>A revolution sparked by nuclear war, natural disaster, and misrule leads to the collapse of Japanese society. The country splits into three nations vying for hegemony, and the Sangoku era begins. Aoteru Misumi, a former agricultural officer, vows to reunify Japan. He rises through the ranks with only his knowledge and eloquence. Witness the legend of the man later hailed as a genius strategist.Political anime of the season in 1 hour.
>>287260890https://youtu.be/PvjwzkcaT2Y>Studio KafkaI don't think I watched anything from them but it does look good
It's up
Read the manga ever since the annnouncement. Time to see it animated.
I think I will like this guy
>>287260890Reminds me of Sanctuary a bit.
Info on the mangaka. this is his second manga, first one started in 2020. Used to be a assistant for the mangaka of I Am a Hero, Under Ninja.
https://x.com/i/status/2040768003751453147Cool op
but what is his tax policy
>>287260890>Political animeIs this some thinly-veiled Japanese right-wing story?
>This was the beginning exposition in the mangaHuge improvement imo. Manages to set the tone very well.
>>287262187Yeah it looks like they're really elevating the manga
I clapped.
This fucking moth again
I feel like there is some sort of visual metaphor that I'm too illiterate to get.
>>287262511You need to be Japanese enough to get their political references.
Is this a pro-war anime?
Cant find it on any piracy sites
Very topical
>>287262668It's on nyaa
Oh, it's in Prime jail. Get ready for no subs and nobody watching it.
>>287262260I love the stylistic choices they are going for. They are using it to showcase sequences that weren't in the manga or expand on those that exist, like Aoteru dashing to the farmers or Saki stopping the tax collector.Don't know how far they can continue like this but I do hope they keep this quality to the end.
>>287262737
>>287262668Such is the life of a retarded streamfag lol
beautiful
>>287262706Nyaa does not work 90% of the time here
Oh no!Denki died!
She's gonna die this episode I know it.
>>287262896It's kind of obvious if you notice that she barely exists in the opening.
I love my Seii queen till death but Saki is definitely the best girl.
>defeating the evil people in power with FACTS and LOGIC and QUOTING SUN TZUThe art style is kind of cool but I dunno.
Nice first episode. Just need to see if nips pick it up for all that sweet sweet porn of the male lead
How did this even happen when she was sleeping beside him?
he's so hot and the fact he smokes will probably make for some good fanart
First episode was kind of a powerpoint but the artstyle and writing are great so I'll forgive it
>>287263144>kind of a powerpointit's not a powerpoint anon. It's rigged models if you want to complain about stiffness. there is actually a decent amount of animation.
>>287260890read the manga since it was scanlated by the same group as amateur vigilante. is there enough material for a full season or is the scan really behind?>>287262170>Used to be a assistant for the mangaka of I Am a Hero, Under Ninja.makes sense, it gives me the same vibes but without the comedy
>>287263119She woke up before him.

Ready for mobbing 10/10 MC
>>287263397
>>287262736Prime had subs for GQuuuuuuX, Sanda and Darwin Incident

Pretty good, I'll definitely keep watching.

>>287263245That was brutal, so they chopped her up into pieces
Almost missed out on this, but this was a fun first episode. Good thing I caught sight of the bob guy.
>>287260890Predictive programming?
great first episode definitely watching the rest
For a second I thought it said Hideo Kojima.
>>287266767>A post apocalyptic story about uniting a fractured JapanFirst strand type anime
The almost comedic way it handles these imperial politics reminds me quite a bit of Hyouge Mono
>>287262170>Used to be a assistant for the mangaka of I Am a Hero, Under Ninja.That explains so much.It's a shame Under Ninja couldn't get an adaptation this good.
What did that dumb bitch expect would happen?I'm glad she got killed after pulling that girlboss moment.
wow, great artstylebeen a while since we got something so unique
>>287263189is this from the anime?
