Re: AP 846 - Elves

I got to come to the table with a newcomer at least for the anime portion of the series, with Delicious and Dungeon's Marcile. I'm only six episodes into the show so far and while most of the gags around her consist of suffering, her fortitude and dedication make her a talk to your elf waifu. Her ge...

Re: AP 845 - Anime Music (By Association)

Allow me to introduce you to the skill of Shaolin, the secret technique of Shadow boxing. And if you don't know that intro line to one of the greatest Raekwon songs of all time Guillotine (Swordz) then you're missing out. Put this over any serious fight scene and you got yourself a masterpiece. It's...

Re: AP 844 - Flashback (please no)

I'm going to take a page from the DBZ fans and pick Jiren's backstory. From the first time we see him, Jiren radiates strength and coldness. Watchers can easily see how intimidating a foe he will be for Goku and the others, but then we get his backstory and not only is it generic it's just really do...

Re: AP 843 - Winter 2024

At least from my point of view, and not having any access to all the streaming anime sites, this season has a lot of feel good junk food shows. But there are some ones to watch out for. I'm really digging Metallic Rouge's vibe as well as it's music, as well as the apothecary diaries which is probabl...

Re: AP 842 - Biggest Anime Regrets

My biggest anime regret is that I will never be able to see Garzey's Wing. I've always heard that this was Tomino's greatest failure, that the plot didn't make any sense, sunrise with shoe warning stuff in that wasn't part of the original work because Gundam was so popular and that it was only three...

Re: AP 840 - Story Held Back by Animation

The seven deadly sins. While it's story did get worse as it went on that didn't happen for a good couple of seasons, the first thing to drop was the animation quality. I'm not even sure what happened were they just pushing the animators to just churn out episodes or did they have to lay off employee...

Re: AP 841 - And just for fun, food!

This is a nice topic, and one I never considered June before what is expanded my idea repertoire. I would have to say something like The Apothecary Diaries would taste like high class Chinese food, something like a peking roasted duck with hot rice or hot lo mein on the side and roasted broccoli for...

Re: AP 838 - When Animation Holds Up Story

I'm going to have to go with Vampire in the Garden. The visuals of two war-torn races are stunning and appropriate for the setting, however the story itself is a very poor through line that does not make sense when you stack up all the elements of world building, characterization and the setting its...

Re: AP 837 - Anime Wishes 2024

The main wish is for the industry to get better about paying and treating it's artist and workers. From Zom 100, to even Jujutsu Kaisen throughout the entire year we have seen shows get delayed, poorly animated, or had studio artist have meltdowns on Twitter. So my hope is that the industry does bet...

Re: AP 836 - 2024 Resolutions

My anime resolution is to watch more anime of the season. Most of the time I only watch the shows that appeal to me. But it seems like those are getting few and far between, so to spice it up a bit I vow to watch more anime even if it doesn't appeal to me I may find a gem hidden or at least somethin...
