      I think she's a cool character but what annoys me is how easily manipulated she is, like she keeps saying that she wants to do what she wants but then also constantly changes her opinion of what she wants, sometimes blowing up in the face of people who are trying to support her.

    I LOVED Blue Eye Samurai. Fowler's chat with God was just evil, but i loved. He's actually kinda charming (still very evil tho). My favorite episodes are 4 and 7 (i hear that episode 5 is a community favorite, but that one got spoiled so much). Mizu trying to regain Ringo's trust and her confessing to Taigen having the complete opposite effect. I really liked Akemi's arc this episode. How Akemi takes the situation she failed to fix and learns to live with her marriage (her husband is actually a nice guy) and use it as an asset, just like Seki had told her (it only took Madame Kaji for her to understand it tho, which is a nice touch). EASILY, the stuff with Kinuyo hurt me more than anything else in the show. The twist with her was SO shocking, and I hated Mizu for doing it, but you can clearly tell she hated doing it too. Akemi pretending to be a prostitute was also really fun/funny. Taigen being an egotistical a-hole was hilarious at several moments, but Ringo... Ringo was the most adorable character I've ever seen, maybe ever. I cannot express enough how good this show is. It's even better than Arcane at times (arcane never struck me as funny. BES can be EXTREMELY funny when it wants to)

    No one expcted that bait and switch in Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, but I'm so glad they did it instead of retreading the same story. One thing I really loved was how much Ramona got to do, and how much character development she got. Realizing how she screwed over her exs in the past, learning from her mistakes, and even making ammends.
    Also, Netflix better not cancel Blue Eyed Samurai before it's story can get a proper conclusion. Not nearly enough people are talking about it. It's undoubtedly the best animated show we got this year. Great story and characters, stunning animation, and some of the best fight choreography I've ever seen.

    You're absolutely right to have the Tom/Shiv balcony fight as ranked as high as it is because of the context of the show, but for people who have been in toxic relationships where things just bubble up and come to the surface in one big fight where you just don't hold back and spew every grudge, every resentment, every weapon you have at your partner .. it really hits close to home. I've watched that fight scene so many fucking times just because of how hard it hits, I've never seen a show nail it like that before. It's therapeutic, in a way.

The backgrounds are the best i’ve ever seen in a show, story is concise yet profound, and the animation is just gorgeous. It’s set on alien planet and exploring its wild ecosystem. The biology is thought out with such nuance. Every alien food chain, pollination method is thought about in such alien beautiful ways.

To me, i just liked how each character was fleshed out, except the Keely shit, but i pretty much got connected with every character, which made it more painful when Ted left and went back to the US, which you understand, but i love the fact you can see the impact Ted left on everyones lives. The only complaints i really had was Keely and Nate, nate less so, but yeah. I liked the season overall, definitely the weakest, but i still liked it.

    In terms of other anime you missed this year, Pluto was a big one. That show’s phenomenal, not enough people talking about that one. Vinland Saga season 2 was probably my favorite show of the year. Like, I liked Season 1, but season 2 just filled me with such profound emotions across the spectrum, which was a real shock to me since it’s a particularly slow burn and usually shows like that aren’t my thing. Also watch Frieren. It’s still airing, so maybe it doesn’t count as a 2033 show, but yeah I’ve just never seen anything quite like it.

      @@Ben-yj9wz It’s an adaptation of a manga by Naoki Urasawa, creator of Monster and other great manga. It’s a reimagining of an arc from Astro Boy, with the perspective shifted primarily to robot detective Gesicht. The series has an overall more grounded and mature tone, with the focus being moreso on the murder mystery aspect of the story rather than the original’s focus on big dumb action. This sounds silly, like “oh what if we took this cartoony series for kids and made it dark and edgy” but trust me it ain’t like that. It’s a genuinely gripping mystery, with things to say about ptsd and the nature of humanity and shit. What’s funny is that the anime keeps Astro Boy’s original Japanese name “Atom,” so if you only have a passing familiarity with the series you could have no idea it’s related to Astro Boy at all.

    22:23 That is kind of what the Twisted Tales books do, where they take the original movie, and make a change that radically changes the course of the story.
    Like what if Jafar actually got the lamp, became Sultan, and Aladdin and Jasmine lead a revolution to stop him?
    Or what if Rapunzel was given the power to hurt instead of heal? And Rapunzels parents had to willingly surrender her to Gothel?
    Or what if Meg had to become a true hero to be with Hercules? And that quest involved confronting her past to save her former lover’s new wife?

