I don’t know if it’s the same for the EU as it is for the US, but Netflix holds the rights for BNA and to my knowledge very few if any of the anime Netflix has exclusive license for ends up getting a western physical release. Which is a shame because BNA and Little Witch Academia are two of my favorites that I want to own, but like you, importing the Japanese releases just isn’t worth it. I’ve not dug too deeply into this so I’m not going to say I’m 100% correct, hopefully someone else comes and surprises us lol

I’ve not actually watched Cutie Honey but I found these two references of what to watch although it’s mostly geared towards where to start. https://reasonstoanime.com/2020/11/05/the-ultimate-guide-to-cutie-honey/ https://www.reddit.com/r/gonagai/comments/71et80/cutie_honey_anime_watch_order_recommendation/

It sounds like to me you should go ahead and watch the Original if thats what you’re leaning towards. Then you can do Re:Cutey or Shin Cutey (sounds like order doesn’t matter between them). I’d assume since Flash is an alternative version you could watch that and the movie after.

sauce? It’s giving me ‘I am a Hero’ vibes

Rascal does not dream of … franchise > Monogatari franchise

pretty much any slice of life > Yuru Camp

I’ve been to a handful of conventions held in the D.C. area over the last 8 or so years. I originally did a bunch of panels the first few times I went but quickly found that the quality was extremely hit or miss so now I only go to maybe one if it’s really specific to an interest of mine. The AMV contests are enjoyable though, albeit a little long.

Otherwise I spend most of my time in the vendor hall or artist gallery, checking out the cosplayers, and occasionally play some of the arcade or touhou games in the gaming hall.

Really though I couldn’t see myself going more than once or twice a year, and when I do go it’s only for a single day and not the whole weekend. It’s certainly fun and I enjoy it but after a while I run out of things I want to do or see. It does feel nice being surrounded by like minded people especially having grown up not having anyone to talk to anime with and effectively hiding my interest in it. It’s just comforting in a way.

“Blood and Guts” by Shirō Sagisu which was featured in the 2012 film Berserk: The Golden Age Arc I

There are multiple versions of the song so I don’t know exactly which version Gigguk used in the video but the one I linked is the original version.

Big fan of the anime, haven’t read the source material though so no clue whats expected to come. I personally thought season 3 was a bit slower paced than the first two seasons, or maybe it was just less Iruma focused, so hoping season 4 will be on par with the first two seasons in that regard.

As for when it’ll come out I’m thinking Spring season 2024. Since each season has been roughly 6 seasons a part. 1st Fall 2019, 2nd Spring 2021, 3rd Fall 2022, thus Spring 2024 hopefully.

Definitely gonna check out

• Love Live fantasy spinoff
• Mushoku Tensei 2
• JJK 2
• Hibike Euphonium OVA

Definitely the Hibike! Euphonium OVA. Been waiting for a while for more Eupho.

For actual shows, I think the Love Live Fantasy spin off could be interesting.

Yea the designs and art from Akebi’s Sailor Uniform were really great. Was a pretty fun show as well
