Weekly anime post number 5

Last anime post has actually been exactly a week ago, how time flies, right?!?

Well sweeties, instead of sleeping I just watched 'The Idaten Deities Know Only Peace', and it was a wild ride. In fact I just finished it 10 minutes ago and it inspired me to make this post. It was a great anime, at no point I felt bored, always something happening you wouldnt have predicted. I just hope a second season will come, and hopefully not only in 5 years (yes I know the source material is basically at the same point as the anime). I watched some other stuff too, but I think idaten was my favorite of the anime I watched recently.

Anyways, enough about me, what did you guys watch this week? Found a new waifu? Bought a new anime figurine with removeable clothes? A new pillowcase for your dakimakura? Tell us all about it in this great thread that everyone waited for and loves!

@Aevann pls sticky UwU

The new Higurashi is one of the only things I've ever watched that made me actually mad watching it.

Idaten was great though.

Gou was actually pretty good. Brand new story that picks up after where Kai/Rei ended with a good mystery with enough clues that some people were able to figure it out.

Sotsu was 13 episodes of mostly recap mixed in with cuts of the villain making evil faces and then 2 episodes of Umineko chapter 8 bullshit (saying this as someone that actually mostly liked Umineko). Spontaneous Dragon Ball Z type shit that you're just supposed to handwave away with a "it's witches or something, idk" and finishing with the most underserved "happy ending" I've seen in a long time. The vast majority of the main cast gets completely sidelined. It actively shits on the themes and message of the original series, all for the sake establishing a shared universe with Umineko (and Ciconia) that we already knew about and doesn't actually matter to the story. Apparently 07 wanted to write it because he wanted to let some of the characters from the original have some redemption, which I actually think is a neat thing to do, finding a world where even characters like Teppei and Rina turn out alright. But his story to get there absolutely ruined a main character and it was not worth it.

Yes I am still seething, as you can tell.

Sorry ma'am, looks like his delusions have gotten worse. We'll have to admit him,
