if you're going to yell about how a show is weird or bad or reprehensible, you're not allowed to do it vaguely be explicit so there's actually some use for the uninitiated

i tried to watch s1 from the start as it aired and couldn't get over the hump i think i ended up just watching both full seasons back to back and didn't have any complaints then, aside from the insert songs

a kitten posted:I'm unsure of their exclusivity deal's status now since Promised Neverland is noitamina and it was on Crunchyroll huh, that's weird. it still has a few days to air either way and these announcements can come pretty close to the wire so i'm still hoping for a license somewhere

it's a shoujo twenty years removed from its cultural context. definitely has the familiar feel of 90's anime despite the modern production quality though.

i think the early cg snow was a bit obtrusive but then you have that bit where cg tanjiro vaults over a log and i was like "wow, this is good actually" also the koto thing not having music immediately seems like a very small thing to be so hung up on lol. the show has like 11-12 more episodes to get to it

Everything Burrito posted:Is funimation stuff only streaming through their own service? guess I can mark Fairy Gone off my list for now. they have some sort of partnership with hulu, but i dunno if that means everything will show up there. also, the whole thing of hulu having ads is eh

boredsatellite posted:Oh I do know that I'm being a pedantic gently caress about it. Let's say I'm just too worried about this adaptation doing justice to the manga when put in the context of a manga reader i understand it a bit more tbf, it just seemed like people were complaining apropos of nothing because the premise wasn't immediately fulfilled.

Endorph posted:i mean it makes sense to have some taste of what the anime's gonna be about even if it's just a brief 30 second scene or something, or even it being used in the OP/ED or BGM or something. Like you don't need to dedicate a ton of time to it, but there's a reason why even slower-paced sports shows have a scene of the character watching the sport on tv or something in the first episode. Not having it at all in the first episode just tells the viewer that it isn't a priority or it isnt what the show is about. This can work with something where the base premise is some kind of twist, like Steins;Gate or something, but when its just dudes hanging out playing an instrument it sets the viewer's expectations oddly. Like imagine if Rakugo didn't have actual Rakugo in its first episode. it's def not structured like your typical club anime but the act of playing koto is pretty well centered in the show itself as well as the op/ed, even though you don't hear the music. i don't think it's at all a case of the show not caring about the instrument, but it cares more about establishing its characters and their relationship to the instrument than the act of them playing or having the music, and that's probably the expectation people should have based on the first episode. notably it has characters with pre-existing relationships to the koto (which are rather excessively detailed in the ep) so there's not really an opportunity for the expected scene of seeing [activity] and that reigniting a character's passion or motivating them to try it out. i don't think it was a flawless episode by any means but the only occasions where the koto is played are called out as bad or done by total newbies, so the lack of actual music did not surprise me and is probably better than if they led with awful music.

idk, the anime is based more off of the murata redraw than ONE's original comic, and the former definitely has an issue with overindulgence in gorgeous action setpieces that has resulted in it being padded to hell with a sporadic release schedule. this issue wasn't really present in the first season material but we'll see how it's handled in the second.

robihachi was one i wrote off based on a cheap-looking pv but the premiere was lowkey really good. color palette feels a bit off and i don't really like the villain designs but there's a lot of subtle touches to the animation that made it feel way smoother than i thought and the pacing was great. jokes and comedic premise seem solid, i don't really care about robby but the rabbit and hatchi are great. no idea where it'll go though

even just as a show, it's a premiere ep of a(n ikuhara) thing so it's a visual spectacle. since i haven't seen any of the hot takes i'm able to be this generous to the reaction i suppose

InspectorCarbonara posted:What's the deal with Crunchyroll getting shows that were exclusive to another service a few weeks after they started airing? well if any show you want is on Hidive you can probably wait since they've got a partnership with VRV or Crunchyroll or...something, anyway their shows should end up in the same place most of the time. Funimation stuff is weirder because their partnership did end with CR yet they've been moving shows over to CR in the past couple weeks so who knows.

they had like 25% of kimetsu's first season banked months before it aired so i'm not terribly worried about any consequences of an investigation that probably won't mean a work stoppage or anything for the animation side

bungo is good but also it seems like s3's first half is gonna focus on characters named after Rimbaud and Paul Verlaine, who are ambiguously partners in the show but were lovers irl so I'm excited to see what they do in an already fujo show

Grouchio posted:I have a bad feeling that the Summer Season's going to be as dry as this current one. Jojo will have ended, leaving Kimetsu. So we get...Dr Stone, the Fireman anime, Detective Waver (El Meliol), Accelerator and Vinland Saga....nothing else. you listed five shows, imo that's a pretty respectable showing for a season! keeping up with many more than that often ends up a hassle imo

the eupho stuff is kinda complex to me because like, i get wanting the gay rep and relationship to just be in the thing and be confirmed/front and center. i do also think there's value in having characters just be exploring relationships and sexuality in a way that results in stuff like kumireina coming and going, asukumi in s2 (and also the other couple from the first arc), and even a potential kumiko/shuichi thing. at the end of the day you've still had these intense and significant relationships between characters that matter to them even if they don't fall into traditional long-term relationship or happily ever after molds. if you wanna get reductive about it you still end up with kumiko at least being bi. kind of independent of that though, the sort of lame shuichi jokes just feel like they come from a place of dissatisfaction that eupho didn't follow the expectations and discourse set up way back in season 1 when we were all so awestruck at kumireina and i just wish people would let the show just kinda, be a show instead of a target for those expectations.

actually i guess the thing i was trying to hit at about the jokes was, they seem to come from a place mad about "kumiko/shuichi happens" and not addressing or caring about any of the context of that but since we haven't even seen the material adapted yet and i doubt most people have read the books, i guess its more understandable that the overall discourse level would still be at a low hum of hating that plot development, esp. with how it relates to wider media trends.

something about him dating kumiko in the final book, and also the finale movie had a key visual that was just kumiko and shuichi fistbumping
