>>285600876is everything a mushi to you
the swamp girl mushi episode is my favorite
>>285601888mine is the one where the woman gives birth to mushi children
>>285601981That's my favorite episode as well, pic related is runner up.
>>285601888Cocoon episode is mine.

>>285601737"A man who only looks at mushi, will only see mushi." - Confucious
>>285602431"It's mushi all the way down" - turtles
>>285601888My favorite is the one where the guy told prophecies
>>285600876Well, was he ever wrong?
>>285601888Top 5 for sure. I like the one with the string from the sky a lot.
>Series leads in with a story about a boy stuck in an isolated but comfy mountain forest house having a mutual, incestuous, crush on his lolibaba grandma (they will live together the rest of his life)People don't give the mangaka enougj credit for this based start to her series.>>285602345That's right up there for me.
You're a mushi, anon.
>>285600876>TN: Muschi is German for pussy.
>>285605199Did someone say pussy?
>>285601888https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmIeGkRe0CIThis one was my favorite.
>>285605199Still accurate.
>>285601888I like the one where the girl sings the rust away
>>285600876>I WALK TEN THOUSAND MILES, TEN THOUSAND MILES TO SEE YOU
>>285605991And the snow onee-san.So many good episodes.
Old Ginko still waiting for Tanyuu?
Mushishi Season 4 when?
>>285606642there was a s3?
>>285606642It adapted all the manga (except that 2021 chapter)
>>285606589Tanyuu got tired of waiting and slipped some Mushi in his tea when he was visiting one day. She had a fun night and wound up pregnant with twins, he stops by about 4 times per year to see his kids. She nags him gently for another 2.
>>285606984That sounds more like the Detroit Metal City record manager anon. You are confusing her roles.
>>285601888It's String from the Sky for me.>>285605014Same. Fuki is cute and wife material.
>>285601888The best episode is the sake brewer one where me made sake so good it made people trip balls
>>285606984>gently
>>285606642Is over man, there's nothing left. You need to let it go.
>>285601888For me, it's the kid who attracts thunder. That whole episode and the relationship between him and his mother, heavy stuff.
For me it's this.https://youtu.be/ZlbxNeOmjEEBtw what was that big white worm about ? Anybody remembers? He gave him the ability to see mushi?
I need mushi in my life
I think we were so damn lucky to get that adaption, the team that did it were dead set on making it right and translating the atmosphere and feel of it properly. I have never seen a better executed adaptation of manga.

>>285608851It was... mushi
>>285601737Everything that's truly important in this world is mushi

mushi
Mushi actually exist irl, and they cause phenomena such as acne, sublimation, acute schizophrenia, weird noises in the attic, and gayness
>>285615185No anon, you can't just blame all your problems on the fictional spirit creatures.
>>285615230you seem infected with mushi, anon...
>>285615185>weird noises in the atticOh that explains the moaning
>>285615185What the hell are you going on about? Don't project your schizoid delusions onto the world. There's no such thing as mushi.
>>285615367mushi tentacles typed this post
>>285615367Hi anon, lovely weather isn't?
>>285615185don't forget tinnitus
>>285615185Mushi are all fiercely homophobic, you little excuse won't wash here.
>>285615973>inexperienced Mushishi doesn't know about お尻弱点 mushi
>>285615936How do I get rid of this mushi?
>>285615973Nonsense, some mushi are homophobic, racist even, but that's not a general rule. U must be taking them for djiins o algo
>>285615936I could go on forever, but yeah, tinnitus, also hiccups, flash floods, ants' death spirals, circle crops...
>>285616297>circle cropsThose still exist?

