Episode 2 of AOTY is out
>no guards posted to keep watch for potential intruders>leaders get killedI'll give this one more episode before dropping if the retarded writing continues.
>>287416726Does the manga have any rape scenes featuring this beautiful and voluptuous lady? Or any lewd scene for that matter?
>>287416788Haha so unrealistic...
I want to fuck the MC too. he's too cute >>287416756anyways going to watch. i'll be back
>>287416726>>287416756Damn, he got a replacement wife already?
>>287417048Yeah, look at this army general getting assassinated....
>>287416798Big Boss?
I love how over exaggerated everyone is. good writing on that front for sure.
>>287416788Don't worry, there will be no meme fighting in the near future because we're in for A LOT of policy talking.
when's the last time we got an actual 'animated MC' like him?>>287417181>they call me tsune-chanyeah he tops misumi
Our guy is cringe...
>>287417161>policy talkingI hope they are more interesting that the slime meeting trash.
Wait a minute.That's a penis.
sex with misumi
>>287417292
>these nosesyikesdid they hire a tumblr artist?
Is this yaoi?
>>287417305>>287417317
Feels like all the premieres I liked last week are having shitty 2nd episodes
>>287417336that's just you anon. this is a really enjoyable second episode
Looks like literal dogshit. No wonder subhumans faggots on /a/ lappijng it up
Yeah this frame right here. someone add some tears
>>287416726i kinda wish they didnt change the color palette. I like how ep 1 look.

>>287417336Snowball Earth bro...
>>287417444
>>287417477
>>287417494this episode was made for me
>>287417458NTRojisans...
>>287417505
really enjoyable episodes so far. It's been a while since i chuckled over jokes like this. Misumi is a cute and fuckable MC. i also ship him and tsune-chanI like how they've been adapting the anime so far.
>>287416756Why are these Meiji men so effeminate? This was supposed to be the most manly period in Japan.
>>287416885She dies off-screen.
>>287416798IM NUCLEAR

>>287417322>you can be my wingman anytime
>>287417646>tsune-chan>talks very effeminatelyhuh i wonder why?
>>>/wsg/6127143
>>287417646Chemicals from nucleus war turning everyone feminine in Meiji 2.0
>>287416726>AOTYNot even close. The first episode was about a retarded autist less manly than his own wife, who suddenly gets functional autism after she was killed offscreen. It's trash.
>>287417935inserting your own opinions in the story line doesn't make it any less great of an adaptation
>>287417832Lelouch sounds different than usual.
>>287417994>great of an adaptationInserting your own opinion doesn't make it true. Or are you one of those that think your opinion is always objectively true facts?
>>287416756>ywn have a cute gf rubbing menstrual blood on your faceWhy even live broskis?
>Moving text in the ED is the timeline from the volume extra
>>287418051looks like you just showed me how you don't have media literacy.
Giorno x Buccielati
>>287418071>cute gfdoes he know?
>>287418119>media literacyCute buzzword only used by south asains
>>287418220reread my post instead of acting like an asshole
Maybe the people who said it had Golden kamui vibes were right.
>>287418220>>287418242Both of you are retards who probably need to go back, one for " media literacy " and the other for being ESL
lmao
>ESL accusing others of being ESL A tale as old as time
one of the better anime this seasontoo many good anime this season
>>287418617Name 5
>>287418514>asains
Oh wow they literally got Lelouch to voice him
>misspellings are now ESLbait
>>287418943you are free to double check your post before submitting them, you seething retard.
>>287417494>>287417505yeah this guy is a complete faggot so far
>>287419081and we love him for it. It's pretty obvious by the way he speaks, he is.
New dommy mommy?
>>287418774
>>287416726>artstyle tries hard to be different from the mass>normalfags call it AOTY two seconds latermeh, it's just enough to form an opinion for me, I don't even need to watch it
>>287419411watch it for yourself and make your own opinion? people do this shit and then watching something years later and think they missed out
But his eyes are closed.
>>287419662he's pretending to be a fox to trick misumi in to sex
>>287419411normalfags aren't watching this
>fell for obvious bl AGAINwhy does this keep happening
>>287417935When you think about it the characters are so retarded that it's not even funnyAfter they opposed the cartoonish villain on ep1 I thought "ah, here's is when they run out together and the main plot starts" and this retarded couple goes to sleep in their house where obviously the PM will know where they are sleeping.As soon as I saw they were going to sleep like nothing happened I already knew she was gonna die.This feels like it was written by a 16 year old
This anime is making a compelling case for repealing the 銃砲刀剣類所持等取締法 immediately. Society would become a lot cooler a lot faster. Elevates every fit and makes society. Fuck it, mandate open carry everywhere, fine people if they are in public and don't have a visible sidearm on their person.
