Hi! Has anyone here watched both the original Urusei Yatsura from 1981 and the remake from 2022? How do the two compare? I'm curious to hear about impressions and opinions.

I have been re-listening to the soundtrack of the original series, and many scenes came suddenly to mind. It was absolutely hilarious; I could compare it with Konosuba, but with ten times more craziness...

(If you also long for the soundtracks: https://archive.org/details/urusei-yatsura-ost Check out this as well, faithful companion since 2000: https://www.furinkan.com/uy/)

I was watching new episode of one piece and i I saw Luffy shocked after seeing joyboy’s haki but I don’t know why I think that Luffy was not shocked that how powerful joyboy’s haki is he was shocked because a robot was using haki and in the end we saw imu on his knees afraid and i don’t think that joyboy’s only haki can make imu on his knees it’s more likely that when imu felt joyboy’s haki he remember the fight with him and got PTSD form his haki What’s your thoughts on this?

So I never got deep into anime but I’ve been slowly working through my backlog of mostly Studio Ghibli movies and this morning Grave of the Fireflies jumped out as sounding interesting.

I was surprised to see it looks like there are THREE different English dubs and was wondering which is everyone’s favorite or if there is a fan consensus on which is “the best” version.

I assume the original Japanese with subtitles is the best way to watch it and I will probably rewatch it that way myself, I’ll be watching with someone who English is a second language and just can’t keep up with subtitles.

I enjoy anime, however, I feel anime has been on a quality decline over the past few years. They are hollow shells of new seasons, clones of other popular anime, generic and uninspired stories, etc.

Anyone else feel this way?

P.s. I'm TIRED of highschool themed anime omg go away

After watching the live-action adaptation on Netflix I decided to check out the anime.

I'm watching on Hulu so I might not be able to see all the episodes but that's okay since it's so long anyway 😂

I'm in the Alabasta Arc as of writing this.

I love that Let's Go Karaoke is blending thriller elements with comedy and slice of life; the story so far is portrayed in a sensible way so far, I enjoy the nuanced facial expressions and subtler body language. They've nailed Kyoji Narita role in the narrative, I enjoy the blend of conflict/bromance that Satomi Oka is experiencing when interacting with Kyoji.

It makes me wonder if they can maintain the correct tone for this anime throughout the airing (feels like an 11-12 episode anime). I'm also getting curious enough to read the manga afterward to see what the key differences are!

The Bugle Call is an incredible manga but its at threat of being cancelled. I was recommended this youtube video that explains the situation https://youtu.be/tGnOKJD4flo

So im watching Dead Dead Demon's Dededede Destruction and you have these characters that are seniors in high school that then start university but the way the characters behave if the show did not tell me I would think they were junior high going into high school.

The OVAs are set in the Bubblegum Crisis universe, but I decided to try them out because I knew they were side stories and all pretty short, so it seemed like a way to check out part of the franchise without having to invest into watching a whole show.

Each OVA is about a half hour long and really is just a vignette set in the far flung year of 2027 where Toyko has become a cyberpunk hellscape.

It isn't a slick and glossy kind of cyberpunk either, everything is truly gross and worn down, often with a heavy brown palette and grime and graffiti everywhere.

The AD Police are a police force that is a step above normal police and handle humanoid robots ("boomers") and people who are so heavily cyber-augmented that they may as well be boomers.

Each OVA packs in a heaping of violence and horniness, though the later is usually mixed with the former is ways meant to be more offputting than enjoyable.

My favorite was the third OVA, which is a somehow more cynical version of Robocop.

I was getting whiffs of cost cutting in how some of the scenes were forced to cut to stills with sound effects, but the story was despite that well told and creepy enough to hold my attention.

I recommend all three OVAs for any fans of cyberpunk or dystopian media.

It starts with a drink. It ends with a robot army, a galactic war, and Fry making out with an alien dolphin.

This isn’t just an episode—it’s an escalation. The kind of chaos you don’t notice until the rewatch hits harder.

Futurama doesn’t do filler. Even its absurd arcs reflect something about us: • War culture. • Escapism. • Romantic confusion. • Power spirals. • And of course, Bender leading a revolution in a crown made of scrap.
