Yes. Introducing us to the show by describing it and letting the viewer decide if it interests them, instead of just telling the viewer what to think. Good stuff.
Given how a few "One's to Watch" ended up also on "Hottest Trash" in the past i think he learned it's healthier to just set up the premise and let the viewer decide. Most of the these anime only have 3-4 episodes at most when these videos are done. There's no guarantee wether the rest will continue the quality.
@Cure-Skywalker yeah I mean if it's a "one to watch," it's at least *interesting* which I've learned in my time gaining expertise in things is a more valuable metric than "good."
After the pandemic, my old work recalled all the Herman Miller chairs they had previously loaned out to everyone working from home, but not so they could refurnish the office. Instead it was to furnish a space they were renting out to another company. That's the moment I was radicalized.
Still hurts that we're not in the timeline where Uzumaki could've been in this vid Edit: Okay, after the last episode, this is a What The HFIL Happened in the making
My mom's comments as we watched this, in order of anime (also Geoff my mom says she'll be praying for you, bc 1. covid sucks and 2. she worries about you overworking yourself): "I read the manga for this! I feel so cool for my age, now!" Followed by her pausing the video to gaze at Ken Takakura for a bit. Apparently the dreamboat qualities work on my mom, too. She punched the air and went, "Yeah!" when Rita Repulsa's role as a VA was announced. "I ship it. But I'll be honest, I don't love anyone enough to play badminton for them." "Uh, what about Dad?" "He loves me too much to ask me to play badminton." "An anime for people with dark humor and people who fish. So... your dad and I. It's for us." "'Three boys with two brain cells between them' is just any group of friends in high school. Until university age, a lot of boys are golden retrievers." Later, completely seriously: "This is still awkward than my high school dates. Ever gone on a date and realized you broke a guy's brother's arm as a kid and then had that make him more into you? It was... a lot." "Your dad used to bring me pirated VHS tapes of Ranma! He got them in Hong Kong from a man who sold anime, luxury rugs and hats for dolls. Ah, nostalgia..." And then she groaned because she's a psychologist with a Ph.d and Geoff misused the word psychopath, which is to psychologists as 'Cowboy Bebop at his computer' is to weebs. "I mean, as long as no underage kids are involved, this church is still not doing anything as dark as what the real Catholic Church did." Later, "Ew, Geoff has to deal with anti-vaxxers watching him? Poor thing..." "If you don't get that take on chairs, you're not truly an adult." "The man in a dress is my new boy-wife." "Mom, I told you before, they're called husbandos." "Not if they're wearing a dress." "Why doesn't Veltal just become a male model? He's gotta be qualified for that." Later: "Oh! Live-streaming is like that but with worse outfits. I get it." "We should watch this." Later: /sad, disappointed sigh at the use of the word 'psychopathy'/ "Oh, Geoffie." "Baby Goku! Baby Vegeta! They're adorable! My sons!" "Gundam is so complicated it's sort of like telenovelas for men, honestly." Bargain Bin: /unstoppable giggling when Geoff called himself old, because my mom is 65/ "I want a kami to show up and declare a ship preference." "This is adorable. I'm adopting them both." "Fangirl energy as plot point feels so obvious in retrospect. I'm here for this." "I want to live inside this art style." "If your name is Dolan, you either have to become the main character or a villain in order to get respect. Those are the rules." "This is roughly what it felt like to work in pediatric psychology my first year. People assumed I knew what I was doing and more I said I didn't, the more they kept going, 'Yeah! Knowing what you don't know shows you know things!' I don't miss that job." "Politics and romance would appeal to me, were this not an election year." "I was going to say 'this isn't that toxic' but then I realized I worked in pediatric forensic psychology for a decade. I think Geoff and I have different definitions of the word." "I'm adopting this guy and his mushroom dog. They need a mom." "Oh! I'd always thought about haunting you, but this is an option, too." "...Mom, that's terrifying." "Eh. You'd get used to it."
Yo good news on Girls Band Cry - in Canada a lot of libraries picked it up through the Hoopla streaming service, meaning people can stream it for free with a Library card (though they limit how many episodes you can watch per month). I think there’s someone there who watches your channel, because they also seem to be the only place you can stream the OG Digimon in Canada.
I normally dont comment, but my wife and I just watched the first episode of Dandadan and we were blown away. It was fun, exciting, the animation was stellar! Thank you for the awesome suggestion!
@@mothersbasementJust started reading it after watching the four available episodes on your recommendation. I was reading chapter 17 and ugly crying while thinking “yep, this one is really special.”
Gkids handling distribution for dandadan is honestly really great in my opinion, it's made it so much more accessible and probably a lot larger than it would have been if it was relegated to just CR or just Netflix, and we likely won't have to wait 5,000 years for a home release or have to get a small loan to pay for it. It makes me want more big SJ properties to be handled by them, even better if they can go beyond that with other series as well. Best case scenario is that it'll hopefully make aniplex change distribution in NA but that's pretty pie in the sky. Maybe they'll even start picking up these shows that keep falling through the cracks.
As it turns out, it was just announced that TOHO would be acquiring GKIDS. Combined with the fact that their inhouse animation studio made Apothecary Diaries with OLM and they purchased Science Saru earlier this year, it seems like they're planning to get more involved in anime from start to finish, instead of just production like they had been before.
Ohhh wow, but also, this kind of makes me worried that anime industry consolidations are still happening on a bigger scale this decade than in the past few decades.
The enthusiasm you brilliantly blast while getting worked up in these videos ALWAYS makes the day better. Just joy and amusement, sir. You are doing good; thank you.
So happy that Natsume's book of friends is back! This series is so underrated and deserves more attention. Love Live is also amazing, glad to see Liella back
I was thinking about that the other day. This is a fairly obscure show by my understanding, how did it get to 7 seasons and counting? Not that I'm complaining, but it is odd. Maybe it's really popular in Japan?
Natsume has been my favorite anime for years. It hurts since I never have anyone I can talk to about it, no one knows it. It's crazy considering how many seasons it's gotten and it even has a cute mascot character that should at least be recognizable on its own.
