Yuu
what's hensuki again?
Anno
It's the harem romcom with the girl that wants to be a dog and all the other girls probably have secret perversions too.
Yuu
ah yeah okay What's the word on Jan?
月
i tried calling him but i didn't get an answer. i left him a couple texts though. im not going to watch fire girls without him though i told him i'd watch with him
if you want to watch it i can sit out until it's done though
Anno
Well I'd be lying if I said I wasn't anticipating it, but it's also extremely true that we have ... a lot of other options, hah hah.
Yuu
We plenty other stuff
kimetsu cope craft granblem nakanahito Araburu
Araburu was a comfy one right
Anno
It was the Okada Mari one about girls discovering sex. Might be a little comfy before the drama engine begins to rev.
月
comfy trains a little too comfy trains
Yuu
oh right Did you want to do that one moon?
月
After a good bit of thought I've decided to trust Okada Mari on this one! let's do it
Yuu
I wanna
hmm
let's do that 4
and do okaa-san online for 56
for 5
oaky kimetsu! okay lets start!
Anno
Okaa-san will probably be comfy-ish. It's a pretty cutesy isekai. Also has a great character designer behind the characters.
月
ready for nezuko abs
Anno
Oh that historical piece about young Nobunaga is also out for tonight. I missed putting it in the list.
月
oh there's an actual show called okaa-san online haha
i was trying to figure out what show rika was talking about
Anno
The series' Japanese title roughly translates into "Do You Love Your Mom And Her Two-Hit Multi-Target Attacks?" Which is a really weird title but it's about a guy and his mom that get isekai'd into a game-like world. Only the MC is a total wimp and his mom gets all the awesome skills and power that an isekai protagonist normally gets.
月
haha she's so adorable
Anno
Nezuko really is the goodest girl.
This is a nice old lady too.
Anno
Oh that kind of looks like a spider's web. I guess we might be seeing a spider youkai soon then.
Also I wonder what Tanjirou's reaction to seeing Nezuko in combat might be.
月
how is that bird not a meal yet
Anno
Tanjirou probably feels it's his duty to keep it alive even if it's an annoying creature.
Anno
Tanjirou's really been dealt a rum hand, getting two people he has a hard time handling.
Anno
Man I really love these older, greenery-coated mountains like the ones in Japan. Mountains really are so nice.
Anno
>This is making me hungry Uh, what exactly about this situation would be making you hungry.
Anno
Afadsafgsd Okay there area lot of spiders.
Anno
Eugh this entire situation is extremely not my AESTHETIC
月
does he see through the boar's snout?
Anno
He probably doesn't even look he just moves on all his other senses.
月
swords are a lot scarier than guns! i said so before
Anno
Oh maybe we'll see how some of the higher eschelons of the Demon Slayers fight. Though I guess we saw a bit of the guy of those two at the start of the series.
Anno
The goofier OST tracks for this anime are pretty good. They're also kind of an un Kajiura Yuuki sound. Good of her to actually be experimenting for once.
Anno
Oh this is kind of zombie-poi.
月
haha
Anno
Now they're very marionette like.
Anno
Inosuke's enthusiasm is pretty endearing.
月
i like him yeah
月
that went pretty fast
Anno
This show's pretty good at keeping you engaged. Time flies when you're having fun.
Yuu
okay cop craft!
haha sorry got caught up in some stuff okay, let's start!
Anno
Glad to see you again, Rika.
月
this show gets my vote for quick turnaround
it started off really bleak but turned real exciting in the first episode
Anno
These two have a good dynamic too.
Yuu
this is a good OP
Anno
We've got a couple jazzy OPs this season. That's pretty fun.
月
it's a very high energy OP
it's what made me think it'd be lupin-esque action but it's a little more paced
Anno
Yeah, hearing it a second time with that in mind had me see where you got the idea it might be a Lupin-esque show.
Anno
Oh no is she going to start touching things again. Have you forgotten what happened last time you got all touchy girl.
Yuu
investigation anime is cool
Anno
Especially when it's blended with a bit of fantasy. There seems to have been a decent bit of worldbuilding put into this series too. Thought put into the way the cultures would have collided with each other and evolved. Things like that make the fantasy nerd in me excited.
月
haha
Anno
POUT
Anno
Honestly even eighteen seems a bit old for her.
Anno
That was a fast turnaround. Hah hah hah she's really running him a little ragged.
月Anno
His license plate has ZAQ on it. I wonder if she's involved with the music in this series.
Anno
Oh gosh that really is a cute cat.
月
there's lots of screencaps this episode
Anno
Well ZAQ's not part of the anime staff but the OST is composed by Iwasaki Taku, who did the music for Gurren Lagann, among some other shows.
月
a fairy bomb huh
Anno
Faerie bomb!
月
that's pretty scary
Anno
This ikemen asshole is quite the monster himself. I wonder if people in the isekai world are consistently more like him or more like the little girl.
月
>autopsy to determine if it was suicide umm
Anno
Well maybe the autopsy would uncover other aspects of the death, like if the suicide-looking gunshot took place before or after the body deceased.
Anno
She's clever, leaving her sword to trick him into thinking she'd be right back/
月
she's got a lot of cute angles
Yuu
She looks a lot cuter in casual mode
月
i like her character design the fashion style in general feels very cozy and noble at the same time
Anno
In her line of work it makes sense to prioritize function over fashion!
Yuu
granblem! what episode of this are we on
aaaaaaaaaaahhhhh okay 2 then let's start !
Anno
There should only be two episodes of this out. This is the series with the girls that fight in the kind of SD-style mechas.
