Konosuba is my religion lol

I watch them too, at least the first few episodes, but the last one I watched I had to alt-F4 mid-episode.

"I don't want slaves, but that poor super-sexy girl slave will definitely get bullied if I don't take the responsibility of being her master. And she can't just be free because she has a slave crest tattooed on her ass cheek for everyone to see."

Biggest eyeroll ever.

Is that the one with eftal? Uhhh... From under-something to overpowered?

[–] blx@piefed.zip 3 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (2 children)

Yeah that's the one. The first episodes were okay-ish if I'm being generous, but I just couldn't continue after that scene.

If I'm not mistaken, I'm 3 seasons behind. Will be a while before I get to taste the five stars cringe.

[–] blx@piefed.zip 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I think this one is a brand new release, at least on Crunchyroll. Yours must be a different one. Hopefully you won't have to go through that much cringe!

[–] TacticalToothbrush@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Oh, I should have word it more clearly. I watch things season by season and currently mid way through fall 2025. 3 behind current season.

[–] blx@piefed.zip 2 points 2 days ago

Oh gotcha! It's a good strategy if you don't want to get a single weekly episode!

[–] forkDestroyer@infosec.pub 3 points 3 days ago

Yeah, the trope was enough to kinda knock me out of it. I might watch another episode but I'm not really as excited about it as I was before.

but she's not his slave because he hasn't dumped a load in her yet.

[–] sj_zero@lotide.fbxl.net 1 points 21 hours ago

I think you got that backwards. The reason that the jerk from that episode hadn't had his way with her yet was that doing so would cause the slave crest to be damaged.

[–] blx@piefed.zip 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

That's a pretty crude way to put it, but I can't argue with the sentiment.

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

I mean, that's literally what her previous owner was implying in the tea house.

[–] milkisklim@lemmy.world 0 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Rising of the shield master or whatever?

[–] blx@piefed.zip 3 points 3 days ago

Not that one, but IMO Shield Hero went from mid to terrible over the seasons. I haven't even bothered with the latest ones.

When it comes to anime, I am a raccoon at the dump.

Trash anime is best anime.

[–] Zizzy@lemmy.blahaj.zone 14 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I watch any anime with villainess in the title. I cant help myself

[–] chuckleslord@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

What's your favorite and why is it From Bureaucrat to Villianess: Dad's Been Reincarnated ?

[–] Doc_Crankenstein@slrpnk.net 13 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Ah, a regular of che Garbáge as well.

To know where something lands on the spectrum, you need to know both ends of it 🧠👈

I totally stopped having standards, i watch every isekai slop everytime, i treat them as fillers meanwhile i wait for the good ones

[–] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 3 points 3 days ago

Slow shows help put me to sleep right before bed.

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Imagine my surprise the first time I watched redo of healer.

now imagine my disgust the fifth time I watched it.

[–] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 2 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

I thank you sir for giving me some more content to consume while i wait for Bleach

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)
[–] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 1 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

Now i wonder if i shouldn't watch it

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

most the heinous acts are filtered out on hidive.

I had to download it to get the full unedited version.

the first episode is hilarious when the MC is "doing things" to her and all they focus on is the fireplace as she screams and moans. this is like 8 minutes of the episode.

don't feel bad though, she totally deserved it for the absolute horrible things she did to the MC before.

honestly I was disappointed he didn't just kill her.

[–] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 2 points 3 days ago

Thanks for the headsup

Now i know that i have to put headphones while watching the full unedited version

John Brown getting isekai'd into a slavery world

De Opresso Liber

[–] chuckleslord@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

Gods I fucking wished any of them actually did liberation. They just buy slaves and then feel bad about it (but it's okay, the slave really likes them as a master 🤮)

Give me "I Got Reincarnated into a World of Slavery. So I Killed All the Slavers"

The closest I've seen to that is "The World's Finest Assassin Gets Reincarnated in Another World as an Aristocrat", but uh, it's really far off from that concept. They do kill a bunch of billionaires buying slaves in the in medias res of the first episode, though. Which is nice

[–] QuandaleDingle@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

Aww hell naw, wtf??? XD

[–] whereitsat@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

japanese independent film generally has strong, independent woman protagonists. anime fans looking down on anyone is kinda boneheaded when it's japanese entertainment for 16-21 year old incels.

the fact that it's the only japanese culture besides samurais, sumo and manga that america even knows about tells you everything you need to know about america.

[–] AstroLightz@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I really don't like isekais that much, so it's rare when one gets my attention. Most recent one to do so would be DR. STONE (does that count?), otherwise Log Horizon.

Even very popular ones like Re:Zero don't interest me. To me, most of these shows have the same tropes, and same main character personalities, which makes them all feel the same.

[–] blx@piefed.zip 3 points 3 days ago

I watch a lot of them, and I agree with you. I find that some have decent characters, but most are terribly bland. Re-Zero has a decent setting but one of the worst main characters IMO. Someone mentioned slop and that's really how it feels.

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

The Villainess is Isekai'd to another world as a lunchbox of the hero only to be stuffed full every day by his unpopular brother