@@ReptarKingOfMeat feel free to talk to me about it. The first couple episodes of this season have already got me in my feels. The latest chapter of Wind Breaker didn't do me any favors either.
Gonna sound crazy for this, but Orb on the movements of the earth brought me a little out a deep depression and homesickness ive been having for the last few months. Im not christian, but the philosophical discussions, the grief, the various ways the characters saw the world, something about the story brought brought such raw feelings and resonated so deeply with me. i spent the night crying after i finished it and finally felt motivated enough to get my shit together. It wasnt a lot and im still in the dumps, but i feel motivated to be better. Its such a good story. Its not for everyone, but give a chance :)
The new Ranma series is SO much fun, I can't believe I'm waiting so excitedly for the next episode every week! The original was the first anime I ever fell in love with.
@@Technodreamer Kasumi is best girl and Ranma belongs with Akane, the Weakness Moxibustion arc shows that Ukyou doesn't get Ranma and his dedication being a great Martial Artist. Also, Akane is the one always helping Ranma and risking her injury or death to do so.
I appreciate that this is a 2024 video and I'm getting a bunch of OG anime recommendations as well as the present day titles they influenced. Media fluency is such a wonderful thing, and you wield it well. 10/10
I kinda want one of those "everyone thinks the main character is a genius but actually he's a cowardly idiot" stories where it turns out in the epilogue to the first episode that, actually, everyone knows he's an idiot, but they also know that his cowardly schemes turn out to be sort of brilliant in spite of his best efforts, and they're concerned that if they admit they know he's faking it, he'll stop faking it, so they have to pretend they don't realize. And then half way through the first season he realizes that they realize, but he doesn't want to let them down, so he continues to fake like he hasn't realized they're faking not knowing that he's faking it, and so on.
I gotta say that Dandadan might have the best dub this year. AJ Beckles and Abby Trott just ooze so much fucking chemistry and really sell the "2 idiot kids" dynamic that Momo and Okarun have and develop throughout the series. If you can, you should watch Dandadan in dub it's absolutely incredible.
I'm really loving the dub but I think the chemistry between our two leads is actually the one thing that the sub is doing strictly better so far. Props to the dub translation, it's killer!
It’s been a while since I’ve heard a dub that feels just as natural as the sub. My issue with many dubs is they feel flat in comparison to the performances of subs. In general I feel like dubs have gone down in quality but would love if they would go back to being as good as baccanno HxH and full metal alchemist
Convinced to add a couple more to my list this season! Most notably Mecha Ude, holy shit that looks cool, and what a great production story. Thank you for your service o7
Watched ep 1 of Mecha Ude on a whim when it popped up in my CR recommendations, and immediately knew I'd be coming back for each week's release. So surprising that hardly anybody in anitube seems to be talking about it!
A historical note that I think is important: Heliocentrism was not considered heretical. The person who mathematically proved the heliocentric model: Nicolaus Copernicus, was a Catholic canon, and it was the Pope who told him to publish his findings. What happened with Galileo was not religion vs science, but a tale of egos.
Slight correction: while it is arguably more because of a tale of egos that Galileo suffered as he did, that tale occured because religion vs science was gaining ground (and to be clear, anti-intellectualism began with the Protestant Reformation and with the Protestants), and it was a case of "Oh yeah!? Well, _MY_ religion is more against science than _YOURS!"_ that led to the Catholic Church doing Galileo dirty - and it is was so Catholicism would stop losing members to Protestantism.
@@DavidRichardson153 Ahh yes, tale as old as time. The lives of intelligent humans lost in the pissing match between "my magical overlord(s) is better than your magical overlord(s)"
Yeah, I'm pretty sketchy on Orb because it looks like it's another perpetrator of the myth that the Church suppressed scientific developments in the middle ages. That's a story the French Enlightenment made up while they were executing priests amd nuns for not pledging loyalty to their Revolutionary government.
I always love when I can recognize an ost in the background of videos and love it even more when I know the context it's used in and think"yeah they paired this perfectly with what they are talking about" Good stuff
I found out about Dandadan from a video you posted a short while back and let me just say THANK YOU!!! I've read 132 chapters in 3 days I cannot put it down this story is amazing and the characters are spectacular
maybe I just skip the outro a lot and never noticed but I appreciate the hell out of the graphic at the end with the shows and an icon of where to watch it
You mean a weirdo and answering your questions. The fact he cared about that enough to even mention it is not normal, and perhaps a sign of an unhealthy addiction to something.
@bugjams The way I see it is, if it was removed, it might have been done to appease the mythical "MoDeRn AuDiEnCe." And we all know how that turns out. I personally don't think Ranma needed a remake. I recently saw it on another streaming site and it was funny and reminded me of my childhood.
@@esteban3155 You're right on that times have gotten rough and dangerous now with people mostly can't always trust have to be very wary of dealing details on getting anime also in other news also hear and seen about the UN United Nations is also getting in on trying to censor anime may want to look into that. Lots of wackos out there and attacks on anime along with really demanding people to get it can't always get it on their own which you may have to beware of considering the times now.
Fall anime season is very cool in my opinion. There is everything for everyone. In my opinion, it is special and rich. For example, for me, the most interesting were: Dragon Ball: Daima, Bleach Dandadan and the remakes of Ranma 1/2 along with the continuation of the remake of Rurouni Kenshin (I know about the author, i'm not fan of hism as a person, please don't write to me about it). I can't say anything about the Blue Box, but it is quite good and even looks more interesting than Blue Lock, but we'll see what happens at the end of the season. Probably my favorites of the season will be Daima, Bleach and Dandadan. I really liked them, so they will definitely be in my top 3 best anime (unless something appears that can displace them). I am very happy with this season, this is approximately what I expected from it! It was great start!
"Featuring an immense cast of lovable, memorable, certifyable psychopaths" - most accurate description of the cast of my most beloved manga I ever heard ^^
My only qualm is that I have every single Mother's Basement RUclips video and has nothing else to watch now. So thanks Jeff for making me addicted to your content
Luckily, this video has a few suggestions about what you could watch next. I mean, so do most of Geoff's videos. Even some of the pre-Chez-Garbage "why this bad anime is bad" videos mention good anime that do similar things! But this video is suggestions.
