I’m nearly finished everything I wanted to watch from 2025 Q4.

The only one left is Shuumatsu-Touring. The characters are nice but the plot so far (EP9) is not very engaging. I thought this will be the best so I saved it for last. Wrong move.

It seems that my strategy of watching 1 trailer each and bubble sort the whole season based on my predicted enjoyment, is not giving a good result.

Finished this week (kind of)

• Towa no Yuugure I think this one has the best visual out of roughly 30 I picked from 2025 Q4. Okay-ish story, nothing that will stick with me long afterward. ED is goooood.
• SPY×FAMILY Season 3 It’s been a long while since anime get an audible laugh out of me.

• The Fire Hunter Skipped second season back when it’s airing. Decided to rewatch the whole thing. Not sure if I would watch again if there is a remake in the future. I enjoy the mysteriousness and the world building part up to the end of first season. I don’t know how to describe this kind of “civilization after shit hits the fan” revelation ending, and I don’t remember ever liking any that I have seen.

For 2025 Q4, within the scope of what I watch, I can say without a doubt Campfire Cooking in Another World is the best. (I did not watch the horses)

Made a big purchase of airsoft parts few months back. The parts arrived this week and to set the mood, I’m getting some cute girls with guns ready to binge. If anyone have more, please let me know.

• Sabagebu!
• Upotte!!

Someone familiar with OG Lain please enlighten me.

This is a snippet from project’s site.

Technology is not the goal. It is a means of expression.

serial experiments lain also used cutting-edge digital expression for its time, and it caused both praise and criticism.

If, in 1998, people had feared new technology as “too early” or “wrong,” I do not think that work could have been born.

Where can I read more about this “praise and criticism”? Cause this seems to be one of the arguments for AI uses in production.

don’t forgot about the horses

Yes, I know about those, and I double dog dare the people in charge of character design to do this unironically.

Furthest back that I can remember are Doraemon both films and series from around 80s 90s and some other tokusatsu. All on VHS. Can not remember which one exactly is “the first”. I start early ;)

Then some series that I never watched from start to finish on cable network. Like Ranma, Sailor Moon, Oh! My Goddess, You’re Under Arrest!, Houshin Engi, El Hazard, CC Sakura, Galaxy Angels. I always try to be in time for Sakura and Galaxy Angels airing, because cute girls. Never did, because school.

Some certainty with title that marks the moment I start actively seeking out and watching more anime. Probably Sister Princess, fan-subbed, burned on CD-R. Good times.

The artist wish to not have their works repost so I will only link to twitter post.

xcancel just loads image more reliable than other instance once you get past the janky bot check. Use any front end you like.

“Special” and cute

if so, the story better hurry up and move on from tragic backstory to the fun part soon ~please~

It’s nice. The smallest cat is my fav (Azuki?) the one who take care of the lost green cat.

Those kitties need more brain cells and half the lewdness.

Oh, I should have word it more clearly. I watch things season by season and currently mid way through fall 2025. 3 behind current season.

Based on hints from other users, I’m 3 seasons behind. Will be a while before I get to taste the five stars cringe.

To know where something lands on the spectrum, you need to know both ends of it 🧠👈

Just finished To Your Eternity S03 and what I half expected turned out to be true.

There is an unanswered part. This one does not feels like part of the core story and I have not look into source material yet. I’d be grateful to anyone who knows…

I can’t go. Still, I want to know what happened to him, what changed in his mind. Every subsequent films after Summer Wars and Wolf Children are slightly more disappointing than the last.

Yup. “Disappointment” would best describe my thought. I remember getting excited for The Boy and the Beast, watched it, get disappointed. Then comes Mirai, another disappointment, worse than the last. Learned not to expect too much before watching Belle.

Went on wiki to look something up…

Could be the writer, could be something else IDK. At the end of the day, what only matters to me is that it’s enjoyable and worth my time. I have not seen Scarlet yet but will treat it as something random from no-name director going in.

Wouldn’t even start watching if I knew there would be [more than] 4 seasons of it. Dropped out at start of S3 I think, don’t remember, don’t care. If not for FOMO, Touyama Nao, and this handsome fish, I would have dropped it sooner.

play indie games

for AAA titles, installing and running them already feels like a burden. PC games use to ship on 700 MB CD and 4 GB DVD and I think it’s insane to see more than 2 discs in a box. Developer have to save every triangle on the model and every MB of texture memory to work on limited resource. Now they just ship 8k full LOD and let UE handle the optimization part. Won’t complain if it works good.

80 GB for one game is not ideal

Other than absolute masterpieces already listed by other users. These are some that I have rewatched and can think of.

• Non Non Biyori
• Flying Witch
• Gabriel Dropout
• Handyman Saitou in Another World

you mean Houkago Teibou Nisshi?
If not for covid situation I think it would have been more popular.
