Hmm, I bet it has more to do with brightness and contrast more than anything else. So, in that respect, CRTs are significantly dimmer than modern LCDs. Additionally, CRTs were just much smaller than most people's living room TVs these days, so it would take up a much smaller portion of somebody's field of view. It's an interesting question though.
Mild manga spoilers
There is definite, explicitly romantic feelings at least in one direction between the main pair.
That's the exact same comparison that ran through my head.
I really, really like this manga. So, I am very much looking forward to this when it comes out.
No date or PV released yet. I haven't found an English source yet, but here is a JP source. Synopsis of the source manga from AniList:
One day, while rushing to a piano lesson, a girl named Saki collides with someone on the street. As Saki collects herself, the stranger picks up the sheet music Saki dropped, hands it to Saki together with a band-aid, and continues on her way—all without saying a word. Saki is left wondering about the identity of the tall, lovely stranger, only to discover the next day that she is one of her classmates at her new high school. The girl’s name is Kanon, and though she is hearing impaired, she refuses any kind of support or “special treatment” from her teachers or classmates. Over the course of the year, Saki slowly grows closer to Kanon and begins to chip away at her cold exterior.
When I saw that title, I knew I had to include the whole damn thing. It's just too ridiculous.

"The Daily Life of a Middle-Aged Online Shopper in Another World" New Key Visual, PV
(ogre.natalie.mu)
Premieres January 2025. The new PV is here. Check out the ANN article for additional information. Synopsis from AniList:
Kenichi, a single man in his 40s, transmigrates to another world while foraging in the mountains, and he gets out of danger by using the special online shopping skill that he was given when he was transferred. With the buy-back function, he can cash in his otherworldly belongings and buy goods from modern Japan. When he started selling those items in the market, they quickly became popular and sold for a good price. He could have continued to grow his store, but Kenichi's goal is to live a slow life. He is happy living self-sufficiently on the outskirts of town, but one after another, trouble arises.
A middle-aged man's mail-order life in another world begins now!
~~Truck~~Bus-kun claiming victims back then too.
Thanks for sharing!
Really interesting perspective on this issue. Out of curiosity at one point, I got my hands on the porygon episode and the flashing is certainly jarring. It didn't really bother me, but my wife said it gave her a headache (just a minor one, not a migraine fortunately). I had no idea that there was so much that came out of that incident. Really neat!
Wow, that sent me down a rabbit hole of searching. I am old enough to have messed around with lots of VHS tapes in my day, but I was still too young to know what was going wrong with the picture. Reading how Macrovision screwed up the picture through desyncing the scanning explains why some of the "non-authentic" tapes I got never played right for me.
Premieres sometime in 2025. The new PV is here. Check out the Crunchyroll article for more info. Synopsis of the source manga from AniList:
The setting is a baseball stadium! It's not only the players and spectators who gather there, but also beer vendors, announcers, security guards, and cheerleaders… They come together, work, laugh, and create human drama every day. It is like a town in miniature. Now, why don't you come and become a "resident" at the ballpark!?
Premieres January 2025. The new PV is here. Check out the AC article for additional information. Synopsis of the source manga from AniList:
One fateful day, all of humanity was petrified by a blinding flash of light. After several millennia, high schooler Taiju awakens and finds himself lost in a world of statues. However, he’s not alone! His science-loving friend Senku’s been up and running for a few months and he's got a grand plan in mind—to kickstart civilization with the power of science!
Yes! It's the kind of thing that you could only notice on a rewatch.
I had similar criticisms of AoT season 1 and dropped it. I might have to find time to pick it back up again sometime in the future.
Hearing a lot of good things about Orb
Give it three episodes and see what you think. The first three episodes provide a nice little arc and set things up for the future. Next to Dan Da Dan, Orb has been my favorite of the season.
Premieres January 11, 2025. The new PV is here. Check out the Crunchyroll article for more info. Synopsis from AniList:
