Frieren has been really good, my favourite this season.
Apologies if this sounds dumb I’m not an anime expert. I saw this post and checked out Ragna crimson.
Now I overall like it(after 2 episodes) but there a couple things that left me a bit confused.
1 - what’s up with the head patting in the first episode and generally this kind of hyper infantilized Leo? I’ve never met a 12yo that acts like that, I understand this is fiction but what is the point exactly? Should I feel endeared? Because it did the opposite, creeped me the fuck out. Is there a name for this? (so maybe I can avoid it in the future)
2 - the whole discussion about getting more power, I feel it’s a recurrent theme in the few anime I watched and I already thought it was cringe when goku was doing it in Dbz… I would have expected this to be gone after more than 20 years… Do Japanese people feel… Powerless? Like it’s that a thing?
Thank you
Honestly surprised to see Dark Gathering make it up here. I’ve been enjoying it a lot in spite of the MC, past several episodes went to some dark places and I was all about it.
I have not watched this week ragna, but if it managed to get 1st, I’m excited to watch it tonight.
My confusion about how people find Dr Stone enjoyable continues.

Backed down until further review:
Sees 5thEw! That discusting anime was on here and had a second season? Thanos should had snapped us…EDIT: Looks like I made enemies… Oh well…
Hard disagree. It’s damn funny and self aware so I would recommend it to any isekai fans.
*disgusting
It’s damn funny and self aware
That’s almost all isekai today, though. Even the most hackneyed isekai authors are starting to realize the genre has been beaten to death so thoroughly that they must throws some new spin on their trite and the standard these days is “isekai but it’s self-aware!” Even that has been done countless times already.
I bet you can say that about 90% of the anime in this and general.
Plus, making it self-aware doesn’t add funny. It takes a bit more than that to do the trick.