That "let This Grieving Soul Retire" is probably the one I am the most interested in actually. I love the fake-ultimate hero types like Caiphas Cain (Warhammer 40k) or Princess Mia (Tearmoon Empire) where their reputation gets so huge that everything they do is hilariously misinterpreted as some grand plan or incredible wisdom when they are generally just trying to survive the chaos.
The Eminence in Shadow S2 also pulled it off on a level where I was barely able to breathe. The show went out of its way to show he's a moron with a truly childish understanding of economics.
You're gonna be disappointed then imo, because let this grieving soul retire is kinda dogshit honestly. Might just be me, but the episodes i watched have all been pretty subpar.
@@shuvelstone1331 It's yet another LN adaptation that's extremely mediocre. While I can't point to anything in particular that's _wrong_, there's nothing _right_ about it. All of the charm and humor from the written source are lost and basically none of the jokes land. The manga adaptation is pretty good, though. I hope some people at least give that a try (if they don't read LNs) before they give up on this series.
I seriously am amazed with your recommendations. I suspect I wouldn't care for some of these shows AT ALL, but you do such a marvelous job of celebrating what's unique and special about them that I want to watch them ALL now.
Love this video. Haven’t had much time to look into series from the new anime season because of work. But this puts it all in one place. Thanks a bunch.
Aside from 2 shows, I've had them all on my list already and mostly started watching them already! Can confirm, it's a stacked season! Dandadan, Ranma 1/2 and Orb gotta be my favorites so far!
Poland Saga (Orb) is probably the anime I'm most excited to watch this season. It took a huge turn in episode 3 and I can't waiut to see what will happen next!
@@kubamarzec7234 I haven't watched it yet, but it's most likely not in Poland. It's Prussia. Edit: I looked into it, it wasn't yet. Kingdom of Poland at the time.
@@NoidoDev 1st this is just a joke so I don’t know where this sudden accusation is coming from, but since you want to get into details it literally says in the synopsis that it’s set in Poland so I don’t know what to tell you 🤷
@@NoidoDev What are you talking about? Poland has existed on maps since 966. The anime is set in the 15th century. The characters have Polish names and the story is inspired by Nicolaus Copernicus - the author of the heliocentric solar system, who was Polish. This anime screams Poland at every turn.
to be clear - the methods of the catholic church during the time period of Orb against "heretics" is at least somewhat correct (those methods being forced recantation, torture and execution -often by burning), it's just that the suppressive methodology seen was mostly used against early protestants, not heliocentrists.
I was hoping to see Magilumiere pop up in the video and it did not dissapoint! As a longtime manga fan seeing it get the recognition it so much deserves has made me teary eyed, thanks ;v;. Enjoy the journey Jeff, it only gets better!!
I just wish it was on almost any other platform. It was one looked really interesting when reading through the list of anime this season, but I don't have and don't want Amazon.
I love watching the ones to watch videos....at the end of the season. I can't do simulcast. But I appreciate seeing how you most often than not are able to pick great anime from one or two episodes alone. And also seeing your longer reviews later on and noticing if anything changed your opinion of the anime eventually.
Re:zero Bleach TYBW part 3 Dandadan IN THE SAME SEASON! Last time I had this much fun watching anime was when Frieren, apothecary diaries and delicious dungeon was airing
A show that's good, but wasn't talked about in this video is; Puniru is a Kawaii Slime on Crunchyroll. This show has a very nostalgic feeling to it, it's not deep but it's just cute hearted fun about a boy accidentally being a slime to life and now growing up in middle school he's starting to regret it. It has the same idea as Ted expect no drugs. But Puniru is a cute show with enough gags to make you smile.
Jeff, let me just thank you, thank you for putting me on the absolute peak that is Blue Box. After a grueling second round of midterms, I really needed this, and my girlfriend is just as obsessed with it as I am so now I look forward to hanging out with her even more, thanks dude! :)
Ya done good Geoff! Thank you for so thoroughly watching that much anime, whilst fighting off the plague. You are a gentleman and a scholar. Please accept this token of appreciation along with the like and share. 🏆
love how Okarun's real name is just left out of the video entirely but Momo liking Ken Takakura was so everyone curious about the manga/anime will really have the full random bullshit go experience everyone had
After that banger episode 2 of Re:Zero Season 3 I expected half of this video's runtime to be you screaming your love for that show from the heavens. Glad that I'm wrong though, this season looks fire. Thank you for your service, Geoff!
365 Days to the Wedding has my full attention. I saw, I was curious at the name, I read the description, and I WAS IN 😂🔥 That's EXACTLY my kind of romcom!
Thanks again for listing the names of the shows and where to find them. I rotate through streaming services and it makes it easier to go back to see what I missed on a particular service in the past. It is especially helpful when I decide to binge the entire season of an older series.
Gonna get fat from all this good eating we have this season. Dan Da Dan grabbed my fiance and I from the first bonkers episode. And the Ranma 1/2 remake is as colorful and fun as we had hoped it would be. There's a lot to love in Fall 2024. Thanks for putting up the highlights for those of us who can't watch every single thing looking for all the winners.
"Early 2000s ecchi nonense in Tying the Knot with an Amagami Sister." Oh good, I weirdly enough was looking for one of those in between all the wholesome ones. And shrine maidens made it a bonus. It was basically my 'fun' pick for manga, though I'm going to continue with the manga for the time being. I do keep running into someone saying it gets more intriguing later on. Also adding Dandadan, somehow saying Rita was in it won me over.
Grew up watching Ranma and loving it. Sadly was not able to finish it when I was a kid. I am happy they are doing the new one and much more manageable to watch. Shampoo is definitely BEST GIRL!!!
Additional selling points for 365 Days Until The Wedding: 1) From the author of The World God Only Knows, so you know the characters and romance will be well written. 2) Adaptation of a COMPLETED manga series with a satisfying conclusion. 3) Romance between adults which is super refreshing for those of us who haven't stepped foot in a highschool for well over a decade. Heck - even when I WAS a teenager, I was already getting bored with the same old highschool setting romance tropes. 4) True introvert romance. The main characters aren't uwu shy about everything or overly pessimistic - they just enjoy their own space, have their hobbies, and hate attention. They are perfectly happy on their own, but don't mind sharing their space with a special someone. They have great chemistry with each other. It feels true to my own experiences of introvert romance. 5) Cute cat. And maps - do you like maps? Maps are neat.
