I love it! It feels like a Checkov’s minigun firing smaller Checkov’s pistols.

I don’t know how it all ties together yet but I’m excited to find out. I’m guessing the reason you feel like something’s off is probably because there are multiple disconnected threads that don’t cleanly fit together, and that makes it seem a bit… scattered?

Durarara also gave me the same vibe (it’s by the same author) since it also started seemingly scattered and then each plot thread collided in the latter half of the season.

I made a couple of posts about it here as well. Hopefully there will be more active discussion threads for future episodes.

Classic Pippa

Looking back I’m not sure what I meant by base building game here. I usually use that to describe Tensura (I don’t like it personally. I dropped it after 1 season. It felt like there wasn’t any threat or anything interesting to work towards in the plot).

In the case of Honzuki I think the reason I felt bored was because the goal of the plot felt too vague. But maybe I’ll give it another try because apart from that, I 100% agree with all your points.

I made coffee jelly recently. It was really easy to do, the hardest part being the whipped cream (my arms 😭). And when I finally got to eat it I’d realised that I found my favourite dessert. Thank you Saiki K for introducing me to this heavenly flavour 🙏 (even though it took me over a year to finally get around to making it).

I watched a little over one season of Honzuki no Gekokujou and I didn’t find too interesting tbh (I only watched that many episodes because I was really bored at the time). It just felt like a “base building game” (I can’t think of any other analogy for some reason). Is there something I’m missing, like the anime not adapting the source material well? Because I see a lot of people who like but I can’t seem to understand why. To be clear, I don’t think it’s that bad but it seems more popular than it should be.

Probably the most used app on my phone lol

How’s your experience with a Linux phone? Any major issues or minor annoyances? Do you use waydroid for any Android apps? I’m considering switching but I’m not sure yet.

Unfortunately, that’s not possible on this instance. If I had known ahead of time, I would have picked a different instance.

There are many but a few that come to mind that I’ve been browsing a lot recently are:

• r/KumoDesu : The final volume (volume 16) is coming out on the 20th and I’ve started rereading the series. I actually finished reading the WN a couple of days ago (I love this series so much asdfaklmsv).
• r/IsekaiOjisan : Just plain fun
• r/Mashle : Not small but still one of my favourites. I don’t watch shonen a lot but this is a great manga.

I’ve considered hosting a couple of fediverse (and nextcloud) servers before but servers are expensive 😞
I mainly want an exact alternative to r/Anime and r/Manga for the episode discussions and I also want r/WritingPrompts and r/Animemes because those are my gotos to kill time.

Yeah. As much as I want to abandon Reddit completely if they go through with this, I’ll probably be forced to use new reddit and the official app because most communities probably wont migrate at all. There are many niche communities that I’m subscribed to, like related to a specific anime/LN series that’s not too big.

That took me a sec lol. I was wondering why the SCP Foundation was there and then I saw the rest.

I wonder if there’s an SCP Foundation related community. I couldn’t find one.

Yeah I prefer this style of interaction far more than the Mastodon style. I just never could get into the twitter style of social media.
