it looks like new is dumbbell, isekai cheat magician, kanata no astra, maou-sama right? we still haven't touched jikkyouchuu so that's the first episode still? oh i guess i could have formatted that better.
New: dumbbell isekai cheat magician kanata no astra maou-sama
Anno
Yeah, that's right. Episode one of Isekai Cheat Magician, the rest are new episode twos.
im going to bully that boy if he doesn't start showing up soon
I have to start working at 3:00am EST that's usually when we stop anyway it's not really an issue though if we roll over though
we sometimes roll like 10 or 15 minutes past but it's not really a hard stop
Anno
I'll try pinging him again tonight.
Anno
That's usually about the time I like to make sure we're done by anyway. At the least we can do the stuff that aired newly today and have a decent list to begin with. Maybe a fifth show of Arifureta or Nakanohito or Vinland if we make good time.
Let's sub one of those out for Kanata no Astra though; that show was really, really good. Maybe either Isekai or Arifureta since they're both isekai shows.
it's a pretty show but i don't follow action sequences very well they're not good storytelling devices
Anno
I love seeing cool dynamic pseudocamera sequences in anime. Most shows keep a very static or boring camera, even studios like Trigger rarely employ a dynamic and active camera for their shows. So whenever an anime studio breaks from standard to have a camera in the anime that moves aggressively it really draws me in.
月
oh lucky i want to work on a sheep farm
Anno
Hah hah they're already bringing in the big names of the Vikings.
Anno
What's wrong with being a kid with a beard.
月
>you're just like a kid with a bear >beard* >he has no beard ??
MYTH & ROID seems to get a lot of anime OP/EDs for isekai series. Overlord, Re:Zero, Tanya the Evil, this show ... I know there's some others I'm forgetting but there's more I think.
Anno
Wow they got blood all over her nice white robes.
Anno
I don't think we're in Kansas anymore, Toto.
月
oh that's unappealing
Anno
>What's that Come on girl don't tell me you've never seen a horse before.
I've never been able to stick with an MMO long enough to find a role I'm comfortable in. I'd imagine something of a status toolkit would be up my alley though. I like throwing status effects and stuff like that around.
the first half was going well enough but the second half was all exposition about trying to measure their power
it's vague what power even means
Anno
Yeah as far as isekai shows go that was pretty much as standard fare as it goes. For an episode one at least. Without any unique hook it just kind of ends up being ... eh. Hopefully they'll have something a little more engaging next episode.
this would be really fun to come up with all these space creature ideas
Anno
Yeah, it's a fun side to working on a space series with a dash of fantasy. You get to play a little loose with realism while not really leaving reality too far behind.
it's definitely fluffy she's cute as heck but she's definitely an opportunist
they actually announced in the first episode that one of them was a traitor, remember? i can't remember how though something happened that one of them was responsible for
what was it?
Anno
AND they've got a traitor on board the ship. What a mystery.
watching characters light up a cigarette, even in an anime now, makes me feel kind of sick i hate that smoky feeling it's so gross
Anno
I think the visual of having a cigarette in the mouth is kind of charming but the rest of the aspect of smoking is unpleasant to me. Nothing like having a mouthful of smoke.
月
this 8-bit music haha it makes the scene feel so weird
>>714632 yeah i can't smoke anymore at all it makes me feel so gross
Anno
Yeah it was a bit off-tone. It was a nice tune but didn't really fit in.
Anno
Oh he's finally found someone that can deal damage to him.
for talking so much, she's kind of a pushover haha just handed him all that money
Anno
The tiara she's got makes the outfit a little bit much, hah hah. They're still kind of adventuring, something a little more suitable for the road should be a better choice.
Hopefully we can get Jan along at some point and clean up JoJo. So we'll only have stuff from this season to watch. That'll give me a better idea of what the weekly flow of shows is like.
Would be nice to actually get started though Rikaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
>>714661 I'd still consider it kind of good but still not really above the pack like some of the other shows we've seen so far have been. I definitely took UchiMusume better than it at least.
it's fiiiiine it's been five minutes im fine for time anyway
i need to figure out some breakfat though breakfast natto would be nice {\/}{\/}{\/}{\/}[][][]{\/}{\/} munchers may as well practice some smm2 level design while we're here
maybe maou was too comfy and she fell asleep it was surprisingly comfy that episode the first episode left me feeling very meh about it but that one was more fun
i think it will be better than i originally anticipated >>714660 i dunno. not especially above the pack no, but it leans more towards good than bad. I feel like it's kind of a jan show too. i think he'd really like it
ah sorry about that but I'm here now let's watch haha
Anno
Got caught up flirting?
Anno
>>714661 Yeah, Maou is a very Jan-poi character. The whole thing probably feels comfortably in that Final Fantasy-esque setting that makes him happy too.
are we at 2:30? i didn't notice right away when Yuu came back 2:40 ok
Anno
If they were all playing games it could be easy to get Kirara to bully Jan into showing up but that avenue's probably not open again yet.
Anno
MUSSLE
Anno
His body really is a freak of nature.
Anno
I wouldn't mind having something like semi-private access to some place that has some machines like those. A private gym is no good but something like maybe a condo complex with a gym would be nice. Some place I can use machines without worrying about too many strangers around. Machines appeal more to me than basic weights.
