When 30-year-old Daikichi Kawachi returns home for his grandfather's funeral he learns about the existence of Rin Kaga, his grandfather's illegitimate six-year-old daughter by an unknown mother. The girl is an embarrassment to all his relatives and is treated like an outcast.

Annoyed by their attitudes, Daikichi decides to take care of Rin himself, even though he is single and has no experience in raising a child. As Rin becomes part of his life, Daikichi experiences the hardships of being a single parent.

Usagi drop comes across as a manga I would want to read, I love interpersonal drama. Saw a few clips of the anime on tiktok, it seemed wholesome and heartwarming.

But wait

Ten years later, Rin is a high school student and the remainder of the series focuses on her trying to figure out how to deal with her feelings for Kouki, and her decision for a career. Rin discovers that she is not actually related to Daikichi by blood, and the series ends with Rin wanting to have a child with Daikichi.

Why are they like this??

The official website for the Kemono Friends stage play adaptations announced on Sunday that the franchise will get a new stage play titled Butai "Kemono Friends" Japari Stage! Kimi no Ashioto ga Mata Kikoeta ("Kemono Friends" Stage Play Japari Stage! I Could Hear Your Footsteps Once Again) that will run in Tokyo at the Shinagawa Prince Hotel Club eX from November 8-17.

The overall franchise also revealed a visual for its 10th anniversary. The below visual features the text, "Do you, like Kemono?"

Kemono Friends, a rough but still loved franchise had been started some near decade ago. Despite the jokes about how it being a 3D anime it still had a /calm/ vibe.

Despite the love from fans and the community of the franchise, its now reduced to being an angry birds gacha game on the phone

The feels bros...

Another season might never come but at least it was fun

Katsuhiro Otomo:

>"I don't really like the art style of most anime these days, the ones that appeal to otaku tastes. So that means I don't watch much modern anime."

Mamoru Oshii:

>"I'm not watching anything. There are zero titles I'm interested in. I mean, I'm over 65. Trying to get into anime aimed at young people is impossible. That's true for Japanese films in general, not just anime. Everything is made for a young audience."

Isao Takahata on Makoto Shinkai:

"He manipulates the hearts of socially inept young people"

From a newly-uncovered review of Hoshi no Koe:

I did not appreciate it at all, I think it's just a "tricky" one-sided deception for young people. But it seems to have tickled and touched the heartstrings of today's socially inept youth through its clever expression, so it sold well and won several awards. In short, the author was one of those who, by becoming a creator himself, succeeded in "living in reality without graduating from or escaping from such a world," and was supported by young people who did not want to "graduate" or "confirm their own non-growth," and this whole phenomenon was supported by the "information media industry" and its promoters.

I must hasten to say that this is an evaluation at this stage, and it is quite possible that the author, who has started on the path of an artist, will begin to create more socially conscious works in the future, thanks to his social life.

Isao Takahata, "Animation, Occasionally" (Iwanami Gendai Bunko, p. 208)

I personally find it weird . /tv/ hates nu-cinema, /pw/ hates nu-wrestling and even /sp/ admits soccer isn't what it used to be. But the anime fandom (be it /a/ or /r/anime) is the only community that defends nu-slop to this extent. Sure, there are some detractors but people nowhere what's happening in other media.

Funnier still is the right wing faction within the anime community . Amongst other things I've seen

1. Western weebs who want to protect precious Japan from the savage third worlders, Jews and wokes.

2. Third world weebs who want to protect precious Japan from the degenerate capitalist westoids, Jews and wokes.

Any criticism of nu-anime often gets you clumped together with either group .

Anyway, the anons in those threads are absolutely malding .

!kino !anime enjoy .

This is really funny I think

It's with the heaviest of hearts that I announce the passing of Nicholas Charles Dupree, long-time editorial contributor to ANN, This Week in Anime co-host, and the funniest guy I've ever met. Nick died suddenly on Sunday morning, September 22, at the age of 31, leaving behind an enviable wealth of critical reviews ripe with humor.

His humor was always accompanied by sincerity. Nick used his platform as a writer on Anime News Network and social media to share his empathy and compassion for people from all walks of life. He regularly advocated for racial and social justice causes, including support for the LGBTQ+ community. A recent example is his review work on this season's Senpai is an Otokonoko, his careful consideration while discussing Sasaki and Miyano, and contemplating additional perspectives even for more comedic fare like Life with an Ordinary Guy Who Reincarnated into a Total Fantasy Knockout. Nicholas infused his criticism with the bravery of vulnerability in a public space where folks won't hesitate to eat you alive.

Hello, everyone; thank you all for reading and supporting Nick's writing over the last seven years. I want to make sure, out of respect for Nick, his family, and his colleagues, that we do not engage is speculation regarding the circumstances of his death in this thread. This is the place to share memories of how his work and presence affected you.

Started watching 'Giji Harem', its alright so far, but it feels more like a shortform with how short the 'plots' are. Didnt watch any more of the russian girl show so far, though I will probably finish it.