I just tried the show, and I definitely agree about points 3 and 4; it's nice to see a romance between adults rather than a high school romance, and it's nice to see introverts be more accurately portrayed.
Holy crap !! I remember coming across mechanical arms years ago and thinking how cool it was. Between multiple moved and a global panorama I had forgotten about it. Which is why it such a welcomed surprise and also rooting for because I love when passion get rewarded.
I demand a tribute to the late Leiji Matsumoto at some time! I am the old man Otaku around these parts and demand this tribute! Now to watch the video.
OH THANKYOU SO MUCH FOR THE LIST!!! idk if im just a silly but i dont think you've done this much before- its so helpful to have them all nice together for my enjoyment
Orb on the movements of Earth is my anime of the season and it's the hidden gem of the season. I also already see it as a contender for AOTY. It's unbelievable how unwatched the show is and after watching it's 3rd episode I can guarantee it's the best from the season we've seen so far.
It's worth noting that Galileo didn't get brought before the Inquisition because of his exposition of the heliocentric model; he was accused of heresy for suggesting the Earth wasn't the centre of the universe as Christianity claimed. It's a similar mix-up as people who claim Columbus was laughed at for saying the Earth was round, something the Church never actually disagreed with and that people had known the Earth was round for centuries (he got laughed at because he said the Earth was smaller than previous estimates and that the distance between Spain and Japan was only 3000 miles).
Also, the heliocentric model was originally proposed and mathematically proven by Nicolaus Copernicus: a Catholic canon, and the Pope told Copernicus to publish his findings.
Really Galileo was an arrogant asshole who eventually pissed off the wrong people so when he crossed a line he was warned about, they dragged him before the Inquisition and threw the book at him because he didn't have the math yet to prove his claims. (Heliocentrism isn't really confirmed until around Newton's time half a century later.)
Anime is about Copernicus and Poland. The Catholic Church initially resisted the heliocentric model of the universe. On March 5, 1616, the Holy Office placed Copernicus’s De revolutionibus and other works supporting Earth’s motion, including Kepler’s, on the Index of Forbidden Books. This stance continued in 1633 when Galileo, after publishing Dialogue Concerning the Two Chief World Systems, was tried, forced to recant, and sentenced to house arrest. His Dialogue was also banned. Copernican works that treated heliocentrism as fact remained prohibited until 1822 and were removed from the Index in 1835. Catholic theologians argued that Copernicus’s theory lacked proof to resolve both scientific and theological doubts, and prominent thinkers of the time, such as Justus Lipsius and Francis Bacon, supported the Ptolemaic system.
I’m a big fan of the title Orb was given in Spanish. It’s ’Earth, blood and knowledge. On the movement of the earth.” Also Bring back Rafal my GOAT who the hell is Oczy 😢
I found my dad's old Shadowrun books in my adolescent years, and ever since then I've yearned for other settings that mix science fiction and fantasy like that. Not fantasy stories which include some out-of-place alien spaceships or Ancient Technology that's basically just magic, not sci-fi so soft that it's oozing midichlorians, but something that incorporates futuristic technology and magic into a setting and makes both feel like they belong. Demon Lord 2099 isn't enough to fill that hole almost twenty years in the making, but it helps.

"Shampoo is best girl"
Those are fighting words. Not because it's wrong, but because this is Ranma and all words are fighting words.
ukyo best girl
He is wrong though, because it's Ukkyo.
The waifu war has begun, and there will be no more peace.
Note: The absence of words is _also_ fighting words.
Ukyo is best girl by the sheer fact that Ranma actually admits that he loves her.
Gambling King is best girl.

"I mean, as long as no underage kids are involved, this church is still not doing anything as dark as what the real Catholic Church did." Later, "Ew, Geoff has to deal with anti-vaxxers watching him? Poor thing..."
"If you don't get that take on chairs, you're not truly an adult."
"The man in a dress is my new boy-wife." "Mom, I told you before, they're called husbandos." "Not if they're wearing a dress."
"Why doesn't Veltal just become a male model? He's gotta be qualified for that." Later: "Oh! Live-streaming is like that but with worse outfits. I get it."
"We should watch this." Later: /sad, disappointed sigh at the use of the word 'psychopathy'/ "Oh, Geoffie."
"Baby Goku! Baby Vegeta! They're adorable! My sons!"
"Gundam is so complicated it's sort of like telenovelas for men, honestly."
Bargain Bin:
/unstoppable giggling when Geoff called himself old, because my mom is 65/
"I want a kami to show up and declare a ship preference."
"This is adorable. I'm adopting them both."
"Fangirl energy as plot point feels so obvious in retrospect. I'm here for this."
"I want to live inside this art style."
"If your name is Dolan, you either have to become the main character or a villain in order to get respect. Those are the rules."
"This is roughly what it felt like to work in pediatric psychology my first year. People assumed I knew what I was doing and more I said I didn't, the more they kept going, 'Yeah! Knowing what you don't know shows you know things!' I don't miss that job."
"Politics and romance would appeal to me, were this not an election year."
"I was going to say 'this isn't that toxic' but then I realized I worked in pediatric forensic psychology for a decade. I think Geoff and I have different definitions of the word."
"I'm adopting this guy and his mushroom dog. They need a mom."
"Oh! I'd always thought about haunting you, but this is an option, too." "...Mom, that's terrifying." "Eh. You'd get used to it."
She sounds like a riot
Your mom is amazing and sounds delightful.
Dawg your mom is hilarious and such a sweeetheart. These comments are a highlight of posting these videos every season!
Your mom is an awesome lady 😎
This made my day lmao
Yo good news on Girls Band Cry - in Canada a lot of libraries picked it up through the Hoopla streaming service, meaning people can stream it for free with a Library card (though they limit how many episodes you can watch per month). I think there’s someone there who watches your channel, because they also seem to be the only place you can stream the OG Digimon in Canada.
