Is this referencing something

>>134674
Reminds me of Cardcaptor Sakura, but I don't know if that's what's specifically being referenced.

>>134676
Looks like a blend of cardcaptors with something else.

I plan to continue making threads for it, but Puniru Kawaii Slime is my show of the season. Sometimes the joke density feels like Teekyuu, but it's full length! Well, you lose about standard Precure length for transformations, but it's really crazy that this is full length to begin with. The source material is like 10 pages per chapter, so they're really churning through them while adding to it! Each episode has about two transformations and they really make for fun, unpredictable stories. but at the same time it's not reliant on them.

It's been three episodes and she's transformed into:
Mesugaki
Boober Idol
Elementary Schooler
Succubus
Slightly Mature Teenager
Boy

And the animation! The animation is top notch! It enhances the gags so much when they're drawn this well.

4 episodes of Dragonball Daima are out and I can now judge it to be... really fun! It's very nostalgic due to the designs that harken back to, well, everything Toriyama was involved with from DB to Dragon Quest to Chrono Trigger and everything else. It's very sad that Toriyama passed away, but he was at least able to impart his designs before he left. I'm not sure what this will mean for the show later on (can't imagine it's only 12 episodes) but hopefully they had already planned a bit ahead.
People often associate Dragonball with the modern incarnation with its 20 minutes of charging attacks and power levels and stuff, but this is a story of adventure in the demon realm. This is exactly what I was hoping when it was announced and I saw them as children if it wasn't just SoL silliness. The humor and charm is all there.
I'm going to add it to the seasonal stream since I know its trajectory now.

Emilia's boobs have gotten noticeably larger. Like at least C- or D-cup to an F-cup... There was a year-long timeskip, I suppose. My headcanon is that Subaru took advantage of her naivety and has been massaging them daily this whole time. To grow that much naturally in just a year would be absurd.

I'm sure I'm very late to noticing this, but since I don't follow anime discussion at all or keep up with seasonals, that's fine by me.

My pretty cursory check of nip youtube and twitter comments didn't bring up CCS.

>>134920
Good to see. There's always room for self-improvement, you know.

Arco Trip still my show of the season. Slime is a close second. Corporation Mahou Shoujos is third at the moment. Favorite day of the week today for obvious reasons.

>>134674
Yes. But it isn't an anime.

gotten tired of mecha ude

Apparently DanDaDan and FirePunch authors had some collaboration, Dan might have been an assistant back then. Current episode had some people making the comparision

new gem

I'm not quite sure what to think of Negaposi Angler. I don't hate it by any means, but I feel like it should be better. It's an original and it has nice faces, but it's strange in what it's trying to do. It lacks the emotional impact that it should have for what's going on, although episode 3 was pretty good in this regard. I was hoping everything would be like episode 1 and 3. As mentioned in the first minute of the show, the guy is dying and has less than two years to live, but it's only been brought up a couple times in passing. It's just bizarre how it devotes so much time to silliness or learning about fishing. There will be a glimpse of an emotional moment which will end abruptly to make room for more fishing info.
The potential was there to make this into a deep and emotional show dealing with death, social growth after self-isolation and finding purpose, but it requires time that it's instead choosing to devote to explaining fishing techniques. Well, there's still 5 episodes left so it could maybe pivot back to it, but I'm not counting on it.

Please keep the wojakisms contained to the other 99% of the internet already full of them...

>The second half (episodes 9-16) will air on February 5th, 2025.
sigh... I guess it was said in advance, but why even split up a season like this?

>>135551

cute acro trip transition

and another one

amnazing how there are no monday/tuesday anime...

>>135681
there WAS tuesday anime

>>135681
I always feel like I'm falling behind because Thursday-Saturday bombard me with more than I can watch, but then I realize that just means I have something to watch Mon/Tues.

>>135682
what was tuesday

Should I take Meido off hold? Was somewhat hoping for more of cool killer Meido but sorta didn't watch past ep1 and remember it looking more like Rito with his reformed Maid trying to hold back his teen urges.

>>135681
>no tuesday anime
Tuesday is the only anime day for me.

>>135685
Guys?

>>135691
I can't comment because didn't watch it past the first episode either.

>>135691
i can't stand male centered romance stories

Sometime mid winter season I'm going to stream all of Soul Eater for the next season of Enen Shobutai. It gets pretty trippy around the end where the author starts going back to his roots(kinda).

