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

[kilopi505]

Is anyone following Oshi no Ko?

Also, wow. It's been a really, really long time since I posted here on Beast's Lair.

[Deathhappens]

Finished Hayate no Gotoku, everything, from anime to manga.

the parents are really scumbags, aren't they

And

last chapter spoiler about Hina

Hinagiku "lost" for the first time, and confessed, but it seems Hayate refused, eh?

and

last bonus chapter

Maria is older sister from another mother?! the Ayasaki father is reaaally a scumbag

if I had to follow this manga for 13 years it would be kinda pain the neck to wait for next chapter, Hata Kenjiro really did prolong this story a bit too much. But I still kept reading without being bored.

Well, Hata is just rubbing his normie-ness to his fans' faces these days, so I guess he really needed that break too.

Finally read and finished Claymore in 3 days, it was too good I didn't want to stop.

I was always curious how manga went, after I finished anime years ago and I'm not disappointed. But have to say, that the plot escalated in unexpected way I felt overwhelmed for a bit. A lot of new characters and with my pacing I sometimes forget what was his/her name / what are their specialty.

and i'm diggin galatea in that nun outfit


now i wish we would get angel densetsu and claymore anime to the end...

Yeah, Claymore kind of went in a wtf direction for a while, and the ending wasn't all that great (especially if you were reading it serialized and had to watch that stupid Love and Hate fight for three months straight). But it would be a treat to see it all animated.

[eddyak]

It's too bad the last episode of the animu went all to hell.

[Mattias]

I think I dropped off Claymore right around the point they beat half of the big 3 monsters.

How is it possible to beat "half" of three anything? Did they only beat 1.5 of one of them?

[Mattias]

Yes.
Claymore got weird.

I have the next two days off and since I have no new anime to watch while I drink, I'm going for a rewatch of one of my old standby's. It's too early in the year for KnK, so that leaves Slayers, Black Lagoon or Angel Betas. I don't need a cry so Angel Betas is out, and I recently watched Captain Tylor so I'm not feeling nostalgic for 90's animation, so Black Lagoon it is. I wonder if I'll get all the way to MegaMaid tonight....

There was a new chapter of the manga awhile ago and the translators actually finished that last arc with the hacker, so you could check that out.

[Historia]

I read more manga than I watch anime now.

So, let's see:



Sekitou Elegy
Jagaaaaaan
Elf-san wa Yaserarenai
Bijin Onna Joushi Takizawa-san
Rokudou no Onna-tachi

Out of those Rokudou no Onna-tachi is the best one.

[GDB]

Just got caught up on the Railgun manga because the anime was taking too long.

All I can say is... wtf is happening with Uiharu!?

[Rafflesiac]

who even knows

[Deathhappens]

Εven odds she turns out to be a secret boss or Magic Side plant and I don't even Railgun.

Jagaaaaaan became such a trainwreck so fast. What's even happening now?

[GDB]

Εven odds she turns out to be a secret boss or Magic Side plant and I don't even Railgun.

Spoiler:

It looks like she's about to get dragon powers.

"Good Morning WARUDO!!!"

*Ahem*, this heatwave has killed all energy to do anything productive so I just sat on my butt and binge watched "Dr. Stone" across a couple days.

Goddamit, how you gonna spend all season building up to this war between the Kingdom and the Empire and then just end right as it's about to start. If there hadn't been the Season 2 announcement at the end I would've been so mad. Anyways, the show itself is really good. Fascinating premise with a bunch of entertaining characters. Can't wait to see where the story goes next! <3

Side note, watching the OP totally had me thinking this was going to be a Naruto-esque series except with science based powers instead of ninjutsu. The Kaseki segment in particular totally looks like he's firing a Hadoken from his hands or something. 'Course now I know he's just making glass with an overly dramatic camera angle. XD

[aldeayeah]

Character-wise, Dr Stone is quite like Danganronpa IMO.

That manga has a certain "purity" (other would call it simplicity or naivete) that I find very appealing. Haven't seen the anime though.

It is by the writer of Kaguya. Gotta love Aka. I'm glad it started out weekly, I always felt Kaguya had pacing issues early on being on the biweekly occasionally monthly mess that was MJ with pacing and going to weekly helped it.

If you like it check out Shounen no Abyss.
