It's great to see an anime that actually respects fantasy and doesn't treat everything like a silly joke, even if it's native isekai. The emphasis it puts on the passage of time is very interesting, and you don't need me to tell you that it's consistently beautiful. Feels like a mixture of Mahoutsukai and inverse Last Tour, where the legacy they come across isn't ruins but victory over evil from almost a century ago.
My favorite part was the first one, the so-called "setup," and even if it just remains yukkuri adventure SoL like
>>114229 says I'll still gladly keep watching it.
What I
will criticize is that the dialogue is kinda weak, there are a lot of moments where it says too much or too directly. Something like the birthday scene, or Frieren figuring out that the priest had tricked her. They could've been a lot more subtle about it, and I think that would've been a better match for the general atmosphere.

No.114400
Actually I do suppose that Frieren and Max's stories are pretty similar in everything other than execution.

Freiren is really pretty and, uh, "atmospheric" or however you would say it, but I don't feel drawn into it much. I should like it a lot, but I don't. Maybe it's that the main characters are kind of bland. The time thing is cool, but it hasn't been used in a way that's more than "remember that guy, he's older now".
I'm just treating the first four episodes as an intro, though, so it could become more interesting later on.
Really beautiful, though, if nothing else it's a pleasure to look at it in motion.
No.114411
>>114403It's mostly that the characters have no personality, but the show is really insistent on keeping those melancholy vibes going at all times so the brief segments of comedy or action feel unsatisfying and fail to provide those little emotional peaks that keep your attention. Actually, the boring characters are probably a result of this as well. Compare it to something like Aria where those atmospheric segments and hazukashi monologues are broken up by catch-phrases and funny faces to jolt you out of your stupor before easing you back into it. Those are the landmarks people latch on to, without them it's just a sleepy march through an empty field.

so, here's an odd one.
Good Night World is about a guild that's super close and friendly in-game, but IRL they're all family members who're very distant from each other, to put it lightly. i've actually not seen a lot a whole lot of VRMMO anime, so i don't quite know how it compares to other stuff, but i really like it so far; i typically hate high fantasy settings, even in the context of a game world, but it doesn't really bother me here, and i like two of the main character designs, most notably the protagonist, Ichi, who kind of reminds me of Vincent from FF7: Dirge of Cerebus.
however, the weird part is that it looks like the entire season shadowdropped out of nowhere! so all 12 episodes are out RIGHT NOW! and for some reason, there are like 35 subtitle options, with english having 3, which confused me for a bit.
i'm only on episode 1 right now, so i hope nothing super insane happens on like episode 11 or something that would make me stop liking the show...

>>115004i finished it! and i really liked most of it. the first half or so had an interesting kind of theme going about the nature of escapism and what would drive people to disconnect from reality and become absorbed in virtual reality and the internet and the like, and it was surprisingly nuanced; it didn't quite scream "ESCAPISM BAD", but also didn't totally paint the characters in the right for being completely absorbed in VR and ignoring their issues, it really hit close to home for me and i really liked it.
sadly, it doesn't continue down that path the whole way through, the last half or so gets super wrapped up in a plot about AI gaining self-awareness, and the show turns into more of what you'd expect from a VRMMO story; the game world and the real world start to blend together, and dying has stakes ("if you die in the game, you die for real!" meme goes here) and there's not really any deeper theme being explored, it mostly just revolves around the main characters' personal drama. note that i don't hate the direction it took, it's just that the first half of the show spoke to me more. i still really cared about most of the characters and was happy to see how certain things turned out.overall, it was a really nice surprise sleeper hit, at least to me. it felt nice to have another show where my hands were constantly on the screenshot button, there were a lot of moments i liked capturing, whether that be an (unintentionally) funny line, or a cool character design. and i also really liked the main character. he's cool and he reminds me of me.

No.115065
>>115023Just finished it too and I have to agree with your spoilers.
The story as it was setup initially did not require the supernatural intervention of AI and actually being trapped in an MMO. For me it detracted from the interpersonal drama and relatbility of the characters. Being motivated by a world ending force is far different than being motivated by the desire to repair your broken family. And any message about how people should deal with a more online environment gets lost once the story becomes about actually saving the world and actually resurrecting your dead daughter. The plot line with the research assistant and her death feels incomplete as well. It seemed to me like she was being setup to be the dead daughter in someway, given that the the mom knew her and the dad seemed really attached to her. Or maybe she was some former lover but it was never explained, she just died and her body disappeared along with the dad in the end.
The shows ending just felt odd and it could have been better, I really liked the show though just wish it didn't went the direction it did, there was a lot of potential for better, more realistic interpersonal drama No.115249

