[Week 41] Anime Questions, Recommendations, and Discussion

3 years ago by wjs018 to c/anime

Following up on some comments in the recent meta thread, I decided to be the change I want to see in the world and create a place to talk about anime that aren't actively airing.

I plan on making these posts regularly going forward on Mondays as they normally suck for most people that work M-F, so why not try to make them a little bit better? Also, in the process of making this post, I found out that there is an ISO standard that says weeks start on Monday rather than Sunday. TIL!

Just a reminder to tag your spoilers.

I watched the Icebalde magician from last season, then started to watch the Reigh of the seven spellblades. On very high level the story is very simmilar, but the later has waaaay better production quality, worldbuilding and story. After 2 minutes in both shows: Iceblade: "Super generic" Reign: "that's gonna be awesome" personal opinion

Yeah, sometimes you know right away if a show is going to be good or not. I should have heeded those feelings when I watched Am I Actually the Strongest last season. I got like 10 minutes in and was already kind of tired of it.....then proceeded to watch the whole season. This season I am getting those vibes from The Family Circumstances of the Irregular Witch. I am three episodes in and it hasn't really gotten much better. I am just terrible at dropping a show once I have started.

I still have 2-3 eps from the Box guy (Am I the strongest). I started the manga last year, so I knew the plot, but disn't follow up until I finish the anime...