>>285601888for me, it's the Sea of Ink/Writings
>>285601888For me it's the time travel tunnel episode
I wish someone had copied Mushishi.
>>285609168Gotta give props to them, even bankrupt, they still went and adapted the whole damn thing.
>>285619320The mangaka made a new series that's very similar to Mushishi but it either was axed or she didn't want to do it anymore. It took place in modern Japan and the incidents were caused by natural energy flow iirc instead of mushi. The main character even looked like Ginko.
>>285619499It was nice but I didn't like how everything resolved with a happy ending unlike Mushishi, I thought the firefly nerd story would be the one to break the mold but nope
>>285619499>took place in modern Japaninferior
>>285619499No, it was just a short series for the tankobon.Her latest work's kinda like about mythical creatures, too bad no one's translating it since it was kind of interesting.
>>285619363Slut mushi
>>285619773>No, it was just a short series for the tankobon.What do you mean? The series certainly didn't seem like it had planned on ending so soon. I did see there was a new series. I'll have to check it out if the Japanese isn't too difficult.
>>285619842I mean that it was always meant to be short, But desu, it was probably just to keep her in the tankobon.
>>285615185That explains a lot of things...
>>285615185Mushi are to blame for my severe hemorrhoids
>>285619995It was probably a flow
>>285615185
I watched this so long ago I only remember a few episodes. I think I'm going to watch it again. Never quite found another anime that gave me the same feeling.
>>285620549there's a mushi that feeds in one of the side of pairs, doesnt matter the kind of object, pretty annoying
You can't just blame any slight problem to your body on mushi.
>>285621887Yeah, sometimes it's yokai.
>>285621483Don't binge watch it
>>285621887I bet mushi posted this
>>285622072Fuck you, you're a mushi!
I always loved the unnerving designs of the mountain lords in this manga.
>>285619267idk why their interaction was so sweet
>>285619310the fuck do you like about that one? it's just depressing!
>>285600876Wtf? I started my yearly rewatch last night and now I see this thread? Stop stalking me.

I gotta rewatch mushishi when the weather gets just right. It's been too long.
>>285625043The cause is a mushi. Here.
>>285600876this shit was so boring why did people like it so much?
>>285601888My favorite is one-night bridge, really enjoyed the tragedy at the end. My imouto's favorite according to an old tierlist image I saved is the sake banquet, but I remember her saying it was the field of fake fire.

>>285629712Technically not a lie.
>>285629765
>>285600876Is this series good? Should I give it a watch?
>>285629879Certified hood classic.Episodic, slow burn, supreme vibes and atmosphere with the naturally unnerving existential dread that sometimes settles when you watch a nature documentary.Able to filter a lot of people that will simply find it boring.
>>285629879One of the best, but very slow
>>285629879If you love the nature and outdoors it's an amazing anime.
>>285625429good post, I was waiting for this thx anon

