I've been watching aria
About halfway through the first season
It's really good! I've enjoyed every episode so far
Please do not spoil it!
I love the three main in-training girls, they have nice personalities that complement eachother and it makes their friendship fun

Better late than never. The Colori Colore Creare storytime is covering an Aria prequel right now.
>>
I think Alice is my favorite girl
I also really like the contrast between the different gondola companies, with Aria being an independently owned small business, himeya being a family run type thing, and orange planet being a large organization with dozens and dozens of undines. It gives the world scale

I was aware that there was an aria storytime that started a few months back, but that was around the time I was about to start watching aria and I like anime more than I like manga so I decided to skip it. Does the prequel have anything to do with the characters or is it all about the world? Would I spoil anything for myself if I started following it?

It's set far enough in the past that there's no possible (human) character overlap; it's cute kids playing near (and now going to school in) neo-Venezia while it's still being built

Enjoy it, The second season especially is my favorite because there's just so many "average tuesday" kinds of feels that it made it feel like the comfy times would never end. Personally I think it has the most soul. The complete experience is going to the real venice and basically having a spiritual experience visiting all the anime locations irl. There's places online where you can find them all mapped out.

I thought it was an interesting creative choice to have Aria shachou fall off the gondola and drown in the second season but I'm glad Akari was able to get over it.

I know you said "do not spoil" but even the guys are Al, Akatsuki, and Ayanokouji.
Also random side characters, Akiko, Agatha, Amelie, Ami, Ange, Anita, Arashi, Asuna, Ayano, Akane, Anri.
Other undines you won't meet until S3 Atora, Anzu, Ayumi, Anna, Azusa, Anya. (biggest spoiler of all) __Ai__.
Basically, everyone with a given name. At least in the anime. I didn't look up every name in the manga.

Nice one, OP. After reading the manga, I watched the anime over the course of two months, one episode an evening (on average), and it was the perfect thing to end the day.
Pic related is the cutest, but it'll be a while before she shows up (and she is very much a side character without much screentime).

Middleschool Aika was great. But the hairstyle she had after the barbecue incident was not as good as the twintails one.

I always found it funny how despite being set in neo-Venezia, the backgrounds keep shifting between "Venice except on Mars" and "generic European city with canals".

Isn't Woody himself a reference to another Amano manga? Roman Club, was it?

And I think the sensei in Amanchu is the sister of one of the MCs in roman club.

Which profession is oldest, gnome, salamander, or sylph? I'd think it has to be sylph. Even before the atmospheric and geological terraforming began there would have been a need to deliver parcels and relay messages.

>>288867109
Sylphs would make sense, but they might've looked a bit different in the early days. I.e. larger vessels that move heavy equipment instead of smaller scooters for your Mamazon packages.

Ngl I got too when I tried to watch it at the first time like over a decade ago.
But when the time went on my tastes shifted heavily into SOL/iyashikei/anything more relaxed and anons kept gushing about the show so I tried again.
Oh boy I'm glad I did. It's pretty much my favourite thing ever.
