Not a shonen fan at all, but credit where it’s due. This was a phenomenal episode that is an ode to the capabilities of this medium when everything is clicking. An artistic masterclass. Substantively, as usual I found it weak, but the animators deserve all the credit in the world for producing this with all the pressure and toxic work culture shit going on at MAPPA.

I fully hope they continue taking a stand for themselves and speaking out against their conditions. The content is amazing, but not worth it at the cost of their health and well-being.

Fall 2023 Plan to Watch

Happy Fall Ya'll

As today is the first day of fall, and the last season of anime for 2023 is fast approaching, I figured there was no better time to list out what we'll be watching for the Fall 2023 Season.

This is in by no means order of rank, just how they got colleged together. All in all, we'll be starting the season with 25 shows and 4 (at the time of posting) that we'll be keeping an eye on for an official release as they still haven't been picked up.

Spy x Family Season 2 《Action ▪︎ Childcare ▪︎ Comedy》 {Crunchyroll ~ First Episode Aires Oct 7th} If you haven't seen Spy Family (btw I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be Spy vs Family, but whatever) then that's on you I guess. Like you still have time to go watch season one, and you should because it's about to get good! I'm just excited for some good comedy mixed with just the right amount of James Bond style action.

Frieren: Beyond Journey's End 《Adventure ▪︎ Drama ▪︎ Fantasy ▪︎ Magic》 {Crunchyroll ~ First Episode Aires Sept 29th} I first heard about Frieren from one of Gigguk's videos when he was talking about the manga. I love me some true fantasy anime, and I have a feeling that if the anime is as good as the manga is, that I'll be writing probably several think pieces about it.

The Kingdoms of Ruin 《Action ▪︎ Adventure ▪︎ Fantasy ▪︎ Gore ▪︎ Sci-fi》 {Crunchyroll ~ First Episode Aires Oct 6th} The premise of Machine vs Magic/revenge plot seems really interesting, and I'm intrigued by the Gore tag.

The Vexations of a Shut-in Vampire Princess 《Fantasy ▪︎ Vampire ▪︎ Comedy》 {HiDive ~ First Episode Aires Oct 7th} This looks like silly nonsense, and we love the "Vampire that doesn't drink blood" troop.

I'm Giving the Disgraced Noble Lady I Rescued a Crash Course in Naughtiness《Fantasy ▪︎ Romance ▪︎ Comedy》 {Crunchyroll ~ First Episode Aires Oct 4th} This title is a mouthful, but I'll forgive it as long as there is a good amount of sassy comedy.

The Apothecary Diaries 《Drama ▪︎ Historical ▪︎ Medical ▪︎ Mystery》 {Crunchyroll ~ First Episode Aires Oct 21st} I know a lot of people are super excited for this show. We really enjoyed Raven of the Inner Palace and are excited to see more shows just like it. The animation and artwork in the promo video look gorgeous, so we'll see if it lives up to the hype.

The Ancient Magus' Bride Season 2 Part 2 《Fantasy ▪︎ Magic ▪︎ Mythology ▪︎ Slice of Life》 {Crunchyroll ~ First Episode Aires Oct 5th} I'm so ready for this part 2! We fell in love with series back when season one first started airing. The art, the world building, the characters and their growth, and the mix of mythology is just so perfect! So excited to get to be back in this world and experience the journey it takes us on!

Ragna Crimson 《Action ▪︎ Fantasy ▪︎ Isekai 》 {HiDive ~ First Episode Aires Sept 30th} Dragons. That is all.

Undead Unluck 《Action ▪︎ Supernatural ▪︎ Comedy》 {Hulu ~ First Episode Aires Oct 6th} Look, all I know is that the last couple of anime that Disney has acquired have been bangers so I'm not going to miss out on this either.

I'm in Love with the Villainess 《Fantasy ▪︎ Girls' Love ▪︎ School ▪︎ Comedy》 {Crunchyroll ~ First Episode Aires Oct 2nd} This is one of two Yuri that we are getting this season. This one looks to be silly and goofy, and I'm always down for some silly girls love fun!

Butareba - The Story of a Man Turned into a Pig - 《Fantasy ▪︎ Isekai ▪︎ Comedy》 {Crunchyroll ~ First Episode Aires Oct 7th} This.........I mean why not. As long as it doesn't take an Inukai-san's Dog turn then I'm sure it'll be entertaining. I'm hoping for my sanity that it's just wholesome fun.

I Shall Survive Using Potions! 《Fantasy ▪︎ Isekai ▪︎ Reincarnation 》 {Crunchyroll ~ First Episode Aires Oct 7th} You know, every seasons got have at least 3 dumb, turn your brain off, lazy writing but oddly fun Isekais. This will probably be mine for the season.

