I’d never watch something you’re not into. It’s just miserable to force yourself to watch a show you don’t like. Juat because you read a manga doesn’t mean you should or need to watch its anime.

You see brain drain when educated people leave an area. So does this lead to brain rot?

Wondering if it’s not that healing magic is bad but they wanted to protect from Rose maybe? But the way they tried to show that felt really weird.

Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid falls into the fantastical slice of life genre. Interviews with Demi-Girls is probably another one in terms of the setting. Unfortunately a lot of others would be isekai. Campfire Cooking in Another World would be one such isekai. Can’t remember the others without getting on my comp.

The humor here is just right for me. Tearmoon is probably in my top 4 of each week and this week did a great job of ‘why’ that is for me. Sure it’s tropey in that she did what she didn’t want to do, but it’s the way she tries to overcome those situations that are great. And the absolute sass at the end.

Ah yeah that’s it. I’d had no issues with it, but I bet it’s getting flagged on YT even though they’re getting those sought after clicks and such. Cause I’d never click on an ad of my own choice.

I assume it’s uBlock Origin. I have that and another one that I can’t remember the name of, but it ‘clicks ads’ and you don’t see them. I disabled uBO and left the other running. Worked fine for a few videos Sunday but Monday it was throwing the ‘you can’t use an ad blocker’ again.

But I’d wager just about anything that affects YT on your end will throw that message at this point since they desperately want people to pay for premium or watch 3min of ads per 5min video.

Curious if the show will have a twist. But even if it’s just the MC enjoying a good game I’m fine with that too.

I’ve watched the 12 available episodes of Helck and yeah it’s just not for me. Feel the world building stuff with a lot of hints about big stuff (time travel is the one I’m most curious about) but don’t think I can get through the second cour.

I’ve loved “Undead Murder Farce”. It feels like that 2010ish BBC Sherlock Holmes meets supernatural creatures and I love it for that. Vending Machine was goofy fun but not the best show of the season for me.

“Helck” is probably my biggest miss. Went in blind and each episode felt pointless in terms of pacing or episodic resolution. The jokes weren’t landing for me either, but that was me.