>>287268684yes
Finally, a decent anime with actual artistic direction, after years
this mighty scratch my postapoc itch while I'm waiting for more Homesick Taro chapters
>>287260890People really don't understand that this adaptation is a miracle, Seinen Manga rarely get adaptions and when they do is always average to bad, is extremely rare for Seinen manga to get this level of quality. This adaption is EXTREMELY GOOD. I hope the quality stays up for all the run
>>287268978>this adaptation is a miraclelol>Seinen Manga rarely get adaptionsthere's usually 1 or 2 a season at least>I hope the quality stays up for all the runnigga its the first episode, anime always front loads the quality
>>287263245>>287265235Just some blood on the snow, a description of what they did and her head. Then the way he placed her head and laid out her wedding dress. That was rough without witnessing the actual act, they did a good job with this part especially.
>>287269561The fuck happened with the rest of her body anyway?
>>287260890>Chinese Three Kingdoms in post-apocalyptic JapanThis is literally Taiyo no Mokushiroku with less politics (and less direct Three Kingdoms references).Not that I complain, I wish they had that whole manga adapted (or at least translated).>>287268978Yeah, I'm also surprised Amazon would invest so much in such a series.
>>287262187>>287262689>indiawyell...
Pretty eyes
>>287269850>Taiyo no MokushirokuNow I'm sad we still need translations and the sequel too. Pic related too for more 3 kingdoms series
Pretty lips
Why is it always like this...
Not really the SMT news I was expecting this year but hey at least I get something close to it. If people think I'm being schizo about it because I don't expect this general to read sub context nor even play SMT1 but the plot is pretty similar with the post apocolypse and reuniting japan.
>>287262689This makes no fucking sense. Realistically, only the chain of natural disasters would have any meaningful impact on leading to this potential outcome, everything else is just self contradictory geopolitics
I am a bit weary of this one, anons. Will this show have a proper story with some overarching plot, or is this one of those "redpilled" shows that will try to beat me over the head with some clunky social commentary and /pol/ adjacent things?
are mc and his wife twins?
>>287270411AKAMATSU THEMMMMMMMM AKAMATSU THEMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
no fucking way this is getting animatedthat's amazing! I love the manga and I'd been patiently waiting for more chapters to be translated. Dude, what the fuck, so many series I love are getting animated this year. Hell yeah!
>>287270411>or is this one of those "redpilled" shows that will try to beat me over the head with some clunky social commentary and /pol/ adjacent things?Why would that Matter? I don't care about muh left right politics. Good fun stories are fun.
I had no idea what to expect from this, but that was one of the strongest first episodes of the season.Not surprised to hear to mangaka was an assistant to the Under Ninja guy. The art style is pretty similar, but it also shares some of the same borderline absurdist black comedy and a similar balancing act between depicting cruel faction politics matter-of-factly and humanizing both the perpetrators and the victims.Picked the FUCK up.
>>287270648>Good fun stories are fun.That's exactly what I'm asking for here. However, heavy-handed political commentary from someone who isn’t particularly qualified to speak on the subject doesn’t make for a very insightful or enjoyable read/watch. So which one is it going to be, fun or /pol/?
>>287270411Considering you don't know the difference between weary and wary, I would say you should probably steer clear of this.
>>287270852Just watch the episode is less than 30 minutes
>>287270774>The art style is pretty similarreally?
Loved the first episode, it was gorgeous but killing female characters to give their bf/husband a purpose is such a shitty trope.
>>287270852Who isn't qualified? Someone with a different opinion from you?Anyway this was the best first episode this season.
>joukyuu kokumin mentionedAll right, I'll watch it.
>>287270980>shitty trope.That doesn't exist. Tropes are neutral
He's supposed to be another "facts and logic" MC which would be fine but the problem is he isn't. They brutally killed a man in front of them for slightly offending that official but instead of telling his wife off he COMPLIMANTED her on fighting against the tax collector like he couldn't predict they would both be in danger. Like what where's his logic behind that? And it was hard to feel sorry for his wife after being the know all girlboss character who was obviously never before put into place. Dumbass wanted to instantly jump ten guys who just finished brutally killing a villager. Hopefully the other characters will be written more realistically.
Holy shit, one of the best episode from other the first one.
>>287271454I'm so glad you are not a writer
I'm surprised an anime like this can come out in current year
>>287260890Is this gay? These guys look kinda gay
>>287261562>vertical left to rightwtf
>Underaged smokingBeautiful, that one's always a genuinely good sign for me.
