Seitokai ni mo Ana wa Aru! Episode 3 First Tan gets put in the CBT machine. Then Tan gets a breathmint where the sun don't shine. And finally, Komaro brags about knowing the size of Ume's trouser snake in front of Ume's massive brocon of a sister, earning her respect(and headpats!)

False Memory was incredible. It came out of nowhere, so I had my doubts about it initially. Now it's a top contender in an already stacked season. I did not want to accept Guan Chao's fate since episode 1. I knew it was coming. I lied to myself right up until the last moment.

God, where do I even begin with Victory Gundam? Like, I don't even want to honor it with pictures; it's that upsetting to me! A few weeks back it gave me nightmares about it having sequels, and last night after the finale, I couldn't sleep for an hour because it was just that fucking stupid!

...That's Victory Gundam! Every woman in this show is somehow weirdly atracted to poor Uso, who's just 12 years old. Someone get this kid to another franchise! Anyway, the aforementioned bitch is Katejina. God, I've never hated a character so much in my life. At least Victory has that.

Anyway, rant over. Victory Gundam is a miserable experience on par with Double Zeta. If you really want to see Tomino do a show about the horrors of war, go watch Space Runaway Ideon.

I had so little investment in this show, that by the end I can barely name the cast. Uso is Tomino's abuse goblin, Shakti starts out okay but become the literal idiot ball, Tomas and Odello made a nice team, Marbet was pretty cool... We had a discount Char, but he did nothing for 51 episodes.

And we had THE BITCH too. God, the women in this show. Y'all know this dumb meme that popped up recently? The one that makes Misato from Evangelion out to be a massive pedo when all she did was maybe tease him and give Shinji a kiss right when everything went to shit? That's not NGE...

The villains are off their rockers. They have a feminist version of killpeopleism. They execute people with guilotines and raze entire cities while pretending they are doing it for some greater good. It's even dumber that these psychos get spared and are sometimes taken prisoner. Just ice 'em!

Our brave heroes of the LEAGUE MILITAIRE aren't that much better. I have never seen a bigger bunch of suicidal idiots in my life. I get that Tomino tried to show us the pointlessness of war, but here, people WITH OTHER OPTIONS simply decide, "OKAY, IT'S MY TIME! WITNESS ME!"

I had my doubts about it from the get-go. Yeah, I get that starting in the middle of the action is a narrative tool employed by a lot of other writers, but here it felt off. Not helped by the fact that we start over and get a recap in the first 5 episodes. It set the mood for the entire show.

I AM FREED OF THE SHACKLES OF VICTORY GUNDAM! What a shitty way to cap off the Universal Century. No wonder they started doing alternate settings. I will write some kind of review in the morning because I AM NOT WASTING THE REST OF THE DAY ON THIS, GOOD NIGHT!

OH MY GOD, E&H are doing a decent job on the Magic Knight Rayearth. They even used the old OP during the credits. Only real gripe I have is the bloom being too strong in some scenes. PLEASE LET THIS BE AN AMAZING REMAKE!

Not even halfway through episode one of Kanata kara/From Far Away and it's already looking leagues better than Sora wa Akai Kawa no Hotori/Red River. Tatsunoko is doing such a piss poor job that it's make Studio DEEN look like UFOtable, and it's still not what Kanata kara deserves.

Even the Student Council Has Its Holes! Episode 1 I was prepared for Ecchi standard fare and got hit with potentially the best comedy of this year. I'm loving all the chararcters so far. Except Arisu. She's terrifying. She gave Tan bottom surgery twice. *shudders*

Between a TTRPG I'm in, and a couple of back to back watch alongs, I am very quickly realizing that I can't really do the reaction threads the way I want them. Sooo.... I'll just go over the parts that realy stuck with me. False Memory! Reaction thread! Episode 1 to 3! SPOILERS AHEAD!

Infinite hallways? Oh, I am thinking it, and I an close to saying what this reminds me of. And considering that the people who made this have been working on anime for years, this might not be a coincidence! Also, good way to establish just how fucky the damned BUGs are.

Episode 2 starts with two ways of expo dumping. One that I dislike, and one that I didn't know I wanted. First one happens over a radio, and it's really hard to make out due to the goobers fighting. Second one is the writers pulling a fast one by using Bai Zhong explaining BUGs to us...

Also, I have to throw some shade at "To Be Hero X". I really dislike how "clean" the characters look in that show. All of them struggle with something in their lives, but they all look pristine at the end of the day. Their struggles leave no mark: no blemishes, no disheveled hair, no bags under...

their eyes! They are all picture-perfect no matter what. Chao Guan looks like hammered dogshit the second we meet him. Little Boar from Nobody gets progressively more beat up as the movie goes on. It makes me concerned for them! I get attached and start rooting for them to overcome their hardships!

The bit about the soda that tastes like burnt straw stuck with me longer than it should have. "Somehow, it tastes like memories." Probably because I instantly associated it with one of the sadder memories I have.

Loving the dynamic between Bae Zhong and Fang Tang. Also, love the fact that they IMMEDIATELY threw Chao Guan to the wolves and sent him out on a job! I love me a frantic pace.
