Thread #957671

Hi hey hello Rika
Hope you had a nice America Day weekend

hello i am bang and i'm watching anime

Bokutachi no Remake
Genjitsu Shugi Yuusha no Oukoku Saikenki
Hamefura
Kageki Shoujo!!
Kanojo mo Kanojo
Kumo desu ga, Nani ka
Mahouka Koukou no Yuutousei
Scarlet Nexus
Shadows House
Tantei wa Mou, Shindeiru.
Tokyo Revengers
Vanitas no Carte

Ijiranaide, Nagatoro-san
^{Episode 9-12}

Lot of new stuff today
Also at least one thing is a double-episode release I think

Bokutachi no Remake (Double Episode) is either a timeslip or age regression series a la Re-Life, about a layabout adult who gets to revisit his college years I think, to try and set himself right

Genjitsu Shugi I think is an isekai about a guy who rather than go on adventures, preferred instead to take up the logistical duties of running a kingdom and live out his isekai life that way

Hamefura is Hamefura S2. 'nuff said
Kageki Shoujo!! is a series about girls in a drama club I think. But like, normal drama club, not weird like that one show about girls doing theatre productions from a couple seasons back

Mahou Koukou no Yuutousei is from the same series as ONII-SAMA's anime, but instead the main character is his sister, I think

Scarlet Nexus is an anime adaptation of the game that just came out recently. It's animated by Sunrise, so they might get a chance to sneak in classic Sunrise ridiculousness, but I don't know enough about Scarlet Nexus to say anything about this.

Tantei wa Mou, Shindeiru is an LN adaption that has something to with mystery. I've been looking forward to this one because I've heard a lot of praise about the LNs, but I don't know too much. It's also a Double Episode

Vanitas no Carte is a shounen and features vampires, and may or may not be kind of fujobait. But there's a lot of high-profile staff behind it, and a lot of hype in less-niche communities than 4chan

oh no
the new shows are here

well i have kumo24
is that what we're on?

just let me know what else to get

Oh there's also Kanojo mo Kanojo, which is a harem romcom from the author of Aho Girl
Which I don't think means anything to Bang but Rika probably remembers it
It'll probably be pretty good.

i saw an apology from the kumo people about the episode or something
i don't know thw whole story

okay

what bang shows do we have tonight
what new ones do you wanna watch

i have no idea
just feed em to me
but i can only be here for like 3 of em
i have to start being responsible about my bedtime
which mean i can probably only watch like 9 shows this season

Well you didn't watch Hamefura right
So we can do that by ourselves tonight

oh good luck

okay

kumo

do you have anything else

>>957683
>>957683
hamefura isn't on my list yet
let me see if the other bots have ti

Weird, it's been out since the 2nd
It should be available by now

tilde what shows are bang shows
bang needs to know

okay

kumo spider
PLAY
okay
lets start

spider time
>>957689
so just don't pick those
okay so we'll watch them but not tonight

The other problem is two of the offerings tonight are double-episodes
So to put one of them in would take up the two remaining slots we have with Bang
>>957688
Yeah but they're also the most likely to be GOOD

Okay fine lets watch Genjitsu Shugi and Kanojo mo Kanojo with Bang

I kinda wanted to watch Tantei tonight

wait
reborn again?

no, she's still evolved

oh i see
she's a genius

So she's basically unkillable as long as she doesn't get caught off guard by a school of magic pretty much all of maybe two people including her has access to

IT HAPPENED
IT HAPPENED

human body finally
I bet the rest of the episode will the the kids and we won't get to see

i hope not :(

Well they do have to go back to the future at some point
They were kind of in the middle of a battlefield there

yeah but that battlefield didn't have spider-chan on it
so it sucks

Oh yeah the Actual Mechtanks
The fuck is up with these elves

yup here we are back to the kids

I wonder if magic can restore lost teeth
Kumoko was able to use it to regenerate whole spider limbs

It probably can
nobody wants to be missing teeth

also anime magic
characters who get teeth knockedo out always get them back

Yeah but at least in this world there's a valid reason for them to get it back

Though I think that is a bit harder to heal

But he's right
He wasn't even trying kill him there, he was just gonna knock him out
He even said as much!

was that the npc?

oh that's right
lvl 10 taboo means you learn things about the world

This guy really doesn't get it
He's a scrub compared to literally anyone else involved

Here weeee goooo

Yeah, thought we'd return to Kumoko

WHOA
it's like from dark souls

yeah and the reveal of future kumoko

so she's also the white haired girl in the present

That's who I figured she was
Though she is also kind of Ariel
Since Ariel has become a blend of one of her parallel minds and the original Ariel

