Random Anime Dinnertime has now been replaced with watching our daily episode of Mushi-Uta (up to EP 6 now, I think), and it's been okay-ish so far. The way the show barely explained anything at first kept us hooked, even in spite of the plot not being amazing by any means. Guess we'll keep on watching until things get downright stupid/boring or the end of the series, whichever comes first.

God Eater - 9
This is getting really interesting. Soma backstory and more background information about Aragami and God Arcs.
Fuck that doctor, though.
They showed a preview of episode 10 at the end, so they won't just end it here, right? Do we know when and how the last 3 episodes will be available?

First Nanatsu no Taizai and now this bullshit. I seriously hope this is a mistake on Funimation's part and not a leak. God knows what would happen if a Tokyo Ghoul Re adaption happened in 2016. This day has not been going so well for me.😌
I still believe A-1 will rush it considering they blitz through 103 chapters. Then again it could be anime original.

I don't think Re is very good anyways so they can butcher it for all I care tbh.

I guess we can agree to disagree.
I'm just worried that the series doesn't have enough chapters for another season.

The second season of Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu ka?. The first season was pretty good, it's similar to Kinmoza.
This can't be real, right...?
What Tokyo Ghoul needs isn't another butchered adaption, it's the Brotherhood/HxH 2011 treatment...
I feel sorry for Ishida Sui, the guy puts a huge amount of work into everything and Pierrot (or whoever is responsible) just shits over him and butchers everything (talking about the script he wrote for Root A and how they ignored like 95% of it) .

Homura should be number 1 on that list.

Ishida Sui was interviewed about the anime and all he said was nice things about it. Granted he probably couldn't say anything negative about it but still the amount of butchering his series got is bad. Then again that's what happens when you hire an Oscar nominated Director to direct your series who's so full of himself.
The guy really deserve a lot more recognition for the amount of work he puts out. Anyway hopefully Nanatsu no Taizai doesn't get butchered like Root A.

Gangsta End
I haven't kept up with this subpar show, but I wanted to see how it ended, and of course it's a shitty cliffhanger.

Yea I just finished this too. For fuck's sake. They didn't resolve jack shit. Not a single god damn thing.
Fucking advertisements.

Is GATE finished for the season? I just caught up with the most recent episodes, what a weird Japanese otaku wetdream.

Arslan 25 END
Can this get a second season since the manga is so far behind and will probably be in 2018 before its even caught up to episode 25.
Decent end. My Silver Mask (Arslan MVP award) got all super epic and seems prepped to still be the final boss of the whole series, Elam is still epic (best character of Arslan award), and KENN got a fantastic set of lines (best voice of Arslan award).
Music was its weakness, there was nothing memorable in OST or even in OP/ED.
8/10.

Thanks! I thought it would be picking up next summer, so that's good news to me. I can't wait to find out how many more ways America is evil and Japan's SDF is the bestest military in the world.

Lol, very nice. Too bad they fucked up that relationship too. Ugghh.
Anyhow, has anyone here played Valhalla Knights 3 on Vita?
Clannad 7-8: Yukine Arc
Finally, some real fighting! Hell yeah motherfucker!
As an emotional arc, this one is pretty weird. Yukine has always been an incredibly flat character, and that doesn't change here. She's kind to everybody and wants them all to get along. She even surpasses Nagisa in her banal Yamato Nadeshiko-ocity.
So involving her with these West Side Story-esque gangs that only seem to exist to hang out and fight each other just brings out her most boring traits. She helps everyone. Everyone likes her. She wants them to stop fighting.
It's just not very interesting. Like, it's dumb that the gangs can't make up, but the way they act is just as unrealistic.
This arc is also yet another sequence where the leads have pretty much no agency as they're pulled along by circumstances and coincidence, culminating in a fight that only happens because of a slapstick comedy gag. It's also yet another arc where one wonders what the heck any kind of authority figures in this town are doing. Are known violent gang members just regularly running in and out of the local high school?
Rival gang leader Sasaki, voiced by Daisuke Ono (who would go on to voice Jotaro in the recent Jojo TV series), is the secret hero of the arc. What a badass.
Not looking forward to whatever bullshit the light orb legend at the end of the episode sets up.

She assumes her deceased brother, who she admits to not knowing very well before his passing, also wanted this.

I can rest easy now. I guess there will be a season break though which kinda breaks the momentum.

The Heroic Legend of Arslan 25-End
She's the cutest little tsundere holy warrior.
Arslan, it's been a weird journey. You started out great, then kinda burned out. Then it became an Lord of Rings-esque adventurer. Which was fun. Then you had a largely predictable, but enjoyable midway twist.
Then you go into the dessert for the arc that's totally pointless, and feels like filler. Only it's not filler apparently.
And here after the final big battle, despite all the problems, which there are a lot, I find myself hoping it gets another season. Because it's on the verge of becoming a great show again, and not the frustrating up and down slip and slide you've been.

Eh, at least it looked good.
Lenka also looked good, he's kinda wasted on this franchise.
Will watch when this is resumed, I kinda like it.

Gangsta 12-End
REALLY BANDAI? MANGLOBE? That's the ending?
That's where you thought, yeah, we can stop here, no problem.
This is one of the worst read the manga ending I've seen in a long damn time.

One of the main characters is just bleeding out, and it ends. No closure with anyone! That's the end. Because fuck you! Fuck the viewers! Fuck everything! Read the manga.

Wow this show has just kept going downhill due to production issues and the story putting up questions that aren't getting answered. I'd hope for an ending that left me wanting more but it just ends like it isn't even the last episode. It's just another anime that advertises the manga. Fuck.
Actually, it does, the OVAs go a bit further but still stop at a certain point.

Anohana Special
Well I wish they had made new music but then during keyscenes I was glad the op and ed song were able to be used smartly in this. Didnt offer anything new and everyone seemed a bit more accepting and fast on it instead of dwelling in disbelief for a bit. Casting could have been a bit better as no one really looked as pretty as their counterparts in the anime except for Yukiatsu.
I creyed.

I was considering watching Gangsta this season.
I can now say I don't regret my decision to pass on it.
