What anime are you currently watching? I'm watching Hidamari Sketch and after letting the setting settle in after a couple of episodes, It's really relaxing. My initial problem was that this was a Shaft-anime, so I expected it to be more "aggressive" in tone or style, rather than it being so laid-back. I might actually say that this is probably the best Shaft-anime in style when compared to other works they have! The coloring, scenery setting etc. all feel perfect in almost every frame. I also like the stretched faces a lot.


I'm watching the second season of The Eminence in Shadow and Goblin Slayer. It's dumb fun.

glasss girl on sofa, which series were you from?

I've been slowly catching up on the anime I missed last season alongside anime from this season. Currently watching the Mushoku Tensei S2 episodes I missed last season; this season, I'm enjoying Frieren and Hikikomari Kyuuketsuki no Monmon quite a bit. The latter has a lot of fun moments and cute faces which makes it a joy to keep watching.
After I finish these, I'll probably watch Inari, Konkon, Koi Iroha. since I've delayed it for years now.

Eminence in Shadow's on my list of recent stuff to watch alongside Spy Classroom. The "dumb" aspect sounds like it'll be pretty comedic to watch, whether intentionally or not.

Frieren sounds kinda depressing, but interesting. Hikikomari reminds me a bit of Jahy-sama. Guess I'll add both on my backlog.

>whether intentionally or not
Eminence in Shadow is definitely intended to be comedic.


>>12
Frieren's general theme is a bit depressing, but it tends to be approached from a viewpoint ranging from bittersweet to hopeful which somewhat mitigates that. Stylistically it approaches it in a thoughtful way which I appreciate -- difficult to fully explain, but the angles & composition mixed with thoughtful dialogue generally make it feel a lot more worthwhile than a silly half-assed "I live long time, friend don't. what do??" story.

>definitely intended to be comedic
Figured, I wasn't completely sure though since had seen some people complaining about it being too "embarrassing to watch" online. Sounds like I'll enjoy it.

I watched couple of episodes of this a while ago. I actually expected that the whole show would be about just killing the teacher, but 4 episodes in it seems like the show tried to have some kind of deeper meaning between the teacher and the students. I also made an assumption based on the episodes I watched that the rest of the show would be mainly focused on the relationship-aspect between the students and the teacher.

I read the first volume and watched the first episode of Frieren. I liked it first when there was only Frieren and that other girl, but adding more people to the party made it all seem too redundant to me. I think I would have read it more if it only focused on the relationship between the two of them.

I finally finished Tsukuyomi: Moon Phase. Minus the weird battle scenes, this show was pretty good. I don't really know what the atmosphere in the first half could be called, but I really liked it. I think Shiki might be the closest one that I can think of that has this similiar "elegant vampires"-thing going on.

I've noticed that sort of thing before, where an anime forcibly becomes about an entourage. It's not always a bad thing, but in any case I think(part of why) writers do it, is to make coming up with plots easier.
