You're the Best 😊😊😊❤❤
Don't get me wrong. I love this channel, mostly the hottest trash. And I do love me some trash at times. My question directed @Mother'sBasement is going to be... Is this meant to be praising, insulting, or doing some sort of 'this is bad, but it's good' kind of skit?
Why are the time stamps labelled with the real anime names? When did this happen?
The first one agrrevates me. Its like someone saw Overlord, took its most annoying elements of instant wins and such, and took put any pomp or style middleman
Honestly your appearance speaks louder than words. Not cari9ng about your opinion.
It is funny how Chained Soldier flips the whole "why are women interested in harem protag-kun when he is the most boring man alive" by just making him emotionally supportive and good at cooking and housekeeping.
And also secretly a mountain of fetishes. My man is just _unleashing_ those repressed desires.
Well, there's also the quite simple and valid reason that he's the ONLY guy around for these girls that are permanently stationed in the other dimension.
The Gojo Wakana approach
…Also, you know, that whole thing to do with the entire conceit of the story being about him actually _learning_ about the kind of man he truly is deep *down.* He is finding out the kind of things about himself that he would never _guessed,_ were it not for the central premise of this story.
So being able to make good food and clean well will make girls wanna tear off your pants?
The way this is evolving, I wouldn't be surprised if next season Geoff wears a real suit and does an entire Oscars-style ceremony.
Yes. Perfect. No notes.
I would pay to see that
Too classy
okay, but monocle when?
Only if he for the first time pronounces the word "harem" correctly, and then confetti flies everywhere.
My only reaction to Chained Soldier was "after so many of these slave isekais, I can't believe somebody only _now_ made one for the 'step on me mommy' crowd". You'd have thought that'd be a niche that'd be catered to way quicker.
I read a lot of manhwas for women and the slaves there usually are of "step on me mommy" kind, just not ecchi
Tenka
There's a theory that the "rewards" in Chained Soldier are actually from the master's subconscious and they just assume it's Yuki's, which would be even funnier if it ever turns out to be true.
I'm reading the manga, and I think it goes both ways. Many times the reward really seem to come from the master's mind instead of Yuuki's.
I haven't read all of it so I'm not sure if we get a confirmation or an explanation on how it works later on
Whoever in-story they're from, everybody's learning a whole lot about the author, that's for sure.
There's no way Yuuki is, say, making Ren do the whole dog thing, when none of this other rewards are remotely dommy.
There's just way too much consistent variation to them for them to be all from his subconcious.
This is definitely the case.
what is really funny to me is that i believe the girls are gonna end up doing stuff or making him do stuff and lie and say they are being forced to reward them when in reality they actually like it or want to it seems. you can already see it when the commander is calling him a pervert but blushing and smiling at the same time lol. All in all i love the chained soldier anime though solid story nice action and all the naked stuff its brilliant
Hokkaido Gals would better be described as a Hokkaido tourism ad with a harem subplot
Would even be out of the list if it was a hokiado ad romcom instead.
Don't forget the god tier dub with that minnesotain accent.
@@EllRiver for real?
@@Cole205 Hokaido *is* the midwest/canada of Japan
@@LibertyMonk i know that I was asking if the dub of the Hokkaido Gals anime uses North Midwest accents
As someone who has binge read all of Chained Soldier while angrily going "WHO ALLOWED THIS TO BE GOOD!?" every 5 chapters or so, I'm so glad this series had the honor of being the main course for this season
There is a surprisingly powerful story behind Chained Soldier's lewdness, and a few twists that I honestly didn't see coming. It's a good read.
I just wish the studio wasn't embarrassed to make it ecchi and would stop censoring scenes from the manga or removing them.
Right! RIGHT!!!
I couldn't believe how genuinely compelling this stupid fucking series was. I thought there must be something wrong with me as I found myself continuing to turn the page.
And can we also appreciate that they don't lewd a Loli no matter how old she is, so refreshing for a Harem series
"My favorite magical girl anime is a story about a girl named Utena learning to grow up"
"Ok, which one"
Oh no lol
The hilarious part about Instant Death Ability is that the MC has that ability just because the author didn't feel like writing fights. Basically said that we all know the MC is always going to win, so might as well just give him an instant win button so that we could get to the other parts of the story.
I got the impression the point of the show isn't what's going to happen, but expounding on just what kind of monster the MC actually is, or would be if he were amoral.
What a simplistic and dumb take
what id its real tho@@PetyrC90
That's a really stupid way of looking at things. That's like saying all songs end, so who cares what will be heard.
Or better yet, write a story that doesn't require fight scenes.
I love that 100 GFs was such god-tier trash that Geoff still can't help but bring it up twice a season later.
gushing over magical girls actually goes pretty hard as time goes on, the part right now is just the prologue.
Sometimes it also goes wet.
Prologue just ended this week. ITs time for the actual quality going forward
They're 14. I aight watching that shit
@@9itsjustme2 Same. I'm tired of it showing up when searching for other magical girl shows
@@9itsjustme2hot take, but actually it's ok to have media that depicts young people learning about their sexuality, and making any discussion of kink extremely taboo makes its it hard for people to become comfortable with themselves as they get older, **especially** if they're in a marginalized community. So I think MahoAko is actually a good kink positive lesbian story about teenage (and some not teenage) girls discovering and grappling with their sexual desires.
