, I recommend checking out Noragami, Assassination Classroom, Twin star exorcist, Blue exorcist and if you want to try a sport shonen anime Haikyu is amazing!
If you want to branch out a little, Poco's Udon World and Barakamon will melt your heart with there sweetness.
For a more mystery show maybe Psycho pass and Occultic;nine
Gundam Iron Blooded orphans is also excellent and well worth your time.
Other then that, classic Hunter x Hunter and Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood recommendation.
Edit: Other amazing option get VRV or funimation and watch My Hero Academia!

Holy shit, a GoldCrusader recommendation post where he didn't recommend My Hero Academia.

Hmmm. Well I can't very well jump you right into Konosuba.
Have you watched or heard of Shokugeki no Soma aka Food Wars?
Try My Hero Academia.

He said recommendation for Crunchyroll silly! If he had not specified that you could be sure I would have made it the #1 recommendation.
Speaking of that CR really needs to had My Hero Academia to their anime list so things like this never happen again!

If you're ok with a really long show One Piece is great (though you should probably read the manga instead of watch the anime).

If he has like $3 extra a month he could get VRV which has all of Crunchyroll and Funimations stuff.

Cancel Crunchyroll, save the 20 bucks or whatever. Buy Sword of the Stranger on blu-ray. Watch 50 times.

Yea I think that I'll wait for ACCA to be dubbed to actually watch it. It really feels like a show I'll enjoy more that way.
I mean it can't be any worse than the third season.

Could tell him to import preorder Shin Godzilla. It's anime.

This was...painful to watch to put it lightly.
In this case they drag it out for the entire second half of the episode.
Oh yeah and the way

Seriously what is with this show and killing its good characters in horrible ways?

ACCA 1
This could be interesting, but the writing is painfully clunky in the way it dumps data about this fictional world on us. "As you know" is a phrase that should never be said or written by anyone, anywhere, anytime. I'd rather just have a narrator explain things to us than put exposition in the mouths of characters who have no business delivering exposition to each other. The art direction and colors are easy on the eyes, but the storyboarding isn't particularly strong, with an overuse of meaningless Dutch angles. The character art is mostly fine, but feels somewhat inconsistent, and even highly animated moments feel janky in their motion. I stand by my feeling from the trailer that the whole production seems undercooked, despite having a solid base to work off of. There's some plot threads simmering under the surface that could be interesting, such as the friction between different officials, the string of fires, and the rumors of a coup, so I'll keep watching for now, I guess, but this first episode was not especially compelling.

Nothing wrong with the YoI wins aside from Animation and OP.

This gives me even more faith that Dive!! will be simulcast!
Thanks for all the recommendations, I added many of them to my list.
I opted not to subscribe to VRV simply because it doesn't make sense to me to spend $3 more when one service will certainly have more than enough for me since I'm so out of the loop on anime. I generally only keep one of Netflix/HBO Now/Hulu/other active at a time
