I've been really enjoying Sousou no Frieren and by enjoying I mean feeling like I want to cry.

I'll need to find something more upbeat next.

Legend of the Seeker. It’s a Xena warrior princess clone from Australia with insanely bad gender politics and bad writing throughout. I’m continuously impressed by how dumb the story writing is. Never once has a plot line been set up at the beginning of an episode and not been resolved by the end, they’d probably forget about it if they tried. Also there’s these leather clad bondage bitches who have magic dildos that inflict pain when they touch your skin, they rock

I did not notice this was the anime comm hentai-free

I looked it up and discovered it's based on the sword of truth series; if you don't know anything about the book series, it's basically written by a hateful libertarian and has a scene where he justifies the slaughter of pacifists. Also lots of war crimes, terrorism and torture, by the good guys.

Oh yeah the good guys are so so clearly the villains. Good to know it’s evil storytelling and not just dumb storytelling

if you think the show is bad you should suffer through a review of the books it's based on

Legend of the Seeker

Terry is neither good nor kind (kind of an insane, pouty little dummy too; apparently his wife vets the people who talk to him because he can't handle criticism)
