Re: AP 705 - Demon Lord
I think I'm going to have to go with Mao from Maoyu ( Maoyū Maō Yūsha , or " Demon King and Hero "). She is an adorable twist on what a "demon lord" is supposed to be like, breaking every trope that the titular hero, Yusha, was expecting. She proves rational, intelligent, witty a...

Re: AP 704 - AMV's
I got nothin'. I do love a boatload of OP's and ED's for Anime series. I have purchased multitudes of Anime soundtracks as well. But I can't think of any AMV's in particular, especially third-party produced content, that have yet to get me to remember them. Not really my thing. Perhaps one day somet...

Re: AP 703 - Spring 2021
Of the new shows that we are watching and enjoying eagerly, I think Ijiranaide, Nagatoro-san is the primary series this season. It's pretty much a cringe-fest and often quite painful to watch, but it has its moments. And yes, we do find ourselves laughing. https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/anime/19...

Re: AP 702 - Best Buy
Of course, any blu-ray/DVD purchase of a favorite series or movie comes to mind. But I think I'll list my answer for a non-media purchase. In that light, I would say the limited edition die-cast model of the Swordfish II from Cowboy Bebop is my favorite, as it sits proudly up on my mantel. (I still ...

Re: AP 701 - Buyer's Remorse
Back when my kids were heavy into World of Tanks and, by extension, Girls und Panzer , we watched the series religiously. Yuuuuge fans. The OVA's started being made for Japan's audience in the subsequent years, but never seemed to be making their way to western shores. And the second we heard the OV...

Re: AP 700 - Best of AP
I fondly remember the jibes and other interactions between Ichigo, TC and Joseph (then going by his Red Unit 10 handle). Both Ichigo and TC were careful to keep their more junior co-host in his place, like one would an uppity younger sibling, IYKWIM (funny looking back upon now that Joseph is the le...

Re: AP 689 - Bad Plot Points *SPOILER WARNING!
The first one that came to mind for me was Guilty Crown . The series was produced by Production I.G., which is usually a sign of a good show, and it started out with good character design (I love Redjuice's work, in general) and world-building that I found mostly interesting, enough that I was willi...

Re: AP 698 - Favorite Fan Service
I'm going to go with the seemingly obligatory Beach/Swimsuit episode, where we get to see our characters behave in scanty clothing for dubious plot reasons. The alternative to this, and serving similar purposes, is the Onsen/Hot-springs resort episode, again with the characters scantily clad -- or m...

Re: AP 697 - Annoying/Bad Quirks
The first thing that comes to mind is Asta of Black Clover -- his persistent gutteral yelling and loud vocalizations All. The. Time. -- even when it is not warranted. This might be because (before I trailed off of watching it due to fatigue) I was watching the dub. The English VA was more than ready...

Re: AP 696 - Non-Asian Cartoons
I have had a love of Animation since the earliest recollections of my life. It's why I am an Anime fan, and why I am here on AP. I can name dozens and dozens of great animated works outside of Asia. But I need to keep it short (plus, this is the second time I had to write this post, due to a malfunc...
