Watched the first episode of "Grandpa and Grandma Turn Young Again".

On the surface this seems like a wholesome show, but the granddaughter and daughter-in-law thirsting for the Grandpa was :sitdown:. Even for a SoL visuals still felt pretty cheap and the direction with pacing felt off. Had a few wholesome moment, so will keep watching tho this and Etolle are the two that are on potential drop status.

Made a quick tier list of the Winter shows. Along with quick words about each of them. Honestly the quality of the shows we got at the top are insane. Also a solid amount of really good shows that went under the radar because of how much of a Juggernaut Frieren is.

Started this show The Foolish Angel Dances with the Devil. It's two idiots trying to get the other to fall in love with them. Seems like a budget Kaguya-Sama.

Watching Wind Breaker episode 1. Man Cloverworks putting the work with great fights in the first episode.Honestly for a delinquents show it was a great episode one. Something that @Bryan Danielson and @LauderdaleBoss would like. MC here is more so here finding himself. For Sakura, he was always outcast so it will be nice to see him fitting in a crowd of people that hopefully accept him.


Yes I just watched this last night

This was too easy for you!!

I definitely liked this, give yourself a challenge like you did with Frieren:lolbron:

Put me on to something more questionable with stakes again!

I like the show you win, if I don’t like it, you become GriffithSet:mjlol:


Na but Windbreaker looks like it’s gonna be a dope show. Doesn’t feel like it’s breaking new ground (thus far) but this is something definitely in me and @LauderdaleBoss lane

Is it straight forward or anything on the level of you and @twan83 typical “exotic” anime taste?

man a lot of the fukk shyt nikkas be praising don't be breaking new ground.

Sometimes a breh just wants to see some good old fashion fades with a semi decent story and characters. WindBreakers looks like it can provide that.

We need more fighting anime and less "I got hit by a car and brought back to life in another world as the strongest tooth brush" type shyt.

Watching The Fable…

I’ve seen the live action movies on Netflix and really enjoyed them. I hope this anime is as good as they are.
I was excited for this one, then saw the studio that was doing it. :francis:

It doesn't seem that it will break new ground, but that's fine. Not every show needs that to be groundbreaking. Sometimes simplicity executed well is all you need.

If I were to throw out some other new shows let me see.

  • Dungeon Meshi
  • Ranger Reject
  • Mission: Yozakura Family
  • Bartender: Glass of God

Challenge accepted eh?

Oh in fairness to you I will pick on of those shows to see if I like it.

But the stakes and consequences are what they are :lolbron:

Pretty solid episode 2 for Spice & Wolf. Holo does mention that the difference between dogs and wolves is that dogs live with humans. I also assume it the fear humans associate with wolves that they don't with dogs. But this episode really showcased Lawrence and Holo come from two different worlds. It will be interesting in how these two will coexist going forward.

This line by Holo really rings true. When someone lies there is always a reason for it. After all no one lies for the sake of lying.
