I am once again thinking about the sexual metaphors in Dungeon Meshi, that never feel obscene but perfect for the tone, and the similarities it draws between the feelings of hunger, lust, and love. Dungeon Meshi is a real batshit crazy, horn dog dream of a treat and I can not reccomend it enough if you are looking to see psycho-sexual horror in a drawn format

Another really fun episode with some great Maomao moments.

Creepy one eye glass dude from last week is back and looks like he’s taken an interest in Maomao after overhearing some people talking about her exploits.. really bad vibes from him.

“People naturally pay attention to stories that are interesting” “you always cut me off mid sentence” 😭 man why Maomao always gotta do my boy Jinshi so dirty. No wonder he get insecure about her lol.

The pufferfish poisoning case was really interesting and still relevant today. In many parts of SEA it’s still eaten as a delicacy and very much runs the risk of severe illness or death. Just a couple of months ago, my mom was telling me about a lady who went to a restaurant and ended up dying from eating it. Why you’d risk your life for some food I have no idea, but it is a thing

Love how Maomao just tests the potentially poisonous seaweed with absolutely no hesitation whatsoever. She’s a riot

Speaking of stupidity, killing your brother over inheritance stuff is also a tale as old as time and looks like the case was as open and shut as that. As soon as Basen and Maomao got there and the young master got all suspicious, I knew it had to be him.

Case might have been predictable, but Maomao’s faces and antics during this episode made it great. Jinshi bashing his head up against the wall because of how cute Maomao’s maid cafe style greeting was.. don’t blame him at all lol.

Yea, this Lakan dude is a POS. Bragging about considering raping a courtesan because she didn’t want you, and “lowering her value” what a scumbag. The courtesan shown in the flashback almost seems like she could be Maomao’s mom with the same coloured hair, similar personality etc… I wonder.. I doubt the inheritance puzzle he wants her help with is as simple as he’s made it out to be too.

Next episode should be really interesting

Sorting Mononogatari: Malevolent spirts

Based on the @sortinghatchats​​ system leaning on @wisteria-lodge​​ explanations and terms.

This is just an excellent little series. You have enemies to friends as an actual premise and purpose of the story, not just a plot point or side dish, found family, main guy and girl being actual foils for each other with budding romance and the conflicts between human and spirit worlds. While doing that it's actually quite character focused with slice of life elements.

Hyoma Kunato is a very interesting badger primary defined mainly by his total dehumanisation of said spirits, called tsukumogami. After losing his older brother and sister to a brutal attack of supposedly peaceful spiritual beings in need of guidance with the occasional troublemaker or two, he sees them as threats and monsters and attacks them on sight, actual situation be damned. That’s what prompts his grandfather to send him away to a a group of six tsukumogami that live with permission as humans and act like a family to an adopted human girl.

This is a big challenge for poor Hyoma that beautifully showcases his lion secondary. Hyoma is absolutely honest and straightforward about his feelings and intentions. He waltzes right to the family he is supposed to spend the next year with, introducing himself: “I hate you and I’m only holding out from destroying you to be polite”. This wins him no favours of course, with Botan, the human in charge of the tsukumogami freaking out on him, giving him a deadline to learn to work with them or leave, absolutely horrified by his attitude and prejudice. Are they really prejudice when he has such good reasons?

Anyway, the family is actually hilarious, very friendly, emotional, indulgent, carefree, while doing a dirty business of catching their own kind and making enemies with everyone out of love for their little human charge. They don’t get equal screen times, but I would like to sort at least the most prominent ones.

Nagi is the hot-headed main fighter and adult looking guy besides the two teens, the dreamy leader lady and the stoic mute older guy. He is a fine lion secondary himself - he reacts to Hyoma with a nice straightforward “fight me” right then and there. For some reason this actually helps though. Hyoma and Nagi speak the same language and Nagi appreciates the directness. When the rest of the family becomes (rightfully) insulted and irritated, Nagi offers up a helping hand in completing tasks and giving Hyoma a chance. Mainly because he notices that Hyoma is concerned about Botan, their human charge and can respect him for that. Botan is his snake main person. Actually without more information the whole family strikes me as very snake, being so devoted to sacrificing their good reputations and any chance to return to the spirit world and do work they objectively don’t like and that feels like treachery to them for their little human mistress - and their loyalty to each other.

