Okarin tutturu~! The Japanese Anime & Manga Thread II [POST YOUR RECOMMENDATIONS]

[Saint of Killers]

WTF?! I'm supposed to wait until god only knows when in – hopefully – 2021 to get the player reactions for the final ep of the latest series of Haikyu?!! My nerves were frazzled and then it just... ended

Uh I think you missed an episode. There was an episode yesterday that was the final.

EXCELLENT!

I'd also strongly recommend the Overlord anime and light novels. I've enjoyed the LN so much I've re-read each volume twice.

I understand that it's very popular, but having watched three seasons of it I still don't understand the appeal
Soundtrack bangs tho can't lie

One Piece Chapter 1,000.

One Piece Chapter 1,000.

Obviously without giving away major details, what sort of issue is it? What's the BIG thing from the issue? Cliffhanger being set up? Cliffhanger resolution? Or is a laid back sort of issue?

I'm on 960. And have started reading Demon Slayer

How do I answer this with these requirements?

I'll pass on the attempt!

I've seen the 1st episode of Demon Slayer a few weeks ago, need to give it a few more episodes but wasn't hooked from the 1st ep.

I don't even play games and have never played an MMORPG but the concept is great and reminds me of other "vastly overpowered character in their world" like One Punch Man. It's a challenge to make such a premise feel fresh but 14 light novel books later and I'm still hooked, the world building certainly helps too.

I wasn't even aware it's particularly popular, can't recall anyone mentioning it on here for instance.

It was part of that wave of early-mid 2010s isekai and so was popular among my generation (Z), many of whom got into anime through these shows (largely SAO lol). I like aspects of Overlord and in theory I should love the sort of protagonist it has, but Ains' internal monologue and the unconditional devotion of his subjects are kind of offputting. It creates this sort of inconsistency with his character wherein it feels almost out of step whenever he murders humans in cold blood. Maybe this becomes less of an issue later on.

I don't dislike the show tho, I'd probably watch another season of it.

Read up to midway through Punk Hazard now. One Piece really is amazing holy gooseberry fool.

I couldn't get into it. When (which ep) it did click with you?

Are you watching the One Piece anime? The pacing is terrible on that arc and is around the time I became fully Manga only.

The Manga arc was great!

I hope one day we'll get a 4k remake with proper pacing similar to what happened with Full Metal Alchemist then being redone as Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood.

I'm reading the manga, I've enjoyed the whole thing so pretty much from the start.

For some reason I saw Dresrossa and read Dorohedoro.

And yes, Dressrosa Arc was amaze.

I've not seen any of the anime, but yeah, a remake would be a great jumping on point for me.