It's not current season but this caught my interest for being intended for women but using online games, specifically an MMO, as a plot element. It's apparently popular enough to recieve a live action version.

>>135713
I liked the anime. I've never watched any live action adaptions, but is it possible they are more popular with women than men?

On one hand I really like Magilumiere, but I don't have much to say about it. It's interesting to see magical girls as a job and magic is a result of programming, but I'm not feeling the urge to make random threads about it.

orb: on the movement of the boobers

I just came back from watching that Lotr anime film. It wasn't very good. It wasn't bad, just very forgettable. Way too little time was spent on the characters in favour of action scenes, which meant that I for the most part felt apathetic whenever something dramatic happened. The scenes with Helm Hammerhand in the Hornburg were pretty cool though, and there was one shot of the main heroine's big butt right before that, so the film wasn't all bad. Also a couple of DQN in front of me reminded me of why I don't go to the movies.

I'm going to be really disappointed if NegaPosi Angler ends at 12 episodes. I don't know how they could possibly wrap things up unless it's going to be a "pretend nothing happened" resolution. It's an original so it's not like it's a "go read the manga" situation.
I'm just going to assume it will have a "to be continued in Season 2" pop-up.

>>135907
>I don't know how they could possibly wrap things up
Probably by like catching a really big fish or something.

I watched a whole bunch of shit that Kissu didn't bother with because I have somewhat different tastes

>Raise wa Tanin ga Ii
I genuinely feel like I'm watching an S3 of a series, I have very little idea what is going on but I'm not a big Yakuza buff. The animation is very poor but I like the dynamics between the characters and some of the girls faces are pretty good. I might read the manga of this. ~4/10ish

>Youkai Gakkou no Sensei Hajimemashita!
Another show with very poor animation, but I like the spirit of it, it's very unserious and self-aware. Some of the character designs are good and have some nice interactions, I like that Sensei didn't immediately get a harem and mostly hangs out with his male students (albeit it seems to be aimed at the Yaoi crowd). You'd watch this kind of thing dubbed on TV as a kid. ~5/10ish. But I'm biased because I'm a big Yokai fan. Speaking of...

>Dandadan
Yes, it's shonen and the humor is very juvenile (or erotic, depending on your strike zone) but the supernatural element is very cool, some of the designs are great but it's more about the romance than the action for a battle shonen like this. I think some of the wacky misunderstandings are dumb but it seems like they may not be misunderstands at all as it seems to be setting up a large romantic tryst. I also like the twist on the typical meek MC in that this one may actually be autistic ww (Hyperfixation, shuffling around instead of walking etc) and the main female lead is not the top of the class popular beauty and is poor. It has a good tearjerker episode too. My main problem aside from the animation not being as good as it can be is that I feel like they humiliate the female deuteragonist for trying to utilize western magic. ~7/10ish it knows it's getting a second season and I'll probably watch that too.

>Ao no Hako
This one is good if you can handle the MC and the 3D animation and like romantic drama. I won't give it a number rating because it's going into next season.

>>135927
>a whole bunch of shit that Kissu didn't bother with
I know I've made threads about Dandadan and Ao no Hako. Both are SHIT because the pink girl gets robbed.

>>135928
In Dandadan I feel like its supposed to be some sort of comeuppance because she's a bitch/dumb but it's overkill
In Ao no Hako, it was a tragedy from the second episode

>>135929
>she's a bitch/dumb
She's just chuuni. Everything she does is to help others.

>>135930
She was a bully at the beginning but after the washpan everything's been overkill, it's like an 80s anime

>>135907
Well, Negaposi Angler did end at 12 episodes and I'm disappointed at the abruptness of the ending. This is a show that should have been at least two seasons. I liked it quite a lot, but at the same time I don't think people would consider it a great one. I'm sad that I'll never see the characters again since there was a lot more to explore with them. It feels like so much was missing when it comes to having things happen in the story to make things more dramatic. The ending even had a time skip epilogue that waves away the fact that he was supposed to die from an incurable illness. A whole lot of stuff must have happened in that timeframe which should have been part of the show's season 2
Oh, well. An anime original having multiple seasons is probably pretty rare these days.

>>135975
The moral of the story is that you shouldn't trust medicine men using fear to sell snake oil.

>>135941
I hope she gets more screen time next season.
