General Anime Thread
- Thread starter Hisako
- Start date
2015-2017 movies about political identity issues, Ghostbusters remake, Annie 2014. Whats next? Final Fantasy Advent Children getting its own spin. Just saying "Shrugs" This is what happens when you are not faithful to the original works though.... so sad. They cant make their own so they have to leech of something successful.
Though i didnt know Will Smith was in that movie Annie from 2014, i like that actor atleast. Still i just dislike when movies or creations arent how it originally was.

Helping to Kickstart the second one make me so proud.
This is a Netflix Show rather than an anime (despite being based on one) and it also has a whole thread devoted to talking about it: https://thelifestream.net/forums/showthread.php?t=19545

I have now watched the first season of Boku no Hero Academia.
It is a nice underdog story. I'm curious enough to watch the second season (which I'll be doing sometime in August when my friend returns) but I'm not falling in love with the show or becoming particularly invested. The show mostly reminds me that I am really, really eager for the second season of One Punch Man.

Been slowly making my way through Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid. It's an endearing and sweet anime with plenty of humor, and it has this simplistic yet adorable art style. And the dragon's have rainbow hair I wanna make fanart. 
I have just one more episode left before it's over.
Totally recommend if you want to watch a pretty humorous, cute, and laid back series.
Am currently watching both Konosuba and the Fate parody series Carnival Phantasm, both are very comedic and gosh, it's so nice to watch comedy sometimes. I never really watched a lot of more 'pure comedy' series, but I am really enjoying it.
Finished Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works like a couple weeks ago maybe and it's SOOOO GOOOD but it's also pretty serious. Which I love, but lighthearted comedy is great to balance it out with. <3 (Also the new Berserk anime is super serious so.... XD)
Been using the Crunchyroll app a lot for anime, I've got several more lined up to watch too.
Eeeee my new internet is so good <3

Started watching Kakegurui and Fate/Apocrypha, unfortunately both shows are being licensed by NETFLIX (with the later only being available on November)
The salty thing is that NETFLIX.JP does simulcast these shows!

Finished watching Little Witch Academia which was really good.
Currently watching Sakura Quest, which is a hidden gem, IMO. So easy to miss because of the title and the "cute-girly" cover, so I'd encourage you to check out the whereabouts of the queen of the kingdom of Cupakabura who got the job by mistake after 30+ unsuccessful job applications

Son'y acquiring Funimation: http://kotaku.com/soon-funimation-will-be-sonys-1797422900
Hopefully this means that we get better theatrical releases of things like Your Name & Shin Godzilla in the future (and hopefully that some of their content becomes available through PS Vue or something like that).

It's good that they've released/are releasing the films that hasn't gotten a prior release under Disney. I imagine the rights issues and whatnot are different, since it's pre-Ghibli, but I wonder if they'd ever pick up Takahata's Gauche the Cellist (or if not GKIDS, then maybe Discotek'll do it someday). Or even Takahata's pre-Ghibli shows like Anne of Green Gables or Heidi. That's probably wishful thinking, but it's a bit weird that Anne hasn't ever gotten a North American release when it's an adaptation of a Canadian novel.

I found this story quiet touching:
How Mari Okada Went From Shut-In to Anime Director.
