    Bleach was animated and released weekly and had to make sure to not catch up to the manga, same as Naruto, One Piece etc... This common practise back then was the reason for drawn out fights, and such. I think the current arc is already animated completely, so the fights should be better paced. Haven't seen it yet though. But yeah Bleach is full of mid 2000s shonen tropes and so are the fights. I think I never made it past the Soul Society arc before I overdosed on these tropes

    One of the most goated openings. Ppl got offended with Master Roshi on super.

    Can't wait for the Chainsawman cancelation process later in the story

    Yup. At the start of shippuuden they started to animate 2 episodes per chapter instead of 2 chapters per episode. I quit and read the manga.

    Just got caught up with my hero. Now I’m starting spy x family. Read nothing but good things about it. Once I get up to date with that I think I’m going to start dorohedoro. I also want to start “the ancient magus bride” & “Seraph Of The End”. Wit studio has put out a handful of anime that I absolutely love. So I’ll be checking out those two. My current watch list is


    bleach: thousand year blood war
    Chainsaw man
    My hero season 6
    mob psycho 3
    Spy x family

    to watch list :

    Dorohedora
    the ancient magus bride
    Seraph Of The End

    I’m I think at episode 11 on spy x family . My thoughts so far. The animation is wonderful. And it has a oddly even amount of jokes, emotion , action. It all really blends together so nicely. There’s not too much of one thing . I do wish there was just a little more action. It doesn’t ever seem exciting but it’s intriguing the entire time . And a odd twist is that as you the viewer knows what’s going on as you’re watching . There’s no big plot twist to come. The plot twist is the other characters finding out about one another . I’ll compare this to my current favorite anime vinnland saga. Watching that I NEEDED MORE!!! More more more . Binged the whole season in like one setting with me sitting there like why did it have to end?! I need more. However spy x family didn’t grab me like that. But it’s still a very smooth and enjoyable watch so far.

    Nice to watch list. Magus Bride is in my favorites, Dorohedoro is very good too (do not stop at the start becasue of the art, it looks different but when you watch it fluently it looks good in the end). Also so sad seraph didn't yet get a season 2 I liked it. Though it might be because the manga released chapters monthly or so. Then again it's been a few years and still no announcement

    I just started seraph. Taking a break from spy family. I really like it so far… and is this not season 2? https://www.justwatch.com/us/tv-show/seraph-of-the-end/season-2

    Season 3 didn’t go into production because there was no manga at the time to adapt to. You have to put into consideration that the whole Covid bs put the break lights on a lot of anime for 1-2 years. If you add the 1-2 years it would take to put out enough manga for a third season and Covid on top of it. I wouldn’t count this anime as finished or forgotten . Wit studios has also been busy with AOT, vinnland saga, spy x family and whatever else they have going on.
