I'm so, so happy that this fantastic series is getting such a great adaptation.
Every frame screams of SOVL; especially the dance number ED. D is a wonderfully
compelling protagonist and Suzukiri does things to me.

This adaptation is going severely above and beyond what I expected. The manga
for this sells decently enough but not like super amazing. So I was just kind of
expecting a standard production. I did not think we'd be getting an anime of
this caliber with some sick directing tricks and sakuga (that scene where D
charges the Keepers in his mind for example looked incredible).

I'm so glad this is 2-cours. I hope they can keep the momentum going

Been enjoying this so far, so curious to see where it goes from here.
spoiler[While I wouldn't be surprised if D isn't dead, I was expecting him to
somehow recover from his hand, so using that hand as a fake sword was a neat
surprise]

As a Super Sentai fan, I'm enjoying not only the dark and twisted rendition of
the genre (that obviously knows it's roots in an out right down to the dancing
ED sequence) but is also just a pretty well-animated, well-directed, and
enjoyable series.

Fighter D is a very compelling protagonist (especially with Yusuke Kobayashi's
voice), Suzukiri literally makes me want to be her chair, the and Keepers are
effective antagonists.

Also I love how Sentai VA alum Yuichi Nakamura and legit Sentai actress MAO are
playing Rangers here.

Guess we know what the big cosplay group dances will be at cons this summer.

I'm not baptized in the sentai religion, but have a passing familiarity, so I'm
having a good time with this. There's a Deadman Wonderland vibe to it, but it's
cloaked in upbeat sentai accessibility. Still, it keeps provoking feelings I'm
not entirely sure how to describe - dread? sadness? despair? Basically I'm
pretty amazed at how much I'm relating to D and the other Dusters' struggle.

With her insectoid eyes and antenna pigtails, I'm guessing Suzukiri is an alien
from another invading race. Eagerly awaiting finding out what her deal really
is. Hibiki's an odd duck too.

As someone who is currently reading Ranger Reject, I am going to refrain from
comment anything about the plot; instead the animation is quite good and
enlivens the manga.

Honestly I can't decide which one I am enjoying the most between this and
Konosuba.

A lot of the Hekiru fight got cut out for the anime, unfortunately. That's
something I can live with, but spoiler[revealing Hibiki's face as barely damaged
when it's supposed to be horribly disfigured] is a real issue that's gonna cause
problems down the line. I'm surprised that they didn't show the end of Hibiki's
backstory, but maybe it'll get saved for later.

One detail and piece of dialog from the manga that got cut/didn't get properly
explained is that in previous episodes, D's transformation into Hibiki had
"flat" eyes, monocolored or with a plain gradient. Then in the scene when Hibiki
cuts off his own hand, D says something along the lines of "I couldn't quite get
your eyes right before, but I think I get it now," followed by the "perfect"
replication of the ultra-sparkly eyes that Hibiki has.

But yeah, the entire switcheroo strategy was heavily abbreviated here.
Crucially, spoiler[Hekiru had been tricked earlier by D using a cut-off hand in
an attack, that's why part of the strategy for that final confrontation required
Hibiki to cut off his hand and have it be used in the scheme. That way Hekiru
couldn't be sure which of the two was Hibiki.]

D used more dust to make a fake head.

It was hinted early in the episode that D could turn his hand into heads, his
own mask, and other stuff at will. You can see his hand recovering after the
decapitation, meaning he used it to create the head til the faker fell from the
cliff. The manga go into intricate detail about everything, but it still makes
sense in the anime, it's just blazing fast and compressed.

I just have to say that Yuichi Nakamura has an incredibly sexy voice in this
show. Makes me sad when the Red Keeper doesn’t get much screen time in an
episode.

It's a dark but hilarious Sentai-seasoned spin on a cultural issue still
relevant to Japanese society.


Actually, this is the second series so far this season to feature religious
cults in modern(ish) Japan. (See also A Salad Bowl of Eccentrics, which had a
whole episode devoted to it and may not be done with it.)

Or maybe that means it did? I don't know, y'all. Anime has warped my brain so
much after all of these years that I'm having a hard time gauging what a
“normal” level of incest is in my media, anymore.


Hahaha "absolutely none" for me these days anymore I think. It's just another
something I've learned to tolerate in anime and Japanese videogames, and do my
best to ignore it/steer clear from obvious signs of it. After many years and
years of it, it's gotten so tiresome. I feel totally dispassionate even, that I
find it hard to do anything but sigh and move on when yet another anime or
Japanese game I'm enjoying decides to sprinkle in some incest.

A SALAD BOWL OF ECCENTRICS ANIME SERIES REVIEW

Jul 5, 16:00

Despite refocusing away from overt fantasy trimmings, A Salad Bowl of Eccentrics
remains persistently and delightfully bonkers. ― Reverse isekai as a genre
hasn't been done to death as definitively as its unreversed sibling. In A Salad
Bowl of Eccentrics, the parallel world conceit is primarily employed to provide
us with two very different fish-out-of-water characters and mine their odd
situations f...