If Sophia is acutely aware it's Kumoko who saved her though, then that would explain why she was calling her Master in the present too

Man he really tanks this damage
He was present in the present too though, serving as a lieutenant of the demon armies
So I guess someone heals him

he'll be okay

Oh he just regens because vampire
That's useful

Here's everyone's favourite schemer, Potemas

It looks like she still can't work the mouth on the human part of the Arachne body
The fully humanoid version she had in the present was speaking though, so at some point she gets that working

She's still pretty new to interacting with other powerful creatures

Yeah, I'd been musing about it earlier in the series
She's strong, but at least in the past story arc, unnaccustomed to how to fight against actually competent creatures

She also hasn't fought against many creatures with humanoid

I'm sorry what.
What.

wow he's a robot

Why are the elves, or at least the elf leader, a TERMINATOR

Hah hah hah
The human head on her body is basically just a distraction

Also does this mean Potemas isn't actually dead
I'm pretty sure last we saw of him in the present, he was a decapitated head
But if he's only a terminator then is he really good and dead

oh no
Ariel is turning too far

Oh yes

>>957726
There's no turning too far in this case

I guess she still serves as a lieutenant under Ariel because it's easier to have her making all the decisions

now they're friends
nice

i wonder how many potimases there are

ariel is almost entirely a genki character now

I guess this is how they teamed u.

So the enemies of the reincarnated kids are actually her allies

I'm still not 100% sold on the elves being evil-evil
Like they're shady as fuck, and don't really seem to be good.
But I don't know if Ariel is correct that they're the big enemy in the grand scheme of things

until they give me a reason to believe otherwise, i'm 99% on the elves being evil
and like 90% on the humans being evil too
this seems like a world where everyone is pretty evil overall
except like commoners

There's a difference between being evil and being evil-evil
Like they're not in the right, and probably deserve ramifications for their actions
But I feel like all this fighting between Ariel and her team and the elves is just theatre

there's probably an admin who is evil-evil
potimas might be like a pawn of theirs or something

Yeah, I think an evil admin is using the elves

i do think potimas is evil-evil though
if the elves aren't, it's only because they aren't really decision makers
they're apparently all completely controlled by potimas

I will say my opinion on Potimas is at best, he's so drunk on the cool-aid of whatever mission he's been on that he can't imagine himself not being righteous
And at worst he's wholly on board with destroying the world in whatever way it is Ariel is trying to prevent

Would be nice if they can get around to making more of this
Though if they take as long from the announcement for season one to the actual season one to make a season two
I might as well just learn Japanese and read the LNs

okay next is

genjitsu
kanojo

Yeah, and then we can do Hamefura and Shadows or whatever else, in whatever order

genjitsu

okay
lets start

>>957746
i thought there was like 4
or 5

two of them involve opening up a shop i think

I don't think there's actually too many new isekai series running this season

I count three new ones, including this one

But there's also Hamefura, Slime Isekai, and 100-man Inochi which are all getting new seasons

that dark knight guy looked REALLY evil
also the twintail was cute

i count five but maybe there's something about them i don't know

oh this is one of those summoning isekai
not a reborn isekai

Very classic
Summoning Japanese people to fantasy worlds was isekai before isekai was cool

"oh shit it actually worked, this is crazy"
the words you really want to hear when summoned

Oh shit a bearman

oh shit lizardpeople
lizards are usually bros

He's a bit of a hard-ass
Not unreasonably, but man, he really doesn't give a shit about this king

wow these guys that summoned him kinda suck
they're all wimpy and they summoned him to sell him

how can they now just use their magic to make money
lazy bastards

Well they weren't certain it would work
So it must have been a lesser resort

oh it's a special rulke
rule

dang MC is blunt

That said they all seem really incompetent as governors though

wimpy king! wimpy king!

