One thing I noticed when watching it is Netflix still changes the name to avoid copyright, which after 5 parts I'm used to by now, but I was still hoping it was CR just having no money to try and get the rights.
Yeah like I hoped that too but it doesn't surprise me given how batshit insane the music industry is about copyright. That and Jojo seems to have a history of these localizations since even in the games have to localize the names. I said this in the Jojo thread but I think this has to do with what happened when they tried to localize the Jojo PS2 game where Prince's legal team made sure it was never released due to a stand being named after a Prince song

At this point ridiculous localized stand names are pretty much a tradition, it would feel wrong not to hear what the stupidly silly translations they decide to make for the Part 7 and 8 stands.

That being said, I always make sure to hunt down pirated subs with fixed stand names.

I'll say, I found out a few days ago there's something called a melody copyright claim on youtube, which means most of the time cover songs preformed/sung by someone are subject to copyright strikes and if there not deleted all ad revenue goes to the label holder of said song.
 
Isn't a new season of Bleach coming out next year? I dropped it after the arrancar arc, but would it be worth watching? There's also the hell sequel.
I’d say no. The final arc is a dumpster fire from start to finish that tosses out a bunch of one-note villains, and that’s not even touching on the ending. There’s only one chapter of the bonus hell arc so far so I can’t judge it too much but it seems to be taking on a darker tone.

If you’re really curious about the Thousand-Year Blood War arc I’d recommend just looking up a synopsis.

Other than being rushed AF towards the end and the last two chapters being a 10-year time skip, it's not much worse than the Arrancar arc. If you enjoyed everything that came before it I'd argue it's worth at least skimming.
 
I like JuJutsu Kaisen but the Fanbase (as usual) is an absolute mess, reminds me a lot of the fandom around AoT at its peak. Like I know anime fans have always been tards but at least back in the day they were tards in their own designated areas and didn't leak out all over the place like radioactive rats escaping captivity.

Just watched Spice & Wolf since I heard a bunch of people talking about it. It's pretty good even if it badly suffers from the "only get limited nr of seasons and ends in the middle of the story" syndrome.
I like the show, even if reddit loves to constantly mention it every fucking time. Its a breath of fresh air to the constant Isekai LN shitter craze.

I think it predates the isekai craze by quite a bit. It's just annoying in anime format because it's a slow burn romance with small episodic mini arcs it stretches across several episodes. I guess I'll have to look up the novel.
 
Who else reads Tongari Boushi no Atelier (Witch Hat Atelier)?
I love mangas that have a good mixture of action/cutesy stuff.
Definitely cleanse the bad taste after reading another isekai copycat manga.

The manga has beautiful art.

Don't forget top tier potato reaction faces and villains at least that's what the Brimhats are so far along the story having very intricate designs and the best fashion sense.
 
Miyazaki comes out of retirement.

Even at 80 for an Asian, The man knows he doesn't have much time left and doesn't want to leave the mortal veil with the last image of anime on his mind being; dragon ball z super, girls UND panzer, And my hero academia, plus all the botched adaptations of anime made by the west.


no offense to anyone who likes the animes I mention btw, I just have a feeling old man Miyazaki doesn't.

I wish he could have made his movie before Weathering With You came out, that way I have a palette cleanser after forcing myself to watch that abomination.

Seriously, someone should kick Shinkai out of the anime industry, he's done nothing special or anything remotely useful in the space.

I know Miyazaki is a huge tank sperg so maybe Girls Und Panzer wouldn't be too bad. But then again, I don't think he liked moe that much.

I didn't care much for Your Name but what issues did you have with Weathering With You? I thought it was a much better movie in every way.

but we already have mushoten ond ousama ranking saving anime, and the last few films miyazaki made were complete trash. This feels less like a last hurrah and more like a stubborn ree if you ask me.
 
Waccha PriMagi: Hogwarts in the beginning turned me off, didn't make it past 10 minutes
I was drunk the first time I watched it so I decided to try it out again and found it to be a lot of fun. Ended up watching the rest. The excitement of the characters is infectious and the music is catchy.
 
something might have happened to finalize the last part left hanging from the peace treaties between Harmony Gold and the rest of Earth

they don't list any random macross on their site like Movefone, either, just Plus probably based on it in theaters next week via Fathom
 
The main complaints(or at least the loudest) of Bleach’s ending were the same I heard for Naruto and any long running series: “the pairing I liked didn’t happen therefore the entire manga sucks and the creator intentionally lied to me!”

Not saying Bleach didn’t have other issues, I just remember the shipping drama being ridiculous.
