So the Anime I've watched over the last couple years, some fun, and some guilty pleasures.

Dragonball Z
Dragonball Z abridged (I love it)
Overlord (Loved it and the fact that one of the DBZA VA's was the main character. Also think that the English VA's are better than the Japanese ones)
Monster Musume
Monster Musume Doctor
Goblin Slayer

A shame that Dragon Ball Z Abridged had to come to an end. I understand why. Better to end on a high note than to dragon (ha) too long and lose steam.

Born under one law, to another bound;
Vainly begot, and yet forbidden vanity,
Created sick, commanded to be sound."

WARPED

Anyone started Demon Slayer season 3 yet? (it is 3right?) First episode was kick @$$!
"The heart may be weak, and sometimes it may even give in.
But I've learned that deep down, there's a light that never goes out!"

The anime industry is fuuuuuuuuucked. Seriously, this crap makes America's capitalistic system look like paradise.

Watching Gundam: The Origin.

Somehow, it seems fitting that Char Aznable's descent into villainy begins in Texas.  :P

Author of Dragon Ball, Akira Toriyama, died of a blood clot in his brain in the 1st of this month. We're just now hearing about it, which makes me wonder if no one noticed until today.



Edit: Turns out his family just didn't want to be bothered by the press while they held a private funeral. Makes sense.

Haven't watched any good anime lately. Read spy x family for a good chunk a while back.
Been reading more, over all.
But 'dandadan', i think it's called, has caught my eye. I have nowhefe to watch it, for now. But anybody seen it? Is it a recommend?

I've been watching Spy x Family. I love it. Almost done with season 2, and season 3 comes this October.

It is really good ^^

I read (a lot of) the manga. No idea how far the seasons are.

Sadly, don't have crunchyroll or the likes. Netflix doesn't feature a lot of anime :(

Recommend me some anime!

I haven't watched much anime lately, and that's a shame, because I love outlandish stories with all sorts of magic powers and mecha and whatever.  Just please, don't recommend me DBZ or Naruto or One Piece or other mega-popular titles.  Suffice it to say that I already know about that stuff.  A good rule of thumb is that if there are honest-to-god statues of that show's characters in real life, it's mega-popular.  So shoot for that sweet spot between 1 billion views and 100 views.

Shows I really like: Slayers, Gundam Wing/00, Soul Eater, Konosuba, Cells At Work, etc.

My brother recommended me some isekai that he really likes, but my interest in that genre really started waning when I saw just this horrible glut of dozens of very, very, very similar shows.  I swear, I even saw that Konosuba town at least twice, like a deja vu cat in the Matrix.  Even when isekai shows have obvious differences, I can't help but think that I'm essentially watching the same show.  I'm not a fan of those ridiculous titles, either.  Imagine if I came up to you with a straight face and asked you to watch "Help, I've been reassigned to this Deep Space Station and Now I'm The Emissary?!" or "My father is a Viltrimite and He Wants Me To Take Me On A Subway Ride??!".  At least Slayers had the decency to keep that stuff as episode names rather than the series name.  Plus, it helped transition you to the character's pov.  That other stuff just makes my search history look like I have schizophrenia.

I've been watching Ranma 1/2 lately. Haven't seen it since I was in my 20's. I was wondering why I was so enthralled at the time and then nudity happened and I was like, "Oh yeah."