I love how the running gag with the waiter not knowing how to pronounce "adieu" subtly pays off in this episode, suggesting he actually DID start learning French after that last episode
You neglected to mention the guy who wrote/created Chained Soldier was also the same guy who wrote/created Akame ga Kill. It explains a lot.
Yes, The influence of Esdeath is blatantly apparent. THANK YOU AUTHOR-KUN!
Honestly, I couldn't see the explanation. As far as I've gone into Akame Ga Kill, it's a story full of tragedy and death at every corner, especially first episode. Chained Soldier feels as comedic relief, and, for some ,'relief' materiel. Also, Esdeath looks much cooler than her counterpart
I enjoyed Akame ga Kill, so now I will be checking this out! I'm pretty vanilla in terms of kink, but hopefully, I can look past that aspect.
@@collinbealyeah Akame Ga Kill was a really good anime
The minute I saw a frame of it I thought "Well _somebody_ liked Esdeath from AGK a lot..." and didn't bother looking up the creator. This reveal is hysterical.
Chained Soldier a.k.a. bdsm roleplay gives you superpowers, at least it is an original hero origin story.
I honestly like the story line and the main character's power. Him having different forms depending on who he's chained up to is honestly a cool power and leaves room for some pretty inventive transformations.
But the story also is softcore porn at times and we're literally one faulty zipper away from him actually penetrating one of them.
@@andrewowens4421thank you finally someone who uses the definition of softcore porn properly instead of idiots just applying it to women in skinware.
@@andrewowens4421its more of a guessing game to see what will happen that leads to him getting laid as a reward and who is gonna be the first one.
I'm sure there's some esoteric erotic comic that did it before. Kinky parody heroes are already an old trope. Besides, even if we ignore similar things like Witchblade, there's Kill La Kill.
@@bthsr7113 they were protagonists in that one. This one is a harem anime the two may have ecchi themes in them but they are not the same genre. Also consider me shocked when I found out Witchblade takes place in the darkness universe.
you have no idea how proud i am to have read all of these mangas before they got a anime, and predicted that they would all get a anime
I never expected having an anime of the wedding rings, honestly. As Geoff said, it's something you would read like 20 years ago and by today standards in fantasy bullshit escapism it lacks the edge, at least until the part I reached when it was new. The art was very good and the waifus were crafted to the milimeter, though, I suppose a combination of that and getting tired of edgelording made this popular enough.
I honestly surprise the insta death one got an anime. The series is fun in concept because it take the power creep of isekai to its logical conclusion, but I didn't think it would get an anime because it didn't seem that it would be popular outside the group of isekai fanatic that can name call all of the parody stand in. I kinda hope Geoff stick with it to the end of the season because it steps into Lovecraftian territory, and that turn it into a unique piece of trash that might be worth discussing?
How is the Tasles of Wedding Rings, other than that I have read a good 20 chapters at least of all of them, though fell off hokkaido girls decently quickly.
While I'm not on the prestigious level you are on, I'm pround to have been reading Chained Soldier long before the anime.
You must have been waiting a long time, that wedding ring manga is like a decade old, and I didn't like it back then either lmao.
I love that Hokkaido girls dub, just flat out made the main girl Canadian.
The best part is the reason is probably because Hokkaido is up North like Canada, so why not?
Canada sucks ass
Can’t stress this enough. It’s so fucking funny
Finally science has determined the northern equivalent of the classic dub version of Kansai being U.S. Southern.
Well, it sure does beat Boston accent
Oh god, this is like when they give Osakan characters uber-thick Texan accents isn't it?
The english dub of Azumanga-Daioh haunts my brain to this day.
"5 filthy garbage barges full of bdsm gear and Sailor and the Seven Balls dvds bathed in the white hot glow of an oil based lube fire"
You're a poet with these awards, Geoff.
One of my favorite ones he’s ever written
This was a season of concentrated trash instead of a large amount of trash
Quality trash over quantity trash
I hope this becomes the norm because anime trash has been cooking lately.
True. And none of it was cursed. Like the dog one in the last one of these.
8:30 Counterpoint, Rentarou Aijou is something better than a god though, a really really good boyfriend.
*a really, really, really, really, REALLY good boyfriend
With how many feats Rentaro have i would not be surprised if he is revealed to be a demigod or something.
Very rare to legendary to find boyfriends like him in fiction or irl. In the words of the 100 girlfriends, "Rentaoru is a chad!"
he is also canonically stronger than at least one god (god of infinity chapter.)
Mild spoiler: (edit: dpetersz beat me to it)

Our boy Rentarou straight up terrified a god into submission for messing with his girlfriends' personalities in one of the recent chapters.
"Hey lady, I'm just as surprised as you are.......but don't stop." 🤣
The Instant Death anime actually hooked me when they revealed that the Protag is basically an SCP, his code name being Alpha Omega, which is given in relation to him being the *literal embodiment of the beginning and end of all things and the absolute nothingness thereafter.*
If it was just a guy with a funny op power that kills a person instantly then it would've lost steam in the first three episodes but as the show goes on we see more and more of basically the SCP Foundation being involved and now I'm really curious to where it goes next.
Plus because of the death game thing, he gets to kill all other isekai anime protags. He gets to kill rezero's subaru's witch, he kills the entire harem of arifrueta, he also kills the fish version of galactus. Its just fun to see whats the next genre he will kill.
@@lokey8084 The death game aspect is barely part of the premise, it's not something explored. It's more of an accidental implication than plot.
