Sorry, but I have to say this. The rarest thing of them all happened, an anime youtuber actually mispronounced a character's name by trying to pronounce it too japanese XD Sunraku, from Shangri-la Frontier, is actually pronounced like the english word "Sun", because his surname, Hizutome, has the first character Hi that means Sun in english. So the correct pronounciation is Sun-Raku, or Sanraku if you want the japanese phoenetic.

Nothing has signaled to me that an author actually plays MMOs like making your protagonist's MMO avatar be a shirtless, shorts-wearing bird man. THAT is the kind of character I see in Limsa every day.

100 Girlfriends is a series for people who love all of the different types and flavors of women period. It’s why Rentaro is so likable - not only does he get it, but he also appreciates the friendship/personalities of women just as much if not more (female friendships aren’t a terrible runner-up prize for him!)

Usagi Drop hurts me so much. It could have been salvaged had the last chapter been "Look, you are going through kiddy love, and that is cute, but I am your dad and want you to be happy with someone your own age" instead of "If you still like me in a few years, sure, we can be lovers". It's just baffling. Like, whyyyyyyyyy I know this isn't a new take, but every time I am reminded of Usagi Drop, my heartache explodes and must be vented.

One correction on the returner show. I rewatched the first episode. And it wasn’t 3 years. It was almost 14 years. 3 years was how long until the monster they fought spawns. They fought it for 11 years after that. And he got sent back to before it all. It doesn’t change any of your points.

Been reading Shangri-La frontier for ages, it's a great story. There's definitely moments where the game world stuff feels messy, but it comes much closer to accurately capturing gamer culture than any other story I've seen. Sunraku's quest to take his talents for playing jank-ass trash games to conquer a mainstream MMO is a ton of fun, as is his regular diversions into other games he likes playing (because that's a thing that happens in this story, the MC just... decides to take a break and play something else from time to time, crazy concept I know). Also the closest thing the MC has to a love interest plays as a 10 foot tall armored behemoth with a greatsword, she'll be a real keeper if he ever figures out who he's talking to.

Any other anime would make a whole arc about her speaking up. However, with Shizuka her method of communication is never villified by the series. Rentarou even helps her by transcribing the book series into a TTS app, letting Shizuka communicate in a way that's clearer yet still comfortable for her. It's a brilliant way to handle that sort of situation and shows a very friendly and careful mindset.

Jumping to "autistic" is a stretch. From episodes already animated, we can see she can speak, and she stuttered there. Minor spoilers for the series, she is able to clearly sing, and she CAN speak, but she doesn't not out of a mental difference, but due to the fact that she had a stammer since birth and she was berated so much for it that she now has trauma that skyrockets her anxiety if she tries speaking. She's a traumatized character, not autistic, and it's really nice seeing a character that is able to live with their trauma. Honestly surprised I keep seeing people say Shizuka is nonverbal autistic (when the nonverbal has already been quashed), and ignoring the potential of Eiai having high-functioning autism.

The best tidbit about Shangri-La Frontier's plot hook is that at any time Sunraku could have the wolf's curse removed by a cleric. All the negatives he suffers for having it (can't wear armor on his arms, chest, or legs, enemies weaker than himself flee so no grinding on low level creatures) can be undone at any time, so he's only affected by the curse because he WANTS to be affected by it. Considering the kinds of games he normally enjoys playing, he's definitely a game masochist.

it goes a lot deeper than that because the staff are some of the same people who made the games featured in the show. the original manga is autobiographical about Mitsumi Misato and Amazuyu Tatsuki's experience working at Cocktail Soft, then the screenwriter for the anime worked for Leaf and wrote Kizuato and To Heart. most of the voice actors were also picked because they played an important character in a VN (the protags for Kanon, Clannad, and Fate are all in there).