Holy based libraries
you can watch anime with your library card???? how have a never heard of this??
I know some shit is bad in Canada but getting to be alone more and also having based libraries sounds damn appealing rn.
I normally dont comment, but my wife and I just watched the first episode of Dandadan and we were blown away. It was fun, exciting, the animation was stellar! Thank you for the awesome suggestion!
Glad you’re enjoying it! The manga is one of my all time faves
@@mothersbasementJust started reading it after watching the four available episodes on your recommendation. I was reading chapter 17 and ugly crying while thinking “yep, this one is really special.”
Dan Dan Dan blew me away so far and I’m also loving the whole package, amazing art, dub, and story is five stars ⭐️
Have you seen episode 7 yet?
Gkids handling distribution for dandadan is honestly really great in my opinion, it's made it so much more accessible and probably a lot larger than it would have been if it was relegated to just CR or just Netflix, and we likely won't have to wait 5,000 years for a home release or have to get a small loan to pay for it. It makes me want more big SJ properties to be handled by them, even better if they can go beyond that with other series as well. Best case scenario is that it'll hopefully make aniplex change distribution in NA but that's pretty pie in the sky.
Maybe they'll even start picking up these shows that keep falling through the cracks.
As it turns out, it was just announced that TOHO would be acquiring GKIDS. Combined with the fact that their inhouse animation studio made Apothecary Diaries with OLM and they purchased Science Saru earlier this year, it seems like they're planning to get more involved in anime from start to finish, instead of just production like they had been before.
Ohhh wow, but also, this kind of makes me worried that anime industry consolidations are still happening on a bigger scale this decade than in the past few decades.
The enthusiasm you brilliantly blast while getting worked up in these videos ALWAYS makes the day better. Just joy and amusement, sir. You are doing good; thank you.
So happy that Natsume's book of friends is back! This series is so underrated and deserves more attention. Love Live is also amazing, glad to see Liella back
I was thinking about that the other day. This is a fairly obscure show by my understanding, how did it get to 7 seasons and counting? Not that I'm complaining, but it is odd. Maybe it's really popular in Japan?
Natsume has been my favorite anime for years. It hurts since I never have anyone I can talk to about it, no one knows it. It's crazy considering how many seasons it's gotten and it even has a cute mascot character that should at least be recognizable on its own.
@@RatoInsano not that obscure at all. The manga sells like hot cakes and has for a long time
Yeah, I love Natsume. I thought it would never get a continuation since it’s been so long.
@@ReptarKingOfMeat feel free to talk to me about it. The first couple episodes of this season have already got me in my feels. The latest chapter of Wind Breaker didn't do me any favors either.
Gonna sound crazy for this, but Orb on the movements of the earth brought me a little out a deep depression and homesickness ive been having for the last few months. Im not christian, but the philosophical discussions, the grief, the various ways the characters saw the world, something about the story brought brought such raw feelings and resonated so deeply with me. i spent the night crying after i finished it and finally felt motivated enough to get my shit together. It wasnt a lot and im still in the dumps, but i feel motivated to be better. Its such a good story. Its not for everyone, but give a chance :)
Sorry for being cringe on main in a public comment section, I just appreciate this manga so much
The new Ranma series is SO much fun, I can't believe I'm waiting so excitedly for the next episode every week! The original was the first anime I ever fell in love with.
Also, UKYO BEST GIRL SHE'S JUST AS MUCH GENDER-SCREWY AS RANMA and that's why they FIT
it's hurting me that i have to wait a week to continue. i want to keep watching so bad
@@Technodreamer Here's hoping that the remake goes on long enough to get to Konatsu.
Same here, except for the censorship which just doesn't work well with certain gags like Soun brushing his teeth then seeing Ranma topless.
@@Technodreamer Kasumi is best girl and Ranma belongs with Akane, the Weakness Moxibustion arc shows that Ukyou doesn't get Ranma and his dedication being a great Martial Artist. Also, Akane is the one always helping Ranma and risking her injury or death to do so.
I appreciate that this is a 2024 video and I'm getting a bunch of OG anime recommendations as well as the present day titles they influenced. Media fluency is such a wonderful thing, and you wield it well. 10/10
love the polish inquisition joke in the chapter title
Orb is gonna be the most slept on this season, calling it now.
Takes a wild turn in Episode 3.
I kinda want one of those "everyone thinks the main character is a genius but actually he's a cowardly idiot" stories where it turns out in the epilogue to the first episode that, actually, everyone knows he's an idiot, but they also know that his cowardly schemes turn out to be sort of brilliant in spite of his best efforts, and they're concerned that if they admit they know he's faking it, he'll stop faking it, so they have to pretend they don't realize. And then half way through the first season he realizes that they realize, but he doesn't want to let them down, so he continues to fake like he hasn't realized they're faking not knowing that he's faking it, and so on.
And then, presumably, the villain’s head explodes from trying to figure all that out.
"Let this grieving soul retire" will hit those notes for you
I gotta say that Dandadan might have the best dub this year. AJ Beckles and Abby Trott just ooze so much fucking chemistry and really sell the "2 idiot kids" dynamic that Momo and Okarun have and develop throughout the series. If you can, you should watch Dandadan in dub it's absolutely incredible.
I'm really loving the dub but I think the chemistry between our two leads is actually the one thing that the sub is doing strictly better so far. Props to the dub translation, it's killer!
Black butlers public school arcs dubs up there, one of the og great dubs coming back
I was looking for a reason to rewatch the released episodes
It’s been a while since I’ve heard a dub that feels just as natural as the sub.
My issue with many dubs is they feel flat in comparison to the performances of subs. In general I feel like dubs have gone down in quality but would love if they would go back to being as good as baccanno HxH and full metal alchemist
@@Vairrion I feel like we've been getting more and more good dubs lately. Dungeon Meshi and JoJo Stone Ocean were both outstanding in my opinion.
Convinced to add a couple more to my list this season! Most notably Mecha Ude, holy shit that looks cool, and what a great production story. Thank you for your service o7
Watched ep 1 of Mecha Ude on a whim when it popped up in my CR recommendations, and immediately knew I'd be coming back for each week's release. So surprising that hardly anybody in anitube seems to be talking about it!
