discovering different animes with similar concepts that you can't get enough of be like:

yeah apparently this boy was raised by the paladin and wasn't told that he's satan's son!

and he has a brother who seems to surpass him and was even chosen by the four-leaf clover grimoire while he remained magic-less!

so he makes up for it with his muscles and managed to get into easton academy, joining the adler dorm!

people always expect nothing from him for being magic-less, but he keeps surprising them with his skills in the dungeons because of his determination to catch up to the love of his life and childhood friend, who's already up at the tower!

but before he can stand alongside her, he has to prove that he will not pose danger on humans because of the kaiju that possessed him!

(1: blue exorcist, 2: black clover, 3: mashle, 4: wistoria, 5: kaiju no. 8)

i think except for will serfort(?) they've all gone to court lmao 🤧

HELP WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU MEAN SION IS (POSSIBLY) CANON BI????

(the anime wasn't out yet so by episodes they mean manga chapters i believe. sion canonically has a crush on colette also but this isn't brought up in that episode. this is the part where he fights with will, the mc, who is also a guy.)

(THIS IS FROM 3 YEARS AGO HOLY SHIT.)

(granted the translation could be wrong bc google translate shitty or it could be a joke but still. copium. and either way AAAAAAAAAAAA.)

(also this.)

either way until the author says otherwise i'm choosing to believe sion is bi

even if im wrong and hes not canon bi and its just a joke. i think the author is chill with it so i will remain on copium /hj

Megami Magazine September 2024 Issue (#292) - Tsue to Tsurugi no Wistoria (Wistoria's Wand and Sword)

[animedegens]

13. Wistoria: Wand & Sword

First off, the animation is top tier in this one. So good.

But, MC wants to stand beside his friend as a Magia Vander (strongest of the world?) & it’s got a cute neko!

It’s similar to Black Clover & Mashle. The mc is super strong like Mash but he uses a sword like Asta in a world dominated by magic. He’s looked down on & bullied but it doesn’t detour him from his promise!

After 1 ep this is a must watch esp if you enjoyed BC or Mashle. The fight was amazing.

2024 Summer Anime

Sorry I'm late on this - I'm going back to school for a second degree this fall so it's been chaos Lots to look forward to for this season!!

Oshi No Ko - Season 2 Such a killer series that I think a lot of people have been looking forward to the second season. They did a great job giving us something to look forward to in the story. Must Watch Noteworthy On-Going Shows: Tensura - Season 3 MHA - Season 7 New Seasons:

Fairy Tail: 100 Year Quest This series was one of my first "longer" shows and I still love the original series. I know it really fell off with the 2014 reboot and the ecchi scenes were ramped up but I think 100 Year Quest gives it a nice fresh start now that people kind of know what to expect.

Additional New Seasons: Kimi ni Todoke: Season 3 A romance drama that my friend has tried to get me to watch for over a decade now. Tower of God - Season 2 I never finished season 1, but I've heard that this series is supposed to be highly reviewed and anticipated. Will go back and watch season 1 to catch up. Shy - Season 2 After letting this series sit for a minute, I'm not entirely sure I'll go back and watch the second season. I think there's definitely an audience for it, but I've got my list full of other priority shows at the moment.

New Noteworthy Shows: There's lots here for everyone this season.

Dead Dead Demon's Dededede Destruction This is a big one I didn't realize was getting an anime adaptation. This is one of the highest rated manga series, I'd say of all time. I'm hyped to watch it. Done by a new studio called Production +h, the style looks perfect.

The Elusive Samurai This is a fairly new shonen jump series that has gained a lot of traction in the manga community. I haven't had a chance to check it out yet, but I've heard good things.

Rick and Morty (Anime) I have so many mixed feelings about this one. I love Rick and Morty but man, and I don't know if I want see them in Japanese/Anime since it's literally already an animations series - but then I realized, because it's produced by the same studio this could be a legitimate "version" of the series that's just a part of the canon Rick and Morty Universe which is kind of cool. Will just have to wait and see I guess.

Suicide Squad Isekai I'm completely on board with this one for some reason. Really not sure why, but it makes perfect sense to me. Honestly pretty stoked to watch it. (+ it's by studio WIT) Wistoria: Wand and Sword A kid enters magic school, although he can't use magic, he's particularly good with a sword. Almost like if Mashle were more serious and less out there? Read the first few chapters of the manga and enjoyed it quite a bit. The Magical Girl and the Evil Lieutenant Used to Be Archenemies I think this looks really cute, will give it a few episodes. (Also because it's done by studio bones) Senpai is an Otokonoko A story about a highschool boy who cross-dresses, friendships between him, another female classmate and his childhood friend who's very protective of him. I'm curious to see how the story progresses and what kind of representation will actually be show-cased in the series. (Looks wholesome) Makeine: Too Many Losing Heroines Amazingly animated slice of life of a group of girls who get rejected by the guys they like. (A1 Pictures) Plus-Sized Elf An elf that came to the human realm falls in love with junk food and now needs help and motivation to lost it. Ecchi series that I saw in manga format a few years ago that I wasn't really expecting to see an animated version for. Mayonaka Punch Has a super unique style that I'm interested to see if the story is actually worth watching at all. Delico's Nursery Same style as Mars Red - group of Vampires taking care of kids and murder mystery solving on the side. Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin - Anime Anime adaptation of the game, animations and character design look great.

Lots to check out this season, seems like a good bunch that are actually worth watching too. Enjoy!!

