Despite being somewhat timid and weak I like how wholly appropriate it is for the red dragon to be quite good at laying down sick burns.

I don't know how Slime Diaries came out as a full-length 23-minute episode show. I don't necessarily mind, but it's not what I would have remotely expected of this sort of thing.

My favorite moment in Odd Taxi was the twitter guy mentioning foreigners tweeting about gender issues in Japan. That's what I call gritty and realistic dialog. Saint's Magic Power has much more interesting visual direction than your average isekai. Sindai fucked around with this message at 01:38 on Apr 7, 2021 |

I've come to realize that isekai manga adaptations move at a snail's pace compared to their WN or LN versions, so usually the anime version ends up speeding past manga versions as was seen with spider.

Also in general I think I prefer the ones where they're summoned and are just, the same person and they didn't die vs the reincarnated ones.

Having watched Episode 2 of both Mars Red and Jouran, my preferences are starting to flip, and I'm starting to like the latter over the former. Mars Red Ep2's direction isn't as standout as Ep1's, and they're starting to settle into a cliched cool-guys team routine. Whereas Jouran is directly building up towards a conflict amongst the cool-guys team, the writing is becoming more solid and less cliched, when you have an interesting side character with a good personality explain to the central conflict of the show before they are forced to leave the plot.

I actually wasn't sure if it was this one or the other double saintess summoning one where the unwanted MC gets runoff into the woods and befriends all the spirits and a dragon I think? Maybe she becomes a cat? I don't quite remember it had like 3 chapters released. There is I notice an interesting thing in at least isekai but maybe it happens in other subgenres where you'll have multiple releases with extremely similar "set ups" but the actual "genre" (suspense, action, comedy, marketed to seinen or shonen, etc) are all different from each other. Example: The Eliza Villainness series and Bakarina, Bakarina is more of a reverse harem josei romantic comedy set in a isekai based off of a popular Visual Novel where Kat is trying to avoid the bad end. Eliza is also the villainness who ends up in the same role in a world based off of a visual novel where her character has a Bad End but she poisons her family right off the bat and spends the entire series with Kumoko levels of paranoia trying to avoid that ending; so its a more serious series with some reverse harem romantic elements but the politics/drama is more center stage. (I wish Eliza had proper English releases, the translator who was manually translating it stopped and a blog that mainly does slightly corrected Machine Translations took over after that and it hasn't been the same).

I wanted to like Saint’s Power. The premise makes it sound like a sort of Isekai Atelier, which has a lot of potential. This episode was a little weird, though, especially in the pacing. It’s like we got the first five minutes of episode 1 and then it skipped right into episode 2. I feel like there should have been a few more scenes of Sei getting rejected in favor of the other girl and growing increasing annoyed, setting up her decision to go off and do her own thing. Like maybe she could have asked one of the royal mages about magic but he says “I don’t have time for this, I’m busy tutoring the real saint”, or something to that effect. Instead it comes across like the only one showing favoritism was the prince and everyone else was cool with having two saints.

https://twitter.com/WTK/status/1379849655253495813 tubi is free (with ads) afaik Super Cub had a nice, understated first episode. Surprisingly so coming from an LN adaptation; you could've fairly easily removed what dialogue there is and turned it into a standalone silent short. Remains to be seen how it holds up both as a production (it's very slight from the outstart) and as it introduces a wider cast, but I've heard reasonably nice things about the novels.

Full Dive had a pretty dark and amusing twist. If it keeps that tone it could be pretty great. Judging from the ED it doesn't though. Super Cub's color saturation manipulation was pretty neat. Sindai fucked around with this message at 20:10 on Apr 7, 2021 |

I wasn't expecting much from Full Dive but surprisingly "What if a VR MMO, but in hardcore realism mode" is actually a pretty comically ripe concept, and hearing it's from the Shinchou Yuusha author gives me hopes it should be able to manage at least a single cours worth of amusement
