[Anime] The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya: 9/10: this was a weird one for me, for one, I thought this was a standalone fild, I did not know that you were supposed to watch The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, however, surprisingly I understood the film well enough, even if I had a very different watching experience to everyone else. HOwever this experience was positive so eh
[Manga] One Piece (Holded at volume 16): 6/10: I don't know what to say about one piece, the first time I tried reading one piece, I actually enjoyed it, read the first 10 volumes, however it didn't make me want to keep reading it, so I switched reading other stuff, after that, i've given 3 more attempts to try to finish one piece, however, the same happens, continuing from where I left, I read 2 volumes, and I just dont have the need to read anymore, it's not that I dislike it, it's just that I dont want to read it anymore
I holded it instead of dropping because I know that I kinda liked the start, so, maybe in a future I give it a fith try and this time I actually get up to date with it

Haruhi is very slow paced in general and it isn't till the movie where you start seeing noticeable development. It's sad that they didn't adapt anything further, it would have been great.Patatitta wrote:

[Anime] Initial D: First stage: 9/10: I started watching Initial D since I kept seeing all these songs from the anime and it being referenced constantly, and i'm really liking it
I'm not a car person, the only car I know is the toyota corolla (which happens to be the one the protagonist drives according to wikipedia), never ever watched a race IRL, and the closest to a driving simulator i've played is mario kart
however, seeing the over the top dramatic driving scenes with this blood pumping eurobeat in the background is just great. So far, initial D manages to do what a lot of sports/action animes/mangas fail to do, and that is, get me, someone with no interest in those stuff, actually feel tense and excited during one of those scenes
also, the animation feels really weird for some reason, but not really in a bad way, just that it's very unique at times and I don't think this was intentional
excited to keep watching, want to see where this goes

Sakura-sou no Pet na Kanojo: 8/10.
Good Anime. It has quite a realistic portrayal of hard work vs talent. Although it's too melodramatic in some parts and "romance", one of this anime supposed genre, is quite lacking.
5-toubun no Hanayomeโฝ: 8/10
THE QUINTS ARE BACK. After the horrendous sh*tshow and the shocking revelation of the promised girl that was the movie, we got the "adaptations from the manga that is not in the anime", which mostly took place between the second season and the movie itself. The good thing is, this is adapted by SHAFT STUDIO. Yes THE studio that made monogatari. For the style of animation and direction, welll.. It's quite different from the two seasons but come on, it's Shaft studio we're talking about! It seems that Shaft have gotten their quality back. I mean, look at this.
THIS is wallpaper-worthy.
Story wise, I think this is a must watch after you finished the second season and before the movie. Since this OVA explains more about key plot that shouldn't have been rush by the author. As one MAL commentator said it, Shaft is doing wonders to convince me that shitty ending is good, the last 10 minutes alone is better than the last 2 seasons and the Movie man

I second this! I am not a car fanatic at all. I started watching it actually because of the Eurobeat <3Patatitta wrote:

It's pretty enjoyable even if you don't care for cars. The scenes are exciting and it's different from many other shows I have come across.
I still have to finish 5th stage :c
I just finished Oshi no Ko. I have to say, it was not what I had expected at all but it was good, I love the animation and the characters. I feel like the show did not resolve the "main idea" or at least I thought it was the main idea based on the prologue... I am sure the second season will get to all that. Very good build-up.
[Anime] Initial D: Second stage: 9/10: same thing as first stage really, really liked it
[Manga] 3-gatsu no Lion: 9/10: 3-gatsu no lion is a very weird manga, one of the most apparent ways is on the ammount of text displayed at once, I mean it, I have never seen a manga with more text, (except shimeji simulation chapter 44)
the ammount of texts displayed at once reminds me of japanese ads, thing is, even if you have the dialogue of the characters, you also have this black stripes with a internal monologue of the protagonist, which is not necessarily related to the theme, and it forces you to first read all the dialogue, and then re-read the page reading the monologue
Also, the pattern structure is non-standard, which I like, and it has some very pretty art, that can get very psychological at times
3-gatsu no lion is a manga about a load of stuff, the story itselfs mainly revolves around shogi, but it's not just about shogi, it's about why do they want to be a shogi player, why are they a shogi player, what is he going to do with the winnings, what does this other character think of them, what is the backstory fo that character, etc
this manga tackles a lot of ideas, it talks about love, competition, money, school, bullying, etc, and it keeps flipping from one to the other in a really quick fashion
honestly if you're into shogi/chess, and like dramas, this manga is absolutely insane, I really enjoyed it
also, manga is not finished, just caught up

