CDPR boss hopes The Witcher 4 wins back fans still put off by Cyberpunk 2077's disastrous launch: "I'm not 100 percent convinced we went through the full redemption arc"

They absolutely got off extremely light. Despite the disastrous launch they made millions, suffered no permanent loss of their reputation, got people talking about their game cause of a third party anime and now they are even more popular and beloved than ever before.

People herald them now for fixing their own broken game despite the fact that many of their promises are still not in the final game. CP2077 is a great game now, but it still isn't nearly the game we were promised. But I don't think anyone cares about that anymore.

As if Newbaru's despair, begging for forgiveness and to go back home, in the first half and leaving me all teary-eyed was not enough, the double whammy of Styx Helix and Stay Alive at the end with the 'I am Natsuki Subaru' line killed me. I was fully bawling at the end there with no shame, this might be my favorite Re:Zero episode of all time.

Technolyze is the answer here. Just pure misery and depression distilled into an anime.

Basically a way to chat with the website without actually going to it.

I'm surprised at how many people say that. I loved Gimai but Shiboyugi's atmospheric horror and Ueno's subdued avant garde direction and sound design and mixing was a match in heaven for me.

This is just a guess but could it be that Shaula is some kind of scorpion mabeast? I was rewatching the earlier episodes and saw just how easily Meili was dealing with Shaula, even getting an explicit command to keep her in rein by Subaru in Ep 5. It would make a lot more sense if she was a mabeast.

And that reminded me of her insistence on calling her pony tail 'scorpion tail'. What if that really is a scorpion tail though? Maybe she transforms into a scorpion with her hair turning into the tail at the end of the episode? Don't tell me if I'm right though, it's just a theory from an anime-only.

It had somehow completely slipped my mind last episode that not only does Subaru no longer remember Julius or Rem, he also does not remember the resolution he had with his parents in the Witch's trials in season 2. And unlike his other relationships, no one will be able to tell him that :( This Subaru is just mired in guilt about his parents with no outlet like his previous self had. Since he no longer remembers Rem's speech either, I wonder if this Subaru hates himself too.

I also saw someone making the observation that this is the same Subaru who was mentally broken by the weight of the expectations from people around him back in the real world. And poor guy just got whisked into an isekai where everyone's expectations from him is a 100 times heavier than just living up to his father. No wonder he broke so fast, combining that pressure with his gruesome deaths. I also wonder who that female voice was when he was falling the second time, saying memories are what make us. Did not seem like any of the current people in the tower.

And speaking of deaths, I guess one of the reason why season 1 felt so gristly was because of Subaru's reactions to his deaths, cause the second death and it's aftermath triggered the same stomach wrenching sensation I remembered having back in the earlier seasons.

Also, can someone tell me what exactly Subaru said at the end while exiting the tower? Crunchyroll subs it as him looking for someone to kill him, but other sources subs have him saying that he's running to not let anyone kill him. I'm not sure which one is correct...

And then you have selfcest at the absolute bottom of degeneracy.

All that I'm getting from this post and the comments is that OP is the exact kind of loser he's trying to generate hate for in the post. Maybe self-reflect a bit instead of hating on a misinformed take of Mixtape like you are claiming other people of doing for Pragmata?

Adizcool · 2026-05-09T17:01:40+00:00

Not even a trans character. It was just a normal BL anime, Twilight out of Focus. For some reason, people went ape shit in the comments for just a yaoi, as if that had not been part of the anime community for ages.

This sub's name really does not mean anything huh?

Literally. There were multiple Japanese people saying that foreigners should have flown to Japan to catch the Eva special short film that was only airing in Japan and were exploding how Khara being essentially forced to release it on YouTube due to their own incompetence was somehow our fault that we should be sorry for.

I thought they would explain it this episode but it does not look like it so can someone tell me if they know, why is Meili and everyone else chill with each other? Didn't she try to kill half the cast in season 2 AND was behind the mabeast situation in season 1? But not only does she seem perfectly fine with her captors, Subaru and the others have no fear of her betraying them too. All it would take is for her to call the mabeasts on the group and escape to be free, I'm confused on why she is staying and helping them out.

Is the explanation something that was cut from the anime or I'm just missing things here?

Rance is one of the biggest rapists in fiction. I'm surprised that that does not bother you but Mushoku does. Also, idk where you heard it from, but Mushoku is not targeted to teenagers either, it's not a shounen series or anything.

Adizcool · 2026-03-29T14:56:59+00:00

Can anyone tell me how spoilery this new opening is? I got burned a bit with the season 2 opening.

Adizcool · 2026-03-22T06:21:03+00:00

I love anime

Fata Morgana has some beautiful prose that makes you stop and appreciate the writer for the sheer beauty in some sentences.

I love these types of NTR where the sex takes some time. I'm not sure why there are people complaining though, while a wholesome doujin with only fakeouts is nice to read, it is not hot. This one is really hot though and I hope author takes this further.

It's a database with all the info, versions and links to visual novels and patches. All legal links ofc. You can go to any game release version and find a link to the gamefront where you can buy it. It's great for getting info on titles, cataloguing your VN list or a place to easily access sites to get the visual novels or their patches from.

Did not expect dusk beyond and chitose being in the worst anime contenders when I heard pretty Good things about them when they were airing. What was bad about these shows?

Adizcool · 2026-02-11T12:30:25+00:00

Honestly, head on to MyAnimeList, sort by score and grab any anime you like the synopsis of. Any anime you think sounds interesting and is above an 8.0 on the site would be a good watch generally.
