i am so glad that you still make these. Nowadays i got a better idea on what i really want to watch, so i often don't find any new anime to watch in these "in a nutshell" videos you make, but the way you deliver them is splendid. You are consistently funny while somehow still being able to deliver what the shows are about, and that is really impressive. I really enjoy watching these! Thank you ^^

As a guy who's been watching anime since 2013, I comb through the charts and see what clicks and rn I got tired of watching anime and just resorts to manga. Still enjoying the reviews though.

[@mr.tataumbol]

@@kaelthunderhoof5619this but my problem now is which originals are good, and which adaptation is great. Mangas and LNs give good filter of what to watch, and then from it a good episode or two of said title in anime will give you a rough idea if it’s good or bad to continue watching. But I still watch almost all titles I knew as I stack the mangas up for binge reading that I watch the show purely because I forget about the plotlines of the mediocre ones🤣

[@crazykim]

Same, but these videos also helped me explore enough variety of anime's to have come to that point, so I'm bound by honour to watch every single one. Helps that they're still fucking hilarious

[@LoomDoom]

Well said. I’ve watched a ton of anime, so I usually will take a look at the charts before a season. But I’ve been watching Garnt’s pre-season chart viewings more since it’s more that way. Sometimes Garnt will flag a show in these nutshell videos that I wasn’t expecting to be good though (ex: Yakuza Fiancé)

I read the manga last year for Halloween in preparation for the anime and I know how you feel. It's like Duke Nukem Forever but instead of taking 14 years it took 5 years, yet the last 3 episodes looked like they took only 6 months to make. P.S.

I read somewhere they ran into budget/production issues and it was either, don't release anything, or release what was released. No idea how true it is, but it would go some ways in explaining why they fumbled.

[@trifontrifonov4297]

Basically as I w understand it that great first episode took too much time and cost too much money, so the beancounters and bosses forced the project to be split between other studios and animators. And it's not even that the people who got drafted in did not do their best, it railroaded the creative process and split it between too many people without the overarching vision and quality control. It's becomes a mess. The people making it managed to push through and the last episodes are not nearly as bad, but there is the issue of adaptation. Adapting a story to a new medium is not easy and the show made the worst possible choice. It took slow paced and creepy story and tried to adapt all of it in too few episodes. It does not leave the show time the breathe and rushes and ruins far too many moments. It needed to cut some stuff, but nobody had the stones to do that to one of the best horror stories ever told. It was a flawed project to begin with, as it was about capturing someone style and spirit perfectly in animation, instead of adapting their work in a new media.

I am very confused though, first he said it was great, then he continued showing more of the same as what he prior called great, but suddenly hates it?

[@miyakosuzushima]

15:36 - Well, if I remember correctly, the male lead DOES try to tell his boss that he can’t go to Alaska because of his cat, but she pretty much dismisses it, saying that the cat isn’t an excuse. I don’t think being less socially adverse would have helped with that being the case.

[@electroninja7419]

No it would, it’s a shit excuse that really holds up to nothing,

[@feha92]

Yes it would? He could also have said "I can't go to alaska because I don't want to, and it is not part of my job contract". Or if it was, cut off the last half of that sentence, and imply that the option is them firing him with severance. (or that he simply resigns). The boss is honestly entirely correct that a cat is not an excuse for why you can't go - because there is literally nothing preventing you from bringing it with you.

Thank you for standing at the forefront of anime culture for over a decade now. I remember watching your videos in 8th grade, you were like the cool and funny older brother I never had. I’m glad you’re still making content and am happy to watch the recommendations you’ve made in this video:)

btw for anyone wondering Gigguk used the last part of the 9th symphony from Antonin Dvorak From the new World in 11:40 to 12:19 beautiful symphony and my favourite by far.

[@matheusmarquesbragamonteir9853]

Hi Giguuk. I'm from Brazil 🇧🇷. I really like your videos, they are very creative, funny, entertaining, long and well done. As a huge anime fan, I'm very happy to have you in the area 😃👍. Even though my English isn't very good and I generally don't understand your videos 😅. Even so, I can say that you are one of the best anime channels on KZbin, I wish you even more success. Much love to anime 🥰. 1:08 he got me too😑.

