  • So many… Only counting inserts, OPs and EDs, here are some of my favourites:

    • The AoT insert songs are incredible and this suite is even better.
    • Grand Escape from Weathering With You
    • Suzume’s title track
    • unravel, as cliche as it is
    • Enigmatic Feeling from Psycho-Pass
    • Signal from 91 Days
    • Black Lagoon’s OP
    • The Garden of Sinners EDs
    • Land of the Lustrous OP
    • Watashi Dake Yurei (the SICKHACK song from BTR).
    • Original Spice and Wolf openings
    • Voracity by MYTH & ROID from overlord
    • Hunting Soul from Dandadan
    • Might be recency bias, but the OPs from With You In The Rain and Clevatess
    • Fate/Stay Night Heaven’s Feel EDs by Aimer





  • I’ve slowly started to try to catch up with this season, but so far, I’ve not liked any of them except Gachiakuta and May I Ask.

    • Dark History Villainess: pacing is all fucked up. It’s as if I’m watchibg a summary. Dropped after 3 eps
    • Mangaka’s Workplace: couldn’t stand the MC. I don’t typically mind characters like her, but she seemed super over the top anxious for no reason and over the same thing the entire time. Well for the time I watched it anyway. Dropped after 1 ep.
    • Pass The Monster Meat: started out fine, but after a couple of eps it became messy. Dropped it after 5 eps.

    If anyone has fall 2025 suggestions, I’m open for it (as long as it’s on CR and Netflix. Can’t be bothered to pirate atm).








  • I think there’s a 50% chance we went to the same theater, because I also went to see The Colors Within yesterday

    Haha, yeah, quite likely.

    slight plot hole

    Hm, maybe, but they were quite lenient with other things in the ends so…

    Still a weird experience to go to the mainstream cinema and see an anime film in a packed house, though. That would have been unthinkable a few years ago.

    Hmm, I don’t know. It wasnt in any cinemas near me, so it depends on where you are I guess. Bigger cities generally have a wider variety of audiences.



  • Haven’t really had the brain space to pick up anything from this season yet, but I did watch two anime films yesterday in the theater: Chainsaw Man: Reze’s Arc and The Colors Within.

    CSM: I didn’t like S1 much. I thought it was okay at best. But this film was incredible. Denji is much more human here and Reze is just incredible. She really stole the show. The pool scene everyone raves about deserves all the praise it gets. Visually it’s a big upgrade too imo. More vibrant and better movement. And man, that soundtrack was so good. Kensuke Ushio doesn’t fail to deliver. If this is how the rest of CSM is going to be adapted, I’m all for it.

    The Colors Within: the theater I went to ocassionally has anime film showings outside of the release schedule, and they showed this one this time. Great movie as expected of Naoko Yamada, also with a great soundtrack by Kensuke Ushio. Bit of a tonal whiplash to see it right after CSM though haha.