I didn't realize they were making an anime about leftist infighting

Summer 2024 Anime Round-Up

Supposed to come out last week but MHA and Monogatari decided to be weird and bleed over into next season (Not waiting for your final episode Monogatari)

Anime of the Season: "Oshi no Ko" Season 2

Best Opening: Tsuyogaru Girl (Makeine)

Best Ending: Burning ("Oshi no Ko" Season 2) & Kamakura STYLE (The Elusive Samurai)

Drops: Atri -My Dear Moments- & Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings in Russian

Plans to Watch at a later date: N/A

Completed:

Shoushimin Series - (9/10)

As it turned out the creator of Hyouka wasn't a "one hit wonder". (Though I don't know if they have other works outside of these two). Absolutely fantastic character study that can balanced being thoughtful, suspenseful and completely unhinged. I can't wait for S2 where we'll -hopefully- see Osanai finally punch someone.

Psuedo Harem - (7/10)

A anime with 'Harem' in the title that isn't trashy and is acutally...good? In today's society?

Been a while since I've seen a romcom this cute. Warning to any Saori Hayami fan watching this though. You definitely will fall in love with her more by watching this.

The Magical Girl and the Evil Lieutenant Used to Be Archenemies - (9/10)

The circumstances surrounding this manga are tragic but that didn't take away from this being an very well produced shoujo series. Bones definitely sought out to honor the late mangaka with this production and it paid off in the direction and cinematography. Also, as I grow older, I can't help but appreciate 12 minute anime episodes; as rare as they are.

Makeine: Too Many Losing Heroines! - (8.5/10)

The show I was most looking forward to every week. I don't think this writing was as smart as I thought it was, and lord knows I'm tired of light novels trying to be as meta as possible. But this show had a lot of heart and was very well directed for the director's (Shoutarou Kitamura) debut. Really hoping we get more of this someday.

Yatagarasu - (9/10)

My dark house of anime this cour. And maybe all year. This was one of my "Check it out cause it's getting good word of mouth" shows, and was instantly captivated. The world-building and character drama is so intense that every episode was exciting. My only critique would be how stiff the animation looked but from what I've gathered, this show was working with a rather small team at Pierrot. Please watch this show.

The Elusive Samurai - (6/10)

I really wanted to like this show more than I did. I was a huge fan of AssClass and a work from Cloverworks with Umehara as AniP? Sounds like a recipe for success. Unfortunately, this show didn't know what genre it wanted to be and it hampered my enjoyment quite a bit.

NieR:Automata Ver1.1a (Cour 2) - (8/10)

A2 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

(also I need to keep playing the game cause wtf was that final episode)

Wistoria: Wand and Sword - (7/10)

You can take the Black Clover out of Yoshihara but you can't the Yoshihara ou- uhhh.

Honestly I'm not sure how to write my feelings on this show outside of "Danmachi/Black Clover" love child. We will be there for S2

"Oshi No Ko" Season 2 - (10/10)

They told me Tokyo Blade arc was a peak fiction...At this point, my only fear is that OnK can only go downward from here.

Also everyone in this show needs therapy (though if you've seen one episode of this, you probably knew that already.)

Mission: Yozakura Family - (7/10)

Damn you Disney+!!! How many more shows must be put in your jail and remain hidden from the world. This show reminds me a lot of Hitman Reborn which maybe is why I stuck around to watch it till the end. It did get kind of dumb once they explained the powers but still very enjoyable.

Also shoutout to the ED "Kekkon Koushinkyoku" for being a really really cute ending that didn't make my favorite ED of the season, but still felt it worth mentioning.

My Hero Academia Season 7 - (8.5/10)

Usually when a show gets a new director it get's a decline in quality with the size of that decline varying from show to show. But sometimes, you get a new director that just knows what she's doing and takes MHA to some of it's best seasonal run since Season fucking Three back in 2018!!!!!

*cough* what I'm trying to say is "MHA IS FUCKING BACK"

Monogatari Series: Off & Monster Season - (8/10)

Fuck you monogatari for not finishing in time and delaying my round up. uhh anyway Monogatari is back and still as peak as ever. Nadeko and Shinobu are high up in my "best monogatari girls" tier list (Shinobu is actually no.1) so it was a treat to see them get focus again. Nadeko's arc high the hardest for me in what it means to confront and move on from you past. Just great writing once again. Can't add more than what I've been saying since Bake.

Kiki from Wistoria: Wand and Sword

Today's AniAnimal is Kiki, Will's cat-like familiar from "Wistoria: Wand and Sword". 今日のアニアニマルは『杖と剣のウィストリア』に登場するウィルの猫っぽい使い魔、キキです。

[nijigasakilove]

So we had to waste an entire episode dealing with this Sion drama all cause he got a crush on Will and Will didn’t pay him any attention? Lmaooo. Could’ve used that time to focus on Julius.

Now that he got all that pent up romantic tension out in the open I don’t wanna see or hear from Sion for a while. I expect a Sakuga fest next week to make up for this bs. Did get some cool action scenes this week especially the animation during the start of the Sion and Will fight.

S/O to Colette for holding her own against Julius too. It’s nice to see her being more than just a girl chasing after Will.. would be nice to get more action scenes of her though! That fight took a backseat because of the Sion and Will bs. She did have a lot of cute moments tho like blushing when Will put his coat on her which I loved. She’s so cute

Speaking of people chasing after Will, damn bro is popular with everyone male and female 😂 his Roomate, Colette, Sion, it ain’t easy having aura I guess.

Good episode technically, narratively. Hopefully next episode is better on both. Will’s entrance to the arena to fight Julius gave me chills, Asta vibes for sure
