Hello fine people of this lovely community. Like normal, this thread is the place to collect all your random anime thoughts, hot takes, and questions. Some example conversation starters:
- I really liked Rent a Girlfriend and was wondering what to watch next?
- My brain is too smooth to understand Evangelion. ELI5?
- My Neighbor Totoro is a trash movie. Allow me to count the ways…
- Is there any news about a season 2 of Usagi Drop? I really love where the manga goes after the anime and wanted to know when it might get adapted.
As always, remember to be mindful of spoilers. If you want to know more about how to handle spoilers, I wrote a guide for you to reference.
I just recently finished Higurashi, now I want to try out Umineko and see why they were mentioning it in the first place in Higurashi’s forums. Seems like they were somehow connected. I also peeked at the characters in Umineko and, call me crazy, found 2 very obvious references: Bernkastel Frederica is literally Rika, Lambdadelta seems like Sakoto or Takano (though more like Sakoto), and So should I watch the anime or read the manga. Though not preferred I might also try to read the VN if I do ever find the game translated in english in torrents. Looking at MAL, the people that read the manga/VN hate the anime because the adaptation was absolute bullshit.
I also take recommendations for any anime that is similar to Higurashi.
