Delicious In Dungeon Episode 6: Court Cuisine/Boiled In Saltwater

Being a manga reader, I really don't have much to say in the world of story for Delicious In Dungeon. Conversely, I have a world of stuff to say about the adaptation end of things, but I'll keep it short.

Keita Nagahara, the storyboarder for this episode, perfectly understood the assignment. They know what Trigger does best, and they know how to make the most of the source material.

Comedy, action, excessive character animation, Nagahara's episode has it all in spades, wrapped up under very solid awareness of dimensionality and space.

Their use of foreground obstruction to force depth and awareness of space is incredible, and insanely novel. Using party members as those obstructions is impeccable, and I love how they further subvert expectations by using party members for first person perspectives as well.

It's certainly recency bias telling me that this episode is the best of the season, but at the very minimum it is 100% on par with episode 3. Makes me wonder if every episode that's a multiple of 3 will be this good.

Jjk in a nutshell

[southside-otaku]

I realized I haven’t mentioned an anime FULL of HUGE HOT MEN! And when I say HUGE I mean

GIANT!!!!

So for my babes who are big boy lovers like me I hope I can either reintroduce or get yall into Toriko! Plus this shows about FOOD! Big men AND food!! Only thing that sucks is it didn’t finish dubbed past the first like 50 episodes and my man has no English va😔 oh well.

Also there’s a DBZ, One Piece, and Toriko crossover which is why it’s CRAZY that it’s not more popular so I will ALWAYS try to promote in hopes for more content lol

Ps the MEGA tall and scary lookin one is MY MAN MY MAN MY MAAAAAAANNNNN😍🥰😮‍💨🤭

@i-literally-cant-with-this @kazutora-kurokawa @witchy-scribblings @manji-hoe imma ruin yall at this point🤣

If I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again

DanDaDan got a plot like a rabid hamster.

But like.

A horny rabid hamster.

[amethystsoda]

listen, Trigun is great and an absolute classic. But Blood Blockade Battlefront?? It’s just FUN.

Trigun can get very bleak at times—it’s the story of a dying planet, after all.

B3 is just. A love letter to scifi and heroes and allows the cast to have chemistry and enjoy modern tech. People just want to eat burgers. There’s tons of jokes and yet everyone gets moments to be cool.

Also there’s vampires 👍

also monkey 😌

I just started watching Handa-Kun and… wow this anime is absolutely hilarious??? But also, this poor guyy. Plus, the opening animation is so wild and amusing?! And catchy. New current favourite, complete series, not a recent release.

“Hated by everyone around him, Sei Handa goes about his high school life regarded as an outcast—or at least that is what he believes. In reality, Handa is the most popular student on campus, revered by all for his incomparable calligraphy skills, good looks, and cool personality. However, due to an endless series of misunderstandings, Handa perceives the worship he receives from his legions of fans as bullying, leading the school's idol to shut himself off from the rest of his classmates.

But distancing himself from his peers does not deter them from adoring him; in fact, his attempts at drawing attention away from himself often end up unintentionally converting even the most skeptical of students into believers. Fashion models, shut-in delinquents, obsessive fangirls, and more—none can stand against the brilliance that is Sei Handa.”

Questions Of Love In Bucchigiri!?

Hiroko Utsumi is no stranger to distilling homoeroticism into their works, but Bucchigiri!? is able to take it a step further as it intertwines with the hypermasculine idea of fighting and gangs. Because of that, Bucchigiri!? poses two questions to the definition of love and how people experience it.

"What is love versus lust?"

Truthfully, it's a rather simple question to answer (at least to someone outside of high school). The point being the depth of feeling. Lust is strong but shallow, while love moves much deeper.

And the second episode in particular expresses this very strongly through the two gang leaders, Marito and Ken.

They don't feel any way in particular about Arajin until they feel their punch. After that, like Marito says, they just can't forget about it. That's all they know about this kid, "his" punch. And that's all they want from him as well.

The point is to express superficial lust towards Arajin because of something they only experience one single time. They believe that they want the strength behind the person no matter what because of a single moment.