>>285601888>every reply is a different episodeblessed thread
>>285615367>who made this post>
I need to rewatch it this winter, sat in front of my fire. Max comfy animu.
>>285600876Mushi can't possibly be the culprits in every investigation. That would be absurd.
>>285601888My favorite is the last episode of S1, with young Ginko and the mountain owner's son. Not so much at first, but it grew on me during rewatches.
>>285632636What does the banana mushi do?
>>285601888Eye parasite mushiDreams into reality pillow mushiRainbow mushi
>>285601888The swordsmith is the one for me. The ending scared the hell out of me.
>>285632867Think anon, think!covers your hands with mush
>>285619363can't blame this woman.Ginko is sex.
>>285632867Banan-Na-Onryo:It's based on the fact that every banana is genetically identical. It slowly turns the host into the person closest to them. It's a slippery slope, a dreadful mushi indeed."Pick not the bruised fruit; for the inside is already your own face"
>>285632944AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
>>285622311..truly terrifying..
Next anon is a mushi.
the mushi did nothing wrong...
>>285632944Hi there, Shinji!
I'm going to mushi
>>285633081>>285633096a-ha!
>>285633064Yes
>>285633906My hero
>>285601888I really liked the tree that foretold its own death by growing red flowers.
What about a sex mushi?
Need Ginko holding up a card that saysCertified Mushi Fucker
>>285601888The second episode of S1 left a heavy impression on me back when I first watched it.I also love the Rainbow mushi one.I have more, but I think those two are my favorites.
>>285601888Fragrant DarknessMushishi feels like adaptation of real folklore and mythology.It probably is.But it distances itself from any specific mythology to be easy to recommend.Most similar in tone books I have read are written by Samuli Paulaharju.He travelled Finland and Lapland and collected stories, folklore and mythology.Mountain lord on every fell and in every lake.Sadly mostly untranslated.>>285626134To make time and setting feel ambiguous.>Mushi
>>285637813She certainly based a lot of it on existing Japanese folklore and country stories. I really like how animistic it is and the general message about all things of the earth having importance, there's also 'there's no right and wrong in naure only what can and can't be done' whilst the human characters still value their sense of morality.
>>285638535>only what can and can't be doneYes, nature has its own set of rules and you can only move whitin those limits. Kinda reminds me of Ichihara Yuuko's "hitsuzen".
>>285608284:(
>>285615185as a child I used to hear weird clapping noises coming from my parents bedroom during the night, do you think those were mushi too?
>>285601888These reply chain made me realize I need to rewatch the entire thing and pick a favorite episode too, they are all good.
>>285628949Nothing really compares sadly.>Ariafuck off.
>>285640156They just asked what to read next anon.
>>285628949xxxHolic
>>285636192That's just Ginko.
>>285641551MUSHI?
>>285641551
>>285642861>Picks up phone>Moshi Mushi?
>>285628949Not exactly the same genre, but YKK gives off similar feeling.
Are Mushi the reason we're so lonely, bros?
>>285628949X-files
>>285601888Off the top of my head, my favorites were the mountain guardian one, the rainbow one, the flashback, the island flowers, and the sleeping spring one. I could go on but that doesn't really make it a favorites list anymore.
>>285643907no. we killed the mushi, and they left us lonely.
>>285628521
>>285642861
>mushi goes ahead and murders an entire village in horrifying ways>"Yep, it is just mushi things"
>>285644573will any man who attempts to lay with them end up a shriveled husk? yes. and would I do it? absolutely.
>>285645195
>>285646341I fucking love that image, it's perfect
>>285646004>Ginko comes to town>"that shit is mushi, do not do (thing) or (other thing) will happen">villagers do (thing)>I told you about mushi bro
>>285630794https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1o84y-5-cO0Time to give it a listen again. On loop.
>>285646823This is literally me
>>285644573Nice
>>285630794it is a really damn good song
>>285600876Not gonna lie, I heard a loud:>"YYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH"In my mind when I read this.
>>285646482
Do you think this thread will convince some clueless zoomer to watch Mushishi for the first time?Will /a/ get "this was overrated" shitposts because zoomers can't into episodic series, less so if they are slow paced? Can't wait to experience that.
>>285648854I'd rather this show be rarely discussed than have threads full of ragebait like every fucking thing these days.
>>285601888For me it's Journey to the Field of Fire
I love the kids in Mushishi. They're drawn very cute and voiced by actual kids so they sound adorable. Which is why it's always gut wrenching whenever anything bad happens to them. This episode in particular was especially hard to watch.
Nice thread. I'd like to stay for three days.
>>285605041nothing about their relationship is presented as incestuous though?
>>285626134There's other bits and pieces around the place that suggest limited foreign influence, I assume Gingko just stands out fashion-wise because he mostly travels around the bumfuck nowhere countryside since that's usually where all the mushi are. So you nearly never see other people who might wear more modern clothing.
>>285648682Not as crusty as the original, but I appreciate the effort.
I'm just gonna put this egg hereI hope nothing bad happens to it.
>>285642861I feel like I saw this 15 years ago.>>285643907No, that's because I'm a loser fsggit!
>>285649574This is probably the nicest Mushi thread since S2 ended, and I don't even want to look up how long ago that was.
>>285650756They were blushing at eachother and Ginko did the "Hmmm~" face. This is anime and manga, fags like us and otaku know what's implied.
>>285644573thanks magic mushi man ill definitely wont go looking for these mushi
>>285636507He's so cool.
>>285619363Show those bitches mushi. Bitches love mushi.
I always remember the rainbow episode whenever it rains irl. The dad reminded me of my own life-destroying compulsions
>>285648682Kek saved
>>285650692young lady, i believe there may be a mushi in your mortorrad. tell me, does it ever seem to you as if it speaks to you?
>>285653082Uh anon, it's been a few hours and now the egg looks like this.
What mushi is this?
>>285644399>tfw no more Mushis
>>285656547Don't worry, I've been keeping an eye on it and it looks fine.
>>285657216Xenomushi
>>285657109>tfw more Mushi
>>285657216Oh no
>>285657032That octi is lookin' pretty moe.
>>285658031Mushi in the Shell
>>285658031
>>285629879Yep.
>>285658220You know the stuff
>>285632714They aren't, remember this guy? The episode featured Mushi but they had nothing to do with the story of the episode.
>>285608284There actually is, I think there's like 3 one shot chapters after that were made after the anime one from the author and the others by other mangaka as tribute. Or something like that.They could easily do an OVA covering those, but yeah not much incentive to do so.
She's so cool
>>285608284
>>285624554Exactly, is the a tragedy done well.
AMV https://streamable.com/klock8
>>285629879The serie is great, probably one of the best of its genre, but, and is a big but, you like this type of slow, instropective and calm stories.
>>285619499I feel that for that serie, the intention was to make it a more lighthearted version of mushishi, since Mushishi could be quite tragic and even boderline horror at times, so personally I did not dislike that, it was different but enjoyable.
>>285658811Did you make this? pretty good anon.
>>285617489https://youtu.be/8Um45OMHuhE?si=mlIzt-zkeGTvmQS4

