Only Yesterday has a rating of 7.5 online. I don't know why. It's criminally underrated. Vijy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vijy Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 There are some excellent (albeit more art-y) anime airing this season: Ranking of Kings and Tales of the Heike Clan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vijy Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 this season has been less stellar than I originally expected. the above two series (heike and ranking of kings) are both amazing, though. I6MTW 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vijy Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 (edited) Took me a while to do it, but I finished rewatching "The Promised Neverland" (season 1). Although I don't agree with assessments that call it ATG or anime-of-the-year, it was undoubtedly an excellent series: the camera angles and direction in particular are quite outstanding.

Vijy Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 this season (winter 2022) has been mixed. Demon Slayer did, however, finish its best arc and Ranking of Kings is very good. My Dress-Up Darling has some appealing characters, and so does Akebi's Sailor Uniform. but that's about it apart from Sabikui Bisco, which is at least entertaining.

Vijy Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Spring 2021 anime has at least 4 series that have left a strong positive impact on me so far: Â Summer time rendering: A mystery/thriller that is reminiscent of Re: Zero Kaguya-sama season 3: the wackiness, comedy, and warmth has been further enhanced Spy x Family: Deftly merges romance, comedy, family, drama, spy, action into a complete package Ya boy Kongming! - somehow pulls off a combo of tribute to "Romance of three Kingdoms" with music and songs in modern era. Â and there are 5-6 other shows that are really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superb show, as you wrote! Â I still think Japanese animation (anime) tackles a slightly more broader/deeper array of topics than their US counterparts, but US animation is witnessing a massive resurgence. Â @Lone Wolf Not as remarkable as Arcane, but The Legend of Vox Machina (Amazon Prime) is another enjoyable watch. Lone Wolf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vijy Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 watching 4-5 very good shows this season, but some of the more popular ones (e.g., komi-san S2 & shield hero S2) have been disappointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