Hyoma’s dehumanising badger primary quickly realises this family might be different, but they become more of an exception than a rule. Being with them makes him more curious, but his trauma induced bloodlust looks for the wrong kind of tsukumogami that kill humans, and gets insanely excited upon finding them. His goal of finding the killer of his siblings gives the series direction and him an overreaching goal, but what strikes me as particularly healthy badger about him is his reasoning behind his work: he wants to prevent further tragedies like the one he had to go through. He wants to save people by eradicating the dangerous kind of tsukumogami. His external goal of revenge actually doesn’t take over like a snake’s would, and it’s rather community and good of the many based like a badger and not a lion’s and it’s feeling based, so not bird’s.

Also Hyoma’s badger love for tradition and politeness is very interesting in contrast with his lion directness. It makes him look uptight, serious, mature until a conflict or fight happens, where he charges right in. He also has a way to tell you really nasty honest stuff...in a super polite proper way, with a greeting, bow and introduction, apology and please at the right time. Talk about lions being able to be polite just fine.

One more character I want to talk about is Botan, the human charge. She isn’t a hunter of the tsukumogami herself, she doesn’t train insanely like Hyoma does. Grows up like a normal girl, goes to a university (did I mention this anime has an adult cast and seinen target audience?). But she isn’t actually as humanly ordinary as it seems and the normalcy she did achieve is hard-earned with great will and work on her and her family’s part. She is carrying her own moribito inside, a spirit that didn’t choose an object like the other tsukumogami to manifest in the physical world, but a human one, which is very rare and promises god-like scale of abilities. Her spirit is sleeping right now, but no one knows when and how it will wake up. Her power is an important political tool, a point of unsteady neutrality treaties and fragile power balances around the local hunter, human and spirit communities. She is constantly watched, attracting spirits and tsukumogami like a light in the dark and she will have a lot but an ordinary life.

A collection of traumatic betrayals and losses also adds up to a very burned little snake primary. Botan cares only about her family, but she is completely paralyzed by her desire to trust and not being able to. Hiding behind a cheerful attitude perfected over the years, she is scared of trusting that people won’t die, won’t get fed up with her or won’t throw her to the wolves for their own purposes. Caring about others is difficult, being attached to them, even her closest people is painful, and making friends is possible but closeness is a point of struggle and torn feelings. This being the focus of her arc seems like an argument for a snake to me for Botan to be a snake throwing herself out of her own circle.

Her secondary strikes me as badger. She is friendly and cheerful, mainly to put others at ease. Her main concerns and activities, her language so to say, seems to be caretaking. Thinking of what to make for dinner, who is doing what today, how could she help with that, how could she be useful. Her way of getting closer to Hyoma is worrying about his injuries, bringing the first aid kid, commanding him to be careful with himself. It’s inviting him to breakfast, asking if he is tired, thinking about his needs. And she wants to be fair to him even at the beginning, when he is still very edgy and hostile towards the people she loves most, and that’s something.

We could also count Tsubaki of the Kadamori hunter clan as a double snake. In contrast to Botan’s snake, Tsubaki is only concerned with herself though and anything that would bring her pleasure, relief from boredom or a bit of fun. Her secondary is a confident playful actoress though, being charming or trustworthy and serious whatever the serious requires or playing the dumb spoiled heir or a girly confident friend to Botan while following her own agendas. 

Hyoma - badger / lion

Botan - burned snake / lion 

Nagi - snake / lion

Tsubaki - snake / snake

Tsurune s2

[Sorry for my baby english] Does 12 ep is the end and 13ep is a special?

