You mentioned with Apothacary Dairies that the hook is the characters in many ways, and I agree, but it’s also, just like Frieran, just a high quality show in every way imo. The writing, the plot, the animation, the music, the character/scene design, etc. But the one thing that I think is the real stand out to me is the VA work, especially Aoi Yuki as Maomao. I really feel like she’s going to win tons of awards for her work as the character. She does such a great job conveying so many different emotions and range, and really sells it in the scenes where she’s trying to just stay quiet and invisible and out of danger, and the scenes where she can’t control herself and takes over a scene and her voice drops and it’s just soooo goood.

Garnt is right about Apocathery Diaries being like an ancient korean/chinese soap opera. Specifically Jewel in the Palace aka Dae Jang Geum, also about a palace maid who became a physician, who is also romantically involved with a high ranking official. 90s Asian kids will know this one.

@forotherpurpose3671

6 ай бұрын

Ahh yes, Jewel in The Palace. This jogs my memories. It's the first Korean drama I watched with my mom every afternoon when I was in elementary school. Even with the dub version, I was too young to understand the story. I got lost in the plotline, I didn't get the politics, I never laughed during the comedy part, but it always hyped me up when Dae Jang Geum (MC) presents her innovative-delicious foods in front of the Emperor and Empress, beating her rivals in the process. I used to look forward to it everyday. My mom sometimes giggled during the romantic scene, but I didn't get it. The thing that really stick with me until today though, is when Jang Geum hit the lowest point in the middle part of the story. It was so heart wrenching, my mom and I cried for weeks. The rest of the story didn't cheer me up like it did before (even if it does have some hype moments), but Jang Geum, being the hopeful person that she is, continue to persist no matter what kind of shit life throws at her. The ending is a relatively a happy ending (I think), or maybe I missed the bittersweet part. I thought it's a complex story, cause I remember I had a mix feelings when the bad guy was finally defeated; it's the first story that made me feel this way. Apothecary Diaries does remind me a lot with Jewel in the Palace. It has it all; drama, mystery, suspense, politics, palace harem, food, medicine, comedy, romance. The big differences would be the MC's respective personality, and I think the dramatic aspect in JITP hits harder compared to AD (it's more angsty). But both are beautifully written complex story. Now that I'm an adult and could appreciate the complexity of AD, I'm gonna give JITP a retry. It's been awhile. You guys should watch Jewel in the Palace too if you haven't already, it's really a solid show!

@FrozFroz, "A palace maid who became a physician" Are you hinting at "The Imperial Doctress"? That was the first show that I thought of when I read the synopsis for Apothecary Diaries

I think an important thing to keep in mind is that Frieren isn't rated "the best anime ever made" it is "the highest rated anime." And i don't think it's much of a surprise having it up there in that context. It is a well polished show, with fun and interesting character dynamics, a plot interesting enough to keep you engaged, and beautiful animation. A well polished package with very few blemishes is exactly what i would expect to place high since if everyone says "Yeah its 9/10". That versus shows with bigger ups and downs. Is Lord of the Rings the best movie ever made? Probably not, but how well it is executed raises it to the top. I think Frieren reaches a similar niche.

@vtgare

Agreed, I think what also sets it apart is that no matter what anime someone's into, or if they're into anime at all, you can recommend it to them and chances are they're going to enjoy it. For example I know many people who stopped watching anime because they grew out of "anime bullshit", Frieren has none of it and it got them back into anime. That's what a number 1 rated show is supposed to be and why FMAB is rated so highly as well.

Saying Lord of the rings (whichever one) is the greatest movie ever made isnt a hot take that’s a respectable greatest of all time

100 kanojo is essentially what harem fans have been wishing for, just for chadtarou himself.

EiS and 100 girlfriends has the same energy just mirrored. One gives zero fucks for his harem and the other gives all the fucks for his. Both writers said "ill use every trope but turn it up to 200%"

Apocathery throwing hands with the big boys. Hell yeah

Frieren already in my top 5 of all time. Absolutely gorgeous, emotional, fights with Stark are choreographed perfectly, *the* scene (if you’ve seen it you know which one I’m talking about) was so hype without even needing crazy action, the characters are all so memorable and even side characters have good writing. What a masterpiece.

I haven't finished Apothecary Diaries because of post-secondary school. But it reminded me of how politics not only has a place in fiction (which I knew already) but it's draw. Some works of fiction can't stick the landing on the drama that goes into that aspect of a story, but when it does it drives an emotional tie to the setting and worldbuilding and how it affects the characters. Such as geopolitics and how characters will be perceived from different places and how they were raised, the bureaucracy and how it will annoy characters and create obstacles, or how economics work in different parts of a world (capitalism, imperialism, communism, nomadism, etc.). Delicious tea, as Garnt said.