There's a comparison to be made between Helck and Berserk in how their story structure is set up, why one works and the other not so much, without any manga spoilers. Basically, the two start out with the present, where the protagonist is undertaking some sort of mysterious quest, then moves on to their backstory, previous events, and finally returns to the present where things were left off after having given you more context.
Berserk has pretty much one of the best executions of this ever. In the first volume alone, Miura introduces Guts, his arsenal, the brand, the spirits pursuing him, Puck, apostles, the fucking fetus, behelits, and in general just sets the tone flawlessly. Volumes 2 and 3 keep expanding on Guts' drive, experience, ruthlessness, contrasted with the Count's true but not absolute inhumanity, causality, and the legendary meeting with the God Hand where he demonstrates his rage and endurance even when completely powerless, with a flash of the past under the Band of the Hawk, and his conclusive sad victory over the Count acting as a full stop before immediately moving on to the Golden Age. There's hardly a pause, relevant things just keep happening one after the other, and it manages to set up a ton of densely-packed mysteries. It really is a masterpiece.
Helck coincidentally also devotes three (and a half) volumes to the present before going back to the past. These three are mostly about Helck's relationship with the colorful demons and their battle against erradication, alternating between silliness and more srs stuff. With the information given to us up to that point we can infer that all humans have been transformed into angelic automata, that there's something very wrong with it, and that Helck's trying to oppose it. We already know about his fratricide as well, it's one of the very first things we learn about him, and we know that the demons are not responsible for the monster attacks. They don't understand what's going on either. So, there aren't many mysteries or stuff to explore, and I think that's a crucial difference.
Now, the timing of the retrospective is very important too. Helck and Vermilio are in the middle of their return trip (which helps them become nakamas) and have almost arrived, but suddenly they decide to sit down and dedicate one and a half volumes to Helck reminiscing. The plot hasn't advanced a whole lot so far, and this is basically an interruption on top of that, one which doesn't really give us an awful lot of new information.
You have a tragic backstory, yes, but it's a fraction of the Golden Age's length (1.5 vols versus ELEVEN), it lacks the time to really build up the story and people, and ends up contributing very little. The Hero Slayer comes out of nowhere, the motivations of the good guys are rather simple, none of the characters change much, and the background of the conspirators isn't elaborated upon. All of this stuff is actually developed AFTER the flashback ends. It not only has a severe deficiency of all the nice demons we've met, it also becomes far more serious overall. The manga does keep up with these folks and their hijinks, but it's done through extra 4koma and mini-chapters that didn't make the cut.
It gets a lot better later on, I'm currently at the penultimate volume, but this section in particular was pretty ehhhh. Less than ideal.

Apparently they cut out a pretty big and cool scene from Komari's anime that went over the big core implosion scene.
￥Komari was expressionless. She regarded Delphyne with eerie scarlet eyes.
￥“You… What did you do?”
￥Her voice was trembling. That amount of mana was beyond imagination. Delphyne instantly realized Komari was too strong for her to handle.
￥Terakomari looked down at the maid at her feet, who was now powerless, naturally—Delphyne’s knife had hit her vitals.
￥“Did you do this?”
￥There was no emotion in her voice.
￥All the other vampires had caught up to them, but they were paralyzed, unable to move in the face of that abnormal mana.
￥“Did. You. Do. This?”
￥Komari’s voice was lower now. It took a while for Delphyne to realize the question was aimed at her. By this she probably meant the maid’s wound. She replied without thinking.
￥“Yes… And what of it?”
￥“Okay.”
￥Terakomari carried the maid in her arms, then started levitating in the air. This flying spell was nothing out of the ordinary. Still, the vampires around her stood with their mouths agape as they saw the girl covered in blood slowly ascend to the stained glass in the ceiling.
￥Then she raised her right hand.
￥A magic circle materialized, but not a regular one. The amount and quality of mana accumulating within seemed not of this world. The air rumbled, the walls and floor started cracking, and the vampires started foaming at the mouth and fainting, unable to endure the pressure.
￥That was no advanced-level magic. Not even special-grade magic.
￥It was Effulgent Magic. An ancient, thought-lost level of spellcraft—the highest possible.
￥“Wai—”
￥Delphyne called out, but it was no use.
￥The mana exploded.
￥A red flash shot out from the magic circle and burned not only the entire castle, but also the city all across the battlefield, down to the tiniest grain of sand.

The worst you can levy against stuff like kage or kusuriya is a 'meh' and that the topic doesn't interest you, and while I do somewhat agree that Kage's not the greatest thing since sliced break, it's still fairly above the usual crap isekai. The apothecary one I love for telling a more mature tale in a setting not commonly exploited by jp stories and having engaging characters.

