This week Mob Psycho 100 has too much high power. Best chapter so far.
Crunchyroll advertised MP100 during both parts of the season 4 premiere of Ripper Street on BBC America
Iām going to assume they know something I donāt
Iām not sure what goes here and what goes in anime thread.
But Zambot 3ās last half has been pretty consistently amazing.

So after lots of lots of my friends told me to watch Bojack I finally picked up and welllā¦ is not bad, I enjoy some parts of it. But I have to put an effort to keep watching. Itās part Iām not really in the mood for another āadult life is depressingā show and because I find it really boring visually. Same models in same scenarios doing the same poses. Which I guess is part of the course for shows like this, but for some reason is more grating this time.
Finally give it a pass to Re:Zero. And yeah, itās fairly good. I definitely give it points for allowing its protagonist to do bonehead things and going āyeah, heās being an idiotā instead of passing it as noble. May get worse later, but so far the execution is good so I can keep with it.
Mob Psycho is still stellar, by the way.
Bojack horseman doesnt get good until about halfway thrpugh the first season and it gradually ramps up and seems less mediocre/generic over the rest of the series

Saw Kubo & the Two Strings on a whim, knowing nothing about it and having seen none of the other stuff that studioās made. Pretty neat movie! I enjoy films for children about suffering and death and Cool Moms. Took me an embarrassingly long time to realize that at least some of the movie was actually stop-motion animation, to go with the 3DCG emulating stop-motion animation.

Two chapters more and Re:Zero is turning to āsuffer, you bastard MCā mode. Acting like a LN protagonist is not paying off here it seems. I chuckled at the end of chapter 15 though.
I would suggest that studioās Paranorman, I really think itās an underappreciated gem.
That Drifters pilot is some repulsive violence porn that irks me more than the goriest 90s OVA. (Iām actually a big fan of gory 90s OVAs.) Probably because of the comedy bits inbetween the smashed-in heads? Or how it paints the characters as role models? Huh, maybe itās the difference between deliberate and tasteless. Iāll try to not watch it next season.
Berserk on the other hand continues to be very watchable and is revving up more and more, canāt wait for next episode! Thank god I read the manga too many years ago to remember what happens next.
controversial opinion: Battle Tendency is good, Stardust Crusaders is not
itās really pretty and i want to like it but it is just so much blander and more shonen and none of the characters have anywhere near the same charm
very tempted to just skip to arc 4, or the dio fight that arc 3 is obviously just going to build up to forever

I still like Stardust Crusaders, and thereās some good stuff scattered throughout, but itās kind of a transitional arc. Gets better as they get closer to/into Egypt.
The old 90s OAVs are really different in tone but are pretty neat on their own, if you want to skip to 6 episodes of HOT HOT HITS (ignore the late 90s ones leading up to Egypt).
Meanwhile, on a show no one cares about:
Active Raid has set up its last episode to be about a colony drop. Mostly, Iām just sad to see it go.
JUSTICE will be missed.
Mob Psycho 100 is acceptable, though they really donāt dwell on basically anything and thatās throwing me a bit
I appreciate how in ONEās stuff the characters and plots just kind of wash over you in a rate thatās too much to actually take in or remember. Itās kinda like Venture Bros on amphetamines?
Yeah, itās actually kind of refreshing - anime pacing is still generally a bit more strung out
And itās meant in this instance they can spend more on pretty remarkable action sequences
I am watching a whole lot of trash
nobody else should probably watch it, but Iām having a good time and I guess I wanted to let you all know
okay bye~