[Manga] [Dropped at volume 16]: GTO: 4/10 (Sorry anaxii): I liked the first 3 volumes, were it was the backstory of onizuka, however, after that, I feel it kinda does become a pretty predictible, ecchi, comedy manga, which is not what I expected. And I dont see it really changing it much, so I dropped it. I had the impression that it was something more drama/plot focused, but after the start it's not really, onizuka recieves plot armor and it's just funny scenes with the students, not something I enjoy

Termina: 8/10: Just to make clear, this manga is not fully translated, which is a shame, since I was liking it
Termina (Or terumina) is an avant-garde manga about a small catgirl journiying through the bizarre world on a train, she just gets in the train, and while on the travel or in the stops, she mets weird people in weird circustances,
The art-style is really good, I think it was by far the strongest element, the panel structure is really good too, everything on the visual side is pretty strong, and complements the story perfectly
about the story, it's weird. It doesn't have an overarching plot, at least one I've seen in the chapters that are translated, instead, every destination and chapter it's standalone, kinda like a panpanya manga, and I like panpanya, so I liked that
in fact, I feel the panpanya energy is very strong on this one, in many ways, it's like a more hardcore/extreme version of their works. panpanya a lot of the times bases their stories on true stuff, and then explains it on a wall of text at the end of the chapter, and in termina the same happens! giving explanation of mainly the trains that are featured in the manga
It's a really good short read, it wasn't as impactful as ultra heaven or as breaking as shimeji simulation, but comparing anything, specially avant garde works like this to those, it's a really high bar, I would recommend reading it, and if you like it, consired reading panpanya's work or shimeji simulation, maybe even ultra heaven if you want an even more hardcore experience
also, this thread has given me an idea about making a thread entirely about the avant-garde, that would be interesting, I feel a lot of the best avant-garde works is missing that tag on myanimelist, and I think it's a problem
edit: I did do that thread

Azumanga Daioh THE ANIMATION (2002, J.C.Staff)
9/10
"Please don't cry anymore, GOODBYE SADNESS" - This anime's OP.
I wondered why people loved this anime, why there were so many shitposting of it, and most importantly...
WHO THE HECK WAS HER?!
Well, my questions were answered quite satisfactorily, by showing me one of the most unexpectedly wholesome comedies I have ever witnessed. It showed one of the best portrayals of friendship one could ask for, friends you can trust, friends you can joke with, friends behaving stupidly, and most importantly a genuine and organic feeling of belonging. The protagonists might seem pretty stereotypical, but they eventually grow to be better people and achieving the goals they propose. Azumanga Daioh is pretty lighthearted for the most time but it isn't devoid of thoughts like the fact that youth isn't eternal and that you got to enjoy it with the people that love you.
On the comedy side, this anime didn't stay behind. I laughed REALLY loud at every chapter, most of the jokes are white humor (with a few black comedy in there which was funny too). It's impressive how first, they didn't try to overwhelm the audience, and second, how jokes didn't felt repetitive, although, there were a few jokes that didn't land or were dragged for way longer than they should have, but overall, a great comedy from which I understand why many other anime were inspired by the formula and how CGDCT surged from it.
This anime will have a place in my heart surely, my faith in humanity is restoring.
[manga] Kaguya-sama: Love Is War: 8/10: This was one of te first mangas i've ever read, I watched the anime, first season, I liked it, and then a friend bought the physical mangas continuing from where the anime left off, the last they bought was volume 14, and that was where I left it
currently, I decided to actually finish it, as by the 14th volume, the plot, the actual thing the manga is about is resolved by that volume, so I expected it to be one or two more volumes, however, there were 14 others, there was a total of 28th volumes
it was alright? I guess?, since theplot finished, there really wasn't any of those incredibly over the top funny mind ghames, which were my favourite part, and other than that, it just goes for way longer than it should, this manga would have been a lot of better if it was only 20 volumes or even 16 IMO
[manga] Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou: 8/10: pretty good manga, it's just very relaxing, I really love the theme and the setting, the art was nice too, just a pretty nice, relaxing manga
[manga] Kagurabachi: 6/10?: I mean, it only has 1 chapter so far, and I read it for the memes, I dont even like the genre

Boogiepop wa Warawanai (2019) - 8/10
I'd say that this version of Boogiepop was also good, with a more understandable story yet, the horror elements were toned down a bit and the pacing was really weird to follow. I really liked the arcs in general but I feel like many pieces were left.
I learned recently that this only adapted 4 of the 24 volumes of Boogiepop novels that have been released so far.

