Sorry for the delay, but lemmy.ml seems to have recovered from their downtime now.

Hope everybody is finding things they like in the new season of anime. It is a Monday, so that means it is time for a new discussion post. Feel free to post questions, comments, criticisms here to your heart’s content. Some thought-provoking examples might be:

  • My kid loves the PreCure series, so I was wondering if “Gushing Over Magical Girls” would be another good show for them to check out.
  • Is the title “Delicious in Dungeon” referring to the food they cook or to how good Falin tastes to the dragon?
  • How does one use healing magic wrong? Can you hurt somebody by doing your magic backwards?

As always, remember to be mindful of spoilers. If you want to know more about how to handle spoilers in this community, check the guide here.

      I doubt it, though Frieren has had more staying power on the list than past shows that have briefly topped the list. I suspect it might stay on top while the show is airing, but over time I think the MAL userbase will revert to the mean of FMAB #1. I might personally think Frieren is a better show, but when you are talking about shows with thousands and thousands of scores factored in, there is a lot of resistance to change given enough time.

      No. Not a single fucking thing looks that game changing. Half of them (or more) are isekai in some way. Frieren is good, but it’s not THAT good.
