naruto again because i hate my life i want to be real shinobi

Bocchi the rock! Actually pretty good slice of life anime.

Finally got around to finishing Noragami after dropping it for 3 years. I think it's good, just super underwhelming in many areas. In a way the first season feels more like it's setting up the world more than actually getting into its main story.

Agreed. At least season 2 moved on to more plot but the series just felt underwhelming overall.

I'm watching Haikyuu and somehow the comedy gives me strong Hajime no Ippo vibes, only that less explicit and more gayer.

Bocchi the Rock!It reminds me of K-ON.I love Hirasawa Yui and Gotō Hitori so much!I hope it will be a great success!

Kakkou no Inazuke

the sister is cute

trying to tick off all Trigger/Imaishi's anime. finished BNA a couple weeks back and im currently watching Panty and Stocking. maybe Promare or Little Witch next.

having a hard time getting through it tho. honestly it doesnt even feel like a series but more of a compilation of episodes. understandable given its trying to replicate american cartoons style.

Medaka Box, on episode 2 now and its pretty interesting. Same author as the monogatari series iirc.

Akiba maid wars going hard ngl

i'm not watching anything atm but i'm currently reading spyxfamily. i know it is overrated but i have to it, it's a interesting and a funny manga

violet evergarden, the animation is just omg

Just watched Chainsaw Man episode 7 and Himeno has lost all my respect BUT Power/Denji are still my favorites

Are you watching the filler episodes?

I've been watching Phantom: Requiem for the Phantom.

For 2009 standards animation is superb, I also like the opening and the sountrack.
About the story, seems to develop slowly but surely.

ill try it but ill stop if its bad or annoying to watch but im gonna watch the entire shippuden series and the movies that are cannon

Recently finished Bubblegum Crisis. Despite some weird writing flaws here and there (like character deaths and emotional drama that absolutely do not work) it's a pretty fun Sci-Fi Police show with great animation and an outstanding soundtrack. The main girls are all likeable and each have excellent designs. The opening of the first episode is quite possibly one of the best openings to any show in the history of the medium, not even kidding.

Barely inches itself into a 7/10 for me. Fun 80's anime action.

Now I want to currently watch Bocchi the Rock but I'm too lazy for it. BUT I'M GONNA WATCH IT ONE DAY.

i started Chihayafuru yesterday. it's a lot of fun and is a breeze to get through even with it being 25 episodes

I started jujutsu kaisen a little while ago. I don't get the hype. It's just an average shounen anime.

finna be watching onimai i think. i read the manga years before the anime had even been anounced. though i find it weird that thay changed mahiro's hair from white to pink and now she looks like hoshino from blue archive.

It does everything a shounen does in just 25 chapters which is an achievement. It's a bit generic but does its job well enough.

I semi-binged Boogiepop Phantom (the 2000 ver), will watch the 2019 version someday. Pretty good mystery anime.

Just started rewatching Nichijou. It will forever be my favourite anime lol

Currently watching Hellsing (2001). Overall not much to say as I'm only 2 episodes in, but I like what's being presented to me so far: crime / monster of the week type show. I like its gritty aesthetic to an extent although the art department could be a bit better especially with the sky (which looks flat and makes the world feel smaller). Not expecting anything extraordinary or necessarily great but I'm enjoying it nonetheless and hope to see more of Alucard, both in this version and later in Ultimate (Ultimate I have high expectations for, not in story or overall depth but in visuals and its more care-free, comic yet badass presentation of Hellsing's ridiculous ideas).

Yay let's goooooo!!!

I started watching Tomo-chan Is a Girl! Let's just say it shouldn't be made into an anime...

The angel next door spoils me rotten anime. It's quite a letdown from the manga

Currently, watching "Don't toy me, Miss Nagatoro 2nd Attack". And I like it. SPOILERS AHEAD: Nagatoro seems to slowly love naoto cuz she cared about him. for example, she easily gets jealous when naoto compliments other girls, which was also seen on the first season. One of my Favorites was, when Naoto got sick and her mother went to work, nagatoro was worried bout him and went to his house. to watch after him, until naoto's mother arrived home. How adorable 😊.

