Tomorrow, April 3rd 2019, is the 10 year anniversary of my favourite anime of all time. I love k-on and it's time for us to come together and celebrate the pinnacle of the slice of life genre. Trying to write about k-on without saying "it's an adaption of a manga time kirara 4-koma" is tricky because that is what it is, but back in 2009 that wasn't a description of at least one anime a season. It's animated by kyoani and kinda started a style they used for a few subsequent shows. I feel like k-on was important for the evolution of the slice of life genre over the last decade and still holds up well today. It spawned games, countless CDs, a movie, it was huge. It's not just a show where nothing happens, characters develop and grow over the course of 37 episodes + movie that we're going to collectively re-experience. For those of you who want the premise Lemon-Lime posted:It's an easy going slice of life show about a bunch of highschoolers who form a band, only they spend most of their time eating cake So how this'll work is that to avoid anime burn out we're going to watch 2 episodes twice per week - this will be at midnight GMT (7PM EST) on Saturday night (Sunday morning) and Wednesday night (Thursday morning). We're starting this this weekend! I hope that makes sense. Although there's no real spoilers in K-ON I'd appreciate the usual simulwatch rules of not talking about what we haven't seen yet, so that people who are experiencing this for the first time can react organically.  More stuff will be added to the op later (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Beato Believer posted:For the pedantic amongst us, the time is midnight GMT (7PM EST) on Saturday and midnight GMT (7PM EST) on Wednesday, correct? Yes, Americans will be watching at 7PM EST on Saturday and Wednesday. Sorry I have to sacrifice West coasters to my timezone. We start this weekend with season 1 episodes 1 and 2

StandardVC10 posted:So did Namtab miss his own simulwatch again? (I mean, I did too, but I was out of the house all day. Going to catch up tonight.) Yeah I totally did and there's only one thing to do. Wark, for every instance of the simulwatch I miss (barring this coming Saturday cause I genuinely can't make it) probate me for 3 days. Beat it into my thick skull that sleep is for the weak.
