To keep things straightforward here's what we normally watch on Thursdays
Kyoukai Senki *Platinum End *Sakugan Scarlet Nexus Shiroi Suna no Aquatope
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
Engines all green!
Anno
drop platinum end
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
why
Anno
i just don't feel like i'd enjoy watching another episode more than reading more mushoku i was going to drop it last week but gave it another shot >>999780 just sakugan i think
Yuu
so what does that leave us for bang shows
Anno
oh my bad i said drop i meant dropping error
Yuu
okay
sakugan platinum end scarlet kyoukai shiroi
Yuu
sakugan okay lets start
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
I've been waiting for this!
I watched some reviews of the Big Tony model and decided not to get it. It doesn't look like a bad model but I really don't like the face on the model. Spending $60 on a model I'm not completely in love with just doesn't feel right to me. I'd rather drop it on an MG gundam or a Zoids. >>999787 It does!
Anno
now THIS is a show i don't think i'll be dropping
Anno
>>999785 Does the transforming gimmick at least work properly
Anno
gargalaba
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\

Anno
Gambling is not an investment!
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
Gagumba, please.
Anno
Man Gugumber is ripped though
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
piloting a work mech does that to you
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
or something
Anno
MO MATTA WHAT YOU SAY
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
NO MATTA WHAT I SAY
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
DANGER DANGER DANGER TOBIDASE
Anno

Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\

Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\

Anno
Equal opportunity doesn't equal equality!
Anno
Oh shit A NE SA N
Anno
uh oh UH OH
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
Zack!
Anno
canned bread i've heard japan has some good canned breads
Anno
this one is suppsed to be tasty
Anno
Phantom thieves!
Anno
That gold wasn't kept very securely
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
kirameku forehead
Yuu
crime spree
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
music so good
Anno
Memempu is really getting into the crime life
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
Hell yeah, crime for justice. That's the true way.
Anno
It's far too easy to get drunk on how that feels though Even Gagumber can see Yuri's getting a bit carried away here
Anno
i wonder if people will die this show isn't afraid of doing things like that
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
This red mech is pretty good. Has a good face.
Anno
You can't hack a human body! Oh Gagumber said something similar hah hah
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
GAR AGE
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
Oh, I've got a bad eel lmao wow
Anno
Zack pleaes Just say you want to stick around them
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
Geez, 2mil interest
Anno
party member get
Anno
He's got a whole posse now
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
Is this one or two cour?
Anno
MAL says 12 eps
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
What a shame
Yuu
that was pretty nice very colorful
platinum
thanks for anime bang okay oh wait okay lets start
Anno
Oh I thought Yuri was wearing a bikini top there But it's just a ... lot of bags?
Gagoomba and Zack had a few too and they all were looking kinda loopy Maybe it's a weird adults-only thing
Anno
oh yeah the source material is a novelk novel* maybe we'll get more than one season
Anno
thanks for anime bye byee
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
platend
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
Oh yeah, cute girl time.
Anno
>If she's got a knife, she doesn't need a White Arrow By that logic, does anyone really need the White Arrows?
Anno
Oh wow
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
chou yabai
Anno
Chou yabai
Yuu
wow but seems like she's gonna die
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
I like how it's not just a knife, but a bolo knife
Anno
Shoujo A more like Shoujo Gay
Anno
Huh yeah The only one that can really reliably magically kill someone in their little gang is the MC The rest have to play Red Arrow gambles or just use a normal weapon
Yuu
Lots of complex plotting going on
Anno
The reporter guy kinda looks like a Persona side character Like one of those older guys you get to chase a whole side plot with
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
He should just give his white arrow to someone who is willing to kill
Anno
Wow look how classy this fuckhead is, listening to Clair de Lune
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
publishing the face of a high school girl serial killer victim and describing the way she was killed graphically seems like something the japanese media would absolutely not do
Anno
It doesn't even sound like something most police agencies would sign off on The way a person was killed, especially the specific details, is useful to keep secret Since it's an easy way to trip up the perp
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
hahahahaha guns
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
hahahaha this guy just fucking pointing his guns at walls in an apartment building
>>999878 yeah, and usually they won't publish it the next day not for a child
Anno
No don't squirt
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
kyaa i'm squirting
Anno
It's a bird! It's a plane! It's a serial killer!
