I still have 2-3 eps from the Box guy (Am I the strongest). I started the manga last year, so I knew the plot, but disn't follow up until I finish the anime...
Yeah, the show was frustrating to me. I actually feel like it could have been good, but the pacing felt way off. You can see a previous rant of mine on an episode discussion thread, but the adaptation's pacing felt super inconsistent. Props for having one of the best little sister characters in a while though.
Am I Actually the Strongest is basically Eminence in Shadow without the carefully-staged "epic" visual shots or any awareness of just how silly the concept is, in my not-so-humble opinion.
Haha, it's like you read my mind. To pull off a parody, you need to push everything to 11 and this show just really didn't go far enough in a shameless enough way to pull it off (if it was even meant to be a parody, I still can't tell).
"If I can't watch anime, then there's nothing for me to do except sleep" :D the growing otaku line :D