I was directed to the manga shortly before the anime was announced, and I quite frankly hate how much I enjoy Gushing Over Magical Girls. I've never scrolled past manga pages so fast in my life. But, UNFORTUNATELY, the characters ARE very charming and it is somehow extremely funny on occasion. I hate it so much.
because it's good.
Don't worry, you are not the only one in that case. But I will say it's the fault of my subconscious for making me continue to read, it seems to be a valid excuse.
The worse part it is that its genuinely good. It makes no sense whatsoever
The BEST trash is the trash that makes you hate how much you enjoy it
I thought I was the only one
The LN of Instant Death Ability was really funny, and in an intentional kind of way. It's a satire on the idea of being overpowered and how it mean completely nothing. If the author says that this character is untouchable and can kill anyone, they can, there is no need to overcomplicate it. The anime completely missed the point by trying to make it edgy and dramatic (originally it was supposed to be shocking at the beginning and kind of tragic later). It also dabbles into satirizing power scaling and isekai tropes.
And while the MC's power would normally make the story super boring, it actually makes it even more interesting. Every other character has and regularly uses some kind of op abilities, from manipulating time, deleting concepts, to eldritch-horror-outer-entity. They cause plotlines to happen completely in the background, influencing the world and its many interesting locations, other plotlines and in the end also the MC. It forms a sort of meta-narrative on the pointlessness of it all, since if someone is enough of an asshole to try to kill the MC while he is doing nothing to them, they die no matter how important they might have been to the world or how powerful they were considered to be.
The story was moderately well written, and less trashy than one might expect. I'm definitely following the author's works, no matter how bad the title may be. Or maybe it's some sort of reverse genius.
I hated the manga at the start and then did a 180 when it was revealed that MC is actually a world-ending-threat level SCP that is the physical embodiment of death/entropy, but it's fine because he's just trying to enjoy life as a "human" and isn't actually interested in abusing his power. His whole backstory is way more interesting than the initial start gives it credit for.
so one punch man
I actually enjoy the anime so far, because it seems to be taking its premise so seriously. The bit where Donnoura was like "Aren't you going to kill them?"
And he says, "What? Why would I do that?"
"Because they got in our way?"
"That's insane. You think I should just kill anyone who gets in our way?"
"Okay yeah when you put it that way it sounds pretty messed up"
This precisely. It's a whole parody on the ridiculousness of modern isekai and honestly pretty entertaining, but the anime just seemed to fail in every regard to the point I find it actively harmful. It wants to be edgy, but it uses terrible shadow censoring to hide it all (guess the studio couldn't get an appropriate time slot?) It wants to parody the genre, but it skips so much timing that the pacing is thrown off and becomes a prime example of the genre. And not to mention what is probably the absolute worst voice I've ever heard in an anime. Hell, they made the main character look MORE interesting which is directly opposite of what the idea of this series is. I couldn't even make it through the start of episode 3, which makes this the worst adaptation of a manga or LN I've read period (and I've been through far too much).
tldr read the LN or manga, it will be far, far, FAR more worth you time.
TBH I don't think the anime is very edgy and dramatic, it mostly lives on the manzai-style comedy duo.
I think Gushing Over Magical Girls may just be the new frontrunner in "anime most likely to get you put on a list" and that's impressive because that race has a *lot* of strong contenders
I happened across the magical girl show just now, watched the first episode out of morbid curiosity, and then immediately looked up Mother's Basement. And lo and behold, there's Utena's face right there in the thumbnail. Chez Garbage has literally never failed me, 10/10 establishment
Will say as a manga reader the main character for instant death really in the manga doesn’t feel too much as a protagonist with the girl really being more of the protagonist and he’s more of a SCP currently following her around as they break others stories.
Going into it with the idea of a girls isekai journey with 682 or The Scarlett King makes it so much better. The other side of it mocking troupes is still there but muted.
@@LevinQGame The story really feels like if might be more her journey then his. She has character development and part of it is learning to horrifying backstory of the thing she relies on for protection.
I found the I enjoyment of the show isn't so much in the battles but how he applies He's standards of morality to determine whether to kill or not.
It’s actually really good, but the anime adaptation is god awful
Anyone can tell me what they want, Mahou Shoujo ni Akogarete (Gushing over Magical Girls) is a wtf masterpiece. There's so much wrong in this anime but I haven't been smiling, laughing and grinning when watching something for a long time.
This one's definitely my favourite from the current season (followed by the Hokkaido gyarus)
Mahou Shouji ni Akogerete for my perv self was good and fun until... kids... like... worse than kids in Dragon Maid S.... like... it went so much into WTF hard... I saw the rest of the series like in a dare.
You gotta read the manga, it gets even better.
@@jessicaluchesiI'm pretty sure episodes 5 and 6 are the only ones where a kid (Alice) is directly engaged in something sexual and it will stay that way for the rest of the story. They literally adapted ALL of these questionable chapters from the manga by now, so the rest of the series will be ok for you (for example, whenever there are some group naked activities in battles, Kiwi takes a role of protecting Alice and averts her gaze or plays with her so that Alice wouldn't witness all that kinky stuff)
@@jessicaluchesi I feel like more people are willing to excuse these kinds of freaky anime bullshit series when is vaguely queer and like... We shouldn't
In the same way we call male characters predators for groping fellow schoolgirls we should also call out the quirky lesbian schoolgirl that enacts her fetishes on unwilling participants too...
