    Blade of Demon Destruction is my absolute fave lately. You guys should give it a shot.

    Did anybody know or even care that AoT's 3rd season is out already? Just found out.

    I thought it came out this weekend

    the 1st part of season 3 was boring as hell, and the animation didn’t look as good...I hope this 2nd part of season 3 is as good as S1 was for me

    AoT really dropped off the face of the earth. I still have to watch the end of season 2!

    Season 3 is worth it IMHO. They do a lot of story telling and history lessons but only if you are invested in it.

    I think the hype isn't there no longer.

    The Live action movie with Japanese actors never lived up to it, it wasn't all that.

    Yup, the first episode of season 3 sucked me right back in(just like the Rockets). YMMV.

    Dororo
    One Punch Man [season two]
    Attack on Titans [season three]
    Black Clover
    Kimetsu no Yaiba

    Honestly... Does One Punch Man have new writers or something? I liked the first 3 episodes of season 2 (they were okay) since they featured Saitama and were building up towards something, but the last 2 episodes were dogshit. Overall, this is turning into an underwhelming season. Can't believe I'm saying this about OPM.

    The show is following the source material and trying to build other characters.

    A lot of shows suffer from "protagonist syndrome". When the one character everyone wants to see isn't involved, people tend to have trouble caring. It's a particular conundrum for this series because the protagonist wins every fight instantly. They have rely on other characters fighting to build any kind of drama.

    They dodged it in season one, Saitama was front and center for all but one episode, but these last 2 episodes have been a slog.

    This 5th episode is especially problematic, since not only was Saitama nowhere to be found (for the most part), it also failed to develop other characters. It was literally a filler.

    It's picking up for sure. But episodes #4 and #5 were doo-doo.

    I think the new studio sucks with the animation and has bad cuts between scenes.