A historical note that I think is important: Heliocentrism was not considered heretical. The person who mathematically proved the heliocentric model: Nicolaus Copernicus, was a Catholic canon, and it was the Pope who told him to publish his findings. What happened with Galileo was not religion vs science, but a tale of egos.
Slight correction: while it is arguably more because of a tale of egos that Galileo suffered as he did, that tale occured because religion vs science was gaining ground (and to be clear, anti-intellectualism began with the Protestant Reformation and with the Protestants), and it was a case of "Oh yeah!? Well, _MY_ religion is more against science than _YOURS!"_ that led to the Catholic Church doing Galileo dirty - and it is was so Catholicism would stop losing members to Protestantism.
@@DavidRichardson153 Ahh yes, tale as old as time. The lives of intelligent humans lost in the pissing match between "my magical overlord(s) is better than your magical overlord(s)"
@@aeronphillips8876 Pretty much.
Yeah, I'm pretty sketchy on Orb because it looks like it's another perpetrator of the myth that the Church suppressed scientific developments in the middle ages.
That's a story the French Enlightenment made up while they were executing priests amd nuns for not pledging loyalty to their Revolutionary government.
That myth gets annoying with how often it gets trotted out. Especially since Copernicus lived a hundred years earlier.
I always love when I can recognize an ost in the background of videos and love it even more when I know the context it's used in and think"yeah they paired this perfectly with what they are talking about"
Good stuff
Geoff you had me at Rita, im watching Dandandan the moment I get off work.
Absolutely the same.
Dandadan is peak
I have never felt so positively about a shounen couple in so long ❤ the writing for those two is adorable
It's low-key actually awful. Unless you're 10 years old I guess, then the humor is for you.
I found out about Dandadan from a video you posted a short while back and let me just say THANK YOU!!! I've read 132 chapters in 3 days I cannot put it down this story is amazing and the characters are spectacular
Same here literally caught up in one day and I've been suffering weekly waiting for the next chapter lol
maybe I just skip the outro a lot and never noticed but I appreciate the hell out of the graphic at the end with the shows and an icon of where to watch it
Thank you for commenting on it because otherwise, I would've missed it. Sincerely appreciated! 👍
My question imediately when ranma 1/2 showed up was "did mappa remove boobs?" I appreciate you being a man of culture and answering my question
More likely could be still liked it but compared to the original well anyway it's what was OK! then not OK today.
You mean a weirdo and answering your questions. The fact he cared about that enough to even mention it is not normal, and perhaps a sign of an unhealthy addiction to something.
@@bugjams whatever you say killjoy
@bugjams
The way I see it is, if it was removed, it might have been done to appease the mythical "MoDeRn AuDiEnCe." And we all know how that turns out.
I personally don't think Ranma needed a remake. I recently saw it on another streaming site and it was funny and reminded me of my childhood.
@@esteban3155 You're right on that times have gotten rough and dangerous now with people mostly can't always trust have to be very wary of dealing details on getting anime also in other news also hear and seen about the UN United Nations is also getting in on trying to censor anime may want to look into that. Lots of wackos out there and attacks on anime along with really demanding people to get it can't always get it on their own which you may have to beware of considering the times now.
Man i have so much anime to catch up, i was watching your Srping 2024 ones to watch when you released this. Im like 2 seasons behind 😭
same
One of the problems of having a lot of good anime 😂
Same. Just skip what you don't find interesting. That's what I'm doing rn.
that means you haven't seen Wind Break yet, so I envy you getting to watch it for the first time.
@@kitishot I'll give it a shot
Fall anime season is very cool in my opinion. There is everything for everyone. In my opinion, it is special and rich. For example, for me, the most interesting were: Dragon Ball: Daima, Bleach Dandadan and the remakes of Ranma 1/2 along with the continuation of the remake of Rurouni Kenshin (I know about the author, i'm not fan of hism as a person, please don't write to me about it). I can't say anything about the Blue Box, but it is quite good and even looks more interesting than Blue Lock, but we'll see what happens at the end of the season. Probably my favorites of the season will be Daima, Bleach and Dandadan. I really liked them, so they will definitely be in my top 3 best anime (unless something appears that can displace them). I am very happy with this season, this is approximately what I expected from it! It was great start!
24:38 Glad to see Towa is still streaming 75 years in the future lol
TMT is eternal

"Featuring an immense cast of lovable, memorable, certifyable psychopaths" - most accurate description of the cast of my most beloved manga I ever heard ^^
My only qualm is that I have every single Mother's Basement RUclips video and has nothing else to watch now. So thanks Jeff for making me addicted to your content
Thanks for watching all of it! That’s a serious accomplishment
Luckily, this video has a few suggestions about what you could watch next.
I mean, so do most of Geoff's videos. Even some of the pre-Chez-Garbage "why this bad anime is bad" videos mention good anime that do similar things! But this video is suggestions.
im so happy youre talking about negative positive angler! im rly enjoying it so far and hope this gets more people to watch it! c:
That "let This Grieving Soul Retire" is probably the one I am the most interested in actually. I love the fake-ultimate hero types like Caiphas Cain (Warhammer 40k) or Princess Mia (Tearmoon Empire) where their reputation gets so huge that everything they do is hilariously misinterpreted as some grand plan or incredible wisdom when they are generally just trying to survive the chaos.
The Eminence in Shadow S2 also pulled it off on a level where I was barely able to breathe. The show went out of its way to show he's a moron with a truly childish understanding of economics.
You're gonna be disappointed then imo, because let this grieving soul retire is kinda dogshit honestly. Might just be me, but the episodes i watched have all been pretty subpar.
@@shuvelstone1331 It's yet another LN adaptation that's extremely mediocre. While I can't point to anything in particular that's _wrong_, there's nothing _right_ about it. All of the charm and humor from the written source are lost and basically none of the jokes land.
The manga adaptation is pretty good, though. I hope some people at least give that a try (if they don't read LNs) before they give up on this series.
@@shuvelstone1331 That is a shame to hear. I haven't watched any of it yet. Can you explain why you aren't liking the show?