@@Homodemonpreach 👏🏻
Gave "Gushing over magical girls" the lone spotlight in the thumbnail, huh?...
And that's EXACTLY THE RESPECT IT DESERVES!🙏
Les go boys!
It is trash Pedo Porn.
Definitely made sure to wait to get that chapter 10 footage in
It's all like 13 and 14 year Olds though.. lmao.
I thought this was going to be a dedicated video to just that, and as a long time reader of the manga was excited for that. It could still happen after season 1 is done!
@@michaelwhite253 and? Nobody is forcing you to watch it.
I found out about Gushing Over Magical Girls a week ago.
After watching the six available episodes I read 57 chapters of the manga twice and then the seventh episode.
I have so many feelings about this series and I need more
I watched the episodes and then did the same with reading the manga. And then was disappointed that it wasn’t yet getting an English publication yet….
@@Foxfire-xq5ij I'm just disappointed that I can't recommend it to people without being judged
Based and art-pilled.
i like the longer story in gushing over magical girls, its starting to get some medoka vibes with the mascots
When the reader discovers Vena actually has fingers. DEAR GOD.
Things are getting tough and insane these days.

@@hideandslide4586 and 20 hours after that
As someone who really likes GOMG, I cannot stress enough that the diaper stuff doesn't happen in the manga
good to know
the chapter does happen way later in the manga, and the anime had to completely rewrite the chapter and add a ton of filler to bring it this early in the anime & make it a whole episode. with everything that was change/remove(aka all the good parts) from that chapter, it basically made that episode an anime original episode.
it does, the anime is just not in the same order
LMFAO That was anime only??? 🤣🤣The animation team must be really passionate about the source material to go above and beyond like that just for one gag storyline.
It does tho
I have a genuine appreciation for Gushing Over Magical Girls thematically on the basis that there are very few series which acknowledge what being a teenager and realising you're into stuff which adults *really* don't want to explain to you actually feels like. It's often terrifying and embarrassing, but it's also inherently pretty funny once you're old enough to look back on it with any degree of separation.
5:41 i am not normally one to criticize animation quality but this falling animation looks so much like someone dragging a PNG around their screen that it caught me off guard
Having read the MahoAko manga, I can confidently say that the self discovery and sexual awakening stuff becomes the main thematic throughline and I would say it is unironically a really interesting exploration of what it's like to be a teenage girl discovering your sexuality, and specifically discovering the parts of sexuality considered taboo. There's something to be said for it showing that, yes, teenage girls do have fetishes and actually it's ok for you to have those feelings.
Mark my words, it's going to be considered a sex positive lesbian classic in 10 years.
Haha as someone in their 30 I honestly don't wanna be told again an again that i should like looking at 14 year old anime girls practicing S&M though....
@@Homodemonlol that's fair it's for sure not for everybody.
I can't stop thinking about the fact the main character is named Utena. Like, to even have the balls to invite that comparison. But then, the fact that it kind of works.
@@Homodemon Nobody is telling you that. You can chose not to watch/read. If you are watching it w/ that mentality, then your suspect asf.
@@Homodemonmeh. I watch South Park. Those kids get into things way worse than bdsm.
Yeah, I can't even argue the yuri thing. I have accepted things in yuri that were deal breakers in other romances just because the pickings are so slim.
I hope you tune in for Gushing Over Magical Girls for these next few episodes, cuz its going to have some crazy fight sequences, at least, I hope they'll be animated well.
They're literally improving the manga! Every episode has been great so far!
I would rather die than watch it anyways, I mean all the girls are 14 and they dress and act like that? That's horrendous and unacceptable
As an ace manga reader: Gushing over Magical girls is by far the best echi manga/anime I've ever read
In most of these shows the questionable parts constantly distract from the plot
But here the questionable parts *are* the plot
And got there's some PLOT here
The character development, actual non-bait yuri, the fuckn power system?
(Though it's probably a better read then watch, since quickly reading past the kinky bits does a lot for you when this kink of the week isn't what you're looking for)
Yeah I think the anime does better with fleshing out characters at the right times by switching a few bits around, but if you can't handle some real kinky shit (we ain't stopping at 50 shades, we're going full AO3 here girls) the manga is much easier to flip through. Also while I enjoy some of the anime fights, the manga's liberal use of black and some good 2 page spreads are definitely better. But we'll see if they saved any animation for the fights in the upcoming back half of the show, since they did save some for kiwi's introduction. Also the manga and anime both have amazing faces but I think the manga just has a few more higher quality reaction faces.
And yeah there's actually a lot to grab onto for plot theorizing and general media analysis that's a lot of fun and very interesting. It just has you saying shit like "yeah the part where someone gets age regressed and spanked says a lot about how society views violence and is also extremely plot relevant." Or writing a paragraph about when the girl pisses herself in a diaper and what it says about her character and the themes surrounding it. Am i overanalyzing? Definitely. But the fact I can overanalyze it this much is certainly more than can be said for most smut
As a fellow ace manga reader
I 100% agree
Overanalysing isn't real the Illuminati made it up to trick people into buying more cellphone straps just relax and enjoy art the way you want to. @@molluscumlore
It's all about self discovery so discover yourself.