      That kind of approach can definitely pay off if the end product is good.
      But oh boy is it risky and angers a lot of fans who just want a faithful retread.
      I think another currently relevant example is the Final Fantasy 7 Remake and its sequel coming out.
      It's yet to be determined how good or bad the end product will be. But so far, it's fine and interesting to change things up.
      But wow, it's controversial. Some fans like it, and others HATE it.

      @SenpaiSamaKun 3 місяці тому +19

      It is a retread of the same KIND of story that invalidates the comic's story if you turn your brain on, and don't get gaslit by a single post-production interview.
      Like ok, what if you got over the surprise? Then it's just Ramona going through an alternate version of Scott's arc. Ramona having an actual talk with the exes didn't require Scott being gone. And then it ruins Scott's future entirely saying he learned absolutely nothing about being a wayward manchild, Ramona keeps running away from the first problem in her relationship, and they keep separating.
      So now current Scott is just some random puppy boy Ramona is obsessed over who learned how not to be a bad guy through the cheat of literally seeing his own future. Like Ramona is criticized as a manic pixie girl in the movie. And Older Scott is just Nega Scott 2 but lamer, requires less development, can be beaten with power, and still has a sad ending where he needs to be fixed, not fix himself.
      The individual scenes were very nice though, like the bread makes you fat musical, Knives actually becoming friends with the band, Young Neil Jobs, Gay Failure Todd>>>>>> Vegan Todd, etc.

    I recently watched I'm in Love with the Villainess and subsequently read the manga and I was pleasantly surprised by it. It's such a breath of fresh air for an anime to be so direct about it's LGBTQ+ representation. I specifically really respected the scene where Misha asks if Rae is gay, Lene implies that gender doesn't matter and it just so happened that the person Rae fell in love was a woman, and Rae shuts that down immediately, explaining that while gender doesn't matter in some regards, she would not be able to fall in love with a man. I really recommend that anyone who enjoys the show read the manga as well, although it's mostly the same as the anime, there are a few new sections that really smooth the progression of Rae and Claire's relationship, there's a little bit of extra attention to some underdeveloped characters, and the story is obviously further along. Mild spoilers, although I'll keep things vague, but it's currently it's in the middle of a very interesting storyline that follows a character who has gender dysphoria, which is another thing I am so glad to see an anime directly address.

Fast-forward to sometime around 2023 and I remember the series and come back to see an anime. It was such a cool thing for me. I've read up to the 3rd book. I've only read 2 of the manga. I have also read "She's So Cheeky for a Commoner," told from Claire's (and other characters') perspectives. If someone is really into the show, manga, or light novels, I'd recommend them. I really hope the show gets a season 2, the whole thing is pretty great. It's amazing getting to see others find out about the anime and get into the thing as a whole. Very cool!

Any publicity that might ensure its continuation would be a huge service to me specifically, but also the numerous other fans who wish to see another season (not to mention the talented individuals who are clearly creating it from a source of passion). I am, as are others, severely worried as to the prospect of its cancellation, and I can only try to vie for more to acknowledge its existence.

Especially with the mystery of who their dad was. It was fun to see the character growth and the takes on the idol but also the acting industry were very nuanced for being set in japan. Also the exploration of the Ai’s charavter throughout the show and her learning what love is really BROUGHT ME TO TEARS. Especially in the case of her fake attitude towards her fans that came from a good intent nonthless. This show’s character more specifically Ai, Aqua, Kana and Akane were done SO WELL as the series progressed.

Honestly people should just play the game. It's way more impactful as a game rather than an anime and the game is FAR from being difficult or inaccessible like something like Elden Ring. The game only gets really grindy if you go for 100% and even then it's one of the easiest action games to 100%. Edit: Also the game is on everything so there's no excuse.