>>287271661of coursefew things are as gay as heterosexual marriage
>>287260890Went into this blind because the premise sounded interesting, this manga coming out in 2021 makes sense as to why the author would be blackpilled like thisReally great start, easily the best first episode of this season that I watched so far alongside Snowball Earth
>>287271896>this manga coming out in 2021 makes sense as to why the author would be blackpilled like thisThis is an extremely old trope Pic related is from 2002
>>287272068>trope
>>287272068I mean that the government after Abe's death made a story like this relevant again, but then again it might be coincidental some manga are though up on the spot immediately after a previous work ends
>>287272068Wasn't the bronze age collapse a few millennia ago? Shit is old.
>>287270411>>287270852I hope it goes heavy into Japanese nationalism specifically to piss you off
Did they really finally make a " fuck the reiwa era " anime?
The word got fucked over so hard they reverted to ye old times and even started dressing and behaving just like back then?Interdasting.
>>287272355Is this the first one to get adapted? I could have sworn there was another recent manga with this sentiment
>>287260890is this an anime original?
>>287272527 no
>>287272549ah good, premise sounds interessting but i rather read manga than watch anime
What was he trying to say when quoting art of war at the end there. God I'm retarded.
>>287272682fatty asked why did he come to him
>ask if a show has a proper story with an actual plot>receive nonsensical knee jerk repliesHonestly, I don’t even understand what ticked all of you off. It’s like the mere notion of a show having a coherent story, instead of being an amalgamation of half-formed thoughts about the current political climate, is somehow insulting to you.In any case, I actually watched the episode, and it turned out to be quite disappointing. It was just a series of unfortunate events involving paper-thin characters that neither set anything up nor amounted to anything. And thanks to the time skip, we still don’t know jack about our protagonist. This episode may as well have been scrolling text before the opening.>random famous quoted because the author himself has nothing insightful to say
>infodumps shit nobody cares about to nitpickHe's literally me.
>>287272953She was right though, it was cute
>>287272187Yes, is a centuries old Trope. Remember the French revolution? And them Napoleon happen
>>287272924Good, see you next week
I really like the art style, curious to see where it goes.
Why the hell are anime pseudfags so freaking cringy? I can't tell if this is a NA/EU/3rdWorld thing.
>TROPES TROPES TROPES TROPES TROPESWhy the fuck do you faggots even watch or consume any media at all if you freak the fuck out when they do ANYTHING?Anyways I went into this blind, really fucking good first episode. Loved the art style but I feel like the directing elevated it like crazy. Love a farming autist+philosopher autist protagonist. I've got high hopes for this.
>>287261971absolute edgekino. picked the fuck up. first few minutes made me think it was gonna be too family friendly in depicting a violent wartime society but this gives some hope.>>287262796unrealistically huge tits for a warring kingdoms period
>>287270411>or is this one of those "redpilled" shows that will try to beat me over the head with some clunky social commentary and /pol/ adjacent things?family based clan politics leads to corruption and capable people should gain power and influence through merit and achievements to the betterment of all. so yes its inherently right wing, commies will hate it
>>287270923nta, but yes once i knew, it clicked. the character designs/faces have a similarity
>>287260890This was good, maybe I should watch Mahoutsukai no Yome, their other show
>>287273590Yeah man I'm sure commies will hate a story about farmer philosopher fighting against warlordism.
>>287272992
>>287270852dumb cunt you're not doing anything valuable with the time anyway since you're here, so just watch the episode or fuck off from the thread instead of going /pol/
Good 1st episode, too early to say whether the series will be good but here's hoping.
>>287273661yes. food is western decadence and meritocracy is incongruous to communism
Is every anime with a political focus doomed for the rest of time to have its thread devolve into "LEFTISTS WILL HATE THIS!!!" and "CHUDS WILL HATE THIS!!!" ad infinitum for the rest of eternity?
>>287273772>with a political focusyes.
>>287273691>more nonsensical us vs them postingI already watched the episode and even posted my thought on it itt, and yet here you are still madposting about me. Given how you all supposedly liked the episode, shouldn’t you be discussing it? Because so far, I’ve been the topic of your discussion instead. And by the way, something being political doesn’t mean it’s just American red-versus-blue politics.
