Same voice actress as well :) (Aizawa Mai)
- Comment on CITY THE ANIMATION - Episode 2 discussion 3 days ago:
- With photography as a subject (pun intended) the shot composition goes pretty hard as well.
- The opening has a little moment at the end where they hug that white thing. A similar moment can be found in one of the K-ON! openings (also Kyou-ani).
- This episode is also longer than 24 minutes. I thought that was just for the first episode. If it consistently runs for about 27 minutes, that would be pretty rare.
- It seems that this anime is going to be more continuous with some plot elements than Nichijou. With that I mean that even if there won’t be some kind of grand plot, the episodes do seem to build upon each other in a linear fashion instead of being mostly moments that are separate from eachother.
- Comment on CITY THE ANIMATION - Episode 1 discussion 1 week ago:
- aaaaah the colours the animation aaah
- very Nichijou like humour as expected
- at 7:29 they employ one of my favorites: calligraphy/font annotated speech
- the city overviews are wonderful, always like when anime zooms out
- at 8:30 there is a split screen, I only know of Lucky Star having done that before (also Kyouani)
- artist/editor interaction, reminds me of Gochuumon wa Usagi desuka?
- at 10:31 the “armless form” appears, previously seen in Nichijou and Azumanga Daioh. Seen the greats but not popular broadly in anime?
- the “action scenes” like the wine cork scene are very much like Nichijou (like the Yukko/Mio sausage scene)
- the sections with small interludes betwixed, a la Nichijou. However the sections seem to smoothly connect to each other before going off into their own direction. This adds a lot of world building and making the location feel real and alive.
- It is interesting to see how this fleshing out of the location continues. Another anime that takes place in a relatively small town and in which that location is quite important to whole is Aria, which does that very successfully.
- Wako is a real wacko, god bless her soul
- It’s EP 1 and we already have a broccoli scene. Truly Nichijou 2.0 in spirit.

Excited for City obviously. The Nichijou community is also the City community: !nichijou@lemmy.world.
Finished Binzume Yousei. It’s an old educational anime for children. I don’t think I learned anything new but the fairies were cute and the OP is kinda fire. It has one of my favorite oddly specific events: children learning about the cycle of life. It’s a wholesome anime, recommended for true moe enjoyers.
- Comment on Did anyone here brave enough put "Boku no Pico" on their MAL or Anilist? 2 weeks ago:
I had heard that name before, and for some reason I had categorised it in my head along with my hero academia and other popular shows I had no interest in. After looking it up because of this post I was rather wrong. Still no interest though.

I don’t know many but I just finished Tamako love story and my heart is full. Definitely too sweet to be real, just how I like it.
- Comment on What anime do you regularly rewatch? 4 weeks ago:
I don’t really rewatch things because there is still so much more things to watch that I haven’t and there is limited time to watch anime. I have rewatched Non Non Biyori’s first episode a few times. The first minutes are really good and I really like the cherry blossom tree scene including the build up to it.

I finished ARIA the natural. It’s very good again. Especially the OST and Athena’s songs. I don’t think I’ve seen so many golden hour shots in an anime ever. I’m a great enjoyer of golden hour, tender music and a some sappy lines.
- Comment on Slice of life, wistful melancholy, and K-On making me cry a bunch 1 month ago:
I did like BTR, just not as much as others praise it. Nice to hear that you already have Hidamari Sketch on your list, it’s underrated in my opinion. The animation style is also really unique.
- Comment on Slice of life, wistful melancholy, and K-On making me cry a bunch 1 month ago:
For me there really isn’t anything better in anime then moments like the one you describe in K-ON! I have that same picture up as the banner on !kon@lemmy.world. I think older anime do these tender moments better than the newer ones. For example Bocchi the Rock is quite forgettable to me, especially compared to K-ON! (I watched them back to back).
If you are interested in this type of stuff, you might want to check out the genre “iyashikei” (free translation: “healing genre”). The border with iyashikei, slice of life and cgdct is often blurred, I argue that K-ON! is indeed at least partially an iyashikei anime. It’s a bit of spectrum, most SOL will include some iyashikei but some have a much stronger emphasis on it. Other titles that may be of interest are Non Non Biyori, Hidamari Sketch and ARIA.

I’m in the middle of ARIA the natural. My sappy ass getting all weak when the golden hour light pours down and the music starts going. Very tender anime.
- Comment on Anime Questions, Recommendations, and Discussion Thread [2025, Week 17] 2 months ago:
I watched ARIA the animation, and yea, it’s really good. I also finished NEW GAME!! Which is quite good, I like CGDCT in a workplace environment for a change (so not a school environment). Lastly I watched Yurumeitsu. Critics often say that nothing happens in CGDCT. The yuru mates really don’t do shit basically. They sleep a lot. So yea pretty good, but nothing special. I started watching slow loop. Which is very comfy, they cuddle a lot.

NHK ni youkoso kinda hit hard the days after I finished it. I listened to the 2nd ending on repeat lol. In order to combat the big sad, I started watching ARIA. I have seen two episodes and it is very promising. Aria-sachou is so cute…
- Comment on Anime with alternate orders 4 months ago:
Hidamari Sketch. The first two seasons have an achronological order. Each episode is a day in their life in one of the twelve months. Online you can find alternative orders that if you follow them, the story is told chronological. Although I don’t think it would make that much of a different experience given the episodic nature and lack of overall narrative. One thing about the release order is that sometimes the characters refer to something that happen but the viewer hasn’t seen that yet. That is something that would disappear with the alternative order. From what I hear the manga is mostly chronological so it would be more true to the manga.

I finished NHK ni Youkoso!. It’s quite a lot of action and drama for someone like me but I got through it fine. The plot feels quite forced at points, but I guess I feel that way about seemingly any plot based anime series so I don’t know if that says anything about this one in particular. I thought the characters were quite human and the subject matter is presented very well despite it flaws.
opinion with spoilers
I like that the end is mellow and bitter sweet instead of Tatsuhiro improving a lot or completely going down the drain. He gets a shitty job but apart from that has a similar lifestyle. Misaki was always manipulative with a cold exterior but I hoped their relation would warm up after the last suicide attempts and that they could be at least be friends without a contract. While Tatsuhiro’s condition has improved (not a hikki neet anymore), I don’t think Misaki’s condition has improved as she clearly has the same abandonment issues: she still needs Tatsuhiro secured by contract to not leave her. But on the other hand, when I think about it, marriage is also mostly a contract to stay together with a penalty to paid upon failure. Makes you think. Depressingly, Tatsuhiro is presented as a bottom of the barrel character yet he seems way more accomplished than I am at his younger age. He manages to live by himself at age 22 (and younger). Maybe it’s just fictional bullshit or 2006 Japan is build different, but paying rent by yourself with a seemingly minimum wage job is wild. Still, he has his own place which he pays for himself by age 23. Convincing your parents to pay your living costs for years while being a NEET is kinda impressive as well. Dude has talent to be a diplomat or something. Multiple girls are interested in him which is no small feat either. His biggest problem was being a hikki neet but he escaped that by the end. All in all he doesn’t seem that much of a failure to me.
- Comment on anime that are built diffrent 4 months ago:
I see things like Nichijou, Lucky Star, Azumanga, etc. Those are all favorites of mine but I don’t think they are very weird. I would recommend Poputepipikku, Sakigake! Cromartie Koukou and most of all Pani Poni Dash! Maybe Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei. Depends on how weird you want your weird shit to be.
- Comment on [Anime] Caught off guard - Oomuro-ke 4 months ago:
Hidamari Sketch is one of my favorites, it’s really unique and artistic. I like how slow it is. I hope you enjoy the rest of it. Madoka’s character designs are based on the Hidamari girls. They even share voice actresses: Miyako-Mami, Sae-Hitomi, Hiro-Junko. Madoka is basically depressing Hidamari Sketch 🥲. In my mind the Madoka girls would have had a similar life to the Hidamari’s if it wasn’t for Kyuubei and the witches.

I’m partial to girls doing art anime. Sounds a lot like “Comic Girls” but with older girls.
- Comment on Bocchi the Rock! Anime Gets 2nd Season With New Director 4 months ago:
If money was no issue I would direct a SOL over anything remotely action related but I’m just a random brain damaged moe slurping idiot so choosing the opposite is probably what any well adjusted adult would do. I even think bocchi was a bit story heavy so I will be interested so see if they double down on that or not.

I’m watching something that is not a moe show (NHK ni youkoso). It’s 24 episodes long, so that’s at least 24 days of no moe. It’s not like I need moe or anything, baka! I’ll be just fine. (gonna overdose on moe afterwards)

- Comment on Winners of the 2024 Lemmy Anime Awards 6 months ago:
Technically everything can be a slice of life. But preferably it is used for stuff that focuses on daily life. Is frieren actually a slice of life or is this a case of shounen fans calling everything with less than 50% action a SOL? I also heard frieren is a slow show. Is it actually slow or just by shounen standards?
- Comment on Fall Anime Season Wrap-Up and Discussion Thread [2024, Week 52] 6 months ago:
I watched Joshiraku and Ichigo Mashimaro. Joshiraku is decent. Not as sharp and artistic as its brother anime Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei. The ED is very popular but the op is the real banger in my opinion. Ichigo Mashimaro is amazing. They don’t make slice of life like that anymore. Wonderful art style. Effective humor, quite dry. The show feels very effortless. Only negative point is that Nobue is kinda sus.