Uchuu Kyoudai: 9/10:
This is by far the longest manga i've read, not only it's longer on volume count than anything else (43 volumes), but it's also a lot more dialogue heavy than the previous super long mangas I had read, not 3-gatsu no lion or shimeji simulation chapter 44 levels of text heavy, but it's still more than something like vagabond or vinland saga. Also, this manga it's not finished, it's still ongoing
about the manga itself, it's really good, it's a story about two astrounaut brothers, which takes place in the utopical year of 2025, where apparently nasa still has good enough budget to make moon missions and have had it for a long time, which is sadly not something that has really happened
it's mainly a drama, and a really good one at that, the story flow is basically perfect, everything connects so well with the rest of the story, and it also has very interesting and memorable scenes, the art is nothing out of this world but it's still good.
It's just overall a really good manga about astronauts, would recommend

Started really strong but the comedy fell apart in the latter half, second to last episode was a great ending and the controversial episode 26 was... euh... well, might upset some people but it's far from the worst stuff I have seen. Most overrated last episode imo.

Penguindrum: 9/10: I love penguins, they're my favourite animal, so I watched penguindrum
The first half is pretty typical comedy/drama anime with penguins doing silly stuff, I enjoyed that, however, the second half is wild
they kinda just take all the concepts of the firsrt half and push them into the extreme, and it turns into a very complex and deep plot where the drama element is a lot heavier, I like the concept of penguindrum, I like where the story goes and what ideas it tackles. Honestly, this is an anime that if it really clicks with you, you're goin to absolutely love it forever, but if it doesn't fully click, it's still pretty enjotable. It's overall a good anime, I would recommend it

Mononoke 9/10
Okay, I had a long time without an anime leaving me in awe, the animation was strong and consistent, a nice set of stories, a great protagonist and the fact that this could have had more seasons... but it didn't. Really, I need more of this, but sadly this is an original anime so that means there's no source material and the manga was just an adaptation of what we saw in the anime. Either way, I am impressed that they managed to put FIVE well-developed stories in a matter of 12 episodes without it feeling rushed as well.
The only other thing that I didn't like apart from the extremely short story (I NEED MOAR ;w;) were the overuse (and misuse) of screamers. And basically none of them work, they rather felt like something disgusting to hear rather than something scary, with the notable exception of a few ones that were indeed disturbing.
A final note: the opening is SENDO CUMBIรN.

[manga] Game-bu: 9/10: this technically isn't a manga but a doujinshi, however it's pretty good
I initially learned about this manga a year back when I was talking to zizou, the developer of undertale 2 and the upcoming gimmiko (wishlist gimmiko on steam), since the manga is a SoL about game development, and he saw a pretty funny scene
for the most part, this a pretty normal and cute SoL, however, near the end of the manga, there is certainly a very very amazing story arc, one that is normally very risky for this genre, and they pulled it off perfectly, making for a really above average SoL, would absolutely recommend

Don't Toy me Miss Nagatoro 2nd Attack 7/10
It's a very funny and a romantic anime, and would recommend it to people that like slice of life and a little sign of romance. some scenes were also emotional, and I also seemed to choke up to some of them. I was quite disappointed at the ending though, but ehh, the manga is still going, so I can't really blame lol.

A well delivered suspense I must say, it had the right amount of angst and excitement that I expected. Sorta mindblowing too, especially in the animation side.

My opinion
I started watching this show during airing (Summer) around the time episode 7 was released. I binged the show up to episode 7/12 in one day and then finished it today (About 2 months, maybe less after starting). Sometimes after returning to a show after weeks of postponing, I tend to lose interest, yet I still had an interest in this show since I enjoyed the characters, the story, and the animation. Unfortunately around episode 8-9, I feel as if there was "filler" episodes, that weren't as great as the beginning, I still think it is an anime that is enjoyable. I will still continue season 2, hoping it gives the closure and continues the story as I hoped and expected. If you enjoy romance anime I would recommend it but honestly don't get your hopes up too much, as I said, started off great then the writing and storyline descended.

