Sayonara Watashi no Cramer
Tensura Nikki - Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken
Tokyo Revengers

Thankfully only two things air for Tuesday
The weekends are so heavily loaded this season

are we on Joran 3 already?
damn

for some reason i feel like Hige is the one i'm most excited about

any recommendations for tonight?

if you wanna pick a couple i don't watch, i don't mind going to sleep after 2-3 shows
i'm a sleepy bang

What is sleep

Shows we can absolutely watch with Bang are
Hige wo Soru
Joran
Koi to Yobu

Shows we absolutely don't need Bang for are
Back Arrow
Hero Academia
Fruits Basket
Megalo
Slime SoL

necessary remuneration for bang in order to make big moneys

that leaves the shows i'd be down to watch even though i // that are 1st eps
so
Bishounen
Blue Reflection Ray
Nagatoro
Tokyo Revengers

i won't be upset if you guys ever watch bishounen without me though
i'm not decided yet but those pants are hideous

If Rika's fine with it we can do the three shows we definitely watch with you then do some of the things we don't need you for
So you can get your sleep and we can get in some of the things we like that you're not interested in

Also you should watch the first episode of Fumetsu no Anata e before episode two airs next week
It was a good episode

Fumetsu was good
I teared up a little bit once we finished

okay

well
let's do

tokyo revengers
nagataro
blue reflection
bishounen? if bang feels like it

then

nomad / tensai slime

>>937177
>>937178
i'll watch fumetsu for sure
probably tomorrow

>>937180
Would be a good chance if you've got the time to also check out Full Dive and see if that's something you'd want to watch too

yeah i was about to watch that actually, but then anime time

OKAY

oh caps
tokyo revengers
okay
lets start

Episode two should air for tomorrow so it's a good opportunity to see if you'd want to stick around

>>937190
Yeah no kidding

OH GOD I MISCL
oh ok it's a safe image
orange

i should really seperate the safe images from the not safe ones
but life is more exciting this way

he appears to be living his best life

He's certainly living a kind of life

Even kids are picking on him

Reminds me of the start of Yojou Senki

"who couldn't keep his hands off his dick"

He had a much different image in middle school
Full on delinquent tropes

Mid-00s Tokyo was probably a really fun time to be a kid
I'm envious

Oh huh, yeah, that was a sly little detail they slipped into the news programme earlier in the episode
His crush died because of escalating tensions in this gang he just encountered
So there's totally a butterfly effect that might happen if he starts messing with the gang instead of just being their errand boy

time for people to get glassed!

dang the music that kicked in was intense

Small world
I wonder if he'll clean up his visual appearance at all or if he'll stick to the delinquent look

i don't like
this is
oh god
this is gonna come back to him

Geez guy do you really need to drop a bombshell like this on a kid
He doesn't need to know when he's gonna die!

wait
what the hell

The boy also

Oh neat he'll be jumping back and forth between the past and present I guess
That 'll be cool

whoa this went from kinda weird to kinda whack to fuckin mind blast in the span of like a minute and a half

I like stuff that's surprising.

I like time leap plots and ones that let the protagonist see the effects of the small actions they make have ramifications are super interesting
If he's constantly flipping between the past and the present that'll be fun

yeah i liked that surprise for sure

okay
nagotoro
okay
lets start

normally this folder is so empty and clean
this season is too crazy

devil girl
>>937234
do you just like
search for stuff
is all your anime in the same folder
as your other downloads?

My Downloads folder is an absolute unit
I've still got stuff in there from like five years back
Once I've got all my computer stuff together again I'll have my external SSD
And I'll be able to make a choice of what I want to archive and what I want to delete.

>>937233
Yeah it's all in my Downloads folder
But honestly it's like 90% anime anyway
I don't download a whole lot of stuff that's not anime, or doesn't go into a different location like Steam games.

>Ukeru wa

CRUNCH

もぐもぐ

i already hate this show

Yeah don't diss Two Piece

TARGET ACQUIRED

Is she just gonna fucking deck him

She's being a bit mean about it, but she's making a good point

look at this sadist apologizer trying to justify her

Nothing wrong with a little bit of friendly sadism

there's the irony that we know what happens later thanks to /a/
but at the moment this is just mental abuse
i can't help but be reminded of that one show
Wolf Girl and Black Prince

KA BE DO N

It's surprising this has taken so long to get an anime
it's such a popular series

>Nagatoro
>Trying to be sexy

>>937254
It has a bit of weird roots
The mangaka started off drawing some pretty intense abuse doujinshi before moving on to ambiguously lewd online illustrations/short manga using Nagatoro
The actual serialized manga is actually fairly recent

I don't really like the squint smirk expression she's got
Maybe it looks better in the manga, but it just looks like she's an Igor or something when she's got it on

this is painful to watch

Well, this is the author's fetish.

clearly
too clearly

Honestly the author goes both ways
When I said they did pretty intense abuse doujinshi
The target of that abuse was actually more Nagatoro-esque characters

things i'd rather not know

But knowledge is half the battle!

Oh no he's a hard-M

well i can't say it was any different than i expected
but i can definitely say i'm disappointed about that

This show sure is transparent.

yeah i was giving it a chance in hopes that there was maybe some nuance or something
but i feel like the people on /a/ are the exact audience for this show
which i usually don't feel is the case for most shows
but it's particularly worrying in this case that it is

i'm glad i tried it though, so now i don't have to make assumptions

I think the matter of its audience is a bit more complex than that
But the author definitely has something they wanted to draw and are probably quite content with their decision.

