Hi everybody! It is time once again for a weekly general thread! This is the place for all your anime-related thoughts that you don’t want to make a whole post about. Some thought-provoking examples may include:
- Is it just me or did Shield Hero peak during the Spirit Turtle arc?
- Why can’t all the other streaming services have players as nice as HiDive?
- I am loving Spy X Family, would Domestic Girlfriend be another good, family-centered show to follow up with?

That’s an interesting idea to switch from sub to dub. I might have to try that sometime.
I especially recommend it for comedies. I sometimes rewatch old shows with the dub instead for variety as well. It can be amusing to find recognizable voices from games and things. e.g. I rewatched Scrapped Princess earlier this year and when one particular character showed up, I was like “That’s Welkin!” (from Valkyria Chronicles) – Dave Wittenberg voiced them both in the English version.
I stayed at a ryokan in Ikebukuro and right down the street was a bar that had live penguins in the bar. So, it was like an aquarium mixed with a bar. I didn’t actually stop by and try anything, but thought it was really random. Here, I found an article about it!
Thanks for the link! I’m not quite sure what to make of that. I guess it’s kind of like a cat cafe, but more… out there?
