I really love how wrong his mental picture of Unknown is. She would be much more terrified of him trying to talk to her than any monster.

I believe that is a young Utena from Gushing Over Magical Girls.

Nooo! I mean, I like Nishiumi, but this story does not need her falling in love with Kugayama. I hope that we don’t get sucked into this too much further.

We are right back in the swing of things and the cooking sakuga is here once again. The OP sadly does not live up to the season 1 OP, which I have listened to ever since; it was so much fun. It was nice to see the new ED use the same art style as the season 1 ED.

I have always had a hard time making pan fried gyoza. They always end up sticking to my pan and tearing open. When it all works it is fantastic…but I just haven’t gotten it consistent yet.

I loved this show so much. I love the manga as well, but they really went all out with the production for this show. The Roboko episode in particular was excellent. This series has basically become my go-to example of a dark comedy.

Found this while on the train and though it was interesting. It’s hard not to compare this first chapter to Delicious in Dungeon, but it definitely is early days.

Haha, now I won’t be able to unsee the mushi as floaters. I wouldn’t be surprised if this was an inspiration though. I had always thought they looked kind of like images of cyanobacteria.

I see the situation you are describing in Please Bully Me, Miss Villainess! all too often. The author has an interesting idea for a hook, it plays out for a couple volumes, and then things become generic after that. I get that it is hard to let a successful series end, but some great short series get stretched into long, generic ones.

Source for people that don’t know is Tomo-chan is a Girl!. This is a fan-colored version of chapter 907 (each chapter is just one page).
Wow, did that person fan-coloring the whole series make it this far already?
- Comment on [Meta] Proposal regarding post tags for c/anime and c/manga 3 days ago:
There was a suggestion in the anime thread about shortening it to just [Rec] which I liked. RT/WT isn’t really clear unless you read the sidebar (hard to do on some apps) or are already familiar with what they mean from the subreddits.
- Comment on [Meta] Proposal regarding post tags for c/anime and c/manga 3 days ago:
Yeah, I added [Chapter] to the sidebar as an option. I agree that it makes a lot of sense and it more closely mirrors the [Episode] tags that are used on the anime side.
- Comment on [Meta] Proposal regarding post tags for c/anime and c/manga 3 days ago:
See here for a post I made on the accompanying anime thread.
I would be fine with people switching over to [Chapter] to go with their posts. Once lemmy 1.0 comes out, I will be making post flair that people can use to categorize their posts to help with searching and categorizing. I will definitely have different flair to disambiguate discussions about a chapter and other types of discussions (question, recommendations, reviews, etc.).
- Comment on [Meta] Proposal regarding post tags for c/anime and c/manga 3 days ago:
About the post tags…it was all pretty much just lifted from reddit since that is the system people were most familiar with at the time. By now, I think it is fair to reevaluate and figure out what makes the most sense for our use case and scale. Lemmy 1.0 (when that finally gets released) is planning on having support for piefed/reddit-style post flairs, so that can hopefully serve the role of these tags more formally.
One thing that I do like from your list is the switch from RT/WT to just a more general recommendation tag. RT/WT aren’t very clear or easy to guess what the abbreviations mean unless you are already familiar with the culture coming from the subreddits or have read the sidebar (which isn’t always easy to view depending on the app you use). I do think that keeping it shorter is probably better, so maybe something like [Rec] like @ReluctantZen@feddit.nl suggested might be best.
DISC/Discussion is tricky. I agree that discussion as a topic is pretty broad and can cover much more than just chapter discussions. However, this is a tag that is so ingrained in the muscle memory of people it might be too hard to dislodge. I suspect that this might be a case where the tag in the post title might end up staying as DISC, but we can create more fine-grained post flair once lemmy 1.0 comes out to help people filter and categorize more.

Only two shows that I have checked out from this season so far:
- Dusk Beyond the End of the World - Episode 1 (actual episode 2) did a lot of worldbuilding and I am really impressed with the action animation they did. Really enjoying this so far.
- Touring After the Apocalypse - The first episode was…fine and about what I expected…until a sudden, action-y turn happened. I am really looking forward to more now to figure out what is going on with our main characters and the world they find themselves in.

I have been traveling a lot this past week (as in driving all over the place), so I haven’t been able to read too much. However, I did want to mention one series that I found that I have enjoyed a lot so far:
Basically, this is one of those series where things like monsters and magic started appearing in this world and humans got skills to go along with it. The protag of this series is basically like Saitama from OPM, but at the same time is like Bocchi from Bocchi the Rock. It makes for a fun combo! Only the first couple chapters are on mangadex, but I am looking forward to more.

Just based on the description from AniList, I was not expecting the plasma rifle to suddenly pop out of her arm. I am interested to see more as we go sightseeing through this world.
- Comment on [Episode] Dusk Beyond the End of the World • Towa no Yuugure - Episode 2 discussion 5 days ago:
This episode delivered on a lot of what I was hoping for. We saw lots of bits of worldbuilding as Akira is learning about the world he finds himself in. We also get some new characters to like and one that is a lot of fun to hate. The animation team really put their all in the fight scene this episode. I am looking forward to learning more about OWEL in the coming episodes.

I enjoyed this manga. I eventually dropped it due to time, but it’s fun. Rita and Doug are great characters.

As a physicist, I never thought of my cats in this way. Perhaps they are just like me! …or they just like the chaos.
