Summer 2019 ANIMU Season - They're summer blockbusters of a sort, alright. Also, it's hot as balls. Crank that AC up.

I've watched Uchi no Musume twice now (the channel appears to have looped it at least four times total by now) and while Latina is cute, the overall production values seem pretty low...

Yeah, but I wasn't expecting much from The Latina Show anyway. A few glory shots every episode to highlight how cute she is, then flip-books for the rest. I just hope they improve the pacing. Right now, I'm confused by how some scenes are drawn out while others are too short, without regard to the importance to the episode.

How? Even the DEEN Fate/Stay Night looks significantly better.

I assume the meaning was that Maou, Retry looked interesting-good, not well-animated-good. The first episode was certainly more interesting than I expected it to be.

Kanata no Astra gives me strong Ryvius vibes. If it had more characters, it'd be a near match. Interesting enough to keep watching.

The first episode of Fire Force was amazing. Can't wait for next week.

[Wandering Swordwoman]

Great pilot episode from Dr Strange. Good view on science. The comedy is also good. Waiting until they start to make a race
Not much to say about this episode, but it'll be great later on

[aldeayeah]

CHOOOO CHOOOO

can you hear it

It's the VINLAND FUCKING SAGA hype train

[R.Lock]

Sounan desu ka is pretty wild. I'd not rec it personally, but I'm plenty sure it's nabbing the first the only? I still need to watch three seasons of Symphogear before starting the latest one yuri kiss of the season.

Spoiler:

[And it almost had yuri waterplay. I did say it was wild, right?]

Fire Force looks amazing, but shows zero promise of engaging story. Maybe it'll get better, but the first episode felt hella disjointed.

Symphogear hasn't had a yuri kiss (yet), but first ep of XV did have a yuri deito.
Plus, you know, a ton of subtext so thick it might as well be text in previous seasons, but we're talking about this one.

[Wandering Swordwoman]

wait... Did they just release 3 episode of Vinland Saga in one go?

[bassgs435]

Yes. And now we gotta wait 2 or 3 weeks for the next episode.

[Wandering Swordwoman]

AAaaaaaa......

Btw Kanata No Astra looks great! 47 minutes on episode one! That's more anime that I interested in

[Mattias]

The entire run of Kanata no Astra, I had this song running though my head.

Demon Daughter was cute and inoffensive enough to continue with.

Otome-domo was just a twenty minute dick joke, it was fun to start but got really old when that was the only thing going on.

I like Mechs, and I like Magical Girls, so why was Grandblem so unappealing? Rather than peanut butter and chocolate it was more peanut butter and fish.

Is Maou-sama a parody? Taking Overlord and giving the MC even more overt god powers can't be a thought an actual author had, right?

Joshikousei no Mudazukai had enough moments to keep up on.

[Rafflesiac]

Arifureta: Somebody tried here. Maybe it was just the author. It's bad enough where you can tell it sucks but not Ragnarok and Einherjar level so at least one person on the team gave a shit. It desperately needed more pre-RENSEI Nagumo but honestly I'm not surprised that was cut in favor of action.

I was always kinda worried about how the pacing would be for this, especially since just getting to tio and the town defense would take a while if they don‘t cut bits out. I didn‘t think they‘d speed through the beginning this much tho. I thought ep 1 would‘ve just ended at him falling.

[LegalLoliLover]

Cop Craft is a foregone conclusion. Arifureta is just edgier Shield Hero, speeding past the "zero to hero" part, but what about that young Nobunaga anime?

[Wandering Swordwoman]

I don't know, looks like bishounen anime than a life story of Nobunaga in anime style

[AmADo VII]

feels weird because Nobunaga wasn't voiced by Kugimiya.

It does show Nobunaga's favor for the common street urchins over the nobility, though, but yes, I wish that this was an anime of young Nobunaga, as portrayed by the TM version.

[Wandering Swordwoman]

Eh Cop Craft remind me of Man In Black

[Wandering Swordwoman]

Woa another promising pilot episode

[Mattias]

Cop Craft was alright. Feels like a buddy cop story, like magical Rush Hour.

Arifureta: What the hell was that? Even discounting the super EDGE, that episodes timeline seems like it was chopped to hell all for the sake of a few action scenes, because they knew if they tried to do things in a sane order people would be bored out of there mind before anything happened. Why was everything so dark? I couldn't see a thing for most of the fight scenes except the one place they should have hid it, at one bridge scene where the CG was worse than Overlord S3's climax.

[aldeayeah]

wait... Did they just release 3 episode of Vinland Saga in one go?

And they didn't even finish the intro arc! It's kinda puzzling
