I’m rewatching it and I’m actually loving it so much and enjoying it more than I did the first time I watched it

But there’s a lot of filler including entire filler arcs

At some point I can enjoy filler or dislike it depending on how good it is so does Fairy Tail’s filler improve the anime experience or not

Illustrations from the light novel or manga of Rudeus specifically

I’m currently caught up with the latest episode of Mushoku Tensei

I’m afraid of searching for images myself You know that old curse where you type a character name and “death” suddenly appears next to their name

Could you guys help me find a way to get illustrations from the novel up to the point the anime has reached?

I only wrote it because it keeps coming up so often It feels like the value of a series is measured by how close it is to Attack on Titan

You might watch another series and not find the same strengths that AoT has but still enjoy it for completely different reasons

I hate this reduction of artistic works and what's worse are the people who reinforce it by saying things like "What have you done to yourself You ruined anime and other works for yourself"

I've been watching Demon Slayer and what really drew me in was the beginning of the first season because it had that amazing traditional Japanese style

But from the second season up to the latest movie it turned into a light show I mean it lost that eerie unsettling feeling and started to feel like it was about superheroes and things like that I hope you understand what I mean

I don't care whether the anime uses bows swords or even those huge spiked clubs but I want the fights to have a Japanese style and I want the monsters to look Japanese as well

If you don't understand what I mean I can explain it better in the comments

Besides being known for its violence and killing off so many characters Akame ga Kill was also famous for its AMVs

I actually discovered Akame ga Kill through AMVs especially during its peak popularity around 2017 to 2021

Nowadays a lot of edits are just phonk with shake effects which honestly isn't my taste

I really miss the old style of AMVs They were everywhere they were fun and they matched the atmosphere of Akame ga Kill perfectly

I used to see Akame Mine Esdeath Tatsumi and Sheele in so many mix AMVs alongside characters from other anime

I'd like to know what's the best Akame ga Kill edit you've ever seen

Sometimes I choose a song for an edit but the beats are extremely close together

The transitions end up being very short and incredibly fast

Then I see other people making edits with the exact same song and hitting the same beats yet their transitions look much smoother and fit the song better

I'd like to know how they do that

I think a huge part of my enjoyment comes from setting the right atmosphere

For example if I watch a dark psychological horror anime on a rainy night with thunder I'll probably enjoy it regardless of its actual quality

At this point preparing the atmosphere has become an essential part of watching any anime for me

I've seen people say they watch anime while waiting for something else and I find that really hard because it's difficult to focus on the anime when something else is going on

Lately I've been traveling a lot for work and other reasons and sometimes I stay in small apartments and tired where it's hard to really get immersed in an anime

It ends up feeling like I'm just staring at the screen instead of truly getting into its atmosphere and focusing on it

I don't want something like Solo Leveling where the monsters are basically a joke to the main character teamwork doesn't matters and the dungeons feel as generic as they come

A good example of what I'm looking for is when I rewatched Mushoku Tensei before the new season It only had one real dungeon battle the Hydra fight yet I came away completely satisfied It was excellent in every way

I want an anime where the dungeon genuinely feels like a dangerous place where the team understands that and works together with clearly defined roles and where the monster itself is terrifying

And if the protagonist is alone then at least I don't want the kind of story where they easily beat everything I want the dungeon to actually feel dangerous