FLCL: Grunge 《Action ▪︎ Avant-garde ▪︎ Comedy ▪︎ Mecha ▪︎ Sci-fi》 {Max (HBO) or Adult Swim ~ Currently Airing (Sept 8th)} Oops, I guess I'm already behind. Oh well! I'm also adding Shoelace to this as well because it aires in a couple of days (Sept 30th), but other than an article saying that it'll be on Toonami there's no official release posting for it. Anyways, I'm excited to see it, as that grunge punk artsy look is something I don't see often, but I enjoy it when I do. I heard the last two spin-offs didn't do great so I'm hoping these don't fall flat.

Firefighter Daigo: Rescuer in Orange 《Action ▪︎ Adult Cast ▪︎ Drama》 {Crunchyroll ~ First Episode Aires Sept 30th} I'm going to give this 3 episodes. I'm hoping for some intense drama, but have a feeling that this will feel like one of those "cop propaganda" shows that are prolific here in the US.

Shy 《Action ▪︎ Drama ▪︎ Super Power》 {Crunchyroll ~ First Episode Aires Oct 2nd} Who doesn't love a shy Super Hero trying to overcome their shyness to save to help maintain the safety of the world! I'm gonna give it at least 3 episodes because this could either be really good or really bad.

KamiErabi GOD.app 《Action ▪︎ High-Stakes Game》 {Crunchyroll ~ First Episode Aires Oct 4th} I was really worried at first that this was going to be some kind of spin-off of King's Game. None that the synopsis is out, we're worried it'll be some kind of mash-up between King's Game and Platinum End. I want to be wrong. Please, let me be wrong.

16bit Sensation: Another Layer 《Adult Cast ▪︎ Otaku Culture ▪︎ Comedy ▪︎ Workplace》 {Crunchyroll ~ First Episode Aires Oct 4th} Hehe haha, twist of fate, now you work on this hentai game in order to help us save the studio and also your job. I'm just enough of a degenerate that I'll probably enjoy this.

Migi & Dali 《Mystery ▪︎ Comedy》 {Crunchyroll ~ First Episode Aires Oct 2nd} Mystery Comedy? Spooky twin boys that pretend to be one boy. Huh.

Protocol: Rain 《Drama ▪︎ Video Games》 {Crunchyroll ~ First Episode Aires Oct 7th} Take the "High School Idol group that's trying to save their school" troop, but make it e-sports, net boys, and the net cafe that "saved" them. Hoping it'll be interesting.

My New Boss is Goofy 《Adult Cast ▪︎ Slice of Life ▪︎ Comedy ▪︎ Workplace》 {Crunchyroll ~ First Episode Aires Oct 7th} I don't know why, but a part of me was hoping that this man's boss was actually Goofy, but it's not Disney Jailed so there was, not gonna lie, a bit of disappointment when I realized that wasn't the case. I'll still watch it. Just means that I'll have a few less "Hyuck" jokes when I do my review.

A Girl & Her Guard Dog 《Romance ▪︎ School》 {Crunchyroll ~ First Episode Aires Sept 28th} We are...apprehensive about this one, but will give it at least 3 episodes, but if it gives us the creeps due the Age-Gap Romance troop then will probably drop it.

Stardust Telepath 《Girls' Love ▪︎ School ▪︎ Comedy ▪︎ Supernatural 》 {Crunchyroll ~ First Episode Aires Oct 9th} This is the other comedy Yuri this season, but this one has an alien girl instead!

Ron Kamonohashi's Forbidden Deductuons 《Detective ▪︎ Mystery 》 {Crunchyroll ~ First Episode Aires Oct 2nd} Wow are we a sucker for these kinds of shows. However, we've seen these swing from really good to truly awful. Hopin' I don't have to drop this one.

The Family Circumstances of the Irregular Witch 《Fantasy ▪︎ Slice of Life ▪︎ Comedy ▪︎ Supernatural 》 {Crunchyroll ~ First Episode Aires Oct 1st} A funny, lighthearted story about a Witch and her silly little human she raises. This will probably be what I watch to wind down in the evening.

Tearmoon Empire 《Drama ▪︎ Fantasy ▪︎ Comedy ▪︎ Romance ▪︎ Time Travel》 {Crunchyroll ~ First Episode Aires Oct 7th} Ah, the old is Time Travel just Isekai debate. We, for one, do not think that it is as it's still that same world even if time has changed. That aside, there isn't enough of these one world time travel shows these days, so it'll be interesting to see how this one shakes out.

These are the 4 that, at time of posting, do not have an official release (streaming or other media) to the US

The Four Brothers of Yuzuki - Where are there parents? Who is the main brother this story is about? Will there be overwhelming merchandise of these brothers who look the same but are different ages as well? These are the important questions that may never get answered.

Paradox Live - I don't know why, but for some reason, I'm getting DMMD vibes off these guys. I love DMMD. Why is this not available here in the US?

The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love You - I very vaguely remember playing this clicker idol game. Kinda sad I probably won't get to see how this show turns out.

