I am sensing a pattern: these antagonists aren't truly evil.

"Releases" would have been a better term than "Drops" here (I know it came from animehunch). I misunderstood the title briefly.

I am still not 100% familiar with umamusume. This is Manhatten Cafe right?

It would be nice if her name is included in the title or description.

That doesn't look like Norn Ace.

I don't know why I don't hear more about this series, because it really was great, from start to finish.

At least two of our community members have Vivy in their top-10 anime. Personally, I rated it a 10 / 10. So there is, in fact, some following of Vivy over here.

I do agree that it is underwatched though. Unfortunately, the sheer volume of anime being pumped out - coupled with the limited time that everyone have - means that there's going to be more Vivy's. In just the recent seasons, some of the highest-rated anime are also the least watched.

The Apothecary Diaries season 2 finally finished airing last week, so here are my final thoughts: it is still so good. Season 1 has mysteries that kept you on the edge of your seats, whereas season 2 goes in a somewhat different direction, becoming more political, ancient-Chinese drama-like. It has been dropping many hints in the show, such that I am quite confident that there would be even would ancient China drama in the coming seasons.

My prediction is that

spoiler for The Apothecary Diaries if I guessed right

there would be more foreign interference or an outright war with another nation. They have not fully dealt with the mysterious ambassadors IIRC, and there's all that imported guns.

If The Apothecary Diaries decides to go down the path of a typical ancient China court drama, I would also expect to see a power struggle in court or within the royal family. Though, I find it hard to see the current emperor and Gyokuyou losing popular support or getting outwitted by a political opponent, and failing to retain power.

My moonshot prediction is that Jinshi and Maomao would end up being exiled for whatever reason, then founding a new nation together.

Coincidentally, The Apothecary Diaries ended with episodes focused on a character named Tamamo just like my other top anime of the season, Umamusume: Cinderella Gray.


I also watched the Jujutsu Kaisen 0 movie over the weekend. I find that it's just ok.

Okkotsu Yuuta's story is a typical superhero / battle shounen's story. It's nothing special. Personally, I prefer the plot-twists-filled main story of JJK.

I still enjoyed it enough.


I couldn't find the time / energy / money in me to play the Umamusume mobile game, so I thought I'd show my support for the franchise by buying some merch.

Tokai Teio plush and bluray set

Out of all the characters in the anime I have watched to date, I'd say Tokai Teio is the most inspiring to me, and has my utmost respect.

The only other one who can compete in this regard is Haru Urara. They should totally make an anime that features her, especially since she is so popular IRL. It need not be a full-season show; just an OVA would do.

My first impression is: this looks like another rehash of Romeo and Juliet + Beauty and the Beast

If you consider the perspective of the serfs who built the pyramids, the gameplay is actually kinda lore-accurate.

Bunny girls? What is this, a crossover episode?

yet further down, IBM alone has replaced "hundreds" of HR employees with AI. Which is it?

The article is implying that claims like these are bogus, no?