If MAPPA executives have been half as terrible as people say they have been recently, then their failings could potentially be beneficial as talent splits off and makes a better studio. It's not too unusual for it to happen, or maybe they'll just boost the talent pool of existing studios?
All in all, it doesn't need to be a horrendous blow, except to MAPPA management or shareholders and they likely deserve to suffer anyway.

I don't think Shadow is any different. It's just that there's less hints of him being a sociopath and now it's more outright. Less playful chuuni, more showing how it's a cult. The first arc was pretty nice and I did like most of the John Smith one. Current is contrived
No.117106
>>117104Filler in what way? That it's not advancing the fight against the cult like S1 did? Cid constantly made the point before that he wanted to try out various things, disguising himself and playing different roles, so ultimately clashing against the rest of the Garden while acting as John Smith makes perfect sense. I absolutely loved how conflicted the girls were, and how Delta was immediately able to see through the illusion so he had to direct her elsewhere, and the last episode was great. Can't see what's rushed about it, either, wasn't the problem that they were taking too much with this?
I don't get the problem with the water park either, it was an episode dedicated to showing the girls doing their own thing as a whole group for once, and it was pretty nice. There was absolutely zero NTR in any shape or form, they got physically swatted away, and the director's explanation makes sense.

I'm not a big fan of Shadow this time either and I think I said so already a couple weeks ago. There's too much uneventful discussion and it's more serious than chuuni. It's like that trend where a silly web comic over time turns into a serious one. TVtropes has a page for everything!
https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/CerebusSyndromeIt's strange to me that it's so highly rated, like people are just hoping for it to return to its expected glory. (and I hope it does). I'm glad there's people here that still enjoy it a lot, but I'm mentally checked out of it.
I'm catching up on this year's Bocchi (original Bocchi, not music Bocchi)
Hoshikuzu Telepath and it's really cute and nice. The visuals and faces are really good! The forehead 'kissu' thing is cute and sometimes a bit ero. There's some simple talk about rocket science which was unexpected, but thankfully Yuu echoes my own stupidity and it doesn't linger on it for too long. I was a bit surprised to see it maintain the focus on the bottle rockets, as I assumed that to just be single episode plot. It works, though.
I'm 3 episodes behind having just finished episode 6, but I'll definitely going to watch all of it and enjoy it! I think the stream is missing out on voting it off, but it is one of those sleepy shows that are difficult to marathon.
No.117133
>>117123>There's too much uneventful discussion and it's more serious than chuuni.I entirely disagree. The only "uneventful discussion" has been the bathhouse episode. Every single other episode and scene has served to present and characterize Cid's chuuni side and moments. I've been under the impression that the appeal of the show has always been this highlighting of Cid's chuuni moments. The second episode of the series is a great microcosm of how the author highlights Cid's chuuni moments.
The second episode of the series is a microcosm of how all the other story arcs.
1. Cid has some interaction with Shadow Garden to show how things have developed with the organization so far. Cid is generally surprised by some event that Shadow Garden believes is important but Cid had no idea about. Through some misunderstanding Cid makes it sound like he already has a plan in place to handle Shadow Garden's event.
-
Cid rescuing and curing Alpha, telling her the made story about hunting the Cultists, and then Alpha recruiting more members for Shadow Garden.
2. Cid pretends to be a nobody that is utterly unremarkable.
-
Cid not being able to slice a boulder with his sword unlike his sister. When sparring Cid always loses to his sister and never learns.3.Through either happenstance some situation is forced upon him that an unremarkable average joe (background character) would be utterly helpless in dealing with.
-
Cid's sister is kidnapped.4. Shadow Garden mobilizes to deal with this situation and inevitable misinterprets Cid's intentions and Cid misinterprets them, believing them to be merely playing along with his fantasies.
-
Cid and Epsilon find the Cultist hideout (Cid believes Shadow Garden is merely calling the bandits, as cultist due to delusions) from Cid accidentally tossing his dagger at the wrong place on the map.5. Shadow Garden does some fighting while Cid meanders around, maybe fighting, looking for a chance to have a "chuuni moment" with someone.
-
Shadow Garden fighting the majority of the Cultists and driving off the leader. The choose not give chase, as the leader is headed towards Cid. Cid had no idea that Shadow Garden drove the leader off or that there was some secret entrance, he was simply wandering around and looking for someone to fight.5a. The main girl of the arc, fights the "big bad" and loses. This step can happen in the middle, before, or after "Shadow Garden" mobilizing.
-
Cid's sister breaking from her chains to attack the Cultist leader.6. Cid fights the "big bad", by playing with them. The "big bad" is usually someone close to the main girl of this arc (not for episode 2) and during the fight uses some special power given to them by the cult.
-
Cid fighting the Cultist leader and him taking too many red pills
7. During the resolution the main girl leaves or their is some distance put between here and Cid.
-
Cid's sister goes off to schoolEvery single story arc, hits these beats and the purpose of them is to construct the dramatic power "gap" between Cid and the rest of the world only to bridge that dramatic "gap"; in the fifth beat and then begin the process of remaking the gap in beat six. We the audience know Cid is more powerful than his outward appearance but the world does not know that, a form of dramatic irony and essentially gap-chuuni.
There is a caveat here, the hot springs/dating arc doesn't really conform to this structure but I think that speaks to what
>>117104 said with it being an addition to the story. "The uneventful discussion" and "serious" tone of some parts are needed to remake the gap that separates Cid and the rest of the world. These parts are not in anyway filler or meaningless to the story, when considering the their ordering within the beat structure outlined above. They are part of the process, highlighting Cid's chuuni moments. Without them the show would just be an uninteresting power fantasy.

