dandelion
totally fine premise, well done. the sad scene didn't make me sad, and the cmedy didn't hit for me but that's really subjective. By the gintama mangaka, I think?
ashiteru game wo owarasetai
I want to end this love game
we have kaguya-sama at home
and it has better animation
kuroneko to majo no kyoushitsu
the classroom of a black cat and a witch
I hate this so much. The production values are good but I hate it so much that it just makes me sad that that production is going to THIS instead of the many anime I've enjoyed that are powerpoints. what the fuck it's so gross.
ichijouma mankitsu gurashii!
I do not get cute cozy CGDCT vibes from an anime shoving high school girls' panties in my face constantly. pass.
kill ao
kill blue
Fun, competent first episode. I definitely roll my eyes at being stuck in school and have no idea how we're going to get a long running action plot out of this set up but I'll give it a shot.
... anime name so short i have a lot of characters leftover for once. huh.
yowa yowa sensei
yowa yowa teacher
this woman should never have been hired. Let's not fantasize about student teacher stuff, it perpetuates all kinds of bad, bad things. ecchi caused entirely by someone being impossibly clumsy that neither participant wants or enjoys is beyond trite at this point.
kami no shizuku
The drops of god.
dramatic and serious to the point of me finding it funny, but like, not enought to keep going. it's also focussed on wine and wine tasting which I fundamentally don't care about.
kamiina botan, yoeru sugata wa yuri no hana
botan kamiina fully blossoms when drunk
Always open to GL/Yuri-ish CGDCT anime, especially when they're about adults rather than HS girls, but I don't drink - never have - so a major crux of the anime being alcohol flavours misses me completely.
hokuto no ken: fist of the north star
Call me a CG hater, i don't care - this is ugly.
Why would I watch this when I could just go watch the original. lovingly animated 2D gore is always gunna be better, and at least *it* has an excuse for feeling so antiquated
hime kishi wa barbaroi no yome
the warrior princess and the barbaric king
I found this incredibly uncomfortable to watch. not a good way to get me interested. I'm also not into big grizzled men personally, or the stockholme fantasy.
kujima utaeba ie hororo
kujima why sing when you can warble?
I don't get it. I don't get it SO HARD that I don't even know what it's SUPPOSED to be giving and the main... bird .... hits some kind of uncanny valley of character design for me.
awajima hyakkei
a hundred scenes of awajima
gorgeous down to earth drama, on the woman-centered world of all-girls drama reviews. I struggled to connect with it emotionally but god I loved looking at it.
otaku ni yasashii gal wa inai!?
gals can't be kind to otaku!?
In a twist befitting the belaboured theme of this anime, this is way less painful and awkward than I had assumed. the girls are cute, mostly good animation, made me laugh, but i can't bear the main guy . bro just doesn't learn
tadaima ojamasaremasu
pardon the intrusion, I'm home
this is the comedy for me. whacky and deeply stupid. fun love triangle set up with ADULTS.
yes pls. i was clapping like a seal by the end.
mahou no shimai luluttolilly
magical sisters lulutto lilly
Cute start, dealing with emotions of growing up rather than fighting baddies. It's in the creamy mami lineage and i haven't seen those. obvs a little childish but not cloyingly so. i'll give it a shot.
only fansub for now
megami "isekai tensei nani ni naritai desu ka" ore "yuusha no rokkotsu de"
My Ribdiculous[sic] Reincarnation
a glorious insane shit post of an anime, with real style and a god-tier level gooner as main character. don't know who it's for but it's for somebody. not I
hidarikiki no eren
eren the southpaw
god im a sucker for a dramatic anime based around art. i felt like i got three episodes worth of story out of the first episode too. i kinda wanna smack the main guy but that's a good thing if it means he has space to grow
class de 2-banme ni kawaii onnanoko to tomodachi ni natta
I Made Friends with the Second Prettiest Girl in My Class
anime pissed me off WAY less than the title had me thinkin'. Perfectly fine wish fulfilment for loner highschool boy stuff. which means im not interested.
replica datte, koi wo suru
a replica can fall in love
a lot of potential. i feel like it's missing some OOMPH, and the male love interest is a potato. my main worry is that i might be thinking about the premise more than the anime is? I'm going to give it a shot tho
MARRIAGETOXIN
Now this is fucking anime. This is what i COME to anime for! fun, sweet, and badass. had a great fucking time.
if ppl dont make britney spears 'toxic' AMVs for this we RIOT
tongari boushi no atelier
witch hat atelier
When something is hyped, i always worry thatki won't enjoy it as much as if I'd gone in without being told to be excited. Let's celebrate when something is as exciting as you'd hoped it would be. An amazing first episode.
the story between a dumb prefect and a high school girl with an inappropriate skirt length
the presentation, the animation, is very energetic and bright, which suits the comedy well. The comedy doesn't work for me at all, but that's personal taste not execution
liar game
whelp. i hated about all of this. completely blunt and unbeliable. i dont really get how it can be enjoyable psychological game play when characters are so black and white. someone's gunna come tell me it gets better later, but if so why is the set up so bad.
komekami! girls
As far as i can tell this hasnt been picked up by anyone. I watched it raw. It's pretty bad so youre not missing out. rouuuuuugh animation, blunt story telling and no real stakes
ghost concert:missing songs
confusing hot mess that nevertheless has potential because i'm a sucker for these song fighter things and the 'historical figures' aspect was hilarious. 'sides i'd rather be confused than have someone narrate everything and overexplain everything.
nippon sangoku
This is probably the best anime I'm not going to watch. insane animation and it promises strategic depth and an intriguing main character.
(spoils)
then the 1 woman gets fridged. the main antagonist is the only fat person. over this misogynistic fatphobic antiquated storytelling.
Needy Girl Overdose
neon coloured fever dream that I probably shouldn't've watched with a migraine hangover. I'm genuinely not sure what I just watched, but I think I mean that in a positive way.
Psychedlic psychological traumafest
be forewarned there's a LOT of heavy topics here.
akane-banashi
Excellent first episode, fluid, funny, gets you really on the main character's side and eager to see what's next. I don't know much (hardly anything) about Rakugo so don't worry about that going in.
Kanan-sama wa akumade choroi
mistress kanan is devilishly easy
Ecchi that had almost no visual ecchi, that's actually funny (sped up 1.5x) AND unintentionally funny cuz the art on the boobs is BAD. I liked their dynamic??? Won't be watching unless it's to roast it but I think it has my approval?
yomi no tsugai
Daemons of the Shadow Realm
The incomparable feeling of watching an anime with set up and pay off and intriguing plot with good action, wondering if the hooks you're seeing will pay off, then realizing it's by the creator of FMA.
I'm hyped!