Caiphas Cain is not a fake ultimate hero. He is a legend
I seriously am amazed with your recommendations. I suspect I wouldn't care for some of these shows AT ALL, but you do such a marvelous job of celebrating what's unique and special about them that I want to watch them ALL now.
Ranma 1/2 and Dandadan are my top picks for best anime.
I've been so hyped for both
Watch orb
Oh, the cats were on screen again! Hooray! (also thanks once again for a nice breakdown of all these different new shows)
I've read 365 days to the wedding twice and my heart melts every time!
It's definitely one to look out for.
Just a note: the Trillion Game on Netflix (on your ending list) is the live action adaptation, the anime is on Crunchyroll.
Love this video. Haven’t had much time to look into series from the new anime season because of work. But this puts it all in one place. Thanks a bunch.
Happy to help!
Great video mothers basement once again reviving me back to watch seasonal anime I hope you never stop these because it helps me find what to watch
I've known the magical girl manager for 5 seconds, and I already love him.
He's the best, reading the manga now and its really freaking good.
Aside from 2 shows, I've had them all on my list already and mostly started watching them already! Can confirm, it's a stacked season!
Dandadan, Ranma 1/2 and Orb gotta be my favorites so far!
Poland Saga (Orb) is probably the anime I'm most excited to watch this season. It took a huge turn in episode 3 and I can't waiut to see what will happen next!
Poland Saga?
@@NoidoDev Like Vinland Saga, but Poland. (They are similar anime)
@@kubamarzec7234
I haven't watched it yet, but it's most likely not in Poland. It's Prussia.
Edit: I looked into it, it wasn't yet. Kingdom of Poland at the time.
@@NoidoDev 1st this is just a joke so I don’t know where this sudden accusation is coming from, but since you want to get into details it literally says in the synopsis that it’s set in Poland so I don’t know what to tell you 🤷
@@NoidoDev What are you talking about? Poland has existed on maps since 966. The anime is set in the 15th century. The characters have Polish names and the story is inspired by Nicolaus Copernicus - the author of the heliocentric solar system, who was Polish. This anime screams Poland at every turn.
to be clear - the methods of the catholic church during the time period of Orb against "heretics" is at least somewhat correct (those methods being forced recantation, torture and execution -often by burning), it's just that the suppressive methodology seen was mostly used against early protestants, not heliocentrists.
I misslclicked and spawnkilled the video
The download rewards are awesome, really liking it so far.
Orb crushed my soul in the best way. Loving it so far. Glad to see it made the list.
sooo goood I love shit like this
Wife went from being horrified to watching it with me to biographical research on Copernicus. It's great!
It's peak, most engaging anime I'm watching this season, even though it's airing in such a stacked season.
Poland Saga ❤
Damn your script is amazing, your description of anime and voice is a 10/10
I was hoping to see Magilumiere pop up in the video and it did not dissapoint!
As a longtime manga fan seeing it get the recognition it so much deserves has made me teary eyed, thanks ;v;.
Enjoy the journey Jeff, it only gets better!!
Is the anime adaptation good? I'm seeing nobody talking about it.
I just wish it was on almost any other platform. It was one looked really interesting when reading through the list of anime this season, but I don't have and don't want Amazon.
@@OriginalPiMan might I suggest... the old ways
@@OriginalPiMan Not sure if it's accurate, but JustWatch seems to be recommending AppleTV+ as an alternative.
I love watching the ones to watch videos....at the end of the season. I can't do simulcast. But I appreciate seeing how you most often than not are able to pick great anime from one or two episodes alone. And also seeing your longer reviews later on and noticing if anything changed your opinion of the anime eventually.
Re:zero
Bleach TYBW part 3
Dandadan
IN THE SAME SEASON!
Last time I had this much fun watching anime was when Frieren, apothecary diaries and delicious dungeon was airing
A show that's good, but wasn't talked about in this video is; Puniru is a Kawaii Slime on Crunchyroll. This show has a very nostalgic feeling to it, it's not deep but it's just cute hearted fun about a boy accidentally being a slime to life and now growing up in middle school he's starting to regret it. It has the same idea as Ted expect no drugs. But Puniru is a cute show with enough gags to make you smile.
40:50 DandaDan is on Netflix, too
Thank you for listing them out at the end!
The original Ranma 1/2 is available uncensored on Disney Plus at the time of this comment.
not in my country... :(
I just started watching it thanks to basement and to your comment, it's on Hulu and I'm enjoying every episode so far 😂

YES! THANKS FOR THIS JEFF ❤❤❤❤❤
Jeff, let me just thank you, thank you for putting me on the absolute peak that is Blue Box. After a grueling second round of midterms, I really needed this, and my girlfriend is just as obsessed with it as I am so now I look forward to hanging out with her even more, thanks dude! :)
How annoyingly shy is the male main character?
@@NoidoDev he's not overly shy but he's pretty insecure and anxious, can't really blame him though
@@electricant55
That's most likely a show stopper for me. I'll still give it a try someday, but not much.
Orb: on the movements of the earth is literally the definition of a peak anime, it's so fucking good. It definitely needs more recognition!
I see you've been converted
@@Ash_Wen-li character development indeed 🗿
Everyone watching anime and somewhat following the new ones, already knows about it.
@@NoidoDev yeah but as good it is, it definitely needs more attention. Especially from the mainstream audience.
It's so good

Ya done good Geoff! Thank you for so thoroughly watching that much anime, whilst fighting off the plague. You are a gentleman and a scholar. Please accept this token of appreciation along with the like and share. 🏆
love how Okarun's real name is just left out of the video entirely but Momo liking Ken Takakura was so everyone curious about the manga/anime will really have the full random bullshit go experience everyone had
After that banger episode 2 of Re:Zero Season 3 I expected half of this video's runtime to be you screaming your love for that show from the heavens. Glad that I'm wrong though, this season looks fire. Thank you for your service, Geoff!
365 Days to the Wedding has my full attention. I saw, I was curious at the name, I read the description, and I WAS IN 😂🔥 That's EXACTLY my kind of romcom!

