Yahallo and welcome back to the show where i draw wild conclusions about anime based
off nothing but the first episode so as always take my opinion as fact
everything i say is the objective truth except maybe that last sentence that being said my
god has this season crushed our dreams of the perfect year of anime roll the intro i guess
didn't you read the title of the show listen lady the detective's already dead
how many times demon slayer mugen plane was one of my most hyped anime of the season
based off nothing but my love for mysteries and planes but unfortunately we didn't get
much of either instead we got this Chūnibyō girl explaining how she had already solved the mystery
long before it even started so like what are we even doing here
oh right slaying demons using her secret weapon a gun that shoots magic blood
my thoughts exactly i haven't even mentioned the main character yet who is uh wait which
one is he again is it you no you sorry he just looks so much like every other anime character
oh there he is he's supposed to be a middle school boy with no friends but i don't know
here take Hiki for example terrible posture weird hair makes sense that he's an outcast
but sidekick over here seems sociable has a sick apartment and absolutely rocks a suit i just don't
buy that nobody likes him and the soundtrack was literally done by the crazy frog himself
the show boils down to the setup of extremely surface level mysteries which are then immediately
solved by the chuni giving a classic detective speech except completely unearned there's no
foreshadowing no clues along the way and her catchphrase is literally just
that's not impressive it's just boring if you can look past the constant deus ex machina
okay just completing the thieves guild questline in skyrim does not make you a detective
and neither does flying shoes and if she's got all this stuff why does she need this dead weight
oh that's actually a really good point because he looks like every other anime
character ever but on the bright side there are a couple of pretty funny scenes
it wasn't that funny the detective is already dead makes me wish i was
remake our life or relife for short is the story of a 27 or 28 year old salary man who's
disappointed in how his life has turned out but thanks to a twist of fate he is sent back in time
exactly 10 years for a second chance at a better life so yeah it's it's re-life but all jokes
aside this one seems more focused on the protags pursuit of becoming a game designer rather than
his romantic shortcomings though i'm guessing there won't be any shortage of those either
but there's definitely room to do something new here the first episode is
weirdly 50 minutes long and to be honest the first 15 minutes could probably have been cut
whoops too far there we go that's a better place to start after having my soul crushed by a speech
about how art school is a waste of time and money i began to regret my own life decisions
and wish that maybe i could wake up 10 years in the past did it work siri what year is it
it's saturday july 10 20-. 2011 you say good year it's time to make better life decisions
anyways remake our life seems decent enough nothing really groundbreaking here but
it could be a fun watch i'll go ahead and add it to the oh on second thought next up a lull
in the aquarium the classic story of a failed idol forced to wander the streets of okinawa
until a weird fish dude comes along and steals her hat so she's forced to work at the aquarium
until she can afford a new one at least i think my japanese is a little rusty and i couldn't get the
subtitles to work though the character designs are hit or miss i guess they never miss huh
i'm so sorry everyone from okinawa seems to have a lot of life and personality compared
to the lifeless tokyo sheep which i know was the intention i just wish they would have
cheated a little bit with the main character but that's a bit nit-picky the music drives the show
forward at a really pleasant pace one of the characters is voiced by your best girl miku
and most importantly there are so many good anime expedition locations to visit i cannot
wait to go to okinawa and see the cgi fish in the meantime check out my instagram for daily anime
vs. real life comparisons much like planes and trains and i guess taxis i'm a little bit biased
when it comes to shows about water i guess but overall i've got pretty high hopes for this show
big old bop when i first saw girlfriend girlfriend i thought it was going to be this season's generic
romantic comedy but after watching the first episode i realized i was right but being the
only real harem this season i felt it was my obligation no my duty to watch it and report
my findings back so rather than do my usual little review thing i felt this would be much more useful
next up is sunny boy which can be summarized by a single image whoops sorry not that one the entire
universe has vanished into the void except for this one high school which let's be real may as
well be the plot of every high school anime but this time it's more literal and also they all
have superpowers the story follows a loner who i assume his name is sonny but i could be wrong
as they come to terms with their new reality and begin to create a new life for themselves in the
void and somehow infinite nothingness isn't enough to stop amazon from offering free two-day shipping
the art style is really cool it's got some of that special masaaki sauce but with more color
if i had to describe this show in one word it'd be what the ____ is happening so many
weird things take place in the first episode alone that i can't even begin to imagine what
they're going to do with another eleven but for now i'm definitely along for the ride
what can i say about the case study of vanitas except that i can't stand shows about vampires
that's different and you know it whatever vampires aside i also find those faux victorian worlds just
so boring okay okay i'm a walking contradiction get used to it i really did try to give this show
a fair shake watching it at only 1.5 times speed but it takes itself so seriously and tries really
hard to be like scary or intense but i don't know if it's the music or the animation but it
just misses the mark but it really doesn't matter what i think *drop* because i am not
*this show sucks* this show's target audience cute little dancing dragons on the other hand
i could watch all day kyoto animation is back with another season of miss kobayashi's dragon maid
and i really don't think i need to remind you guys this but just in case ravioli ravioli don't lewd
the dragon loli please and thank you this show is pretty much just bleach for the soul
with a uh generous layer of KyoAnie has really outdone themselves with the animation this season
dragon maid is not my favorite show in the world but looks like it'll be a fun summer anime so
bibbidi boppity bop how a realistic hero rebuild the kingdom oh alright i guess it's isekai time
but if he gets hit by a truck i'm out oh this is new he's just sort of chilling in the library okay
i guess i'm on board okay that's enough messing around it's time to figure out my priorities egg
time egg time egg time egg time one eternity later take three months off they said make a better
ending they said they asked more questions than they answered made all the characters hard work
completely pointless and they teased a second season that i bet my egg is never gonna happen
not egg at all guys not egg at all despite a few interesting prospects to carry me through the
summer this season of anime not only killed the streak but somehow managed to make last season
retroactively worse but on the bright side that frees up a lot of our time
to start making a dent in the old watch list and if you're looking for a good place to start why
not check out this video here for ideas and if you disagree with anything i said during this video
let me know in the comments why i'm a baka stew see you neets next time i gotta stop saluting
