A Putin PR person isn't an anime dictator. There's literally an entire book on the topic of anime dictators. It's not that hard to find a real dictator.

The anime is garbage. And not even bad garbage. It's utterly mediocre garbage. Stick to the web game if that's you cup of tear, or just pictures of ship girls if it's not.


IIRC the game is all RNG, so I just stick to pictures and WoWs mods.

What the fuck is going on in this thread now....
I see discussion about Kancolle, and I get excited cause yay time to post best shipfu(s) but instead it's the 'lol ur waifu is ded' we've been getting for a while now.

But yeah, the Kancolle anime is trash. If you want to just watch clips of it on youtube, since they'll give you access to all the memes without having to sit through the whole thing. Hopefully the film is actually good.

On to current anime...

Konosuba remains great

So what do you have in store for us KyoAni? Oooh, a house visit ep? Oooh more Kanna and her friend! Oh man this'll be so cute! I...

Well, I finished series one of Log Horizon. I really enjoyed it.

While the central conceit of being trapped in a video game is well worn at this point, Log Horizon is still an interesting show for several reasons. I think the heart of it is the relationship between the main characters and the world around them. Heroes in a great deal of fiction tend to be outsiders living outside the system, or struggling against it, because this gives a natural arc for their story to follow. Log Horizon is different in that a significant proportion of it's main characters are the system, because at it's core this is a series about governance. The goal of the protagonists is not to defeat the a big bad enemy without or within, but to construct a functioning society. Of course, there are enemies to be defeated, but they are often only ciphers for some aspect of statesmanship; law enforcement, administration, economics, and so on. Due to the nature of the setting (Inside an MMO), a lot of the characters are more or less invincible on the field of battle. Thus, the most important action takes place on the diplomatic stage. This makes it all sound rather heavy going, but rest assured that it's not. There's a real joie de vivre to the whole experience, mostly expressed in the form of really silly jokes and the show making fun of itself. It's fundamentally optimistic about humans and what we can achieve if we work together, which is not a common attitude in this kind of fiction. All the characters are also immensely likeable and made me want to spend time with them.

Overall, I'd rate this series an 8/10.

The fact that he has Jotaro's voice makes it so much better

Bad habit of the creator apparently.
Have to say it was funny to see people reacting to it with having prior knowledge of events from mango. Granted I was somewhat surprised they included those arcs.

Pure and wholesome slice of life about dragoness, unassuming office worked, their adopted dragon daughter and ever increasing circle of friends and acquintances.

Honestly I wasn't that shocked by it since the other notable anime based on a work by the same creator, "I can't understand what my husband is saying", ends each episode with the explicit statement that the two main characters went on to have lots and lots of sex. The yuri levels here are nowhere near as shocking as it was seeing that as the ending of an episode when I watched it for the first time.
