Cream of the crop night, honestly
Perks of having three days of shows to choose from

sure is

baraou
okay
lets start

sunday nights are often the best nights
aside from the whole workingi n the morning thing

Thankfully up here it's a three-day weekend so I get to rest all tomorrow too
Which I really need

oh yeah it's presidents day here i think
i wonder whats up in canada

Family Day
We didn't actually have a holiday in February here in Ontario for the longest time
Family Day came into play maybe ten-fifteen years back
Dunno what it is elsewhere in the country

It's one of those things where it's just easier on everyone if we pair holidays with the States
Since the banks and most major businesses won't be doing much business on the day, it leaves our institutions with nothing to do too
Might as well give them the day off

holy shit warwick is intense
that line is killer

is that line stolen

Might be
It's been a long time since I actually read Richard III

Richard's going around dressed feminine
He's pretty much only ever dressed like a guy so far

Remember in the first episode where this series felt hella gay
And then we learned the weird truth

this guard wants some royal lady dick

she has a good oujo-sama voice

now we just need an ohohohoho

Wouldn't Edward recognize his own sibling as a prostitute though

well yeah
but by then
probably death

lol

Gosh

forced to kiss his brother before he ruins the escape

>Not unless Edward was to die

care for it as you would me
lol

Oh yeah this absolute brat of a wannabe king

Richard seems to have a penchant for being where people's hearts lay
First Henry and now Anne

genjitsu!
okay
lets start

Reaaaady

Disappearing a whole dragon skeleton is no small feat

lulu seems to have a lot on his hands now
but it's what he wanted

Some people just like work to work on

That looks like some kind of dumb Yu-Gi-Oh cyber dragon card
In fact I'm pretty sure there's a cyber dragon card which looks almost exactly like that

More of Julius and his whining
Seems like he's inherited his father's horrible governing too

Wow a dragonmaid

>How could Van, which suffered under my father's rule and had a brief taste of quality and freedom under Elfrieden rule, revolt and want to return to Elfrieden?

Oh I guess they don't want to just go right back to Souma and Elfrieden
And he might have to fight off two other kingdoms looking to gobble up Amidonia in its anarchy

Oh nevermind they've officially asked him to annex them
I do kinda doubt that would be enough to chase off the other two states trying to invade it though

every little bit helps

Except when it also hinders
Souma has some valid points
Elfrieden is already only barely on top of its food issues, and it sounds like Amidonia might be short of food too
What good is more land and more people if you can't feed them

Hah hah more paperwork
Oh paperwork they deliberately hid from Julius
Hard to tell it's because they didn't trust him to handle it intelligently, or hid it because without it he'd be without the information he needed to run the kingdom wisely
Therefore prompting him make stupid decisions which would accelerate his downfall

wait isn't this the dude that hangs out with the princess

Yeah, I think it is
I would guess that might tilt his activities around Julius into more of the malicious side

OH SHIT SHES HERE

season 1 he barely seems alright with the one wife he's basically going to be pressured into having regardless
season 2 he's on a fucking wife collection quest
like he unlocks and achievement when all the named characters are added to his collection

In a world where polygamy is a normal thing, collecting wives is probably a pretty straightforward way to force political ties
Forge them even
But I guess in darker cases, force would be accurate too

did they make it out to be a very normal thing?
i thought royalty and upper-class were the only ones for whom it was a common occurence
and even then it seems like it's not the norm, just something that's accepted well enough

To be precise there seems to be no moral backlash about it, even if it is not a numerically common thing
Which I would still consider as "normal"

vanitas!
okay
lets start

Vanitas still doesn't have his book back yet right

vanitas vanitas vanitas!
OH SHIT I FORGOT
NO
BAD THINGS HAPPENING
AHHHHHH

Bookless Vanitas

Man Vanitas is really amping up the romance
Although maybe this is all in Jeanne's head and she just wants Vanitas to be her hero

huh

This OP is such a good song

both OPs have been great
i really like the season 1 ED too

They're pretty unique as far as anisong go too
Fitting for the series, just unique

Polo?

i actually really thought astolfo was going to leave his sister behind and kill the vampire when he came back

uh oh
if astolfo is the way he is now
yeah

Less of actual evil and more a perpetual cycle of violence
This vampire's family was murdered by the Chausseurs, so he murdered Astolfo's family, which made him become a Chausseur and probably murdered some more vampire families

WHOA
WHOA WHOA WHOA WHOA
WE JUST SAW PART OF VANITAS PAST

final boss organ music

He used her own magic against her
The same machine which trapped the queen now traps her

The red and blue visual motifs of Jeanne and Vanitas looks really nice

vanitas might be my aots

this show has been at 300% power ever since the second cour started

It's time
for the best show of the seasons
season

and yes vanitas has been very intense lately
okay
lets start

No all seasons
A Marin for all seasons
>>1029383
Juju-sama

marin time
or wait
maybe it'll be about that other girl since she just appeared last episode
i forgot her name

ah yes
juju-sama
thank you

She's being persuaded with the power of saving money
It's a strong argument

juju's school uniform doesn't really look like a high school uniform

Geez ~$150/hour for a studio
I mean I guess you probably only need a few hours as a cosplayer, but still

yeah that's really dedicated

so while a lot of things are less expensive in japan, some things are actually more expensive because of the nature of individuals' spending budgets
average middle-class japanese person has more expendable income, so a lot of services like that are able to charge quite a bit more
although i'm sure 150/hr isn't even that bad really
depending on the level of profesionalism and the facilities

