It seems like no Vinland again this week.
Whether it's because of delays or other reasons they've really had a lot of breaks in its production.
But at the same time the production's been consistently good so if they need the time to keep the level of polish up, they should take it.

Vin;and is what I want to watch most as well

psycho pass 2
sherlock
houkago
watashi nouryoku

same ive been looking forward to it

psycho pass ep 2
okay

lets start

I really liked what they set up in episode one.
It seems that at least for the start of the third season they're stepping away from all the stuff concerning Sybil and doing more police procedural/detective work.

ready

This new little guy MC is really reminscent of the character designer's MC from her Shounen Jump series, Kateikyou Hitman Reborn.
Oh there's no I in the name I guess I couldn't quite remember it correct.

Seems to always be the case in psycho pass that I'm left wondering when old characters will appear.

This is a cute way to describe the '08 Housing Crisis.

Well they've already been teasing us with them.
So unless they plan to just toy with nostalgia we should see the pay off eventually.

whats the best anime this season hands down

Depends on what you like I'd say.
There's a variety of pretty good stuff in each genre.

Vinland saga!

HAET GAIJIN

Oh well that's a little bit morbid.

This episode has been a great source for good OST tracks.
I've been really digging all these action tunes.

Kougami!

Yeah that was an earlier pay-off than I was expecting.
I guess they'll intertwine the stuff from previous seasons slowly but consistently in.

i had to take care of something but im here now!
gomen

snow sure is a cold thing

i dunno what he expected

I got a bit caught up myself too hah hah.
I've been following the episode though.
The short MC's ability to fully step into another person's mental being is pretty cool, if totally implausible.

The thing they did earlier though, about giving the blonde woman a Japanese name when she fully went through the immigration system though, reminds me.
That's actually a kind of thing you have to do even in Japan these days if you want to become a full citizen.
Not that they really let a lot of gaijins become full citizens anyway though.
But you'd need a formal "Japanese" name if you wanted to be a full Japanese citizen.

id pretty much have to become a japanese citizen to play in Mleague
it's really, really hard for gaijins

she's cute

Yeah.
The make-up she's got for her stage acts is a bit much for me but she's got some good style here.

I'm glad we got to see kougami

I'm a bit sore we're not getting EGOIST EDs for this season though.
I wonder if that's still a project supercell is doing.

on a completely unrelated note, i wish we had more shows with YUKI openings

>>769708
Did you have to go shovel your walk?
Snow is really awful once there's a lot of it around.

sherlock
okay
lets start!

ready
>>769728
no but i have to go outside ot // to use my phone or else i get no signal

>>769727
The last one I recall was 3-gatsu, yeah.

Oh we've got the onee-san giving the intro speech this time

What a faux ikemen.

she's so cool

Mary Morstan in the original Sherlock stories eventually marries John Watson.
I guess they played with that with how he got seduced by her feminine wiles in episode two but I wonder if they'll stay particularly close to that in this series.
It kind of plays fast and loose with the original elements of the Sherlock Holmes stories already.

i don't think he'd even break a bone falling that high

Well if he landed feet or legs first the weight of the rest of his body bearing down on that might break something.

>making 4million yen in two weeks
i need that kind of work...

Even if it involves working with the seedy underbelly of Tokyo?

yeah id probably be really good at that stuff

Man you have to be a particular brand of idiot to walk around with two million yen so carefree.

This Sherlock's habit of talking to himself is great.
He's a fun, eclectic character.

She's such a good onee-san.
Working all these dumb jobs for the sake of her imouto.

yeah she's so cool

RA KU GO

Who ever heard of a wandering sumo vigilante.

The little riddles at the end of each Rakugo performance are great too.
They can be kind of poignant at times.

Luuuucyyyyy

Hah hah hah
I guess there are worse things in life than working in a host club.
Not many though.
Working a host club can be a pretty soul-draining job.

i think it would be pretty fun
of course, they dont really take gaijins too much either

houkago!
okay
lets start

okay ready

GE I MU

>>769761
I watched a documentary on host clubs for a class of mine last year and it really painted it a dour experience.
There's a big alcoholic party culture involved there and it's not uncommon for hosts to be downing several bottles of liquor in a single night.
Plus they're basically constantly seducing women but always having to stop short of it being an actual relationship. Their job depends on it.
Kind of like how aidoru have to be attractive and, well, idols, for their fanbase, hosts live in a similar environment of never actually being able to reach over that limit of building a close personal relationship.
The loneliness of that, contrasted with the need to be these charming individuals for their job is what creates the intensely draining experience of being a host.
Or at least that's how the documentary went.

