The Tatami Galaxy started slow, ended strong. Takes some level of commitment to get through it because the themes aren't immediately made clear and the heavy dialogue is offputting at first, but once you start picking up on the patterns and realize where it's headed the payoff is great. Kind of anime that won't appeal to everyone - would understand anyone dropping it after episode 1 or 2, but those that do enjoy it will put on their favorites list because it speaks to them personally.

If I watch it again knowing what's happening in the early episodes it's probably a 10. Giving it a 9 until I do.

Tatami is one of my fav anime. I had to check out Yuasa, Masaaki's other series such as Kaiba, kemonouzme, devilman crybaby because of it and it did not disappoint.

:wow:

I still can't get over how a Tatami mat is used as an elaborate metaphor for being stuck in life, scared to move beyond the comfort zone of what you know. Took something simple and connected it to principles that everyone struggles with at some point.

need to watch Kaiba, Kemonouzme. Ping Pong is still my favorite thing from him. About what and what with Ikuhara for best director.

Inuyasha was a pretty easy sell on the east coast atleast because that shyt would come on RIGHT as you woke up in the morning to get ready for school, even if you didnt like it you saw the entire series regardless


The sheer amount of times i've woken up to this classic theme :ohlawd:



That was my shyt in the 2005. :ohlawd:

That's what i realized about Masaki Yuasa, he loves using metaphors and colors in a brilliant way.

Kaiba is amazing and not your typical anime. a lot of ppl are put off by it because of the art style but i find it to be perfect because its different like Aku no hana. The series is mature and deals with a lot of interesting themes which surrounds the overarching theme of memory.

Gonna watch the final 2 episodes of Paranoia Agent...the only time they really had me :picard:

When some old guy, a gay guy & a little girl tried killing themselves in a comedic fashion
Lil Slugger had me shook.

Also, I've been watching Asobi Asobase



This character is basically "Why fukkin me?" in human form. Like dealing with people on the regular

Asobi Asobase :wow: These mean girls are like the Trio of Death. Plus one of them has a butler who got jumped and got his a$$hole replaced with a railgun.