      @@KrimsonKattYT Well yes the Anime was delayed for a while and the release was a nightmare. Currently Cour 1 is over which covers the plot of Route’s A and B. The second cour may come out further in the future. As for animation being bad… its not terrible, but CGI is a bit dodgy especially in the early episodes. But if you’ve seen other animes… this is really a nothing compliant considering Japan has weaker CGI compared to America.
      Although the game is most probably the superior version, I really enjoy the fact that an anime/alternate version exists. Even if it is harder to access… its there for people who aren’t good at Action Games

    I think the first season of [Oshi No Ko] doesn't do the series justice for anime only viewers. The arc that starts right after season one is a very strong arc. It gives us a lot of interesting character exploration and character dynamics. The past life and reincarnation concept is a very essential part of the story and will be used more later in the series.
    As for the "questionable age gap" the story explained that Aqua as a person has been heavily affected by biological factors such as hormones. He views himself as a different person from his past life. Ruby on the other hand, views herself as the same person as her past life.

      That just sounds like manga reader cope if I'm being honest. I imagine people who where disappointed by the anime would be just as disappointed with the manga if it takes that long to get better. Also, I don't think a person not viewing themselves as an adult despite being an adult is much of a defense. From what I saw of the show before dropping it, he was certainly not "a different person".

Also, genuine question to someone who's caught up with it, what was up with the whole incest controversy/meme? I remember seeing a whole bunch of thumbnails and posts about how the author was going to pair up the main characters around the time I decided to give the anime a shot but never bothered looking into what the whole thing was about.

      ​@AdBlock-xl3tt I assume it's because the siblings had a weird somewhat romantic relationship in their past lives. and that she was 13 or whatever and iirc monologued that he was her first love. and that it's heavily implied he was a pedophile (but not necessarily an abuser). IDK that's what weirds me out about the show at least.

      @Ammiteur9 oh oki oki- so basically yk how the doctor promised the girl who got him into idols they would get married if she recovered? Basically Ruby remebers the doctor saying that after aqua reveals he was the doctor.
      That and aqua and the doctor are also kinda diferent characters- the doctor is a mental thing in aquas head which is constantly telling him how much of a piece of shit he is BECAUSE he use to be the doctor-
      So basically aqua is also aware of the age gap and hates himself for it. He often has panic attacks over his identity because of it.

      @@pandabottomtext3290 Thank you very much.
      I knew most of this through UA-cam videos, like watching current updates of the Manga, but I couldn't find much about the sepperation of Aqua and the Doctor, which was like my hope that they acknowledged the imo pretty tragic relationship between the twins and Ai/ their general Family dynamic.
      Not that Ai died, that's tragic as well, but when you think about it, their relationship was never truthful because her children loved Ai more as her fans, than as their actual children, which makes me really sad for Ai. This is all based on the knowledge I got from the anime/ the bits and pieces I know from youtube, so I hope that the twins seeing themselves more as Ai's children or sepperating themselves from their past will be touched on more in the second season, since that's the arc I know the least about I think.
      The marriage thing seems pretty bad to me either way, I'm glad they seemingly were just trolling with that.
      Still, even with your explanation, I overall think they didn't really need the reincarnation/ weird age gap plotline, but I think as the Manga reaches it's conclusion, the reason for it will become clearer to me.
      (Though I guess the identity reveal caused Ruby to trust Aqua again, so in that sense it was useful...)

    Flabbergasted at the lack of Frieren and One Piece Live Action here! My parents (who don't get anime at all) went absolutely bonkers for One Piece, and Frieren is both an old-school fantasy of the Tolkienian type and at the same time feels incredibly fresh and new. We haven't had fantasy of this quality since... hell, Full Metal Alchemist, maybe? The Lord of the Rings? Frieren is just impossibly good.

    While talking about Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, you mentioned the idea of a show initially being presented as a reboot of sorts, then throwing a curveball to the audience and branching out (what a lot of people like to call 'meta-sequels').
    One show that I HIGHLY recommend that is within this same vein is SSSS.Gridman, a 2018 anime from Studio Trigger, the studio you may know from Little Witch Academia among other properties.
    The show is a revival of a 1993 Tokusatsu series known as Hyper Agent Gridman, and initially presents itself as a completely disconnected story with new characters, the only commonality being the titular hero Gridman, a similar setup, and the monster-of-the-week format. However, the show eventually diverts from this formula and there are a bunch of insane twists, and a huge standout character is the main villain.
    It's a perfectly great standalone story and you don't need to watch the '93 show to understand, but viewing it either before or afterwards can really heighten your appreciation of both.
    The only word of caution I have is that the main protagonist is a bit bland, but his character gets a lot more development in Gridman Universe, the movie sequel to this and the companion series, SSSS.Dynazenon, both of which I also highly recommend.
    You probably won't see this, but in the case you do, thanks for taking the time to read!
