I would be endless amused if they were saying "Beta are our friends". Also Ursala is a character's name so its probably like shine under her banner or something. Thanks for translations! | ||

I think absolutely every last thing in season 2 is going to be hype-worthy. Season 1 stopped literally right before the best part. And by the best part I mean, of course, Alice's mother. | ||

Grimgar was OK, like I often said it would be a perfect long running show with the pacing it had. But it isn't so I'm only willing to give it a 7/10. | ||

Lupin's also over. It was a typical, yet solid entry to the franchise. Given the episodic nature of the show, there were some mediocre, some good, and some really good eps. The overarching story I could've done without, but it wasn't bad either. Shirayuki s2 was okay. I still think the pirate arc was terrible. I'm also left in the position of liking the side characters and all their interactions far more than Zen and Shirayuki. | ||

Given, it's total bs that she was able to control so well after disabling the balancer but she has so much "potential" lol. For a show that seemed like it was going to be quite silly and boring, it's surpassed my own expectations and has been one of my favourite this season. Only thing that could've made it better was to fix this last balancer bit and maybe add in the romance that went missing from the show and as evident by pictures from the LN/VN.

oh also lots of the vol1 BDs are out for the finishing season by now: *5. *8,559 *8,559 Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku wo!

I guess that depends on how you look at it  In terms of total numbers then yes the drop is larger between 1 and 2, but if you look at the relative drop (in percentages) from one volume to the next then the drop from vol 2 to 3 was slightly larger. Granted it's only 21 vs 22% which makes the drops fairly comparable, wish i knew what the difference in the event tickets of vol 1 and 2 were. The thing though is that most shows don't drop 20~25% per volume and that it'll be interesting to see if the following volumes will sell near the same as volume 3 or if it'll keep dropping steeply. This isn't even close to being the steepest drop from event ticket to no event-ticket though, so that's nice. Edit: For comparison of other event ticket drops: Volume 1 of Uta no Prince-sama Maji Love 2000% sold 65k but vol 2 dropped to 28k lol | ||

Didn't really imagine they'll make it that depressing tbh  Is the VN translated yet? | ||

//Caught an illness and decided to start Boku Dake. 3 eps in and so far I think it's pretty good. + Show Spoiler + The teacher was really creepy at first, then he normalised and then the last scene made him look totally creepy again... | ||

I was hoping that we'll get some info on his background as well. I would've liked to find out just what his position was. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + What I liked: - Satoru's mom, man that woman carried so hard - the mystery - the heart-warming build-up of the relationship between Satoru and Kayo What I didn't like: - the naivety in some cases - the fact how the officials and some characters acting against common sense - not explaining any of the "Revival"-stuff - the hamster story and the maniac that was his homeroom teacher...I swear only anime can do this type of character and let him get away with it | ||

The last episode of Phantom World was fairly nice. + Show Spoiler + But after hearing that the manga is fairly dark and seeing last episode I hoped for a dark cliffhanger ending. Was sort of disappointing how easy enigma went down. | ||

And that's pretty much the only reason I kept mentioning this show for the last 3 weeks. Had this just been shit source ending up with shit anime who cares. Idk actually, haven't read them so maybe they are, but it at least sounds interesting. Just do what's in "season1" in ~7 episodes (because let's face is, introduction just ends up being 1 episode per character even if those would have been equally bad as they were just now) , give "season2" 11 episodes, go full grimdark and another 6 episodes for the third one or go REALLY grimdark and just do vol1+2. That's what's so annoying for me. This could have easily been watchable. | ||