>>287273415Whenever I see someone use the word "trope" it usually means they're a retarded ESL who does not actually understand what a trope is.The one and only upside of age verification is that it will rid the English-speaking net of these parasites by forcing them all to pony up for residential VPNs in order to attempt to interact with us.
>>287273772I'm sure things will calm down over time and people will be more reasonable.
>>287273863>Because so far, I’ve been the topic of your discussion instead.Wow maybe you should go kill yourself or post somewhere else you shitposting mongoloid.
>>287273643that one turns to shit fast so i dropped it, just as awarning. the beginning is great
I found it hard to take the bad guys seriously because of the Kansai dialect.
>>287273772Just the first episode threads, most of the time the shitposters go back as they lose interest in the show as things slow down and most of the focus becomes people talking.
>>287269850do someone even remember ikkitousen? i loved watching it, my favoirte adaptaion of the three kingdoms
the work reminds alot to shigurui i dont know why lol
>>287273894What did you like about the episode? I didn't like the art style at first, but it kind of grew on me by the end, especially when they added some color in. Looked nice and soft. The story and characters are subpar so far, though. Hopefully, the show picks up by episode three. You did watch the episode, right? I’d like to hear your thoughts.
>>287274144I have no desire to encourage you to be in these threads.
>>287272682Basically when Lord Fat asks him how he felt when looking at him his quote from the art of war (6.1-3) boils down to>keep your cool and mess with your opponent's head so he loses his cool and screw upThe last quote he gives when asked how he feels right now is from Laozi, the Taoist guy, basically saying this is just the beginning.
>>287274144You don't want people who can actually share their thoughts on the show after watching it in your thread? What do you think of the antagonists so far? With how comically evil they were presented as, do you think that it might devalue the point that the show is trying to make a bit?
>>287274294Replied to myself there. Was mean for you, buddy >>287274158.
how are we going to watch this?I don't even see this on anichart
>>287274468Just download it from Nyaa like always newfag-kun.
>>287274468>how are we going to watch this?With one's eyes? Are you blind anon?
>>287274128Thank you for introducing me to this artist

Westernization of Japan and its consequences...
>>287274821What about islam style?
>>287274821Funny how that made him think the Japanese where religious instead of exactly like his wife (it's cute/it's tradition)
>>287274109It was actually a really cool show when it still had a 3K-inspired plot on top of the anime tiddies and pantyshots, but they completely dropped the ball after the second season.
>>287260890Surprised that this being made by the staff of Magus Bride the style is really differentGood first episode
>>287274951Unlike what poltards will tell you there are barely any muslims in Japan.
>>287261885I'm not that familiar with Amazon Prime japanese series but I'm surprised they allowed this show to release there with how anti-globhomo it is considering how KR Black Sun turned out there
>>287275010They allow Made in Abyss there, just like the Japanese branch of Disney+ for some reason the Japanese branch of Amazon is based, which sucks because every anime in these two platforms are pretty much doomed to fail since Japan avoids using themBlack Sun being that bad was because the director thought it would be funny rather than Amazon enforcing it on him
>>287274999and yet disproportionally cause problems, just the other week a kurd assaulted a politician in broad daylight and wasn't even arrested. muslims are also demanding cemeteries be created so they can be buried not cremated. give it 2 generations and tokyo will looks like london, paris or new york
>>287274962no he was saying its all irrational
>>287275181>and yet disproportionally cause problems,>just the other week a kurd assaulted a politician in broad daylight A Japanese man ventilated a Japanese politician in broad daylight.
>>287275217per capita aint a theory

>>287276195This website is pretty shit now so it's to be expected. Wait till like week three for decent discussions.

>>287276327fuck, still giving a chance
author name is Ikka Matsukiis ita woman name?
>lips mentioned More anime girls should have nice succulent lips.
Great episode, but that song at the end was completely unneeded.
>>287262896I mean, she exist to be a catapult for his husband, The border between acting retarded or be suicidal by purpose in a Japanese way to kickstart a change, its very thin in japanese stories.
