General Anime Thread

Somehow curse tech in JJK increases in efficiency if you TOLD everybody especially your opponent, everything about it. How it works, its weakness, its timing, everything.
 
Whaaa–HAHAHA! The reasoning behind it is this: Now that you’ve told your opponent, it is now harder on yourself to pull it off, essentially handicapping yourself. This works because it’s like you’re cursing yourself. Hence, curse tech becomes more cursed, and it gets stronger.
 
It’s also a neat excuse for the writer to have characters explaining their technique mid-fight or before a fight, and it’s in everybody’s best interest to let them talk.

Made In Abyss will be getting a Live-Action western movie
 
Uh…that is…something.

@The Equestrian Zodiac  
I doubt that will be very good.

@WyrmSpawN  
Yeah, I don’t have any confidence in it.

@Holofan4life  
What is an Isekai?

@Red-Supernova  
Generally, it’s an anime where a character starts off being killed and ‘reincarnates’ in a different world.

@Red-Supernova  
An Anime where the main character is already dead!

@WyrmSpawN  
@igotnopicks  
Ha! I didn’t know it was an established genre!

@Red-Supernova  
It’s not a genre it’s a sub genre of fantasy.

@Red-Supernova

Fantasy only in the sense, that reincarnation is fantastical. But not all isekai are set in ye olde JRPG kinda deal. A lot reincarnation-type isekai are set in historical and other various settings, too.  
Many isekai stories are also summoned / transported in another world without the MC dying. It’s in the word:  
Isekai, different world.
 
Meaning: reincarnation-type isekai is a subset of the whole isekai set. Anytime you’re pulled from one world into the next is isekai. Equestria, fecking GIRLS is isekai…ish. Actually I’m pretty sure it’s Isekai.

@igotnopicks  
Only reincarnation isekai. Many isekai transport main character alive. Often because playing video games

@DeathCloud  
Xactly.
 
JUMANJI was Isekai. At least, for some characters.

@tehwatever  
Not totally since well, if you watched the first movie. The ending is right there explaining what happened that the game was finished.

@igotnopicks
 
Well sure there was time shenanigans reversing the events of the movie. But the boy still got isekai’d at the start, and aren’t the reboots all about the players being isekai’d?

@tehwatever  
And better than 99,99% of isekais

@Dustcan  
Pretty sure it is. Kinda. But time travel is certainly a thing.

Beelzebub from 300 Years Killing Slime is my favoritest character like no joke I love her so freaking much.
 
I’m still not gonna take anything back what I said about the series. It’s still a very well drawn, barely animated piece of cute anime with a non-offensive character design, doesn’t do anything new nor does it have any overarching plot nor an epic story driven narrative.
 
But as of ep 12 it’s my current favorite anime. Actually my favorite. Maybe because So I’m Spider has been looking kinda cheap with the dodgy 3dcg stuff and lack of background props or color, while 300 Years has been consistently looking real good even when half of the time they’re still images.
 
Considering this week is the end of the 1st cour, I wonder if they gonna change things up with a mid-season-shift or somehting. I hope not. I love the status quo as it is. Lemme have this for a little longer.

Wait no fuck it’s the ENDING?! NO! Fuuuuck!
 
NO! NO!!! I’m sorry 300 Years! Come back! Come back omggggg!!!!!
 
I’m actually crying right now!

Okay I finally got around to the last episode of Spider for now.
 
It’s like hilariously bad. The CG and the 2D are not mixing very well and no spider means more human yay?. But even more than that is how convulated the plot is with Shun’s gang.

 
I’m already missing these guys and it’s not even a day since the anime ended.
 
I LOVE YOU! I’m sorry I said all that stuff for the entire time I knew you, so please come back!
 
Oh no! What am I gonna look forward to on Saturdays?!

@tehwatever  
Cute.

@igotnopicks  
They shouldn’t use CGI for human characters and leave it for monsters and mooks. Only Kumo worked well CGI and human chars should stick to normal animation even if also crappy. Granny being cgi was warning sight afterall

Chainsaw Man is looking pretty sick.

@tehwatever  
Maybe they’ll be a season 2
