Happy Birthday! Ok, it might not be a birthday in the strictest sense, but it has officially been one year since I made the first general discussion thread in !anime@ani.social and was appointed as a moderator. Can you believe it? I don’t really have anything special to say about it other than to thank everybody here for being great members of the community. Thank you for this first year and I look forward to another year with all you goofballs. Also, special thanks to hitagi for creating the space for this community to exist (and handling a big chunk of reports before I even see them).

Just in case it wasn’t clear, you can absolutely use this thread the same way you would use any other general discussion thread. Let us know about things you have watched, ask about things you want to watch, show off some merch you just got, whatever. Go wild! (within the rules)

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 (also linked in the sidebar).

    Thanks for all the work y’all have put into this place. I’ve enjoyed participating here. I certainly post quite a bit more than I ever did on /r/anime. Hope to keep this place around.

    I’m not following a ton weekly this season. Dandadan is the clear winner and is amazing, a real contender for AOTY imo. Also watching Ranma 1/2 and it finally clicked in episode 3 for me. I now think it’s vastly outperforming the OG, mostly because of the improved pacing and minimal padding.

    I’m waiting for Re:Zero S3 to mostly wrap before jumping in. I’d rather watch it a little quicker than weekly.

      Dan Da Dan has been phenomenal so far. That and Orb have been the two shows this season that have really stood out as a clear step above everything else for me. As for waiting for something to finish before diving in, I absolutely do that sometimes. Most recently I did that with the Spice and Wolf remake and The Apothecary Diaries. If I had to pick one that I would be interested in bingeing this season after it wraps up, it would likely be Blue Box.
