the fall 2024 anime watchlist review

[@phillemon7664]

DanDaDan gets infinitely crazier and better soon, it’s a little slow right now but it ramps up. Trust me

[@limabeeen5755]

me screaming “YESSSS” the whole video lmao like i love your takes!!

[@glode1726]

i recommend you read the dandadan manga the chemistry is really good between momo and okarun and its just a great time.

[@babelthebiblewithdys]

uzumaki only had enough budget to have 1 good episode, they said they'd rather at least finish it and be bad then only have one ep on a cliffhanger

[@cosmicjourney8629]

Thanks for the recommendations. I really like your vids, so I’m definitely subscribing.

❤️❤️❤️

i am really enjoying "Goukon ni Ittara Onna ga Inakatta Hanashi", the characters have some pretty fun dinamics and its just fun to watch

[@wachtel6552]

Do you plan to make review or analysis of Iyanu when it comes out?

[@kythekunoichi]

im just now learning of this. I'll add it to the list!

[@moustik31]

Fantasy and historical anime are also my favorite: I really enjoyed Yatagarasu this summer and plans to watch Orb this Fall! I'm not impressed by DanDanDanDan either, I've stopped pushing myself through the discomfort of fan service to appreciate a story and I havent regretted it yet.

Dandadan is fine to be overhyped its one of those unique gems out there. Altho i still dont like the overhyping culture of the anime community its a fxcking eyesore in my feed. Tbh, i sticked to the manga just coz it gives out a diff feeling.

[@KimandKamJam]

Personally I'm the exact opposite lol. As I've gotten older, gotten more responsibilities (marriage/house/kids/bills) I've come to appreciate the more silly/ridiculous aspects of anime. I don't really care about something serious/mature. That being said I appreciate my fellow millennial otaku who have essentially "grown out" of tnat type of entertainment. To each their own

[@kythekunoichi]

I feel that. I think my taste naturally changes every 7 years

[@ajmoment8091]

on the bad vibes you got from Dandadan, I will tell you that sex as a common thing in the series does not go away. At least, not up to where the manga currently is, but it has been showing up less and less with time, and there isn't anything quite as jarringly sexualized as that first episode shot of Momo. The only other time I can think about something like that happening to one of the girls is a single shot in an upcoming arch where Momo gets part of her shirt ripped off right over her bra, but even then she gets an outfit change within the chapter so it isn't that long. The same can't be said of the guys though, Jiji (the red haired guy) in particular is wearing exclusively his underwear and has people commenting on his "athletic body" for what is probably going to be the majority of his screentime in the first season of the anime. Being caught up on the Manga, I also definitely think your criticisms of the characters and their dynamics being just okay and it overall being written for the male gaze still hold true. The romance between Okarun and Momo is cute, but I don't think they have that good of a dynamic honestly, and the series has a major issue of character bloat where every arch, not a single exception so far, has introduced at least 1 new recurring character, and characters outside of Momo and Okarun rarely get that much attention outside of their introduction arch, even if you can tell they're clearly trying with some of them. And even with 2 protagonists, there are a lot of points where it really feels like Okarun takes the spotlight a lot more than Momo does, though it's not too egrigious thankfully. What I do mind more though is that Okarun has a few different things going on in his character arch, whereas Momo's character mostly centers around her relationship with Okarun, which doesn't sit right with me even if her level of focus and screentime isn't that much lower than Okarun's.

[@kythekunoichi]

So my intuition was spot on! Wooooowww Thanks for your comment!

[@moustik31]

If you like anime about adults, you might enjoy Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otakus. Edit: Yakuza Fiancé has me suffering from 2nd ML, again! And yes, they should have made them college students bec. Im reading the mange and the ML is very active.

[@kythekunoichi]

I looooove wotakoi!!! Is the anime series over ? No second season?

[@moustik31]

@kythekunoichi Sadly no, they never finished adapting the manga, I had to it to know, how the story ended. Then, I also read Sweat and Soap (it starts as smut but quickly become very wholesome).

[@Matias_L]

I was looking forward to Dandandan after all the hype but it’s rather… cringey… I tried watching it with my partner and as soon as it gets to the alien rape scene I knew it was probably a pass.

[@kythekunoichi]

‘Cringy’ is exactly how I would describe it!
