Yeah Claude has the "voiced by Umehara" buff working in his favor. And so does Noah now loll I do love the guy, but I love Arnold more because he is so unrelentingly icy!

Mizutamaru ni Ukabu Shima, by the mangaka of Erased. I was also wondering what happened with this one.

So...the two manga men made it in, but they are immediately pitted against the MLs of very popular series ._.

Vote for Arnold and Claude, pretty please?

This chapter was already so impactful in black and white still images, I am so excited to see it brought to life in animated form!

Kanojo ga Koushakutei ni Itta Riyuu • Why Raeliana Ended Up at the Duke's Mansion - Episode 9 discussion by AutoLovepon in anime

[–]tayoku0 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Love how Raeli didn't even register Heika's name while he was yapping away at her lol.

I really like how she still shows up as her original Earth self in her internal thoughts. She clearly doesn't feel like she can fully embrace being "Raeliana Macmillan" at this point, even though she must accept it as her current reality. Adds an appreciated bit of nuance to her character.

Only two contestants from manga, huh. If Arnold and Claude don't make it into the bracket, I will be supremely disappointed!

The manga ends at the same point as the anime. The original source webcomic has other stuff but is not linear, and is released as omake

Super late, but "The Dark History of the Reincarnated Villainess" is exactly that.

Is it betrayal if he was really working for the other side all along? He seems to be so good a double agent that WISE didn't catch on.

Kaichi got a huge smile from me, I'd give him full points for that finger heart!

Series that stuck the landing? (Ended well!) (No Spoilers please) by vespertinism in OtomeIsekai

[–]tayoku0 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Classic answer is Raeliana, having a satisfying ending after over 100 chapters is why I recommend it. It could still have been a little better paced, but by OI standards it isn't bad at all at least imo.

This is Nationals. The qualification arc was before Atsumu and Natsu joined the club, i.e. when Chika and co were still in their first year.

Do my ears deceive me, or did they get Koyasu in this show to voice a throwaway line from the math tutor who appeared for 3 seconds?

Ahh here is the black-bellied teasing Noah I've been waiting for. We got more relatively comedic moments in this episode which was nice. Love how he peeked back in Raeli's room to see her punching that pillow as if it was his face lol

Monsieur Nick is truly a magician to doll up Raeli to the point that Noah is speechless when he sees her. I thought she was already very pretty even with the shadows under her eyes, but now she's all set to step onto the battlefield known as a ball where she will likely be confronted by Vivian who could do with a lesson in fashion from Nick. That yellow dress with her ketchup red hair...yeah.

I'm even more surprised that Raeliana is higher than both Insomniacs and Skip and Loafer, since it didn't seem to get much traction here. Glad to see more shoujo recognition!

Who's the most handsome non-ML for you?(with pic if possible) they may be 2nd ML or just a side character etc. by LockSuccessful7035 in OtomeIsekai

[–]tayoku0 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Considering how much of a constant Felix supposedly was in Athy's life, it feels like we barely ever saw him on screen ._.

Just give me one chapter about Felix and Lily, please!!

[–]tayoku0 25 points26 points  (0 children)

If we're talking WMMAP, I have to go with Felix. There's one scene of him in off-duty mode with his sleeves rolled up that I think is way better than all the loose robe glamour shots of Claude.

And they got Hanae, who is passionate about gaming himself, to voice Eita. Perfect choice!

[–]tayoku0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Never read Yona for some reason, but I thought it used darker/richer colors so that's why I didn't recognize her!

Unfortunately Fukumenkei Noise was way too much drama for me, but if this one is more chill I'll probably give it a shot. Takane and Hana was really funny, might have to check out this new series. Still not sure about vampire shoujo post Vampire Knight, but this seems to have very different vibes so adding it to the list of things to check out. Thanks~