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
Sleeping while flying seems nice.
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
The media in this world is way more bold than even American media
Anno
Yeah I'd like to fly somewhere warm and just doze off in the middle of nowhere
Anno
Maybe it's the same world as Death Note and the world's had to endure a period of time where mass death was the norm So it's basically like the weather to them
Anno
Hah hah Rolling Thunder
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
ooh this guy got's a good heart
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
cyber hoodie time
Anno
Where as Mukaido is just Master Chief
Yuu
wow everyone has nice armor
Anno
The girls don't! Talk about bias
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
the armor looks so bad on this kid lol
Anno
>It's wrong to kill people I don't disagree but you're hoping Metropoliman shows up so you can kill him instead of Shoujo A You're not even opposed to killing people here
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
just shoot her and leave
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
pfft dumb bitch
Anno
Mukaido was pretty armored up though He can probably take the concussive impact of a bomb like that
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
yeah but the concussive force would probably knock him out and he'd fall to his death
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
if his brain wasn't mashed by the concussive force of his body being thrown by the explosion, that is
Yuu
wow random explosion
scarlet okay lets start
Anno
>>999909 He had his wings active and as Shoujo A demonstrated, they keep you floating even when you're unconscious Maybe he'll just coast through the air
>>999912 Rika that was a planted bomb nothing about it was random
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
the point of all the fighting and trouble on the earth the nexus you can't believe in what you hear >>999913 true true
Anno
In all likeliness he will crash to the ground but be at least temporarily okay
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
oh yeah they have the same mom or whatever
Anno
Sure must be embarassing when it turns out you have a half-sibling
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
so they both did literally have the same mom what the hell
Anno
Does that make Kasane a bit older than Yuito then? Assuming she's Yuito's biological mom
Anno
Everything in anime is always made up of cubes Or at least that's how things always fall apart
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
what if real life is made of cubes too and we just havent noticed... minecraft real?
Yuu
it is
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
gasp
Anno
Time travel! If they actually want to take advantage of the time travel why don't they go and save Kasane's sister
Anno
Ohhhh wait Right He saw this Kasane save his life as a kid I guess that plot point is finally coming 'round
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
yeah i guess we're nearing the end in the next few episodes
Anno
And then Yuito just fucking dies anyway
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
babby yuito
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
wow i want a kodomo paati
Anno
... You might be a bit too old for that Kirara
Yuu
you're never too old!
Anno
Wow Steins;Gate was right It really is easier to just send pure data back in time
Anno
>Will prevent him from suffering memory loss Good load of nothing that did him
Anno
Oh I guess he never got it as a kid And while Kasane is rescuing Yuito, their mom gets brain-stolen by Togetsu
Anno
??? Then why did he forget about most of this until his teenage years
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
i feel like something fishy is going on with that
Anno
This kind of creates a paradox though They were driven to go back in time to ask their mom about the Red Strings because she got abducted by Togetsu for her brain But if she doesn't get abducted by Togetsu she doesn't get incorporated into BABE and they wouldn't have met that digitized version of her earlier
Yuu
kyoukai okay lets start
Anno
Just a mom and her teenage children preparing a nice Sunday morning breakfast
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
Kyoukai!
Anno
Going from a potter to a mecha-piloting terrorist sure is a career change But given the circumstances, not unreasonable
Anno
How much power do highly complex AI like them even use Maybe this near-future world has better batteries too though
Anno
Hah hah hah When you've been out in the woods for who knows how long Fighting sweaty battles in mecha You probably get a bit of an odor
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
such is life
Anno
Battoru battoru This blonde-haired guy looks a bit soulless though Like he's given up his soul for the sake of fighting people in a mecha
Anno
>Gashin: Don't talk about travelling between other territories you'll blow our cover >Also Gashin: One day I will end this tyranny of oppression
Yuu
do boats really open on the side like that
Anno
Maybe in the future they do
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
bunyips!
