This anime season, we have:
Yuusha-kei ni Shosu
Yuusha Party o Oidasareta Kiyou binbou
and
Yuusha Party ni Kawaii Ko ga Ita node, Kokuhaku shitemita.
Has there been another moment in anime history with three concurrently airing titles that begin with the same word?

Hyakuemu's acclaim reminded me of the Uoto interview asking about anime influences where they went "idk I don't watch much, but I love Eupho & Shirobako so much they gotta be influential for me". Wanted to rant so much about Kumiko and Myaamoru it split off into a separate blurb. Truly based author
Came across an itw with Chi's author where they confess to not watching much anime but LOVING Eupho and Shirobako. Their only request to the anime team was to get Kensuke Ushio, whose music they first heard in Ping Pong and fell in love with through Koe & Liz and the Blue Bird. We were meant to be
Caught up with Chi / Orb. Ep #03 is outsourced and its technical execution falters a bit, but it's nicely directed. Everything Shimizu's boards & Masato Miyoshi's processing attempt is fundamentally sound and furthers previous themes to conclude that human curiosity is inescapable. Fun twist too!

Knew Ikoku Nikki was going to be good because the source material rules and the staff's good, but goddamn what an amazing first episode. So far brilliant structure to bypass pacing issues, direction that really understands the core of the series, and waaaay better animation than it'll get credit for

What do you mean there's a Six Seven restaurant in Seattle...

Urushibara Yuki the GOAT. There's a scene in Suiiki where the MC realizes her ancestral village doesn't exist anymore (sunk by a dam) but still birthed her and lives on through her. Then I see this panel. The unmistakably earthy, feminine imagery of a womb, vagina, and umbilical cord. It's genius.

There's a new English release of Mushishi, lettered by Phil Christie (@kernedout.bsky.social). I adore how Urushibara-sensei utilizes texture in her art, and how the sound effects inherit that texture. Phil does an amazing job replicating that with subtitled SFX. Notes in alt text!

Look Back in Indian newspapers! Strange times we live in. The anime club I once helped run in my hometown is hosting a special screening of it, with a 4koma contest and booklet and special tickets and all that. Great stuff. Really hope the film does well over there. Everyone needs to see it.

4 hour drives are painful enough without having to
A. Do it between 9 PM and 1 AM
B. Do it without music
C. Do it with your obnoxious racist manager in the passenger seat, talking all the way
D. All of the above
Guess which option I had to deal with?

The Watatabe anime trailer looks incredibly mid... I've lost 😔💔
Nice music, but it can't save the anime for me. Doesn't even look bad, just really forgettable. Not what I want for my favourites.

Just caught up to Akebi earlier today (very convenient how chapter 80 dropped minutes before I almost ran out of chapters lol), but I've run out of superlatives to describe the art, and honestly just massive props to Hiro for being this consistent. A very pleasing read overall.