I actually liked the onsen episode because it reminded me of the first season. The girls
fighting some sort of water dragon thing was cool whereas if was like the previous episodes there would be 5 minutes of the girls talking in the changing room about Cid's greatness while barely moving and then 10 minutes of the economic situation of water management and how they will take control of local tax laws to leverage power to blahblahblah and then something cool with the remaining time.

It's literally just pic related but as an entire story arc. Serving to again highlight the gap between Cid and the rest of the world, instead of just a power gap it's an intent gap. The whole economic talk abotu what's happening is really all just there to show how rudimentary Cid's understanding of economic forces is and how he is only just making counterfiet bills to steal money from other banks. Where as the Everyone else is thinking he's doing it as some complex scheme to intentionally crash the economy and devalue the currency, all to crush the Merchant Allaince; depriving the Cult of an economic resource. Those concerns are all secondary, if even, concerns for Cid, he just wants personal wealth. The gap between the audience expectations of Cid's motives and the world expect Cid's motives to be is again the core reason to watch the show, as the audience has all the cards laid bare in the final episode of the arc, with all the double entendre that were previously stetup, being explicitly shown to us and how Cid doesn't get what he wants but instead gets what the world/Shadow Garden thinks he wants.

>>117412Well, I hope I've made it really obvious that I really, really like
Undead Unluck and it's my favorite show this season (and it's continuing into Winter!). I made a thread on /jp/ about it but be aware that it's full of spoilers. >>>/jp/62144
This was quite a strong season and I'm sure I even missed some shows.
16-bit Sensation is a great quasi-nostalgia thing which is an adaptation of a manga created by Aquaplus staff,
Migi to Dali is a fun and bizarre, uhh.. something or other,
Frieren is fantastic albeit generic fantasy (although the first few episodes bored me),
Spy X Family is more of the same (which is great), uhhh...
Hikokomari is pretty good (but can't seem to decide what it is) and
Hoshikuzu Telepath is the sleepy SoL of the season.
Unfortunately the return of the horse girls and Kanojo mo Kanojo aren't as good as previous seasons, at least to me.
Some people here really like the Chinese apothecary girl show and that Shadow one, but I'm not a huge fan personally.

>>117475I wouldn't really group together Kusuriya and Shadow. Shadow serves as fine entertainment with a nice comedic tone, but Kusuriya has a more serious quality to it that meshes well with the more unique ancient chinese setting. The episodic detective-like story does well for mixing in with the nobility politics of the royal court, especially when you have it taking place in a power struggle between courtesans.

>>117475>fantastic albeit generic fantasyI don't disagree at all, it's a very basic setting and there's nothing about its worldbuilding that screams originality, the interesting part is how it's played entirely straight and in a very down to earth way, with a lot of time and effort put into the little things. How it carries itself. "Contemplative" is the word that comes to mind, inspiring something like pic which you rarely see any media do.
It uses its simplicity pretty well, it's most obvious with the massive storm it brewed up all throughout the internet by just going "demons bad, actually." It's the same thing Goblin Slayer does with its eponymous beasts, except this time they're articulate and pretty. But they're still simply irredeemable monsters. It's not that they're complex characters, it's the exact opposite.
A lot of Jap fantasy feels to me like it's not serious from the get-go, it's more like "what if this joke wasn't a joke." Kinda like Mushoku, which still goes uwaaaa kemonomimi sugoooii in its lighter moments, but Frieren doesn't do that. It can make jokes, the difference is that it doesn't really lampoon itself.