>>287420332no it's very clearly a cringy adult writing a retarded cringy autist teen dialogue well. i have high hopes they will all suffer further and that may be good eventually.
>>287420326wtf is this real? fuck I thought ep1 was kino..
>>287420326You should've known when i said mc was very fuckable in the ep 1 thread. faggots only watch faggot shows, im sorry to tell you this.
>>287420415American anon.....
>>287420951You call me American but don't deny that his fit goes hard. Sidearms for everyone NOW!
>>287420557not really, I haven't read the manga though
Why is /a/ so insanely retarded? most underage board of this entire site.
>>287421151because /a/ is a shounen board
>>287421151Surely you mean /v/>>287421186Actually it's a moe board
>>287421235not since the brazilians got on board
>>287421235nah /v/ has a lot of out of touch gen x and memey zoomers but /a/ is sincere in how fucking retarded dumb they are.
>>287421151There's really no reason for the most generic of shitposting criticism should get you this mad
>>287421257Do brazilians really even post here after the death of /dbs/? spics aren't as much of a thing, feels like the board gets more annoying filipinos recently
>>287421341SEAbrowns mainly live on /vt/ and /v/ as I understand it. Plenty of "South Asians" here though, you will recognize them by how they use the word "stuffs" in their posts.
>>287416726Is anyone else struggling with suspension of disbeleif on this? It's getting even more stupid. I thought it was a serious anime, but damn if it is cartoonish
what triggered that guy?
>>287421462why would you think it was serious?
>>287421406I actually haven't noticed many jeets here. /vt/ is basically dead, I think SEAfags post mostly here now
can you faggots report the retard for blatant trolling?
>>287421489I have no idea lol, people calling it BL I guess? There's really not much in this thread to get mad at lol
>>287420326I THOUGHT I WAS SAFE SINCE MC HAD A WIFE
>>287421589everyone is too chill and enjoying the ride. They'll probably back off after another thread
>>287421990anon.. bisexuals exist. just because he has a dead wife doesn't mean his hole has to stay tight
>>287419326>It's a dude.Dropped.
Evil woman love
>>287422316She is quite beautiful. I can maybe forgive the tattoos if she also is charming.
muh dickus maximus
MINION CHADS WWA
>>287422484IS THAT A DUDE? MY DICKUS SHRINKUS
Tsune-chan san is impressive, love the Akira design. I love him.
You guys kept hyping this up but it's actually really retarded
>>287422027>just because he has a dead wife doesn't mean his hole has to stay tight
>>287422604I think my dickus confusus
The tone in this is like a weird mixture of Golden Kamuy and Under Ninja.I kinda like it, but I get the feeling that this is going to be a REALLY acquired taste.
>>287422687Talk to your dick about filial piety, it should get rock hard.
>>287422569>6 hours waiting line
>>287422717I think this is an apt description of what to expect. I think the humor is very spot on and hilarious but if you don't like this, you wont find it funny. It's very similar to people not understanding popular nip gag comic humor like gintama or the weird blue cat one.
>>287419076>seething retardYou seem to be taking this too seriously, my assblasted friend. Calm down, it's just cartoons.
>>287422316I love when shows stay grounded with the hair colors
This guy is an interesting character.
>>287422717Pretty sure that it's full of references to Japanese politics and Three kingdoms. So if you don't know both you will miss the context.
>>287423273>only true weebs will understand this seriesi'm expecting to get popular 13kingdom fans are insane
>fuck off retard>lol i was just pretending
Woah, the Chinese are so wise
>>287416726Good fucking god these character designs are ugly. The "woman" on the left looks like a crossdresser. I really hope this isn't AOTY, because I don't want to have to spend a dozen or so episodes watching these ugly creatures on screen. Seriously, this has to be the ugliest artstyle of the season.
>>287423588>t. Didn't watch it
>>287423588>The "woman" on the leftFirst time?
>>287423588>rare anime where the characters actually look Japanese>/a/ hates it
>>287417336Akane had a great one
>>287417336this episode was great, be a faggot elsewhere
>>287423731They look Japanese? Where are the female characters that look like pic related then? >>287423606That's the thing. I don't want to watch it because it looks ugly.>>287423614Wait, was I right? Is the "female" on the left really a crossdressing dude? lmao, if so.
>>287423588>>287423833>crossdressing dudeIt's just a dude, nigga, he's literally wearing a regular ass suit.
