I wonder if we'll be free of ZETSUBOU in PriConne yet

GFL
okay
let's start

Guns and robutts

GLF is almost over
i guess most shows are

Yeah, the end of March is coming up on us
Winter is almost over
Soon it will be spring

Bang you should go watch Machikado Mazoku before spring starts if you haven't
It's good and season two is next season

Looking at the shows that'll be airing next season, I'm not sure how strongly I feel about most of the new stuff
It's mostly stuff I haven't really heard of and synopsis are hard to work off
There's a few things I know from it though that ought to be fun

And there's a bunch of really good second season stuff, like more Shield Hero, Kaguya-sama (technically third season), Komi-san, Tiger & Bunny

wow, more tiger and bunny?

Yeah, it's been a long time coming
I might have to go see if the movie (I think there was a movie?) is chronologically canon
I only ever watched the TV series

oh yeah
shield hero is also on the list

Also it looks like there's another season of Isekai Bookworm coming too
And maybe more of JoJo? I can't really tell
Kyoukai Senki is picking up again too so I'll have to see if Kirara can be roused to join us for that again

Light the torches of Mecha, and rouse kirara's flaming heart that he may ally with Anime once more

Wow rude
Calling her warning wimpy

wow power armor humans

I was thinking we saw some of the Griffin commanders in armor like that last episode
Although they didn't have the heads on

Something I've been wondering, since I don't have much knowledge of the characters for GFL
Do they all have colour highlights in their hair like these dolls all have?
I've noticed it's pretty consistent with the dolls we've seen in the anime, at least the ones from Griffin

suisei

My brain is pretty corrupted
Can't hear Suisei and hear it as anything but

tribe nine!
okay
lets start

>>1035218
i mean in this context, it's not particularly strange
i can't remember wwhat hoshimachi means i just know it has to do with stars
because hoshi
comet starry-night?
comet falling star?
oh i see
starry-town comet
something like that

The machi part is a Kanji which means city/town

You'd have to ask Suisei herself what it means
Unlike pretty much every other Holomem, she built Suisei up entirely herself
So if there is any meaning beyond it sounding nice, she'd know what it is

oh that's right
he killed that old guy

Doesn't feel like too much of a loss
Although Ojiro is probably no less of a tyrant

so i'm not gonna try to look too deeply because of obvious futility
but i can't help but point out that in effect he's basically telling the entirety of society that it's time for some sort of strange arbitrated anarchy
what he's doing is kind of on the level of bane in dark knight rises
but kind of more fucked up

Maybe it's just personal interpretation but I think this is a horribly misguided idea of anarchism
Because there is an obvious power structure intended, despotism through baseball-induced violence
Might makes kings isn't anarchy, it's just violent chaos

i think we mostly said the same thing

Bane was a dumb fuck really thinking it was anarchy after all

>>1035231
Your post still made it sound like you thought it was anarchy, even if arbitrary
I don't think it's anarchy in the slighrest

"arbitrated anarchy" is so obviously oxymoronic that i don't think it would be very difficult to discern that you're trying to tell me something i know as if i don't

You're doing that thing where you presume a lot again
I couldn't tell if you thought it was actually anarchy or not

how couldn't you tell? what the fuck would "strange arbitrated anarchy" even mean
>>1035238
so because plenty of people, you assume, make some assumption, you can assume that i'm also making that assumption?
and you say i'm the one presuming things, when i've only outlined things clearly presented

Because plenty of people mis-assume that anarchy can exist within structures of power
I can't really tell from your post alone if you agree with that concept or not

>>1035237
Presumption != assumption
Again, from your original post by itself, I could not tell if you earnestly thought it was anarchy or not

>>1035239
this post is literally doing the thing you just accused me of
and for you to be sincere with the second half of this post is to admit a condescending position that i find insulting

Yes yes, we all know you think I'm condescending
At this point I tire of trying to convince you
So you're free to keep believing it

how can you not receognize that you're being utterly and insufferably condescending in the very post you mock me for feeling insulted by your condescension

have fun with anime

This is a plot I feel could have benefitted from another half-season or season of content
Also gives more time to play more XB
Kazuki's relationship with Ojiro isn't too hard to sell but the fact that it kind of came in five minutes of exposition was a bit of a let down
They could have built up some of the rival teams more so when this winner takes all power struggle kicked in, it could have felt more do-or-die
Like especially since Minato Tribe has to square off against those delinquents again now

I feel like this series gets more and more DRRRRRRRRR as it goes

Is that like Durarara DRRRR or jumping the shark DRRRRRRRR

dang dang ronpa DRRRRRRR

Oh hah hah
I still haven't actually played any of the Dangan Ronpa games
My only experience is the prequel anime that showed the downfall of one of the classes Junko infiltrated
Or however it went
It was airing alongside the anime season that was a sequel to the original games, but only you and Ika watched the sequel on e I think