Blacksmith song scene elevated Shangri-La Frontier for me a lot. Could probably write a full-blown essay on why that was so good. A big thing about Shangri-La Frontier is that [this is a relatively early spoiler but I'll put it below the break anyway] . . . . . . the game's NPCs die permanently if killed. And it's kinda weird to call that "stakes," because to Sunraku, Emul and Vysache and the rest are fictional characters from a video game. If they die, it's just a story beat that he probably doesn't really care about. To the audience, however, Sunraku is equally fictional (duh). The narrative stakes from our perspective are no different between the NPCs getting killed and Sunraku getting mugged on the street between play sessions. With Sunraku choosing to stand there in silence and watch as Vysache works, the blacksmith song scene kind of shows Sunraku has been brought onto our level of narrative investment, when you juxtapose it with the early scene of him skipping SLF's intro cutscene, or the way he acts with respect to the kusoge that he's used to playing. It's no longer just about proving how much of a Gamer(tm) he is. You can sort of see a similar arc in--uh, I forget her name--the lady from the PVP guild, when it comes out that she's genuinely invested in the backstory behind one of the big bosses she and Sunraku are going off to fight. Also, the song is a banger.

My brother I share exactly the same opinions 100 everything you said is perfection More slept on show available for free on Ani One Asia yt channel The witch and her family situation The 4 brothers I don't remember the name but it's about these 4 brothers who became orphans and now they are helping each other be a family and cope with this new situation of growing up orphans Actually a very cute and wholesome show for the most part although inevitably sad for some moments

Did you notice in the OP they used like morse code because it's a show about trying to communicate with the aliens and trying to reach something somewhere far away If you played Pokémon that op is as beautiful as the XY psychic gym in kalos in the city of the big pink solar clock that unlocks the megastones

The only thing I disagree SHY gets elevated to S by that Russia orphanage arc To me that is borderline peak fiction hit me almost as hard as Chimera ant ending which muse Asia also aired not so far in time compared to Shy And obviously Chimera ant is better but the fact that I feel like I can put both in the same sentence to me that's evidence Shy is S Or maybe it's just me because I also grew up with a single mom like Pesha the alcoholic russian hero luckily my mom is healthy and well

@@tpsam ​ Nah I used the "high seas" streaming sites. I know which anime you mean but have only watched the first couple episodes of both (Last season had too much anime bruh) The beeps and boops are one of the reasons I loved the OP. Sadly its not actually morse code. And yeah that last arc was pretty S-tier, overall I'd still have to give the show an A tho - hopefully the 2nd season manages to deliver more on that level.

I felt the same way with Overtake, definitely my surprise anime the past season.

is Garnt back in Tailand? I'm happy that he can freely travel now which means that the boys's schedule must not be as tight rn as the previous years.

I think JJK is good but a little overhyped. I don't like that it tries to be overly complex, but then explain that complexity, yet it explains it in a way that doesn't make sense at least without further research. Characters are cool and all, but I also feel like they weren't developed enough for you to really care when they died/got injured. Of course there was the whole thing with the animators. I'll give them props for still completing the season, but I think a lot of the later fights although there was great choreography, the animation just wasn't that clean/refined. I would put it high A tier, but when I think more about the amount of action and stuff that happened this season, it is an S.

I mean its overhyped a lot and carried by the animation, If people actually pay attention to its the power system its broken considering its based on emotions in how a person can get stronger with cursed energy, you then have the "explain/reveal" powers on top of that which makes them stronger (this is such a dumb way to give an excuse for a trope, and there are no reason behind it). Geto turning evil from an easy dilemma where it can be solved by taking out the whole time vessel association, which would have then made him a more morally grey character and a pragmatic solver. Instead Geto gets taken over by kenjaku offscreen after the jjk Movie 0 which is cheap and coincidental, etc. The ability of Geto/Kenjaku's maximum: Uzumaki got retconned to be a plot device in S2 when in the movie 0 it was stated/shown to be a destructive attack. This means Kenjaku could have at any point just have absorbed Mahito, even right after sealing Gojo and initiate the culling earlier. Not to mention how he could have abused the crap out of stealing abilites from grade 1+ cursed spirits, etc.

Personally I think you made a solid choice. Maybe it helped it had a clear ending, but it was one of the most satisfying stories for me this season.

dude when will you cover one of those manhwa you love

Dead mount death play was an isekai I actually enjoyed. Kinda crazy the only ones I’ve enjoyed are that and iruma kun

NOOOOOO Migi & Dali is so good. It gets really crazy and also really touching later on. it is easily one of the most underrated gems of any season.

