    I'm watching the anime as it comes out. Like, I'm fucking furious that I'm watching it and I hate it

    but it's such a well made anime I can't tear myself away, but I'm fucking seething the whole time

        I remember the first time watching it when it came out, sitting in a dark corner of my room and high as fuck. The titans and giant troll things, they freaked the fuck out of me and I was absolutely blown away by the Lynchian level creepiness. I stopped watching it after the second season, I think. Got Anime as fuck.

          What solidified it for me was when Eren seemingly fucking died in like episode 5. I thought I had actually been tricked by an anime and Armin was secretly actually the protagonist all along, but then...

          Same problem as Promised Neverland where it has incredible vibes in the first half then shits the bed with the genre pivot

            You should check out Ranking of Kings. I hope I'm not setting you on the same path again, but it's been a delight so far aside from the usual anime thing of monarchism

            Especially the episode that came out yesterday which might be my favorite episode of any anime ever

                It starts out a little slow but don't let that fool you, it's pure fire

                Btw here's a link to it for free, this is the ultimate anime site https://zoro.to/watch/ranking-of-kings-17195?ep=83664

                  Bless, I've been looking for a new one since 4anime got killed. I'll give it a watch this weekend!

                    big time! This site gets anime like the day they come out and has fucking EVERYTHING ever made

                    My only gripe is there's no way to set a default playback speed, and if you're watching the english dub there are no subtitles possible

            Yeah, I'm not big on anime but I gave it a shot and really liked it at first. Then the genre pivot happens and you're like, 'yup, it's anime alright'. You're not going to get some paradigm shifting show, you'll have the same Asian soap opera tropes with the cute bunny talk, constant crying, and absolutely inane dialogue.

              Have you ever watched Hunter x Hunter? It's probably my overall favorite at this point. Its a shounen where the final big baddie isn't defeated through some bullshit powerup and the protagonist wins in the end, but through dialogue and philosophy (and also fighting)

                U mean the chimera ant arc? Because other than that while I love HxH its politics and ideology just rub me the wrong way. It's colonization distilled into anime form with cool fights and powers.

                  What did the other arcs have to do with colonization? They're mostly smaller scale and follow our characters and friends around?

        I actually stopped watching after season 2 or 3, then heard about the cluster fuck fasho ending and thought I'd watch it and dunk on it, but it overpowered me with excellent direction pacing and voice acting
