Kaiju No. 8

One Like = One candle in memoriam for those character designs lost in the animation translation

THAT BEING SAID.

HOLY SH*T!!!!! ITS HERE!!!!! KAIJU NUMBER 8!!!! LETS F*CKING GOOOO!!!!!!!!

I also want this to be a warning/ call-out post and addresses two major things that I think people are going to have a problem with.

1) I get it. The Character design wasn't what we asked for. I don't know who thought it was a good idea to get the guy who did Naruto and give him the reigns over character design, but they should of given that another few seconds more thought. (I guess they picked him because he's kinda famous and they wanted some of that "Big Three" luck to rub off on this?) But that doesn't mean that the show would be judged on this alone. The animation seems to be big budget Fluidtm for most of the shots and we might be getting some expositional filler/ big ticket action sequences to flesh out the story more than it does in the manga. I, for one, look forward to them ( hopefully) adding on to the training montages because they don't really feel as important as I think they should be in the story. We could also have been living in a time line where this never got animated in the first place sooo..... there's that.

2) To those of you who have no idea what Kaiju No. 8 is and are only watching it because everyone keeps telling you "Oh, Its just like Attack on Titan." And you are looking for something similar to fill the void, DO NOT get it in your head that this is anything more than "Get Strong, Fight Monster, Repeat." This sounds like an insult, but it isin't. Kn8 is a very simple show and that should be its biggest appeal for it. Ya'll spent 11 years watching an intense political thriller disguised as a monster fighter. This is supposed to act as a palette cleanser and filler untill something more complex decides to air. Like a piece of pickled ginger after sushi. Something simple, bright, and exciting that you don't have to think about too much.

I see so many people say that the manga is falling off and I'm sitting like "Yes it lacks a little in the sustenance department, but you came for monster fights... are you not still entertained?" I just think people are going to come into this with higher expectations than normal, thinking this is going to ride off the coattails of a very well loved/vaguely hated franchise that set a high bar for anything that might come after it and I don't want people to walk out of this fandom thinking its just a cheap imitation. Its Bromance and Monster Blood. That is it, nothing more, and that's why its good.

Thats it for this disclamer. Hope y'all enjoy the opening of this Homoerotic I mean, bromantic rendition of Pacific Rim, filled to the top with lovable characters, heartfelt moments, and intense action.

PSA

I've yet to see anyone mention it yet but if you have a Crunchyroll account (premium specifically) then you should go and change your password immediately. Someone leaked a bunch of account info on Twitter and I'm hearing that user's are not only logging on to others accounts but changing the password so the original user can't get back in.

UPDATE:

The post is gone and the account is suspended. No word from Crunchyroll yet.

With them seemingly having now their own colored pajamas now...maybe we get more focus on their personalities in the next season?

Or perhaps drama on them drifting apart but them not noticing it?

....but I think I'm looking too close into it

Tbh I wouldn't mind if we get more slice of life moments than comedy...but keep the comedy please

News - Crunchyroll has announced that the Funimation app will finally shut down on April 2, 2024. Paid Funimation subscribers can migrate their account to Crunchyroll (including their watch history and queue), or merge their Funimation account with a pre-existing Crunchyroll account, if they happen to share the same email address.

Crunchyroll also announced that they will not support Funimation's digital copy content, so any digital copies of Funimation anime you may have purchased or had claimed with codes included in your Funimation DVD/BDs will no longer be available to watch in your libraries after the shut down date.

How's your day going

[cubedmango]

the official announcement went under completely the radar, but the cherry magic anime is actually being licensed for international release by medialink! they will be posting the eps on their youtube channel ani-one asia every thursday at 00:00 (utc+8), and to view it you must 1) join their paid youtube membership program and 2) be watching from specific south asian and southeast asian countries (full list of countries is in the announcement)! if you are able to pay and are from a country where its not blocked, this is currently the one way you can watch the anime internationally!

EDIT: finally, the anime has also been picked up by crunchyroll!!

Chris Grace as Scarlett Johansson SPOILERS

i love how long they held on Sam in Make Some Noise kinda sitting there not saying anything too specific, so we don't quite know if they actually shot anything just for this, before the next five minutes happen.

and it's wild we're getting a parody of a normal episode of Gastronauts before ya know a normal episode of Gastronauts

News - For those of you in North America, Crunchyroll has added the first 15 episodes of the classic magical girl series Fairy Princess Minky Momo for Premium Members. Previously, these episodes had appeared on the small streaming platform, Darkroom. It is still unclear if Darkroom has official license for these, as not much information could be found on the company and who runs it. But the episodes on CR seem to be similar or the same to theirs, so I guess only time will tell if we see any more episodes uploaded.
