I can't believe Dragonball Super only has six episodes left. Expect much sakuga.

Started Shinsekai Yori earlier. It's... hard to describe, while always sustaining an eerie atmosphere. It feels off somehow, all the time. You know something isn't right, but you can't really pinpoint it.

" I fucking loved Shinsekai Yori. Been busy, haven't been able to watch almost anything. Only one I'm up to date with this season is Overlord. Other than that I've tried Citrus. I was looking forward to a good yuri romance, but it's a bit too.. rape-y. Also gave Killing Bites a try just for shits. Don't think I'll watch any more of it. Other than that, I've got to give Cardcaptors, Violet Evergarden, Nanatsu no Taizai S2 and Darling in the FranXX a watch this season. You make my ochinchin go doki doki.

Citrus looks shit. Well-made shit, but still shit. I draw the yuri line at Illya.
Kumamiko is a hard pass. Started alright but ends...badly. Shirokuma no cafe is superior in every respect. Kakegurui hitting netflix today. That'll be a nice binge. Fate/Extra was so Shaft it hurt. Loved reading the butthurt Fatefa...tragics' reactions to it. They thought they were getting a more pure, Ufotable-style Fate after A1 'let them down' with the far more dynamic Apocrypha, but no, of course they got SHAFTed. LOL. At this point, I am not sure I'll enjoy Extra more than Apoc. They're both two studios doing something pretty new with the Fate concept. Apoc drew a hard line between normal combat and Servant combat, embracing in full the kinetic madness of Servant combat. Looks like Extra is going to blend a Monogatari style tilted perspective and the more unhinged Fate lore concerned Seraph, recurrence and the Moon Holy Grail War. Which seems about right. My main takeaway from both shows is Ufotable's dedication to staying on-model appeals more to VN fans than crazy action animation (A1) or subtle facial expressions (Shaft). Which is to say they're less animation fans and more character fans. Surprise, surprise. Slow Start is still my CGDCT dosage for the week. Speaking of, Sorayori? Cute Girls Doing Cold Things. Yeah, I'm here all week. Pretty bummed about the upcoming break for Sangatsu due to the winter olympics. DarliFra better up its game soon. This week's was positively standard. https://linktr.ee/wjameschan -- everything I've ever done worth talking about, and even that is debatable.

I'm done with shinsekai yori. In more ways than one.
Yes, I think it's a good or even great series, but it's not something I would ever want to rewatch for two reasons: 1. The story would be just plain boring now that I know all the twists 2. While it may seem contradictory, some aspects are still disturbing enough to keep me away If you're into horror/suspense stuff, I can highly recommend it. It does have a few weird moments though...
spoiler (duh)
For example episode 6 I think. Where everyone was suddenly gay. That was kinda awkward, since it came absolutely out of nowhere... it just made no real sense, even with that small amount of explanation we got before.
Now I once again have to look for something... maybe ao haru ride or akatsuki no yona. They've been on my list for a while now... or a good amount of shaft being shaft with soredemo machi wa mawatteiru. Hmmm, difficult choice. I make dumb builds, therefore I am.

8 eps done of Kakegurui. This is a treat. Hayami Saori was the PERFECT pick for Yumeko.

I decided to start death parade instead (funny how I always end up with something I originally didn't even consider xD). So far it's rather interesting, kinda reminds me a bit of what little I've seen of hell girl so far in a way. I might not be able to do it in one go, and even if I do, I'm gonna need some really strong feel good series afterwards. I've seen some dark shit these last 3 days o_o

" I fucking loved Death Parade. The OP and ED are fucking amazing. There's also Death Billiards if you want a .. sidequel? You make my ochinchin go doki doki.

Yeah, it's big news. All that talent will be absorbed into other studios but without the man directing them they'll probably languish for the most part. We'll see. Wanpack *truly* saved anime, often on a weekly basis.
__ Finished s1 of Kakegurui. That was delightful. https://linktr.ee/wjameschan -- everything I've ever done worth talking about, and even that is debatable.
