- Comment on [News] Takopi's Original Sin becomes first anime to have each episode rated over 9 on IMDb 2 weeks ago:
For me this checks out. It’s my AOTY so far!
In all fairness, though, it’s just 6 episodes. It’s less likely that the standard 12 episode anime is gonna get all 9s. Let alone anything longer than that. Regardless of how good people say One Piece is (I haven’t seen it so I can’t say whether I agree with that statement or not), it’s never going to get all of its episodes over 9 on IMDB simply because it has over 1000 of them.
- Comment on What anime pleasantly surprised you the most? 2 weeks ago:
BanG Dream It’s MyGO. I’ve played the mobile game since around 2019 and have also seen the three original seasons before MyGO had come out. So I was familiar with the franchise, and while I enjoyed the 3 seasons, MyGO is way better! I was expecting more of the same, so I was pleasantly surprised.
The reason I’m not saying Ave Mujica as well is because, after MyGO, my expectations were raised, so Ave Mujica wasn’t a pleasant surprise, but rather, simply pleasant. It was no longer a surprise.
Also, to a lesser degree, this year’s Zenshuu was more fun that I expected.
- Comment on Spotify fans threaten to return to piracy as music streamer introduces new face-scanning age checks in the UK 3 weeks ago:
I tend to agree with you in that most people are too addicted to the convenience. But yeah, Balaquina does make a good point. After all, a commonly cited reason as for why the Fediverse won’t rival mainstream sites is that making an account is more complex. Even then, it’s just choosing an instance, which isn’t that hard, it’s just more complicated in comparison to, say, Reddit or Twitter. So following the same logic, it very well could backfire if Spotify raises the barrier of entry (or barrier of continuous entry, for those who already have accounts that they will have to verify).

This frame gives off a “This is a 2000s anime cliffhanger shot” vibe. For a second I thought the episode was already over.

Knowing that this image is usually used with “ass” instead of “fire”, I was surprised, cause I thought the episode was great haha
- Comment on Been a good couple of years 2 months ago:
I joined about half a year after the 3rd party apps died. Reddit’s decision back then still feels like it was more recent than just 2 years ago, though…
Can time stop speedrunning itself, please?

I knew about this story already, but damn if the article name doesn’t seem more of a big deal. (Strictly the article title. Your post title is more clear, I’m not referring to that)

I’m expecting Maomao to see him, have someone refere to him as Ka Zuigetsu, and Maomao will be all like “It is a pleasure to meet you”. Not that she wouldn’t recognize him, but that she would act like she doesn’t.

Is the girl on a left on some meme format? I swear I’ve seen her before, but I haven’t been reading manga recently and the name of it doesn’t seem familiar to me at all. So that leaves the possibility of having seen memes of her or she just looks like some other character that I can’t pinpoint right now.
- Comment on Please don't stop horny 3 months ago:
I think there’s a time and a place. If you make an anime where the point is horniness, then yeah, sure, go nuts. I’m probably less likely to watch it in that case, unless I hear praise for other aspects of it. Since it makes itself clear as ecchi from the get-go, I don’t mind. A lot of the times, however, it’s just a regular random show with random fanservice that serves no purpose. Looking at you, Fire Force! Specifically that one character.
(They might’ve toned it down in future seasons, but I wouldn’t know cause I didn’t keep up with it past the middle of Season 2 for other reasons, but yeah)
