Demon Slayer is good once you get over the really annoying characters but Ufotable is known for having basically unlimited budgets and it shows in the animation, looks incredible.

I feel the adults in every anime I've watched are always way more interesting and better characters than the young protagonists. The kids as protagonists is the most annoying part of some of these shows. Maybe it's why I liked Cowboy Bebop so much. Plus I'm a big fan of the gun-fu/martial arts action.

I watched Demon Slayer to try and get with my coworker, the show was way more interesting than her. Actually really good minus the cringey anime shit.

It was a helluva season. Almost pulled one last rabbit out of the hat. Couldn't have asked for a greater group of guys to have in a locker room. Props to Anomalocaris Fan Club. They are a talented team and will do well in the playoffs.

I'm not sure what the future of NW holds. If this really is the end of my career, I'd like to thank a few people. First of all my lord and savior Karth. Without him none of this would be possible. I'd like to thank Zen, Garma, Curtis, Chantakey, Wastee, RussianFury, Nickcole, Glenn, and DantheChef for leading great communities that I was able to be a part of throughout my time here.

I'm just glad this is all coming out now about Stryker. He's gotten away with it for too long. He seems like a great guy on the outside but really he's just a monster. It's disgusting to see people try and defend his actions.

If I had more than 50fps we definitely don't lose 16-1. A selfish player would care about stats and maybe not show up tonight (like Stryker), but I came in and gave it my all at the expense of my flashy stats. Tough loss. Great job from Among Us they're a great organization. Watch out for them in the playoffs. Lot of veteran experience.

We're 3 episodes in. Calm down.

I love star wars. More star wars content is always good.

If you wanna get into it further, star wars has never been good. Just sit back and enjoy what it is. Cowboy's and samurai's in space.

Trust me I’m still extremely happy that there’s three episodes left. But why just accept a disappointing  product from something you’re so passionate about? It has not been a good show so far and it should be talked about. We are at 3/6 episodes so you can look at it as a glass half full or glass half empty way. I’ll be more optimistic because there’s still so much potential and a lot of story left to tell in another three episodes.

I personally think episode 3 is a joke. It was not strong whatsoever. The writing was so bad.

Spoiler

First, why is Obi Wan so impatient at the meetup point? They get there and don’t even wait 5 minutes to see if their help arrives.
Then on the speeder with the stormtroopers Obi Wan fucking calls Leia her real name? He was the one who came up with the fake story! The acting here was also kind of cringe and the pacing terrible.
They pull up to the checkpoint and then Obi Wan turns into John Wick and kills like 6 stormtroopers. Then a transport with only three stormtroopers pulls up right in front of him, drops the ramp, and Obi Wan doesn’t shoot them like he just did against six stormtroopers? He just surrenders and gets bailed out by the officer being a spy.
The next part is kind of cool with the little Jedi Underground Railroad, but this leads to the biggest writing WTF of the entire episode.

So Vader arrives (which was awesome to see him massacre people on sight) and Leia and spy lady escape into the tunnel. Reva finds their secret tunnel. The spy lady goes back towards the entrance, where a Sith Inquisitor should also be waiting and/or walking her direction. Then boom, spy lady saves Obi Wan. How did she find him? How did she not run into Reva or any imperials? How did the stormtroopers not see her after firing two blaster shots? Why did Darth Vader stop pursuing Obi Wan after a mild inconvenience? She literally just reignited the fire Vader had already just created and put out. Obi Wan was also carried off by a droid which Vader could have just used the force on. And then after all this, Reva teleports to the exit of the secret tunnel to capture Leia. It’s just such laaaaazy writing man.

Also the Vader and Obi Wan rematch really fell flat for me. There was no emotion. No epic music. No feeling of threat. It just didn’t do anything for me. I understand Obi Wan is rusty and hasn’t used the force or his lightsaber in a decade. That is what they were trying to show in that one sided fight. It just was done so poorly in my opinion. Felt like an average fan made scene. Even as a Star Wars fanboy I couldn’t get into a fucking Vader vs Obi Wan rematch… The dragging Obi Wan through fire part was cool at least.

Y’all are lucky I have covid. I’d have hopped on TS and given you a piece of my mind, but as a guideline respecting individual I must maintain my social distance.

Obi-Wan Kenobi is an absolute dumpster fire of a show. Horrible writing, awful directing, mediocre acting. I actually can't believe this is what they produced.