I think the animation on this anime is better than some anime in this current time (or maybe just me) but feels like the quality decreasing each episode. I have read the manga, and quite enjoy it. I would say overall it's good for me.

The Promised Neverland S2 6/10
The story there was really interesting but the ending was kind of disappointing...
It's a happy ending and they all manage to go to the real world of course, but I feel like they could have make something even bigger.
I wish there's a S3 to raise the level because it felt kind of clichรฉ.

What's so wrong about the season 2 btw? I just think that the story is not good enough but that's it. The characters are well writtenPatatitta wrote:

from the top of my head. The first like 3 chapters it sets up a story, then randomly timeskips skipping what seemed like an arc entirely, to then resurrect one dead character with no build-up to it in a way that just seems like a deus ex machina, to then start telling a plot totally different from the manga with increasingly worse animation and absolutely no pacing, creating no tension and drama. Add taht with the fact that the first season was a masterpiece and this season just killed the possibility for a season 3 or whatever.Anaxii wrote:

Insomniacs After School: 9/10: had already read up to chapter 90, a while back but there wasn't any more chapters released, recently it finished so I just finished the rest of the manga. Probably one of the best romance stories, very good art and themes, very likeable characters, great setting, this is a very high 9
Neeko wa tsurai yo: 7/10: cute SoL about a neet, already read most of it, just read the last volume that just recently got translated. IT's alright, dont really like the ending tho
Re:Cycle of the Penguindrum: 7/10
Compliation movie with re-recorded voices, new scenes for (non-sexual) fanservice that enhance the story (by a little bit) and a new opening. I'd say it's a bad idea to watch without having watched Penguindrum first and only to watch if you really liked Penguindrum but are too lazy to rewatch. I kinda wish they added these scenes to the original series (maybe in a rerun) and make a perfect version.
The OP bangs tho.

Panty and Stokcing with Garterbelt 9/10
Very funny, even though the humor is kind of bordeline-
I really like Panty's behavior in this anime; not the fact that she's a... yeah... but the fact that she expresses her feeling more than everyone (mostly in the epsiodes 12 and 13!!)
- Stocking is cool too, she's kind of like me: a petty person lol
- Brief is kind of the nerd of the anime, but he's caring so I like him!
- CHUCK KEEPS SUFFERING AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Basically it's about two teenagers who start drawing manga and they apparently are incredibly talented and they're amazing and etc etc. At that point I didn't realize it, but this manga was written by the same people that wrote death note, which to clarify, I disliked. This on itself isn't bad, however, the way the actually talk about existing manga really pushed me over the limit.

Gin no Saji 9/10
Oh dear, Gin no Saji is such a hidden gem among slice of life. The story is pretty simple but the way the story is told is magnificent, just like Haikyuu!!, it does a fantastic job in teaching the viewer about the topic of the anime, plus the drama feels relatable and realistic. Excellent anime overall.
Ginga Tetsudou no Yoru 6.5/10 - 300th completed anime milestone!
I decided to watch a movie I wanted to watch since some time ago, which... wasn't as good as I expected. This movie should be classified as Avant-Garde in my opinion due to how the story is told. It features a lot of surrealism, a focus on non-conventional narrative and it's heavy on allegories.
The biggest problem with this film is the pacing, it's SLOW, like, they could have made the story 20-30 minutes shorter if they made some scenes less boring. There were parts that could perfectly be cut, like the protagonists walking from point A to B without anything relevant happening. I surely find a brick wall interesting, thanks director.
Also, it's one of the few anime movies (if not the only one) that has the text in ESPERANTO, yes, esperanto (alongside with Japanese). Mi volas lernan la esperantoj, dankon! (how the heck I still remember some of it? xd)

