You clearly know more about this than I do. Someone at ANN theorized that the story might be based on a Japanese fable and maybe Tsukasa is actually a Goddess or something like that.

Well, even in the first episode, they mention the Kaguya-hime story. The manga hasn't given us much on the plot, but it did throw in a plot twist.

I had feared that my favorite fansub outfit, BakedFish, had gone out of business after it abruptly stopped releasing them around a month ago. But it is back with a vengeance, as a flood of new fansubs of both the first episodes of the Fall season and the missing ones from the Summer appeared yesterday. Whereas i had taken to largely rewatching old series during the meager Summer, all of a sudden I'm drowning in fresh anime.

While I watched the first episode of around 34 different shows from the bumper crop Spring season, I count only 14 in this Summer season. I still haven't watched episode one of two of them (and more might still show up), but as of yet not one Summer show has struck me as extraordinary. In contrast, the first episode of 5 or 6 Spring series seemed especially neat. Well, there were so many interesting shows during the Spring that I still haven't watched some of them.

The GXP novels from Kajishima-sensei is where it became official. And that's why the "Dual!" characters (or rather their technical reincarnations) show up in Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-ohki OVA 5.

It is getting harder and harder for me to reach the Mikomi website. It used to be that typing 'anime mikomi' was more than enough to be sent right here by Bing, now those words bring up a list of about every option except this website.

I guess the basic problem is that my computer decided to make Bing my default search engine even though I never requested it--I guess me just using it once was enough to convince the computer that I wanted it all of the time.

Most sites like ANN and MAL have the two seasons as separate entries for their title listings since they were ran on separate seasons. So I'd say keep them separate. Highly doubt I'm watching the second one as well. My interest in the series waned after its first season.

Finally finished with the initial reviews of new Winter 2023 series! Last season I watched only five series to completion, but this season it could easily be a dozen or more.

Forget what I just said. While there were lots of new shows in the Winter season, they turned out to be distinctly disappointing. At one point I had thought it would be weeks into the Spring season before I finished watching them all, but in the end only six seemed worth following to the end. There were no 'stars' like Akiba Maid Wars last season, IMO.

Thanks. I have never fully understood what it is about anime that I like, but other than some PBS stuff and sports it is about the only TV I watch.

Surprised to see that Evangelion is tagged cyberpunk and Roujin Z -isn't-. (I finally got around to watching Cyberpunk Edgerunners and was somehow more reminded of Roujin Z than other more mainstream titles.) (Genres are hard to agree on, probably cyberpunk more than most -- Blue Sub 6 surprises me by its presence on the Cyberpunk tag as well, though honestly I barely remember beyond the early CG, and it being released one episode at a time.)

Not sure I'd consider those particular titles cyberpunk as both took place in near-future settings. Cyberpunk is more associated with significant technological advancements and societal decay within a future dystopian world.

It took me more than half of the Summer season just to watch the first episode of (almost) every show, but now I'm rapidly catching up since only three struck me as definitely worth watching: Mushoku Tensei II, Helck, and Zom 100.

Since we had two pages for the same show (Frieren) I converted yours to a page for another show, S-Rank Musume, since mine had a preliminary review. But I neglected to move the Japanese website address to the remaining page. Oops...

From what Bella explained in her emails to me a few weeks ago on the issue, it looked like the server was going down every other day and then rebooting itself overnight. But appears all is resolved for now.

As I get older, I find I don't want to write as much, to say nothing of lack of time. And most folks these days want video reviews.