I tried to get into Shangri-la(?) multiple times, but i sadly just couldn't. A lot of the games aspects, and how the MC interacts with them completely break my immersion

i wish i knew how to get out that i appreciate the animators. That they should not feel underappreciated and should stand proud and stay strong. and i hope they get breaks and rest and stay in good health.

garnt talking about kdrama period pieces with bad SEA dubs is such a SEA experience that is not talked about but is so fucking real

I binged 14 episodes of Apothecary Diaries in a day. Saw next episode comes out in 2 days(so today). After that went to google and searched up shows like Apothecary diaries. Within 2 days I have completed Snow white with the red hair and Raven of the inner palace. What do I do now?

Come to think of it, when did My Daemon air last year? I feel like nobody talked about it

100 girlfriend is jsut my favorite manga of all time, period

Pluto's ending was fine. It may have seemed rushed or sudden, but that's mainly because it's only based off a single arc in the overall astro boy story. Of course it will feel like there's more to the story afterward. There's further adventures for Atom, but Gesicht and Pluto's stories have come to a conclusion.

Shy is a tough one. I honestly kind of had to just muscle through the first 2/3 of it, and almost dropped it. But it eventually hits its stride in the last 4 episodes, and it's actually quite good. It made me look forward to part 2, which I originally had no interest in before then. I would say the first 8 episodes are like a C, but the latter ones are an A for sure. If you're willing to sit through the slow start, I think it's worth it.

You hit the nail on the head with Frieren. At first it seems like a Violet Evergarden type show, of a girl discovering her emotions, but really Frieren has always been a really kind girl who genuinely cares for her friends. With her view on time itself though, it's just that human lives are too fleeting to get too emotionally attached. And that's now her one regret.

Kingdoms of ruin is so fucking slept on as THE "the room" of anime. It's so cringeworthy that it becomes good again. The characters are in no way believable or consistent in any way and the MC is so unhinged that the entire show becomes a weird amalgam of both predictability and surprise. The pacing is also all over the place. Me and my mate had a blast watching it

Returners magic manhwa is good enough to get adaptation. Enjoyed it more than solo levelling.

Idk if it’s because of the lighting but Garnt looks really weary and tired, his eyebags seems bigger and darker than usual

I agree with his first reaction to shy it started slow. You don’t get invested into the main character and her damn shyness. And even I wasn’t really interested on finishing the anime but I had nothing else to watch at the end and watched the last 3 episodes. And let me tell you those last 3 episodes slapped harder than will smith. They were emotional. With actual I’m sure most of those watching at least had one tear in their eyes and you come to realize that this story is more chaotic than what anyone realizes. Frankly if why would have been like that from the start it would have hold way more people and overall would have been a way more enjoyable anime. At first I was like really a season 2 got announced but now I’m actually looking forward to what they have stored in season 2

As someone who is caught up with the manga, the last 3 episodes of season 1 are just the beginning. Also, I recommend checking out the manga if you want to see some absolute eye candy. The anime's visuals are pretty good, but they don't hold a candle to the manga. It has some of the best art I've ever seen in a manga.

Undead Girl Murder Farce has the same director as Kaguya Sama

a lot of people brushed off buta reba (pig isekai) as another trash isekai with another trash gimmick. though after watching through it, it slowly focuses on the world building aspect of it instead of focusing on the MC. it slowly leaves you bits and pieces that the world the girl lives in is actually pretty dark/shady aspects to it and its actually pretty thought out. its only really held back by its animation, and the lack of hook it gives to the viewers. (i could see it being put at high C near the 'A Returner's Magic Should Be Special' since they both have the same flaws where they both lack the 'hook' that really makes the anime stands out) other anime that stood out for me this season that wasn't in the list are - Tearmoon Empire (A) - I'm in Love with the Villainess (B) - The Vexations of a Shut-In Vampire Princess (B) and the continuation of - dark gathering (A) - helck (B) - zom100 (A)

Even though protocol rain have bad gameplay cg, the story and settings are as much believable than you think. MC had a tragic story involving his father's accident which leads to his father's death and his younger sister's serious injury. The fact that he played the game instead of going out with his family made him think his serious addiction to gaming had impact involving the accident. It was like something similar to Stewie2K and ropz from CSGO pro, Stewie2k's parents refused to accept their son's addiction to gaming, so he had to separate himself from his own family. For ropz, even before becoming pro, he's known as a player with very mechanic movements and aiming, making him look like seriously aimbotting. Called out by many pros, he even flied to FaceIt HQ to prove himself that he's not hacking/cheating. He only had streaming as his main source of income, and then his father ended his own life because of financial problems. And thus he began to make CSGO pro his so that he could make his own living and make his father proud. In the end, protocol rain has a very good story.
