  • I like Overlord. Its got good worldbuilding but it also doesn’t always take itself too seriously and throws in some comedy every now and then to keep it lively.

    I also really liked Knight’s & Magic. There are not enough medieval fantasy / mecha hybrid shows out there, despite anime being the perfect medium for it.

    Skeleton in Another World was a fun one once you get past the first episode. The attempted rape scene right in the beginning just shows too much on screen IMO, it would have been better to cut some of it short and show the scenery around more rather than what was actually shown. Very uncomfortable, which I hope is what its supposed to make the viewer feel, but then literally none of the rest of the show is every that intensity. Like it was almost Perfect Blue levels of showing too much for too long.


  • My biggest problem with Mushoku, and why I feel like I literally cannot recommend it, is because of the weird pedo stuff. It would be fine and easy to forget I guess if the show stayed in fantasy mode, but for whatever reason any time there is something slightly sexual the show writers decide to remind the viewer “erm actually the main character is a 40+ year old man.” That just pulls me right out of the show.

    The other parts are cool, but that one thing really stops me from enjoying it more.








  • People who actually think this are using it as an excuse for their bad manners.

    The person employed by the supermarket to gather carts is not employed to return your cart to the cart return near your vehicle. They are employed to gather the carts from the cart return near your vehicle and bring them back to the store building’s cart return.

    By doing this, you do not create more jobs (as the cart return employee position already exists whether you return your cart or not), you create more work for an already probably underpaid employee and you also increase everyone’s autoinsurance because when the wind blows the carts damage other people’s vehicles.









  • +1 for Black Lagoon, W anime pick.

    Also for Ghost in the Shell, PatLabor, and Redline.

    I will also add on:

    • Jin-Roh/Jin-Rou (not the Korean live action from 2019), but it does briefly show a child on screen as a supporting character, and I dont remember if Kei was over 18-20 or not

    • AD Police Files, and its related series Parasite Dolls (unfortunately, the other related series Bubblegum Crisis and Bubblegum Crash are disqualified because Nene Romanov is 18 and Priss is 19, both under 20)

    • Space Dandy (maybe, that anime had like a billion characters and I dont remember if all of them were adults or not, but its not exactly a kid oriented anime)
