    Watched the first episode of Mob Season 2, ah it's like falling in love with the comic all over again. <3

    The OP is even trippy-er than the first season, but also has a lot of foreshadowing thrown in that makes me smile.

    Watched a bunch of new shows, and so far just got a bunch of WTF.
    -Pastel Memories looks like some moe cafe show with a roster bigger than most idol shows which turns into a magical girl(?) show in the last minute with no explanation given.
    -Angel Flew Down is like if Uzumaid was a moe show rather than a comedy, which was it's one saving grace.
    -Ekoda-chan was really random but not bad, although 80% of it was an interview with the VA and the director, which looks like it's going to be an every episode occurrence.
    -Kemirikusa feels like a generic LN and looks terrible, par for the course for the Kemono Friends studio.
    -Cat Roomate from the human side feels like lesser Barakamon, only with a cat instead of rural children. The cat side was pretty good through.
    -Meiji Tokyo Renka looks like a generic otome game, did CLAMP do this? Because everyone looks really CLAMP-y.
    -Dororo was pretty good, but dude, you're going to get terrible sound from that shamisen if you have a hidden sword in it. Also how does an amorphous blob die from having a bridge dropped on it?
    -W's is literately a sequel to Handshakers. Only it looks like they toned down the overproduction. I didn't know you could get a second season of a dumpster fire. Oh, there's the overproduction, in the hallucinogenic music zone battle dimension. At least there's no CG chains and gears this time. Maybe?
    -Kakegurui 2 skips tower of doors, starts halfway through the finger guillotine and flashes back to the miniboss introduction. OP looks good but has a less than stellar song while ED has a good song but way less fanservice than the first.

    lol Wata Ten is Gridman anime sequel.

    Kemiurikusa is actually anime adaptation of an anime made by Tatsuki in 2012.

    and Kemono Friends S2 airs in same season ironically.

    Yes, you should probably be watching the sub, anyway, but hopefully, CrunchyRoll doesn't go the way of 4Kids. Of course, if they do, it would be hilarious that it goes to a point where the original creators end up encouraging fan subs, like they did with 4Kids.

    Given Prison School, Hajimete no Gal and Maid Dragon (Those are the ones I can remember. There can perfectly be other examples), anything could happen.

    Prison School pulled a Gamergate reference that didn't fit
    HnG and Maid Dragon are longer issues. But they both can be shortened as: adding commentary about the "patriarchy" and explicit feminist language where there wasn't any in the japanese version

    Was the original Boggiepop this disjointed? I like the character focused stuff each episode but the constant jumping around the timeline makes it hard to follow when a thing is supposed to be happening.

    Grily Air force is just the second anime from Shirobako isn't it. Why does MC think that the Japanese army would accept a Chinese refugee? The world might be getting atatcked by Neuroi Xi, but Japan is apparently taking it rather lightly by those news reports.

    I don't know how the first anime adaptation handled it, but the anachronistic, vignette style presentation of the plot is straight out of the LNs.

    IIRC the anime Boogiepop Phantom is an original story that takes place between vol 1 and 2.

    It's probably easier to handle when you have a complete story in front of you and you don't have to wait so long to find out what's going on. As is, the first episode nothing happened, and the second too much happened and all I got from it was that there's a clone of hobo-man whose going all Audrey II on everyone.

    I think that this season's anime adaptation is a rather unengaging take on Boogiepop, which really deserved more.

    Even though I enjoy the story telling it's kind of strange how Boogiepop kind of let me down. I decided to watch it due to liking the editing of the first pv and the second trailer but the anime didn't quite reach that same level as it for me.


    The opening is probably the most disappointing though, cause I really love the vocals, but the op animation somehow feels inferior to the trailer it was first displayed in. I feel annoyed that I enjoyed the domestic no kanojo opening than it

    The author or the character? That's a pretty vague statement.

    He did a lot of good work over a long period of time (I don't have a list of his credits off the top of my head, but I know he worked on an SAO season at some point). RIP Hiryuu.

    Fuck, it hadn't dawned on me how Kakegurui will be unwatchable until Netflix releases it (and even then that's a gamble) unless someone else miraculously picks it up and finishes it.
