SyntheticPolygon posted:It's hosed up the anime probably won't get to the best in-universe show unless they do a season 2. True, but from what I'm seeing here and elsewhere, it's doing well enough that a Season 2 is very likely. And yes, I can't wait to see that part of the story animated. In other developments, never skimp on the chocolate you make your monsters out of, lest you end up in Chocolate Boot Camp.

Poor Melty, she just wanted to fight Blader but she's contaminated and we can't have that, even for monsters that are seriously less than 50% chocolate.

It's worth noting that Marin really does just talk like that. If anything, she uses even more slang and internet speak and stuff in the Japanese.

From what people are saying, the keysmash subs are actually written to correspond to the sounds coming out of her mouth as well.

The dub for Dress-Up Darling continues to be excellent as well. The Gojo actor is phenomenal.

FilthyImp posted:I was being flippant with the post up there, but I really do want to credit the translation team there for giving Marin a very distinct "voice". There's almost a codeswitch type thing when she goes full Otaku that's fun. Yeah, for example, she generally was polite when directly addressing Gojou's grandfather (including this  , which is the only real "wrong" translation I noticed), but instantly switches when talking to Gojou

Sadly she lost half her power as soon as Valentine's day was over. But at least Blader finally got some chocolate out of the deal! The Black Stones posted:I thought Dress up Darling had one of its best episodes. It’s moved past the “I’m awkward because it’s a irl g-g-girl” phase and is now really getting into a “these people are awkward for fun reasons.” Like, yeah he still gets flustered she now does it back and it’s more on personal levels and that the show is doing a great job really showing how their relationship has changed. The whole situation with him in her house was great. I definitely think a big part of what makes this show work is how it decreases the emphasis on Gojo being awkward because Marin's a girl and increases the emphasis on Marin being awkward because she's crushing hard. It creates a nice balance where you still get a good amount of (understandable) awkwardness without it feeling like it's beating a dead horse.

Also I noticed that Marin spent most of the time shown during their house data looking at Gojo. It was a good touch.

I really wish horny anime would start putting the characters in college instead of high school. It's not like american/western media never sexualizes teenagers but that does not make it better when "fully nude high schoolers" gets a "yeah I expected as much" and "you should have seen this coming after episodes 2 and 5" for random anime people enjoy #8 this season

FilthyImp posted:Yeah. I've been mulling over this disconnect for a bit, but I ain't the one to post that thread or drive that discussion. As a westerner it's surprising when something as relatively low-key as Akebi's Sailor has the middle schooler bathing with the 6 year old. Real fine line between "I'm confronting my own cultural biases" and "this is normalizing something that's uncomfortable".

Stink Billyums posted:I'm enjoying Giant Titty Vampire Academy but am somewhat put off by the excessive titties. To be clear it is not the titties that are the problem, but the high school that's the problem The Colonel posted:i think we should start a change.orrg rpetition to fix japanese culture so there's no more weird fanservice in anime. we've let this go on long enough Much like when there are other problems in a show (be they with the visual direction, voice acting/sound design, or writing) just because we can not affect change does not mean we can't complain or potentially discuss a problem here, in the something awful subforum dedicated to talking about anime. Personally, when I hear about an anime or am considering watching an anime, it makes me feel incredibly gross every time I have to ask myself "what exactly is my tolerance level for underaged sexualization?" This is not a question I must ask myself exclusively for anime (I've recently gotten into watching riverdale which has certainly brought the question up), but it comes up waaaaay more often, and seeing that tossed around casually seems like the point where it's worth bringing up in conversation. I'm not of the belief that watching anime or posting in adtrw makes someone a pedophile, but part of that is we really shouldn't just brush this kind of thing under the rug when it comes up. At the same time, hopefully everyone here is aware that sexualizing high schoolers is gross (maybe I'll get some flack for this but imo, that includes if their character bio has the number 18 next to their age instead of 17 if it's still in a high school centric setting). Self flagellating over it every time wouldn't be a fun atmosphere to post in either, but I have no idea where the middle ground is that acknowledges this and doesn't normalize it while also treating everyone involved like adults who are aware of the content of their shows. I just know I've not been the most fond of how it's handled here, which admittedly is way better than other internet discussion forums.