>>287423873AHAHAHA, does this show actually have any female characters?Or is this just a show designed for fujos?
>is good because is ugly
>>287423922The MC had a wife.
>>287423833That's all plastic and makeup
>>287423833>That's the thing. I don't want to watch it because it looks ugly.Imagine bitching about show you didn't even watch. I don't know why anyone is entertaining your replies.
I like this a lot. It’s got Miike vibes.
>>287423947She's cute. But if the two main characters are going to be the ugly dude with the dorky hairdo and the other ugly dude with the Bruno Bucciarati hairstyle, then that's gonna be a pass from me. >287423969>she's attractive, therefore she must have a ton of makeup and/or is only beautiful because of plastic surgery (gotta cover all my bases when coping!)Every fucking time.>>287424184If it's any consolation to you, this is going to be my last post here and in any of the threads for this show. I have no intention of being a troll. Just wanted to state my impressions of seeing the picture in the OP and other pictures ITT. I'm gone after this.
again I ask, why is /a/ one of the most retarded boards on this site?
>>287423947>kills your beautiful feminist wife
>>287424325It's not. I mean /a/ is shit, but somehow it's still one of the better boards on this site. The bar is just that low these days.
How to Win the War and Influence People with FACTS and LOGIC.
>>287424396it's not though, /a/ is legit one of the worst boards on the site. what's the competition? /gif/?
>>287424325>>287424483at least we clear the low bar of not being /v/...
>>287424325>>287424483Dude the fact that you're getting this pissed at the most tame shitposts tells me that you must be a normalfag crossboarder or tourist
>>287424535/v/ actually has some fun off topic and more on topic threads. You can actually discuss more obscure stuff sometimes without getting instantly 404'd by /a/ shitty generals.
>>287424575This.
>>287424483Nah, I'd say most of the media boards are way worse than /a/.The shitposting for this show has actually been pretty tame compared to what you usually see.>>287424593The fact that you even posted this tells me that you don't belong here.
>>287424575>shut up retard>DURRRRRRRR I was just pretendingfuck off
>>287424630Genuinely what are you talking about lol
>without getting instantly 404'd by /a/ shitty generals.>catalog is full of 0-10 posts page 10 threads made 10+ hours agoNever happens, tourist-dono.Go back.
Kind of a whatever episode 2. I guess it's hard to live up to such a strong pilot.
>>287424650he doesn't like people being chill but he doesn't recognize how weird and out of place he's being because he's used to shit posting in mentally ill threads
>>287424630Bros..../a/ is the worst board ToT
This is the most "We made this for gaijin" show of the season, jesus christ.
>>287424758yeah you can really feel the Amazon MGM Studios notes in every frame
This isn't real anime.
why bother to engage when you can just talk about misumi being cute and funny?
>>287424716It's still got some great visual style, but yea, the first episode was very strong.Not bad though, I'm interested to see where it goes since the setting is pretty unique.
>>287424693>Never happensESL blud
>>287424716It's the opposite for me, episode 1 was the whatever episode. I'm glad we're finally getting into the meat of things now that the motivational character is dead
>>287416726>AOTYLet me guess, you were calling the monkey Netflix show AOTY just before this?This is one of those shows desperately and constantly trying to pass itself off as "art" but it should be immediately apparent if you're anything but a complete and utter midwit that its just shallow trash. At least this >>287424758 anon gets it. Everyone else, enjoy the coming threads that will amount more to seething about other people not "getting" the show than actual discussion about your show.
>>287424909Sit down EOP pleb. /a/ king is talking.
>>287418399>drop a truth nuke>plebeians be like
Fuck, I thought Misumi was going to have a female sidekick.I've been tricked twice in one season.
>>287424993ANIME JANAI
>>287424758>>287424993You guys are just making shit up now lmao. This manga is only relatively popular in Japan and basically only appeals to historical autists
>>287424993most obvious samefag ever
>>287425079It's not real manga. No manga boy.
>>287424993The monkey show was shallow trash because it was basically the author trying to write about a topic he didn't understand or could relate to which led to it being unintentionally hilarious, a problem this show doesn't have since it's clearly a topic the writer is very familiar with and he actually knows how to make characters charming and engaging instead of either blatant mouthpieces or cartoonishly evil assholes.
Misumi is not gay. Tsune is clearly gay, but is too stupid to realise it.
>>287425128the first two volumes are literally free to read [right now]. the fuck are you talking about?https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/dp/B09SZ6VY42
>>287425179>instead of either blatant mouthpiecesHow you can say this after two episodes of the main character being just that is hilarious.
