>>8018Aquarion Evol was only good for shitposting and shipping wars - is that new entry really any better? Not that the original Aquarion was any better, but the dumb comedy and the lore which was custom-made for the 'dark/mysterious/reads Greek mythology and fantasy books about angels and demons' fangirl audience were worth it.
>>8062>Any 2021-2024 hidden gems?Isekai Shikkaku if you enjoy Osamu Dazai's books (and his persona).
Revenger was also quite neat (and had a gay sex scene - sasuga Urobuchi!).
>>8063>Bravern, Elusive Samurai and SK8These are must-watches.
>>8067>Sankaku Mado no Sotogawa wa YoruI'm still mad that it's classified as BL - it's definitely not. Any battle shounen is gayer, especially Naruto.
>>8312Kado had such tremendous seethe in /a/ threads - you should have been there! It's a shitshow of epic proportions.

>>8712>I'm still mad that it's classified as BL - it's definitely not. Any battle shounen is gayer, especially Naruto. I've seen you say this before, out of curiosity what happens in the last two volumes that elicits this reaction? I only read up to vol 8. Did they somehow turn it father-son since Hiyakawa's sense of affection is fucked up to begin with?
>>8713I don't think it's really necessary to link 21 day old posts like this, fc is a small slow board and the Bravern thread has been on the front page in the time since that post was made.

>>8761Nice! I haven't seen all of it but what I have is really funny. It's one of those that looks really ugly/gross from the outside but in context it works.
>Do Baki fujos even exist? I actually used to know someone who shipped that pic! Though she was only interested in it because Yujiro is a serial rapist. Don't see much shipping fanart even though it's a relatively big series so the designs probably scared most people off, personally while I like most of the cast it doesn't scratch any shipping itch for me.

Do you think Panty&stocking is actually good and funny? I know this stuff is subjective but I figured this community has pretty close tastes to mine. I guess an alternative question is: If I enjoy Vivziepop cartoons will I enjoy Panty&stocking?
No.8838
>>8837I liked it back when it came out, but I was an immature high schooler with a higher tolerance for vulgarity. If you like/don't mind lowbrow toilet and sex humor I think the art style alone is worth watching it for and Imashi always delivers. Besides that all of the primary cast are enjoyable, Panty was my favorite.

Anybody watching Zenshuu?
It's more of a yume show but it tackles a subject fujos should be able to relate to (the obsession over a piece of fiction and its male character, the urge to draw him and the escapism and happiness said hobby provides).
>>8761Oh I just started Baki as well. I always stumbled upon scenes from those series that were just really damn well made but I always put it off. The threesome rape of Trump and Musk from the spin-off is what finally made me pick this masterpiece up. Enjoying it a lot so far. Not shipping them either (not yet) but same as you I said the same thing about FKMT manga until I got obsessed with it lol

>>8861>ZenshuuI remember watching a teaser and I thought it was about some auteur animator and nothing more. Just watched another trailer and it seems like something I'd like, appreciate the recommendation.
I like the scenes of her sitting in the theater witnessing her favorite character and rooting for him.

>>8912Yeah I wasn't expecting any sort of BL. I indeed just wondered if it'd be my thing cause for instance you have jokes in Helluva boss like the dildos coming out of the walls which is kinda juvenile but I didn't mind.
No.8915
>>8914I feel like Trigger is more aware of BL and fujos since the Galo/Lio hype. I wouldn't put it past them to obviously pander fujos or create actual gay characters anymore, we will see.
Tbh even incest wouldn't even be that surprising in PSG. I hope they will get a lot of fanart.
No.8918
>>8915I don't expect any pandering to fujos just because of cute boys. The anime is very heterosexual and it's more likely they'll be shipped with the women.

>>8918Garterbelt was gay for laughs and the demon sisters had Yuribait, obviously that was for men but Id be surprised if they introduced cute angel brothers and didn't atleast fujo pander a little bit, even if it's just a small amount so that they don't make the male fanbase uncomfortable
No.8923
>>8906Armpit sluts are my least favorite kind of character design and I don't like the pink guy's mullet so I probably won't ship them seriously but I'm always happy for bait if we do get it. Hoping we might get some demon boys now.

>>8924I didn't really have goodwill for Sarazanmai because it's a "multimedia project", which I've seen too many times with cashgrab fujoshit made of gacha/manga/novel/youtube drama/a mediocre sparknotes anime/2.5D (pick 4)
No I won't read a novel for the cops' backstory, take out the stock footage instead.
No.8927
>>8926It's great when a series gets spin-offs in other media AFTER the series like the Bravern and KlK short novels. But it usually sucks if it starts as multimedia project right away because it means they won't bother telling a proper story and force you to buy the DLCs to get it instead.
I boycott crossover comics for the same reason.
The only time I have ever seen a multimedia project working for me personally was for the first era of .hack. It helps that I was a massive fan of it after watching the anime, so I was eager to know more. Sarazanmai strikes me as way too weird and artsy to make anybody care about the characters. Like I love cop dynamics and I even like the cop designs quite much, but the anime never managed to make me care about anybody so I didn't bother digging up the novel.
No.8928
My biggest pet peeves with multimedia properties is that the supplementary material is either shit like 2.5 stages that are stupidly expensive to attend to/buy or novels that never get translated. I no longer bother with anything that bids itself as a multimedia project.

>>8925I agree with this. I hated Penguindrum and Yuri Kuma because they were so messy and not in the good way. It's clear the only reason Utena was so good is because it wasn't only him. The cops in Sarazanmai weren't that interesting because if you need to have been following side material, it's not much. And I genuinely hated Kazuki in the show.

>>8924Just finished the last EP. It became easier to watch around Ep4 but yeah, was never able to become fully interested in it and wasn't able to take anything seriously. Got a few smirks out of some gags, but otherwise my fav thing about it is the visuals. (The OP/ED are p alr too. Stand by me oneeeeegaiii.) In retrospect it didn't take me /that/ long to finish it but I had ample time to be done with it even earlier than now but had to keep working up the desire to continue on with eps. At least I didn't drop it outright though, I suppose? Tooi>Enta>Kazuki to rank the main trio.
Anyway, I'm gonna watch the Kaitou Queen OVA soon-ish and move on to Night Head 2041 afterward, prob.

>>8994Coming back to your question, Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou is more of a comedy and has too many girls to be true CBDCT. There are more pure examples of that, like Meganebu.
