It hurts me soul to see something like Fairy Tail beating The Elusive Samurai. I'm surprised enough people still care about that show to watch it.

So far it's been the following:
- Bang Brave Bang Bravern - Big gay robots. Hilarious show.
- Skip and Loafer - Succeeds more than any anime I've seen at making the characters feel like people.
- Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken - Fun story about making anime.
- Vivy -Fluorite Eye's Song- - The only "robots rebel against humanity" anime I've ever liked.
- ODDTAXI - An excellent story about a guy who gets wrapped up in some shady dealings he'd rather avoid.
There's been some other great stuff too of course but I wouldn't say that anything else I've seen that's been released since 2020 has been overrated.
As for worst it's gonna be hard to beat The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel - Northern War and Ex-Arm.
I use apps that aren't available in my region for language study, so this could end up being a real problem for me.
The use of color is really gonna help with the same-face-syndrome this series suffers from. I can't tell Chinatsu and Hina apart at all without looking at their hair in the manga!
Normally horror manga doesn't translate super well to anime. There have even been some unfortunate instances of this with Junji Ito's work in the past. The art in this trailer looks really good though, so I've got some hope that this'll actually do the manga justice.
Redline proved to me that you don't necessarily need a good story to have an excellent movie. You just need a story that isn't bad, and then if you make everything cool as hell it'll work out.
JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure - characters look way more adult than they are
One of my favorite moments was in part 5 when
JJBA Part 5
a character asks Giornio if he has a driver's license and he goes, "Nope! I'm 15!"
My favorites have been :
- Bang Brave Bang Bravern - Big dumb gay robots
- Mobile Fighter G Gundam - Big dumb straight robots
- Redline - Just some fun racing action. Some of the best animation I've ever seen.
- Wotakoi - Love story between nerdy office workers
- Legend of the Galactic Heroes - The best space opera
- One Punch Man - depressed superhero
Their support sucks though. I had one of their controllers die on me after only 8 months of moderate use and after a way-too-long back and forth they demanded $15 to send me a new controller. Eventually we settled on $5, which is still $5 more than it should have been.
It refers to the Jappanese Language Proficiency Test, or JLPT. The easiest version of the test is N5, and the hardest is N1.
Every friend I still keep in contact with is someone I met in college, so this makes a lot of sense to me.
Sounds like it'll be well worth the watch then! Now to somehow forget about this until it's closer to actually airing...