I'm ace too and I think there's an element of how sex/kink is treated both as a weirdly well-integrated world-building element and a jack off material that's just idk fascinating? In most works you see smth that's so horny it turns you off as a minus, but in GOMG the ecchi feels so intentional that you end up being kinda awed by it. It's a weird loop of an ecchi that's too horny it turns you off, then you just see the kink as part of the world-building, and then sometimes the kink is surprisingly well-handled that it kinda excites you, then back again. Not to mention the yuri actually have an interesting sexual chemistry that makes sense for the characters. It's actually kinda terrifying that the series works given all the red flags it has
I'm watching all but the first one of these and I don't know if I should be proud or ashamed. I will say Hokkaido Gals is the only one that I feel truly invested in but it is because their dynamic is so much like Wakana and Marin and it really hasn't been done to death. Yet.
I think the employees on Chained Soldier decided to animate the monsters with CGI in order to provide budget for the ecchi scenes. And honestly.
Until now, I can't believe that this anime is from the same author as Akame ga Kill.
Well, that's certainly not the case, considering how lackluster the ecchi scenes in the anime have been. Ntm the censorship every episode.
@@rickchakraborty2087 You do know there's an uncen version right? Aniwave has it, the .to version at least.
@@FelidaeEnjoyer the so called "uncensored version" itself has plenty of censorship lol. The adaptation straight up either heavily toned down some of the ecchi scenes from the manga or just completely removed them.
@@rickchakraborty2087 I check out the uncensored and yep even then the ecchi scenes is tone down. It's either because of limited budget or the studio chicken out. I read the manga again and sure enough the studio skipped some chapters and the ecchi scenes. Then we have Gushing over Magical girls and dang the studio went all out. They went all in and the fan service is top tier and surpass the manga. Even the Osts, fight sequence are decently animated which bring Chain Soldier to shame. I expect Chain Soldier to be the ecchi anime of the season and it's just a bitter disappointment till the end. Hey, at least we got S2 to look forward and hopefully the studio will improve this time.
@@kolla5415 unless they change the directors in charge of Chained Soldier, the anime is not gonna improve with the ecchi. Nothing will change.
Dove into the magical girl anime just looking to dive headfirst into a dumpster for a VERY short little peek but Geoff is not joking around about that surprisingly good character development. This does not need to be so well-written.
Gushing Over Magical Girls is genuinely one of my favourite manga, and I'd say I'm overall happy with the anime so far. Rough around some of the edges, pacing's a bit slower but good. I like how Utena's va is portraying Utena coming into her role as Baiser, and I'm excited for the upcoming episodes now that it's getting into the story (after mixing up the chapters quite a lot, episode 6 had chapter 26 in it for some reason lol).
The voice casting of the anime is amazing
Honestly i love how they rearranged some chapters there and there in the anime adaptation
@ajinurfajri1952 Yeah, for an anime format, the changes make a lot of sense, and I like the extra SoL stuff they added.
But it has delayed the story quite a bit. My friends are starting to think I'm lying when I say there is actually a good story.
after watching the latest gushing over magical girls I was Like "wow do I really want some more yuri that isn't just plain old gay bait" and opened up citrus before thinking about what I was doing. being a lesbain into anime is a sad experience
At least you're getting something out of it, imagine how the rest of us feel that aren't even into that.
I can't believe they decided to make an entire anime based off of Minecraft's /kill command. Truly peak storytelling
The "Tie on a Hen" pun is top tier, I'm shocked I'd never heard of it before...
Gushing over magical girls really become great at episode 7.(should of been episode 6) this is where most manga reader considered as the true beginning of Gushing over magical girls. everything so far was just the prologue.
It's shitty trashy anime pedo porn. Most of the characters are 14
The girls are in middle school, they are 14 years old.
@@JD-wf2hu crazy, anyways its peak
@@JD-wf2hu cry about it.
@@JD-wf2hu they would be in high school, if the anime was set in America. also most anime series has most of their main cast be the ages of 14-17.
About instant death Isekai.
I always felt like that the anticlimax was the main idea of the series.
Kinda like how One Punchman doesn’t have satisfying payoffs due to the MC being too strong, here the MC’s cheat is too broken.
The MC never feels threatened because you can’t threaten his life and he has a detached attitude similar to a sociopath, to the point where he had to be taught “rules” on how not to abuse his power, because death is so meaningless to him.
The show also has him be the main obstacle for the bad guys rather than the other way around, which keeps the tension high, since it effectively says “how would you try and kill him, because anything we could come up with doesn’t work”
exactly, just saying he's boring is fine, but saying he's boring is the reason the show sucks doesn't make anysense when other shows have the same feeling of "MC will never be threatened ever, lets just have fun with it"
That's how I read it as well, OPM is an affectionate parody/deconstruction of shonen manga, and InstantDeath is one for Isekai. I am pretty sure there are a dozen expy's of other series' OP MCs represented, and they all end up being killed. The only one who doesn't is Aoi, because she knows what genre she is in, and realizes that Yogiri is an "outside-context-problem" that she needs to avoid at all costs.
I think One Punch Man does it better because it focuses on the other heroes and how they deal with situations. The Sea King Arc is a prime example. In the back of your mind you knew things would be resolved once Saitama showed up, but in that meantime you were at the edge of your seat as more and more of your favorite heroes were beaten within an inch of their lives.
Also, Saitama is interesting despite being a blank board. A good part of the story trying to explain the word from his perspective; how he sees everything as opposed to everyone else and how that perspective clashes with the other characters.