And it's a great comparison to make against Matakara's feelings for Arajin.

Matakara doesn't need to feel "Arajin's" strength to know how he feels about him. On the contrary, he only ever needed to fight (really train) beside him to come to understand that emotion. Even more than that is Matakara's understanding of Arajin outside of fights, and he focuses in specifically on Arajin's passivity and carefulness.

Because of that, you can begin to draw the conclusion that "Lust" is represented by actions involving violence and action, while "Love" stems more from passivity and aversion in this context. Which I think is really really great. It's sort a sort of symbolic explanation of the whole point of violence being boorish and shallow while other communication is deeper and more valuable.

"How much is love worth if they don't love you for who you are?"

Super easy example here with this one. Just look at the Love Forever stone Arajin gives Mahoro vs the friendship one that he gave Matakara.

The whole point is that Arajin's love in the hands of someone who doesn't love him isn't valuable at all, nor is it valuable in the hands of someone that doesn't love him for who he is.

Marito and Ken can only feel something for Arajin because of the strength channeled through him by Senya. It's something entirely foreign to Arajin as a person, and represents both how shallow the gang leaders are, but also how shallow Arajin is.

Loving yourself is something that's tricky to do, and obviously especially so for high school kids. I think it's well understood at this point that Arajin struggles to love himself in a meaningful way, and that's expressed by his willingness to take on Senya.

Case and point being that he intentionally used Senya's strength to try and make himself look good in front of Mahoro, and in the same way used it against Ken to the same effect.

He's afraid of being and accepting himself, so he's allowed something else to speak for him. And while that catches the eye of many, including Matakara, Arajin himself already knows that it's nothing more than a farce to save face.

It's just... really great work in terms of narrative as it bundles so many different aspects of love together to create this complicated web that all stems from Arajin's inability to love himself. Matakara loves the current Arajin, but that Arajin is unable to face himself so he runs from the reflection that Matakara offers and buries himself in lust and unrequited romance.

And that all just comes from high school kids duking it out for fun alongside mystical fighting people that can merge with humans.

It's definitely a step up the symbolic ladder in comparison to Sk8 The Infinity, but I think it's allowed Utsumi to express much more in terms of romance through implicit narratives.

These first two episodes have been incredible, and I'm loving every moment and want to share every bit, but the overall production effort Mappa's been putting in leaves me in an awkward spot for sharing stuff like this.

I really love to, and I want to celebrate the efforts of the staff behind the series, but Mappa rains on that parade with its terrible scheduling and work ethic. The credits are a veritable mess that make episodes like this an incredible feat. And I'll celebrate that and share what I want to, but I do also want to call out Mappa for their terrible work as a studio.

MOB PSYCHO AMV

🎵Monday Night Plays 🎶

Todays AMV is;

Kindness by PieandBeerAMV

Anime: Mob Psycho 100

Music: It’s Alright by Mother Mother

Thoughts: this is genuinely one of my Al time favorite AMVs and so it was an obvious choice for the first pick. This is genuinely one of the best AMV creators I’ve ever seen so yeah.

It’s a great AMV the song fits the characters so well and from a purely technical standpoint this is masterfully edited. The rising emotion is conveyed so oooo well and the editing and storytelling, especially at the last bit. Is geniunly so amazing. I’m trying not to be very specific because I do think it’s something you need to experience to really get. But yeah this AMV does MP100 and its characters justice and I swear even if you’ve never watched a single frame of MP100 you will enjoy this. Please check this out if you’re interested and let me know what you think!

See you next week I guess.

Once again, after years of my brother telling me to watch an anime and then forcing me to start today, I regret not listening because this shit is FIRE!!!

Iron Blooded Orphans

Best thing I've seen this year two even like not even halfway thru episode one I fell in love with the main character and the anime- Mikazuki is my new favorite child sorry Eren sorry Tanjiro sorry Toge sorry every single anime character ever but you have to sit down because Mikazuki owns the pedestal now (and likely forever).
