I never got into it, it's grief porn.
You might want to have a sit down with your girlfriend and tell her that you'll still love her if she's a sadist, but that you won't be having that in the bedroom.

I really can't imagine caring enough about any of these characters to feel sad about them getting smacked out of the air like a fly when the scary new enemy shows up. None of them have much personality beyond the most generic anime tropes. One girl's personality went from "eating js funny haha" to "coward", which seems to be a trend with several of the lesser characters.
The show treats death like it's nothing and only the main character seems to notice that people die by the truckload in every episode, with other characters getting specifically upset when their friend that has only existed onscreen for ten seconds dies in a supposedly gory offscreen kill. One figure they spouted really bugged me: they mention at one point that 60 fucking percent of their army had died in the last four years. That's such a colossal number that it loses any value it might have had. I'm supposed to believe that the plucky main characters are going to magically turn this FUBAR situation around just because they believe REALLY hard in each other. Meanwhile a "plan" in the last episode we watched involved literally throwing away the lives of like ten no-name soldiers. Are you starved for troops or are they expendable? Make up your mind. These losses were, of course, immediately forgotten about.
Something that also annoys me. I thought the show was going to be gory but it always cuts away anytime anything good happens.
What really annoys the fuck out of me is the inaction though. People are constantly just standing around bitching about how awful things are, watching their friends get eaten or whatever and bemoaning how awful it all is. Almost like they've not been trained in how exactly to kill the giant retards stomping around. It's like a zombie film, where the only real danger is the stupidity of the cast.
At least with the introduction of a real monster that actually seems dangerous in the woman titan, there's some interest, but it's hard to maintain when they cut away to an episode-long conversation or flashback in the middle of the action.
I will have that talk with her though, I don't want my balls getting stepped on.

Where have you been since like last 5 years? Just in case, this isn't waifu list, so don't have any wrong idea.
ReZero (2016), Emilia (half-elf)
Goblin Slayer (2018 ), Elf.
How not to summon a demon lord (2018 ), Shera L.Greenwood.
Mushouku Tensei (2021), Sylphiette, more prominent in season 2 I think?
Faraway Paladin (2021), Meneldor, a guy.
Immoral Guild (2022), Rune, a guy.
Isekai Ojisan (2022-2023), Elf Sui.
Eminence in Shadow (2022-2023), Shadow Garden girls.
Handyman Saitou (2023), Franlil Lil Alil, more of a side character.
Edomae Elf (2023).
Farming Life in another world (2023).
Danmachi S4 (2023), Ryuu Lion being more prominent.
I'm sure there are more examples with whatever isekai, reincarnation slop and traditional fantasy anime over last few years.
More like too many knife-eared leaf lovers propaganda to me.

Since people were talking goofy anime dubs recently, this post reminded me to recommend the Golgo 13 anime from 2008, specifically the dub. It's a Sentai dub that came out not long after ADV went under, and it channels a lot of the same energy. Some of the accents they pull are absolutely hysterical, which is only improved by how seriously the show takes itself with its absurdly implausible scenarios. It's an excellent watch, and with 50 episodes, you've got plenty of fun in store.
Lain is excellent from what I recall, but it's been years since I've seen it. Don't let trannies ruin it for you, they don't even know anything about the show beyond "cute girl into tech she's me fr fr."
Haha, oh man, get ready for a roller coaster of what-the-fuck. Personally, among myself and my friend group, season 1 was okay, season 2 was pretty boring, season 3 got interesting again, and then season 4 went off the rails in a so-bad-it's-hilarious way. It's definitely an overrated series that the author had no idea what to do with, but if you don't take it seriously, it has its moments of entertainment.

Berserk is basically like attack on titan.
The entire point of the show is to shock the viewer with scenes of senseless violence. It seems to short circuit something in dumber individuals who can't grasp the nature of senseless violence, so they're locked in a mental loop of attempting to process senseless violence over and over again because there's just something they can't grasp. For most people violence and murder is not something they ever experience in their life, and so it's a concept that physically does not exist in their mind except as an vague concept that they forget when they get distracted by the next scene of the show.
Other people can actually grasp the concept of senseless violence, so after the first couple examples it just gets repetitive and boring.

It's so-so and rather forgettable. I had to force myself to finish it. The only good thing to come out of Lain is this.
Only by current-day standards when every occasional crossdressers is considered a tranny.
No biggie for him, since he used to be Gauron's fucktoy.
The OVAs and films are pure comedy. Have fun.
Epic troll, my mate. One is not like the other. I refuse to believe there is one person out there who thinks Blassreiter was anything but shit. To even place it in the same sentence with Guyver is in bad taste and you should feel ashamed.
Don't flaunt your pee fetish on the Farms.

Gauron is just a pure psycho. That man doesn't have sex, he just kills people. I'm convinced of that

Speaking of Elves getting back into the spotlight, Plus-Sized Elf is getting an anime! Despite the localization choice for the title, chubby (elf) lovers will be eating good this year.

It appears to me that people elsewhere are clamoring about this being a huge BTFO towards despicable dub localizers and voice actors, but I immediately felt that this test case on an infamous scene is missing a major component in emotive voice inflection to get across the original punchline.

I have a thing for biomechanical stuff and high octane racing. I enjoyed Blassreiter. It's a creative show and fun watch especially compared to the many trash isekais we see today.

i was a fan of the manga (i like my girls a little big ok) but the concept gets stale rather quick. Dark elf for best girl.

The year is 1993. Someone is arguing that unlike other mecha anime, a particular show (Patlabor in this instance) is about the characters. Comparing it, even, to a critically acclaimed live-action American tv show. Not much has changed.

tbh I take that over an ensemble cast that's never in real danger because of plot armor, until the writer needs a twist somewhere down the line and it happens just for shock value.