Am I the only one who's been shocked and pleasantly surprised by how respectful a lot of this latest trash has been? First we had the vending machine anime that actually talked about periods in a respectful way, then we have a ton a weirdly respectful stuff towards women and disabled people in 100 Girlfriends, and now we have a horny pig anime that calls out the slave girl trope and doesn't have a possesive protag, even if he's a total creep...

I love the part in kingdoms of ruin where someone says "these really are the kingdoms of ruin" and the protagonist cuts someone's face off and wears it like a mask and laughs like the joker (yes all these things happen all in the same episode)

I’m so sad about how botched the release of Undead Unluck has been. It is such a fantastic series, and it just gets better the deeper into the world building you get. And the anime is great too! It’s release has just be an absolute mess.

totally never happened *cough* before! *cough* jjba p6 *cough*

100 girlfriends is one of the greatest animes ever. The references and the modern humor is so good and perfect. I have never laughed so hard in a long time. A show where the girls are enjoying themselves and the main character is a chad.

I have been for you to talk about the 100 Girlfriends for years! Finally someone who understands true art!

I laughed way too fu(king hard at professional murder pedo! LMFAO God that was a great line! I literally almost spit out my coffee!!!! 😂❤

I need to tell a story of my hatred for "Berserk of GLUTTONY". One time i i recomended my friend to read Berseark and he got to shop and bought 1 volume. Next day he asked me why did i recommend him and edgy isekai, i was confused at first and told him Beseark is not an isekai, he then started explaining the plot what he read so far and i told him again thats not it and then pulled it out of his bag and showed me. After that i borrowed him my first collection of Beseark volumes for reading and bought from him that stupid volume which i promptly ducted taped and wrote with marker "DO NOT EVER READ IT". I think "Beserk of GLUTTONY" is one of the reasons why there arent more Beseark fans out there and did more damage (they should sue publisher of **** of GLUTTONY for lost revenue and blatant copyright).

I would definitely rage quit the MMO in A Certain Guy's Playthrough if the devs seemingly go out of their ways to nerf everyone but shower the titular Cerain Guy with special treatments

The dart board for choosing the isekai plot was GOLD!!

Undead Unluck's manga is amazing, I love how it transitions from comedy to more serious over time

Having Josh show up to rate a MMORPG anime was brilliant!

1200 a month is cheap for an alley in Vancouver. You must have been living there for a while.

Honestly, I was surprised that 100 Girlfriends wasn't trash. It makes fun of harem anime, while actually taking the concept seriously, and presenting a strangely authentic, collaborative, and non-toxic complex of relationships.

I love Ragna Crimson, the dynamic between the main characters, cunny edgy genius and all powerful edgelord, is amazing!

That hotel Transylvania edit fit way to well Edit: Undead Unluck is thrash FIRE. The What if deadpool could use his body parts as projectiles and blood sorcery that is Undead and the “my life was terrible till i met you” and “i want to help people who were kind to me” tragedy of Unluck is kinda awsome. Its a better love story than i would have thought, a great premise with some serious twists and some hilariously dumb over the top humor. To use a Geoffism, i’d give it 4 newer dumpsters filled with odd fluids, ecchi manga and clothed but sexy body pillows that are somehow burning way too hot.

Can concur, undead unluck bangs way too hard, worldbuilding is intriguing, action never disappoints, it gets surprisingly poignant at times where my eyes teared up a bit.

@@triggerfairy4070 No? I just like peak fiction when I see it, and 100 girlfriends comes close. If you don't jive with the comedy of the series, then that's understandable, but to label it as self-aware "crap" is a massive slight against good writing.

Ooh thanks for the info on 100 girlfriends. I dropped it after episode 1 because it felt like it couldn't decide whether it wanted to be garbage trash or trash with a diamond in the rough. Good to know it kinddddd of picked a lane and did it well

Dropping it definitely was a mistake, you have to pick it back up. The manga has a chokehold on me and has become one of my comfort series.

This is my first time seeing your content and it was a little intimidated clicking on a 40min video but you are hilarious and that was a very entertaining 40mins that felt like 10. One video, one sub. Keep up the good work.
