"To anyone complaining that Delicious in Dungeon starts off too slow, just..." puts on sunglasses "....let it cook."
-
The deaf anime having more focus on the lips because of lip-reading etc. is such a brilliant stylistic choice to reflect character pov, that i think that decision alone might make me watch it.
-
The contrast between Dungeon Meshi and Made In Abyss is quite funny if you've read the manga and know that the two are actually much more similar than at first glance
-
Jeff: Meiji Gekken is mostly for Japanese history buffs Me: currently writing my Masters thesis on Meiji Japan well that was lucky
-
These are the reviews I wait all season for. While I probably won’t check out most of these, it’s always great to hear what new shows are out there!
-
I'm just gonna say it. Delicious in Dungeon is going to be fantastic. I've read the entire manga. It's amazing. Please, please, please don't sleep on this anime. It's more than just about cooking gourmet monster meals inside of a dungeon.
-
Thank you for giving “A Sign of Affection” the love it deserves!! As a junior VA in Japan who participated in this show (episodes 1 and 2), this really warmed my heart🥹 Thanks Geoff!
-
The sentence "There are 10 isekai this season" shouldn't make me as happy as it does. Then again, I am isekai trash.
-
I was so, so ready to be performatively indignant about the absence of Bang Bravern from this list. I should have had more faith.

Last years season: YOU ARE MY SPECIAL 😈 This years season: Bling bang bling bling born 🕺🎶🗣️

I am totally here for Bang Bravern seemingly setting up a love triangle between two men and an alien mecha as earth is being invaded by other alien machines. We already have Bravern gushing over Isami, blushing when Lewis wanted to ride him and then uh the ED . I can tell it’s gonna be a lot of fun the whole way through.
-
The link to your Shield Hero roast after you mention the atrocities of slave harems is the most underrated joke of the video
-
I actually really like the character designs in A Sign of Affection and especially the way they animated the mouths. It really helps emphasize that we're experiencing the world through Yuki's perspective, lip-reading along with her. Since anime as a medium doesn't usually overemphasize lip matching, it's a really wonderful detail. I'll also say, if you like A Sign of Affection I can HIGHLY recommend the manga "I Hear the Sunspot," which is a BL romance story with a deaf/HOH character and is similarly detailed in how it portrays disability and specifically diversity in the deaf community (I think there may also be a live action tv adaptation but I haven't seen it yet!). What a great year so far for shojosei in anime! And now we can look forward to Honey Lemon Soda too!
-
the key factor in me deciding to give Bravern a chance is the fact that his theme song is in universe canon playing while he battles 😂 you cant get any better than that
-
Cherry Magic is a gem. The live action is also full of good feelings.
-
"Where did this song come from!?" was the exact moment I knew Bravern was For Me.
-
YAY DUNGEON MESHI MENTION! Ryoko Kui is a master of her craft, in my opinion. To all those new to Delicious in Dungeon, please give it a chance. It truly grows into a wonderfully made story, that builds on its world and characters in a satisfying way.
-
SO glad cherry magic made it onto this list, the drama is an absolutely iconic classic!!! i hope everyone has fun with it!!