>>287425179>The monkey show was shallow trash because it was basically the author trying to write about a topic he didn't understandHe was pretty on point.>noooo US is actually different the politics is very complex!
>>287425222the main character IS cringe, canonically. thats not the same thing as a mouthpiece he's just an autist and it isn't glorified or celebrated or anything.
>>287425217>digitalNot real manga.
>>287425222Misumi doesn't strike me as a mouth piece, more just an autist.
>>287425270then buy the physical editions
>>287425222The main character is a dumbass bookworm nerd with little real life experience, which is why a character like Tsune is necessary to support/clash with him and vice versa.
>nippon sangoku is getting better boost than Yomi no Tsugai (Daemons) and Witch Hat Atelier this seasonNice. Search 日本三國http://shosekiranking.blog.fc2.com/
>>287425450vol 7 just released a couple days ago (april 10). that's to be expected
Darwin Incident and this are both great
>>287424758>"we made this for gaijin">it's a post apocalyptic sankoku jidai social climbing anime with an autistic MC golden kamui designs and BL undertonesI can't think of anything the avergae western audience wants less
>>287424758It doesn't even have official translation yet, you're trying too hard
As much as I dislike Bezos, Prime usually has some of the best stuff to watch in recent seasons. GQuuuuuuX (Spring 2025) New PSG (Summer 2025) Sanda (Fall 2025)Darwin Incident (Winter 2026)Nippon Sangoku (Spring 2026)
>>287426042My personal bias for GQuuuuuuX and PSG aside, all those shows sucked.
>>287426081Nu Panty Stocking clears OG
>>287426081GQux is the worst one there, bro.
This looks pretentious as fuck. Is it the same type of wankery as GATE where author channels his nationalistic views and resentement into a power fantasy?
>>287426156I don't think so at all.
>>287426156It looked like it might be at first yeah but after 2 episodes I don't think so. Despite the nationalist objective of both protags (which is kinda justified in this case since the country is a mess due to balkanization) it's a bit too concerned with antiracist discourse, defiance of authority, and making fun of itself to be nationsalist propaganda
>>287426042>GQUUUUXwtf
>>287426042>GQuuuuuuX
>>287426603>>287426670Nta but objectively yeah it was great. I got my Gundam buddies to get all together for drinking and fun and on /a/ the airing threads were a nice bunch. Doesn't mean I would ever watch it again alone but I would gladly watch it with others.
>>287424242Every time when someone argues with someone who doesn't watch the show the results are zany.Please, Klaus Schwab, if you can hear us, just buy 4chan already, implement forced digital ID/4chan/MAL sync so we can avoid such things.
>>287426743>objectively yeah it was greatI get that anything you watch with friends or have a good time watching with /a/ is gonna leave you with a nice memory but come on anon. The very fact that you wouldn't rewatch it should be a good hint. And even if you're not the type to rewatch stuff you liked, I, an anon who watched Gquux all by her lonesome, am telling you: it sucked balls.
I hope the anime being this well received means the scanlator working on the manga will stay motivated. He's being doing a great job so far and I want him to continue!
>>287426855make friends, loser
>>287426855I can't help it if my friends don't like mecha, anon.
>>287422717>Under NinjaI wish it was adapted by a better studio.
>>287427394TezukaPro should be banned from touching any more seinen manga, they adapted 3 good ones in a row and they were all sub-par adaptations.
>>287427796That's what happens when popular shounen hoard all the talent in the industry, unless it's a passion project no one talented is touching niche seinen
>>287427796Pluto and Fable were bad?
>>287426042Great bait
>>287427898Honestly, even big popular seinen manga get pretty subpar treatment, both Golden Kamuy and The Fable are super popular and their anime are...not bad, but don't seem to get nearly the budget/talent you'd think they would for such popular manga.>>287427991Pluto was good, but that was in development hell for, what, a decade?Fable isn't bad, but it's definitely subpar, like I said, I don't think any of their adaptations were bad per-se, just not particularly good.
>>287428114unfortunately only china or popular studios can afford to retain or freelance talent. However I look to see who the animation is directo of a show because a decent number of shows have old talent
>>287427796>>287427991>>287428114Fable was great, but solely due to getting an elder god-tier director
This is basically LotGH in an alt history not-feudal Japan (that doesn't even make sense) for the TikTok generation. The gayest fucking shit imaginable.
>>287428351>gay LotGHSo LotGH?