This anime though focuses a bit _too_ much on the main protag without giving enough to the other characters, mostly because it's in death game format and thus characters that could generate interest are killed off, so it takes away a little tension. Making an overpower protagonist work means you really need to work at make the contrast between them and the world the highlight of the story and make _both_ interesting in order to make that contrast really stand out.
I still think opm actually gives cool payoff, but not in the way you exept.
While Saitama wont loose a single combat, the true opm payoff is actually Saitama mentality and reasonning that really clash with the other character.
Spoiler, but the fight with Garou is a prime exemple in the wn. (I think the manga one fell flat compared to the original : they changed the super fun table discussion with a full planet destroying fight)
In the wn, Saitama doesnt actually fight garou at all despite his monster transformation. He is playing with him because he know deep down that Garou is just someone playing the role of a villain, despite everyone wanting Garou dead.
And if you look back nearly every fight Saitama is in is like this, like Boros where saitama let him use his full power or when Saitama is just standing here against Tatsumaki.
@@andrewowens4421 I think OPM does different things. Saitama is a lame hero with good intentions. The Instant Death guy isn't a person.
“He’s dead!”
“Yeah.”
“What kind of death?”
“Instant.”
It is actually different from regular death, because it even kills the undead
It's even deader then dead because healing is impossible
i find it funny how you were saying that gushing over magical girls falls off after the first few episodes when, in reality, the anime is about to actually get to the good shit for character development, jokes, and, so long as the don't fuck it up, fight scenes
Of the episodes out so far it really does fall off
It mainly has been falling off in the art and animation department, I really hope they improve that
@@rickchakraborty2087 yeah that's fair
As someone who has read the Gushing Over Magical Girls manga before the anime came out (we Yuri fans are just the most desperate people on Earth I swear) I have to say that despite being an ecchi-borderline-hentai it's actually pretty good! Some stuff is very nice, some very very weird but the characters have lots of personality, fun action scenes and it actually looks good most of the time!
Some say the anime is doing well especially for a Yuri but idk if it's true. I surely wouldn't mind if it gets a 2nd season tho, it gets freakier and cooler later in the manga
On the off chance you know, what was that Citrus show he mentioned in the same section? Geoff ststing how....unique Magical girls is then saying that Citrus is somehow inexcusable made me abit worried.
@@ianmckee4726 citrus is extra super uncomfy stepsister yuri
@@elizabethmcwhorter3445 Ahh, well thanks for the reply. That does sound..unconfy as you put it.
@@ianmckee4726 Citrus, is also just, dragged the hell out and makes the main couple just seem like they have no chemistry at all. Even the manga gets really frustrating. It's a shame, cause in the spinoff I actually start liking the side ship and the main pair finally get some development, but by the time that happened I already lost interest.
@@Iridescent_Astraeaoh! I fucking hate this show!
I love that a company that has contracts with the US state department is paying you to bring us this masterpiece of refuse
So this guy is basically making government propaganda?
How dare you diss my magical girl show
Edit: so you do make some good points, but I am here to argue that it does not drop off, but the story picks up after episode 6 maybe, episode 7 has an amazing ending, and the show gets better and better
Honestly, I like seeing puppers and kitties among all those things you call anime.
The single dumbest yet funniest joke in Gushing Over Magical Girls is when Utena is picking a name and she gets handed a book called “Cool Latin! Gloria!” It made me laugh for much longer than it should have.
I'm actually really enjoying Gushing over Magical Girls, the villain girls are super fun and i love kiwi and utena so much. Kaoruka too, she's got a fun personality, the other too are fairly bland but I can see them getting fleshed out a bit nore as it goes on
I quit my job yesterday, you have no idea how hungry I am for some good hecking trash.
Congratulations on your newfound freedom!
@@mothersbasement Why thank you! I intend to use this new chapter of my life to investigate these "week ends" I hear so much about.
The best part of "My Instant Death Ability is So Overpowered" is the prequel short story at the end of each volume of the Light Novel. I hope that gets adapted.
After the extremely silly situations that the protagonists go through in the main story, the short stories tell a much more personal tale of the human death god slowly opening up to his new caretaker. It's nothing especially good, but it's nice and warm.
NGL, Gushing Over Magical Girls was actually pretty good.
Gushing Over Magical Girls being allowed to show as-is is actually kind of a neat meta commentary on the whole “accept yourself, kinks and all” message that the narrative puts forth, if purely by accident.
The whole arc Utena goes through, along with other characters who follow similar themes if different in specifics, is about not letting shame and self-loathing stop you from doing the things you enjoy and suppressing your true self. And it certainly… certainly shows a lot, hardly suppressing or covering anything up.
And that’s actually, and I say this without a shred of irony, a good message. There were parts where I found myself empathizing with and relating to certain characters and their arcs. And a part of me wishes there was more of these types of anime, unashamedly forward and brazen and queer. Maybe it would help people who have similarly “taboo” interests who struggle with a sense of shame and self hatred like I once did.
The faux fancy dining intro to all of these makes me feel like an aristocrat watching a jester perform her favorite act 10/10 keep up the god tier work
Will the "magical girl but evil" thing ever stop? Never
I can personally vouch for Hokkaido Gals, having read the manga and all, that it's not the "indecisive protagonist does nothing at all the whole time" harem it may seem, and more like an "OTP countdown".
Seconded, and is it just me, or does the pacing of the anime feel way better than the manga?