I actually had the manga for ginga tetsodou in my plan to read, honestly, I don't even know if they're the same story or they just happen to have the same name
boogiepop 2019: 8/10: as always, explained in this thread
Doomsday with My Dog: 8/10: Okay, so there is actually a bit of context to me reading this manga. I was browsing myanimelist, looking what should I read, and then I found this list called "Potato Manga". This list was composed of a hyperspecific subgenre that is honestly one of my favourite genres all together, that being, world-centered slice of life were the characters just run around a world that is most often than not post-apocalyptic and disscuss philosophy. That means, girls last tour, kino no tabi, shuumatsu touring, etc.
I know the name is a reference to how the community calls the main character duo for girls last tour, gay potatos. However, given that name, the composition of the list and the fact that I had read everything in that list except blame!, the LN for kino no tabi and doomsday with my dog, I felt morally obligated to finish it
first I tried blame!, I don't ususally talk about mangas I just read the first volume to see what is it about and decide to read it or not (I don't even note them as read in my MAL account), but I didn't really connect with blame as it was very much more action focused, and given how long reading all of the kino no tabi novels would take me, I decided to just read doomsday with my dog
and the manga was in fact a potato manga (honestly i'm going to start calling this subgenre that tbh), it's about this girl who just wanders around this calm, post-apocalyptic world with their dog (kinda like the start of the movie I am legend but more chill), however the dog talks and they just disscuss philosophy, dog facts and interpersonal drama for 3 volumes, and I enjoyed it
The manga is also full color, which is pretty rare to see. I assumed it was self-published like a webtoon but it's apparently liscenced by ComicWalker, honestly will read about them, since it's really not common at all for serialized mangas to be full color
the manga starts being full 4koma, but after a special chapter at the end of volume 1 where the mangaka tries to test the waters for a non-4koma version of the manga, the following volumes mix 4koma and regular illustration, kinda like a work by tsukumizu yuu but without the panel-breaking shenanigans. Which I personally really enjoy
now, the actual manga is more close to a shuumatsu touring than a kino no tabi, it doesn't go that in depth with each philosophical thought, however, it is a very relaxing and enjoyable read, kinda like shuumatsu touring but more focused in the relationships between the two characters. And yes, i'm aware that no one other than me and the person that did the potato manga list has read shuumatsu touring, however it is a good comparasion, they're probably around the same level of quality and same type of feelings
pretty good read, will have to find more potato mangas since apparently I have basically finish the list as i'm not really going to read blame or the LN for kino no tabi just now
PD: I do not believe made in abyss is a potato manga as that list says, honestly, when I read more potato mangas I may consider making a potato manga list for myself, that would be cool
Apparently it's another independent adaptation of the fairy tale it's based on. It's like comparing Disney and Del Toro's Pinocchio. Based on same story, told differently. Also seemingly there are several manga adpatations.Patatitta wrote:

As I said, this is more or less your typical Nakige anime but with a fantastic animation. Despite the melodrama and sometimes exaggerated reactions from some characters, the series was enjoyable and the pacing was excellent. The topics it touches are well developed too.

Attack on Titan, 10/10
This anime raised me, so I have a strong bias towards it. I loved everything about it, I've been thinking about the ending for a week now.
I hope to get a ticket to the Shingeki AfterParty, and I want to buy the rest of the mangas. (I only bought Volume 1, years ago).
I don't even know if I want to watch any other anime anymore.

the legendary manga, actually did read it
[Manga] Heavenly Delusion (ongoing): 8/10:
apparently this got adapted last season, I was not aware when I started reading the manga.
The manga is fine, reading the first chapter I was like "oh this is going to be like the proised neverland" and then I read chapter 2 and was like nvm
manga is a post-apocalyptic adventure manga, however in many ways it feels unfocused? It does have tons of interesting ideas, however, it doesn't really explore them. For example, the manga starts with the first chapter where you learn of these kids stuck in a school, and talking about escaping, and the second chapter, which is from the perspective of two scavengers on the outside, and you were like, ah the manga is ging to be about the contrast of these two ways of living
however, the manga isn't really about that?, like each two volumes or stuff the focus of the manga changes. And it's not like they aren't foreshadowed, it's just kinda has these cool concepts but they dont go in depth on anything, so while it is an enjotable read, it 's not really something that's really anything more than it

ef - a tale of melodies 8/10
The second season of ef was darker than I expected, and very much unlike the 1st season whose main focus was a romance-drama, here the focus shift somewhat to solving the mysteries that season 1 left, which was done excelently. However, the 2nd season went stronger with the melodramatic reactions, like, PLEASE, THAT'S BORDERLINE CRINGE.... either way, taking that aside, the animation staid strong and the overall story was more emotional. I recommend ef if you're into romance dramas.

