Seraph of the End Episode 19: Crowley is so scary. He's insanely powerful and it seems like nothing ever fazes him.
Spoiler:
Seraph of the End Episode 20: The scene between Guren and Yu when he was younger is so sweet. It just makes what happens between the two of them at the end of the arc more crazy and sad.
Spoiler:
Finished my re-watch of Seraph of the End. I checked and saw how the ending in the anime matched up vs the manga. There are some differences between the two.
They didn't mention some things like the armbands the vampires use to keep from burning in sunlight though, I wonder what other differences there are that I'll find once I'm caught up on the manga. I'm hoping for a third season too.
And I have to know, what happened in Guren's past between him and Mahiru, and how is it connected to how the world ended? I'll find out in the novel I guess. I know there's a manga adaptation for it, but it's not finished yet. Then there's about the one about Mika that I'll have to read.
That's another thing, I grew really attached Mikazuki while watching Gundam IBO, and Mika is his nickname too. I didn't even think about Mikaela while I was watching it. But now, I'll think of both of them when the nickname comes up.
If you like supernatural, vampire, mystery, or shonen series, take a look at the anime, or the read the manga if you want. When I catch up on everything, I'll post in the Seraph of the End thread on here. I wonder if I'll like how the story is now after so long.
I did say I would watch Durarara though, maybe I'll do that next.

The Act of dozing off in the afternoon is a luxury indeed.
Coffee would be nice, though.

Reading the manga Mushihime. The first chapter had me hooked and 7 chapters later it's getting better and better.

Two others are the manhuas BABY and Oldman. Short, but sweet.
I finished watching Little Witch Academia. A fun Trigger show, especially with the over-the-top finale.
I really enjoyed all the characters!
Shiny Chariot is best though~

I started watching Gundam Unicorn and that first movie has some weird character dissonance. Marida won't kill people when she's looking for Zabi, leaving a whole work crew alive, but the minute she gets into a fight with her Mobile Suit she destroys her opponent when he's down and out and causes a nuclear explosion and explosive decompression of the colony. If it was the MC or some other new pilot who didn't know their capabilities yet I'd forgive it, but she was shown for the hour previous to be incredibly precise with her weapons and as a veteran pilot should know what happens when you set of a nuclear reactor next to a space station wall.

I'm on chapter 59 and god, I never would have expected any of this or made it up. All the changes in sides and the revelations. It's overwhelming. 15 more to go...Originally Posted by Laserman

Oh fuck while i knew shirogane was the one who stole the hearts as arsene i didn‘t connect it in my brain that it‘s basically a persona 5 reference.
Still excited for whatever comes next.
Also come on ishigami, stop being off when you‘re dealing with your crush.

She was trying to avoid hitting civilians, but, at some point she got frustrated, went 'screw it' because the enemy mobile suits wouldn't back off (even when they were down), then she and her funnels lashed out. It didn't seem like she meant for that to happen, it just did. Something something harsh realities of war something something.
In the novel she takes a moment to assess her actions after it happens. She knows she fucked up and regrets it.

I figured it would be something like that. It just seems like something more in line for a hot headed ace pliot, rather than the relatively cold Ple clones. At least without the normal "batshit crazy" stage most artificial newtypes hit.

I finished watching Tiger & Bunny the Movie: The Rising. It was as great as I thought it was going to be. It was nice seeing everyone again. Fire Emblem got a lot of screen time and it was nice finally seeing his past. He overcame a lot to become he is and he's proud of who he is. The villain at the end was a twist I should have seen coming considering who his voice actor is. Golden Ryan was a fun guy, it would have been fun having him around. But I'm glad that Kotetsu didn't quit being a hero and that he and Barnaby are working together again. Now to wait for the next part of the project to come out.

He is indeed great
I'm definitely going to check out the prequel and the manga

Personal skill
Picked up the manga of Saihate no Paladin (Faraway Paladin/Paladin of the End) and I immediately had to skip to the light novel. Not only is the manga's artstyle great, but the story too is a diamond in the rough among isekai works, with none of the most common cliches that seem to plague the genre of late. The light novel is also even more beautifully illustrated, courtesy of Kususaga Rin (whom you might recognise as the character artist for Rama and Atalante in F/GO). I'm still only halfway through the existing translated volumes, but I have very high hopes for it.

Finally got around to finishing watching Killing Bites. Thoughts below:

Thunderbolt Fantasy S2 - I have to say, I'm disappointed. This was a general step down from the first season regarding nearly everything: the characters, the pacing, the fights. I actually rewatched the first season right before as it had been a while since I had seen it, and I enjoyed that rewatch more than I enjoyed this season.
There are a couple of reasons for this I think but in general I think it was just too hard to match the first season, which although had a somewhat generic structure (recruit allies, overcome the obstacles, reach the evil tower), it did it masterfully. The entire protagonist group in the first season was 10/10 with great dynamics, and the villain was surprisingly competent. The characters we got in the second season were pretty mediocre in comparison. I liked the Monk I guess but Sword Bard was just ok. The Poison girl and Glasses Tactician were just incredibly incompetent antagonists that weren't that fun to watch.
I understand the tone is a bit different, considering we knew Shang's power and the full extent of Enigmatic Gale's capabilities this time around. So creating antagonists which can still pose a threat was probably harder. Still, I didn't need to wait the whole season to see Glasses get fucked over when it was obvious it would happen from the start.
The fights felt toned down as well. Sword Bard was boring with his stringing attacks, and the new swords had some pretty dull effects to be honest. Still, I'm excited for S3. The post-credits reveal was probably more exciting than most of S2.
Just done watching Ore Monogatari.
It was all really wholesome and heartwarming, almost to the point of corniness. However the character writing is miles above the usual for the genre. Suna in particular feels very "real", for lack of a better word. I also enjoyed that the conflicts weren't the result of plot contrivances, nor were they unnecessarily lengthened by means of bad communication.
don't quote me on this
Mushihime abandoned its mystery for info-dump exposition in 2 chapters. still looking forward to where it'll go, but now a bit less so. the mystery was what made it interesting.
reading Shiga Hime, vampires are cool again
Tried to watch the Infini T Force movie. It starts off with the opening of the tv series, so I thought it was a recap movie. Turns out they go from setup right to final climax and then launch into the movie plot which is set after the show. And once people start talking in stretches longer than shouting out attack names and henshin slogans, I realized the subs were done either in google translate. It's fine for the start where its all actions, but once they get to heavy exposition sections like villain motivation and new hero introductions it makes it really hard to watch.
Maybe I can find better subs later.
