TV: General Anime Discussion (Part 3)

[S E P H]

True, but I knew that going in so it didn't bother me too much. Apparently there's a lot more in the manga as well. If you liked it, I highly recommend checking out Makeine.

I finished Makeine and I fully enjoyed it. I do think there were some boring moments in a handful of episodes, like I think it goes too far in the slice-of-life genre, but I will definitely continue watching when season two comes out.

I'm rewatching 86, still one of my favourite anime of the last couple years.

So why does Dan da Dan only have six episodes and not sixty?

This show is something else.

Was ready to have a fun evening with this show and then they drop an episode like this...10/10 so far

I get what you're saying. As for me, I enjoy those slow moments every now and especially in Makeine the visuals, the voice acting and the humor kept me glued to the screen. Just somehow felt such an unique show in a genre that has a very repetitive storyboard

Since I binged DanDaDan in like two days, I am going to start Pluto and/or watch Fate Heaven's Feel, but I can't find Heaven's Feel anywhere. Where did you watch it?

I do like it because nothing works for the main cast, there's always pitfalls and setbacks which is very similar to real life. So, I am in full agreement that it was quite unique in a repetitive genre for sure.

Episode 7 has to be one of the top three stand-alone episodes I think I have watched in the last three years. Your Lie in April vibes.

Cried for the first time in front of my gf of 10 years because of that episode.

I ended up buying Heaven's Feel, but I'm sure they are out there for streaming somewhere. Pluto is so good!

I couldn't find Pluto in any of my streaming services, so I decided to start The Apothecary Diaries, and yes it is a damn good show. I think it falls into a lot of anime cliches, but the mysterious elements have drawn me in big time and the change of setting in a fictional yet noticeable Chinese Empire has been wonderfully refreshing. I just feel that they could have had better production value considering how each episode is quite good instead of making it another Devil is a Part-timer level of quality. I am on the last two episodes and really interested in where it goes.

Pluto is a Netflix exclusive I believe.

Thanks, right after I made that post I googled it and I saw it was on Netflix.

Another banger episode. The new curse transformation design is

The Apothecary Diaries really surprised me and is one of the best all-time for me. Maomao has a legit case for top MC over Frieren. Also the last 2 episodes are amazing

And season 2 comes out in January!

Apothecary Diaries was definitely one of my favs I've seen recently. Amazing MC but my favorite thing about it is kind of spoilery so I won't mention it.

Completely loving the show while simultaneously realizing that I can't talk about the plot with absolutely anybody outside of the sphere. That's a good quality anime.

So I fecked up lol. I swear I thought there were only 12 episodes, but when passed it I randomly saw there are like 20+. I still got a long way to go lol.

I do want to take back my production comment a tad. I would like to see more character movement like we see in Dandadan, but the backgrounds in this show are pretty damn legit.
