Only thing I tolerated well was the first minute of Moonrise. It has a train, just like Kabaneri, but the action reminds me slightly more of a less energetic AoT. It looks like the kind of thing I'd give at least 3 episodes, but the characters put me off fast.
Yeah, the OP and some other aspects of Mayoiga left me expecting more. Certain parts are quite creative and funny and it sometimes has that Okada touch. But actually the drama gets bad fast, and there are way too many characters. Probably none of them should have had backstory other than the main and maybe his grill. It's all over the place.
Feels more like an actual music video than your typical OP, but I always liked this one better than the show.
Yeah, I don't know anything about what language is common to these different platforms, but I do see a lot of this stuff everywhere, lol. I guess Twitter is a bit more sophisticated because there's more writing, but insta and tik are more brainrot and weird gibberish because it's more about quick clips and pictures rather than much text.
He's saying everyone is writing AI-genned reviews, so I thought I'd try running some of his stuff through an ooga booga AI, and I don't think I can unsee it. Anytime I see Okeanix ranting, I'll think of it through this ooga booga filter. Fits him like a charm.
Huh, is Wit's Moonrise that bad? No one seems to be talking about it, and it's getting mixed reviews.
Edit: Gross. Moonrise feels very Netflix. Not in the sense of overt western tendencies or political stuff. But more like the trashy feel of Kaiju.

I think I have quite a few OP/EDs that are quite nice from otherwise awful or meh shows.
There are a few parts of his verbal dysentery that I want to comment on it. Indeed, ForeplayED and the Archbishop of Pedantry might just be one and the same. At least I think Okeanix is a separate person because his verbalizing is limited to...
"No, yours bad. Mine good! It win many shiny things. Have best tale, strong faces, all good. You use big thunder machine to make words, no real talk. You show Evangelion tribe not smart with stories. Cave folks think Season 1 best, them crazy! Them no get it, no understand show at all! Season 3 better! Many reviews on site all fake, made by bad things and grumpy no-friends. Me share own big thinks. Re:Zero get many 1/10 scores for anime, all due to small men and little thinks, me show many times. Most people no see what show do. Re:Zero big dream, mix many kinds, over 10 styles, no other anime do this. It know many kind, show much people, be many more in later season. World and story very interesting, special in all fantasy anime. Each story part bring new ideas, every time change genre to keep fresh. People still grumble. Me see fans cry because Season 3 no heavy mind game like Season 2, when Season 3 show side people more than before. If Season 3 same as Season 2, others moan it repeat. Criticism never end. What do? People no see big picture. They no see build-ups, hidden hints, or depth in each scene and speak. Re:Zero have great story, plot, hero, bad guys, side people, ups, changes, arcs, words, lore, details, depth, sneak peeks, themes, twists, hints, voice sound, music, specialness, and more. No other anime can match like Re:Zero does. Re:Zero no plot holes or messy."
lmao, I'm sure they coordinate somewhere. Anyway, I'll sift through some of the stuff that the Archbishop of Pedantry wrote and see what I find.
There's also ForeplayED (a "critic slayer") and Okeanix (formerly known as Archbishop of Anime Pillows, who considers Re:TARD to "officially be a seinen"; NUH UH! It's not a battle shonen for S3 because the whole series is a seinen).
Here is ForeplayED's channel:
https://www.youtube.com/@forclayet3989
He's mostly invested in receiving the attention of older bald men, getting about 20 views for each video when replying to Snob's totally serious critiques of Re:TARD. Even though it's hard to believe anyone would see Snob's "objective consensus" method as worth targeting. Hell, I doubt Snob even takes it seriously.
When it comes to Re:TARD fans, I was only familiar with Okeanix, as I hadn't written much of anything about Re:TARD until S3. When I watched episode 1 of Re:TARD S3 and wrote some notes back when it first came out, Okeanix came out of nowhere and left me a screeching comment about my notes (so he was intentionally checking my page to see if I had said anything). Soon after that, he locks his MAL down. He didn't return to MAL until a few days after the show finished airing and immediately messaged me to insult me. The Archbishop of Pedantry left his substack link not long after. Okeanix sent me several messages about the Archbishop of Pedantry and shilled his stack on the forums, so he's very happy about it, lol. The Archbishop of Pedantry has been promoting ForeplayED, including to Okeanix. The Archbishop of Pedantry and Okeanix have also been sending similar comments to MAL reviewers who dared to say anything negative about their favorite show, often on the same profiles and even targeting the lowest-effort reviews that are one-paragraph quickies. Meanwhile, Okeanix was spamming the Crunchyroll Awards to loads of accounts so they would vote for Re:TARD. It struck me that Okeanix, as the most rabid Re:TARD shill on MAL, was ashamed and insecure about S3 and needed to stifle criticism of it. Which has led to the formation of an anti-criticism Re:TARD clique to gallantly defend otaku Subaru and his generic moeblob romance and the author, who is clearly still processing his trauma from being bullied in high school. This was a tepid season for Tappei, and while the adaptation has issues with cut content, it's clear that a lot of the issues stem from the source.

Even in Okeanix's thread, most people are tired of his shit. XD
it was only right dear Ningen..
LMAO, Archbishop of Pedantry looking up his debate terms! XD
TL:DR It shit xD. But will make Switch 1 cheaper so it's okay XD
Ninja Kamui is a recently original anime renowned for being outrageously bad. The first ep baited people to get the wrong idea of it potentially being a masterpiece, just to fall flat right after that and dwindle to a mere mindless revenge show. Prob one of the most significant rating drops on this site fr: 8.62 => 6.64
Just encountered this seasonal one: https://myanimelist.net/anime/49778/Kijin_Gentoushou
It's like Demon Slayer but less edgy and more dramatic. The first ep was fine, guess it's still trashy but hopefully, it keeps up with the weekly enjoyment.
tbh, before MAL, there were a lot of shows I now like that I tended to drop. A watchlist makes it so much easier to finish a series more gradually.
I think it recommended me One Piece too. The worst part is that I tried searching online about it the bot chat thing, and it took me a bit to notice there was a post on the front. :S
Deboonked by a Re:TARD, no less. :P
Haibane I feel like you have to relax and go with the flow. Kind of the same with some of those shows like Aria. Don't drop it. Just watch it periodically when you're not too antsy. I find plenty of them gradually shift and become more engaging in time. Maybe think of it kind of like how many people will do some light novel reading to prepare for bed.
Damned April Fool's Dog!