>>285662385I think it's season 1 only, but yeah.
>>285662385No he meant you can download a mushi right on to your pc.
>>285632636>>285633220Picking up the gel-mushi-banana is ill advised, leads to very poor circumstances.
I love how ubiquitous the Mushi are and that they can appear to be everything and everything. it reminds me of how Stands work in Jojo

>>285662968humanity wouldn't stand a chance
>>285662409I often wonder what modern mushi would look like. digital mushi you only encounter when browsing old sites. fleeting mushi that play songs on the exposed metal bits of buildings under construction. mushi that live in the drainage holes and fluvial pipes. mushi that camouflage as asphalt markings.
>>285606399Am I the only one who fucking hates this OP? I can't stand the singer's faggot voice.

>>285663578>2.8k views>dub version on the same channel has 17k views
>>285629879There's a couple good episodes here and there but enjoy the constant feeling that you've already watched this episode already. It's as slow (i.e boring) as it is formulaic.If you don't like it by the time you hit the main characters background episode then you can stop watching as that's where it peaks and then it goes on as it always has.
>>285664596Dubbed anime is far more popular than subbed anime, anon. No matter how superior Japanese voice acting may be, you'll never convince normalfags that it's preferable to divide their attention between watching what's on screen and reading subtitles.
>>285629879Most of the episodes follow the structure of:>"the mushi did this">"ah yes, this is the mushi that does this">"here is what you need to do to avoid this happening again">guy does the thing that makes it happen again>"I warned you about the Mushi, man"And yet, it doesn't really get boring, because this formula works
>>285664596to be fair that's the sort of people who watch their anime on youtube.
>>285664303Acts cute to encourage headpats, thus spreading the parasite (headcanon).
>>285658436Not forgetting ...
>>285663472Isn't that just Neko ga Nishi Mukya?
>>285665512That's so evil
>>285666344kinda, but those are more "weird places" rather than "weird creatures" if you can understand what I mean.
>>285665884How good is this?
>>285667714A decent adaptation of a couple of episodes, and a "humorous" peasant OC. How much impact that has is a YMMV thing.

>>285622311Yoink
>>285622810It a perfect bittersweet love story. The girl who must stay in one place because of mushi and the boy who must forever wander because of mushi.

>>285600876"MUSHI could be here" he thought, "I've never been in this village before. There could be MUSHI anywhere." The cool wind felt good against his face. "I HATE MUSHI" he thought. The Sore Feet Song reverberated his entire medicine box, making it pulsate even as the 10銭 sake reverberated through his powerful thick veins and washed away his (merited) fear of strange apparitions after dark. "With your feet, you can go anywhere you want" he said to himself, out loud.
>>285601888The moment I saw the swamp girl for the first time I was like>"wtf she is so fucking cute I didn't expected that from mushishi"And then the episodes kept rolling and I was just bewildered how fucking cute and hot every single fucking girl were. The mothers, the sisters, the mushi girl, the lolis, the hags everyone of them was a fucking 10/10 despite having designs some simple and similar at first glance.This show has legit the best looking background characters out of any anime I've seen.

