A bit late but happy birthday /c/anime! Honestly, I owe @wjs018@ani.social a lot for revitilizing this community and for making it into what it is today. They’ve been our biggest financial contributor and have also made me aware of some significant issues with the instance in the past. Thank you for your hard work! ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ

I never thought of Spirited Away that way but now that you mention it, it does resemble isekai.

Lame. :/ Guess I’m changing my review then.

Kill la Kill

Three Days of Happiness which is actually the light novel title. The manga adaptation title is “I sold my life for ten thousand yen per year” but I like the LN title more. I recommend reading the author’s afterword in the LN if you finished the manga.

I also like The Flowers of Evil.

Persona series, maybe. The entire franchise is all about making friends, deepening relationships, and working together to fight monsters.

I saw somebody here recommend Kenshi, so I’m going to recommend RimWorld as well. It’s a colony building game, but it’s kind of anxiety-inducing lol

That’s unfortunate, but I hope the voice actors get what they want. I really love the English VAs for the new regions so I want to hear more of them. In the meantime, I’ll be using the other languages.

… and since !genshin_impact@lemmy.world doesn’t get pulls megathreads, I’ll be bragging my pulls here instead :P

The end credits mention 3DCG and motion capture so you might be right.

Surreal. Never read any of Junji Ito’s works. I’ve only seen his artworks through social media. I don’t like horror much, but let’s see how long I can keep up with this one.

I didn’t watch the livestream but I’ve had my eyes set on Xilonen since the first Natlan video. Can’t wait to get her.

Oh I think I’ve heard of this one. It’s honestly crazy what some people do over a videogame.

I’ve never read this. But reading the title reminds me of post-game League lobbies where people would drop locations for a fist fight.

I don’t think they ever push through but its pretty funny sometimes lol

I used to do beets and cmus but eventually moved to MusicBrainz Picard and Strawberrry Music Player. I sync to my phone with syncthing.

Not expecting to see this today. Those crossover outfits are really cute.

ツンデレサービス～！

At first glance, I thought they were Kronii and Reine.

This thread is like 2 months old and I’m rewatching the episodes of the threads I missed on, so let’s go through this via screenshots.

I’m pretty convinced this toilet sign is Ougi and Nadeko. I think it’s easy to forgot that Ougi is a boy now.

We finally got the opening for Nademonogatari which features both Kana Hanazawa and Saori Hayami. I don’t know if Nademonogatari is the first time I’ve heard the two together. Both their voices share this characteristic I can’t describe in English but when you hear it, you might get what I mean.

I’m certain this is a callback to an older scene in the series. Either Koyomi or Ougi meeting with Tsukihi. You can also say Akira if you’d like.

Marina Inoue sounded completey different here, obviously because this isn’t the same Sodachi we knew. She’s a lot more compassionate and sister-like to Nadeko. I didn’t even recognize her until Nadeko said so herself. I’m actually quite glad Sodachi is doing better here and didn’t turn out to be a one-off character in the series (as she kind of came out of nowhere previously).

There really is something about girls cutting their hair short when they want to change something about themselves. It’s a really interesting phenomenon that boys don’t really have an equivalent to. More interestingly I guess, this scene parallels with Hitagi and Koyomi during Mayoi Snail.

By far the shots that reminded me that Monogatari is “peak cinema”, as they say. Live action shots, somewhat reminscent of early 2000s handhelds composited with a running topless Nadeko.

I’ve finally caught up to the 7th episode of Monogatari Off Season. I wish the series was more popular but I guess it’s hard to get into for some especially when there’s 100 non-linear episodes prior to Off Season. I realized the weekly rikka thread died so I’ll try to revive that starting later tonight.

I spent most of my free time playing Persona 3 Reload the past few weeks and I’ve been considering watching the anime movies.

Also, it’s typhoon season again so I hope everyone can stay safe.

I’m gonna wait for the platinum ultimate mega collector’s anthology edition at a 90% discount after 7 years.

Yeah, that seems to be a good point. Maybe kids around the age of Seita would understand it better.
