  • Entirely depends on what you’re looking for in an anime and manga. It’s full of hornybait and fanservice, but also does manage to tell a romantic high school story about how you shouldn’t judge a book by it’s cover and how you gotta keep striving to be your best self while also staying true to your feelings.

    It’s genuinely wholesome, but also targeted more towards guys. If you’re put off by that description, avoid it. If it sounds like your cup of tea, go for it.


  • Honestly, pretty decent adaptation so far.
    I like the VA for Sung Jinwoo. He’s definitely doing a banger job.

    But I do miss some of the more intricate page-spanning artworks where you had to scroll from left to right to even get the full picture of what’s going on. I guess that is just very hard to adapt to an animated format.





















  • This is only the pilot and they’re trying to get the series greenlit.

    Uhhh considering the amount of views and the hype it generated, I hope they reached their goal?
    But in terms of production, well, no idea how long it will take. If they want to make a whole season with episodes on this quality level, then I can imagine you might have to wait 1~2 years minimum? But that’s just my uninformed opinion, take it with a grain of salt. Might be more, might be less.

    Be sure to set the audio track of the video to your preferred language!

    So this animation randomly exploded and made it’s way onto my frontpage.

    I watched it just out of curiosity and have been kind of obsessed over it ever since, so I thought I’d share it with the fediverse.

    To add a little bit of background on why this video went viral, it should be noted that this is produced by indie animation studio called “Glitch” and the creator called “Gooseworx” had a following from a previous animation. I can imagine the artstyle in this one is not everybodies cup of tea, but I am personally amazed by it and very intrigued!





  • Personally, I block anything related to news&politics on the fediverse (same on reddit).

    Humans have a structural problem with any system that allows voting on the visibility of headlines. It encourages outrage, populism, attention grabbing headlines while discouraging more refined factual discussions. Kinda like tabloid journalism.
    Reddit has the same problem and way worse, but with enough time it will happen here too.

    Most users read the headline before giving their own opinion, not many take their time to read a majority of other comments and the least amount of users actually read the linked article (which is to be honest also often the fault of the quality of an article, i.e. being too long, boring and partially ai-generated).

    This results in the most lukewarm most agreeable opinions being top comments, while they’re also oftentimes being uninformed.

    This is just what I gathered from my own personal experience with social media, I don’t have any good sources to back up my claims.
