Woah I think I like this version better. I’m so happy to see Alicia learn about the joys of levelling. Patrick’s reaction was perfect.

Mhmm nothing to see here

Good luck Ranma 🫡

Tanya too :D

This was a fun episode. Ice really got the words of wisdom.

I was mentally tensing up when Ayase saw Okarun and that girl. I’m so used to misunderstandings that I only realised after watching the episode that I was unconsciously preparing for the romcom misunderstanding tropes to happen each time.

Holy shit Hiroi sobered up instantly Bocchi’s mother is a wizard!

I love this cover art. It has a certain vibe just because Ryou and Bocchi are the ones on it.

I’m sad now :(

I’m with Akane on this. Aqua could have lived and been happy. But no, this story is a tragedy.

Two more chapters left, which I’m assuming is the epilogue.

Osho No Ko might end up on the list of stories I’m never rereading/rewatching, alongside Edgerunners and Danganronpa 3: Despair arc.

I love the animation, story and music so much! It’s also one of those rare anime I can recommend to non-anime fans. This is definitely my second favourite anime this season (I’m sorry but Natsuki Subaru’s Melancholy: Season 3 is also airing).

Grandpa is aging.
I wonder if his back hurts.
Grandma is so wise.

Bad haiku aside, grandma is certainly very observant. Also it’s been a while since I read the manga so I don’t remember who the voice on the phone belongs to.

This page really hits hard. The odds are low, but I’m still hoping for a deus ex machina.

I was confused by that too. My theory is that it’s an indicator for affection level. Alicia has already deviated from the original plot of the game quite a bit so I imagine some of the NPCs would be affected by Alicia’s “villainess”-ness.

@rikka@ani.social ↑ this one makes for a cute thumbnail

I am not even a little surprised that school rooftops are popular tourist destinations.

Speaking of which, it’s adorable how Honjouji is accidentally being tsundere lol. I would be happy to get a frog shaped rock too, although that’s just because I also liked collecting weird rocks (I had to get rid of them when I moved 😭).

Haryu is such a meanie 😭

The true villain was anxiety all along.

It did make me uncomfortable, but that scene didn’t have that specific vibe that you might see elsewhere. I think it was actually meant to evoke discomfort, although not too intense because of the absurdity of the whole situation. I don’t know how to describe it exactly, but the flavour of discomfort is different. I have dropped other shows because it just weirded me out too much.

Basically I want to believe that this isn’t the author/artist’s weird interests being forced in and just non-sexualized artistic expression, but I haven’t read the source material so idk how the rest of the anime is gonna go.

Creepy Nuts and zutomayo‽ Fucking hell yeah!

The animation is amazing it felt like a fever dream, and the characters’ voices sounded so crunchy 👌

And somehow it also isn’t a gag anime. I’m sooo gonna enjoy this.

YES FINALLY I WAITED SO LONG AAAAAAAA

I love these two dorks

@rikka@ani.social

Well shit I think I like it

no thoughts head empty

@rikka@ani.social

It’s more common than you think

Ame telling the antis to drop dead was the last thing I was expecting to see… which is my mistake because I should have seen it coming but oh well.

This cover is probably my favourite so far

spirals spirals the never ending spirals spirals spirals spirals spirals spirals spirals spirals spirals spirals spirals spirals spirals spirals spirals spirals

The animation is so smooth, I wonder if they did rotoscoping for the movements. The black and white really brings out the body horror. It really captures the Junji Ito vibe perfectly.
