I'm loving Devilman Crybaby but the whole "you can tell who is a demon by who is dissatisfied with the world!" scene is so stupid.

Please consider that [ending spoilers]It's literally Satan saying this. Then think about how protesters and other dissidents are treated irl.

Yeah I typed that out after the end of episode 8 The series is pretty good, but it gets pretty sloppy toward the end.

It's a good show. I can't relate to it because I only hate my job like 5 days out of the whole year.

Little Witch Academia is-- along with Yuru Camp and A Place Further than the Universe-- in my highly biased and incredibly arrogant-rear end opinion, the best thing that happened to anime in recent times.

It saved anime, manga, light novels, my heart, my soul, my wallet, waifus, husbandos, mechas, cuties and I will cherish it for a long-rear end time.

Grind, you poor fool!
Grind straight for the stars!
As a 25 year old in a menial office job where the management treats you like an errand dog I can confirm Aggretsuko nails it.

Has anyone watched that Godzilla anime on Netflix? It takes a while to get to the point but the premise and action were enough to keep me entertained. That and the sequel's potential.

A question I have about Aggretsko is the whole thing about how Retsko's boyfriend comes home to a poo poo ton of plants. Is this suppose to show that there's "more than meets the eye with this guy" or is it suppose to show that he's creepy?

It's less that he's creepy and more than he's just "not there" for other people, like he doesn't know what's up. It's what they call "Can't read the mood" / 「空気を読ない」(Kuuki wo yomenai) in Japanese culture. So, since he can see what's up with the plants, he's able to take care of them accordingly. Or at least that's my theory. My experience with people like that comes from having a couple of friends who are just like that; this side of the pacific I have mainly two buddies who are sorta like that, one it's his guitars and the other one with his gadgets/computers. The latter almost eerily reminds me of Resasuke, but slightly older. It's like the one thing they can see that there might be something wrong and they take utmost care of it.

I think it's more to show he really doesn't have that much in common with her, hobby wise.

One thing to note about the show (which owns) is that it's actually sympathetic to pretty much everyone in it. Even the openly horrible people are still people.

I thought the pacing at the end was extremely weird but apparently it was an intentional decision to show how vicious the news cycle + social media can be and how small things snowball into witch hunts (literal in this case)

and I mean, it's a BIT extreme that all of Humanity destroys itself cuz of facebook but it's an interesting take on an old story

Aggretsuko is great
I don't identify with it personally but I really like the juxtaposition of hello kitty designs + my life is hard and it's nice to see a show that isn't like, haha work is wacky

I dunno what it was about this scene but it was the saddest part of the show

I think Netflix has released the best anime in 2018

In This Corner of the World is a really nice movie on American Netflix, I'd give it an 8/10. Note that I haven't watched the majority of the classics, though.

it was weird because all of the advertising I saw for it billed it as primarily a love story and uh it definitely wasn't that

it's hard to say whether I enjoyed it per se because it does have it's moments but also get incredibly heavy at times. I do agree that its a good movie though

The Demogorgon is tired of your silly human bickering!

Man Netflix has burned me on anime three times, removing Spice & Wolf season 1, Darker than Black and Red Data Girl while I was in the middle of them. Sure it was taking me literal years to get through them, but it should be like your steam library, there for you if you started them even if they have to hide it from the new customers due to silly things like licenses.

Seriously though I had like 5 eps to go on DTB but apparently started the series the week they were removing it. Bleh. Looks like it is on prime now, just gotta figure out where I left off and if its worth going back to.

Steam library is more comparable to a DTO service like iTunes or Google Play. Even if they stop selling something you can still recover it because you bought it to own.

Don't know when it happened but Amazon has the horrendous fist of the north star movie dub. It also added the 94 street fighter 2 movie (unedited) and Saturday morning anime classes L.I.L.Y. Cat. Which is amazing.

It's incredible. I'm watching it now, it kind of captures the glory of 80s 90s dubbing.

There's weird quality edits and closeups during the extreme violence, was that a dub edit thing or is that part of the original?
