Heh. The first Gigguk video since I got into Honkai Impact 3rd (thanks PC client) has an ad for Honkai Impact 3rd, what are the odds. evil grin

Anyway, there are quite a few… visually interesting shows this season. Sing Yesterday and that Radio Host show particularly. That integration of Rap God was impeccable, I must say. [tup]

I've mostly been ignoring Tower of God and...I'll keep doing it because I never watch anime while it is airing, but I'll be rooting for it regardless!

Sing "Yesterday" For Me is definitely in my "Must Watch" list, though.

Honestly, I read Tower Of God once and it absolutely failed to make an impression on me... Nonetheless, I hope it becomes a huge hit, if for the representation it's going to bring to other comics of it's kind alone.

Tower of God: A New Era For Anime:

AKA how Gigguk called all of this shit out a year ago.

As for Tower of God it self, I can't say anything because I'm waiting for the anime to end to watch it all, but between it and the Tezuka Manga Awards allowing foreign participants, this decade is certainly shaping up to bring massive changes to the status quo of the industry.

Fingers crossed that it is positive changes.

Some webtoons do have physical publications, like ReLIFE (though that one's Japanese). And they usually suck because they just recut and rearrange the panels, which completely messes up the pacing.

…Speaking of which, Ultramarine Magmell, which got an anime last year, was originally a Chinese webtoon, so that might be the real starting point.

Also, Gigguk apparently can't pronounce "Noblesse".

Oooooh, boy... I heard about this specific trashfire.

Well, this specific part of this specific trashfire, at any rate.

Also, Gigguk's summary at the end should absolutely be added to the manga's YMMV page at some point, it's fucking golden [lol]

Imagine if Oreimo owned up to what it's about from day one, then proudly carried on with it's premise... then suddenly went completely bananas at the end after all the years of ...questionable... investment put into it's plot.

Jesus… did the author make a bet on how many uncanny plot twists he could cram in the last arc? evil grin

The Author is a woman who was harrassed with death threats on twitter. Primarily from overseas fans.

Her work has pludged a man descend into madness, she deserves no pity /s

I honestly wish people wouldn't harass authors just because their stories weren't up to their standards

That kinda reminds something similar that happened to the author of Tokyo Ghoul where overseas fans accused the author of being a homophobe.

The reason? Because the main character makes love with his female love interest. Many of these "fans" where angry that the mc didn't hooked up with another male character that yaoi fans love to pair with and accused the author of being a homophobe. Except many longtime readers of the manga pointed out the main character has never shown any romantic interest with that character and has always shown interested with his female love for sometime.