[DROP] Hibike! Euphonium - 5/10
I have no idea where is this anime going, and frankly, I don't care anymore. Animation was great and music was excellent purely because of Kyoto Animation, if it was made by another studio this anime wouldn't have such a high score.
ALSO, DON'T BE TRICKED, THIS IS QUEERBAIT. EMPHASIS ON BAIT.
Drop reason, also spoilers.
Drama felt too forced, pacing was awfully slow, characters are flat, it fails at being motivational like Haikyuu!!, Gin no Saji or Sora Yori mo Tooi Basho did as... well... unlike these three anime where protagonist is a nobody with no goals in life, the protagonist ALREADY plays the instrument (and is great at it) and the other main characters who are just starting don't get any screen time, and finally, watching this felt like a chore.
Also, the series start with a premise of "Oh, their friendship relationship is tense because they failed (well not too hard of a failure either) in a concert in highschool, I wonder how will they manage to deal with such a tense relationship while being on the same band" Well, guess what? it gets solved in 5 chapters.

was like on discord pinging person 2 like "hey, gave this a second try, didn't get into it", which they responded "that's fair, no worries", and then person 3 comes into play like OH IT JUST THAT IT GETS GOOD LATER, AT AROUND CHAPTER 70 (so volume 6/7). I didn't dislike the manga or whatever, I just had found it alright, and they really really really insisted on it. I personally dont ever believe in the "it gets good", if you just dont really get into something in chapter 1, it's very hard to get into it later
however, I decided to say fuck it, and read it, and guess what, my opinion really didn't change that much, it's true that there is a genre switch from pure SoL to mistery, however, if you dont care for the SoL part you wont for the mistery.

Shoujo Shuumatsu Ryokou 10/10.
How to make a 12 episode anime, a slice of life, with practically only two characters and manage to make not only the bare minimum (as most SOL do), but rather, an excellent work? It's a series of factors: Starting by the fact they're the only survivors of a war and are exploring the world, and getting amazed by stuff that, while we might take them for granted, for them it's the most amazing thing they've seen. This made me reflect on my own life and made me aware on how fortunate we are of having everything we have. The second good thing is the direction, both in animation and music, none of both faltered at any moment. Detailed landscapes and great depiction of a futuristic destroyed world. The score is also fantastic, portraying the sense of curiosity and adventure, the fear of the unknown, the sadness of something disappearing... It's just fantastic and difficult to forget. Last but not least, the worldbuilding is excellent and, while leaving some questions open for interpretation, it answers you little by little on how both girls are trying the best to survive. I am impressed by Girls' Last Tour in basically every aspect and I look forward to continue the manga as well.