You Were Experienced, I Was Not: Our Dating Story - Experienced how? I need to know! Don't keep secrets!!

Fall Anime Check-In

This season has a lot going on, we're a little past the halfway point now for the season, so here's a beak-down of what's worth watching: The fan favourite of the season: Chainsaw Man The underdog: Bocchi the Rock The S-tier story: The Eminence In Shadow The major studio releases: Bleach: Thousand Year Blood War SpyxFamily Part 2 My Hero Academia Season 6 To Your Eternity Season 2 The sports anime worth a watch: Blue Lock The popular but mid shows this season: Mob Psycho 100 Season 3 Reincarnated as a Sword That's honestly about it. This season is all about shonen jump series but there's still a couple solid new ones out there to check out!

So… when are we getting a full Chainsaw Man trailer?

UOOOOH 😭 😭 😭💢💢💢 correction needed

Becky is fucking hilarious oh my goodness, I was in absolute tears for the whole first 14 minutes of this one. From roasting Anya’s room size to trying to make moves on Loid, she’s just a riot and an absolute joy to watch.

This is why age restrictions exist for tv cause you got kids like Becky who will go out and try to make moves on peoples’ husbands 😂 already imagining herself as Anya’s stepmom

Yor doesn’t even know she’s got a new rival. The couch scene was great. Becky letting her hair down and then getting “drunk” off black tea just to lean on loid’s shoulder… unfortunately Yor is the wrong person to do that around, she’ll rush you to the hospital.

Need a spin off AU where Yor gets isekai’d after getting hit by that car lmao

Also a spin off of Becky as Yor’s apprentice/growing up to be an assassin would be cool. If you can’t beat em, join em. Yor might be the perfect woman for now, but you can get there one day, Becky. We believe in you!

Nightfall’s segment while short, was also great. Her blank outer expression while acting like a giddy high schooler on the inside will never not be funny. Kinda feel bad for her being such a best girl candidate and not getting the recognition. Taking on all of Loid’s normal missions while he was on the cruise arc was so sweet of her. And getting souvenirs from Loid made it all worth it for her.

Would’ve been great if she got caught during her skipping scene in the hallway 😂

Awesome episode as usual

Fall 2023 Anime Watch List Update

Hello hello again!

Now that fall season has officially started, I thought I'd give a little update on my finalized watch list for the season.

In our master watchlist post, I made a couple of weeks ago I stated that these 4 anime had yet to be picked up by a streaming service. Well, we're in luck everyone because all 4 of these shows will be on Crunchyroll this season!

Now, apparently, I must hate myself because I've added 3 more shows to my list. All of these shows will be streaming on Crunchyroll. One of which I was on the fence about but have decided to give it a go. One of which didn't have a streaming service yet, but now it does, and I was interested, so why not! And the last I didn't even know about until I was scrolling on Crunchyroll's Simulcast tab.

BullBuster - Mecha ▪︎ Sci-fi: Now I don't generally like Macha anime, but I do love a good Kaijuu anime. I don't know, the synopsis gave us NGE vibes, so I'll give it at least 3 episodes.

Kawagoe Boys Sing - Comedy ▪︎ Music ▪︎ School: I enjoy these types of shows, but when it didn't have a streaming platform yet, I kinda pushed it way to the side. Now that it does, I figured I might as well add it to my list.

Let Me Check the Walkthrough First - Comedy ▪︎ Fantasy: So, this is an interesting case. After doing a bit of research, I learned that this show actually aired in Spring 2022 season. However, Crunchyroll is streaming it as a "new" show this season. With this show being a Chinese production, I'm assuming that Crunchyroll just received the rights to it, but instead of just putting the entire show up, they are going to do weekly episodes????

Idk makes no sense to me, but whatever, I guess. I'm just going to go ahead and watch/review it for this season because my Anime Wheel Challenge wheel is already so full.

Speaking of the AWC!

I have an update post about that coming in the next couple of days. It's mostly just a post going over what's already been watched and reviewed, how making video versions is going, and the challenge series as a whole is going to operate in the meantime. So yeah, look out for that post soon because I'm still going to be doing that while also keeping up with this Fall Season.

An Update about Summer 2023 Season Reviews

I'm also still working away on my reviews for Summer 2023 season. I plan on doing like a very slimmed down TLDR master post version as well as individual reviews of each show, but they're just taking a bit of time to write. I'll be posting the individual reviews first and the master post last because of Tumblr blog scrolling aesthetics. The first individual review will be coming out so as well, so get excited for that too!

Anyway, I have a bunch of shows I'll be watching this season, so wish me luck because so far, our Executive Disfunction has been winning. We're almost done setting up our basic office setup just to get us started on a few things, so hopefully, that will help our productivity!

So yeah, that's all 34 shows (if you count the 2 rollovers, and the 1 out of place show) that we'll be watching this season.

Happy Seasonal Watching Ya'll!
