What are you currently watching? We have a current video game thread but not one for anime. Doesn't need to be BL, just blog about what you're in the middle of.

Any random ships? Cute guys?

I'm watching Amagi Brilliant Park, weird show didn't realize it was Kyoani. Main boy is cute but we'll see if there is anybody to actually pair him with.

I watched the first two episodes of bakemonogatari today. Who was gonna tell me this shit was that good? I mean, I knew of one person who discussed it quite well, but I've been flooded so much by the memetic parts of it, I didn't think it would have much emotional affect on me!

For dealing with the supernatural, it feels like a wonderfully grounded depiction of sexual assault/rape and its shrapnel in the other relationships in your life. I'm very excited to watch the rest of it!!!

Also I the non-animated parted. The parts with the photos and stuff. Those "edited like monogatari" videos. The parts like that in the show also feel just as "armature-ish". I didn't expect that lol. Not that it's a bad thing though!

I fucking love Monogatari, but I also love everything Akiyuki Shinbo has ever done after watching SZS all those years ago so I'm bias. If you like the directing style in it check out Maria Holic or Hidamari Sketch for similar feeling Shaft works.

I will say I think Monogatari starts really strong with Bake and Nise but some of the later parts are more varying in quality. Also don't be fooled by any of those "Watch Order" guides, release order is the best with the exception of possibly placing Kizu after Bake since the that is the way the novels were released.

>>6908
It is very fanservice heavy, some of it adds to the show and characterization and some of it doesn't. I really couldn't care less about how much lolibait or huge knockers are in a show since I've been watching harems for years, but if it bothers you I can't really recommend the series since it is an overwhelming part of it. There is a good character-focused drama in there though if you're more neutral on it.

Really the saddest thing about the show being so female-dominated is the fact that Araragi has almost no shipping material out there despite being a cutie voiced by Kamiya Hiroshi. Some people pair him with Oshino Meme but imo that's yaoi for yaoi's sake and the two don't have much romantic chemistry.

I don't always multiship but I'm starting to understand why Isagi is the Blue lock fandom bicycle. I was initially invested in Isagi/Bachira but this under 20 arc is baiting him with Rin pretty hard and from what I've seen the anime even cut out lines that made it more blatant.

Understandable!

I think if those are aspects you truly can't over look it, you won't enjoy it, but if you can watch with indifference towards those elements at least, you may find something enjoyable!

I'm a person that's very immune to nudity and sexuality in general, so I have hard time gauging what others will find acceptable lol.

I would say, give it a try if you can! I think I will report back a keep watching.


>>6911
Yess, I love SZS as well! And plan to watch Hidamari sketch in the future, it looks so cute TT

I never understood the watch order stuff. If they directed things in that order, and most people were able to watch it in the order as it was airing and understand it, why wouldn't that be good enough?

I find Araragi pleasing so far!

It was the other way around for me. I saw a lot of screenshots that seemed interesting as fuck but it turned out to be too waifu and geek focused to me.
Tried watching it three times and always gave up during episode 3 I think where the whole episode was just (for me) boring discussion involving anime tropes. I always wanted to get into it since some of the later parts seemed interesting but nothing about the first few episodes was really exciting IMO and three killed me so I gave up.

A friend I have had the same issue with Crest of the Stars though and THAT is something I rated pretty high and the political discussions genuinely interested me.
That said I miss political sci-fi and space shit. I tried G Witch but that was unwatchable as well IMO kek

I don't either. We all know to point and laugh when Mother's Basement or some shitty youtuber puts out a video suggesting watching Jojo parts out of order, but then those same people will turn around and make weird convoluted watch order charts for Toaru, Monogatari, Fate, ect.

Even if a series isn't told chronologically all the time the writers are usually anticipating you knowing something the character doesn't and play with dramatic irony.

Yes, I just caught myself up and it's a very good surprise! It's not completely historically accurate but in such a short amount of time they introduced us to so many compelling storylines and characters. The whole thing about wanting to find beauty in the world and learning to live for the world, for what is in front of you in this moment is very touching. I picked up the manga because I don't think I can wait weekly for this one. And why is Baldeni so erotic?

It's so funny how the fujo fans of these two are tasting some weird bugs now because these dudes were shown boiling and eating them together in a panel. I've counted five fujos so far (not posting photos since some might hate them kek).

For how loud otaku are crying about waifus they're pretty fickle lmao. Fujos might dedicate every free hour to their ship, draw fantastic art, write (sometimes novel-length stories), make dolls, talk about their gay shit and, sometimes, apparently even eat bugs if the dudes they like have done it before, for the full experience.
I know a fujo that learned to draw because her favorite ship had no artist.

Finally picked up the dandadan anime, I remember really liking the manga a while ago but never finishing it, the almost alien rape scene is deeply off putting but it's so super rare for a shounen to have a good and mostly unsexualised female lead that I can overlook it, it's also one of the rare series where I actually care about the het romance between the two leads, still need to get up to date with the oshi no ko anime, my senpai is an otonoko and tasogare outfocus (though I kinda wanna get the physicals of the manga first) might also pick up that magical girl anime you ladies mentioned

Negaposi angler is one of those shows that I picked up with no expectations and it ended up surprising me. Even without the homo potential between MC and pink guy I just enjoy the character dynamics. Meanwhile I picked up Ao no Miburo cause I've enjoyed shinsengumi-themed anime before and I'm a total JP history weeb but it never really grabbed me and I ended up dropping it after episode 3.

Same and same. Negaposi is decently written, doesn't rely on fanservice and is pretty down-to-earth. Ao no Miburo simply has a crappy adaption, the manga panels anons posted looked much better so I might eventually pick up the manga. Dropped the anime as well.

