YuyoDrift 1540 Posted November 4, 2020 The only show I'm trying to watch is Hanyou no Yashahime: Sengoku Otogizoushi (Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon), otherwise known as the Inuyasha sequel that no one asked for. Hard to tell you if the show is good or not, the first couple episodes were kinda of filler/fan-service (not a good start) and the vibe I get is more on the lines of some sort of FanFic made into a studio anime and not a proper successor to the original show. I am very biased, so maybe it's that, but I feel they already "shat the bed" by giving the story no concrete plot 5 episodes in and the characters are a real bore (nothing special about them aside from being descendants of the previous cast).

platy 3018 Posted November 6, 2020 @YuyoDrift thanks for confirming my suspicion. I haven't picked it up yet but it looks exactly like what it is, an empty nostalgia cashgrab just like every other 90s anime revival thing going on atm. Like Cardcaptor Clear Card arc 🤮i'll try an episode or two of Yashahime just to see how bad it is for myself tho. Speaking of, you gonna watch this? Since it's only a 'remake', I'm kinda hyped...

monkeybanana4 1732 Posted November 6, 2020 I started watching Demon Slayers, and I'm enjoying the plot so far. I'm interested in the strong bond that Tanjirou and Nezuko share, and I also like Tanjirou's character. I can't wait to see what kind of role the supporting cast/side characters will play. Picked up Fruits Basket (the remake) since I remember watching the original anime many years ago. I'm curious to see how this new one will turn out, considering the anime technically never finished the plot as the manga was still ongoing at the time. Sad to hear that the new Inuyasha anime is turning out to be more fanservice than actual story plot, though. 3 platy, cultfurby and Miku70 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd still give it the 3-Episode rule, since I am being biased a bit (maybe justified, idk). You could end up liking it, but just know there is only one type of demographic that will enjoy this storyline..... 6 hours ago, platy said: Speaking of, you gonna watch this?

Not sure if my rose-tinted nostalgia glasses are gonna be judging the crap out of it, but we'll see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
platy 3018 Posted November 26, 2020 Finished JJBA part 5 and I'm sad because this series never failed to give me a much need serotonin boost. Moving onto Hunter x Hunter and I even picked up Jujutsu Kaisen because I keep hearing good things about it and the art style is pretty nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
