Stigweard Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Episode 54 AOT Spoiler Captain Levi taking down the Beast Titan was so fucking good. I wish they'd just bloody kill the humans inside though. Everytime they have a chance they wait too long. But that was an awesome scene regardless, Levi is awesome. edit Spoiler ARMIN 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Not in terms of design, but in its general flakiness? I'm getting it cut out all the bloody time at the moment. Really annoying! it’s really bad. They ditched a bunch of their apps and still can’t get the few they have to work. On 13/01/2021 at 22:28, Benny said: I found it does feel like the setup to an epic multi season series though, so I'm not sure if it's planned to continue as it was just getting going. The manga feels like it’s winding down, there’s 23 volumes so far. Season one of the anime covers up until about half way through volume 8 so there’s plenty left to cover. It changes a lot from that point though. On 13/01/2021 at 23:01, Benny said: Although, for large parts of it it does seem to completely forget that women exist.

It really was, especially as Zeke Spoiler completely underestimated Levi and then suddenly it dawns on him that he's getting utterly destroyed by one man. Looked bloody amazing too. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Keyboard Koala Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 One of the nominees of this year's Crunchyroll anime awards for best new series. Which is where it caught my eye. Looks like a promising new series indeed - introducing Appare-Ranman! : Quote Set around the start of the Meiji era in Japan. An eccentric inventor and second son of a respected merchant family, Appare Sorano, decides one day to set off on an adventure. However, the samurai Kosame Isshiki is tasked with keeping Appare's eccentric behavior in check. While trying to drag Appare back to Japan, Kosame accidentally strands them both at sea, until they are saved at the last moment by a passing American steamship. Now stuck in Los Angeles with no money and no easy way to return to Japan, Appare and Kosame decide to enter the "Trans-America Wild Race," where Appare gets the chance to build a custom automobile and Kosame gets the opportunity to earn enough money to return home. The two of them will have to work together while fighting off other rival racers, bandits, and other challenges as they try to win the race. Link to post Share on other sites

This didn't work out at all and I've watched all of Season 4 thats available and now I have to wait till the 25th for the next episode *cry face* Caught up on it all in less than a month. Been loving it. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Benny Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 I'm not sure why I decided to watch an episode of Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress, but anyway it couldn't have ripped off Attack on Titan more if it tried. But with added weeb characters. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

No idea how they are going to finish this in a single series, unless it's 30 episodes long. Link to post Share on other sites
JohnC Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 I saw somewhere that this final season will be in two parts. Link to post Share on other sites
Broker Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 It will be broken into two parts again like the last season. But the manga has also moved at a really blistering pace recently. Link to post Share on other sites

Stigweard Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Quite. Just watched this weekends epsiode and it was bloody great Spoiler I love how battlehardered all the Scounts are now, it's not just Mikasa, Hange and Levi. Sasha and Jean perticularly have seriously hardered up. I will say though, it seems long overdue for one of the main Scout characters to die. Not that I want that to happen really, but back in season 1 it felt like anyone could end up dead but now they all seem to escape, there isn't that sense of dread anymore. But I also think thats kind of by design, as they have learnt and evolved in their fight skills and with thier new weapons to take down Titans more effectively. I have no idea how this goes as I've not read the Manga, but Levi getting the better of The Beast Titan twice now is filling me with dread that he's not going to survive the next meeting. Do not want him to die at all cause he's bloody awesome. Case in point. Without even breaking a sweat. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I’ve been watching it and thought the first episode was good but it’s dragging now and hitting ever square going on the anime cliche bingo card. Link to post Share on other sites
cassidy Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Well Demon Slayer is a bit good isn't it. Very high quality animation in the first two episodes and some evil dead levels of madness as well. I'm in. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
cassidy Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Though I do have a fair few issues with it. Considering what they do to the main female character. Fuck it. It's really bloody sexist tbh. Here's this strong female who can only exist in the context of the story as long as she is feral and muted. Japan's a bit fucked up tbh. Link to post Share on other sites

I agree, and yet it’s been the biggest selling manga of the last few years, even out selling One Piece. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
