~Look Down, You're Talking to Your Highness~[R]
I have some stuff to eat, I just didn't feel like it yesterday. But I'm eating now.
What is with these Wikis and using the most random pictures they can find for characters? Danganronpa and Highschool DxD are the worst at this I've noticed. Highschool DxD makes a little bit of sense since most characters are currently only in the books so they usually just have the covers to use them for, but for anime characters they just pick the most random scenes for them instead of using their book covers or official art. so some characters look out-of-focus or badly-drawn. And then Danganronpa constantly mixes together cutscenes, game sprites, anime scenes, and anime art together in some horrible mismatch. Even for the same character they do that! Why? It's terrible. Why can't these people just decide unanimously what media version they'll be using pictures from?
I was looking through some animes on Crunchyroll and I found a really girly spin-off version of Saint Seiya. My mom likes the original series so I showed it to her and said: "Hey look Mom! It's a Saint Seiya for the ladies!" She laughed so hard at that lol
I just found The Royal Tutor for boys :D
What's it called? Lol
I was riffing off that one time when she randomly asked me a long time ago: "I was just wondering...if He-Man is for gay men...does that mean She-Ra is for the ladies?" Which is probably why she found my comment so funny lol
The Quintessential Quintuplits. Or however you spell it
Oh yeah I've seen that advertised on Crunchyroll I think? Or maybe it was FUNimation. But I read the plot of it and thought 'hey that sounds like a gender-swapped version of The Royal Tutor set in the modern era!' if only their tutor was a girl....and if only they were princesses I still wanna watch it though lol
FunimationIt basically is. And the girls are from a rich family though i guess not royalty
But first I need to complete my goal of finishing twenty series this year. I suppose I could start other series in that time, but that just seems counter-productive and I'm worried about having even more series on my plate to finish
Did.you.lay out specific series to.watch? Maybe include that in your 20?
I have a vague list of things I need to finish but I never actually wrote it down anywhere. I suppose I could but to be honest I forgot a lot of the things that I need to finish
I just need to pick stuff to watch. I'll work on Quintuplets for now
I kinda wish I had that problem lol
I just lack motivation
My ex-boyfriend tried to talk to me yesterday evening. I have to keep asking why he keeps trying to start up pleasant conversations as if nothing happened between us? Literally anything we talk about will be awkward now. And I don't really feel like rekindling our friendship anyway
Tell him that. Unless you already have and he's a twat that won't listen, he might not realize that
I feel like I might've already told him that, but it's also entirely possible that I just think I have and haven't actually done so yet
Wet the Bed has to be one of the unsexiest songs I've ever heard in my life because I know what it's actually about but my mind is so far gone that I can only picture it being about something else
Tell him again just to be sure thenWhat's it about?
The actual song is about sweating when having sex and your sexual fluids being expelled onto said bed
As if what I was thinking of was any better lol
Bedwetting? But it is :p
So apparently I read last night that in Japan there is a huge influx of these series called 'Isekai' and it's gotten to the point that the industry is absolutely sick to death of them. Basically isekai animes are animes revolving around someone being transported to a fantasy world for some reason or another and having to deal with the situation. Obviously they're a stable of this decade the 2010's thanks to Sword Art Online which started this trend. But other examples include God's Blessing on This Wonderful World, Starting Life Over in Another World, That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime, Gate, Transported to Another World with My Smartphone, I guess Overlord kinda counts too.
The point is though is that there are so many of these that come out seemingly endlessly one after another. Unlike a lot of other series, these are almost exclusively based on YA novels and thus the publishing industry for these types of books have been rejecting and sending manuscripts back if they're about that plot because they're so sick of seeing it.
To be honest I think they're in the right here. While not all of the animes in that category are bad they've received a reputation for being cliche and watered-down and just not very good. And the ones I've seen don't really do very much with the plot. To be fair, a few do, and a few others aren't about the character funnily trying to fit in or only dedicate a short time to it. However some of them just don't. Like that Gate anime sounded like it had a perfect setup for comedy but it ruins it but making all of these girls beg on their knees to be his sex slave.