I recall feeling as if it took a really long time for Natsukawa to join the cast while reading it serially, but we're not even halfway through the season and here she is.
@@vel0xraperio Yeah, the manga has had wonky pacing for a bit, especially after the switch to bi-weekly, so I do wanna see how they'll handle it all.
@@AlexTenThousand
god those 30 chapters after the first confession were such a slog, I kind of hope the anime just makes it like two or three episodes if it ever gets there even if that would rush things
4:53 This is it guys. The Death Game Anime boiled and condensed down into it's purest form. It is a sight to behold
Holy shit. I remember reading Tale of Wedding Rings 8 FUCKING YEARS AGO in my senior year of high school. I'd even completely forgotten the name! It feels like a specter from my past has returned to me. I feel almost obliged to watch it now. And to think, I probably never would have learned it got an anime if not for the immaculate service of Chez Garbage!
"Impervious to anime bullshit" i didn't realize i had reached this level yet 💀
Me: Mom can we have (Revolutionary Girl) Utena?
Mom: We have Utena at home
Utena at home: 13:57
Gushing solves the Utena message of "traditional gender roles are harmful to men and women" by removing the concept of men from existence. 5D chess move right there.
@@VoodooChile_42 excuse meWUT
@@Ramsey276oneIt's a classic trick, just conveniently don't illustrate any men in your show/manga. CGDCT have been doing it for years.
@@octorokpie ...I don't know that one...

@@Ramsey276one Cute Girls Doing Cute Things, used to refer to shows that are just about, well it doesn't matter what as long as it's cute girls doing it cutely. Pretty common for those to just *happen* to not feature any men on screen. Not with any explanation, just that it doesn't come up.
Gushing Over Magical Peak is such a crazy wylin show I can't stop watching and Chained Soldier is actually really good as it goes on with real plot besides plot
Gushing over magical girls is amazing and I love it since I’ve been reading the manga for 3 years now EXCLUSIVELY FOR THE PLOT
The way to deal with the guy with the instant death ability seems to be luring him into a mechanical trap. Like, a tripwire and a spear that comes out of the wall. Or a giant boulder, you can't go wrong with a giant boulder.
Unfortunately, the traps will spontaneously fail when he activates them
Hottest Trash is just a nice way of saying "It Shouldhave been Hentai"
And Uzaki chan's manga just entered in that category.
If that's what you think then you're missing the point of most of these shows.
I would disagree - Hentai shows typically have trash overall story.
Last two on this list meanwhile have quite good story.
You can totally rewrite both of them to have little to no questionable content, and they would still be good shows to watch.
Chained Soldier is one of those mangas where you see the name and the plot and you think to yourself "oh come on, really?"
And suddenly they've introduced 15 different girls and they've all had a taste and you're still invested in the story and it's like man, maybe a little trashy fun is okay
It's an interesting type of trash. Chained Soldier knows what it is and isn't shy about showing it. Because of that it has time to develop an interesting story and characters that are fun to watch.
It's a lovely story about a wholesome sub and his dom battlemaiden harem fighting to save the world. A billion points!
I do love how the best of series is just Jeff talking about his favorites but the hottest trash is as if you were in a fine dining establishment
The presentation of this series is getting better and better!
Goddamn do I ever love Gushing over Magical Girls. It's basically an anime parody of porn parodies of the magical girl genre.
it's still blatant child porn tho... why the hell do you people keep on brushing that to the side??
Because it doesn't shove it in your face. Like, after reading the manga twice over, I never knew the character ages until other people started pointing it out. At most I knew Korisu was probably too young, but she never got caught up in Utena's friendly fire so it wasn't an issue. For the rest of the cast, they could have been 18 for all I knew, and I don't check character ages if I don't have to.
@@garbouwdeark9103it literally has underage girls getting naked on screen and SA-ing each other in pretty much EVERY single episode so far. how is that not shoving it in your face? it's painfully blatant, up to the point of vicious exploitation
The "T" in "t-shirt" stands for "Tuxedo".
...and also "Trash".
Hokkaido Girls is basically an adorable and wholesome quasi-harem romantic slice of life that then decided to turn the fanservice up to 11 at certain times.
I have a feeling we're gonna be hearing a lot more of Fuuka Izumi in the coming months and years, and that's not a bad thing.
A little bit ago, GOMG put out an ASMR video of Utena narrating. No clue what the girl was saying, but boy did she make my head tingle.
The thing that really makes Gushing over Magical Girls great in my opinion, other than the amazing ecchi scenes, are the characters. I never expected an anime like this to have such well-written characters.
Natch. I mean we're talking about a show about a villainess who molests magical girls through BDSM, this is a show that would have been so easy to get horribly wrong (or at least super generic) and yet everyone feels so lovable even as they perform the most degenerate stuff. I felt like cheering for Utena when she unlocked her power against Lord Enorme. This show (mostly) doesn't activate my kinks but it has enough genuine fun to be had to keep me entertained

Speaking the language of the gods
I loved how (actual spoilers for a thing that happens in Instant Death is OP:)
AlphaOmega's powers of instant death are so strong he can literally kill extrauniversal/higher-dimension beings that _feed on world bubbles,_ *as a preflex action,* because the thing _considered_ *attempting* to eat the universe AO was in at the moment, thus putting his existence in danger.
Someone in the comments is still gonna say Goku could take him.