月
granbelm was this one also a cute one
月
wow wowww
Anno
Pink kind of reminds me of CHAIR-chan from Anima Yell.
Anno
Wow that was some subtle magic.
月
this has a really cute art style and color pallette
Anno
Yeah. The character designer is generally pretty good at making cute girls.
Anno
Wow she just forced herself on her.
月
cute pink headphones i want some
Anno
The generational thing with mages here is kind of reminiscent of the Type-MOON mages and stuff.
Yuu
This seems to be a mish-mash of influences from other series.
I get a really strong madoka vibe. Especially with these two characters having black and pink hair.
Anno
Yeah, I see what you mean.
月
madoka didn't have too many mecha! this episode hasn't had much mecha in it but in general the show does seem to
Anno
Well the mecha is another mashed mish from another series.
Wow these two are some real bitches.
Anno
It's neat how the Torii gate out in their bay mirrors the weird structure that seems to be at the heart of the GRANBELM world. I mean that's obviously significant but I wonder why it is. If there's a reason behind the intent or if it's just a detail
Yuu
The clothes designs, magical and otherwise, remind me of that other edgy magical girl show. The one where evil QB was running a phone game. and everybody fucking died
She seems like the kind of person that would fit really well into a leadership position too.
月
she might be a bit pushover for a leadership position
Anno
Yeah she could work a bit on that but she seems to have a good social organization mindset already. If she can get some confidence in herself she could end up pretty strong.
月
i know how she feels
Anno
Yeah it's a pretty understandable feeling.
月
i dont have anything too
Anno
Flower power!
月
she's with them in the ed so i guess they work it out
月
this is a good ED too
Anno
Yeah, it's nice.
Yuu
okay Araburu okay lets start
月
ive been checking amazon all day for Prime Day but it's a little underwhelming
not as exciting of sales as they make it seem
Anno
Prime is always underwhelming up here. Any sale you guys get, is always like two-thirds the quality here. I was looking at Micro SD cards for my Switch because I want one for Animal Crossing and they seem to go on sale. But I can probably get one during Boxing Day closer to release anyway.
月
she had some big fat anime nerd following her around gross
Anno
Yeah it's people like that which make me worry and be self-conscious about being friendly with total strangers!
Anno
This is a nice OP, both visually and musically. I like HoneyWorks' stuff.
Anno
Wow what is this girl doing.
Anno
She's a little conniving.
月
wow
Anno
>People expressing sexual interest in you even when you're a kid How horrifying.
Anno
I guess that gives more context into her weird insistence on dadasfadsas Oh no.
Anno
These two really need some help though hah hah.
Anno
They 're still able to maintain a modicum of childhood friendliness at least. Wonder how long that'll last though.
Anno
SHAKE HANDS PUREESE
Anno
Their club president is funny to me too. They're all some pretty endearing kids.
Yuu
I wonder what direction okada is going to take this in.
Anno
I think it's going to chronicle all the girls as they struggle with finding love.
Oh gosh ow.
Anno
She does look like she would be pretty striking if she dressed up a bit though. Her face is actually pretty cute.
Yeah this dweeb has the right idea.
Yuu
They did make her especially cute in that scene
Anno
Oh GOSH HOLEY WAR
Anno
Man this almost makes me wish there'd been a literary club I could have joined when I was in high school. This looks like a lot of fun.
Anno
The white-haired girl is a pretty good friend. She kind of seems aloof but she does something like this without asking.
Anno
Ah oh no. This poor girl.
Yuu
haha she's getting weird in the head
Anno
I wonder who Braids is gonna find to fall in love. Author-chan and the president already have potentials.
Anno
Oh looks like their club's going to need some saving before that can be handled though.
Anno
I can kind of understand the principal though. They're kind of running a little unchecked and being silly. Personally I think that's good for them but I can see why an old fogie like that principal would have issue with it.
Anno
Man that was really well done. That whole epiphany scene.
Yuu
You can never trust Okada.
okaa-san yaeh we're doing okaa-san now
okay lets start
月
is it safe now sorry
Anno
Did the episode run you over a bit? It got pretty intense for a bit there.
Yuu
I believe this is following the tradition on inane isekai.
Anno
It's got some aspects that are a little unique. And it's also got character designs by Pochi-Goya, who does some really cute girls.
Anno
Wow I didn't know the Japanese government had instutionalized isekai.
Yuu
haha what This is like the lamest entry into isekai ever.
Anno
Well we've seen about every isekai entry they can come up with so far. Might as well get it out of the way fast.
Yuu
Yeah they really did just unabashedly cut to the isekai part.
Anno
That's a whole lot of futsuu. What a poor lot he's drawn.
Yuu
Well I guess it's like soft isekai since it's still a game
Anno
Yeah but you get to take along your silly okaa-san with you!
Anno
Hah hah there's a bit of video game tongue-in-cheek commentary too.
Yuu
Yeah it's lampshading games pretty well.
Anno
She's such a kind lady.
Anno
Oh something got hurt all right. His pride.
Yuu
He's going to get overwhadowed so bad.
Anno
Yeah he's already sulking over it.
Anno
He is being pretty mean to his mom.
Yuu
Yeah he's being terrible!
Anno
Well you know what they say about the Terrible Teens.
Anno
>Kaa-san Oukoku
Wow what the hell.
Yuu
wow What an approach.
Anno
Oh Shirase's here too. I thought her introduction earlier was too silly for just a one-off character.
Anno
>When your mother tries to set you up with your party members
Yuu
Well it's a unique idea for isekai and shameless in its execution
Anno
Yeah, like I said, it has some unique elements to it. I've been kind of hoping it'll be a fun series; I like the character designer's work.