Gojou hasn't quite realized all the skills his he's practicing with cosplay making and dress-up are all things that will improve his hina doll craft

This is something a lot of masters of their craft tend to emphasize
It's where Miyazaki's mis-quoted line about "Anime was a mistake comes from"
He was concerned about the kids and younger generation only watching anime and deriving their understanding of animation and story from that alone
Where as he believed experiencing real life was important for really getting how animation should look and stories should be told

Terry Pratchet, the author of Discworld, had similar thoughts about reading a variety of fiction, not just fantasy or niche genres, if you really wanted to understand how to write a good story

gojou
snap out of it

AHAHAHA

not only was she more worried about her contacts
but also he didn't notice her eye color because he was too focused

It's funny how they have totally different priorities on these things

oh damn gojou's got the rectangle sandals

Nothing like a hardcore otaku's room to cool your hormonal jets

i went to a buddy's house who had the stereotypical zero-square-inches-of-wall-not-covered-in-limited-anime-posters-and-shelves-for-otaku-merchandise rooms
it was weird feeling

It's a good mahou shoujo outfit

the way marin is sitting down would give me anxiety

These stick and bean character designs really remind me of some older shows a friend of mine was a big friend of

Oh here she goes
She finally came around

Look at that HANDSOME profile

gojou's not super aware of his surroundings
probably for the best maybe
maybe not tho

she's really going off

Marin once she becomes powered by love is great
She's an unstoppable force

hahahahaha

S C R U N C H I E

wow taking a hoodie off and tying up hair before cooking
how strangely relatable
didn't expect that

(He totally did kind of notice)

cutting vegetables with nails like that sounds like a nightmare holy shit

Points for trying

the omelette part is definitely the harder part

I should cook some fried rice with chicken stock some time
My mother was never a fan of store-bought stock so we never had any at home
In retrospect that seems like an obvious flavour boost to fried rice

the way she destroyed it and wrote sorry is great

>>1029422
i've found this to be amazing, better than buying chicken stock even
it lasts in the fridge for a really long time too

Duly noted, I'll keep a look out
Or more likely, something similar
Aside from like, big name brands, it's pretty uncommon for stuff to make it 'cross the border

yeah
i'm sure there's an equivalent though

good ep
cant wait for next week

Am I behind or are there still 3.5 minutes left

it's not over yet
but we've moved away from the lovey dovey stuff for this week i think

Oh I see
That's what caught your heart eh

i'm half-expecting her younger sister to look older than her

Looking like the cousin of Konata from Lucky Star

yup

She looks older than her onee-chan in a lot of ways

she looks older than all of them

Oh yeah she's even taller than me
That's pretty crazy

it's ya
oops

It kinda got me there
I did expect her to be the onee-chan based off the OP
when they led into this i knew exactly how it was gonna be
but still crazy

okay
slow loo
okay
lets start

lol

Slow loo has entirely different connotations

That's a good ponytail on Koi

ponytail+hat is a good combo

for both men and women
in anime and real life
i like ponytail + hat

also i wear ponytail + hat
every day

koi was wearing a hat last episode i think

maybe the one before

I can't really do hats, my head's a weird shape and finding a mass-produced hat to fit it is hard
I could wear a toque but then I start looking way too Canadian

Oh shit it's a new-decade's "GWEEN TEA"

MOO GI

Her braids are nice

Oh I bet a mackerel burger would be pretty good
Especially made fresh on the coast

all of them have different hairstyles depending on whether they're fishing, out and about, hanging out at home
and outfits too
i love shows that pay attention to stuff like that

You could say she's hooked

hahahahaha
oh shit
hooked!
fuckin right

Going fishing in a place like that looks really comfy

Flyfishing seems to be a bit more of a workout than some other fishing methods
Lot of wrangling line with your hands and having to recast a lot

tsuritaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

i don't know if there's anything you can fry in butter than won't smell good
well i guess there are probably things but you probably shouldn't fry them

Ah fuck I love rainbow trout

yeah
clean forest like that is so nice

Reminds me of some of the cottage country I've cottage'd in growing up
I'm a cityslicker at heart but it's nice to get out there some time

the older i get
the more i think
i'm meant for the country

That generally seems to be the normal trend
Both my younger brother and the first of my younger sisters have comfortably settled into idealizing the country or at least non-metropolitan life
And I figure my imouto might end up that way, since she's got witchy dreams of living in some Scottish farmhouse in the middle of nowhere
But I love living in the city

live music is basically the biggest thing tying me to the city

slow loop is a very good comfy show
definitely one to put in the "break in case of emergency" folder

thanks for anime!

Yep, thanks for anime!
Have a nice night, and good luck with the workweek

hanks for anime

>>1029473
hank is for anime.