>>287262896They did a great job foreshadowing it, but still humanized her enough to make me feel bad.>>287276777>The border between acting retarded or be suicidal by purpose in a Japanese way to kickstart a change, its very thin in japanese stories.It really is. It's almost like any large scale change requires a martyr.
>>287273772Yes and even anime WITHOUT a political focus like Witch Hat Atelier
>>287274511Yea he is great
>>287276868>like Witch Hat Atelierbait
>>287276974The author's politics do not reflect overtly in the story unlike this. Cope
>>287276993>overtly the entire manga is social issues. you're right its covert. frieren is unironically politics free besides scorpion and the frog, thats a far better example yet endlessly gets dragged around
had 0 expectations and the start kinda bored me but then it became great. kino even.
>>287276195>>287276222This thread has been pretty good, a little shitposting never hurt anyone. Don't want reddit hugbox tier discussions either
>>287260890Strong contender for AOTS. Also it's funny how even a (mostly) grayscale anime looks more vibrant than Orb.
>>287279430Yea, it's been mostly pretty mild by modern standards, more of a low background buzzing than a loud din.The real fun comes in the next 3-4 weeks when we get more into the meat of the story.
>>287260890>kill off best girl in episode 1I liked Saki ;_;
>>287273661I'm a communist and I liked the first episodenot for commie reasons per se but it's an entertaining story, communists often like reading about revolutions and historical change and stuff even if it's not the world socialist revolution
>>287273590>family based clan politics leads to corruption and capable people should gain power and influence through merit and achievementsisn't that just the bourgeois revolution against feudalism? Commies don't exactly hate Robespierre
Is there more to this than cigarette propaganda? I got as far as the OP and it seems like every character's pushing them
>>287281020Is reading the synopsis really that hard?
>>287281344The synopsis doesn't say anything about it being advertising for nicotine junkies.
>>287281373>ask if there's more to this>the sypnosis explains what else to the anime besides minors smokingI hate people with attention deficit
>>287281506>ask if the synopsis is a bait-and-switch>bro just uhhhh read the synopsisnicotine is rotting your brain
>>287279508Agree but I'm not hating on Orb, that show had its own style that completely worked in my opinion. The dark-dungeon-work-by-candlelight-in-secrecy direction was all completely intentional, and made the epiphany scenes that much more euphoric.
>>287281532You didn't ask that, the show is about a japanese post-apocalypse governed by a totalitarian westernized government that just so happens to have many characters smoking because it looks coolIs still your first time seeing an animated piece of media with a character that smokes?
>>287281532Kill yourself you stupid faggot.
>>287281597>addicted to sucking on burning leaves>cool>>287281610i'd say "you first" but i can tell you already are
meiji tobacco is a hygiene product
>>287281640Yeah smoke whenever it's drawn leads to cool effect, look at the gunshots in RED Living on the EdgeIt's why there's so many characters that smoke in anime since it's cool to draw, I guess this is just your first anime, you should leave the board until you're more familiar with the medium to not come off as a ADHD clown
what a shit show
>>287281983why?
>>287260890Wasn't expecting two anime with Kensho Ono voicing the protagonist and for both to be animated with so much finesseI still can't unhear Yuya, same shit happened when I watched Vento Aureo
>>287260890This, Dorohedoro, Yuusha ga Kuzu and Snowball Earth will be anime of the season for me, I can tell
>>287282043fugly, soundtrack, shit dialogue
This guy is basically Cao Zhen from Three Kingdoms but worse
>>287283183>soundtrackyou want your anime to not have music? sounds like a (you) problem
>>287283420we got music in the prologue part, it was awful and feels like western studio flavored awful.
>>287283455we got music through the whole episode, you're ousting yourself as a faggot
>>287270354It makes perfect sense. Its basically just the dark ages after the fall of Rome 2.0 but with America instead.
>>287277068Everyone who disagrees with me politically is evil, therefore whenever there is media of good guys beating evil guys and doing good things its clearly representing my political ideology
>>287270354>China, India, and the U.S. all gang up on Japan>none of them bother sticking around to control conquered territoryAnd here I was thinking that Kyoukai Senki had an overwrought backstory.
>>287284251I thought the same thing but I choose to interpret it as China, Japan ect ect get caught in a world war.
