Mildly horrifying to think about, I don't think the world is ready for a desperate 30-something milfy Tomoko-chan to be let loose upon it.
Also I think it's for the best that she came before the AI age, very good chance that both parties would've been left worse off somehow by the end of things imo.

We just entered into the arc with the latest episode, and they've broken the immersion. They show the story as a play performed in a highschool. It was a total shit show when it came to immersion, you'd be watching an intense battle scene, not knowing if the character will survive or not, then the shot pans out to show a dumb prop battle.
Still, I'm trying to stay positive with how the story goes...
Probably would have been better had they had a better transition from the samurai days to highschool days, but it was all so abrupt. They continued the last episode's story, but now under the pretense that it's a play showing in a highschool.

I like the direction the show is going even if it's not executed in the most graceful manner. It fits the theme of "the feelings of the past" need to be respected and honored; particularly strong feelings need to respected even more.

Unfortunately I glanced at this thread before watching the episode so my expectations were tainted by preconceptions.
I do think it was jarring and definitely a major error in storytelling, but I guess it demonstrates how the old stories from the original time were kept alive. Or maybe the writer went on a tangent due to a love of that live theater stuff. Somehow Oshi no Ko made an entire season of it and there are anime shows about girls doing theater shows in front of people. I don't get it, personally, theater just doesn't seem appealing to me during the age of movies and animation.
I still like the show a lot, but that was a misstep.

 No.7306

I didn't have any issue with it. I do kind of wish they'd shown snippets of the intervening years instead of one big timeskip, but the ending hints that he just kind of hung around with the same people for decades and there's not much time left in the show. This was a good way of showing how their lives were carried on the the present day as he gears up for the final confrontation with imouto-san.

Still don't know why he's a DK though.

Kirby is one of my favorite IPs of all time. Such amazing, happy games even if they're on the simple side of things. Everyone's life would improve if they took the time to partake in some Kirby.
I believe the answer to this is Kirby has a contractual agreement with Nintendo that, despite being easy games, Kirby must pretend to die when he reaches the edge of a pit to fulfill his contract for the game to have a potential failure state. It's supposed to be one of the qualities of a video game, after all.
An immortal, omnipotent blob that can effortlessly defeat any other creature from this or any other universe must pretend! It's kind of admirable in a way. Kirby is pretending to be a mortal so people like us can attempt to understand and guide him.

It's an odd situation where there's a lot of mechanical depth with the absorption powers and a lot of effort goes into the level design on an aesthetic level but the challenges are generally very basic. It's a neat way to keep the games easy enough for small children while still giving enough toys to play with to keep an older audience engaged.

Most of the challenge in Kirby games, at least the more modern ones, comes from the true arena boss rush at the end of the game. They're all genuinely challenging and arguably the main appeal of the games for more experienced players.
The main game is usually great too but it's more about spectacle and getting familiar with the different powers and mechanics.

You know what I've learned? It takes talent to make a dumb harem show. The Shiunji siblings show is far better than it has any right to be, and that's because there's real talent behind it. I assume the source material is good, but what's surprising is a Hidimari Sketch director is in charge of this. https://anilist.co/staff/106406/Ryouki-Kamitsubo
Oh, and he worked on a couple Moon Phase episodes!
I should pay attention to creators more.
Is it a smart show? No, it's very dumb. But damn is it enjoyable!

Also I want to say this show has been surprisingly emotional the past few episodes. Minami's tennis arc was really good. Shed some tears, it was just so well done.
So apart from the sexiness and quasi-incest harem part (if you learned someone wasn't blood related you'd still see them as a sibling for a very long time) it's actually surprisingly well crafted in regards to the characters. Quite emotional for an ecchi show.

Daitarn is pretty different from the other two, it's a super robot show but the robots are really not such a huge focus. It's like a Lupin-style episodic adventure show with robots. Really fun and consistently high quality imo. I understand skipping it if you're only interested in real robot, though.

>>6613
Do you think the people who watched it in the early 00s in English had an encyclopedic knowledge of robot shows? They were still able to enjoy it just fine. As always, getting the references is just something that might enhance your enjoyment, not a hard prerequisite. And you can always just rewatch it somewhere down the line if you want.

I'm still in VOTOMs at the moment and while I'm enjoying it I'm starting to wonder if I should change my watch method from just watching the same series until its done and moving onto the next to watch 3-5 episodes from one series and another to alternate (either the same day or alternate each day) just so I don't have slowdowns like I had with Macross and now with VOTOMs. That's been my biggest problem with trying to catch up with anime is me slowing down my watch momentum on series that are long

The cute ninja anime has really been providing classic anime wackiness in a way that's been sorely lacking recently apart from Jashin-chan. I think this anime follows more the core spirit of what makes dark humor so great. The morality, or lack thereof, of their actions isn't forcefully shoved in your face and even is made light of as the killing spree continues unrepentant and furthermore rewarded. All the real negatives are left in the meta of the anime where you associate getting to learn the characters better with their unceremonious deaths. That carefree attitude lending itself perfectly to taking jabs at society as mindless killing provides a better life for Satoko and Konoha than any sort of ordinary lifestyle could, completely devaluing human life into a yen sign and enjoying each second of it.

I think Shaft having made this was truly a boon for this anime. Their prior experience with SZS and Maria Holic (No surprise also looking at who from Shaft directed this) primed them to be absolutely perfect for pulling it off. Not sure there's any other studio out there at the moment who could tackle it without shoving in some sort of forced moralfagging or messing up the underlying cynicism. Konoha isn't the kind of character I can see working as anyone but the completely black face of psychopathy, greed, and sloth that she is. And Satoko is perfect as her easily manipulated and lacking the brains for ethics sidekick. The abusive light yuri relationship between them being the perfect icing to complement this murder cake. I hope it succeeds as a nice like Jashin/Mahoako did and we can see a return to more Dokuros/Punies lighting our screens going into the future.

Maebashi Witches has been the surprise of the season for me and like 90% of it comes from this fat cunt being aggressively toxic at every available opportunity. Almost everything that works about the other characters and situations works because she's there to play off it and escalate minor annoyances into full-blown shouting matches. There is both humor and catharsis in her extreme and immediate judgementalism towards all the vapid and self-serving bullshit pervading the world. Even when she's hypocritically calling out her own flaws in other people her disgust only serves to emphasize how she truly understands the level of how bad it is.

I think I should host a stream of season 1 and 2 of this sometime this year. If this came out 20 years ago people would be making threads of it today, but since it came out today it's going to be forgotten about with only a handful of people having seen it. The downside of 60 translated shows coming out every season.
Good music this episode, too. Good job, New Zealand guy.
