  1. well... its better then Delta.. 😆
  2. Series are starting to wrap, nothing has really changed for me. I will add.. Maou-sama, Retry! R - Very blah overall.. another edgelord anime. However... towards the end of 1of the episodes there is a battle between the Maou and some child looking demon, that is absolutely hilarious. Skip the rest, just watch abit previous for context. I went back a few seasons to give Utawarerumono a rewatch since I was so critical about it. I'm gonna back pedal a little bit considering what it had to cover with not much time to do so. However.. My original gripe of cutting too much out leaves some major gaps and questions unanswered to the astute viewers. There are some scenes in the end that are easy to miss, but relevant to those who played the games. My original advice still stands.. play the games.
  3. I gave it a go when it first came out, I got upto and watched the Mugen Train(?) arc and the dropped it. It was entertaining, but the shonen jump formula doesn't work on me anymore.
  4. Neither have I, I paid for the express shipping and nada. No more $$ from me until they release what they already took. I am happy it made it, but I smell Ponzi scheme..
  5. So comparing the JP remaster limited edition box to this.. Is the US version the upscale release? and the US version appears to have a bigger art book a few more art cards and a poster? Am I missing anything else? Upon looking at the JP release and the pictures on Crunchy roll, the US release only is 1 Disc, the JP release is 2. Probably not the up scaled version. Also the JP release has an artbook, that is only 40 pages long, the box has the same outer slipbox, minus some text at a few places. JP release has 5 art/post cards. US release has 8. Both releases share 4 cards as per CRs website with the US release getting 4 that are not in the JP release. The JP has 1 card that is not in the US release. And the JP version does not have the poster. I am just curious if its worth picking this up if I already have the JP remaster box.
  6. I haven't looked ahead to next season, if nothing pops up I might take a step away for a season.
  7. Dandadan - is probably the only title this season that has me looking forward to the weekly releases. Even more so now with ReZero on hiatus. The rest of this season is largely a snooze fest. Arifureta and Danmachi both have turned me off, I am behind on both but catching up is going to be a slog. Tensei Kizoku, Kantei Skill de Nariagaru 2nd Season - boring, there is no saving grace for this.. its a slog and I gave up. Nageki no Bourei wa Intai shitai - Another boring one, but not an isekai. The whole gimmick about the MC stretches belief beyond any reason. I am at least still watching this one, but this is just weak. Kimi wa Meido-sama - Not that bad overall, worth a watch as it has its moments. A rare beacon of hope this season. Sayonara Ryuusei, Konnichiwa Jinsei - is your vanilla Isekai nothing worth of note here.. outside of a Monster Girl waifu.
  8. So ReZero S3 is 8 episodes? wait wut? The 2nd half airs in Feb 2025? ... guess I can start watching, as I said previously I already know what is coming assuming it stays faithful to the LNs.
  9. So remember folks Kickstarter rewards are not Guaranteed. Are Kickstarter rewards guaranteed? It's important to keep in mind that backing is not buying, and rewards are not guaranteed. The first thing to note here is that the estimated delivery date is just that, an estimate. This date is determined by project creators as their best guess for when backers will receive their rewards. I do wish KC all the best, but as others have mentioned I have several PreOrders that are unfulfilled from KC, and no word on release and no response to my emails.
  10. you know.. this reeks of desperation. I'm gonna pass on all of it. Some good stuff here, but they still haven't produced what they already took money for... Caveat Emptor..
  11. Without going into spoilers, the whole Syr/Freya thing is just largely coming across as irrelevant. Especially coming off the events of S4 where IMO the series saved itself from a very terrible story arc (S3). Its still too early to tell, and unlike some others like ReZero I don't already know what is coming. I still personally don't think this series was ever able surpass S1, and has been going downhill since. S4 came the closest to the level of S1 IMO and now as of S5 Ep 5 we are sliding back down into S3 levels.. or so it seems. Again just my .02
  12. I've pumped the brakes on this season, I intentionally have delayed watching ReZero S3, I am going to let it get ahead abit before I move onto Ep 2. As for others this season, just not feeling anything currently. Danmachi is just ...... at this point, and Arifureta S3 (sp?) is just more of the edge lord stuff and was stale in S2. Dandadan is entertaining, probably keep up with that for that time being. I even gave Uzumaki a go, and that was just.. bad.
  13. So wrapped Oshi no Ko S2.. I'll take back some of what I said, but double down on other parts. S2 was not as strong as S1, they spent waaaaaaaay too much time on the so called "theatre arc". All the while every characters moves and motive being narrated to you the whole time... it really does treat the viewers like they are dumb. The twist during the final few episodes and the "passing" of the proverbial driving factor passing from Aqua to Ruby just doesn't click. Neither does the whole motivation that Aqua has just turning off like a light switch. TBH its hard to review this without spoilers. I assume there will be a S3 considering the ending credits, but TBH I don't think I much care at this point.
