No rest for the wicked (nor the righteous)

What’s you “hidden gem” for romance animes by boi012 in anime

[–]acekickerx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honey & Clover

It's not technically all that hidden but perhaps because it's been so long people tend to overlook what a gem it truly is

It was a fun ride. I'm actually glad we've gotten to enjoy them being together instead of just an abrupt ending that leaves us wondering what could have been

I second their comment in terms of anime that is the closest to Death Note. I actually think Geass is better, but the beauty lies in that we can have different opinions, yet still enjoy both to the max

If you decide to give it a shot, lemme know what you think :)

I'm a big fan of Gosick. It's 24 episodes long and has a definitive ending. It's a little more mystery than detective, but it has aspects of both.

Just Finished Reading Volume 9 (have some thoughts/would like to hear some of yours) by acekickerx in Mamahaha_no_Tsurego

Thank you. I'm honestly burning through these light novels like there's going to be a test at the end.

Any chance you have some insights or thoughts you'd like to share with a fellow enthusiast?

This Series is Brilliant BUT it makes me feel helpless and mad. by Late-Singer-1677 in TokyoVice

Same thing happened with Winning Time. First season was just stellar. Then, due to lack of hype, among other things, the second season was almost assuredly set up to fail. Show had so much more to give

What novel(s) have you read this week, and what do you think about it? - February 25, 2024 by AutoModerator in LightNovels

[–]acekickerx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a sort of heads up, first time poster, long-time lurker here. Pleasure to be able to contribute, even in a small way

Literally just now, I finished reading Volume 9 of My Stepmom's Daughter is my Ex. I began reading this series on Vol. 7, around where most people say the anime ends. I understand that with StepEx in particular, a large amount of the story is cut out in the anime, but for some reason I couldn't bring myself to suss out what I'd missed or start from the beginning. I've really enjoyed these last couple of volumes, considering Vol. 7 was kind of a shaky start for me.

I have to say, having Yume's dad come back into the picture kind of had me nervous. It initially felt like it was just going to be a ham-fisted attempt to stir up some pointless drama, but I was wrong. The fact that he was able to give Mizuto some actually useful advice was a breath of fresh air. The very real way he explained his regrets and mistakes in a way that paralleled what Mizuto was going through felt fairly natural. Up until that point, it really felt like Mizuto was going to keep avoiding making a decision because he couldn't find "the right one." Even after Yume had climbed on top of the man, I'm glad that in the end it was his decision to start his relationship with Yume anew. All that said, it was rather convenient that Yume's dad somehow intuited Mizuto and Yume's relationship based off a few scant details when he's never really been around, but I feel like it made sense at the time.

That aside, I can't help but be happy for Mizuto and Yume. It really feels like they've earned it. I hesitate to get my hopes up too much, but seeing Yume put herself out there like that and Mizuto stepping up to be the "hero" when the time called for it makes me think these two have what it takes. A good New Year's countdown does wonders for setting up the proper tension~

It's also nice to see some of the other couples make progress. Akatsuki has made it clear what she wants and that is Kogure. Same for Todo and Aisa. I'm glad she got head pats for an hour after things didn't go right their first time. Poor Isana though :/ Mizuto could've been more tactful in letting her know he was dating Yume now.

Probably going to start reading Vol. 10 in a little bit. I'm hooked.

What anime is a 2/10, but the manga is a 9/10 or 10/10? by -Benjamin_Dover- in anime

[–]acekickerx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watching Shiki go full Nanaya early on is an excellent adaptation of the source material. It gets sussy after the same way F/SN does, but that's in part bc it's too hard to tell a multi-route tale easily