I gotta recommend you watching this. It's a pretty funny and a nice Slice of Life Anime. Some parts are pretty annoying, but you'll get used to it (I hope)😅

Kyokou Suiri Season 2. I was going in this anime with low expectations because of the 1st season but was genuinely surprised when I enjoyed this one. I'm currently in the middle of the pinocchio story.

But honestly the reason why I like this season so much is that the story now revolves around the relationships between the yokais and the humans. The 2 main characters only appear when they get called to solve a problem that the humans and yokai have. I hope this formula keeps continuing for the 2nd season as I really enjoyed this slice of life style they're going for here.

i started watching Oniichan wa Oshimai!(onimai) because of a funny clip i saw and its so fucking weird but i cant stop watching it

I've been watching Onimai and Tomo-chan wa Onnanoko and the only thing I have to say is that I find them funny

Currently rewatching FMA:B. It's peak. What else can I say. Plus it has Riza Hawkeye so 10/10

I just finished Yuri Kuma Arashi. I did not expect such a mindrape.
Despite being WAY weirder than the other two Ikuhara's anime I watched, this was considerably easier to understand.

SHABADADOO.

watching angel beats rn.

azur lane bisoku no zenshin

funny and good, but really short, each ep is 8 minutes and it has only 13 eps

Uzaki-chan season 2. Now it's finally getting good. The first season was just as boring as the manga but since the romance is finally picking up, the jokes and such are starting to get more enjoyable. The manga gets better later down the line, so of course the anime gets better too. But it's nice to see this get adaptated in general since the mangaka tried so hard to have it get picked up by a studio to adapt it.

I'm watching... uh naruto... uh i stopped coz is more than 1000 episodes and i think is bad, because don't ends.

I'm gonna try some Stomiks's recommendations

Well, just finished it. 9.5/10. I deducted 0.5 points because the story is a little too rushed that Kanade got too little character development imo.

And also, Yurippe best girl.

Anyway, on topic. Found a random DVD that contained an old-ish anime called Amatsuki... pretty eh...

One of these isekai disguised as time travel. But it was made in 2008 so the plot is more similar to a 2000s action historical anime than your typical isekai.

full AOT rewatch since i forgot most of what happens lmao

LMAOOOO I ed I fucked up my sleep to watch all 3 seasons of AOT before "The Final Season" releases, only to learn that they cut it into multiple parts

FINALLY FINISHED FUMETSU DANGIT.

Good ending for the first season.

Apparently the 2nd season is going to crap so I will maybe read the manga.

The Ice Guy and His Cool Female College.

this anime is wholesome and really cute.

Urusei Yatsura (2022). I personally never watched the original version, but I think it's interesting to see some aspects of the new show have some sort of feel coming from the old era of anime. I heared the IP is a mega hit in Japan, so I took a chance and watched it. It's going pretty good rn, the show is mostly episodic so it's a nice change of pace from all of the abudance of story-driven anime these days.

I'm watching Rent-a-Girlfriend... f*ck me

What a big mistake you've just made.

None at the moment, probably will pick up something from my never ending backlog.

I want to watch all the movies first though, they're all good.
Attack on Titan started up recently, got something to do.

Mushikaburi hime. I actually never watched it despite it being in my currently watching list in my MAL, cause tbh, the plot itself is really boring for me. I just watched episode one but it seems like the pacing was so fast. Like goddamn, a time skip in the first episode? Too fast.

