Watched Darling in the FranXX in two days.

Fucking amazing show, but holy fuck the ending - ruined it for me. Episodes 1 to 15 were honestly just a masterpiece with basically everything done right. Then they decide to throw everything that made the show good (because of a change of writers as far as I'm aware) and then make the show about
fighting literally not foreshadowed aliens and space warfare??? like what the fuck? the show was good because of its characters and relationships. so why do you introduce an alien invader in a single episode with no foreshadowing and then make the main characters fight in space???? why??? and then they turn big strilezia into fucking 02??????????? what were they fucking smoking dude? the last four episodes were a literal dumpster fire

But at least I can listen to 「Escape」 and cry. I don't know why but that ED just envokes some feelings man : (
and then wonder what if the new writers hadn't taken a massive dump on the show which until that point had been amazing

They goofed it pretty bad altogether... Too sad, it had so much potential, being a Trigger + A-1 show and all.

The real question is

Did you watch all of the endless eight or not

got a quarter way thru before realising i want to do broadcast order instead, imma just watch 1, 7 and 8

:(

now for real I can imagine the looks in the faces of Japanese viewers when they were waiting for the week's new episode and it was exactly the same as the one before

although ofc, that was one of the "effects" the endless eight wanted to give

i actually watched the entire endless eight wayback when without knowing about it beforehand, and just got really confused when i watched the same episode eight times back to back

I might have decided to make a parody of "When I'm Bored" because I had nothing to do
and I might have spent 13 hours over the last two days making it
and I might have finished it

Anime related, kinda

Am I the only gacha player in the community or what?

90% of gacha games are money-grabbing pinball machines with a thin disguise

raid shadow legends, afk arena, etc

if you find me a gacha game that does not beg me to insert $100, i'd probably play it

I play Fate/Grand Order, Tales of Crestoria and SINoALICE.

All three of them have an interesting story to play through, and their PVP is not their main focus, which is what I seek, normally

Aside from that, sure, rates in SINoALICE and F/GO are shit when it comes to SSR, but you can beat the game with the lowest of the lowest characters just fine and focus on enjoying the story. Tales of Crestoria has like a 5% rate of getting an SSR and it's insanely easy to level up characters so, for starters I'd say it's a good choice. It's just been released, though, so it needs a bit of work because there's a couple troubling issues. Nothing major.

Farming is necessary ofc, like in any other game, cause characters need power and levels, and you need materials for that. Gladly, the events where these things are farmed have their own stories and are kinda chill to play, too.

The #1 rule of all gacha is to focus on story and fun - The PNGs are not that important, sure it sucks to farm quartz to pull for your favourite 2D character, but hell, it really isn't worth all the salt if you end up not getting it, just wait for the next time it's on rate up lol.

This is literally DragonBall

All characters are Goku because the artstyle of the artist is super fixed

It's insanely funny to see the designs from its gacha game, where you don't exactly know who you've pulled until you see the name, because most guys look the same

that's why i love studios like Madhouse, Kyoto Animation, Ufotable etc etc. because a lot of their characters are instantly recognizable

It's because only one person is in charge of the character designs

For FGO, for instance, there's a buttload of different artists (two 5* servants were made by Dangaronpa's artist, though I don't especially like how the design doesn't blend at all with the rest of the game, BUT), but you can spot Takeuchi's designs from a mile away:
