Tbh I have started to not care about the scores i give to shows especially adaptions so there’s a higher chance then there was before that will give shows lower & higher scores then I usually would but below will still be considered.
completed shows that have no score maybe are shows i watched years ago and don't know what score to give them/1 or 2 episodes that have separate entry's for some reason like entry's that say Episode 11 etc.
----------------------------------------
Story - did i like it and was it entertaining to me did it keep me immersed.
Emotional Impact - did the anime make me laugh , cry , angry and care about what was happening.
Characters - do i like any of the characters or all of them or just a select few
Animation - was the anime handled well , does it have good or bad animation and how did it impact my enjoyment and watching Experience.
Visuals - Did i like the series Character Art and the aesthetic of scenery
*Not all shows I drop will be because I don't like it,
(Notice) I like and don't mind Ecchi shows ( depends on the series) so if they are rated higher then you would score them then sorry i also find it funny that a lot of people complain that a series is too Ecchi despite it having a Ecchi tag and their over the top reactions to it lol and i also don't get bothered by the humour in a lot of battle shonen shows or other shonen shows in general.
Manga's will be mainly rated on Art and Pacing, Characters, story and ending and my overall enjoyment same with light novel's but illustrations instead of art.
I own Physically a lot of the manga and Light Novels i am currently reading or have finished reading but a few maybe an exception due to lack of availability Physically or Digitally.
The Eris OVA could be watched after Episode 16 (Part 2 - Episode 5) since the OVA takes place at the same timeline to that episode, or you could just save it for after Episode 17 if you do not want to break up Episode 16 and 17 since they work very well together. It's optional.
And yeah, it's how I felt about reading the books after giving it another chance and telling myself not to drop it like I did the first time. It became less about not dropping it initially and more about genuinely enjoying what I am reading till the end.
Aye, CGI used in Trigun Stampede is stellar. Studio Orange has once again proven that in the anime industry they are the grandmasters of CGI.
As for that anime itself, haters gonna hate. CGI looked fantastic, and the show hadn't been advertised as a faithful adaptation of the source material, but just another Trigun anime project. While being heavily influenced by the manga, it went its own way.
Funny enough, it grasps themes known from Trigun and Trigun Maximum manga (especially the latter one) way better than any other Trigun anime installment.
I know right. Sometimes, when you finally find some free time to chill, you don't have enough motivation or energy to do what you have originally planned to do, lol.
By the way, have you heard about a show called Trigun Stampede?
Hello! Bloody hell, it's been almost 2 years since we talked last time. Time is surely galloping really fast. How have you been? I hope everything's alright.
As for me, I'm alright. Yeah, sometimes real life activities prevent from not only enjoying as much anime and manga as you'd like to, but also chill with other mediums as well, haha.
Yeah, I heard about MF Ghost. It looks really promising. I will definitely check it out soon. Eurobeat and car races is always a wonderful mix.
Yes. Ultimately from the emotions that he is trying to figure out, he knows that he does not want her to abandon him again and Chise obviously wants both of them to trust each other (even she had to work on relying on others and not just herself), so Elias is taking caution to not just get on her bad side again.
Harvest Festival is around 40 chapters, include the Post-HF stuff and that's 45ish. Basically this arc is the whole season.
This arc is way more enjoyable in manga form when I can either binge chapters at a nice pace or read it weekly and having to only spend a quick minute or two on chapters. Seeing 20+ minutes of 1-2 chapters be adapted in anime form with barely any animation makes it feel way slower than it is. Especially considering the massive shounen anime people are talking about in comparison to this season. In the manga, binging 40 chapters and this arc feels like a breeze in comparison.
I still think that Harvest Festival is a great arc, just in manga form only. The anime is so slow as an adaptation in general that my hype is low now for it at the moment. Iruma's anime is really good with shorter arcs but longer arcs have always been an issue for it. Whether it's the Battler arc in season 1 being too dragged out, or Walter Park. This one's a more extreme case since this is going to last the entire season too.
Not too much additional thoughts. It's definitely a worry considering game adaptations always struggle and Nier's the kind of game that can't just be rushed and the structure doesn't fit an anime perfectly. I do want to see 2B in anime form but not really at the cost of the game being butchered in anime form and no one caring for it like the end. I do hope they use the game's music too or the composer doing music really similar at least to this. The soundtrack for the game is way too good for the anime to let me down in this aspect at least.

Deadass just copy pasted everything and it just lacks everything in terms of creativity and dynamic.
I’m not luxurious enough to buy physical copies.

I'm specially more pumped to keep rewatching since that latest trailer was so damn good.
