Re: What are you watching/reading 2024?
The manga Two on Ice was given the axe by Shonen Jump. Honestly, despite the pacing issues(the story started off slow at first, then timeskipped near the end), it was a pleasant read. The ML and FL had good chemistry together, although there wasn't any romance. It deserved better.

Re: What are you watching/reading 2024?
Finished the manga Otonari ni Ginga(A Galaxy Next Door). It's a pleasant, low stakes read where everyone mostly gets along, and is sensitive(perhaps overly so) to other's feelings. As per Gido Amagakure's style(He also did the most excellent Sweetness and Lightning), the manga doesn't go into heavy ...

Re: What are you watching/reading 2024?
I think I saw a notice that 2nd Cutest Girl in Class was getting an anime; I think I was intrigued enough about the premise that I put the anime on my "Plan to watch" list. I think the manga(which in itself is an adaptation of a light novel) was on MAL's must read list.

Re: What are you watching/reading 2024?
Added Mysterious Disappearances to the list for a three ep trial; this one has the potential to be a good mystery. There was a lot of outrage on MAL decrying censorship(naughty bits weren't in the anime). If that's the main reason those people are watching the show, then they should just watch henta...

Re: What are you watching/reading 2024?
An unexpected addition: Tonari no Youkai-san. Has a Natsume Book of Friends vibe to it that goes beyond just a show with yokai in it.

Re: What are you watching/reading 2024?
Honestly, there isn't a whole lot to The Fable so far, and I suspect it's not ever going to be confused with Frieren. However, it's a serviceable and simple show.

Re: What are you watching/reading 2024?
Slime S3 is more of the same ol', same ol'; mostly exposition and worldbuilding. There's enough characters on there now that I have to think "who is that character, and should I care?" quite often, almost too often.

Re: What are you watching/reading 2024?
I don't quite know what to make of Hananoi-kun to Koi no Yamai yet. I like the FL; she's level headed and self aware, for the most part. The ML is too one dimensional, however. I'll give it a couple more eps to see what it does, and if the ML becomes a little more "normal". Yuru Camp S3 is fine. Rin...

Re: What are you watching/reading 2024?
I read Kamisama ga Uso wo Tsuku . It was good but dang. The older kids are eleven years old, right? That's a lot of responsibility. I thought the mom was kind of useless at first, but she turns out to be pretty cool. This would make into a good OVA if done by a fledgling up and coming studio that w...

Bartender is a cool and chill anime, at least it was the first episode. Yuru Camp for adults, perhaps? :' )

Re: What are you watching/reading 2024?
Spring season has started! First up is Train to the End of the World I wasn't planning to watch this, but enough positive reviews piqued my curiosity, so I watched the first episode. It's okay. I will give it 3 to give it a chance to cook, though. The Spice and Wolf reboot looks good, and sounds won...

Re: What are you watching/reading 2024?
Finished two more anime, and I don't think my feelings for them could be any more different. If I knew how Ragna Crimson ended, I wouldn't have started it in the first place. Very tropey characters and plot, animation looked clunky at times, ect. On the other hand, I could not recommend Dangers in m...

Re: What are you watching/reading 2024?
Finished Apothecary Diaries This was a most excellent adaptation of the manga. Can't wait for season 2! The last episode of Tomozaki was great; I do wish the whole S2 were done as well as that. They also made an 12 chapter alternate universe version called Minami Nanami Wants to Shine. It's not as g...

Re: What are you watching/reading 2024?
365 Days to the Wedding is getting an anime; I remember vaugely reading some of it a couple of years ago. Still, it left a favorable impression on me, so I'm going to give the anime a shot when it debuts later this year.

Re: What are you watching/reading 2024?
Wrapping up a couple of anime.... Not denying Freiren is an excellent anime, but it's not an all-timer for me. Quality-wise, it reminds me of Made in Abyss. For me to give it a 10, a show has to have me really emotionally engaged, and Freiren didn't do it strong enough. A Sign of Affection was OK, t...

Re: What are you watching/reading 2024?
I don't think the endgame is the level of smoochiness between the main couple, it's getting Tsukasa to be mortal again. Now getting to that point is like watching Africa and South America drift apart, but it has mostly been a fun ride so far, IMO.

Re: What are you watching/reading 2024?
Just came across another 16 chapters of High Score Girl Dash. I always thought Koharu Hidaka got the short end of the stick in the original; here, she gets a lot more character development, which just wants me to empathize with her even more. The last arc that I finished(which took me to #38) remind...

Going from reading the Bottom Tier Character Tomozaki LN to the anime is like going from grandma's chicken n' dumplings to chicken flavored cup ramen.