Maybe I'm being mean but I think the Japanese publishing industry made the right choice in limiting this type of plot. Almost makes me wish Western publishers would do the same thing to prevent oversaturation in their own respective markets

The isekai genre was recently BANNED in writing competitions in Japan because there's so much of it people are fed up
See, they're putting their best foot forward
I was rereading the manga ending to Assassination Classroom and I completely forgot that they implied Kaede was pregnant and I'm floored because if it's actually true then I think we are all in agreement on who the father is
i thought she was kn the anime too? at least hinted at
Really? Maybe I just forgot about it. But regardless she's definitely implied to be pregnant. It kinda looks like they were implying she had a one-night stand at least from what I think which could be kinda interesting.But come on, who wouldn't want to have a one-night stand with Nagisa? With the way he kisses?
I can check later. Or you xan :pBut he's rhe dad, no doubt
I know there are a lot of people who dislike that ship passionately because they don't think Nagisa and Kaede actually love each other OH I'M SORRY WAS THE FULL-PAGE OF EXPLICIT TONGUE-KISSING NOT OBVIOUS ENOUGH FOR YOU?
Or how afterwards they both said it made them feel 'good'
I can see people saying they may not like each other in a sexual sort of way yet since they're still kinda young, or people saying Nagisa isn't as serious as Kaede is about the relationship yet because boys don't really think about that stuff as much as girls do at that age, but they so obviously do like each other in a way that's more than friends
I cannot wait for the day when my mom finally breaks down and watches Food Wars
Wasnt it Nagisa's kiss that calmed Kaede down when she was in her rage? I mean, that sounds pretty loving to me
Yes it was. Technically it was to distract her from Koro-sensei cutting out her tentacles I just make fun of that scene because out of all the things Nagisa could've done, why was the first thing that popped into shy, socially-awkward Nagisa's head a kiss? And not just any kiss, but a French-kiss???
Also can people please stop telling me to watch The Promised Neverland?! I hear it all over the Internet and that's bad enough, but now even my mom is telling me to watch it! I looked up what it was about when I received several different RP requests for it and it really doesn't sound like something I would like. And it's super popular right now so a part of me kinda wants to watch it anyway so I can be in on it and maybe learn to love it but everytime I get that thought I just feel like I would be miserable watching it It's basically about these children in an orphanage who one day accidentally discover they're not actually being adopted as they once though; once they wear out their usefulness they get fed to these monsters. The main characters are horrified and start working on a plan to get out of the orphanage before any of the other members get eaten
It basically reminds me of Seraph of the End if Seraph of the End was about nothing but Yuu and Mika trying to escape from their orphanage. But thankfully it's not. It sounds boring to watch an entire show of children trying to make an escape plan. And I don't really wanna watch children get eaten by monsters either. It was already really traumatic in Seraph of the End. And yeah, these are actual children. Not teenagers, not preteens, not even ten-years-olds or twelve-year-olds-the oldest children are like seven or eight.
So yeah, I don't wanna watch this. So can people please stop telling me to watch it? And Mom even thinks there might be a character in it that I like! she clearly doesn't remember my 'Why Fourteen is the Perfect Age' philosophy
It sounds disturbing...even by anime standards
I'm likely just being too harsh on it but it is really similar to Seraph of the End and if I want that plot I can just watch that. It even has a lot of scenes of vampires eating children. Made even creepier by the fact that Seraph of the End explains that sucking blood to a vampire is the same as having sex so yeah
'the main character dies but gets brought back to life by the main girl in order to be used as her human shield/defender/cum slave' dude I'm dying lol
Who said that? And what show? :p
If you couldnt tell I'm collectinf a mass pile of anime to put off watching
Okay the person who wrote that was just joking lol It's a review of Princess Resurrection. It's about a boy who saves a mysterious girl his sister works for simply called 'Princess' from getting killed one day but then dies himself. But then Princess brings him back to life as her immortal servant and introduces him to the afterlife and the Underworld.
I watched it a very long time ago before I knew very much about anime and rereading the plot synopsis this sounds like a dominate girl/awkward boy anime and I'm starting to wonder if this did something to my mind at such an early age lol
I saw lots of stuff as a kid that likely made me kinky CoughTotallySpiesCough
What?
