    Started that on Episode 1, and not bad. Some bad music choices, and spotty dialogue, but cool backstory and plot.

    Idk if it can even be called an “anime” since it’s a French and American production

    Interesting, you watching dub or sub?

    Dub was not a problem for me it’s just that I couldn’t immersive myself knowing the setting and characters. Funny coming from an avid anime watcher I know. Sucks that the sub is only available on Netflix.

    Anime/Manga are such risky mediums... People are complaining about it, that some authors keeps sexualizing children characters, but people refrains to critisize that stuff most of times

    this season is actually kinda fun

    1st ep impressions

    tortured princess - character acting chads win again. very expressive and loose animation which is what i generally prefer.

    metallic rouge - it looks boring. its just a blob of grey with no colour contrast or saturation

    dungeon meshi - this will end up as triggers worst anime in the last decade. ya, you could say that on a technical level its competent, but it feels incredibly bad for some very capable creatives to be neutered by the fact that they want to/need to follow the manga panels. if the ikarashi episode is just sticking to the manga panels i will give up all hope

    mato seihei no slave - it doesnt look good at all and idk why im still watching this when ive already read the manga

    witch and the beast - i dont really care about any of the action scenes but the two leads have a fun enough dynamic. whether or not that dynamic gets explored further or given a bigger spotlight kinda makes or breaks this for me.

    weakest tamer - yamauchi is a god

    wrong way to use healing magic - inukami is girl of the season and i hope it stays fun and not serious

    sign of affection - cute

    bucchigiri - best of the season so far but that was kinda expected when i saw utsumi directing. the colours are vibrant, the background art is good, and the animation is so expressive. theres a ton of personality here. really concerning that they needed 9 ADs to get the first episode out the door though. this show also helps support my theory that very few ppl actually give a f*** about studios. they just mindlessly praise whatever studio works on their favourite manga/the most marketed show of the season. this is a really good show so far but none of the self-proclaimed mappa fans are watching it. if a studio like silver link was the one who produced csm you would probably end up with a bunch of ppl proclaiming the studio to be the best in the industry

    I don't think people generally know what studio animates what if it's not advertised correctly.

    S*** Mappa had to have a crazy ass logo intro for Hell's Paradise to know Mappa is involved somehow. And that's on top of the fact that the Mappa sweatshop meme was at peak levels with CSM and AoT

    You watch Gushing over Magical Girls?

    also I doubt the Ikarashi episode will follow the panels to a T, he’s way too creative to not do something out of the norm. The preview stills look completely off model too (per usual).

    The show is done mostly by the Trigger Fukuoka studio which is all the young guys (their first time doing a full production rather than just in-betweening and outsource KA iirc). They will get better as animators/storyboard artists, but if they keep a quality like this into later shows (and have substandard direction) if I was being pessimistic and mean I’d say Trigger’s future animation/directorial department is cooked.

    I think wrong way to use healing magic would be better if - everyone in the world was mentally delayed so it makes the MC look like the smartest person alive, the other heroes hated him, a female character threw a fake rape allegation his way and if the MC bought a child slave but actually its okay because technically he saved her.

    Anyways I like this trio, Inukami is a real gamer girl and if the anime sidelines them imma be upset
