I dropped it after the reveal that happened around chapter ~100,
I felt it cheapened all the tension and the entire premise.

5th year in a row. -.-
Sounds it's Japan's version of 17 Again.
Man who is nearly thirty is turned into a high schooler in appearance only, then proceeds to hang out with high schoolers.
Suspect subject matter further made questionable that this is an anime adaptation of a manga.
That's a good start.

As someone who is reading the manga, you're wrong on both fronts.
There is a romance, but for spoiler reasons I can't say, it isn't creepy. Well... It might seem like it at first, but trust me, it's not.
edit: from what i can tell, the anime won't get to the point where it gets to that... i'll watch and if it doesn't, i might clarify for people who are curious in a spoiler tag.

I can't stress enough how much I want Regalia to be good.
2D super robots may play roles here and there in a show like Concrete Revolutio, but it's not a show specifically about the robots. It's about the superheroes. As good as that show may be (from what I've seen from the first four episodes), it's not what I'm looking for.
Regalia, from what I understand from the PVs, seems to be placing the giant robots at the front and center of the plot, which is what I want to see. I want a good story about giant 2D super robots doing crazy giant super robot things, and the effects those robots have on the main characters.
Say what you will about Regalia having the most generic character designs out there, it's nailing it with its mecha designs for me.
Look at these things. I can't wait to see them in action in all their 2D giant robot glory.
Please deliver the goods with this Regalia. Don't let me down like Comet Lucifer did.

Okay, from what I know about it it sounded like he wants a 2nd chance to get a better job or career because his life was going nowhere. I haven't heard anything about romance or any of that stuff.

Truth/Fact
Whew, last exam of the semester is over, and the semester project presentation yesterday was received very favorably with remarks in the line of "Best presentation of the day" and "When can I buy it on Steam?". Feels good.
And today best character made his appearance in JoJo, what a better way to start summer break.
...Until monday at least, because there are still some assignments that need to be finished this month, but anyway summer break is here.

nintendo, man, it's great to be positive but you're probably setting yourself up for dissapointment. It's better to go in with no expectations for something unknown and watch the first episode. Worst case, it wasn't good and you'll just move on. Best case it's a pleasant surprise.

The 97 anime showed how much you can utilize simple pans over stills image and be able to capture an impression.
Just look how beautiful many of them are (spoilers obviously)

I feel like I'm being taunted here by the industry. Almost every single new 2D Super Robot show made in the last few years have been nothing but disappointments. Captain Earth, GBF TRY, etc.
I'm approaching this with more cautious optimism than I was with Comet Lucifer, but the PVs keep showing me the kind of mecha stuff I want to see, which fills this sliver of hope in me that maybe, just maybe, this can be good.

I could think of another routes this thing is in but I'll keep those ideas to myself before someone ends up telling me that I'm right and it spoils the entire show. The bit you gave me was enough to tell me that it won't be generic when it comes to how the events will unfold. So yeah I'm excited

Not a fan of Regalia's mecha design, looks too busy.

Rather than drink during these times, I indulge myself in JAM Project Mecha AMVs to remind myself what I love about mecha.
Not sure what you mean by that. I'd describe something like Aquarion EVOL's mechs as "busy". These mechs seem more restrained in terms of their design.

It's listed for Monday, but there was an early screeing/broadcast of it? Spoilers and discussions are popping up all over the place online for Masou Gakuen HxH, which is set to start on Wed.

ReLIFE Episode 2
Oga is smart and very attractive and friendly, what more could anyone want.
I like how he is so warm to Arata. Arata actually fits into high school perfectly especially all his awkward moments, I never get tired of them.

kabaneri of the iron fortress 12 END
ummm,,,is that it? nothing left?
WTF is this ending?
it's just like they giving hope on this anime
a mad man decide to kill an entire town just because they fear the dead?
and after all that he inject ikuma with the white blood to save him?
i don't even know.

Have you seen Macross Plus perchance ? I never see you mention that one and though not 100% the brand of mecha you prefer, it still seems like a better bet than what I dare say looks like an unbridled shit but now with robots the anime.

That's probably what it sounds like, like some special event or something.
What's the first airdate for New Game on what channel?
Flying Rifle Witch.

I've only heard nothing but negative things about Macross Plus.
I'm sticking with Delta for now when it comes to that franchise and eventually 7.

It's beautiful.
And she's practically naked.
This looks like fucking GATE art mixed with Flying Witch elements.
thx evilkatarn
This is why you should watch shows instead of letting people decide for you based on their hot takes. Yeah, there's some questionable stuff in Plus but there's also a lot of good things like the YF-19, the filght animation, the Koji Morimoto Sharon Apple concert, the OST, etc.
That's fantastic and terrible.
This is that WW2 magical girl thing right? Because my god I'm up for creepy anime bullshit fighting Hitler.