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 YOU ARE A F-ING GENIUS!
this is adorable and so smart lmao
Thanks again for listing the names of the shows and where to find them. I rotate through streaming services and it makes it easier to go back to see what I missed on a particular service in the past. It is especially helpful when I decide to binge the entire season of an older series.
Oh I'm gonna check out Ranma too, always neat to check out a reimagined classic
Acro Trip feels like "Gushing About Magical Girls At Home" and I mean that as a compliment.
Is it ecchi?
Gonna get fat from all this good eating we have this season. Dan Da Dan grabbed my fiance and I from the first bonkers episode. And the Ranma 1/2 remake is as colorful and fun as we had hoped it would be. There's a lot to love in Fall 2024. Thanks for putting up the highlights for those of us who can't watch every single thing looking for all the winners.
"Early 2000s ecchi nonense in Tying the Knot with an Amagami Sister."
Oh good, I weirdly enough was looking for one of those in between all the wholesome ones. And shrine maidens made it a bonus. It was basically my 'fun' pick for manga, though I'm going to continue with the manga for the time being. I do keep running into someone saying it gets more intriguing later on.
Also adding Dandadan, somehow saying Rita was in it won me over.
Love the video as always but I am a little upset @15:07 you didn't say, "it was a very minor NIP pick"
I couldn't be: they removed the nipples in production.
Thanks for these videos! It helps a lot going into every season and I’ve found a lot of awesome shows I wouldn’t have found otherwise from you!
Grew up watching Ranma and loving it. Sadly was not able to finish it when I was a kid. I am happy they are doing the new one and much more manageable to watch.
Shampoo is definitely BEST GIRL!!!
Additional selling points for 365 Days Until The Wedding:
1) From the author of The World God Only Knows, so you know the characters and romance will be well written.
2) Adaptation of a COMPLETED manga series with a satisfying conclusion.
3) Romance between adults which is super refreshing for those of us who haven't stepped foot in a highschool for well over a decade. Heck - even when I WAS a teenager, I was already getting bored with the same old highschool setting romance tropes.
4) True introvert romance. The main characters aren't uwu shy about everything or overly pessimistic - they just enjoy their own space, have their hobbies, and hate attention. They are perfectly happy on their own, but don't mind sharing their space with a special someone. They have great chemistry with each other. It feels true to my own experiences of introvert romance.
5) Cute cat. And maps - do you like maps? Maps are neat.
"My Happy Marriage" and "Apothecary Diaries" are also SUPERB!
Underrated mature theme romcoms are best waifu.
I just tried the show, and I definitely agree about points 3 and 4; it's nice to see a romance between adults rather than a high school romance, and it's nice to see introverts be more accurately portrayed.
Really hope with the new series you get to do a dedicated Ranma 1/2 video sometime. Best girl Ukyo Kuonji is how I learned about Okonomiyaki as a kid.
Holy crap !! I remember coming across mechanical arms years ago and thinking how cool it was. Between multiple moved and a global panorama I had forgotten about it. Which is why it such a welcomed surprise and also rooting for because I love when passion get rewarded.
I demand a tribute to the late Leiji Matsumoto at some time! I am the old man Otaku around these parts and demand this tribute! Now to watch the video.
OH THANKYOU SO MUCH FOR THE LIST!!! idk if im just a silly but i dont think you've done this much before- its so helpful to have them all nice together for my enjoyment
Orb on the movements of Earth is my anime of the season and it's the hidden gem of the season. I also already see it as a contender for AOTY. It's unbelievable how unwatched the show is and after watching it's 3rd episode I can guarantee it's the best from the season we've seen so far.
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS THIS IS SO HELPFUL I WAS JUST LOOKING FOR SOME NEW ANIME TO WATCH!!!
It's worth noting that Galileo didn't get brought before the Inquisition because of his exposition of the heliocentric model; he was accused of heresy for suggesting the Earth wasn't the centre of the universe as Christianity claimed. It's a similar mix-up as people who claim Columbus was laughed at for saying the Earth was round, something the Church never actually disagreed with and that people had known the Earth was round for centuries (he got laughed at because he said the Earth was smaller than previous estimates and that the distance between Spain and Japan was only 3000 miles).
Also, the heliocentric model was originally proposed and mathematically proven by Nicolaus Copernicus: a Catholic canon, and the Pope told Copernicus to publish his findings.
@@matthewmuir8884 still mad about that AC Brotherhood DLC questline where you have to defend him from the Church/Templars.
Really Galileo was an arrogant asshole who eventually pissed off the wrong people so when he crossed a line he was warned about, they dragged him before the Inquisition and threw the book at him because he didn't have the math yet to prove his claims. (Heliocentrism isn't really confirmed until around Newton's time half a century later.)
Anime is about Copernicus and Poland. The Catholic Church initially resisted the heliocentric model of the universe. On March 5, 1616, the Holy Office placed Copernicus’s De revolutionibus and other works supporting Earth’s motion, including Kepler’s, on the Index of Forbidden Books. This stance continued in 1633 when Galileo, after publishing Dialogue Concerning the Two Chief World Systems, was tried, forced to recant, and sentenced to house arrest. His Dialogue was also banned. Copernican works that treated heliocentrism as fact remained prohibited until 1822 and were removed from the Index in 1835. Catholic theologians argued that Copernicus’s theory lacked proof to resolve both scientific and theological doubts, and prominent thinkers of the time, such as Justus Lipsius and Francis Bacon, supported the Ptolemaic system.
@@matthewmuir8884well it was banned for 200 years by Catholic Church so not really
I’m a big fan of the title Orb was given in Spanish. It’s ’Earth, blood and knowledge. On the movement of the earth.” Also Bring back Rafal my GOAT who the hell is Oczy 😢
I found my dad's old Shadowrun books in my adolescent years, and ever since then I've yearned for other settings that mix science fiction and fantasy like that. Not fantasy stories which include some out-of-place alien spaceships or Ancient Technology that's basically just magic, not sci-fi so soft that it's oozing midichlorians, but something that incorporates futuristic technology and magic into a setting and makes both feel like they belong.
Demon Lord 2099 isn't enough to fill that hole almost twenty years in the making, but it helps.
