Brand New Animal Ahiru no Sora Black Clover Deca-Dence Gibiate Houkago Teibou Nisshi Koi to Producer - Did you know that LOVE backwards is EVOL To aru Kagaku no Railgun Episode 17-18
I don't really like when anime does the thing where character is seemingly seriously injured and then is fine in the first 5 seconds in the next episode.
Anno
It is a bit cheap. From a narrative sense there's probably easy ways to hang a cliffhanger that don't involve a trick like that.
Anno
So the creepy priest guy was a snake type beastman. I guess that's a bit expected. He was a snake oil salesman, a snake of a man, the snake tempting Eve (Nazuna)
Did she just do gorilla arm or was that stylistic?
also he's really creepy
Anno
Well it's probably supposed to be gorilla arms. Definitely more stylistic than Michiru since you won't really ever find a pink gorilla.
Anno
There's a lot of Imaishi/traditional GAINAX vibes in this episode. From the way things cut and some of the characters are animated.
Anno
It's a bit rushed but this development is at least kinda grounded in the stuff the show's told us so far. The only thing that's kinda goofy is the CEO guy was a secret beastman all along.
At least even when going kind of fast Trigger's pretty good at delivering an emphatic finale.
Anno
With shows like this which are developed for Netflix I wonder if there's really a need to be constrained to the traditional twelve/thirteen-episode limit. A lot of shows could benefit from maybe having another two or so episodes so things don't get compacted.
I had a feeling she'd not turn back. She should at least get to where she can switch like others.
Anno
Yeah, she managed it once earlier in the show. But I guess as an accidentally-created beastman she doesn't necessarily have the psychological habits a natural one have from birth.
Anno
That was a fun show. Very Trigger/10 I wonder if they've got anything else up this year or next.
They're doing a Cyberpunk game tie-in anime series but I think that's not out until 2022.
It seems to happen a lot. Especially combined with class bullying. This series has a lot of class bullying too.
Also this prissy brat kinda looks like another big magic bully from earlier in the series. That little brother of the portal magic guy.
Anno
Yeah water isn't really a great offensive magic when you just use it like a cannon. If he had the creativity to use it with finesse it would be good though. Like trap someone in water so they can't breathe.
Anno
For all the touting of his dad this peasant boy is doing, he's not doing a very good job of making the VERY OBVIOUS visual similarity between father and son.
Anno
This kid looks way older than twelve-years honestly. But I guess being a peasant worker probably ages you early.
I think everyone in this show looks older than they are
Anno
Doesn't help we don't really get ages on most people. Like how old are most of the Black Bulls anyway? I think we might've gotten ages for Asta and Yuno early in on the series but they don't really talk ages ever.
Anno
Honestly if someone drops something on the ground, and you see them drop it, and then you go and pick it up and take it home, I don't really know how different that is from thievery.
>>866512 I think the main crew is teenagers and yami is in his 20s
Anno
Yeah but a bunch of them are depicted drinking. That's generally a no-no for youth on television in Japan. Granted not all of them, but at the least the red-haired girl, the portal guy, and maybe the goth mime, I think have been shown drinking.
Anno
Huh, well speak of the devil. We just got a proper age for this guy hah hah.
Anno
If the red-haired witch is the filler next episode. I think that just leaves the siscon and the slow-talking guy that can't leave the base. Ah wait no there's also the fire guy and the electric guy, they're always buddy-buddy so they'll probably get an episode for themselves. Oh and the girl that shapeshifts.
Anno
I really hope we're not going through all of them, but I'm not expectant.
oh, is bang around? We should do ahiru or something else if he isn;t here
Anno
I guess that would let us two-for-one Bang shows tomorrow, since Yahari should be out. But man I really want to see what happens now that Bossu is dead as dust. I'm pretty convinced he's gone for good.
Good thing Ahiru was one of the shows I had time to get
Man I'm really looking forward to being back in the city tomorrow and not having to ration my downloads or spend like three hours getting four shows.
Anno
I wonder how often teams do strategy like intentionally missing free-shots. I guess if it pays off you can turn the one point (?) of a free-shot into a standard basket's two points.
Their team has some real good coordination by now. The players kinda vary in skill level but they do a good job of getting the ball around to their people who can sink hoops.
The MC team is definitely really goofy. For a serious basketball team like this one they're playing against it's probably a total cultural confusion
Anno
Playing against the MC team to figure out how to best use your shorter players is a bit of a smart idea though. Since the MC team plays a lot of strategy around the MC who's a total shrimp.
Anno
Ah well I guess they're gonna lose this game too. Sounds like she's gonna keep their tall glass cannon in the game too long and he's gonna collapse.
I think there was supposed to be a condition for this game that only if they win do they get to keep their basketball team together. But it's an overwhelmingly better team and Nao just gave some pretty heavy indication they're gonna lose pretty badly. So I guess it's gonna be a "fail the condition but win enough hearts to keep going" situation.
Ah well at the least there are the kind of fish she wanted to catch in the area But yeah quickly running into problems. I wonder why the bait they were using last time worked way better.
Anno
Oh it wasn't the bait it was hooksize. Among other things but I feel like if your catch can't get the hook in its mouth you're kinda screwed from the get-go.
Anno
>I guess I wasn't thinking about anything when i was fishing Isn't this the allure of fishing for a lot of people though. Though well I guess those people are usually the types that don't care too much if they catch something or not.
Anno
This "Next..." at the end of the episode doesn't really indicate ... anything.
