starting with The Saint's Magic Power Is Omnipotent
there's something very mid-90s about the character designs in this show
definitely gonna keep watching this show
UP NEXT
Dragon Goes House-Hunting
It's only been one episode but I love Letty
gonna watch Super Cub now
I can already tell this show is going to make me cry
Funimation logs me out more than any other website and I do not understand why
anyway, I'm gonna watch The World Ends With You
I haven't played the game (I own it on Switch) but I'm excited to see how this is
I only know the kids from Dream Drop Distance so I'm stoked on getting more context
the CG and compositing in this show is real good
people love to rag on Nomura's designs but they are all distinct and memorable
I feel like Nomura has a handle on street fashion designs and making them look more fantastical in the same way Araki takes high fashion and does the same thing
Fantastical street fashion
Fantastical high fashion
anyway, next show is Tokyo Revengers
damn, got called out
This show turned out to be NOT what I thought it was going to be and I'm very excited to see where it goes from here
NEXT SHOW
Joran The Princess of Snow And Blood
This show is beautiful
The thick line work is fantastic
me and who
last new show on my list, Oddtaxi
this OP slaps
the character designs in this show are good
RELATABLE
There's two types of people online
guaranteed you've never seen an anime gorilla doctor hype up Bruce Springsteen
hoo boy I'm feeling Oddtaxi
very excited to see where this goes
oh hell yeah, check out this cool-ass yeti
I am desperate to see Monoma get punched in the face

Also, he describes Walker as "Wants to create but is generally incurious about what other people think or feel" and I feel like could describe a certain type of person online no matter what kind of media they create
Like, the kind of people whose whole personality is making fun of or not liking things and that's their whole youtube channel or whatever.
One of the worst parts about nerd culture over the last 15-ish years is people caring or arguing or obsessing over the financial side of their favorite things
Not, like, "oh I hope this thing makes money so they can make more of this thing that I like"
I'm talking about like when weirdos start talking about whether Marvel or Avatar deserve the top spot of #1 movie
or whether the PS5 or Xbox Series X|S is selling better
or if Epic losing $300 million matters at all because it's a multibillion dollar company
I don't know if anyone else has this particular anxiety, but the early years of Twitter where social activism/justice basically boiled down to "Have you seen this fucked up thing? If you haven't, you are now and if you're not talking about it, you don't care and are a bad person"