Tsurune story by Kotoko Ayano is so good and Kyoto Animation destroyed it. I can't believe how bad animeTsurune is, and they still call it adaptation. This anime has nothing to do with adaptation, it's completely different story, everything is different (story, personality, events, relationship). KyoAni made this story ridiculous, boring and homophobic.

Tsurune is my favorite story and I had high hopes for season 2. I thought they'll do better than season 1. Ohh I was sooo wrong. Director really said: "Adaptation? What's that? *reads* That's too good, and gay, ew- *trows light novel into trash can*". Too many ridiculous moments like Minato forgot how to shoot, Minato hurts his nail so Seiya freaks out like Minato was dy'ing, Seiya-Nikaido "pee" moment (wtf was that?), etc. Most dialogues were on kindergarden level or weird - It feels like writers didn't have ideas about what characters should talk. Homophobic - yes, KyoAni got rid of every gay moment, and LN has it a lot! Director Takuya Yamamura is disgusting. Tsurune is about Minato and Masaki relationship, their bond, fate. Weird things happening to Minato and Masaki is there to protect him. Kyudo is right next to it. KyoAni completely disposed of MasaMina relationship. AnimeMasaMina feels like they're strangers, in whole season 2 we got only few seconds of strict master-pupil moment and that is it. They're not close, not a lil bit. Minato not thinking about Masaki all the time, about his body, touch, their alone time, how he wants Masaki only to himself, how he's afraid of losing him. We didn't get Minato' confessions and Masaki's scar doesn't mean anything. Masaki has more screen time with everyone else, especially with Seiya and Nikaido, than Minato! Minato doesn't feel like MC, he's like an emotionless ghost in this season, MC is Seiya, Nikaido and Shu right after him. KaiSei, RyoNao and SaseMoto also don't exist. So yeah, no boys relationships screentime but we got a lot of girls screentime and even het love…Takuya Yamamura is really disgusting. What are they gonna do with book 3 and Masaki's real name, past and family? Because right now, when they got rid of MasaMina relationship, Masaki's name doesn't mean anything also cuz it's connected with Minato. I have a feeling that season 3 will be worse than s2. KyoAni gonna ship Masaki with 'that' woman.

Artstyle, animation, music, soundeffects - I'm on my knees! No words, 100/10, chef's kiss, delightful, respect. I have only good things to say.

Imagine if we could get an adaptation of LN, all that good moments from LN on screen - how popular this anime would be! Pls, Kotoko Ayano don't listen to KyoAni, keep writing the novel like you did with 1&2 book.

Anime Tsurune s2: art & animation - 100/10 music & soundeffects - 100/10 adaptation - 1/10 writing - negative/10 overall - 4/10 *crying*

Now I'm thinking to draw some moments from the novel in manga form, hmm… If some LNreader read also this post, pls leave in the comment what are your fav moments from LN :)

Yea I love this show already. Don’t think I’d ever heard of the LN. Great first episode though. Poor Usato, bro’s just been thrust into the craziest situation imaginable

Bumping into two of the most popular kids on the way out of school should’ve been an indication that something bad was gonna happen lol. At least they were both friendly and ended up being totally normal high schoolers

Instead of panicking when being summoned to another world, Suzune straight up embraces it and is excited to get pulled to the other side lol. Stark contrast to the boys

Seems like the situation is pretty desperate in this world. The king actually comes off as a really nice person, just in a bad situation and in urgent need of reinforcements. I appreciate that he promised to send them home ASAP too. Again, Suzune is just geeking out the whole time 😂

Traditional fantasy world appraisal scene.. what’s bad about the orb lighting up green? Well, looks like that’s for healing magic which means Rose, the recovery team leader is going to be after Usato. Hilarious sequence with her chasing after him. All Usato had to do was be quiet until she left the room and he opened his mouth lmao. At least he gets to be trained by mommy dommy

The dorm and crew he’ll be living with seem great, can’t wait to see what type of training Rose puts him through and learn more about the world.

First episode definitely hooked me. Art is gorgeous, Shin-El snapped on the production values. It’s funny and has likeable characters. Suzune and Ross are hot. Let’s see where it goes
