I genuinely felt physically tired after watching the first two seasons with literally no breaks in between episodes.
And at ~1.25x speed.
Results may vary.

It's paced like a Marx brothers comedy, where jokes and lines just lead into more jokes and lines and then sometimes those jokes come back around before the end of the two minute runtime.

The unrelenting school of comedy.

That's how you end up in a false sense of security. The Kill Me Baby guys never got around to stealing that one kid near their studio's lunch money to fund season 2.

I'll be watching Attorneys, Jojos, and Heroes for sure. Maybe check out some other stuff.


Also, news:

The live-action Ghost in the Shell has cast legendary Japanese actor/director Beat Takeshi as Aramaki.

Personally I think a western adaptation should have John Hurt as Aramaki.




Also nth'ing that the Dreamworks adaptation has gently caress-all chance of being good.

Going back to Winter for a moment, this is your regular scheduled reminder that you should be watching Shows Genroku Rakugo Shinju, because it is the best show currently airing.

Seriously, even better than that one.

I think my favorite thing about Galko is that she's always prepared and takes care of everyone in class when they're in need of something.

I need that level of preparedness.

If that's what it takes for more Cobra, I'm game

I'm looking forward to more of that futuristic violent baseball

Kind of an odd thing to revisit, though. Throughout that entire arc Cobra was just dicking around and he was still the best murder baseball player who ever lived.

"You had best not do that, Avatar!"
They really must love that arc too much, since by using it as inspiration they're raising expectations even among their own local Cobra fans.

Side note: I didn't find the previous Cobra revivals to be unenjoyable, but the property did lose a lot of its style after the death of Osamu Dezaki.

Pachinko stuff has like five minutes of actual animation so it's going to look better than a TV series.
Man, watching Shitobako has me wondering how any TV anime gets produced at all