The whole lot of them are wusses, getting intimidated by a slightly haughty young guy

Kid's like
>The whole lot of them are easy marks I can just bluff them into letting me do all the work

on one hand the situation is ridiculous but on the other hand it makes sense given the iformation available
he really did choose the most advantageous words he could

He's helping them get a lot stronger

I think it's more of a long-term process

i like the red dragon duke

TIGER DUKE
TIGER DUKE
TIGER DUKE

SABER

This is a very classic high fantasy setting
Lots of fantastical races

oh shit
saber is his wife now

also now we know why the king is so incompetent
he has his hot queen cleaning his ears all the time
he probably never leaves his quarters

It feels like he and his new wife are not quite getting off to a romantic start

I think they're both forgetting she's engaged to him now
Which means if he's king, she's queen

her uniform really reminds me of isuzu from that one theme park show

He's accomplished a lot in one episode

Doki

hmmm
this merchant girl might be cuter than saberwife

yes yes, i see

It's probably a good call to not sell magical items under the purview of the kingdom out to merchants

wow a boat pulled by a giant sea serpent thing
that's dope

yugioh moment

I don't think she's going to get his reference

The way they use formal Japanese like "genjitsu" for "realistic" rather than a more contemporary "rearu" is interesting
I wonder if it's an intentional choice on the author's part, since even if the language we read/hear is Japanese, the fantasy world wouldn't have English loanwords in their lexicon

i thought this guy sounded familiar
it's subaru
and his new saberwife is rem

i hear genjitsu used a lot in songs

i imagine it's a connotation thing

well i don't expect amazing things, but the first episode was fun
i do enjoy me some isekai

yeah that was pretty nice

okay
kanojo
okay
lets start

this one's a romcom right
i didn't look into it
i saw the name and was sold
it looked like a romcom
>>957796
such as?

Yeah
Should be pretty silly
The previous works by this author have been great comedies
He's also written Touhou doujinshi about going around harrassing the various characters in lewd but non-sexual ways

>>957795
Well the aforementioned Aho Girl, about a girl who is so unbelievably stupid and the extremely dry and grumpy guy she's head over heels for

DOSURU

His girlfriend is very cute
i mean why do you ask what should i do
turn her down
you're already dating someone

i'm guessing he's brainless and hopeless
and he said yes

He's dumb but he's got passion

wow he's destroying her in the middle of class

>I confessed once a month to you since we were in first grade
This really contextualizes him saying they've been steady for like a month or two

their poor classmates
who have to live with this

I like this couple
if this series is about him trying to stray cause some thot confessedto him
I'm going to drop it

by the title i'm thinking he dates them both question mark?

and the OP is showing a blonde girl and a white hair girl

The white-haired girl we've seen so far
She seems like the girlfriend's best friend or something

She kinda goes a bit hard

I don't know if it's commendable to spend 50.000yen on the ingredients for a bento box

yeah if he dates them both im gonna be mad

If she really wants to get through to him she should go through his girlfriend

OH NO

OH NO

if red hair says yes

Wow he went straight to Saki

I mean I guess it's commendable he didn't try doing this behind her back.
Kind...of?

i would say that it's definitely better to attempt a non-monogamous reltaionship with consent from all parties involved
i'd still say it's quite a few steps on the moral staircase below just
you know
not

He's not exactly smart
Honest, but not smart
And persistent
But not smart

blue has no self-esteem
and mc has no capacity to say no

this is such a strange scene

He also has no capacity to hear no

She should dump him, right now

she must really really like him or something

i guess getting confessed to over a hundred times over a decade would do that

He did confess to her a bunch, yeah
It probably kind of messes with her brain
Plus, in like all aspects, he's exhaustingly honest
If she's his childhood friend she must know he's this way
So it's hard to not take him at face value
Even if the words are ridiculous

wait they're all gonna live together!?
nani!?!?!

I would dump immeidately
you can't even trust him not to do it once he's asked even if he accepts your no
he'll just do it behind your back

I guess this is striking a bit close to the nerve

i don't think this particular character is capable of doing anything behind someone's back

This relationship is going to be horrible for her
becuase she's going to be constantly competing with the other girl
who is kind of a pushover slut too
She was happy before but now she's locked in constant stress and competition

i have more experience than i'd like to remember with openly polyarmorous relationships though
i can kind of sympathize with a some of the decision making going on here
i'm expecting there to be a lot of mental gymnastics, awkward situations, and chaos though
which are the main reasons i watch romcoms probably

i'm down for the show
probably

>>957831
Realistically, sure
But I don't think that's the genre this series is going for
Any actual prompt for stress or serious competition will probably get handwaved aside

wow he just said it straight
up
UP
WOW HE JUST SAID IT
STRAIGHT UP

I don't even think, in all my poor social graces, that I could ever attain this level of autism

>She gives me weird feelings, even as a woman

oh damn
on one hand he's saying he'll absolve himself of needing sexual activity
and on the other he's saying they can't fuck unless he gets a threesome

If he wasn't such an idiot you'd think he was playing the game here
But no he's just an idiot

yeah i'm not a completely shameless person but tilde you at least know me enough to know i'm definitely watching this

There's nothing wrong with shamelessness
I watch what I want to as long as I like it and I have the time

I don't know if I want to watch this next week
I'll think about it

Do we have any other bang shows?