>>285672051>>285672321I think she probably did, after all the tone of the series I generally hopeful and that the world is wonderful but that there's tragedy and sadness in life too. Even if she didn't they would still continue thier wistful sort of romance.
>>285674198Such is the power of plain, wholesome inaka girls.
>>285664651Mushishi's first season has a good english dub at least.
>>285606589It's technically already canon
>>285619267>>285672051>>285677431It's funny because the mangaka ship the two MC in her next manga with the similar design.
>>285601888It was this episode for me, The light of the eyelidIt's the only piece of media that I've seen so far that has actually shown something like the migraines I get where I'm sensitive to lightThe mushi were really bad the day I watched it, so this episode fucked me up
>>285664651Mushishi is one of the few shows I think dub is the better experience because you shouldn't spend a single second moving your attention away from the visuals of the showhttps://youtu.be/eB-x1nplzJA?si=h8zAOZa6jqbWNyMG
>>285677633Unless you have a learning disability, reading subtitles should not detract any of your attention from the visuals in the slightest
>>285626134its probably like early xx century or late xix, nippon was like half feudal shithole even in 2nd ww
>>285677670The way shots are made and directed for any decent piece of kino are intended for your eyes to follow a certain path and focus on specific objects and expressions, that's the original visual experience that was intended by the creatorIf you had to debate sub vs dub in the first place, you already had to compromise the original experience, I just chose visual or over audio to prioritize
Guys I gonna watch it in Eng dub
I will give this anime another shot. I liked Mononoke but not Natsume.
This show is qualityslop. You only like it because its good.
Can Mushies be yuri
how eng dub compare to nip one?used to watch it with nip dub long time ago
>>285678577We don't use the D-word around here, mushi.

>>285678680Yes, so?
>>285678729manlets and dicklets
>>285678828These scenery and landscapes in the anime are probably among the best of any series ever.
>>285675318>Bishoujo Ginko

