    I'll fight you over Dragonball and Dragonball Z any day, but Super is concentrated garbage. They are throwing so much bullsh*t at the screen and I don't care about any of it. I just can't understand how they botched the story, characters, and fight choreography so freaking badly. Super is SOOOO bad, yet it is more popular than ever. GT is better than Super.. I said it. I'm not taking it back.

    I don't think anyone here has defended Super btw.

    I don't disagree with you like at all. A poster asked me what anime I had as #1 previously and I said DBZ. There is no way Akira is writing this. Whoever is writing this has never seen DBZ...because the inconsistencies are glaring with the power scale/personalities/previous character development. GT is 100x better solely because it is at least watchable. Toei clearly doesn't care, because with the low qualith animation, terrible recycled characters....I can't think of a worse plot for this last episode.

    Any random writing I could have done would have been better...there is no way to make it any worse. DBZ isn't at the top for me anymore because I can't unsee this stuff .

    Sad (or amazing) thing is Toriyama is on record admitting there was a never a plan when he was writing DB or DBZ; it was all off the cuff. If that's true (I believe it is) then that is a legit skill.

    The dude writing it now can't be the same guy. whoever is writing it now is legit drunk.

    You know the anime is bad when they go back and explain or write out the crap on screen in the manga.

    smh.. I'll be back next week too

    My Hero Academia is one of those rare shows that appears to be getting better as it goes. I'm still watching Knights and Magic but I wouldn't call it a must see show, it's just sort of fun in this bland season.

    Those two anime are the only ones I'm following for the last few months (Boku No Hero and Knights&Magic).

    Nothing would make me happier than a second season of any of the following:

    OPM
    Overlord
    No Game No Life
    DanMachi (not the recent one with a new protagonist)
    Tanya The Evil

    Agreed that is really good list of shows that could use another season.

    My Hera Academia has been spectacular. Midoriya has actually gotten pretty badass & concerning the power development of most protagonists, he's gotten powerful pretty fast (not annoying anymore either).

    They've also gotten into it with a ton of powerful villains already & the anime is only a season & a half in.

    Really don't understand the criticism for it, maybe at the beginning but certainly not right now.

    PS the Shoto/Midoriya fight was iconic.

    Did you change your mind about My Hero? I know you were feeling it initially.

    Anyone watch Full Metal Panic! back in the day. I was a pretty big fan and had all three seasons they came out with(Original, Fumoffu, and Second Raid). They are supposed to drop a new season this fall...heard it might possibly get delayed too...hopefully it will retain the same English voice actors when it is localized.

    I've been watching magi and seven deadly sins. Not bad for mindless action if you missed those series.
