Nah, I have seen that before. What this one did is take an Isekai, then start episode 4 in a completely different setting with a pristess asking him save the world. He got Isekai'd out of his Isekai into another Isekai. Though Like I said it's less a separate world and more Planet of the Apes, but it still feels like a third setting.
There's a bombed out planet of the apes statue and everything looks like Mad Max 2. It's close enough. Also by the time "General" Ninomiya is done with it, it's pretty close to ruined.

Glad to see Magia Record's second season episode 2 is still going strong.
Done? He just started.
In terms of this week's D_Cide, have I ever told you that I hate series where the hero works his butt off to do "something" but that "something" is not tangibly insignificant or is ultimately pointless? The 2 examples are the Evil's Return manga (though I think that that was a Korean manhwa to begin with but whatever) and the Peacock King anime and manga when they finally stopped doing episodic things. In the case of D_Cide, what was the point of stopping that particular Dreamer? To save his life? No, as soon as he offered his wish, he was a dead man. To save the life of the rapist? First of all, why? Secondly, that ended up being pointless, too, because said rapist ended up getting burned. To save the life of the transport guys? No, I'm pretty sure that got caught up the fire, too. Just to end the Dreamer's life before he becomes a "murderer"? What tangible meaning is there to just a pointless act? None, besides maybe some sense of moral superiority, but I doubt that the Knocker Ups were feeling that either. Yeah, sometimes, heroes shouldn't obsess over doing a good turn daily or whatever Boy Scout philosophy they spout.
Yachiyo kowaii.
Kuroe kawaii.

TanMoshi's biggest weakness right now for me is the production, which apparently has outsourced every episode after the first. A shame. Still fun, but it could've been so much better.

Did a bit more catch up:
Uramichi Onisan is my fucking spirit animal. Minus the gymnastics, becasue I'm an anime fan.
Opera Girls continues to subvert expectations, instead of them doing a last minute role switch to better showcase the talents of each, they stick it AND the MC gets shit on for being amazing but also being a carbon copy of someone else's performance (I assume, but that's what it seemed like it was building to before the cliffhanger).
Sonny Boy is a fucking trip. Starface actually being right rather than stirring up shit was a shock. But any episode that has me shouting "Tetsuo!" at the end is good in my books. I really enjoy how the main five are the only ones who really seem to be trying to fix things, and everyone else only exist to form up a lynch mob on the character in need of development this week. Also how the seemingly smartest person in the group has a power that is completely unrelated to that position. He isn't a super thinker or have some cheat that helps him, he has matter generation powers and just happens to be the most rational one on the island. I had to laugh when the monkey episode rolled around and Cap was lamenting that Asakusa(???, Dunno from now on he's Tetsuo) hadn't forgiven him yet. Dude, you beat him down with a bat while on a week long power trip after tormenting him for a while. Of course he's holding a fucking grudge.

Digimon Adventure Episode 61: A surprisingly good episode, definitely more in the vein of Sora's focus episode since there lacked any antagonist outside of nature itself. I liked how Takeru acknowledged he can't turn back the clock in regards to his broken family and so he's trying to compensate by returning Eldoradimon home instead. It was nice to see Gravimon not as a villain and instead (eventually) help out the heroes. The shot of all the Digimon together pushing Eldoradimon gave me major Axis flashbacks, complete with a shining miracle at the end that transports him to safety. Once again we don't quite get the full Mega transformation but rather the silhouette forming around the Digimon as a powerup...at least Taichi is catching on to what the Crests are about now.

Digimon Adventure Episode 62: Definitely one of the better Sora focused episodes who I felt has been the weakest link of the children this time around. I legit forgot that Sora didn't get her Crest when she got her Mega last time so I was initially confused when she talked about following the arrow still. Cool to see both Junkmon and Neamon return in more peaceful times. I really liked the point about how the Chosen aren't there just to fight as it ties in well with Sora's Crest being about Love. Interesting that we got some more lore about the Great War and how it wasn't just the Angels that were fighting the evil forces, though seeing the childlike Cupimon just get annihilated was surprisingly raw. I won't lie, when I first saw the Shakkoumon doll in the distance my brain thought it was a D3 for some reason and I had to do a double take.
Next week seems to be wrapping up the Crest arc and I am hyped to see how this all comes together for the finale.

My Hero Academia Season 5 Episode 106:
So Ending is a crazed villain who was obsessed with Endeavor and wanted them to kill him. Even going so far as to kidnap Natsuo right after the dinner.
I saw a few people say that Ending's Quirk was the most Stand like one. I'm not a Jojo fan, but are Stand just powers that could be not that threatening normally, but in extreme cases could be? His power is just to control the white paint lines on the road. I thought it would be something more devastating than that. And he's using one of those Quirk enhancing drugs too, so it's not that powerful normally either.
The guy said he went digging into Endeavor's personal life. Is that stuff just readily out there? Besides having a hostage, he wasn't that hard to take down.
Midoriya should not have been able to use Blackwhip like that though. He couldn't control it when it first appeared and couldn't even emit a large amount of it after and now he can suddenly emit all those strands of that power and catch 3 cars?! It's good that he was able to do that, but how? In a week?
The fact that Endeavor stopped in his tracks from saving Natsuo that was just sad. The fact that he thought his son would hate him even more for it, which I could see, is just... Like imagine if he did save him, Natsuo could say that it doesn't change anything, or that he doesn't feel indebted to him at all. It might have actually made things worse.
But because of that, Midoriya, Bakugo, and Todoroki did accomplish their goal of catching a villain faster than Endeavor technically.
Bakugo even brags about it before noticing the whole mood after.
All it took was Endeavor freezing, hah, during a chase because he hesitated.
At the end of the episode, he actually decided that the best thing to do would be to stay away from his family, not only for their safety, but for their own happiness. It's because he's the source of all of their pain. I like that he said that he doesn't need forgiveness, he needs to atone. He knows he did something wrong and he wants to make it right, not for himself, but for them.
