Yeah, Diane is the main one. How many times have we had amnesia plots with her? This is the third? It's getting to be too much.

It's definitely very popular. From what I've seen, it's constantly in the top 5 sales whenever it releases a new volume. I just hope they decide to animate more and not take 4 years to do so.

I like dub enough, it’s pretty good. But I sort of enjoyed the sub better, it felt more fitting. Both are worth checking out, but the sub is the best way to go way imo.

This season has been not bad for me. Escanor's episode was easily the highlight of the season. I am a little bit disappointed because the first OP for this season showed some really awesome stuff and I was really excited to get into it, and then we never did, and we still haven't. We're still dealing with a few different sideplots that I just want to go away already so we can get to the good stuff. Unfortunately, it really feels like the season is gonna end before any of the good stuff starts, making it a 2 cour set-up...

I'm probably not gonna get to 15 for a while cause I'm watching it with a good friend, and he is going to be busy for a while b/c of personal reasons.

Episode 13... well it clearly had the most effort put into it for any episode of the show, I can at least say that much. The episode doesn't do anything outright bad, but I don't care about 02 or Hiro, so the reveals in this episode had little effect on me since I already do not care for the characters. Hiro as a child was pretty annoying honestly, all of his internal monologue was much deeper than anything a kid his age would actually think (a problem that plenty of shows have with child characters, namely E R A S E D) + him headpatting 02 left a bad taste in my mouth. Really just because headpats don't work for me when the two characters are supposed to be on an equal field narratively, it comes across as... I don't know how to put it. I'd call it sexist I guess (at least in general)? Idk man I don't know how to explain it, I don't like it.

As for 14... I certainly don't like it, not for the same reasons as most people that shit on the episode. Ichigo has always been my least favorite character in the series because I think the romantic melodrama involving her is complete crap, but she acted completely in character in episode 14. She's just a horrible character. She did indeed act very selfish that episode, her decisions were pretty much motivated by this factor, but I wouldn't say she is bad as a person, just as a character. Writing was also really weak because 02 and Hiro had to coincidentally leave to go visit each other at the exact same time, just so the separation drama can cut deeper. 02 also has to completely lose her shit and not listen to any sort of reason once Hiro isn't there, accusing them of lying to her? Like, I understand that she is not in the best mental state during these events, but that's not entirely convincing to me.

honestly though I hate the show less compared to like, 11 episodes in. Its still fucking bad but the intensity of my hatred for the past few episodes has waned. My 1/10 might rise, depends on how the rest goes.

FLCL is characterized by its high energy and witty, yet insightful and even at times poetic dialogue. Alternative had none of that. Instead of the soundtrack being the soul of the story, it felt like everyday background music. All the designs suck, including the mechs and Haruko's new look.

I personally adore K-On, but different strokes for different folks.

I also pretty much hated it. I'm also holding out hope for Progressive. What I saw was so limp and insulting that it shocks me it has FLCL in the title.

I usually wait and binge (that's just how it works out), but no worries! Megalo Box is a potential AOTS for me. Looks great from what I've seen and heard

Maybe after the season has ended. 5 seasonals are already to much for me.

About Megalo Box, I really was interested in watching it for a long time now.

And I gotta say, it was way better than what I had imagined before. It really was damn good, for a first ep.

Very looking forward to see the rest. I'll (try to) watch Ashita no Joe asap, same goes for Ippo, but I've been telling that to myself for a long time now haha.

I read them all as physical manga only, as I do with 99% of my manga. ^^

No idea where the best ones are, but you could check /r/Berserk or use these.

Enjoy either way~

I didn't even watched it. I pretty much knew that it was going to be bad

what your thoughts on the new flcl

Glad you're enjoying it! I'm watching mostly the sub since it's available on Youtube at the time. Yuto Nakano voices Ginko pretty well.

MUSTANG VOICES GINKO!? Where are you watching the dub?

thank u sir
u also have good taste

That's great to hear!

If you are this much of praise for the adaption, you'll be astound by the manga even more.

Best would be read it from beginning on, that's the best experience to be had with Berserk imo. Try that if you like.
