View Quote That is definitely a fair point but I don't think any of the characters I've seen yet have been that far gone. That being said I've probably only watched around 6-10 isekai animes so I am by no means an expert. |

That being said I've probably only watched around 6-10 isekai animes so I am by no means an expert. I don't mean to say they are sitting at home crying every night thinking about offing themselves or anything. It could just be someone like the MC in Death March to the Parallel World Rhapsody. A guy with no family, not much of a (if any) social life, and who pretty much just goes to his cubical job and then goes home. |

That's a good example. I forgot about that MCs backstory. I liked that anime. He didn't seem to have much in the real world to miss. He did seem to adapt pretty well though trying to become a merchant and basically forming an instant family and friends circle. In his shoes I wouldn't want to leave. Maybe it was easier for that character to accept because he was a gaming programmer?
Man it's been a while since I watched that show. I saw that right before I watched Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash so it kind of slipped my mind. I liked Grimgar so much I have the Light Novels on order but some of them are constantly out of stock at right stuff anime. That anime is an isekai that if the MCs weren't fighting like hell to get home there is something wrong with them. At least that was how it was when the anime ended. The characters started actually getting their acts together at the end so I am really looking forward to seeing what happens to them in the Light Novels. It couldn't be much worse for them then how it started. On a different note I just finished Testament of Sister New Devil. Man that was a fun show. It has humor kind of like Highschool DxD but with more sexual situations. The only weird part is to watch it uncensored you have to watch the dubbed version. The subbed version is censored but the censors are actually pretty funny in spots. |

In my defense though when I mentioned that I was going to watch Inuyasha here it didn't seem to get many positive reviews. I had to look up the one quote about it and it was "It's a shonen for girls" so I never bothered. Guess I'll have to put it back in my queue to watch at some point. |

Originally Posted By DprvdDgnrt: You really really should watch it, I won’t sit here and say the criticism isn’t accurate hell I just said about how it’s the same shit over and over BUT I’ve watched it all the way through twice Definitely watch the dub (Netflix has it) and just give it a go if you wanna you’ll know pretty quick if you wanna jump ship I was in elementary/middle school when I watched this and got excited when it was that time of the week so I may be a bit biased View Quote I'll watch it then and I can guarantee I'll end up watching it all. The only series I dumped was eromanga sensei (after 1 episode) because I couldn't get into a show with that plot. Now that I'm more accustomed to the colorful side of anime I may even try to watch that again at some point. I was a few years out of Highschool when Inuyasha started airing and I didn't watch anime then. I'm pretty late to the party so to speak. At that time the only anime I had watched was Dragonball/DBZ and Sailor Moon. While I don't think I disliked it, I only watched Sailor Moon because it was airing while I was getting ready for school at 7am and we didn't many TV channels to choose from. At some point I also watched Gundam Wing but I can't remember when. I think it was around the same time frame. That is all the anime I had watched until this last year or so. |

Kind of a slow episode of The Promised Neverland, but some massive info bombs got dropped.
I can't recall ever looking more forward to new episodes of an in-season anime than this one. |

I noticed The Seven Deadly Sins started back up. I got about 10 mins into E1 before I stopped watching. I might watch it when the season is finished.

I wouldn't have even knew it started back if I didn't randomly come across it. Apparently it started back yesterday. Must be pretty popular because the video has about 750k views in 24 hours. Just do a search for "the seven deadly sins season 5 episode 1" and you'll find it. |
