It had a kind of opposite effect for me. Sure it was still trying to go the same break neck speed the entire series is going, but this episode finally gave me time to breathe lol. I was also able to appreciate the visuals more because of the slower scenes.

Will they remove Smoking Behind The Supermarket with You?

MFW when I arrive in Japan and there are no subtitles.

I like this new series. I know there’s a vocal portion of the fanbase that doesn’t like it, but knowing it tries to stay true to the original work makes me enjoy it more.

This show is wild lmao. Not in a crazy off-the-rails kind of way, I’m used to shows like that. It’s the whiplash of how beautifully animated and serious it looks, then it goes and does this. At this point I don’t even care about the overarching story anymore, I just want to see more of the shenanigans.

I’ve had this happen with Re:Zero, Demon Slayer, and Mushoku Tensei. At some point I become so aware of the particular plot device they’re using over and over again that I start seeing it coming from a mile away.

So what’s the recipe/pattern you noticed?

Higurashi When They Cry is probably the best example I can think of.

That anime is absolutely full of repetition and recurring patterns. You start recognising things. You start noticing that certain situations, characters and events keep coming back around.

So what’s the recipe/pattern you noticed?

You gave examples but never explained what was the pattern you saw on those examples.

Right, but I was waiting for the recipe of the example you pointed out.

OP wrote their post like a recipe website. Explained with an essay and still didn’t write down the recipe at the end. lol

YuYu Hakusho, Dragonball Z, and Gundam Wing were airing around the same time when I watched them.

I have a huge backyard that faces west. I would happily fill half of it with plug-in panels if I could.

Japanese cuisine is not just sushi. Look at literally everything else and their food is flavorful and a rich mix of ingredients. Hell, that’s why umami is a japanese word.

Watching this later tonight. I need a refresher from Ramparts of Ice (same author), that show is extremely frustrating.

The Real Folk Blues is my pick for a Cowboy Bebop song.

Agreed. Also, no Mawatari Matsuko for all the Yuyu Hakusho songs. And even with recency bias, “il vento d’oro” (Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure) by Yugo Kanno should also be there.

I believe it’s a new season of the show.

Haven’t watched this yet. Is it good?

Lmao stuff is getting more real now.

Yeah, like if you ask most people about the best OG shows of that era, it’s usually Dragonball, Evangelion, Cowboy Bebop, and Gundam. Even Hunter x Hunter ended up becoming more well known.

I thought YuYu Hakusho was way more popular than it actually was.

Kudos to the translators who are somehow able to refactor a sentence that is a play on words and change it into another language with a similar effect