I have been watching Haikyuu!! and I think it is truly a great anime.
Really had some time without watching something with such a likeable cast.

ok i may have seen all of chainsaw man in a day (the first season)

utapri but i forgot to watch the episode

That 2000 year demon academy anime part 2. It honestly should've stopped at the first season. Everyone already acknowledge that the power fantasy MC is very strong so it lost all it's fun now after that. Also idk what happened, the there aren't any episodes getting released at the moment. Maybe some production problems? idk, haven't checked into it.

manga, but catching up on Watashi wo Tabetai, Hitodenashi, started reading it 3 years ago, when only the first 2 volumes were released, din't quite get into it, but now that i'm catching up to all the new stuff that I read some of the secodn volume to , I really enjoy it a lot more now, it's a really good manga

currently watching golden kamuy. it's good so far

BOFURI. I've begun to feel like the anime seems to have a tight budget. With poor animation, a ton of montages, only 1 song is used, etc. It's still pretty fun though, but I'd prefer if the production is better.

Tetsuwan Birdy Decode.

Despite it being made in 2008, the art and the animation quality sures several of the anime released in the 2010s. It also has a nice plot, grweat battle scenes, and it even has furries in it! Bingeable.

Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun is kinda funny lol

Currently halfway through baki the grappler and god damn is it such an entertaining show. This old show might actually be better than the netflix adaptation lol.

Just finished Kantai Collection "Season 2" (binge watched it in a day w) It has more serious tone than the "first season" and a good potential but somehow didn't deliver it
Also there's that one artist who make awesome Shigure art. Go check them out

No that’s someone else and i don’t have my profile anymore soooo im nowhere to be seen 😭

Watcing a fuck ton this season so I express my thoughts on Isekai de Cheat Skill wo Te ni Shita Ore wa, Genjitsu Sekai wo mo Musou Suru: Level Up wa Jinsei wo Kaeta.

The premise... is interesting. For an isekai of course. I don't really like how they're doing things though. MC was a fat ugly man who was mega depressed and they immediately turned him into a hot ikemen body MC. Like what's the point in that? MC never overcame himself organically and worked hard for that body, he just got it because of isekai logic. Now all the women fall for him which yeah that's pretty on par the isekais but the man never did anything to earn it unlike other protags. Seems like they're trying to clean up small threads on the real world so MC could go isekai travelling. But come on, wtf's the point of the real world isekai world plot if you're just gonna abandon one of them for the other? Fucking awful.

Currently Watching Gotoubun no Hanayome and here is my review after 8 episodes:

itsuki>miku>yotsuba=ichika>nino

(seriously all of them are waifu material)

is there a thread about what i've currently read?
if not then, im currently reading neon genesis and it's so hyping good

onimai holy fucking shit I love this anime. The visuals are amazing. It seems like the animators have been given more freedom to express the scenes in their certain way, that's why the animation is much more fluid compared to other anime. It's especially apparent in episode 8, the animation style often changed during scenes and damn it's just an amazing episode in general.

I like the plot too. It doesn't focus on the genderbender aspect but focuses more on the slice of life and what's it's like being a girl. Mahiro isn't an awful MC too. He? may be a neet and anti-social but he makes steady progress as he's continually assisted by his sister. Overall wholesome shit 9/10.

Anyways, here's my in depth review of why all of them are waifu material

Ichika: Onee-san type. Which is not my type but ok

Nino: An aggressive tsundere. Somewhere between Chitoge and Senjougahara. While tsundere best dere, she's a bit too unnecessarily brutal but her doujin is good so there's that

Miku: Everyone's favorite. Full stop. She seems to be the only one who is introverted tho.

Yotsuba: This picture explain it all

And like the real Yuigahama, I think [oregairu spoiler]she has a high chance to become yahallost, like, i don't know why authors love bullying cute airhead girl. But judging by the statistics, I think it's a high chance this would happened

Itsuki: Also a tsundere. But non-aggressive glass-canon type. Which I stand by the above statement that Tsundere best dere. So I put her at the top of the list. But then again, all of them are waifu material in their own rights. Even Nino (who I put last). So this is one of the few shows where I cannot decisively declare who's "Best girl" lol

OK since I finished everything, including the movie, here's my final verdict. A solid 8.5/10 y'all should watch:
Itsuki >= Nino > Yotsuba > Miku >>> Ichika.


(All spoilers are marked accordingly.)

