Eatsuki

I will say the episode this past week was much more serious than past weeks, and that might be part of it. Less of Kazuya being a scumbag and more just kind of wholesome. I’m sure it will get back to the usual “ugh” soon.

I think the first half of this show was really strong, but I feel a bit disappointed by the latter half.

This is where I am. The first few episodes were so strong, and I was genuinely excited to see where it went. Then it went to filler episodes where you would think with all the care and affection she was being shown, and the things she was learning, she’d become stronger and more her own person.

I really feel like if the Usubas start pressuring her to use her power for evil, as it stands now she’d do it and hope that someone would come save her. That’s pretty disappointing to be honest.

I’ll finish the show, but with the lack of development, it makes me wonder if the source material is the same and Miyo will just be a low self esteem damsel in distress waiting for Kudo to come make her happy. Not sure I’m interested in continuing if that’s the case.

Please tell me that the 2nd cours is starting up right away? That was so much of a trolly cliffhanger.

I’m excited to see Helck’s backstory and more of their journey home.

I even know someone who smokes menthols because he said it makes people less likely to bum cigarettes off of him.

That’s why I switched to menthols back when I smoked. That, and I just liked them more. I didn’t like the ultra menthol ones like Kools or Benson & Hedges, but Marlboro Milds were just about perfect, and the amount of “Oh…those are menthol? Nevermind” was the cherry on top.

Is anyone else getting possible demon lord vibes from Patrick? There was a lot of focus this episode on him being so impressed with Yumiella being open and owning the “bad” things about herself, and how he went to great pains to hide his own flaws. IIRC the game didn’t really focus on Yumiella too much, so maybe the two of them teamed up/why she was the hidden boss. Just something that occurred to me while watching.

Wait, so you mean the absurdist comedy movie made by the guy that made Beavis and Butthead doesn’t go deep into the causes of the issues experienced nor tackles potential solutions?

Went into this show completely blind, and have to say it’s one of my favorites this season. Early on candidate for AOTS for me. Once the show is complete I may have to pick up the source material, as I hear it is also amazing.

It shows up at my local grocery store every now and then for the normal price. They still have the tag for it, with all the rest of the knock offs, but it does sell out quick when it comes in. I snagged a bottle a month or so ago, as none of the replacements scratch the same itch and my kids only like the real stuff.

Last year I think. The lead singer has started a new project called Q.I.S (Queens in Sweaters) with 3 songs out so far, plus she wrote stuff for halca and performed some with Kana Boon. Miku (the drummer) is doing some DJ sets and playing drums with some other bands. The bassist seems to be taking a break for now and hasn’t been up to much.

Was this supposed to be 1 or 2 cours? Since Summer is ending, and Fall shows are going to take this spot, I can see why they’d just put it on hold until they’re ready. Lots of shows have been doing that lately (Nier, Misfit of Demon Academy, Ayakashi Triangle off the top of my head.)

I feel bad because the show started really strong, but the repeated delays caused it to lose a ton of steam. I may try the live action movie on Netflix to see where the story goes/see if it’s worth it to pick the anime back up when it comes back.
