That's kind of a big mission statement. Saying you're gonna find a way to turn people back to normal from berserk flaming monsters is probably beyond Shinra's skillset.
Anno
The whole gang's all here for the finale. What a fun-looking party.
Anno
Mata ne
Yuu
I'm not sure how to feel about that show in places it was mediocre and in places it was good
psycho pass 6
okay lets start!
月
ready
do you guys mind if i blogpost a bit while we watch
Anno
Saikou Path >>788489 I don't mind, so if you feel it'll bring some comfort, go ahead.
I need to take a moment to get back up to speed on what was happening here last episode hah hah.
There were those three figureheads to the religious organizations and one of them is the mastermind behind some terrorist bombings I think it was?
月
i haven't caught up so i can't answer that im playin detective tryin to fill in the gaps
it's a shame i can't find that info somewhere and just read what happened
Anno
Wikipedia usually has episode summaries for popular shows but they're pretty compact against each other so for someone like me who kinda just looks at words and has a hard time reading selectively I'd be cautious about spoiling myself for future episodes.
月
yeah that's literally the same reason i dont do that i see the words in a large block of text even if im trying not to look directly at it
Anno
This reminds me of the Breath of the Wild shrines.
Anno
>Bottom
Anno
Yeah I remember this religious group was the one that takes a lot of obvious inspiration from the crazy Scientology-style cults that got really popular in Japan towards the end of the 1900s.
Anno
There was also a Buddhist one and maybe one that's kind of a Christian faith one?
Yuu
Japan seems a bit fascinated with cults
Anno
They have a long history with them in the modern age. I don't remember how much you remember of Penguindrum but there was a subway gas bombing that happens in its pre-series worldbuilding that's core to the story arcs. Which was taken almost directly from a famous cult gas bombing in real life.
Anno
Also with a name like Heaven's Leap you really sound like you're getting into some crazy cult.
月
whoa
Anno
Whenever this character designer does guys with large-ish eyes they always end up looking kinda perma-stoned. Reborn was the same way.
Anno
>Making a religion out of the super autocratic AI system that imposes upon everyone a psychological judgement Yeah, sounds like a good idea.
Anno
This is a show that's best watched in sets of two. So far each story arc has been sets of two. Stopping on episode five for so long had us stuck in the middle of the story arc hah hah
Anno
I think the other Psycho-Pass seasons had pretty good music too but I've been really enjoying the music in this one.
月
it's pretty thematic and versatile
Anno
Yeah, and they use their soundtrack really well in the action scenes too. Makes for an enjoyable scene.
Anno
Using holograms they discovered ... a hologram!
Anno
>So he's the real Nisei Nise being fake is pretty ironic.
Anno
Geez dude no need to be a creeper.
Anno
>You'll be able to see Kei's face in a few days not if Kei gets his dumb ass DEAD
月
what are gorillas gonna do with diamonds
Anno
Even gorillas can learn the concept of wealth!
Yuu
It's gotten really violent.
Anno
Decomposing composers
Anno
A KA NE
Anno
Look at this loser of a mommy's boy.
Anno
She really seems to spend a lot of her time this series getting frustrated by bureaucracy.
Yuu
Imagine working for the SAD
Anno
Every day I already clock in my hours for the SAD.
Anno
Promises to the dead are pretty demanding, yeah.
Anno
Ah oh no
Anno
And now they're abducting his wife. A whole lot of bad's happening fast.
Anno
This band that does the ED is no EGOIST but it's still pretty good. Channels the same mood.
Yuu
Yeah, seems like they're going for the same thing as the other OPs
oh actually I think this is the group that did some of the tokyo ghoul OPs
Anno
Yeah, one from :re. They also did the ED from Yakusoku no Neverland.
Yuu
val love 11 okay ;ets start
月
okay
Anno
Ba Ru Ra Bu
Anno
Wow what a rude dad.
Anno
Uh okay.
Anno
Though for a guy that's all about studying and grades he really is RIPPED.
Anno
Ate her? I don't even know her!
Anno
The one that wears the cloak and dorky helmet has quite the body underneath.
Anno
KIMI NO SEI KIMI NO SEI KIMI NO SEI DA
Yuu
His harem is really big at this point
Anno
There's like nine or ten different sisters they really threw a lot at us right off the bat.
Anno
He finally gets to put all those SMARTS to good use. Counting eggs.
Anno
Come on dude you gotta do IT
Anno
Doki
Anno
... I mean I get why, but wow.
月
shoot i dozed off... sorry im really exhausted
Anno
Well I'd say you didn't miss much, but you're also not getting much here either.
Anno
I don't think the grumpy spear girl was my next expectation for getting the Super Lewd power-up.
月
do you want to wrap up with chihaya or do the last bokuben? it's thursday (actually friday)
id like to enjoy anime while i can yeah
Anno
We could probably do Chihaya if you need to rest but I bed Rika's plan was to do BokuBen yeah.
Yuu
I was planning to do bokuben!
Do you want to?
okay bokutachi 13 okay lets start
Anno
At least it should be nice and fluffy for the finale.
The Val x Love ED is the kind of one that always gets stuck in my head after hearing it. Annoyingly earworm-y anime EDs.
月
ready
Anno
Nariyuki please. At least Furuhashi is saving her own play.
Anno
It looks like there might be some new Winter 2020 shows coming in over the weekend. I'm seeing maybe three or four new shows plus Hero Academia.
Anno
He's still stuck carrying around Asumi's guitar case.
月
just straight biting into the cob of a corn on the cob girl what
Anno
Hah hah wow She kissed the costume thinking it was Sempai. Poor Furuhashi.
Anno
This whole school culture festival has been like a butterfly flapping its wings and causing hurricanes. Every action they do seems to spawn disruptive chaos.
Anno
Gosh how obliviously charming.
Anno
Wow.
月
cute mom and kids
Anno
Faasuto kissu
Anno
Man I always love watching culture festival episodes. The activity they get up to is constantly charming.
Anno
Oh there's the missing prince costume.
Anno
Aw that's really really cute. I can really get her feelings there.
Anno
Everyone just leaps straight into action, eh.
Anno
Oh no who was FIREWORK
月
hmmmmmmm
Anno
They're going all the way back to season one for this ED video roll. But there's still a lot of time after what would be a normal ED time in the episode too.
Yuu
That was a really early ED
Anno
Oh yeah he gets a second run at this university interview.
Anno
So he's gonna become a teacher himself, eh. Though it's kind of just a furthering of what he's already doing.
Anno
Oh, huh. I didn't expect them to jump forward. The manga's still ongoing and they're still all in highschool.
月
cute casual clothes
AnnoAnno
Oh wait I recognize that terminal now. I mean I guess most people fly out of east Japan out of Narita.
月
oh okay
Anno
Yeah that's kind of weird. This is a weird series to do a timeskip pseudoending on like that. Even kind of hinting that it was Uruka in the fireworks scene is pretty audacious for them.
