Just waiting on gob/Dragons now. I'm not very worried about gob but Dragons is a big test hurdle.

I thought about mentioning it earlier but Rankings of Kings was also a very disappointing show, started off so strong and then dipped down to a 5, where it stayed the rest of the way through.

if u read light novels at all. I do recommend eminence in shadow volume 6.
Cid becomes jack the ripper and dresses like the joker and goes around being a serial killer. Very fun volume to read, can't wait to see that one adapted.

I think it's one of the best shows of all time although season 2 is more side stories than it is a season 2


What about odd taxi

i felt the opposite. the show started weak and got really good imo. Especially some of the characters feeling bland and one dimmensional early but were given a lot more later that made me actually care about some.

It was really effective the first one or two backstories showing the evil guy is kind of an alright guy after all. It then became way too repetitive and predictable IMO, which is what killed it for me.

My shining beacon example of a simple fun show that is neither too ambitious nor too formulaic is Spy x Family.

Yeah the fact that basically every notable character gets a backstory that thoroughly explains their actions and motivations is what really draws me to it

I should be working on my research but instead here I am listening to Garth Brooks, occasionally reading a few assignments, and waiting on Dragons. It's a simple life.

I mean, assuming you're town, it's not really clear why this makes jjh scum. He was the reason people went fishing on Ydrasse in the first place, and I don't think his reasoning for it is wildly irrational.

He intentionally stalled out your wagon for days on end to try and force middle-road voters to make difficult decisions and to see what compromises would play out. I've been very annoyed by it but it's pretty clearly town-motivated.

I don't think a single person in this game has claimed you are obvious-town. The simple conclusion is that it is in fact not obvious at all.

It doesn't make me any less wrong if you flip town, but something tells me you have also misvoted town that are trying very hard a time or two.

And it’s not ATE. You don’t ask me a single question or put any sort of pressure on any of my reads, but you vote me and you say I haven’t given you anything. We deserve to lose.

Perhaps this is pedantic but it seems to me that it is less "I am going to flip town and I'm going to be pissed" and more "I am town and I am pissed"
