Yeah, it feels especially weird with ranked choice voting. Do I leave them off? Do I put them on? If I put them on, how can I possibly order two shows I haven’t seen? If everyone leaves off shows they haven’t seen, won’t this just be a list of the most-watched shows of the year?
It doesn’t have to be like that! You just gotta show up with wool socks and a decent sleeping pad. It’s a lot easier if you don’t try to hike everything in.
The midges will vary by campsite.
Careful, it’ll make you want to go camping!
It’s Legend of the Galactic Heroes and it’s not even close. I can’t watch it right now though; one of the main villains reminds me a lot of Trump and it’s too depressing.
I still regularly listen to both the OP and ED of Bravern
They’re some of the most-played songs on my workout playlist. Currently trying to memorize the lyrics for karaoke.
Incredible show from top to bottom
I agree; the main characters were both great!
That’s gonna be a tough one. I’m split evenly between Brave Bang Bravern! and The Summer Hikaru Died. I think Bravern just barely edges it out for me, but it kinda depends if you want action/comedy or horror.
Yup, they always were low quality
I’m honestly not so sure about that. I really like the subs for Yakitate! Japan for example.
right now it’s so bad it’s hard to even watch.
That’s definitely an exaggeration. I’ll notice something is off maybe once an episode, and even then it’s usually pretty clear what was meant. It’s really not that big of a deal.
No idea. I’m definitely noticing more obvious errors when watching new shows than old shows though. Sometimes they’re even errors that aren’t issues with translation but could just be typos or bad English grammar for example. Things any native English speaker should be able to catch. Since Sony took over and put the geniuses who ran Funimation into the ground in charge of Crunchyroll I’m guessing they’ve been having their employees do the classic “do more work for no additional pay” thing corporations love to do.
A lot of the people who get hired to do subs are the people who used to do fansubs back in the day. There’s a lot of passion, but they aren’t usually given the time to go above and beyond. It’s kind of a shame; these days I’m noticing Crunchyroll doesn’t even bother paying someone to proofread.
I’m guessing it’s a pet. That draws a strong parallel to what was happening in her book, and when Asa asked if she’d lost someone important the word she used in Japanese was one that would only be used to describe people.
It wasn’t a legal move in freestyle skating until recently due to the danger.
I always love watching Tsukasa get bullied by the other coaches! I can’t believe he did a backflip with no helmet just because he was told to, lol.
Also, does it still count as a back-handed compliment if they explicitly say “this isn’t meant to be praise btw”?
Edit: the music that played while Tsukasa watched Jun skate made it feel really gay.
Wouldn’t that be like handing them a trophy for having the most average taste?
more something where you can imagine the creators pointing at their work and saying “Look! This part of the world exists too! Isn’t that neat?” with stars in their eyes
I absolutely feel this whenever we start learning random Ainu facts in Golden Kamuy.
I’ve heard of Food Wars, but never Chuuka Ichiban!. I’ll have to look it up sometime. Thanks!
Does non-battle battle anime count? In Yakitate!! Japan the characters participate in tournaments to see who can make the best bread. It feels very much like a battle shounen at times. In Kaguya-sama: Love is War two tsundere who’ve fallen for each other try to use dumb tactics to force the other person to be the first to admit it (though the show is a lot more than just that).
Very rare for horror stuff to look that good in an anime.
I don’t watch a lot of horror, but The Summer Hikaru Died wins easily for me.
Kind of undermined by the fact that he said it to the demon though.
