Laid-back episode. The narration is a nice touch and Hiro imagining he’s being interviewed is funny. And the bombshell of the episode, just who exactly is Fujishiro-san?

Before the reveal, I thought he’s a retired Yakuza boss who’s basically made it, then decided to work at a convenience store to live a quiet life.

With an episode like Dan da Dan E7, it’s hard for any of the others to top it in this week’s chart.

The low-effort addition of the udon makes it funnier

We’ll find out when the adaptation of My Life Is Just As Wrong As I Expected After Traveling to Another World Where I’m Surrounded By Cute Girls At A Magical High School And Am Also The Fabled Hero of Legend… gets announced.

Optics of cutting the programs aside, it’s criminal that beneficial programs like these don’t get re-authorized.

In general, it’s worth getting to video games. I would caution against trying corporate-created games, mainly because they are a money sink (for you) first and worthwhile entertainment second. There are a lot of “indie” games out there typically created by people truly passionate on their craft… you can take a look at them and see if it interests you.

Is it The Onion? Or Not the Onion?

Yes

Power lines blocking sky, Japan: 😍😍😍😍

Color me intrigued. Looks like the type that would be a hit (heh) in the West.

Thanks for the response. I guess I’ll check for myself once I come round to watching it.

For context, Violet Evergarden, Your Lie in April (the first watch especially, unresolved past issues and all that), and A Place Further Than The Universe are some that emotionally destroyed me.

If it’s 8-bit, I hope they get enough time and resources. Their Blue Lock schedule was brutal and it showed (or the lack of showing actual animation showed)

Looks like it’s summer camping! Rin character development arc?

With this treasure, I summon… weird lady in red!

If you’ve watched I Want to Eat Your Pancreas, how similar is it in emotional impact to this, in your opinion? I haven’t seen that yet.

Look Back a great movie and am very thankful to experience watching this in the theater. My rating on it is purely on its technical merits. I guess I couldn’t relate on it at an emotional level. I especially love the ambiguity of the eponymous 4-koma scene. Is it an alternate timeline? Or did Kyomoto pen the comic far in advance, without knowledge of her eventual fate? It’s up to you.

You might want to spoiler-tag that. And I already watched Clannad

I think Ice’s Chinese sounds quite good.

Thailand mentioned raaah.

I mean, let’s say they are for the sake of argument, what Palestinian kibbutzim/IDF did Hamas target on Oct 7? That’s an apples-to-apples analogy of the source provided.

Did the ZOB seek out people like German women, children, elderly?
