I miss this show. Haven't read enough subtitles lately.

Started watching Non Non Biyori. Probably one of the comfiest shows I've watched.

What you said there

Try Death Note, Cowboy Bebop, and Terror in Resonance. Sounds like the sort of shows that'd be up your street. Mainstream. Stylish. Compelling.

Puella Magi Madoka Magica if you're feeling patient and want something a bit more arthousey.

Princess Mononoke, Porco Rosso, Laputa: Castle in the Sky, or Perfect Blue if you just want a film.

Read Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind if you want a manga.

There's plenty of anime that are right up your alley @Jawehawk , just look up your genres of choice and take a few words from the folks here :D:tup: @Roger the Horse is on point with his above mentioned suggestions.

In other news,

I finished Prison School yesterday and man that was actually a good show, in my eyes though. Why do I say it's good? Nice artwork, funny yet well written, easy story to follow with a decent ending that doesn't require much brain power and at times it's not as predictable as you'd think it would be. Only downside is some of the fanservice which will leave you like ":odd::lol:"

The "Philosophy" in Episode 10 nearly left me in tears...

It was a fun ride indeed. @Heldenzeit ,@Not_A_Guest & @nick98 , I think you guys will enjoy it if you aren't watching it already. Courtesy of @AOS- suggestions :D

I'm excite


A new Lupin The III series?

ALL MY YES HAVE BEEN ANSWERED!!! 👍

But seriously, great news, because if there are shows that have not had a proper modern remake yet, Lupin was one of them. And since Toei is nowhere near this, then maybe we can have one of our childhood animes not actually ruined by terrible animation and wrong decision-making.
Can Jojo's Bizarre Adventures finally have a decent partner when it comes to good anime (re)conversions...?
 

Look at all those shocked faces, eh? :sly:

Also, apparently this "Shin Lupin III" debuted worldwide... starting with Italy. Now that's a surprising choice, but I bet that most Italians did not mind (@nick98 am I right?)...

Oh, and apparently Goemon is now voiced by Jotaro Kujo's voice actor in the Japanese dub. "Ore ga sabaku"... (draws sword)

Gakuto is brilliant at improvising his plans.

Mari is full of pride and honour, which makes her both likeable and unlikeable. Her indiscriminate notion that all men are disgusting perverts is what makes her the antagonist. I hope there will be a season 2 because that will go into Mari and Meiko's past with the "aboveground" student council president and the turbulent relationship they have will each other. When I read through this arc, it was at this point Mari stood out to be one of the most likeable characters for me.

True that, plus he was a humourous character to boot.

Mari huh? Interesting...

I like the sound of that season 2 prospect. I hope it does happen though because the show was actually good. I dunno if it garnered enough attention to warrant a season 2 let alone if the people in charge have any interest in doing it.

Which reminds me, can anyone recommend a good manga reader app on Android via PM? I might read the Prison School manga.

True dat! Lupin III is far and away the most popular anime in Italy; it even eclipses giants such as Dragon Ball, One Piece and Naruto! And yes, I'm also delighted for this exclusive treatment we Italians got - heck, the new season even takes place in Italy! :D

Holy heck, Lupin is a downright legendary franchise in Italy! In Portugal, Lupin is not quite up to the level of the series you've mentioned, those are the more popular ones. And I guess I should've seen the Italian connection by little things such as Fujiko's bike having an Italian license plate, and that great last few scenes where the gang is being chased by Zenigata in cardboard-esque versions of Alfa Romeo police cars (159s? Breras?). In fact, I really like the way that chase sequence ends;

I have to say, that detail is great; it's as if the producers were slyly asking" What, did you think we had forgotten about the Fiat (or in this case, the Abarth)? :sly:" The only thing about the Italian dub that makes me feel a bit doubtful is the theme song; I've read that it is a rap song with the aid of some legendary anime/cartoon Italian composer... Not sure if rap is the most fitting genre of music for a guy like Lupin, but hey, I won't question it. May this show be greatly sucessful, and that the Italy may enjoy it well. Now, if only Portugal took notice of this existing instead of just rehashing old shows... 💡
 
Well, I started watching Freezing last night and got halfway now.

So far it sticks out to me as, "If Highschool DxD attempted to be serious." emphasis on the word "attempted".

It's alright so far, it wants you to take it seriously but how can I be taking a show like that seriously when there's the same blatant Fanservice as DxD. That's what ruined it I rate. The oppai isn't bad, but it detracts from the story.

Plus the main chick looks like the other chick from Fate Stay or whatever it's called, I haven't seen it yet. Spare me
 
For anyone wondering, translated it says 'no nothing here today'.u

Edit:

Seems to be releasing by date...though mines been on 00:00:00 for about ten minutes.
