4·6 days agoOh? Is Makoto going to figure it out or continue to be completely oblivious? That cliffhanger is evil.
Makoto’s father is amazing. He’s supportive and doesn’t make assumptions. He’s just letting Makoto explore their identity.
I don’t care how many times I repeat myself. I fucking love this show!
It looks like the anime is now ahead of the manga. Ngl I forgot that the source material is actually a light novel.
Yuki saying that Kuze is the greatest talent produced by the Suou family gives me really bad vibes. There’s definitely more to why Kuze chooses not to exercise his full capabilities than just his own reasoning. It gives me Ayanokoji vibes except Kuze’s issues express differently.
Taniyama feels like a very interesting person. I wonder why Kuze seemed so wary of her because ordinarily no matter how capable she may be, she didn’t seem like she’d be an actual threat to Kuze. I can definitely see how the author was inspired by Kaguya sama.
I call this the Ainz-sama trope and it’s my favourite trope in media.
Noor really is just built different
That was fucking hilarious! My theory with absolutely no basis is that a dev needed placeholder assets and decided to have some fun.
Also I love how much Haga’s freaking out here.
Maybe it’s just me, but I feel like there’s something off about the animation. I can’t quite figure out what about it bothers me and it’s confusing me.
Anyway it looks like Ayase cleared the test and found a job. Nice. Also Narasaka is annoying.
Now this is what an adaptation should look like. Play into the strengths of the medium and elevate the source material. It really hits different from the manga. The abstract sequence felt like it used the momentum up to that point to take me on a ride with Melt as he grew as an actor. It fits perfectly both in universe and from a meta perspective since this is also an adaptation.
Next up, the showdown between Kana and Akane. I’m excited!
Holy shit Naori is so powerful it’s almost scary. That self-confidence is blinding. Her position in this love triangle really does feel looser as her friend said but in all honesty, I believe her comparison of Jun to that pudding. If she really wants something, she’ll get it. She just cares more about nerding out and having fun.
Also wow Jun’s friend said some crass shit but somehow managed to be the voice of reason. Dude knows what he wants and doesn’t care about putting on airs. I respect it.
Also new meme template just dropped.
Kind of a slow episode. The exposition at the start felt a bit boring but the rest of the episode was fun.
This feels really pretentious. I’ll take a look at the source material at some point to see if it’s any good but I’m dropping this anime for now.
Oh Makoto you cute dumbass
So it seems like Aoi doesn’t necessarily want a romantic relationship, but rather a genuine one. I wouldn’t say she isn’t in love with senpai because it’s too early to tell, but she clearly felt a new and unidentified emotion for Makoto.
Anyway this show is Personal Attack: The Anime for me because every fucking character seems to be calling me out :)
Remember when I said I have no trouble recommending RoshiDere? No? Good.
Masachika really tripped all the flags huh. Ssg protag powers.
That’s what you fucking get kuso imouto
This episode moved my opinion up from meh to interesting. The general vibe of the anime also reminds me of some things that happened in the past so I think I might be a bit biased when reviewing it.
I also didn’t know about Osamu Dazai until I saw the last discussion thread but now I’m interested in looking at some of his work. I feel like it’s best read in Japanese though and unfortunately I’m not fluent enough to get that kind of prose.
Also I really like Maeshima Mayu so I had that ed in some of my playlists before I even knew this show existed lol
Best manga I found this week and the youtube channel is also gold
I feel you. I set aside a couple of hours to read novels before sleeping but I used to read waaay more during the day. I miss the days where I could just read an entire novel series on a whim over the course of three days.
I realise that’s the point but I want to highlight it anyway. This isn’t yet another formulaic isekai. The story doesn’t revolve around Sensei. I love how the solution to all otherworlders isn’t to write a story and then banish them, but rather an actually compelling narrative conclusion. Suzuki returned to Earth after growing as a person, but nothing would change if Kaibara went back since he’s long past the point of redemption.
When I heard his backstory I was thinking “ugh, is this the explanation?” but I also had a feeling that Sensei would never accept such a story, so I was thrilled when he straight up called Kaibara boring! Naturally, all the pieces fell into place when I saw him hand Tama the glowing book and any remaining doubts I had about this anime were erased.
Now to add the manga to my ever growing list.
