Q. How generous do you think the sizing is on Niniba's collection of cat pillows?

The more I watch Dokkan, the more I realize how mediocre the entire show has become. Remember in season 1 when they needed seeds to replenish their Porons? Well, now the Ojamajos can use as much magic as they want without any consequences, unlike in Season 1 where this was always a problem for them. Now, we see them wasting magical stage on the most stupid bullshit imaginable, whereas in the early seasons it was used for more complex situations. It makes me wonder why they need magical stage in the first place if each of them has a lot more magical power than they did in the earlier seasons (just imagine the conversion rate of their current seeds used to replenish their porons compared to the ones in the first season).
You know what annoys the fuck out of me? Majo Rika screaming about being in debt constantly throughout every episode, needing the girls to achieve high sales figures, but we're never told how much debt Majo Rika actually is in. We just have to assume that it's a high number, BUT WE'RE NOT EVEN TOLD IN WHAT TYPE OF CURRENCY SHE'S IN DEBT IN! We're not even allowed to know, despite the Maho Dou being shown in every single episode, how much money the store is earning for Majo Rika to be 24/7 in debt. I remember when they showed the new magical cash register in season 1, and I instantly assumed they were going to let us immerse ourselves in the details of the store. Like, I instantly thought back to that game Recettear and thought it was going to be like that game almost, but no, the magical cash register is just there. It's just standing there in every episode, and nothing happens with it. So the question I ask is, what was the point of making an episode about getting it if it's just some background prop? Why do they assume the viewer is so stupid to understand any of these details if they showed them?
Clearly, not a single person at that studio gives a single flying shit about the small details, of which there are NONE. I feel like I could go on and on about what is wrong with this series, but just fucking know that the writers really like to set a bunch of rules at first just so later they could completely forget about them.

I was too busy crying my eyes out to care about any of that.

>>399
Reminds me of watching any Kyoani Anime where they will forcibly make you bawl your eyes out so you can forget about how stupid everything else is actually.

keep in mind i only made it to episode 6
I had gotten interested in this anime because of john titor himself. I grew up listening to episodes of Coast to Coast AM and i had heard re-runs of old episodes with titor being a subject and with titor himself. I had read all of his posts online on the Coast to Coast AM BBS and the time travelers forum.

Needless to say, I'm a bit of a fan so when I heard about him being mentioned in a anime that was easily accessible to me i bit the bait. At first i was hooked, CERN? Check, One world totalitarian socialist government? Check, Titor?, Check. I especially like the labcoat guy.
>editing is obnoxious
Maybe i'm the retard but i think it has to do with time dilation
I liked the anime at first but the second they introduced the tranny i kind of zonked out. At first the sex jokes where witty but then it became an annoyance but that's just a nit-pick Maybe I should push forward anyway and see if it gets better and focuses on titor more? i think that annoyed me the most, that the focus was on stupid shit instead of saving the damn world or details on how or why shit is happening like that satellite crashing and whatever Or perhaps i should skip it and just read the VN?

How does the VN and anime differ besides the editing?
>flanderized
What does that mean?

>I liked the anime at first but the second they introduced the tranny i kind of zonked out.
Thats something the anime fucks up, specifically the dub but the Japanese version as well to a degree. Lukako in the VN is not a tranny, even if it might initially appear otherwise.
>Or perhaps i should skip it and just read the VN?
Yep, the VN is at least 10 times better than the anime. Go for the Steam translation and just push through the slice of life segments, you wont regret it. Also important to note: The sex jokes and retarded gags are mainly the anime's doing, the VN has a lot less of them.

currently watching it with some people who have seen it before, and apparently its more enjoyable the on the second watch when you notice all the clues and detail you missed.

I like the usage of humor, Its not distracting at all from the story. I like the mystery behind the main character, How they tease Kenshin's history with some characters and his place in history with the ushering of the meiji era of japan. He's lone wanderer type but quite compassionate. It's nice.