Jigoraku. I have to say this shit is so cool. MAPPA keeps making bangers man. The plot is unique, good characters, and whew the sound track is awesome. I'm really invested in the story despite Gabimaru's wife having a penis scar ruins my immersion from time to time lmao.

I've watched Watamote episode 1 and this is really funny XD

I'll watch the rest later

im currently watching quite a few animes that are releasing this season but some of my favs are oshi no ko and my love story with yamada kun at lv999

Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear Punch!

wow I didn't know what I was expecting from this anime after watching the 1st season. And seemingly enough the show still hasn't changed at all from the 1st. It's still continuing the formulaic slice of life which is, yeah that's the point but I think it'd missed it's potential of having a good balance between slice of life and the power fantasy genre.

just finish the 1h 21min ep of oshi no ko, it was very entertaining

Still watching Watamote (episode 5) and the more I keep watching, the more I become attached to Kuroki... Oh my lord she's so funny when she gets weird LOL

Demon Slayer's Swordsmith Village Arc. Yeah it's the same thing as last time. Not saying that it's bad but it's been pretty much of the same amazing animation and good storytelling that we've seen over these years. I'm really getting more invested in the plot since they've been dropping hints about muzan's past and the mysterious breathing technique that almost killed him. I really don't know how Ufotable could get any better than this since it's already pretty great.

I just finished Watamote and I swear... KUROKI IS SO CUTEEEE 😩😩😩😩

Netflix Baki S2. Finally some semblance of quality. Looks like they god rid of the CGI and Baki actually has importance in the show now! wow!

I usually love tournament arcs so I may be biased but I'm currently enjoying the show. One thing I really liked is how much screentime Yuujiro has now. Usually in every adaptation so far, he's either a side character acting like a teaser for the final boss, or shows up in a flashback scene, so I appreciate him getting more chances to develop his character.

I'll finally start watching The Quintessential Quintuplets. (I'm very scared)

edit: Just watched the episode 1... Holy shit I can already feel the mountain of fan service coming lmao

currently watching Hells Paradise through a request from my irl friend.
tbh the anime is really great ngl i like it so far.

That Ranking of Kings spin-off I forgot the name of. It's not as good as the main series since it's just one off stories put in-between the plot of the main series. But besides that, it's pretty enjoyable. It's nice to get more context to events in the main series and understand more of our characters and motivations. There's also some slice of life elements in there if they're not diving deep into the plot too.

I watched the first two episodes of Mieruko-chan and to be honest, Miko Yotsuya is a freaking warrior.

Hanma Baki: Son of Ogre. At this point I have no hopes of netflix ever making a good baki adaptation. They still fucked up the previous one by cancelling the tournament all together and switching it out with the pointless alai jr. story. I only watched 2 episodes but I have a bad feeling about this. They already used CGI in the first episode so at this point I have low expectations.

Oh my f*cking god I'll never finish Mieruko-chan because of real life stuffs HAHAHAHAHAHA

Romantic Killer. At first glance I thought I wasn't gonna like this show but the way they balance comedy and genuine romance is actually really entertaining. The characters are well made and they're all fun to watch.

Mashiro no Oto. It's about a high school student trying to find his "sound" with the shamisen. I love listening to the performances in each episode and the visuals accompanying it really makes you feel the song alongside the characters. It's a great show currently.

I'm watching Jojo's Bizarre Adventure (I'm on part 3) and I think it's really good. Part 2 is my favorite so far.

Pop team epic. It's actually nice I can understand some of the references since most of it is based on japanese pop culture. Good thing I've been watching JP media since I wouldn't laugh as hard if I didn't

currently watching "nothing". its pretty great for now

Listeners is fucking awful. I'm only a few episodes in and I'm already feeling really bored with watching it. It's an anime based on music but features none at all? wtf's the point of the music aspect then? The plot is bad, failed worldbuilding, it's too fast pace, we change a cast of characters each episode so we wouldn't get attached to them other than the 2 horribly written protagonists, and what's with this animation?! For an anime like this coming from MAPPA really makes me think they didn't put any care at all into this show being good and focused on the bigger and better ones.
