The best 7/10 anime I've watched this year. My favorite kind.

Plays its tropes straight but written well enough to not be bad.
Animation's good enough but not much to be high quality.
Pacing is fast but not rushed.

It's in the perfect border of being genuinely great and garbage.

[CITY The Animation]
Insane animation. KyoAni really bouncing back.

I wish I liked the content of the show as much as the animation though. The execution of the comedy was a miss for me and I felt like a lot of the scenes really overstayed their welcome.

Chiitan loves all transgender people.
I've received a lot of criticism for expressing my support, but what's more important is that all transgender people live happy lives.

I think the biggest difference between The Internet Then and The Internet Now is how Being Mad Online used to be the one thing you could never admit to, under pain of death, and now, Being Mad Online is a whole career path with a skill tree and an ever-expanding variety of debuffs.

Absolutely devastated by this news. SpaceDrake was no doubt a huge influence in drumming up interest for Japanese indie games localized into English and pushing for them on digital distribution storefronts like steam. Huge loss. Might be time for another playthrough of Recettear in his honour.

A tweet from Robin Light-Williams (@BlondRobin) stating the following: Hello to anyone reading this. I am Robin Light-Williams, formerly lead translator for Carpe Fulgur. I am very sorry to announce that my friend and business partner Andrew Dice, @SpaceDrakeCF, has passed away. Pursuant to that, Carpe Fulgur will be ceasing operations.

[Call of the Night Season 2]
I think I prefer the more relaxed pace of the manga but I also think this was cursed to be rushed so they could reach the climax it had to.