This "World's best" bit is pretty Dangan Ronpa too
With all their highschool supertalents

yeah worlds best and worlds worst are super dangan

I've been enjoying this but I don't feel it's as concise as Akudama Drive was
That's still one of the best anime-originals I think I've watched in a while
Mostly because it knew what it wanted to do in the time it was given and pretty much executed that properly
I still hope this creative team does more wild shit original anime like this and Akudama though

this is waaaaaaaay more dangan than akudama was
akudama was more story driven
dangan is very character driven

bisco

oh no
what happened

oh i see
yeah

play
okay

let's change over to shikki
okay
lets start

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but we might be waiting all night on Bang for this one
We butted heads in the middle of Tribe Nine and I think he quit for the night

Okay, ready
Thanks
Sorry

Oh yeah I forgot they put themselves to sleep

A whole city of demons
Matty must feel like he's on a hunting safari

The magic in this world continues to be the kind where "We need to do something impossible, so let's use magic"

wow he just deactivated that guy

Seems like all the non-demon townspeople are also deactivated

I kinda prefer when magic systems in series have some kind rules and systems to it
Like even in other series where the MC is an OP superwizard or otherwise broken magic user, there's usually some system for it
Like ONII-SAMA's magic is always systematic and built on the way the world's magic works
And Rimuru in Slime Isekai needs to consume monsters and do powering up by practicing skills to break his abilities

Though I can appreciate the relative simplicity of this series
>Find demons
>Exterminate demons
Is basically the narrative arc of each arc in this series

these demons are so gonna get killed

To be fair, bait is her best role
Matty's right, she's tough, the only one besides him who could really take a beating
The others are better serving as the ambushees

He really does enjoy picking off demons

oh it's someone else who really likes killing demons

Oh
Yeah hah hah
I guess he decided to chase after Matty and his gang

I guess this adventurer guy was never even remotely a match of Matty
Considering Matty's taken out demons like this without much concern in the past
And he's taking a few hits

Oh the demon isn't even doing that thing the demons do where they go hulk mode
When it started talking about an ultimate mode I thought he'd do that
Or maybe that comes next episode

looks like he isn't dead yet

I guess we are coming up on the last episodes of this too
There hasn't really ever been something that felt climactic or a build up of tension
Kind of just a cruise the whole way through

feels like this one will not get much of a resolution

fantasy bishoujo
okay
lets start

After the fucking night pool last episode I don't know what to expect from this anymore

Oh yeah princess and I think there was another cute girl in the PV for this episode

oh
it makes sense this guy is with them

Yeah
It was easy to figure he's part of some spy network or assassin's guild
Just a matter of who

This sure is a weird king

Oh no

I mean
I have a feeling
Considering the kind of aides this king seems to keep on hand

This was not my feeling though

wow they got a lot of money

Being in with royalty will do that for you

Oh that's a nice suit on Jinguuji
It's a bit of a change from his usual suit

oh she actually looks nice in that dress

i think her regular design is not all that cute

I like it
It has a kind of Atelier-poi adventuring dress aesthetic to me

He's being a little mean to her
But she is also a walking disaster
In several ways, really

If only we could all be so lucky to become our ideal body

Wow a woman after my own heart

complex situation she's having here

That was a real journey through her consciousness hah hah

I wonder what her geass' effect would have on girls who are into other girls
Judging from the spy guy's reaction, guys that aren't interested in girls aren't swayed by her beauty
And women who are into guys don't react either
But does it have an effect on girls who like girls?

Jinguuji and this princess are powerful adversaries

wow

Assuming the king was right about her not being able to look after herself
If she could actually look after herself
She'd probably be a pretty terrifying woman

Nevermind, she already kind of is a pretty terrifying woman

That person?

hard to believe it's so late already

takagi ep9
okay
lets start

Yeah, we started a bit past half-past tonight
Unless we're making really good time, this is usually where we end up

I didn't sleep all that great last night and didn't nap much this evening
So my energy has kind of been a gradual wind down all night
Maybe I'll actually be able to sleep tonight

NO CHRISTMAS GO AND STAY GO

Even in his dreams he loses to Takagi

When I took the high school trip to Japan, we took a ferry trip like this across a lake
It might have even been this same lake; it's been so long that I can't remember the
Actually I might have something that can remind me

not that he'll ever get it
but she's been a lot more forward lately

It's been kind of cute to see her get aggressive
But yeah she'll have to spell it out for him to get it, and even then

Speaking of never getting it
Crane games

Plus at this point it's also fun that it's ambiguous whether she's just trying to tease him or is having her own struggles being open about her feelings
She admitted last episode that she chickened out of saying it

he's so dense

In his defense he is, like twelve or thirteen years old tops
Emotional intelligence isn't the best at that age

His spaghetti is in overdrive this episode

Nishikata please

For someone as incredibly dense as he is, he sure is good at responding to her affections

good Christmas episode

Very romantic, despite Nishikata's density

All this Christmas-y stuff is making me writhe a bit inside though

It's just kinda weird, having Christmas in March.

For a lot of reasons Christmas has become something a focus for my anxieties and unease over the years
I guess when I'm a bit wound up it kind of strikes a resonance

Well have a nice night, Rika!
Thanks for anime
