What are you reading/watching? AKA Anime/Manga General

[Skull]

Be careful there, you're talking about two of the most beloved anime women of them all, their fans have ears and posts everywhere.

As long as we all agree that Kaoru is best girl, there won't be any trouble here...

[BnEl15]

Oh boy, a war is starting, I see. I'm either team swimming club kouhai or team class prez myself.

[Nikiri]

Kaoru seems to be the very fun type so far, and I'm weak against tomboyish girls

and i remember some bl user with kaoru in their signature, but cannot recall the username

i'm looking forward to Nanasaki Ai, she was first to catch my attention years ago

*Scratches head* ...Was it me? I definitely had Kaoru in my avatar back when I joined this site, but I can't remember if I had her in my sig as well.

Probably Bananashiki.

[Nikiri]

Ah, that. There's also Seiren, which is like a "sequel" of sorts (based on a different game with same developer).

Going to watch it for sure, it might have more character development that lacks a little bit now

I was actually thinking if I should just do SS+ with the character so there will be some kind of continuity, but scraped the idea

Probably Bananashiki.

most probably

I was going to say Amagami is thoroughly boring but BnEl reminded me of Seiren, which tries to do the same thing but is so boring it's unwatchable, so I guess Amagami did something right because I finished it.

[Mattias]

Right there with you. I tried to watch it, but couldn't even get to the end of episode 2. Wasn't good enough to be memorable, or trash enough to be funny. A solid 4/10.

[BnEl15]

Yeah, Seiren is less memorable compared to Amagami for sure. I only remembered it being... a little more fanservicy compared to the latter? And that's saying something when I remember that awkward Haruka foot fetish scene.

you just missed the "kissing on the back of the knee" scene in ep3 which is wtf

[Mattias]

Did it top Nisemonogatari? Because that's quite a high bar.

[Nikiri]

on my backlog, cannot answer

but the whole monogatari series seems to be on another level

[bassgs435]

So. because I dropped Kakegurui S2 while it was airing for some reason (I think it was because I was picky about subs or something), and I remember enjoying the show, I decided to rewatch S1 and finish S2 since Twin is coming in August. Pretty fun show. Very over the top in ways I like. I had a great time and look foward to Twin when Netflix drops it (as I understand, it won't be a TV show but one of those Netflix exclusive things that are released in batch in Netflix without a TV airing)

[Nikiri]

Kaoru route done, I can say that it felt like a proper story, and can understand why people will say she is the best, because she is. Fun to hangout.

this one had tummy kissing, so what will be next...?



Next one is Nakata Sae. A timid, shyish kouhai. They overdid with her voice, so might be annoying for some... will it be the least interesting route...

[Comun]

Oshi no Ko never shied away from namedropped brands like YouTube and TikTok, so it really surprised me to see a Netflox in chapter 81.



I wonder if just names are ok and it's drawing a logo that is a no-no.

[Rafflesiac]

Seems to be the case judging from Miyako talking about Tiktok.

As usual, I can't wait for the chapter beyond the break. I'm not fully sold on this time skip so far though; I want to see how things changed during then for everyone. And also lovey-dovey dating.

Ooh, that one. Don't remember the specifics to call it bad, but it does feel like the least memorable. I agree, it feels like they're trying too hard to sell the moe image, and it's not working for me.

[ResidentSeagull]

Just read Golden Kamuy.

spoiler/NSFW

It's amazing. Go read it.

That's all.

[TomPen94]

Watched JJK in order to get ready for the movie, which is screening here.
Gonna be watching it tonight, actually.

Not blown away or anything, but it's been enjoyable so far. And the top tier animation helps with the fight scenes.