So then Blue Reflection?

blue reflection
okay
lets start

me in 30 mins

oj
>>937274
prove it
yeah i know
you cna't
so shut up

You're not going to be a doggirl in thirty minutes

im going in pretty blind here

Same really
I think it's a JRPG by GUST
But that's about all I know

Of note, the character designs are done by Kishida Mel, who's most of note here for having done the character designs for the Atelier Rorona trilogy of games

unfortunately
i don't know that the studio is doing that artist justice

I'm the other way
I think they're actually pretty aptly capturing the aesthetic he uses
The look of the eyes, the use of blush tones, hairstyles; they're all pretty in-line with what he draws
Even the long-limbs is accurate

i think outside of one or two shots, they just aren't particularly nice looking
from a purely technicaly standpoint
this is a pretty low-budget animation

And this is why you shouldn't pick random things up off the ground

what the

Don't you hate it when you get attacked by lesbian stalkers

why as a lesbian myself,

you joke but only because you don't know

that was to >>937283

I can definitely joke about things that wouldn't be funny in a realistic scenario

its ok my response was also technically a joke
only in that it was intended to display humor
but technically not a joke at the same time

sweatfrog

her clothes got really cool

Mel's a big /fa/ guy

Oh now they're all tumbling

Very mahou shoujo-poi

that one girl had a red ring
does that mean she's an evil mahou shoujo

this show is not exactly straightforward with its storytelling
so i still have almost no clue what happened in that episode

pure curiosity will keep me going into the next episode

There's a lot of hella gay undertones to this too

yeah, almost too many

i don't dislike it
but i don't know if it'll make the cut
bang is a busy boy these days

No such thing

tokyo revengers seems really cool
i'm definitely gonna keep up with that one

i'll give blue reflection another episode

i would have to have some kind of immense cognitive dissonance to want to watch more nagatoro though
it reminds me of Wolf Girl and Black Prince because it's just not what i consider to be healthy behavior
there's way too much hitting too close to abuses that are a little too relevant to my life

Yeah I was hoping that would be fun, and it hit my expectations

Nagatoro hit my expectations too, but that's fine in my book
It doesn't bother me in the way it bothers you

Blue Reflection was kind of weak but that's kind of because they were being all ambiguous about things.
It could've benefited from moving faster or being more straightforward about its details

thanks for anime!
next week (or the week after?) i'll be out of town for a few days
i'll of course let you guys know
it's for work
but i might have a laptop, we'll see

Night Bang
Hopefully Rika wakes up before too long

sorry
very sleepy tonight

let's do nomad
okay
lets start

Haven't been sleeping well recently?

>>937305
not the past two nights, no

It's a bit difficult for me to understand how you put up with it
Unless it's a case of only really seeing the bad parts and there's enough good there

Joe sure keeps getting it rough
Now his bike's gotten jacked

Oh that awesome bit of music from the first episode is the OP track
That's great
I really liked this piece

He keeps on running into that guitarist boxer with the dreadlocks
That was him talking to the lady while Joe was feverish in bed

Mi casa es Tsukasa

I hope he helps Joe heal.
And that nothing bad happens.
This show needs some serious healing.

Healing is a slow process
And I think even as he heals we'll be hit with more hurt as the show goes on
We don't even know the reason he's all like this right now after all

This brat is just gonna keep making trouble though, eh
How many mistakes is he gonna make before it finally comes 'round to bite him

Wonder when the last time Joe got hugged was

His hallucinations are probably right though
Joe's not in the condition he was before
Going into the ring without gear is probably lethal

Kind of a turning point there though
Joe's no longer hiding from the hallucinations
And the old man is missing both his eyes like it was at the end of the first season

eah
I want to see joe get better

okay
tensei slime sol
oaky
lets start

Realistically while he might be able to turn his mental health around, he probably wouldn't ever get physically better without physical therapy in a medical situation
The kinds of injuries you suffer from years of boxing don't just disappear because you fix your outlook on life

>>937324
Ready when you are

>>937325
I think Joe's glory days as a boxer are past.
I wonder if things will end with him being the coach for this new guy.

The new guy's older than he is!
I think once this first plot arc is wrapped Joe will return to the ring

Rimuru's not really good at being bored
Some people just can't keep themselves occupied!

The character design for this series makes the old oni's facial hair much more pronounced
In the main series it's basically all whiskers, but here it's enough to actually have colour and shape

The orc is such a nice character.
I like the 180 he's done.

A plotless SoL is a good chance to show off the characters' personalities too
For the first chunk of Slime they spent a lot of time roping various species and people into Rimuru's nation, they didn't spend a lot of time fleshing them out, aside from a few exceptions

Gobta continues to be a fantastic character too

Wouldn't be an isekai without the Japanese character farming soybeans
Soybeans are an extremely versatile crop to grow though
They make so many staples of the Japanese food world

farming is comfy

Those don't sound like comfy sounds!

But yeah farming is nice to watch
I don't really want to do it myself, at least not more than like a small personal scale
But I like watching it and playing at it

Did he just plant seeds with throwing daggers

I think he was just mimicking the planting with kunai
No actual planting involved

More orcervice

He's got a straw hat on, but he also has his horns sticking right through it
It must be pretty annoying for him to put it on

Yeah neglecting to invite a dryad to help with doing farmwork feels like a big oversight

Sasuga Gobta

that was nice
thanks for anime
I'm going to get a good bit of sleep tonight so I'll be more talkative tomorrow

Yeah, thanks
Yeah get your rest!
Have a nice night Rika
