Quick rundown of shows I am watching
I have been pretty busy irl this past week, so I haven't been able to post as much as normal or watch as much as I normally do. Adulting sucks sometimes :(
Isekai Suicide Squad: Been struggling on this one. It looks good, VA is good, but it's just not grabbing my attention. I thought the 2 live action movies were both fine in a B movie way, but this just isn't doing anything for me.
Delicious in Dungeon: After all the excitement I've seen for this show, I'm not feeling this much either. I haven't gotten much plot or character development, and the cooking is all about fake stuff I can't try, so that doesn't help. Some of the monsters are unique though, like the Living Armor, but I don't know if I'll do season 2 of this.
To Your Eternity: Finished season 1. Now this one was pretty good! None of the baddies feel very threatening, but the emotional damage makes up for it. Couldn't go straight through this show, had to take breaks for happy stuff.
Bakemonogatari: Very strange, and after 3 episodes, I'm not sure what I'm watching. I feel like I started on season 2 or something. All the cuts and text is odd, and the female MC whole personality seems to have done a 180 in 2 episodes.
My Deer Friend: Heard this was very weird. Watched the trailer. Gf angrily left the room 2 minutes into it, she was not a fan. I don't think it's great by any means, but I can take ridiculous in small doses. Gives me modern Bobobo vibes.
Reincarnated as a Slime S3: Background noise for me mostly. Ahead of this in the manga, and I almost dropped the manga during this stretch. Manga has caught my interest again though, so we'll stick with this.
Plus Size Elf: Enjoying this more than I expected. I probably wouldn't watch it if it was censored. It's not good enough to watch half the episode blurred out, plus having read the manga, I've seen it already. The nudity isn't even my style, it's wayyyyy too exaggerated for my taste. The voices of the characters are all super charming though, and that ramps up what fun is actually there for me. I feel they may have added in more actual fitness tips than I remember as well. The chemistry between the characters, especially the elf and dark elf is perfect. I'd be friends with all these characters, so I'm liking this one.
Also excited that Aharen is getting a S2. Was not aware of that before the other day. I watched S1 a while back along side Tomo-chan, and that was a fun combo.
I literally just finished My Deer Friend and it was awesome and disappointing that there's so little of it. Is it super new?
It's a bit of an oddball one. Many, many jokes centered on deer puns.
The anime just came out a month ago, and I just looked up the manga, and there's only about one season's worth of story out there, 37 chapters.
There should be another episode Sunday 11 AUG. I couldn't find how many eps are in this season anywhere.
It's a really oddball show. I saw it was tops on the weekly rankings so I gave it a look. To me it feels like the energy of Bobobo got shoved into Azumanga Daioh.
