If you found Hyouka boring it's just an indicator that you should stick to shounenshit.

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Hyokua

Hyouka is actually mediocre. Only worthwhile part about it is eye candy and Chitanda.

Ghost in the Shell 1995 - 5/10 (average)

Having just finished reading the original manga, I was disappointed in the film. Not disappointed in the way I was with the Stand Alone Complex anime I dropped three years ago, or the live action adaptation with Scarlet Johansson last year, but disappointed in how it missed the mark, disappointed in how dull it was. It's amazing to see how Ghost in the Shell appears in the popular conscious as some sort of deep, high art story about the nature of humanity and the soul, but in actuality the original manga is basically a black comedy about overzealous operatives who are having way too much fun with their jobs blowing hostiles up, being condescending towards civilians, and disrespecting authority, with a side plot about their silly robot slaves plotting to rise up and start the robot rights revolution. Yes folks, the Ghost in the Shell franchise is a victim of Warhammer 40k syndrome.

Watching the film was tedious. The character's souls had been sucked dry in the adaptation, having been transformed from delightfully entertaining characters to bland mouthpieces for exposition. The film spends more time expositing about the metaphysical ideas that were observed in the manga than actually demonstrating those ideas in action, and unlike the Fate series, it's not thought provoking or a form of story progression. I never realized until now how bland the protagonist, Matoko Kusanagi, was outside the manga: they're two completely different characters, and I need not explain which one has more depth. No, speaking in an unemotive and monotonous voice for ninety minutes doesn't make for a compelling character. There is also very little story here, with the bulk of the scenes having been cut. Ultimately feels like a very dry adaptation that missed the point. I'd give it a lower score if it wasn't for the art and the animation.

You should just watch the Dominion: Tank Police anime.

Was there anything horribly wrong with it?

I mean, it was enjoyable enough to watch, a bit forgettable sure, but not to the point of "who watches this?" I would say.

na more like can't recall anyone watching it.

never gave it a go myself.

[Skizzit]

I actually like Bungo Stray Dogs quite a bit. It isn't anything spectacular, but it was a solid if a bit forgettable watch.

Haunted Hot Springs episode 2: This is looking like Monster Musume Supernatural Version. Which I'm ok with. Opening theme is catchy too. That said, guy accidentally falls and lands on girls' boob is already played out. This show's gonna have to do something different to keep it entertaining, outside an adorable ghost and cute cat.

Cells at Work is the surprising one of the season so far for me - it’s a bit repetitive but it’s very clever and takes me in nonetheless. Characters are good across the board - never been so proud of my body!

I’m very far behind in anime due to work and Octopath - what is everyone watching this season? So far, I only have a few I’m watching:
Cells at Work
Overlord
Isekai.... Demonlord
Haven’t started AoT yet but I will when I get some time
HANEBADO
Will probably put Grand Blue on list - is this streaming on CR?
Did first episode of Yuuna-San - will probably join Isekai as my garbage watch

One thing I want to note on the Demon Lord show that I really don’t like is the art style of the ED. One of the girls is quite cute in the show but the ED just invites a prison sentence