>>285600876He would eventually summon a "lung cancer" mushi
>>285679618It's just weed mushi
>>285601888I love the episode about stepping on shadows.On another note, i don't think there has ever been a daily of the manga on here. If i got on that, is there any reason to use the older fan translated version, over the 2025 Collector's Edition?
>>285679731>i don't think there has ever been a daily of the manga on hereThere was
>>285679731It's not a bad idea, but ultimately anyone interested in it should be encouraged to watch the anime. It's not a bad idea to also read it but anyone who doesn't also watch the anime is missing out on the best of the series. It's one of the only adaptions outright better than the source.The colour, sound, voice acting and animation all elevate it, and the art in the first two(?) volumes is shit; a problem the anime doesn't have.
>>285678577the english dub is really good but only season 1 ever got dubbed
>>285680158AH SHAME
>>285677881>The way voices are casted and directed for any decent piece of kino are intended for your ears to follow a certain path and focus on specific emotions and expressions, that's the original visual experience that was intended by the directorFixed for you. There's nothing "originally intended" by the director in the dub whatsoever. The anime director is only involved in the Japanese voice acting and the dub is an outsourced product tacked on afterward. There's nothing wrong with enjoying dubs but it's objectively further from the artistic vision than the original voice acting. This applies to all dubbed media, not just japanese.
>>285679731aw man, you missed it by a few years.
>>285680197>visual experienceOops should have changed that part. But my point still stands that what anon was saying about the original intended vision would apply to using the original voices.
>>285680213This must be the work of mushi
>>285679731>>285679898Around 2020/2021 if memory serve? I'm too lazy to check the catalog right now
>>285679898>>285680213>>285680402Yep 2021, I totally missed it.Even more reason to give the 2025 version a shot. It has an all new translation and some coloured pages.I'll get on it and have it started by tomorrow
>>285675318>fag with generic schoolboy shirt, slacks and sneakers and a gay little sidekick petWon't even bother watching one episode
>>285680586Turns out that edition only has the first two volumes (10 chapters). Volume 3&4 will release in April.But since no-one dumped them, I might as well
>>285680586>>285680726I'll be on it if it happens
My favourite episodes are the ones that are 100% preventable instead of just pure misery for people who didn't do anything wrong.>This is the work of the "dick-to-foot"-mushi. It turns your dick into a foot if you are not careful. Luckily, I have medicine for you. All you have to do is take it and not do this one specific thing that is easy to avoid and doesn't really affect your life if you stop doing it.>2 years later Ginko returns and sees three footprints in front of the door
>>285680692Read my mind. I thought "maybe this is like mushshi" but then it's some yokai watch shit.
>>285680878>be me>35 year old jap peasant>dick finally growing huge>itsmytime>hear knock on paper door>it's some one eyed white haired queer>says I need to take this medicine before my dick grows too long>he sounds jealous>tell him ok to get him to fuck off
>>285680878>>285681007Sounds exactly how it would go
does this show change much after the first 5 episodes?tried to watch it twice but tend to sort of drop off around that mark. i don't close out of the episode or anything; just don't start the next one.it's not even that i dislike slow shows... cause i remember /a/ sperging about how slow & boring Steins;Gate was "that nothing happens until episode X", etc, and i didn't mind that pace at all, to the point it didn't even occur to me.
>>285681007>throw medicine away>heh, time for a wank while thinking about the village elder's daughter>wait, is my hand getting smaller, or->dick suddenly inflates by 5000%>destroys flimsy paper house>crushes entire village, elder is PISSED OFF>everyone's either crying or screaming at me while they prod at my dick with pitchforks>elder's daughter calls me "anta baka" and storms off>voice in the distance: "I fuckin' TOLD YOU about Mushi, bro"
>>285681142It's tonally consistent which is why it should be enjoyed in small doses, like once a week.
>>285681220>like once a week.ah. maybe that's it then.i tend to finish 1 season/sitting for show s that have finished airing.
>>285619363>getting cockblocked by her parentsLet the girl bang the hot and mysterious traveler already.
>>285681142Don't binge watch it
>>285679898Good times, really enjoyable daily, and then we moved to the cat manga
>>285681811sketchbook?
>>285681142Mushishi is far better than S;G, you just have to appreciate the really slow burn.
>>285679731>i don't think there has ever been a daily of the manga on hereThose were some good times.
>>285682126I thought Steins;gate was boring as fuck but I enjoyed Mushishi from beginning to end. Maybe mentality has something to do with it.
>>285681275binge watching makes most stuff a worse experience unless its modern content made with that in mind.
>>285682777Good times
>>285682126>>285683125I liked both, but they were wholly different types of "slow". S;G I watched over the course of maybe 3 or 4 nights and basically watched the entire second half in one sitting. Mushishi I watched over the course of about half a year just watching an episode when I felt like it. It basically never made me feel like wanting to watch another episode (maybe occasionally watching 2 in a row) but never made me think "I don't want to watch this anymore". I'd just get the itch for a mushishi episode every now and then and watch some. On the other hand the often brought up counterpart to mushishi, natsume yuujinchou, I watched all of it over a week or two (what was available at the time at least). My point anyways, S;G is slow at the start in a "building up" way that mushishi isn't, like >>285681220 said it's very tonally consistent, it's a kind of slow that's not going anywhere so it doesn't hook you into binging it nor does it (at least for anyone that's not some sort of shounenspic) make you bored.
>>285679358>not a single bad looking girlWere feodal nips this hot?
>>285600876Honestly scarier than most horror anime
>>285683846Even the granny?
>>285683907yjk the grannies were 10/10 during their youth.
>>285680878Kek, finely aged pasta
>>285683392i liked the second half of S;G at first but the time travel setup looks worse and more contrived the longer you think about it.
>>285601888There's one where an old couple kept going into a hole just to realive their past days. The mushi was a flower IIRC. Loved that episode.
>>285626134Fuck, I just realized this. How did I missed it. Must be the work of a mushi. But seriously, I literally just realized Ginko is wearing quite a western-looking attire compared to everyone else. kek
>>285684264Primer did time travel so much better it's insane
Too much of sad and bad endings vs. good endings.
>>285685338Wouldn't be so bad if they just listened to Ginko.
>>285683392I read the first few volumes in a binge of sorts. It really hooked me for a time.
>>285680726Any word on when the other volumes are coming out?
>>285687029Book 3 is announced for August.Seems like they release in 4-5 month increments
>>285679294when the key animator/designer did parody
>>285682777Man, there was a Shoulder on a coffin Kuro daily that was fantastic, I had read the manga before but TL stopped halfway and never finish it once it got pick up again, so the daily was a great reason to reread what I have read already and then finish it.
>>285687976>the mushi kid armyKEK
>>285687976This is so beautiful...
>>285681142The recommended dose by experts is one episode a night before going to bed.
>>285682777>>285683375even in your mushi... HI FU MI!
>>285601888Sunrise serpent not even close I think.Can't get over the mom willingly forgetting her memories after learning the truth and her son having to cope with that while still taking care of her. Best mushishi eps for me are the bittersweet ones where mushis aren't really threat and rather allow to explore the nature of human soul. Same goes with the flower giving you a one day lifespan.
>>285690142Real unclean mushi thoughs right now.
The posts here are really like mushi posts: basic, primordial short thoughts expressed using simple words.
>>285692086>Post here are really like mushiNobody tell him
>>285692086I wouldn't worry about it.
>>285684264time travel as a concept hasn't aged well I think. I prefer Rezero over Steins gate anyways, as flawed as that show is.
>>285685338There's no such thing as good or bad in nature. When a wolf kills a deer it's not good or bad, it's just the cycle of life. When a mushi kills a human you think it's bad because humans think they're beyond nature. But they're not.
>>285692086What are you talking about anon
I don't remember if it was ever explained, but how does the doctor guy contact ginko when he needs him?
>>285687375So what's this new addition, an improved translation? Extras? Better quality printing/binding? I have the Eng tanks from the 00s/early 10s and, like most manga, the paper is shitty.
>>285693116Anon was talking about the human experience of sadness. But what you've described is how Ginko comes to see the world, and is a core element of the series. Bless it.
>>285693266They put messages in special cocoons that teleport the letters.

