BK-201

When I started the series I thought it was going to be like
Kono Oto Tomare by was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't. The music really drew me in, we have had a pretty decent season.

And yes, Super Cub gets my official BK hidden gem seal of approval!

I had no expectations for Mashiro no Too besides it being good. The trailers did a good job drawing me in. I wish all the shows I start could be at least as good as it. Niche music anime seem to be a hit.

Meanwhile Koikimo ended on a high. I got too into that last episode.

Nice ending, would be nice to get a special to see them as a family maybe a time skip.

I feel as long the manga is still ongoing the anime is probably over. I'm almost concerned what the future for Koikimo would be since the draw for most romance series is the chase.

Without having seen ep 3, I'm already back in love with this series. Ep 2 was fantastic. Saki focussed eps are my favourite ones. Maybe I'm just being biased since Miyano Mamoru is still just as entertaining as well.
What are you're thoughts?

It has got off to a great start, s1 felt more a intro, pilot to see if Zombie and Idols would be popular. S2 feels like we know we have a successful idea so let's tell a proper story and the quality is significantly better. The songs are good and the animation is top notch

Don't forget the humour as well. The writers know what they can get away with. Their cast certainly can deliver.
Everything about this series is fantastic including how it was advertised. No one knew what would happen, the PVs were misleading and they had Miyano dressed as Tatsumi.

I had heard it was a good manga too. So I guess Netflix took that literally. Thought it might be worth asking since it got a S2 announcement and you gave it a 6. Guess this is one I won't waste my time on.

The manga is great and really funny, I 100% recommend the manga.

eh. But you know what I'm like with manga. I barely read them. That sounds like a lot of hassle to me. Although yakuza husband...

I'm 10 Billion% watching that! Great 1st episode, love the gritty rundown vibe, reminiscent of the style used for Cowboy Bebop or Trigun.

So Megalobox is over now. What did you think? I thought it was good but S1 was much better. Still I believe I rated them both a 7

I liked it but I agree s1 was much better.

This is a major mood!

Also instead of Godzilla the thing people have to watch right now should be the OVA Baja no Studio from Kyoani. I miss finding stuff like this.

That was cute, reminded me of Chi. I'd like a series of Baja's adventures.

I wasn't exactly reminded of Chi but having such an innocent desire to explore was nice to see again. I have to say I honestly enjoyed Baja more than I am currently enjoying Kyoani's Violet Evergarden.
I think the voice fit it perfectly. @Noobs would probably get a kick out of it too.

You are most welcome but I can't take all the credit, I'm sure Noobs had a part too. I have to see that too looks great.

Thanks for inviting, will be using that now as Skype has been a pain in the arse recently for me.

It was nail biting stuff. I really enjoyed it, would love a second series following his journey to F1.
The manga covers his journey through the different classifications and there is an arc where Capeta and Naomi race for the same team together.
Sadly the scanlations are not regular and miss out on many chapters.

I'd have to agree, until those last races they were fun butTHOSE ones were in a league by themselves. The family and friendship vibes also made it enjoyable. I may have teared up at one stage.
They race on the same team? Wow. I'd like more but we both know that isn't going to happen.

I haven't watched any great shorts recently, so I don't have much to share.
But more importantly, mesmerised you say? I saw you had started it, and now you've caught right up with me. I was surprised to see you start it after my post.
I'm glad I inadvertently shared it with you.

I'm a huge F1 fan so when I read your post and checked MAL, I had to watch it. I love how they make the races so nail biting.

Not sure if I knew that, f1 huh? Interesting. I don't think there'll be another anime like Capeta out there for you so I'm glad you're enjoying it so much.
The races have been fun, I just wish the time skip wasn't as awkward after ep 14. Can't believe you've seen more than me now.

Cool, will have a look.
Are you on discord (chat client)? I don't use skype much but discord is what I mostly use. if you want we could chat on there. Soul has recently started using it too. The group with the mostly former JD members is quite slow so no hundreds of messages so can chat more easily.

I'm not on Discord, the community was on Skype so I went with that as you know. I just figured it was real slow right now since all the chats are currently there. Hell I don't even use Skype anymore in the first place.
Soul is back, you can say hi to her for me.

Sure will do.
If you do decide to join let me know and I'll friend you on there.

That was really nice. Is that series any good and should I start watching it?

After checking, I've got to the stage where I forgot that the song wasn't actually in the anime. It just goes so well with it.

That really depends, do you like parody and crude humour? I love it for these reasons but unless you're a fan then I doubt you'd like it as much. I will say ep 1 is one of the greatest episodes I have ever seen due to these reasons.
It ended today though....
