I don't normally watch giant robot anime, but the girl in this trailer is really hot so I guess I'll check it out
Korean vs Japanese flame wars on 4chan are like a fine wine. I love them.

The main theme is the most epic thing I've heard in a long time too.
I hope you didn't watch this on Crunchyroll, those censorious ass fagots deserve aids on how they fuck up localizations. Be a chad and watch it on aniwave.GhostCow wrote: ↑ January 11th, 2024, 04:06Just watched the premiere of Metallic Rouge. Pretty good so far.

I'm not fluent, but I'm good enough at Japanese to know when the subs are fucked up so I don't really care that much about the quality of subs unless watching with friends. I don't use streaming sites so I'm not sure where my subs came from, but they didn't seem bad.Goblin_Hammer wrote: ↑ January 11th, 2024, 04:22I hope you didn't watch this on Crunchyroll, those censorious ass fagots deserve aids on how they fuck up localizations.

Code Geass season 1 was okay. The production values are laughable compared to the golden age of Sunrise mecha anime in the 80s and 90s (namely the UC Gundam OVas and movies, Dragonar, Escaflowne, and the Big O), but I did like the art direction with the European aristocratic outfits. There was too much annoying acoustic guitar in the soundtrack. Story wise, the first season was okay. Had some issues but nothing really bad until episode 22 when the story had reached its natural conclusion and the writers had to use an awful contrivance to keep it going, and then there was season 1's ending which was then walked back in season 2. The Akito the Exiled spinoff movies were awful.
Only Nunnally and Euphemia were cute. I think there were two cute Chinese princesses in season 2 but they were pretty minor.
I have seen Escaflowne when it was on tv like 25 years ago, was good back then but nowadays I will get bored, tried watching it a few monthts ago.Val the Moofia Boss wrote: ↑ January 11th, 2024, 04:30

Behead all those who insult Kallen.
I think Kallen would be considered "sexy" rather than cute.
Finally watched this, and it shows a bit of naivete from the Japanese's inexperience with different races. Japan is probably like how we were in the 70's-80's. They better not let in the immigrants on-masse and ruin it.
nope havent seen it, not so much into slice of life stuffGhostCow wrote: ↑ February 9th, 2024, 05:10Anyone else ever watch Haiyore! Nyaruko-san? It doesn't seem like it was that popular, but I liked it a lot back when it was new. The opening for season 2 is still one of my favorite openings of all time for some reason. It's a pretty great song.

It's not a SOL. It's a parody of harem and shounen battle anime. It does have some serious moments though. This scene here is the first time an anime ever gave me feels. Her only crime is that she loves him, but he keeps stabbing her with forks every time she tries to show her affection
Then romance stuff in general since its mostly young shy boys which have no sex drive at all in anime it seems, its also a trope I cant stand. Thats why goldenboy/gantz were also great at least there they actually seemed to have one.GhostCow wrote: ↑ February 11th, 2024, 16:15It's not a SOL. It's a parody of harem and shounen battle anime.

I almost didnt bother with frieren when I looked through the first episode, but it became really good a few episodes in you just shouldnt expect too much action its more character driven. But if there is action its really awesome and has lovely characters.Cedric wrote: ↑ February 13th, 2024, 13:28Is Frieren any good? Intro gives me awful transtrender anime bait loved by normies. Yet a lot of people recommend it.
Dungeon Meshi is good as was to be expected.
SSY is great. CG is normie shit but they the protagonist isn't a retard. Mostly.
If you like shows that try really hard to manipulate your emotions and make you sad, you will enjoy it. I haven't watched it, but @NEG did and he seemed to get the same impression that I have.Cedric wrote: ↑ February 13th, 2024, 13:28Is Frieren any good?

Yeah. It's so deep the way all these cliched characters have soft music playing behind them and like such a tragic story bro. Wow, people die of old age?