Orb mention got me unreasonably excited (and seeing Orb fans gathering got me even more hyped). i really hope this will have more people watch it!

[@htetyanmin6278]

10:31 orb is the real hidden gem anime this season

[@cyancat5451]

The weirdest thing is, Uzumaki was only about 2 hours long if you put all the episodes together. If the story had been made as a movie, with the allotted time, budget and animators that an anime movie typically gets compared to a show, there could hypothetically have been a Junji Ito adaptation where the animation was consistent for its entirity. It would be one thing if the story was so long it couldn't fit into 90-100 minutes, but here it seems like the real factor that doomed it to becoming an inconsistent let-down as the episodes progressed was that whoever controls the process greenlighting Junji Ito adaptations wouldn't commit to a movie even when the story was short enough for it to be feasible

[@l33t9r0u93]

16:55 the appropriate joke would have been "this was the perfect show for my first insulin shot"

By the way Gigguk, please make sure you watch Yatagarasu: The Raven Does not Choose its Master before you do your Anime 2024 video It's a court drama like Apothecary Diaries and incredibly underrated

Gigguk, the concept of heliocentrism versus the earth rotating around the sun goes back to 230 BCE and a dispute between Aristotle's Heliocentric theory and Aristarchus. As there was no way to test either theory in 230 BCE the prevailing theory was Heliocentrism. In 1610 Galileo invented his telescope and mapped out Venus rotating not around the Earth but the sun. Nicolaus Copernicus's advantage was that Warsaw was much further from Rome and his research was not held as heretical.

[@Axterix13]

Added to that, the show plays up a what if situation, rather than the reality. Galileo had some issues with a faction of the church, but he himself was friends with the Pope.

[@LEOTomegane]

It's similar to the "earth is flat" thing with Columbus; a good chunk of the people who actually cared were generally aware of the reality.

[@DavidCowie2022]

The sun-centred model was proved by Johannes Kepler, who was a religious man and did not believe that God would have created something as inelegant as the earth-centred model, which needs wheels within wheels within wheels to make predictions line up with observations. Copernicus had the disadvantage that he believed the planets' orbits to be perfect circles, so predictions from his model were no better than the best geocentric models. Heretical *and* inaccurate? No thanks! Kepler had the key insight that orbits are elliptical, and this made his model's predictions spot-on accurate. My main source on this matter describes the properties of elliptical orbits, and snarkily says"This was surely pleasing to the benevolent God who created mathematicians."

[@a2falcone]

Unlike Copernicus, Galileo presented his ideas in the midst of the Catholic Counterreformation, when the Church became more zealous with what might be heretical. He also took the poor strategy of presenting his theories in a book written as dialogues between fictional characters, one of which was a priest who was ridiculed as ignorant and stupid, and many thought represented the Pope. The Pope was Galileo's employer and monarch, so he didn't like that at all. No one was ever burned at the stake for defending heliocentrism. There was this guy, Giordano Bruno, who was burned for heresy. While he did defend heliocentrism, that wasn't the reason he was sentenced to death. He was sentenced to death for countless other heretical ideas about theology.

[@Modie]

@@DavidCowie2022 I mean, technically, you can make a working geocentric model. It's part of relativity that any observer can be the one being still from their point of view, so the same is true for earth as well. I mean, if we want to predict how the planets move on our sky, we actually have to do exactly that. Use the heliocentric model and then recalculate it into one where the observer on earth is the center. The show actually makes this point early on, it just becomes very hard to make predictions with this model. And when it comes to science we usually want to use the most simple model there is. That's why we still use Newton mechanics and not relativity to calculate our day to day observations, because while relativity is technically the true model, Newton mechanics are close enough in the space we are living that it would just make it unnecessarily complicated to not use it.

I hope it will lead you down to the crazy rabbit hole of Catholic Science and how it shaped the foundation of Modern Science.
