Obscura Yoi Anime Challenge 2021

1-I totally disagree, , is less work with a seasonal... if the topic of discuss is the amount of work, is less work seasonal. and thats what I try to explain, but well, if you dont want to believe me and do it anual because annual seems more cool, even if it hides more work, you can just ignore my explaining

I would put it this way, If I would have to pick is less stressfull to control 90 days of raw data 4 times in 4 excel files, than 365 days of raw data in one single excel file . Is a matter of the amount of data you need to process.


I created an excel so I talk as selfexperience, also
Seasonal challanges can also give a host some weeks of rest between contest and contest. while an year contest once its starts is a non-stop work.
The problem is not creating another spreadsheet, wich is just create an excel file, the amount of data to control is the key problem.

less raw data means less tags, less anime, less chance of errors, less warn users to change tags, less burocracy.
is like exams, what is harder? to have seasonal 4 exams, or 1 final exam with all the content to be evaluated, thats the point, the amount of content.

2- you are right, I am so selfish, if you see some of my previous posts, you can see I was always selfish not considering other users.

1- Me and howtoprocrastinate are both moderators for the bingo challenge, and jordan is a moderator for this challenge, the bingo challenge and the eleven deadly sins challenge. We all have experience moderating challenges, and we have all told you it'd be more work to do it seasonally.

2- no one called you selfish?

We're not saying that you're being selfish. It would be easier for Jordan if the challenge was annual and not seasonal. Jordan keep it that way for a reason. Seasonals challenges only give rest to the team members if there are multiple members. There are more work going on in the background with the team having to start preparing everything for next season.
 
Do not respond this message, and nobody quote me.

I was surprised at how little I enjoyed this season after enjoying the other 2. Maybe because it was a tense show while the other 2 seasons were more comedy-related. I mean I finished it because I had to, not because I wanted to.

Well, this is several ways of fucked up. I used it for my 11 deadly sins and holy crap does it fit in there well. Not sure why this was ever made. Please don't waste your time watching it.

This was a cute little festival episode that starts pretty much right after the last episode of the original show. It only came out on July 4 so I am glad I got to watch it so quickly.

review: This anime was very fun to watch. It isn’t a bl, but there are a lot of amazing moments between the two main characters that make it easy to ship them together. They practically get married in episode 10. Richard is a very beautiful man. There’s also a character who is most likely aromantic and maybe asexual, so that’s also great.

review: This anime was kinda confusing, but that’s probably because I couldn’t find english subtitles for most of the episodes I watched so I watched it in Japanese and I don’t understand Japanese. It was very boring, but it had some nice action scenes. It is very short, so it is debatable if it’s worth it to at least try it out.

I could only find the screenshot of me finishing it and I don’t want to go back through my feed

I am often not a fan of sci-fi and robots but those animals were hella cute and human smart. We get to see the story of a teenager fighting against the world when she is left alone at 16. Lots of flying shit and fox masks.

It was kinda hard to watch Shindo run since he had a fever and Yuki....his feet were !!!
It was hard to watch it but.....
I found myself smiling and crying as Haiji-san endured the pain and ran to the finish.
For his team mates. and for Kakeru. I kept murmuring for Haiji to run into Kakeru's arms already and he did.
Though he can no longer run after this race. It was sad that everyone kept telling this is the last during the race.
I coulndt get Haiji san & Kakeru out of my mind for a few days.

Most ppl would thing its easy but damn, the bows heavy, the target is far, and u need precision for it.
The uniform fr the sport also makes the shooter look so cool so its understandable why ppl would want to start shooting.
Minato looks really cool wen he's focused and his draw....damn its a beauty.
I was kinda hoping for smthing else too :p

Dates watched: 30th of June - 9th of July
This might seem like just Pretty Boys Doing Things Stylishly at first glance, but the mysteries featured are also pretty compelling and some more serious or original than one would expect. The coloring and visuals in general are also pretty good, and I liked the OP a lot too. However, there were parts where I felt as if something was missing, especially in regards to the characterization of the MC; I wonder if that is fleshed out better in the original LN series.

I used this as an introduction to Detective Conan for my friend. Turns out I got him hooked with this one. I have to say I have a 50/50 rate of guessing right who the villain is. I hope I can get that rate up. Though that was a pretty awesome-looking amusement park. Don't have shit like that near me.

This one made me cry a bit for a few episodes. While I have never been close to the animals that I have on my farm the thought of someone I know having to close down and lose all the animals that they have raised from babies is hard to think about. This show (both seasons) was an amazing watch that I would recommend to anyone.

92) Tezuka Osamu no Buddha: Akai Sabaku yo! Utsukushiku - 493 - India
https://www.anime-planet.com/anime/tezuka-osamu-no-buddha-akai-sabaku-yo-utsukushiku
GeVvJv4.jpg

Welp, my bad luck is back. This looked like it would be interesting and sounded like it too. It was a pretty movie but about half an hour in I started checking what time I was at and didn't stop until the end. The story jumps to several characters who literally meet each other once for a few seconds. And pretty much everyone dies.

Started on 7/7, and finished on 7/10.
I watched this thinking it would be cute, (which it was up until a certain point) but after several episodes, I either got uncomfortable or bored with certain episodes. If there's another season, I hope they explain how she's supposedly the mother to those slimes. At least this was my 500th anime ever watched.

Though I don't keep up with irl Basketball, I've had a low-key interest in it. I finished the 1st season of Kuroko's Basketball earlier, so I decided to watch this too. It's pretty much a side-story of when Kuroko and Kise were in Middle School.

I have a habit of choosing the worst group watches for my EDS and this is another of those foul choices. I should have paid more attention when I was looking for a groupwatch with certain criteria. This is space, late 90s and a sudden wife apperance. All the characters were plain or just plain annoying.

I dont have too much to say about this one as I found it boring. 2 guys get in a fight and then try to save the world and a girl. All in less than half an hour. Too much going on with not enough story to have a good hold on the watcher.

Originally, I meant to watch this last season for the Spring watching challenge, but because I got so busy with other anime's and stuff, it just didn't happen. I really enjoyed this, and even got my mom to watch it with me. (She was a little hesitant at first, but grew to like it the more she watched.) Yano is best porcupine, and I'll fight anyone who says otherwise. (Ok, jk, but still, despite the stuff that happened in the anime, I still like him. His rapping amuses me. :P )

A pretty neat special, where the gang goes to a town that celebrates a holiday(?) similar to "The Day of the Dead." I honestly don't understand the hate of Isekai Cheat Magician, but then again, it's been a long time since I watched the original series, so my memory is a little fuzzy when it comes to certain aspects of the show. One thing for certain though, I definitely did like it better than Rising of the Shield Hero. (Put down the pitchforks! *Hides* o_o )

@JordanJas Just noticed that in the page of the Pretty Boy Detective Club anime that I submitted some time ago, the Reverse Harem tag, which I swear was there when I submitted my entry, has been removed. Do I have to retroactively amend the tag used (in which case I would change it to "Detectives" instead) or does this tag still count because it was there when I submitted the entry?
