I try to sit through one episode of Black Clover on Toonami and I turn it off after 10 minutes of it. This has to be the most cliche thing that I have ever seen in an anime in a long time. This feels like a Dollar Tree version of Naruto when I try to watch it. Not to mention the screaming made my ears bleed.
This video explains the problems, but yeah, Black Clover has gotten a LOT of shit for being so cliche. MHA uses cliches but the rather unique American superhero setting and likeable cast make people ignore that. Especially as Deku's a very mild protagonist

It does make me happy that older franchises like Devilman, Jojo and Parasyte can be successful in today's fandom.

So, Clear Card.
I love it. Except for the fact Kero went from a Super Daidouji Entertainment System to a Boxstation 5X and everyone went from brick and flip-phones to Durian and Automaton smartphones in roughly 300 DAYS. Also it appears that this is anime continuity, not manga continuity. Which means Meiling might show up! |

So I was too preoccupied with other stuff late this past year to really think or look at anything else, so I didn't get to look back at the crap I watched this year. I guess I'll do that now.
Series I watched in 2017: Gyakkuou Burai Kaiji: Ultimate Survivor (The back end of it at least) Gyakkyou Burai Kaiji: Hakairoku-hen JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken Chaos;Child 3-gatsu no Lion (second cour) Youjo Senki Nobunaga no Shinobi (second cour) ACCA: 13-ku Kansatsu-ka Gabriel DropOut Demi-chan wa Kataritai Koro-sensei Quest! ClassicaLoid (second cour) Kobayashi-san Chi no Maid Dragon NHK ni Youkoso! Jojo no Kimyou na Bouken: Stardust Crusaders Ryuu no Haisha (not actually a series) Detroit Metal City Shingeki no Kyojin Season 2 Fukumenkei Noise Little Witch Academia Cinderella Girls Gekijou Shirobako JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken: Diamond wa Kudakenai Trigun Gakkatsu! Second Season Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu Owarimonogatari 2nd Season Kemono Friends Digimon Universe: Appli Monsters (last 3 cours) Centaur no Nayami Made in Abyss Aho Girl Tsurezure Children Kakegurui Kubikiri Cycle Jigoku Shoujo Mahoujin GuruGuru Love Live Sunshine Second Season Cinderella Girls Gekijou Second Season Houseki no Kuni Shoujo Shuumatsu Ryouko (though I actually just watched the final episode just now) 3-gatsu no Lion Second Season (first cour) 66% of Fireball Humorous And like 3 episodes of Sakurasou no Pat na Kanojo And a number of movies and specials Some stuff. Not as much as in previous years, but I did read a shit ton of manga this year (and made a ton of progress with toku) so my attention was somewhat divided. My goal this year was to finally finish the ptw list I've had for now near damn half a decade. If I hadn't gotten sidetracked after starting Sakurasou two months ago, I probably would have accomplished that goal. That show's the last one left, but I don't know when I'll have the time now. Still pretty preoccupied with other stuff, and watching more anime is just not a priority right now. The last episode of Shouju Shuumatsu Ryouko I watched today is pretty much the first I've watched this year. Which also means I'm behind on some seasonals and have yet to start some new ones this season. Gonna be spending some time playing catchup once I have more time to spare on it.

So I watch the first two episodes of Inuyashiki and it's petty good so far. It feels like had Japan did their own version of The Six Million Dollar Man (No Kamen Rider does not count since KR predates TSMDM). I do like some of it's black comedy too.

Made in Abyss was great and I really can't wait for more. Don't have time to pick up the manga right now, but the desire is strong.
Going to start Land of the Lustrous soon.