AOTS, maybe AOTY
>>287260890I'm usually not a fan of artsy direction in anime. Even mainstream shonens like JJK now are doing it and it's led to mixed results (Maki episode was awful, while Higurama and Sendai were great for example).This episode it worked really well. I loved it. Great premiere and I hope the rest of the anime remains great.
>>287284728I am a fan of artsy direction and this aint it.
>>287284749Really? I liked it. I also loved it's comedy elements too.
>>287284251For the invading powers the cost of occupying and rebuilding a radioactive, plague ridden and resource depleted archipelago is not worth it, also evey other nation is probably reeling from the global nuclear conflict too.

Holy shit i went to work, came back and we're still on /pol/ shit?have a cute misumi to refresh the thread. I'm sure you could egg him on to infodump at you for hours while you smile at him imagining those fat lips around a (your) dick
>>287288453>everything MUST be subtle and vague, there are NO other forms of storytelling, nothing can be comedically and bluntly cruel on purpose, the author MUST just be a bad writer!

>>287286385This show doesn't have that much /pol/tard seething just anti smoke seethingReincarnation no Kaben and Witch Hat Atelier are the ones that are getting several posts deleted over massive /pol/ meltdowns, it's just that in those cases Reincarnation no Kaben is a botched adaptation with Tokyo Ghoul RE levels of pacing and Witch Hat Atelier isn't really a political manga but also we're unsure if the adaptation will be good since it changed directors several times
>>287288575I confess that in a lot of shots I thoguth he was his cute wife
>>287273415Triggered.
>>287273772Nope, just pick something like Zipang. /pol/tards, board tourists and dumb baiters get filtered hard by it.
It was a good first episode, but the guy should have realised that once they let the tax collector go, they were done for. The smart thing to do would have been to kill him and get out of there as quickly as possible, heading for Osaka.
>>287273772First episodes are usually flooded with schizos but this anime is obscure so future threads should be normalKemono Jihen is the only obscure anime that retained schizos all the way through in /a/ that comes to mind
>>287289279>Nope, just pick something like ZipangMaybe in 10 years after the translations catch up
>>287263270Yeah scans are way behind, the manga is at chapter 49 now.
The wife killing herself for no reason instead of coming up with a plan was painful to watch unfold. I'm shocked she managed to live as long as she did with such poor instincts.
reminder the first episode of mars red was also good and then it fell off a cliff
>>287290509ill never forget. it was the single best episode of any anime in the past decade.
>>287290509The manga is still going strong, first 4 volumes are basically the prologue for the revolution
>>287290509LIES AND SLANDERMars Red was good throughout.
This guy seems like he's going to die so MC can be the top general
Mars red mentioned.
>>287273433>big tits only exist in certain erawtf?
moonreaders spoil me on how this developsdoes the mc actually get foiled or go massacre mode or does he just keep conveniently talk no jutsuing his way into winning every single time?
>>287290870i loved watching mars red
>>287290509>>287290555>>287290870>>287292332What about the Manga?
>>287292484never read it, but i love the armors that show up in the end of the anime https://youtu.be/yMYqhSyj4rU?si=39RpRRWSY8h05l-L
>>287290870Mah nig, the ending was kino
>>287292648what happened in the ending? i don't remember
It's not a /pol/ shitpost story like Charlie, it's modernized attempt ar Three kingdoms. It's mostly court drama about mc Kongmining around as advisor and solving stuff to conquer Japan with his superior knowledge of agriculture and basic logic.We even have Lelouch in the cast.
>kills your feminist wife for rebelling against the patriarchyOof
>>287292704
In another world
>>287291810Just read the viet scans on mangadex. You can use google lens to translate.
>>287291039Big Boss and Leouch gonna carry the show.
>>287294919no kids? what's the point?
Taira clan being the evil one again.