It seems like a common theme for the three chapters i've is for past actions, well intended or otherwise to come back and haunt you.
Kenshin was right in a way that kamiya should have payed attention to the people that was being taught and to watch for retards who might use what they learned for terrible reasons, Even people who seem honest take advantage of her like the old man who wanted to sell the dojo.
It was interesting to see discussions of swords like if they where modern day guns insofar you can't even carry one without getting arrested even though you are kind of safer with one, then without.
I'm assuming eventually someone from kenshins past is going to raise some hell or someone is going to come for kenshin assuming that with his death, the old era will close finally so that a new one can be ushered in but there hasn't been any hints of that yet.

The scene where they were Lina, Guorry, and Amelia pretended to be actors was great. It had all the qualities of a good play. There were special effects, audience participation, and they were acting convincing. Lina tries to hide her identity from the theater manager.

Yeah, the theater episode was pretty fun overall. One scene I liked a lot was Lina pushing Sylphiel out of the way and taking the shot for her. The small delay before her blood comes out and the way her body rolls around on the ground from the hit were great. I could really feel the impact

The Slayers ended very well with its last six episodes with Copy Rezo. When Copy Rezo was more effective, I was shocked. Rezo 1 seemed to go down relatively easily. The only big challenge with real Rezo was reuniting the crew. With Copy Rezo, it felt like they were helpless. The Fishman part with Guorry and Syphiel made whatever the goal of the story hopeless. It felt like torture when it seemed like it was going to be a while before they were going to get out of this issue, and it did take the rest of the season. The chicken in episode 22 was funny when it transformed. It seemed they didn't take them seriously, even after he became bigger. Copy Rezo seems eviler based on how he killed Eris. The final battle was good because of the unexpected things that happened, such as Lina getting shot. Overall the ending to it was satisfying and I am looking forward to the second season.

>>75
started reading the manga and the first chapter alone is pretty damn great for both the character introduction and setting. kinda funny that lina basically steals shit from people on the regular and is overally pretty edgy and guorry makes an excellent sidekick because he's basically a straight and narrow swordfighter. the interaction with the basically a never-ending round of brothers who kept avenging the previous brother over and over was pretty funny. the first four chapters are pretty quality shit. i'm wondering if there's going to be any backstory on how lina became a powerful sorcerer.

>>266
Guorry is basically along for the ride, and I'm not sure why he's friends with Lina. Lina is self-centered and kind of dumb at points, but Guorry is worse

Yukito goes to the archery class? well damn why the fuck don't they have that shit in America? I'd literally kill to do some archery.
I think it's cute that Tomoyo makes outfits for sakura to wear. Although I doubt this will ever be addressed I am curious if tomoyo's recordings will go into the wrong hands since it pretty much proves that magic is real.

>>261
As a camper, I remember trying archery and having trouble gaining confidence that you could control the bow. It would be awesome if America had stuff like that because we need more things to feel better about ourselves.

>my mother was 16 when she married my father, he was 25
Geez, that's a large age gap there.
Anyhow I'm at chapter 5 so far and when Sakura takes a plunge into the lake and almost drowns, i wonder why Tomyo didn't take her to a hospital? it would have protected her identity and having to explain the costume and how she fell in the lake in the first place. Another thing is the manga states that there's 19 cards, does the anime have the same amount?

they say the flower card is useless but you know what, if your in a bind then you'd hardly be seen by a flurry of petals.

>>259
it turns out i got rused, there's lgblt sandwich shit in the manga and it's a constant theme lol, in the dub and in the anime its apparently censored so i'm better off watching the anime.

>>252
i feel that the ending to blue gender was unsatisfactory, the bad guy is a stereotypical loon who is crazy for the sake of being crazy and his idea for staying on the space station failed and exploded at random.

I don't know about that. It doesn't look too great. Can you give me your two cents op? You only said it was successful.

No I haven't watched it and this thread doesn't really sell me on it.

(33.21 KB 220x314 )

I don't know about whatever it is you are watching, but here is the real masterpiece every 22channer should read at least one chapter of.

>>113
I was curious but sometimes curiosity kills the cat. I like demon and beast slaying, and the art and time period it was set in makes it an attractive item but i generally tend to ignore something new because "everyone likes it", "its popular" and "its new". Trends and fads are fucking gay and exhausting to keep up with. Perhaps time will tell if it is good, I intend on reading when a decade passes and there is no merch in stores, although retarded this is how i generally operate.
