Well this looks awesome.
Well this looks awesome.
Wait, so you watched the first half of episode one, then the very end of the final episode of season 1 and you’re judging the show based off that? Wow. Firstly, that’s a terrible way to watch shows. You have no idea what it’s even about and you’re calling it disgusting and wondering why people like it.
The entire concept of the show is that the main character is completely unhinged and totally believes in his 8th grade delusions, then dies and gets sent to another world where all of his delusions keep actually happening, but now he thinks his “friends” are just really cool and playing along with him. He’s massively overpowered and that’s explained in all of the content that you didn’t watch.
The main character has absolutely zero interest in romance. He may have a bunch of girls vying for him, but I don’t consider this a harem anime. All he cares about is living out all his OP character fantasies.
The first episode is played 100% straight, and the last episode is a big final fight wrapping up this entire plot that he’s gotten himself tangled in. But he’s literally just toying with the two women he’s fighting, they aren’t anywhere near his level. Anyone who actually watched the show understands that. You picked two of the most serious moments of the show to watch and are wondering why it’s not funny.
I’m not saying you have to like it, but not watching a show but then calling it out for being “discusting” is a weird thing to do.
I enjoyed season 1 of this. It wasn’t amazing, but it was fun. Happy to have a season 2.
What? How is it disgusting? Eminence is fantastic.
I have a sound joke but you can’t hear it
Well it’s a little complicated. Tolkien wrote it as one novel, which contained 6 books + appendices. But the publisher didn’t want to publish a 1200 page (iirc) book, so they made him divide it into 3 volumes, each containing 2 books, and then they titled them to be what we know them as.
Fun fact, the only title he wasn’t happy with was The Return of the King, because it gave away what happens in the book.
I’m partial to The Two Towers because Helms Deep is amazing and it blew my 9 year old mind when I saw it in theaters. But they’re all fantastic movies.
Oh I know, I’m talking about the same thing. It usually happens to me when I’m sitting in my simracing rig which is next to my PC and a window. I’ll be worried thinking my GPU or wheelbase has started burning when in reality it’s an overheated car radiator or something right out my window.
Happens to me once every few months. It always turns out to be a smell from outside that’s made its way into my apartment. Usually someone’s beat-up, overheating car being parked under my window.
It really is, I’m just nitpicking when I point out things that could be done better. I’m stoked about this series and have been recommending it to all my simracing teammates.
I really need to check out The Apothecary Diaries. I keep hearing good things.
Alright this was my favorite episode yet. I love Suzuka so seeing it accurately represented was great. As for the racing accuracy, everything they were saying was correct, but the visual depiction of wet weather tires vs slicks was pretty lacking.
If the track was really that wet at the start of the race, that 3rd place car on wets should have easily gotten past the two Belsorisso drivers. Like, maybe even before the esses. Having them all stay in line for the entire first lap was a little immersion breaking. When it’s wet out you tend to get drivers going all over the track hunting for any extra grip they can find, and drivers on slicks will be spinning their rears on corner exit constantly.
That said, everything else was great. I loved the detail about drivers on wets pulling off the line to cool their tires in the wet parts of the track.
The story this episode was great. I like that Kouya’s trauma wasn’t so easy to overcome and that he still has a lot to work through. And for some fun trivia, it’s fitting that the episode after they talk about Hunt and Lauda, Haruka retires from a wet weather race. In the 1976 season’s final race, Lauda retired from the Japanese GP because of how terrible the weather was, giving Hunt the championship.
Can’t wait to see where we go with this next week!
The new character designs are much closer to the original designs from the light novel. She’s supposed to look fairly young. Iirc she’s described as looking like a teenager.
Can’t wait for this. The animation looks pretty good, I was worried about that after watching A Returner’s Magic Should Be Special this season.
Same. Hopefully they adapt the entire series
Another solid episode this week. I figured it was something like that with the Prince, but it’s interesting to hear that they don’t think that the Saint can heal people. That’s like the first direction my mind goes when I think of a Saint in fantasy terms.
Is this a reputable brand? Never heard of them before. I’m thinking about replacing my 10" Kindle Fire because it lags a bit and struggles with the Crunchyroll app. I mostly use it for reading manga, and it’s great for that, but I’d like to be able to watch shows without any hiccups too. Wonder if the 11" of these would be a good replacement.
The only downside to using Firefox on Android is that Google search results can take forever to load unless you clear site cookies. And Google Image search is awful.
However that’s all fixed if you use Duck Duck Go instead.
If they’re dumb enough to leave the corpse in their backyard, they’re probably dumb enough to think they were framing the new home-owners by selling the house.
I’m so worried that this adaptation is gonna be terrible, but the light novels are fantastic.
