So Death Note, the big status quo change around ep 16 or so ... yea not a fan. The fun dynamic and set up that was going on is now thrown away? Did this happen in the manga too? Hopefully things pick up after this stretch because I'm not really digging this new direction
What are everyone's thoughts on this change? |

What are everyone's thoughts on this change? I have mixed feelings on the second half of Death Note. Definitely inferior to the first half, but the ending makes it almost worth it.

Just started Food Wars. Two episodes in and I'm not convinced I'll enjoy it. I was hoping for something fun with some competition elements and some slice of life elements that's easy to watch. Instead, everything is exaggerated to the point where I have trouble getting invested and it's pushing my suspension of disbelief (If he's so good that he can impress the most elite palate in the world with something basic, yet he can't outcook his father...why isn't their diner more well-known?), I don't like the foodgasms, the comedy isn't really my style, and most of the characters are kind of annoying.
Should I keep going, or just drop it?

I think the show is really fun? I watched the first 4 seasons and it never went downhill or anything. It got better instead if I had to judge it.
I like the novelty of it all, that it is basically your standard anime where the characters beat each other up and the power levels get insanely unrealistic but instead of fighting physically they have cooking matches. I wouldn’t drop it after only 2 episodes, keep going. |

So if anyone does have interest in the show, don't take my advice, take it from someone who's actually seen the show, or just go for it, since that's how I watched Kamen Rider Wizard and actually did find enjoyment in it. |

I started watching Kuroko no Baske instead and this is MUCH closer to what I was in the mood for. Maybe I'll give Food Wars another go down the line, but for now I don't feel the need to keep watching it.

Finished Fate/Zero last night, really liked it. Funny how I thought it was just going to be Urobuchi being edgy from start to finish, but it wasn't edgy in the bad way, and the themes worked much better than the Godzilla Anime Trilogy. The only complaint I have is the disappointing final battle, but overall really liked it (Rider team is best team). Also, I seem to like Hikaru Midorikawa's (voice of Gridman) roles a lot.
Guess I'll watch Pacific Rim: The Black tonight. |