Anno
Yeah Looks like the Oceania faction is just outright declaring war on the Asian faction
Anno
Amou you absolute goofball
Anno
It's really nothing but a game to this guy Maybe that's what happens when you don't actually pilot the mecha yourself The distance lets you detach emotionally
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
gai is so strong
Anno
He's not a sheep t What the fuck SAMU WHAT THE FUCK
The Asian faction commanding officers seem to be the worst of the lot Oceania doesn't seem much better though
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
KTKR
Yuu
ah here we gp go robot fighting
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
This one's got good legs but the thighs are a little too heavily armored for my tastes And it's another one of the designs that I feel have impractical or poorly designed heads But I guess they wanted to differentiate the heads from Gundam which can be hard with all the head design types they've used
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
A flight unit this early in the anime?!
Anno
Man Reiki is just absolutely running rampant all through these bots
Yuu
wow he's slicing these guys up that's why you don't build robots with weird thin waists and stuff they just getsliced up
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
Reiki is so strong
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
>>1000012 They probably skimp on armor since they're all unmanned drones
Anno
Plus the usual weapon of choice for the drones are guns A few use melee weapons but they've all had guns so far Flexible mobility probably suits guns better
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
angelo is the AI i'm guessing
Anno
A bit of a departure Gai and Kai are both Japanese-y names after all
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
Yeah, I'd expect the AI of a japanese nationalist paramilitary org to use AI with japanese names Maybe Gai and Kai were able to choose their own names since they're sentient though
Anno
The North American faction still seems like the one most likely to be "good" guys The Asian COs are almost comically villainous and there's some shifty people in the Oceania faction Although really it doesn't matter how nice or mean any of them are they're still villains as long as they're continuing this forceful occupation of Japan
Yuu
Flying so early really is crazy i wonder when the mooks are going ot start flying
mooks start flying not too long after hte protaognists do
okay shiroi
okay lets start
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
Yeah, flight units are usually part of the escalation of force I'm surprised to see them so early
Anno
Well pretty much every other robot is an unmanned drone So it's probably easier and safer to have them up in the air than a piloted mecha
Anno
Oh it's the girl she got replaced with in her previous aidoru unit Moving into showbusiness, even something kind of unglamourous like animal documentaries, is probably an improvement in work conditions over the idol industry
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
green nails
Anno
Is that an adjacent power to the Red Strings
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
dont they just want her bc shes a retired idol
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
what a weird thing to say to a penguin
Anno
She's probably projecting on it a little bit
Anno
Kukuru's wife is an ex-idol she doesn't need to go peeping to see one
Anno
Maybe she'd be more responsive to you if you didn't only just call her Plankton
Anno
Hah hah hah Poor Kyouya The burden of being handsome
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
Yeah, she was definitely projecting.
Anno
Kyouya here living his best life
Anno
>Are you giving up your career as an idol? Fuuka hasn't even considered being an idol since starting working full-time at Tingarl Ruka is a bit behind the times
Anno
She looks cute in the attendant uniform Kind of like a kid
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
lmao i love this man
Anno
He just likes his sealife
Anno
Kyouya please
Anno
I wonder where "anke" for survey/questionaire comes from It's spelled with Katakana so it's likely a loanword
Yuu
penguin episode!
Anno
Pft
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
kyui kyui
Anno
Nice save, manager-san
Anno
The penguins are probably a bit unnerved by all these strange human beans in their enclosure
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
Shiratama is cute.
Anno
Penguins are very surface-level cute animals So much about the rest of them is nightmare-tier though
Yuu
sad penguin music im sure it will go though
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
how touching i'm sure this is very meaningful for ruka
Anno
In the end Fuuka gave her the little extra push she needed though But that's fine Some times you need to rely on those close to you for motivation
Kirara 🍄 大医 /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
That felt likea super sudden ending
Anno
Yeah I was thinking that too It was a lovely episode all the same Just kind of a "wow we don't even have another three seconds to spare here at the end" moment, hah hah
Yuu
that was nice thanks for anime
Anno
Yeah, Thursday has some fun shows Thanks for anime! Enjoy your weekend, Rika
