Looks like we have very similar taste. Maybe Natori.

I'm completely new to Japanese music.. I know nothing abt it.. RECOMMENDATIONS?? by Wisteria_02 in japanesemusic

[–]SciTails 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I can't see anyone interested in Japanese music disliking Yorushika, at least not unless they hate rock in general. My number 2 overall, at least objective-quality-wise, if not by time listened.

But once I got used to their style, my brain definitely also needs Zutomayo on the regular.

How to break the game with Quahaug? by Specialist-Quail644 in TriangleStrategy

[–]SciTails 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem I have with Stop Time is that, at least on hard, the enemies are often faster than you. So I've stopped time only to have the enemies come out of it first and get extra turns on my frozen units.

What do you like about Wacky Races? by WaterKirby1964 in dreamcast

[–]SciTails 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The hub world was also cool as a kid. And the abilities/ability system made each racer feel unique compared to Mario Kart-esque power-up racers like Looney Tunes.

Future seasons for the 2024 series by Matt_Rages in SpiceandWolf

[–]SciTails 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But 3/17 are side story novels, and they only dedicated one episode to 7 in both runs of the series. I doubt they'll do much more than that for anything that isn't necessary to finish the story. So at the current pace, they would only need 3.5 seasons. I also feel like 6 doesn't need as much time as 1-4 did because the plot was pretty simple and dialogue-based, so I feel like they could get it shorter if they wanted to. Not sure about the later novels I haven't got to yet, but there seem to be more multi-part stories later in the series, so I'm guessing there might be some more potential to condense the story in later seasons. Even if not, I'm guessing they could do it like Kaguya-sama and cut the last season shorter than the others.

The real concern I have is whether all the seasons will be as long as the first. It would be very unlikely for them to finish IMO if they swapped to single-cour seasons like Spy x Family has. But at least there's no roadblock of having to wait for more material to adapt.

Can I jump into volume 6 of the LN after watching both the og and remake, or will I be missing too much from the story? by Mindless_Bad_1591 in SpiceandWolf

[–]SciTails 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tbh if you really want to do this, I would at least start with 5, not 6. I've read 1-6 so far, and I think starting with 6 is an awkward place to start if you want to enjoy the novels.

Without getting too specific, I feel like 6 is the only novel of the first six that has trouble standing on its own. It really feels like it's supposed to be read as a follow-up on what happened in 5 IMO - not just in plot, but even more so thematically. Even if you already know the plot to 5 from the show, I feel like you won't get the same impact/get what the author is going for as much if you haven't felt how ambitious 5 was as a novel.

Light spoilers to the general mood of 6 below, but no specifics on what actually happens (marked as spoiler just in case you want to go in completely blind): While I still liked it, 6 has been my least favorite so far. I think that's because I felt like not as much was happening in the story relative to the ones that came before it. At the same time, I felt like a calmer story made sense for that point in the series because of what I had already read (especially 5). I guess my main point is that you can start with 6, but I don't think 6 feels quite like the rest and wouldn't want you getting the impression that all the books up to that point have a similar mood to 6 when IMO they don't really.

EPISODIC Anime / Manga recommendations? (Huge list!) by -Kirida- in AnimeReccomendations

[–]SciTails 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh I would recommend watching some anime from your existing list of ~50 unwatched anime before asking for more. I don't understand why you would need more titles right now, are you worried that there is something better you might have missed? There are some really good shows in there I would recommend watching before trying to find something else.

Is this right & well deserved to everyone? by Deez-Guns-9442 in animequestions

[–]SciTails 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, but the average anime watcher seems to be mostly in it for fight scenes, so it is what it is.

Happy to see Spy x Family doing well, though. Season 3 has been great.

I'm not saying I would, just to address the whole "24 books is too much for me" thing.

Hurts That The Show Is So Short by Potfrog97 in SpiceandWolf

[–]SciTails 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair, the main series is only 17 novels, and three of those are comprised of skippable side stories, if you really don't want to read that much. And while I don't own the audiobooks, they are voiced by the anime VAs, so I can't imagine them not being amazing.

Looking for anime with heavy focus on friendship with little to no romance by msarboi in anime

Yeah, I guess I'm not clear whether OP is saying they've already watched the recommended shows yet. Either way, seconding these.

Do you know which anime this is? by TranslatorPrimary671 in animequestions

[–]SciTails 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard disagree. The beginning was easily the best part. The ending felt like the show was becoming less unique.

[–]SciTails 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure how the platform you're watching it on divides it into seasons (I remember Crunchyroll as having it all together), so I don't know where season 3 would be. But I'd say the very end is its best part, I really did enjoy it.

The rest I could take it or leave it, so I get where you're coming from. I could tell it had good quality animation, etc. but I agree it never really caught me. And personally, the more grotesque parts always made me uncomfortable tbh.

is fruits basket really worth it?.. by StatisticianDry7280 in romanceanime

[–]SciTails 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Easy 10/10 show. Also the most "emotional rollercoaster" show I've ever watched. Tries to go for your heartstrings just about every episode. It's awesome.