How come the art of swordsmithing not only didn't vanish but flourished enough to supply so many people with katanas folded over one thousand times etc etc
>>287428351>best thing I can imagine ever but put tiktok generation at the endHmmm yeah eww how awful haha who would want that not me a millenial pfft I don't want this at all
At least there are no annoying super quick cuts like in the first ep this time. Some choices look like studio is showing off, though there are nice parts too like >>287423357
>>287416726this is genuinely incredible holy shitSetting, visuals are great and Penkin is on this as well? why haven't i heard about it before
So this is the silly gag comedy of the year?
>>287428533Not enough gay yang
>>287425222You mean the MC that blatantly says he has no practical experience in politics and only pursues it because he wants revenge?
>>287420332>As soon as I saw they were going to sleep like nothing happened I already knew she was gonna die.Was that not the point? I doubt that anyone believed she would survive the event, apart from the extremely naive MC.
>>287417458>>287417526What was the deal with these random knife psychos? They even climbed in through a window. Why? What's their motivation? What's their tax policy? Reminds me of those labyrinth madmen from Bloodborne.
>>287420332Why did the kung fu wife job offscreen though? I've been asking that since last episode. She knew kung fu! She kicked that guy's ass. She had elite self defense skills. How did she just lose like that? We didn't even see it!
>>287430553Some men simply have tougher paths of conquest to walk than others.
>AMAZONAh, that explains it.
You know who this guy reminds me of? Sakura and her inner Sakura
>>287430672I kept waiting for any context from Lelouch or the random henchmen in the room. Nobody said anything. They just accepted a random window psycho invasion.
>>287430636They ganked her as she walked out the door. It was the only way they could defeat such a powerful martial artist. >>287420332Legally she did nothing wrong. The tax collectors were abusing their power before the deadline. It's meant to show the disconnect between the common sense of ordinary people and the corrupt bureaucracy.
>>287430724It's clearly meant to convey a sense of insecurity and civilizational decay, don't overthink it.
The direction, the editing, the animation, the style, it's all so crazily good. Of course, none of that would matter if the content wasn't interesting, but so far it's been pretty damn entertaining. I hope they'll manage to keep this quality throughout the season.
>>287420332Yeah, literally going back to your unsecured house after fucking up a wannabe despot's lackeys is peak retardation, but I guess the author found no other way to give the MC motivation and a tragic backstory.Frankly, I would have preferred the wife to be the MC since she was the one with ambition and drive. If this wasn't retardedly written, she would have gathered the townspeople together and form a community defense against the cartoon villain. If you want to make a better tragic backstory, have the town drive the fat guy out, and later have the town wiped out when he comes back with his personal army. Show the wife dying while trying to protect MC and the township, then he fucks off to do his revenge story. That would be nothing groundbreaking obviously, but it would be far less retarded and far more believable than what we got.
>>287430822>have the town drive the fat guy out, and later have the town wiped out when he comes back with his personal army. Show the wife dying while trying to protect MC and the township, then he fucks off to do his revenge storyAI-generated plot. They are just backwater peasants who don't fully grasp their situation. The wife saw some injustice in front of her so she stepped up to stop it. They don't have the life experience to see the big picture and understand how fucked they are.
Why did they remove the "refugees are more deadly than nukes" part from the introduction sequence?
>>287431051They truncated it in general, I wouldn't read too much into it. The full sequence every episode would be worse. They kept it in the first time so I doubt it's a woke thing.
>>287431030>AI-generated plotYeah, what we got was so retarded only an AI could write it
>>287430718ya know, this screenshot made me realize it really is directed like some trendy current-day vocaloid MV
BANANA
>>2874260421. Replace all that trash with Tonbo2. Amazon is absolute poison for popularity because they don't pay youtubers to shill like CR does
>all you have to do to make his knees touch the floor is to remove everything below his kneeslmao sure why not
>>287420326Bromance
>>287417656>She dies off-screen.>off-screenWhat a waste of ample tits.
Is this good, do I watch it
>>287433535>Is this good?Why don't you watch an episode, digest what you saw and make a decision for yourself?
halfway through ep 1 and I don't like this guys libtard wifeOr, should I say, I don't like the dumbass writers who are using her as their megaphonePolitical thrillers need to be more smartly written to be watchable
>>287434493halfway huh?
>>287434525yeah I don't have time rn but I'll finish it later
>>287434393no make decisions for me
>>287434600Ok my decision is for you to watch it and form an opinion yourself.
Is there an english translation for the manga that didn't stop at chapter 14? Couldn't find anything with a quick search on Google or on Nyaa.
>>287434493Maybe perhaps you should finish the episode before opening your idiot mouth.
>>287433535If you want a silly gag comedy sure.