Shimeji Simulation: literally my favourite work of fiction ever created / 10: It's finally over
edit: wrote a full review
i'm sorry
Shimeji simulation is my favourite work of fiction of all time. It's the first manga i've ever really followed live, reading the new chapters the day it came out, and just recently, it ended.
I don't believe objective criticism of any film or anime is possible, and shimeji is the maximum example of this in my humble opinion, as it goes contrary to most of the typical structure and rules other works seem to follow, so I will only be talking about how shimeji made me feel.
Shimeji is a philosophical slice of life by the creator of Girls last Tour. In many ways, it's very similar to this previous title, as it borrows much of the narrative structure, however, it turns it up to the max. There isn't a single unimportant line of dialogue in this entire manga, everything has at least 6 layers to it. However, in contrast to other mangas considered complex or deep, (Let's take for example Lain or Evangelion), you don't need to understand the depths this manga touches in order to enjoy it. The depth is an addition, not their whole identity.
At the start of the manga, shijima says the line "I wonder if this is a metaphor for something." This sets the tone for the rest of the manga. Let's analyze for example chapter 4. This chapter is divided into 3 scenes. In our first scene, shijima and majime are buying lunch, and majime describes how her mom didn't prepare lunch for her today, and she feels kind of sad because of it.
In our next scene, they're in art class. They're given a metal wire and told to represent "Sadness". Of course, every student has a different interpretation of "sadness", and that can be seen in the way everyone's project looks. This entire scene is very absurd, and can be funny because of it. In our last scene, shijima and majime are outside class, and they go talk to one of her teachers.
In this section, it's shown that the teacher is an alcoholic, however, they cant drink in school grounds, so they made a hole in the fence, so they can go outside a second to legally drink and then go back in. This is also kinda funny
So what we have now, a little bit of SoL conversation followed for comedy, however, it all keeps the same theme of "Sadness", first scene, majime is sad, second scene, they're representing sadness, last scene, the fence with the hole on it was made of the same metal wires, so we can extrapolate that the wire fence is also a metaphor for sadness
However, is there anything intrinsic about sadness that makes it follow these ideas?. there really isn't, this is just how feelings work, they don't have a set manifestation, it could be sadness, happyness, etc. I won't spoil anything, but this is the grounds for something in a later chapter.
In one scene we have comedy, character development, philosophical undertones, and setup for the future. Chapter 4 is NOT the exception, this is the rule with the manga.
Tkmiz art is very surreal too, it ignores regular anatomy and changes the shape of the characters to express their feelings, this was also the case with girls last tour. But in shimeji simulation, this doesn't only apply for the characters, but for the world too. The world of shimeji simulation is impossible, if you notice closely, the shape of some roads are optical illusions and impossible shapes.
This isn't just because it's cooler, it makes sense. In our previous analysis of chapter 4, everyone's representation of sadness varied a lot. Depending on the life experiences of each student, the materials they had at hand, the language they spoke, and many other factors changed their interpretation of sadness. In a way, the world changed the way they understand feelings, and since people are the ones that create the cities that they live in, it's a feedback loop. We change the world and the world changes us. In this case, the world is surreal, so everyone's thoughts compared to us seem surreal, which on itselfs, creates a surreal world.
It's also worth mentioning that in this manga, the world is as much a protagonist as all the other characters, and this idea of how the world changes someone is explored in great detail earlier.
The fact that shimeji is as surreal as it is, gives tkmiz total creative freedom. They can push anything they want to the maximum. In fact, I would personally say that the only mangas I've really read that are this level of experimental and crazy are weird little anthologies, I mean stuff like panpanya's works. However, shimeji simulation is the only manga i'm aware of that takes that level of insanity and madness and polishes it into a complete, not nonsensical story.
The actual storytelling is also fairly interesting, while more mangas give you plenty of information of the plot and the worldbuilding. Shimeji simulation only gives you as much information as shijimas knows. If shijima doesn't know how something works, neither do you. The world, while absurd, makes total sense. The characters aren't just there for the plot, every character has a life, and if their life doesn't intersect with shijima's life, they wont appear. By the end of the manga, there will be MANY unresolved plots, however, it does not matter. The actual plot that shijima follows is the only one you need to know.
I feel there is a certain culture on the internet, where every piece of media has 200 theories, and every time, more writers appeal to that idea. Shimeji simulation is the total opposite of that, if you don't understand something, it's fine, you probably didn't have to get it. If some really small detail goes over your head, it's fine. If the story ends and there is much unresolved, it won't bother you. In life. You won't always have all the answers as everything that happens, this is the same thing.
All of this combined makes for a story that is complex yet simple to understand. Incredibly original but not impossible to approach. Funny, yet sad.
Shimeji simulation is the most ground breaking and original work of fiction i've ever put my eyes into. I really hope this gets animated in the future. I want people to know something like this is possible, to be exposed to a new form of writing, to enjoy the same joy I did while reading shimeji simulation. And above all else, future writers take inspiration from shimeji simulation and make something even greater.
Thank you for reading this.

Romance manga, I just didn't connect to it, IT does have some neat ideas here and there but It didn't feel as emotional as a makoto shinakai movie or had as much to say as clannad or bloom into you, it's just a nice slice of life romance.

First of all this isn't anyone's dish. Even if you're the type who could handle ecchi, Yuel is enough to get you rethinking. Yes, loli ecchi. I repeat: Loli ecchi. And you CAN'T discard the loli and call it a day. However, two other charas might make the cut for you if you don't want to deal with Yuel. Even then, good luck because this work actually challenges the limits of how far you can go while staying safe. In fact one particular part is pretty daring, so......
Let the 4/10 speak on my behalf, unless you're interested in Yuel.
By the way, do not expect an anime adaptation; it may never happen.

This reeks of "sequel made just for the purpose of making money in the laziest way possible". Has some strong points tho that I won't discuss because of spoilers. I'll just say that the first 13 episodes could be skipped and you won't miss anything, I am being serious.
Animation-wise, was decent.