@@gsgaming6976 Depending on the activation conditions, if Goku just wants a friendly spar, then technically he might win? Or at least it might be technically possible.
I see that Gushing Over Magical Girls has been adapted... Given the original material I would have never thought it be possible, but it seems I lacked faith in people's appetite for fine trash.
and not only that but they actually made it more _cultured_ than manga...
I was like damn this sht wild. Probably gonna censored a bit in the anime. Then the anime came out and oh boy how wrong i was.
17:23 one of my favorite anime, unironically, is valkyrie drive: mermaid. i can put dumb sentimental meaning into *anything*
Basically, I think lesbians should put each other in more stupid situations.
One of your favorite animes is underage softcore pornography?
That's one of my favorites too! The characters are actually well written and I love the relationship of the two main girls
Unfortunately I'm so degenerate I can only enjoy Valkyrie Drive Mermaid ironically :(
The Senren Kagura spinoff game its a tie in to was ok too if you haven't played it. Viola is best girl but the main pair from are anime are free DLC in the steam version if you just want to let Mirei beat up mobs. @@former_discrepancies9398
Having the Shadow The Hedgehog soundtrack play during most of the edgy/ecchi menu descriptions is absolutely genius.
I didn't expect them to work so well, but they are a perfect blend. It's like the perfect lounge music for this fine establishment.
Hello Geoff, thanks for time stamping these ones!
pre-youtube tantrum gang!
Gushing is not trash it’s a masterpiece 😂
It’s a Trashterpiece
@@mothersbasement 😂 That’s the best, I will forever use this phrase to describe my favorite questionable series 😂
This is gonna be a long comment, so buckle in everyone, but I have just one thing to say to Geoff (and honestly, anyone who's now potentially expressing interest in watching it after this video) I cannot state how much I recommend using the Gushing Over Magical Girls anime as supplementary material to the manga.
I caught up on it around the time the anime even got announced, and I have to say that it became one of my absolute favorite manga over time because of how much the author clearly cares for how the narrative and character dynamics function and intertwine. The anime has been a.... polarizing experience on my end, for sure. I love how the director somehow took the already stellar pacing of the original thing and it run even better, but I'm not exactly enthusiastic about how much the fanservice was cranked up in direct comparison. A good example is Geoffs joke about Sailor Moon transformations. Now, obviously, the manga isn't doing much more to cover everything up, but it's clear the author had a lot of fun with creative censorship, both in those scenes and even in some of the more perverted moments. There's an amount of craftsmanship that the anime is unfortunately bulldozing somewhat, and as much as I appreciate the pacing and brand new scenes that genuinely enhance the character dynamics, it feels like it's pushing away more people than it's pulling in as a result.
Anyway, as an actual recommendation for the damn thing, I can safely say that the anime is actually only scratching the surface in terms of just how good the overall plot gets, because it truly kicks in with the upcoming arc that last for the next 7-ish chapters/3 to 4 episodes. After that the story really comes into itself with how the plot elements intertwine and start really enhancing one another. Plus, I'm still baffled by how GOOD the author is at expressing character arc progression and conversations through the way the fights play out. (Also I love love love the way the battle damage is drawn, there's multiple shots of Utena being half-frozen or similar things and the art is *insane*)
I highly highly recommend checking out the manga if you can, it's so worth it if you want to see a (admittedly slightly) toned down version of the fanservice and flaunting the anime has.
READ THE MANGA of Gushing Over Magical-Girl’s. I Also love Maho Seihi No Slave (chained - solider ) so much . I’ve read them for a while haha .

Come one bro gushing over magical girls and trash it's peak
Well, it’s only Azul who enjoys it. Really, it’s better to read the manga for Gushing Over Magical Girls, because it’s easier there to focus more on the action, comedy, and character elements. It helps that the manga is more censored than the anime.
Gushing Over Magical Girls unironically becomes interesting the further it goes along and legitimately evolves from using sexuality for views to actually commenting on it and how the characters react to sexuality inform and shape who they are. Or at least the manga does.
There's an arc in Insta Death about multiversal fish like beings that see realities as bubbles in a sea and they just ate them until they evolved into being able to see into them, so they're society developed a concept of morality about their feeding habits. Some of them even able to project an avatar into this worlds and live full lives as natives in what was just a heartbeat in their own perception. A complex lore system with implications and commentary on the meaning of life.
And you know how it ends. You know from the start of the arc.
I don't see how anyone could see basically magic OPM and be unsure if it's a comedy.
I can see it’s a comedy, the anime version just isn’t very funny
All these comments make me wanna try the source material though
@@mothersbasement The manga is pretty solid and it doesn't have voice actors. VAs can either save or tank a comedy.
If anything the selling point is the world building. There are dozens of power struggles happening around our dude. It pushes a ton of limits on what isekai can be.
THESE ARE THE VIDEOS THAT I LIKE THE MOST, they are so ENTERTAINING, luckily every season a lot of trash anime come out, so you will have a lot of material
I seriously can't tell if Instant Death Ability is meant to be an anti story, or just an attempt at One Punch Man gone horribly wrong
I found the enjoyment of the instant death ability show isn't so much in the battles but how he applies his standards of morality to determine whether to kill or not.
Forever a fan of this bizzare rating system and now, the tuxedo. The last one looks really good to me. Great work torturing yourself with all this trash for us 😂🙌
I've been reading gushing over magical girls for a while now. It gets surprisingly deep and all the characters are super likable!!
