It’s that time of week again in that it is a new week, which means a new general thread. This is the penultimate thread of 2023 and I am very, very sick. So, I am looking forward to all your anime opinions from the past year! Some example discussion prompts might be:
- The best anime I watched this year is Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood. I rewatch it every year so that I can always say that. Checkmate!
- So what if Frieren had a dance scene? Beauty and the Beast did it first - 32 years ago! Frieren is so overrated.
- I don’t understand how I got sick since I always carry an umbrella with me to avoid getting even a little bit damp from rain. Has anime lied to me about what causes illness?
As always, remember to be mindful of spoilers. If you want to know more about how to handle spoilers in this community, check the guide here.
I am slowly catching up with apothecary diaries. I am leaving frieren for later, better time.
I’ve been watching the one piece anime, and tried out the manga after realizing how much the anime disrespects your time with glacial shounen battle arcs, 3 and a half minute long OP sequences, and painfully long recap sections. I then swapped back to the anime with the power of “just skip entire episodes and the first 5 minutes” and it’s been much better. If you miss something important (unlikely during battle arcs), the painfully long recaps at the start will cover it on whatever episode you come back on.
It was Chopper’s VA that got me back, mostly. And the music.
Check out Onepace it’s one piece but cut down on filler stuff
Thanks for this. My wife wants to get into the anime but the sheer number of episodes is overwhelming. We were hoping to find something like Naruto Kai and indeed there is one.