Interrupting myself to say this is some pretty interesting commentary on video games versus board games in Japan.

Oh if it's an original game that'll be interesting.
So far it's just been cameos of real life games.

He's being a bit of a bully to this Japanese highschool girl he just met.

Though I do agree with his sentiment about designers wanting people to play their creations.

he makes good points though
you can't finish stuff completely in isolation

Yeah, I mean, I agree.
But he doesn't have to be such a dick about it.

>I want you to try my aliigator

Her earrings are so cute
I lover
er
I love her design

You lover the clover?

Though I guess they aren't really clover-y this time around.

She's got this pretty well-thought out at least.
There's a few intricacies but most of the stuff is simple or clearly defined too.

SHEDLER
CATAN

ideally they should have been play testing every step of the way so the game develops more organically

Yeah, but Midori has a bit of an independent streak.
She needs to get over that before she master the process.

Hm, I guess that was supposed to demonstrate the "whoever picks the largest income doesn't get to go shopping" rule.
And imply that it's kind of hard to remember? It felt pretty straightforward to me.

Oh here comes the REJECT ALL SUGGESTIONS

You've got to be careful what you wish for.
If you want direct honesty you've got to be ready for direct honesty!

this is a good demonstration of this concept
im glad they're paying heed to it

I was worried she'd take more negatively to the criticism but she embraced it pretty well.
Nothing is ever created in a vacuum.

A little girl like this shouldn't be wandering into a bar!
Even if it's a board game bar!

busy night, yuu?

Ah, sorry
Yeah
My attention spam is back though

Watashi!

okay
lets start

There's only one show left tonight though!

ready

Mile makes some really great doofus faces.

Well this exposition is a bit ... well, on the nose, but it seems like the author has put a bit of thought into the worldbuilding of this series.

aww

WA HO WA HA

Those deer are fucking SPOILED in real life.
They know they can do anything and people will still give them snacks.

This reminds me a bit of endro.


>>769806
They're just kinda stupid

Yeah, I get the Endro vibes too.
A bit less of a parody but Endro was also a straight fantasy.

>I get the feeling if you give this as a gift the recipient won't be very happy
Those kinds of tourist-y trinkets really are best bought for oneself and not for other people.

This series seems to sometimes be unsure of if it wants to be a happy-silly-isekai adventure or touch on some more serious tones.
It creates a bit of tonal whiplash at times.

Lots of bandits in this world.

It makes for some easy villains for your story but after a while you gotta start asking WHY exactly there are so many of them.
Large numbers of the population don't turn to banditry just because they want to.
There's got to be some underlying reason for why!

Aaaand here's our reason why.
Good to see this author is thinking these things through.
It makes me happy to see that happen.

That makes sense.
These bandits are going to have a bad time though.

Well anyone that makes an enemy of Mile and her friends are in for a bad time.

hahaha what

When you're as powerful as Mile is you've got to come up with creative ways to use your magic or else everything gets boring.

Ah I guess this series is too morally-sound to have her actually kill someone again.

Though it's also nice to see they didn't kill off the old man.
Instead slaughtering all these other merchants we had no familiarity with.

Maybe the old man is the mastermind.

He's secretly some veteran master spy from another kingdom that's living as a sleeper agent in this city, using his cover as a merchant to travel around the country disrupting things as he moves.

okay thanks for anime
see yall next time

okay then
thanks for anime!

Okey dokes.
We could have maybe fit in a sixth but it's probably best to take it easy.

See you tomorrow.

you mean fifth

Yeah.
My brain was already counting Psycho-Pass as two hah hah
Anime is always about timeslots to me.

>>769699
o

>>769699
i already read the mango and i said this season tho

>>769692
if 0080 isn't enough indication i love things that are painfully realistic and deal with heavy fucking problems
failing that anything super weird and out there is cool