Hah hah, I thought it would be light enough, or at least lean into comedy, to not be a bother
I was vaguely familiar with the premise since I've seen a couple chapters and a bit of chatter
Sorry that it kind of set you off!

no more bang shows tonight because no more bang
it's sleepy time

okay
shadows house

night bang
okay
lets start

I think this should be the final episode of this

>>957847
Oh yeah sue me

arigatougozaimasu
oyasuminasai

Oh right Edward's big keikaku doori

Tiny shadow baby

They're kind of cute, the little shadow things
Reminds me of the sootballs from Spirited Away

Oh he screwed up
The servant dolls aren't supposed to talk

I wonder why the tiny Shirley is doing so much to help them out
Like the rest of the kid Shadows and their dolls have kind of built a friendship of sorts
But Shirley didn't have a personality back when they were all interacting

It's neat how the various pairings have different relationships with each other
Like Kate mentors Emilico and uses her as an emotional support
John and Shaun kind of butt heads with each other but in a constructive way
Patrick might be Ricky's master but Ricky is the one that is always telling Patrick how to act

Shadow on shadow violence

John definitely gets some pretty stylish moments
Although he's now the only one left in the clutches of these older Shadows

Kate's wings are kind of pretty though

Edward is MAD

Well you know these kinds of people
They pride themselves in being perfect chessmasters, setting up flawless keikaku
And then when their plans get foiled by some rascally kids, they lose all composure

Hah hah hah
I guess all the kids have been put through one of Edward's sadistic debut trials, like we saw earlier in the show
So none of them bear any kind thoughts or sympathies to him

Wow, things reversed quickly for Edward.

But I think the way that the shadows house operates probably is still very shady.

Also in the end, it's not this cadre of higher-level Shadows who calls the shots here
The final say, is the Lord Grandfather, looks like
Who probably doesn't care too much about disgraces like this, as long as he gets a fun show to watch

Edward probably has his thinking on backwards though
It's the "malcontents" that are likely who interest Lord Grandfather the most
And as much as he might hate the higher-level Shadows, they obviously have risen to be closest to Lord Grandfather for a good reason

Oh it's the remnants of the dead girl isn't it

Yeah, that's what I was saying >>957851 here
The one that died was Shirley
Her doll is Rum
The little lilac ribbon it had was very clearly the colour theme of Shirley

Unfortunately in the end this series was little more than an introduction and commercial for a source material I'll never look into further.
I liked the series but I don't see this ever being a complete anime.

What's stopping you!

It's probably not translated and even if it was there's other stuff I'd spend my time on.

It's actually fully translated, up to it's most recent chapter
Fan translations, of course, but you don't strike me as someone who'd really go out looking for the official provisions anyway

yeah
and I have a rule about reading incomplete series that are being fan translated
it's a road to heartbreak

okay
hamefura 2
ep 1

okay
lets start

Well if I see buzz about it being finished, I'll pass it on
I think the manga might be building up to some kind of climax, but I don't know if it's finale tier or just an arc climax.

Oh it's nice to see Bakarina's sloppy face again

By my understanding, the first season of this actually had a lot of anime-original content to it
They only covered a fairly slim number of the LN volumes

Bakarina is such a force of nature that everyone falls for her, regardless of gender or prior sexual preference

Oh yeah her harem is pretty big now

Well in building it for the time being, she averted mortal danger
Though having a harem composed of powerful magic users from some of the most noble families in the kingdom, does sound like high portents for new disasters

Keith is highly intimidated by Mary's menacing atmosphere
This lady is full of dangerous gay energy

Bakarina in the meanwhile is getting HORRIBLY THE WRONG IDEA

His voice doesn't really match his face
Not this one, or his actual one

With the immediate crisis of not being on a track to death averted, she's turned to more serious concerns, such as avoiding marriage into a royal family that would totally be a nightmare to go through as someone without proper nobility training

Aaaannnnd she's getting the wrong idea again
Though at least this time she's not worried about it resulting in her death

Oh
We knew there were four princes in the family
Geord and Alan have been regular characters so far, but I guess we finally meet the other two

Wow she's gotta play the part
the characters in this are all so cute
good show

They brought back angela to sing the OP again!
She hasn't done much anisong in recent years so it's always so fun to hear her again.

That was good as always
thanks for anime

Yup yup, thanks for anime
Good luck with the work week, Rika!