My other two positive surprises are Maou 2099 and Orb, which I expected to be good but not that good. It also gives me my seasonal history fix now that Ao no Miburo disappointed. Wish Elusive Samurai had had 24 episodes instead of 12. But at least it's getting another season and Orb is thankfully two cours, so it will still air in winter.

Another series I enjoy (despite the so-so adaption) is Sengoku Youko. Starts generic like most Mizukami shows but I enjoy the way antagonists are written, the tragic parts involving the MCs and while it's het I like the girls and some of the dudes are very handsome. PLUS, it has an Inada character, they are always super cool.
>>7181
It's a shame. Orb, Vinland Saga and Elusive Samurai showed how successful historical series can be if they're adapted by a good director. The first two didn't even have a high budget and no sakuga like EluSam, but they are great because they're done by a competent team that knows how to adapt and convey things even without much action.

Yeah I almost ignored it for the "Maou" in the title. It was only because I checked the /a/ threads that I saw screenshots that looked very different from what I've expected. It's a shame because the isekai fags won't enjoy it and the fans that aren't into isekai will ignore it, assuming it was a generic isekai (it's technically not even isekai but a world clash with time skip).

It feels like the type of anime that would have been way more popular if it aired in the late 00s.

Started C: The Money of Soul and Possibility. Weird show about a seedy alternate dimension called the financial district where people battle with "assets" like they're pokemon.

C is kind of frustrating. Almost done and it is good with a few different opposing economic issues, but I wish the battles were more tightly tied in with the overarching plot or trimmed down. The grand concept of them makes sense, you lose money/the battle and bad things happen, but the characters money pokemon aren't visually or thematically tied each characters individual wealth. Also no matter how much characters yell wash trade or inflation I still don't buy that those have and real significance during battle and it comes off as aesthetic moreso than anything else.

It's a show where all the talking and preamble is more engaging than the flashy fights I guess. Surprisingly dark too, I loved the bit with the teacher and his life dalling apart.

>Is this gayer than Tsuritama?
I watched this such a long time ago I honestly don't remember anything about the plot anymore.

If it helps Negaposi centers around MC and his friendship with the pink dude whom he's sharing an apartment with right now. There is no blatant fujo pandering so far. It's more of a down-to-earth series developing friendship and drama between the two dudes but het is out of the question (he's openly disinterested in one girl, another girl is a lesbian and the woman is more of a funny/bizarre sidekick with no romance plot).
I think whether you like it or not depends on whether you like the two characters and hobby centered SoL. The drama only started last week.

After 6 years since its release I finally got around to finishing Boueibu Happy Kiss. I loved the first season, had mixed feelings on the second but overall enjoyed, but it's sad how badly written this one was. Way too much time spent on the monsters, overuse of the full transformation sequence and too many character rehashes, and there wasn't even a fun twist in the end to make up for it. The special transformation in the final episode would have been so good if the buildup to it had been something better, it was so lukewarm. I genuinely thought the otter would be evil.

Long time fan here, love the series, own the CDs, rewatched it several times through (even the really irksome episodes). However I'm afraid I instinctively flinch when it's brought up in conversations, it had a very persistent hate following when it aired and every time fans speak up on image boards about liking it someone revives that. Tons of nice art if you stick to lurking the JP side though, assuming they haven't been nuked in the years since I last browsed.

as fun as blue lock is, the fujobait is so over the top it feels artificial to me and i cant enjoy it nearly as much as other sports anime. the homo in haikyuu and kuroko no basket felt more organic and heartfelt. it's part of what made its ships so hot and sweet imo

It's an NHK children's comedy that features rearrangements of classical music by artists like tofubeats and EHAMIC. Something something an affront to culture something something literally grave desecration. Also Mozart has pink hair.

Anon who's planning to watch it and Mozart's design is the reason I bought it in the first place lol. Was expecting you to say something like the ending sucked but it sounds like most of the complaints are from people who aren't even the target audience? I'll check back when I'm a little ways in but it looks fun and I'm sure it'll be good.

I actually used to love the Ubel Blatt manga but I haven't read it in years. It is super edgy but if you like dark fantasy I'm sure it'll be great. I'm incapable of keeping up with anime when it's ongoing, but once it's done I'll check it out for sure.

Mozart is an absolute shitlord of a faggot and miraculously rescues his own worst episode in its last minutes, I hope you enjoy. To be honest Japanese comedy is controversial in western fandom to begin with, and usually this kind of 2-cour mostly episodic show would go under the radar save for a handful of fujos, but because it had classical music associated with it people saw an opportunity to be snobby. The pockets of Classicaloid fandom I've met over the years have always contained total diehard classical fans who do pilgrimages around Europe and collect obscure books on composers. I feel like the odd one out because I just think dogs in Bach wigs are funny and Schubert deserves a kiss (no STDs).

>the ending sucked

Well, despite calling it episodic it does have finale plots and may make or break a few characters. S1's ending builds up with a villain plot at first and is goofy as all shit, but elements of it are foreshadowed and the tone in my opinion matches the first episodes. S2 in general had the western fans divided, because after sitting through Mozart and Sousuke for an entire season, Wagner being a whiny bitch shota was too much for them (not even the sumo wrestling episode, just the announcement that Wagner would be in the show as a shota). Wagner has one of the worst vocals in the entire show (arguably part of the intentional parody of manufactured idols) but I've always liked the S2 ending because it's visually dramatic and feels to me like a natural escalation of "we made these magic beings that can literally conjure stuff, how could it possibly backfire when they're upset." It also forces some unusual match ups and tries to settle on a second theme for the series overall (S1 = music is good, everyone should have music! S2 = family is family, music expresses the self).

Sorry if I can't contain my autism. And happy birthday, Beto-san.

That's fine, but for me the shameless and over the top nature is the appeal. It's like my version of big titty isekai slave girls.
