  1. So going through my list and that is a wrap on Fall 2025 anime season.. One Punch Man S3.. where to start.. Honestly watch the first episode and the 12th episode and call it a day. Everything else was a snooze fest... and yes I know it stuck to the source material.. but this was just boring. I have a bunch more to wrap, next on my list is finishing May I ask for one last thing, then probably Marie. and a few other I can't remember off the top of my head.
  2. Wrapped up Campfire Cooking in Another World with My Absurd Skill Season 2.. not bad. I think the premise might be getting abit long in the tooth, but I would still watch a S3 if they dropped one. And I finally found a title from this last season, that as of at least Ep 4 has me happily coming back for more.. May I Ask For One Final Thing? I am enjoying this series quite abit, its got more action then No Punch Man S3.. just sayin. Hopefully it doesn't crap the bed in the end.. but if it does.. shhhh.. let me enjoy this brief respite from meh.. this Fall 2025 anime season.. 😆
  3. Another one I am way behind on.. is it worth staying with it? Isekai Quartet S3 just wrapped. Not bad, not great, but considering this season.. you get the point. I don't know much about the Shadow anime that was the addition this season, but it really felt like the odd duck out in S3.
  4. I am so far behind in this series.. its a advertisement for camping equipment with some take away value for camping tips.. If its as you say then I am just bailing on it now. Am I missing anything this season.. any sleepers?
  5. I'm not so sure about that.. I think the ending kinda went off the rails in just one episode, however it was the strongest title of this season. It has its faults, but compared to everything else this season...
  6. AC7 was... well it wasn't Assault Horizon at least. It was not good enough to keep my interest till the end. there I said it. The plot, the DLC nonsense.. I'm not holding my breath with 8, will wait for it to be out awhile before I decide to take the plunge.
  7. I think saying it was OK is kind. Absolutely nothing about it stands out, the resolution of the elf issues, the random fighting cause reasons. There was a hint of something with the village arc but it fizzled as quickly as it started. The whole OP protagonist in an isekai has been beaten to death.. this series is just more of the same.. Also wrapped up Let This Grieving Soul Retire S2.. I enjoyed it, I think it stands out from the vast nothing that was this season. There were some moments of this season where I was ready to hang it up, but it managed to keep me coming back. I'd say its worth a watch. I wrapped Tora Dora.. I have the original NIS America release in the large book style boxset, the artwork for its time stood out but the character designs now are showing their age. I'd recommend this to anyone who likes the Rom-Com style series, it does dabble at the end with the Harem like setup but it resolves itself pretty well. Not gonna lie I was rooting for Ami, never understood the fascination with loli characters. Next on my list.. maybe Last Exile.. that is a series I haven't cracked open since the early 00's
  8. so back to this season I guess.. Nageki no Bourei wa Intai shitai - Let this grieving soul retire.. or something like that. This one isn't bad, the MC has the whole Tyler from Irresponsible Capt Tylor vibe going. Not sure how its gonna shake out, but the last few episodes of S2 have been pretty amusing. Towa no Yugure - another not bad overall. The last episode though pulled a Charlotte on us dumping an entire seasons worth of lore and plot in 1 episode. The highly dubious choices made without ethical considerations was what had me. I'll stick around till the end at this point.
  9. Blandathon is probably the nicest description to this season I could use. Even One Punch Man S3 is a relative snooze fest. I've turned back to my personal collection, I just re watched Dual! Parallel Trouble Adventure. Its probably been 20+ years since the last time I cracked these DVDs open. Its pretty clear this was an Eva clone. The nods to Eva are everywhere especially early on, but from the same studio and staff that did Tenchi Muyo.. so Tenchgelion. Not a bad show though overall, very much a product of its time. Next up for me.. ToraDora.. another series I have not watched in many years.
  10. I'm abit delayed was doing some traveling.. I enjoyed Season 2, I honestly expected they would wrap this season considering how fast it was going. They ended up ending with the Coffin Gathering.. not the Haniel cosplay. Also wrapped Dandadan, the final episode was pure win.. no way it ends on that note..
  11. I had a chance to do some reading coming back from my PA to Chicago roadtrip. It sounds like the Hemi is not dead, and jeep is apparently offering or going to offer it in certain models/trims. I've seen other articles corroborate the same information but I do not know if its available now or planned. I would also concur with not wanting to daily a car from the 60s-80s they are fun to play with but can be very unforgiving and temperamental when they want to be. It is worth noting that cars from the early to mid 00s are very much in demand right now.. assuming they have been taken care of and its not a hot mess. I've been watching vehicles like Rav4s from the early teen years very much in demand currently. Best guess for that is the current general build quality and pricing issues that seem to be across the whole spectrum of car manufacturers.
  12. Nice, this one has been on my list for about a year now. Its a contender to replace my DD... I had a 1981 280ZX Turbo that met an untimely end back in the early 00s. Probably still find a pic of it on the forums if it still exits. I have been hesitant because of some of the issues Nissan has been having, that and some experience with some CVT issues on family vehicles. Might end up with one eventually if the price is right.
  13. holy moly! $4500 for a VE-1? this reminds me of ebay back in the early 00s where 1/55 strikes were basically getting gobbled up by 1 or 2 whales and driving the prices up artificially. Side note, I managed to acquire a 1/55 Matsushiro Jetfire that needs some parts.. most of my old links for these are dead.. any good sites for parts, like back packs or other random stuff for repair?
  14. if you work in the "industry" as you claim then less talking to people like chat GPT to get your point across. . The US is not Europe, and what works in China and Europe does not work here. Not even going to get into the thermal runaway issues and the fact that China has millions of EVs sitting in fields brand new and rotting. Is it even safe to drive your Tesla again? or is some whacko gonna come and vandalize it?
  15. I concur with the sentiment of mediocrity this season. There are some standouts.. Dandadan S2 - Its still entertaining. Not as good as season 1, however it has its moments. I need to play catchup only on Ep 9 as of this post. Sono Bisque S2 - Ending theme is an earworm.. I am enjoying it even with the amount of content getting cut. At the speed they are going I am willing to bet the climax is the Haniel cosplay and will probably end as abruptly as they did with the manga. Sakamoto Days S2 - nowhere near as good as S1. Its not bad, but as of late the whole plot has gone of the rails. I am current but this seems like filler to me unless it just ends with no S3. Shield Hero S4 - Actually not bad this season, I didn't think I would keep this going with the general disdain I had going from past seasons. They are still well off into the weeds at this point with the waves almost forgotten outside a mention a few episodes ago. Rascal does not dream of Santa Claus - meh. This season is going at a breakneck pace, anime only viewers god speed. LN readers.. god speed.. lol Kijin Gentoushou - I am enjoying it still. I think this is another title that started extremely strong but started to fizzle out. It probably will never be super popular but its worth a watch. Summer Pockets - I am way behind on this since I picked up the VN. I don't wanna spoil anything further, so will address once I finish the game. Futari Solo Camp - pretty meh. Its another not bad, but not good either. Basically a camping promo anime.. And a whole bunch of dropped this season, probably higher then normal.
