forget love triangle this is like a love octagon lol
"i am not a prize to be won" asuna should have said. like... why does she not have have any agency over what happens to herself in this video game >______________>
literally the unclear end to jet's story is the one thing that's keeping this episode from being a 10 for me cause this episode is sO good
why do they always treat alex like this? a nerdy girl can't get any unless she's being assaulted??? and nobody actually reacts appropriately??? i hate it so much
can't believe i got swindled into watching an anime that's teaching me about economics
it was so silly and cute but that vibe sort of became stale as the episodes went on and things didn't develop. considering that there's only 12 episodes in the season and I felt bored by the same old recycled gimmicks through the middle doesn't speak too well for it. it is, however, thoroughly made up by the heavy presence of cats imho. also a romance/slice-of-life anime where the main couple don't get together by the end of the first season is bold lol
lady do not be feeling it when he's in his child form you just made it weird >_>
no: mickey and minnie at disneyland
yes: nickee and ninnie at nekomi land
came for some favored voice actors, staying for the a+ cat content
the apothecarist is also a forensic scientist?
i love the craftiness of women and the things they go through to protect themselves and others. i love women so much i love maomao wowowoww
multi-dimensional women who grieve and fight and love one another and give each other sex advice amazing what a show what an episode
the plot armor is strong with this one
the feminine urge to abandon your whole family & community for a cute boy
man these kids and adults should have gotten government funded psychological/emotional support systems after the ptsd they suffered by being forced to live in a life or death video game for 2 years
-laughs in lack of existing veteran support-
but also gross man alert D:
i stuck it out because i wanted to believe but i really shouldn't have.
these poor traumatized underage girls :crying_cat_face:
if this dude hasn't been to his home in japan in 5 years how did yuzu's mom meet him and date him enough to marry him ??
just glad to be watching a romance anime where the protagonists aren't in high school and are grown adults lol
that internalized guilt and shame is real. the true villain in this series is capitalism and society at large lol
ah to only have 7 people exist in a world so you can all be interconnected in a bazillion ways
i wish ppl exploring gender expression through video games wasn't so villainized/sensationalized like... let people do whatever they want it's all pixels and codes >_>
comphet playing a big role here
look at all these kitties working overtime to keep us fed with con!tent!
i love cats
although I didn't really feel each episode was that great, i did appreciate that the show did a fair job of trying to avoid yaoi/bl tropes and portray a gay relationship beyond genre expectations throughout the season. I also love slow burns so like. it worked for me.
also i identify with miyano assigning tropes to the people and situations around him lol.
OH and also the random cats. yes.
man.... miyano is so emotionally dense i can't lol
sasaki: do you wanna go out with me? i think you're cute. I want to get the know the person I like.
miyano: what does he mean by this???
why is this listed as a separate tv show from the first season of horimiya?
either way, it's fine. i enjoyed the extension stories of (most) of the characters particularly Iura, but also this season kind of revealed the holes in horimiya's relationship that just screams RED FLAGS O.o plus how many of the characters' characterization kind of don't... make sense, particularly kyoko's family & their dynamics. it's like the author was so set on making the show fluffy and nice that many of the 'darker' stuff (like the implication that kyoko's parents were never around and she pretty much raised her and her brother herself) kind of got ignored and brushed aside as the show went on.
hori needs some therapy she's giving major self-hatred/bpd vibes tbh
this gross ass teacher should not exist nor should have gotten any frickin screen time on this show eugh
