Tamer picking up Trash was the most impressive visually to me so far this season.

They wouldn't just throw a bunch of animation-budget $$$$ at a crappy plot, would they?

The tamer looks promising...
Click to expand...

The 2nd episode sold me on "Weakest Tamer picking up Trash". It has a lot of promise behind this plot now.

I wonder if Ivy will remain a "weak" protagonist, which would be extremely unique compared to all of the other Isekai. I'm still expecting her to have some kind of hidden-superpower (because that overpowered main character is one of the most consistent tropes of Isekai). But if she remains weak, then it will be somehow more unique than otherwise.

Just picked up "Spy x Family" again.
After 3 years of Duolingo Japanese, I'm actually surprised at how little I need to read Crunchyroll's subs anymore.

I'm on a Netflix anime series marathon of some kind right now. Japanese and Korean studios making some of them much better than I could ever expect from such a woke agenda pushing Netflix production.

finished movie called Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, I think it was made in 1987, but its famous... never seen it until now

I like it overall, it has a good message to it

my takeway from it spoilers:
life is short, nothing lasts forever, so enjoy moments of time of happiness fully present, don't let fear hold you back

maybe that is a misunderstanding on my part, but that's what I felt from it, beautiful art style too

Can't go wrong with a Ghibli movie, it was directed by a man that dislikes "anime" but loves producing anime.

Finished it last Sunday. It felt like they had solid material for 22 episode season one with a second season to follow maybe 2 years later but at some point studio said "F#ck it, we'll do 25 episodes just cram it all in" and second season never materialized.
Based on the reviews out there I see no reason to bother with the movies or the 2016 series. But I would love to read the original manga at some point.
