    Jujutsu Kaisen: Now we're talking. Bless this show's energy and youthful exuberance. Gojo's such a little shit, I love him. It's really funny seeing all of the S E I S H U N energy in the OP and ED knowing how it all goes down. The Eternity Devil making a cameo also gave me a chuckle.

    Bleach: AHAHAHAH what a goofy OP.
    Fine episode, the Ichigo additons are the clear highlight here. Rly looking forward to proper new content with this.
    Rest was straight from the manga, not the most exciting batch of chapters to adapt.

    WOOOOOO! New anime binge night part 1!

    Love Live Sunshine spin off: This feels like striking the iron when it's ice cold. Since the origin for this spinoff they've made two other LL shows, with their own unique casts, and given them both second seasons. Just not feeling it, especially when the actually interesting MCs are nowhere to be found.

    Level 1 Demon Lord: Wow this show is horny. Like five lingering ass shots in the establishing scene. The rest of the show was decent enough. Tenative continue.

    Horimiya Gaiden: More lovable idiots.

    Am I The Strongest: The story of NEET Oedipus. Wow this is generic.

    Tiny Senpai: Wow. I was too judgmental about Lvl 1 Demon Lord's horniness.

    Ayaka: Decent wordbuiling but flat characters. I'll give it a few to see if they expand on it.

    Masamune R: It's still fun, but having 3 seasons of Kaguya come out between these parts really hurts it. We just saw a more perfected version of it, so it's hard to go back

    Sweet Reincarnation: Like sweets, there's nothing of substance here, it's just empty calories.

    Dreaming Boy is a Realist: Anime man take 'no' for an answer, destroys tsundere. I kind of dig it, even if the MC's design is super bland.

    Girl Forgot her Glasses: Great if you like Velma Dinkley, but not for me.

    Agate: Random Chinese anime. Actually pretty fun if you can get over the language switch. Only like 6 minutes long too.

    My Happy Marrige: This looks like it's going to be good. Real Japanese Cinderella going on.

    Vending Machine: Was pretty bog standard, doubt I'll keep with it.

    At worst, people might think they're Chinese cartoons. Flashbacks to old internet days.

    Never understood how people thought that. Chinese sounds VERY different when compared to Japanese

    Mostly racist assumptions that all of east asia=china. People who have never heard chinese or japanese and all they know is "weird asian language with weird symbols".

    Yep, still annoyed when playing Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines, and all the Chinese sword-wielding undead use katanas, rather than dao or jian (really, only 1 character should be using a katana)... Of course, the Hunters from Europe also use katanas, so it might just be rule of cool and the sheer laziness of not wanting to make multiple sword models (despite the broadsword model actually being in the game files, but the Arabic-sounding sword is still a katana, rather than a scimitar or shamshir, but I digress). Of course, as I mentioned before, I can no longer complain about Chicoms using swords (an aspect of the Four Olds) in Fallout when Code Geass's China is also a mix of the worst aspects of the 2 systems (commie economic system de facto run by eunuchs).

    Liar Liar is disappointing. From the preview I was expecting some sort of Kaiji or Kakegurai thing about bluffing and basic games. Instead it's a generic A-1 battle harem set-up, only less action and more nonsense.

    Helck sounds like Disgaea, but the human hero is actually competent, unlike Gordon. Point is, does Helck actually hate his own species (in Dracula's words from Castlevania when talking about his Devil Forgemasters) or at least doesn't give a shit about them, like Princess Renner from Overlord, or is it going to be some "I can do good to humanity from the other side" bullshit, like I'm Quitting Heroing was?

    Wow the last bit of the list I had was full of bangers. Zom 100 is gorgeous. Gene of AI seems like it's going to be all about the heady sci-fi that GitS liked to do. Masterful Cat is Way of the Househusband but animated. Even Classroom of Heroes was fun enough for me to not give up on it, unlike Seven Swords or whatever it was called.

    The answer is "None of the above." Helck truly wants to kill all humans, but not because of hate or apathy. That said, he is a fundamentally good person so you'll probably hate him.

    Hey, man. You can play a good karma character in Fallout, but in some ways, by stopping the Enclave's plans, you've doomed "prime normal" humans.

    LVL, I'm gonna be honest with you. I just finished the manga like 2 days ago.

    It gets pretty dark at times, but it is a very optimistic series and the characters all get happy endings etc. I can absolutely guarantee you are not going to like it.

    In the pre-Disney version of Snow White, the evil queen was tortured to the death.

    Yes, but you sympathize with the Queen.

    I am not a woman. I wouldn't even know how to, though I admit that it really depends on the version, but for now, just assume the original one with all the original motivations, so again, I wouldn't even know how to sympathize with female vanity. Now, if you're talking about fairy tale villains, in terms of the Boy Who Cried Wolf... Wait, who is the hero and villain of that story?

    And before you bring up Eliza, no, Eliza's goal was to prolong her own youth, while killing Snow would not have done the same for the queen. Again, in the original version, I think that there is a version where the queen was trying to steal Snow's youth, but derivatives don't count for this purpose. It's like Shide in Summertime Render thinking that he's Sephiroth, but their goals are completely different, with Shide wanting to shut off existence, while Sephiroth wants there to be a universe to spread the Jenova cells across.
