My Girlfriend is Shobitch 3
Chuukan Kanriroku Tonegawa 1

Spoiler

Probably the most fascinating thing about Shobitch is the fact that they attribute the phrase "excite" to all sorts of 18+ facets of life with actual names. Porn mags become "excite books", NC-17 films become "excite movies", and love hotels become "excite hotels". Kinda makes you wonder why they went that route...

And I don't care what the so-called critics say, Tonegawa is great so far. I am gonna love watching this every week.

Kuroko's Basketball 48

Spoiler

It's as I feared; Murasakibara is literally every anime watcher who seriously thinks The Pet Girl of Sakurasou was telling the non-talented that hard work would never, ever get you anywhere in your dream field. I can't believe I share my birthday with that freakishly huge blowhard...

Ashita Kirarin
Joker Game 12

Spoiler

And like that, another two MAL Watching Challenge entries down. While it could've done with better video quality and English subtitles, I felt Ashita Kirarin, an educational video from an Osaka-based human rights council based around autism (the video, not the council), was understandable in spite of my non-fluency in Japanese outside of key phrases and kanji for names. That, plus the idea of a collage made of recycled (or in this case, reused) soda cans is actually pretty cool. As for Joker Game, I.G knocked it outta the park again, though I understand if it being episodic wasn't to your taste. Not even I think it's a 10/10, but it was serviceable, and I'm glad I watched it. 7/10 for the former, 9/10 for the latter.

Ant-Man and the Wasp - 8/10

 

It was really good, but I'd be lying if I said I liked it more than Infinity War. That was always gonna be tough though just considering the sheer scale of the latter film. This one was, pun intended, much smaller in scope. Smaller, but also much sweeter. Wholesome is probably the word I'd best use to describe it. Scott and Cassie's relationship, Scott and Hope's, Hope with Hank...and later Janet. Hank and Janet, it was also very touching and nice. The action scenes were fun, I liked Stan Lee's cameo but boy is he starting to show all of that 95 year old body. Even his mustache looked older! Honestly the movie I'm having trouble deciding if I liked it better than it is the original Ant-Man. I really loved that movie, it was sorta the overlooked Marvel film I liked a ton. I probably liked this better, but I dunno. I'll hafta watch it again after it gets on HBO or Netflix or whatnot. That end credits scene was such a (somewhat predictable)dick move though. My 11 year old nephew especially hated it. After everything they went through it's snatched away again, just like that. I do think those particles or whatnot Scott was gathering(which reminded me of Fry gathering the chronotons in that one Futurama episode) are gonna prove vital in next year's Avenger's 4, where he'll play a role. I'm not sure how he'll get back from the Quantum Realm, but I've heard the upcoming Captain Marvel movie might be looking into that location too, so that may tie into it.

Armored Trooper Votoms 1-2

Spoiler

Dang, for '80s TV anime this is actually pretty intense. Not that it's a bad thing or anything, I like intense. Human-on-human violence, a decreased reliance on robots compared to what one might think, flatline-inducing torture, and a gratuitous naked woman? This shit really draws you in, no wonder /a/'s always recommending it in their pre-2000's threads.