>>285693673What is it about mushi that makes girls extra sex?
>>285697293Mushi girls are like yokai girls, they're just on another level (especially when they're lolibabas). Human females can't compete.
There are no mushi that result in arousal in any episode, in fact there are no sex-related mushi at all. This show is pure. It's not about sex.
>>285690841>Allow to explore the nature of human soul.Isn't that almost the entire series?
>>285697569Morning wood mushi is harmless.

>>285675318Natsume is a bit frustrating with the long term plot points that always get teased but never properly develop.
>>285681383>>285683185>>285622027I did binge it and it was great. Aside from 1 exception, I have never had a bad experience binging.
Be careful anons. There's a mushi in this thread that makes you want to rewatch mushishi.
I got medicine to stop wanting to rewatch Mushishi.I tried it for a while, but then I saw this thread and forgot to take it.Now I'm stuck thinking about the beauty and ennui of life! Oh no!
That's it, I'm rewatching Mushishi right now

I loved the episode where they showed the mushi postal service, putting letters into those weird eggs. Man I need to rewatch this show.
>>285705356>ctrl f 'mushi'>206 matchesit was fairly weak actually.
>>285705518You can help by expanding it
>>285705518I blame mushi
>>285705356>exhales smokeThis is the thread prolonging mushi.
>>285704604I won't lie, Mushishi was the series that pushed me over the weeaboo line in regards to my infatuation with Japanese inaka landscape/settlements.
I imagine living in mushi world feels like this, just don't do anything or you will DIE
I bloody love this show, and the Manga as well. I can never figure out if this or Space Dandy is my number 1
>>285706516But Space Dandy is shit.
>>285702449As long as you enjoyed it. I just think Mushishi is more enjoyable when you take time between episodes so I wonder if people who find it boring were off put by the episodic nature due to binge watching.
>>285706545How can you say something so incredibly wrong, anon?
>>285706448>be japanese peasant >half your grain harvest was taken in taxes by the local warlord>other half stolen by brigands>decide to dam a brook for another rice paddy further up the mountain>the local mushi doesn't like that>mountain blows upsuch is life in mushi japan

I've been trying different batch image converters, output sizes and resample settings to not reduce the quality too much.Now the Bosnian spyware i installed (and that converted several test batches successfully) is completely shitting the bed, turning 50 images into a single corrupted 17byte file. Nothing works anymore. I've been at it for over 2 hours holy shit i am about to have an aneurismI am genuinely sorry bros, i will figure it all out and start the daily, but probably not today

>>285707168So, is trying to eliminate all mushi from inhabited areas a good solution?Ginko would not support that, and maybe he is right.Thoughtless war with nature can backfire.
What do you lot make of the recent hardcover deluxe editions that came out lately? It's a very nice looking book and I can't wait to have the whole set.
>>285709604I haven't actually read mine yet since I've got a long reading list right now, but I've had a flick through and I like the quality and feel. The only thing that worries me is the translation, nothing to say it's bad just yet, but in the original translation there's a nice explanation of why keeping honorifics is important and I haven't seen that in the new one. I'm not sure why they needed a new translation to be honest, but I guess that's what's often done when you make a special edition.
>>285709809I have the old paperbacks, but I haven't read it in like 15 years or even really looked at much since then. I'd love to own the anime in the best quality I could, dual audio and Eng sub too if that as possible. I have it archived, obviously, but I'd probably splash out to have it complete on BD.

In the morning when you wake up go to the ocean and stand on a high cliff. Make sure to keep your finger in your asshole the entire time. Dangle your cock off the cliff like a giant lure and when you feel a nibble pull your finger out and smell it. If it smells like shit you know it worked. Your cock should shrivel up to a fraction of it's size by nightfall. Likely smaller than it was to begin with.