Sonny boy: 9/10: Anime original by the same director as one punch man and the weird sequel to the tatami galaxy i'm watching rn
this anime is strange and confusing, the animation style is very minimalistic. A lot of things that could be seen as big plot points happen off-camera between chapters, this anime is more concerned about the message it is trying to send, and how the main characters adapt and evolve than the actual plot making sense. It's not an anime for everyone, however, I really enjoyed it, One of the most original animes of recent times that i've seen

this is just kinda like an afterstory for tatami galaxy except not really. It's not really a season 2 either. It's just weird. In the end, it's just more tatami galaxy, it's not at the same scale and scope as season 1, because that was just fucking insane, but it's still just a really nice watch

THE IDOLM@STER Cinderella Girls U149
9/10
It deserves a 10/10 honestly, but I deducted one point because one can't fully enjoy it if one doesn't know iM@S at all. If you want to fully enjoy this, you'll need to play THE IDOLM@STER Cinderella Girls: Starlight Stage (ใขใคใใซใในใฟใผ ใทใณใใฌใฉใฌใผใซใบ ในใฟใผใฉใคใในใใผใธ) for a good while for this, but good luck. I think you still could enjoy it, but you know, it's made for the iM@SCG fans. Or maybe the anime itself could pull you into Starlight Stage? I don't know, there are those types out there.
btw we DO NOT do that one annoying sound for this. This isn't the anime for it, aside from the point this isn't even the right place for it so...

Tanoshii Muumin Ikka (aka Moomin/Muumilaakson Tarinoita) 8/10
Man, I had a long time without watching a long series, a 78 episode anime no less.
I can really see why some people consider Moomin to be one of the best children-aimed anime, it has a compelling story, lovable characters, and the topic isn't dumbed down. Moomin is a Fantasy Slice of Life, something that deviates from the norm of most children programming, where there's either tons of action or comedy, just unlike (most of) Moomin does. Moomin is THE anime for when you need some coziness, something to look at and let yourself carry on. As this is a Kodomo anime, most of the anime has a lighthearted tone, and most conflicts are self-conclided in the same episode, that does not mean though, that there is not a bigger overarching story, a story that develops slowly, that invites you to see the world where Moomin takes place.
The reason why I am not rating this higher though, is that I have a lot of unanswered questions, none of which have an answer nor in books or comics or whatever. I'd really like to know what happened after certain events, but sadly no canonical information exists, that's pretty sad in my opinion. Some plots had potential to develop more but alas, I think the series would have worked better with 52 episodes because some episodes were pretty weak.
As a final note, Japanese 1st opening is the best opening of moomin in every sense.
Now that I am watching the opening after finishing Moomin....

My latest anime that I am up to date with are Jujutsu Kaisen and Berserk of Gluttony. Both are good anime, but Berserk of Gluttony is just a decent seasonal anime, nothing more, which is why I give it a 7.5/10. Jujutsu Kaisen, on the other hand, is an extremely good anime that I highly recommend, rating it 9/10.
Muumindani no Suisei (aka Comet in Moominland) 7/10
Pretty adequate prequel movie, with the common trope of having better animation.
The concept of a comet threatening to destroy Moominvalley, while well executed in the most part, it had a very slow pacing even for a movie of just 72 minutes.

Sunny: 9/10: Slice of life psychological manga, so slice of life that MyAnimeList doesn't even consider it a Slice of life what the actual fuck how isn't this tagged SoL
anyways, it's by the same author as ping pong and takemitsuzamurai, so it's just a SoL with some drama and really cool art

For some reason MAL has recently put restrictions with genre tags, not allowing you to tag Slice of Life with Drama nor Comedy. The latter two can be together but none of both with Slice of Life.Patatitta wrote:

Made in Abyss (S1): 9/10
At first glance it reminded me of The Promised Neverland, but this anime is DEFINITELY MORE explicit than that

[Manga] Tekkonkinkreet: Black & White: 8/10: weird action/superhero thing by Taiyou Matsumoto, it's enjoyable but not as good as ping pong or sunny
[Manga] Doraemon: 8/10, weird fan-sequel oneshot to doraemon by Taiyou Matsumoto, doraemon is a part of my childhood and I think this oneshot is neat