>>287290555Absofuckinglutely, a literal masterpiece of cinema in only 23 minutesI still go back and rewatch it every now and then>>287294158Fuck yeah it's mah boy KongmingFeels like he's the most popular Three Kingdoms character in Japan
>>287290555JOKANAAN
That was a great first episode. The direction was really cool, a lot of interesting shots/cuts. The animation was also impressive for how detailed some of the linework was. I thought the protagonist and his wife were going to have a Napoleon/Josephine relationship but that was obviously cut short. I guess this will just be a revenge story of sorts, nothing wrong with that. I'm not sure how believable the overall premise is, but the idea of a total psychopath coming to power by backstabbing people, and then ruling with violence and intimidation, is at least realistic. The only think I didn't like was how it handled the credits with him mourning his wife - it felt rushed. I know nothing about the manga, but I have high hopes for this.Also, I can't help but be reminded of Golden Kamuy, even though the story is completely different. It's probably just all the snow and the uniforms.
>>287288846I see no problem with this. mc hot, wife hot, fuck both, hotness all around
>>287296147Abe...
>Loved the first episode>Go to read the manga to see more without waiting>English translations only up to the 14th chapter while other languages are up to the 40thBros..... not like this........
does it stay good? Is the anime worth continuing or should I just read the manga instead?Also, what does it remind you of? It kinda gives me Light Yagami + Lelouch vibes with the super smart manipulator MC in a war-torn setting, but more grounded and political. Any other good comparisons? (Death Note, Code Geass, Legend of the Galactic Heroes, etc.?)
>>287300927why would you not want the work to be be standalone?
>>287300927Watch 3 episodes and find out.We actually don't know how will they draw the politics scenes. Certainly different from prologue.
>>287301223I only hope they keep this level of cinematography
>>287299094we just have to be patient, anonthe guys doing the english TLs seem to be legit, they've also being TLing Amateur Vigilantethey've been doing good work
Gives me golden kamuy with the weirdo ruthless government officials
It's depressing to think about how many seinen manga go undiscovered because they almost never get anime and no one wants to translate them.
>>287290509I liked the OP
>>287301536the answer is 'a lot'
>>287301545I remember the ED the mostWHEN THE NIGHT FALLS UPONI JUST CAN'T IGNORE THE URGEDON'T WANT TO HURT YOU MY LOVEBUT MY HEART CAN FEEL THE SURGE
>>287301536>still no Roppen TLs...
>>287302338This art kind of reminds me of Ender Geister for some reason.
>>287261949Series worth checking out?I'd never heard of it before and just read the synopsis when browsing stuff on anichart. Seems like it has potential.
A bit hesitant to watchI read what has been translated and while the art and setting are cool it doesn't really take off in 13 chapters while being full of time skipsIt might be the TL but the protag's INT feats are very overplayed, not as engaging as it tries to be
>>287303609Yeah, citing the art of war is a big red flag
>>287303638what's up with your shitty quality wembs
>>287302338https://sirenscans.com/series/646c8d94993/A new group started recently. because of what happened in mangadex every group now only share it on their own site, makes finding TLs harder.
>>287303638I liked it, but it also pissed me off a little.Like >>287304117 I've grown tired of muh Art of War, muh talk no jutsu. Its a lot to ask for, but it'd be nice for more an MC to embrace a Might Makes Right mentality. since that's how things would actually work.Or maybe its because they did a good job making you attached to his wife and I wanted to see him last out, idk
>>287304958shit, meant for >>287303609
>>287275264And yours is the color of dried cum
>>287273772we couldnt even have GATE threads without retards pushing IRL politics back then when no one cared, at least into>hurr durr Japan army>hurr durr the author just hates the UNetcso ignore them, there's always something, it takes ONE misnamed gun to start something sometimes
>>287263245
>>287305292>NOOOOO LEAVE POLITICS OUT OF MY PROPAGANDA!!!!!kys retard
>>287263245Still would.
>>287304844>because of what happened in mangadexNo it's because they want to paywall
so i realized the wait time is so slow so im just going to read the manga for more hot MC
>>287305812yeah he's my wife
>>287305820I don't really like le funny faces. They were funny in golden kamui, but here? It really feels a mismatch.
>>287260890from the map alone Yamato has the better parts of Japan for agriculture and climate, if Seii has Hokkaido they may rival that during summer, depending if they can produce enough energy. Bou has the worst position, Kanto compared to the other 2 (if Seii has Hokkaido)
I like how they went with the dress in the show though. the jacket doesn't seem as impactful.
