I'll add it to the queue. It really is good. The art style gave me Howls Moving Castle/Kikis Delivery Service vibes. The site I'm watching it on has Dawn of The Deep Soul behind a paywall, so I don't get to see what happens between season 1 and 2 until I get my neighbor to bootleg it for me. I'm pressing on with it in the meantime. Click To View Spoiler The part where Riko has to take a dump while in the elevator answers the long standing question of "What happens if someone have to take a shit in this situation?". At that point I imagine both her and Reg have grown accustomed to doing their business while one stands overwatch nearby. While not necessarily required, it definitely adds a small detail that reminds you that the characters are human.

Any of you guys Bleach fans?
Maybe I'm just a masochist but I'm thinking of starting to slowly work through another long Shonen amd compared to the others that I haven't seen Bleach has always seemed cool So is it worth it? How would you rate it compared to one's I love like Gintama, One Piece, YuYu, JoJo or HxH? |

It's hard to explain just how awesome the latest Frieren episode is (ep. 20) - understated action paired with amazingly powerful storytelling is such a rare treat.

How would you rate it compared to one's I love like Gintama, One Piece, YuYu, JoJo or HxH? View Quote Bleach is the best and worst of anime. The cannon arcs are freaking amazing the problem is the literal hundred+ of filler episodes. IIRC there are over 150 filler eps. I finally gave up on the show when they started one season with something to the effect of... We know we left off here BUT we're going to transport to a different reality any show a different story for a while.. or something to that effect (it's been a LONG time) I can't stand One Piece, JoJo or HxH. Never watched the others ones. They are way too cartoony for me and I couldn't make it past a few episodes. I forced myself to watch the entire first season of One Piece because it's my niece's favorite show but I had to quit. |

Banished from the Hero's Party, I Decided to Live a Quiet Life in the Countryside season 1 was not particularly memorable, but it was 'OK', with some typical adventurer themes, and an OP MC.
Season 2 seems to have totally lost whatever semblance of normalcy it had in the first season, and instead has devolved into a bizarre combination of siscon taboos, loli assassin intrigue, fan service, but most of all, an uninteresting, meandering, and jumbled storyline. Maybe, just maybe it is headed somewhere interesting, but if so, it's sure taking its sweet time in getting there. |
