So its like if that one english-memer voice actress, Sally (?), got made into one of those virtual youtubers. I guess I can see the appeal if you are into that sorta thing.

The ending was dramatic but no one died? seriously? At least kill off the commander or the princess and her loyal guard? Did that blast really do nothing to her? It's just so hard to believe. I kept thinking that at least someone will die. Heck, I figured that Izuku will likely die due to how much he was exerting himself but nothing?

Same goes for how the Waguldi king just went, oh we found a new evolutionary method. Ok, that's it, let's just pack up and forget about hunting. I realize they do things for themselves but his brother died, he lost several commanders and that's it? No retaliation or anything?

Other thing and this isn't a big deal since there was no tag for it but a little more umm romance in the anime would've helped greatly. They made Tamaki a dense person and killed off Patrick then made her feel sad for him? Well, maybe as a friend, sure but no way as a lover. I would've liked to see Izuku and Kei get a little closer. Just a single episode where they did something together would've been enough imo.

lol those names.

+ Show Spoiler +
I don't see what the big deal is with not killing off characters. Killing off people just for the sake of it doesn't make for better storytelling. Randy and Patrick dying actually had relevance, but what would killing Teoira's butler accomplish? As far as Izuru, hes in pretty fucked up condition, just because he isn't actually dead doesn't mean hes fine.

The Wulgaru are weird, but your conclusion about them packing up and forgetting about the hunt at the end is wrong. I won't say more because there is a movie that continues the story a bit.


Also keep bad romance out of my anime plz

haha only name I mispelled that I noticed is the race's name but I think I got all the other character names right?

+ Show Spoiler +
oh I wasn't saying that they must die for better storytelling, but I'm saying that at least the commander should've died there. I can't fully fathom how the princess managed to save him and get out alive when they was right at the core of that massive explosion. You can argue that she went a level higher, much like her brother did which is why they showed the wings, but sorry, feels a bit odd to me. Only other thing in favour is her brother and Izuku surviving the explosion, but they weren't as close as she was so from my perspective, the commander or commander/princess/her butler should've died because it would've made more sense that way. I have no problems with Izuku surviving since there was a lot of "maybes" thrown around him surviving if he piloted again and like you mentioned, not like he came out of it unscathed.

forgot that there's a movie for this, guess I should see it sometime soon then. Hopefully it'll have a satisfying ending.

I can't agree at all, i loved the start and then the show just fell off a cliff for me and became super fucking uninteresting despite neat animation and style. If i had only watched the first 2 episodes i would've considered it a contender for 2nd place (because 1st is going to be bnha for me no matter what) but everything after the first 2 episodes just hasn't been good storytelling or character wise imo.
First 2 episodes were like solid 8/10 and then it just fell down to like 6/10 at best for me, only carried by visuals.
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!

Did you watch the last episode? I should have said new series AotS, to disqualify BNHA :p

I have Megalo Box, Golden Kamuy, and GeGeGe no Kitaro as my top new series for this season. BNHA, Black Clover, and maybe TG re: as continuing anime.

I haven't watched the latest episode but i don't think it's gonna magically retroactively make me like the 8 episodes after episode 2. To me 80% of the show has had really awful storytelling and characters.

None of the fights have been exciting or engaging to me as a viewer. You're free to feel differently but yeah i haven't enjoyed the show at all recently.

I disagree 100%. I felt the same way at about episode 4 but I kept going and it turned itself around for me. It's no Gintama (best anime ever created), but it is engaging. The last 2-3 episodes in particular have become something great.

Also Izuru. And that episode where Tamaki and Kei went around doing PR was great fun! I'm MJP's light-handed touch involving anything close to romance and melodrama is one of its strong points. The vast majority of the time when anime does either, its bad, so I'd rather them keep the badness away and stay focused on keeping it a solid mecha show

The movie itself doesn't exactly give a more concrete ending (give me S2 please), but does continue it and throws Asagi a lot more bones than the show did. And continues the Orange trend of having the only best CG in anime

tbh I would like to blame it on Hikasa Yoko being too... serious when delivering her role but I feel it's really just that her character is actually that shit and she's just following instuctions.
Either way, damn is that a shit character. I'll take tentacle-rape Asuna, imouto-who-desperately-wants-his-dick (actually she was a cousin iirc?), dutchwife-Asuna and the aids/cancer arc/characters. All better than this.

They should have just meme'd all the way with the P90 and not take itself serious. Was at least enjoyable that way.

And man I just finished todays Darling in the Franxx episode... this is going places

and with that... Highschool DxD is officially the best anime for me this season I think? Oh right nevermind, Souma obviously best. So all good

Gotta cash in one the battle royale craze.

Apparently the original GGO LN has a different author from SAO, and apparently the writing is better from GGO's author. Now, I've never watched/read SAO, but I heard it's full of flaws so I guess that's not a high bar to cross. I am enjoying watching GGO so far. It's not a masterpiece, but it does a decent job of having fun moment-to-moment scenes and sequences that plays on the game mechanics and themes of VR gaming in general. I also think it helps that it doesn't take itself too seriously most of the time so it's easier to watch it as PUBG the anime.

I knew how it will end but it was still a really really cool episode. Wonder how much of their budget went into these last two episodes lol.
