  • Yeah, I am confused as well, I feel like there was a lot that was left on the cutting room floor. Either that or the author really wanted to skip past all the prelims to get to a more manageable cast of characters. But, it begs the question, if all the important characters that we know make it to the Archimedes and then make it through this first round, then what was the point of them? It just makes the past couple episodes feel like a waste.

    Also, Anaak just figured out it was Bam by watching him. Could nobody else up to this point? I feel like Viole’s identity is the worst-kept secret ever at this point.











  • I am happy that each of the communities has kind of developed their own vibe, and a big part of that is that there are simply a lot of different people in the two communities. It’s always interesting to hear different perspectives on how they engage with the communities, so thanks for sharing!

    As for anime, rewatches are definitely on my to-do list. I was kind of planning to run one starting in January if there is interest. My schedule is pretty busy until then. Then again, maybe I could find time to do a one-off movie rewatch or something like that instead of committing to do a whole series (is there a christmas-themed anime movie?).

    Another idea that @NineSwords@ani.social and I have tossed around on discord in the past is doing some kind of coordinated re-read of a manga/light novel series. I guess that would be kind of like a rewatch. I just am not sure what a good candidate series for something like that would be. Also, the pace at which the different medium go through the story are very different. 1 LN volume is not equal to 1 manga volume is not equal to 1 anime season. So…open to ideas on that one.
