I don't mind its use in anime, but I was worried it may have basis in Japanese society. Thanks for clarification.It's just anime and quite possibly lazy writing.

Mmm we definitely have similar tastes lol. Gave slime more time, liked it. Started watching that sumo show, liked it. Decided to watch the Bunny Girl show, surprisingly good. That may actually be the ninja hit of this season. I'm afraid of watching Run w/ the Wind....I don't want another Yowapeda disappointment. I'll give it a go when I have some free time. I heard from Gigguk's video about Conception. That sounds like a complete load of shit. He said the same thing I did about the Goblin first episode w/ respect to Conception.Hmmm, have you checked out the Sumo anime? I'm caught up with it an it's pretty good. It's your typical sports anime. The pacing is good and the story is moving along nicely. Out of all the new shows I'm probably enjoying this one the most.
Run with the Wind is another sports anime I'm watching that went into blind and ended up enjoying it. Bunny Girl Senpai if you're in the mood for drama, a little comedy and romance. I think I remember you saying you didn't care for Slime Isekai but I've really been enjoying it. And stay far away from Conception. What a load of trash that was.
And if you guys have Netflix we get Castlevania on Friday.
I finished up Seven Deadly Sins season 3 the other night. It was good, but I enjoyed the first season way more than this. All the power level talk really cheapened the show for me.
I don't know about the other seasons but the first season is a horrid adaption of the manga.After watching as much Tokyo Ghoul as I have, I wonder if the anime adaptation is just bad. It's so extraordinarily disjointed....the story just bounces all over the place. I feel like if the story was laid out logically and they adapted it better, it would be a much better show. These glimpses of a strong show appear here and there, but then get buried in the bouncing from sub plot to sub plot with big gaps between them.
That's a shame. It definitely feels like there's something good here, but was clearly screwed up. I'll have to check out the manga when I have time.I don't know about the other seasons but the first season is a horrid adaption of the manga.
They completely replaced the main character with a shonen idiot instead of the character with some intelligence from the manga.
changed a bunch of motivations making a number of plot points based on stupidity instead of traps
they changed the order of some stuff ect.
but yeah, if you somewhat enjoyed the show just go read the manga. It's way better written.
We seem to be watching the same shows this season. But I'm also watching JoJo and Golden Kamuy.Mmm we definitely have similar tastes lol. Gave slime more time, liked it.

7 Deadly Sins....yeah the power level thing was kind of dumb. It is a shounen though so.....not too surprising something like that came up. Big bad show up! Training time! Powah up-a! You win! I liked the story progression, but yeah, first season is still king.
I'm still watching it and I agree. Someone mentioned that it seems like the world is actually a D&D setting where a DM is directing things and given all the dice rolling I am inclined to agree. So far though the story isn't really all that great!So, it's been 5 episodes of Goblin Slayer for me and I think I want to say some things about the show. Mostly in case Starkillr stopped after the first episode.
It seems so far like the first episode was nothing more than the producers trying extra hard to be dark and edgy. The next four episodes are nowhere near the same tone and seem much more like an R rated version of Grimgar than they do Berserk. There's still plenty of time for that to happen again, but it isn't a constant theme.
That's not to say that I think the show is all that good, it just isn't as unpleasant as say the first few minutes of Magical Girl Site was.
Correct. Only canon movies are Battle of Gods, Resurrection of F, and the upcoming Broly film.The original Broly movies aren't canon, so this AFAIK is their first meeting
Really? Wasn't there a flashback at some point in the regular series about this? Damn maybe it was just my own flashbacks haha. Well either way, I'm looking forward to it.Correct. Only canon movies are Battle of Gods, Resurrection of F, and the upcoming Broly film.
Kale, the Female version of Broly of Universe 6, was made canon before Universe 7 Broly.
It's a good show. Could've been better if it wasn't marketed as a children's show. lolStarted watching the Log Horizon I got from Best Buy tonight. I realize it's not exactly news, but I really enjoyed the first four episodes. Isekai is a tough sell for me sometimes, because I need the show to work without solely relying on fourth wall/real world story aspects.
What I mean is, I prefer the shows where you can remove all of the real world references and still have a good fantasy/sci-fi series.
They'll probably stop producing it at the exact same place in the story as the original series just to mess with us.Yay. At least there wont be a cut off
I loved the first season. Great characters and that database intro. Good timesStarted watching the Log Horizon I got from Best Buy tonight.

nah, recent news said it will adapt it completely. lolThey'll probably stop producing it at the exact same place in the story as the original series just to mess with us.
The synopsis for Zombieland Saga sounds....stupid. Is the actual story/character development good? Bunny Girl is such a good show despite the horrific title.Reincarnated as a Slime is coming along nicely.
Rascal does not dream of Bunny Girl Senpai is also really good as is Zombieland Saga.
just watch it. We had a ton of shows that with stupider plot synopsis and they turned out really great
Okay. I'm intrigued. Like starkillr said the synopsis sounded stupid so I took a pass. I'll give it a chance once I have the time.Zombieland Saga is amazing. Possibly the best of the season.
Sorry for the double post, but I just saw this so decided to respond.Steins;Gate 0 question:
I just finished rewatching SG and the movie (so good!) and was thinking of giving SG0 a shot. Reading its synopsis on MAL though, I'm not sure if I should watch it. So for those who have seen it:
1) Is it depressing, or does it just start out sad and work its way up?
2) Does it ruin the feel of the series? I love how SG and the movie end. Considering SG0 starts as an alternate ending to SG, I'm worried it may change my sense of the series.
