So I finished watching this and it was… well, quite the experience.

The main attractive to me was theorizing about plot elements and thinking about the themes of the anime (I still got a bit confused though).

I think that what interested me the most was how it talked about the collective unconsciousness and how it affects one's perception of reality.

I finished the show a few weeks ago after bouncing off several times through the years. This time I fucked with it hard enough by the middle that I almost became a witch and placed Lain at the head of my pantheon, but I stopped when I realized that if she isn't powerful enough to do yuri for herself then there's no way she would be powerful enough to do yuri for a follower.

Does Hellsing Ultimate count? It was released from 2006 to 2012. Or can we only talk about the episodes which were released before 2010?

The tv show had an aesthetic that the ovas failed to capture imo.
2 things that always bothered me about ultimate were the unnaturally glowing teeth everyone has(sometimes its like they are holding a lightbulb in their mouths) and the plastic looking blood.
Both have their strengths and weaknesses.

what do you guys think about hobbyani? its a genre that refers to manga based on some kind of hobby (usually toys and video games) thats often marketed to children-think digimon and medabots

this sort of stuff exploded in the 2000s, but i dont see kids watching this stuff anymore. honestly a shame because theres a lot of love put into this stuff, even if the stories arent the most mature or profound.

Unfortunately the more Japan's population ages the less you will get proper kids anime, its mostly reboots for older fans now. Plus kids grow up with Ipads now, so cards, tops, etc are kind of out.

That's false for several reasons. Digital toys are not new to Japan, a lot of hobbyani are based off digital games, and analog games have been increasing in sales.

HUOUH?!?! What in the world?! A variation on the missionary position… The Lifted Hips! I can't believe the guy we brought in for such an important job is harboring this level of sexual deviancy… How old can this girl be?! Give me a full-chested woman any day! Someone like that foreign actress Isabelle Adjani. But no, no, there's nobody else we could get to take on such a difficult assignment. There's nothing for it — I have to put aside common decency and pretend I didnt see anything at all.

I found this obscure manga yesterday called Golondrina and binged all of the translated chapters. I love finding these unknown manga but it also sucks because they're usually not fully translated. I'll learn japanese eventually but that takes time

Yougen no Chi has 3 chapters left for Volume 4 before the series went on hiatus as far as I'm aware, but I couldn't find raws and the TL group seemed to have dropped this. A shame because I really enjoyed this.

Since you're all here it seems like it's a good time to ask, which is your favorite?
>Hidamari
>Geijutsuka
>Sketchbook

Or, since Hidamari is the most popular by far, let's give some love to the other two. Sketchbook's adaptation is the most relaxing of the bunch IMO, especially this time of year.

It's nice to have a situation where the most popular one is the best as well.
For Sketchbook I recall it being decent but all the cat parts being shit. For GA for reasons I can't recall it's one of my least favourite Kirara anime. I really don't know what it did wrong to make me consider it Aldnoah tier but aside from remembering a surrealist episode being decent I don't remember anything else so have to defer to a list I made 6 years ago.

For extra art girl anime if I count New Game and Stella no Mahou they'd only be behind Hidamari. If I include mangaka and potters a few extra series would join them.

I found volume 2 in a secondhand shop the other day. It's a little bit disappointing they didn't have the 1st as well, but it was still a good find.
I'm taking this as my sign to start reading it finally. I'll report back later.

I'm sure you've all heard the news - Osaka (Ayumu Kasuga) is going to be in the next Yotsuba&! chapter after an over two decade absence. Since Kiyohiko Azuma's works are so fundamental to western imageboard culture, I proclaim this "Osaka Week"!
Users are encouraged to post Osaka anywhere and everywhere!
Also, I'll be running a Azumanga Daioh marathon this Saturday starting at 12PM EST, including a bunch of (sfw) doujin Azumanga games!

I thought it was awful coincidental that the most relevant character to the Western fandom (particularly those who frequent anime centric websites) would be the one who had the cameo. I would have expected Sakaki or Chiyo, since they were the most prominent characters in the actual series. (They may have already had cameos; I've never read Yotsuba&!) I wonder if the Japanese see Osaka the way many of us see her and that inspired the decision. Or maybe the mangaka sees her as we do! It's all speculation.
>>504
Thank you for the Osaka week, Figamin.
