Cute

She's a HO HO HO

Really nice ost, apparently it's some dj with no previous history in anime.

>>282925000
>professional in-universe Santa hunter

>>282924875
w-why is she starting at me like this?

Another fun episode

>>282924449
FLAT

>>282924490
Imagine the smell.

It's up

>>282920922 (OP)
What's the point of making anime ugly...

>>282925973
how is it ugly
that's just what the authors art style is like

sex

Bro's fully bald at 14

>>282926189
>Bro's fully bald at 14
i gave myself a skinhead cut at 14 because i hated having to deal with hair
still do, it's fucking pointless and annoying

>>282925000
So this is like Yofukashi no Uta but more retarded?

I had no experience with any Paru stuff before this (actually started reading Beastars because the first episode of Sanda hooked me so much) and I'm kind of surprised how dense this is already in terms of themes/topics. There's a lot going on with a lot of things to say, very interested to see where it all goes.

>>282926452
Pale skelly dorks with weird tits, your theory checks out...

>>282924770
I noticed too, really fun how often the songs are just remixes of Christmas music.

damn bitches, you live like this?

look how fucking flat she is, certified DFC champion

Aren't girls cutest when they look like boys?

>>282927725
yes

>kids these days don't want toys
>they want the feeling of control via blackmail
>so kiss that underaged schoolgirl right now so i can lord you being a pedo over you forever
who raised this little asshat

headmaster looks great despite being 92 years old
>the result of near lethal amounts of plastic surgery
worth it!

>naughty kids get sent to the basement
hang on this is just reskinned matilda!

hot

>we need to let everyone know santa still exists so we can sell garbage to save the economy
the miracle of christmas isn't meant to be for saving a failing capitalist society!

why does a dedicated anti santa organization even exist

>>282928125
It's a family owned cake business you fucking midwit.

Good episode

>>282928217
yeah and? they're not selling any cakes because people have no reason to buy them

>>282928216
In a world where they fetishize youth, they're interested in the one guy who can seemingly go back and forth between old and young.

>>282920922 (OP)
This is definitely AOTS so far. It's simply insanely entertaining. I'm loving everything - the visuals, the characters, the sound, even the themes. I can only imagine how fucking kino it's gonna be by the end, right on Christmas

>>282920922 (OP)
When does Tim Allen show up?

>>282928523
>right on Christmas
is that real? did they time it so last episode is the 25th?

>>282928650
Not exactly, but it'll be in the middle of December, a week before 25th I think.

>>282928523
>This is definitely AOTS so far.
I'm liking the show a lot already but there's also literally zero competition this season.

Sinful body.

>>282928523
>This is definitely AOTS so far. It's simply insanely entertaining.

Glad to see Nips ripping this to shreds

>>282929203
I can't read moonrunes.

>>282929319
He's complaining that the show is unrealistic. Yes, really.

>>282929339
lol

>>282929203
>>282929339
Nips hated Turkey! last season too, they have terminal shit taste for all shows that are slightly against the grain.

>joy to the world but evil and fucked up
>oshibu gets spanish guitars as his main motif and ENTER moments
this adaptation is just one treat after another
thanks SS

>>282928216
They probably should've gone with a different name like the earlier translations, considering they start hunting down other descendants like Sanda.

>>282928216
ENTER, THE SALT SNIFFER

>>282929602
>thanks SS
I can't wait for their GITS. I need it so bad.

>>282920922 (OP)
Saru is becoming one of the best studios in the industry

>>282929742
Honestly I'm kind of worried about them crashing and burning, they put so much effort in and it can't be cheap. Doesn't help that they pick some weird things to adapt too like this and that Mongolian Witch manga. Hopefully DanDaDan keeps the lights on, but regardless I'll just enjoy the ride as long as it's around.

>>282929985
gross

In what planet does this thing register as a girl?

>>282928808
oh. very disappointed.

>>282930244
she makes my dick hard, so this current one

Many h-manga I've read beg to differ.

>>282930244
The sex with this type of girls is amazing

How am I supposed to focus on the insane schizo plot when I’m too busy imagining shooting ropes all over this flat skeletons chest?

>>282923071
Shouldn't this guy look like a Bogdanoff?

>>282929339
>Japs in denial about an anime that metaphorically addresses their birth rate issues
Fucking kek no wonder their government is collapsing in real time. Too much politness and etiquette in a society also destroys them

>>282927578
Why do they have 5 people in a room if there are supposedly very few children? Should be a lot of free rooms available.

>>282930518
Proof?

>>282924782
>really cool gimmick
>ruins it by explaining it

why bro? show don't tell

>>282930737
very advanced medicine, diets, and surgery solutions exist in 2080 don't question it

>>282929481
Why did they hate Turkey?

>>282931268
>show don't tell
Boring, with use Baki logic here

Is there a reason the thread is so dead? The show visually looks cool. Anyway, i speedread the Manga two days ago. It was interesting, and even if it wasn't my cup of tea, I thought it had its charm and ended on a good note. Sanda is peak MC

>>282924659
This reminds me. Her search for "oh so precious friend", it's probably gonna take a backseat to romance with Sanda eventually.

>>282931365
The anime is "weird"

This was hilarious to me and I still don't know why

>>282931365
May threads are dead too. It makes sense that the threads on here are dead, because /a/'s dead in general, but the Japanese explanation is probably because it's not airing on terrestrial television (I'm guessing. Looks pretty Amazon-exclusivey. All visually impressive shows are these days).
Anyhow, I like the anime visually so far. It's like that Scott Pilgrim anime had a baby with Kill la Kill. Also FPM's cool as shit and one of those nostalgic jpop things I used to worship as a kid, which is a plus compared to most of the dogshit soundtracks to come out of anime this decade so far.

>>282930244
mine

>>282931365
>Is there a reason the thread is so dead?
no subsplease release

>>282931365
i love the early chapters of the manga and it only gets better throughout what the season is covering. i think it'll take another episode or 2 before it gets put on people's radar a bit more widespread
that being said it is very odd that this wasn't immediately plopped into almost everyone who watched dandadan's line of sight, especially since science saru is becoming more and more of a household name in animation (among normies too), but maybe that's also why no one cares currently. because the property isn't dandadan, so those who only watched dandadan by them wouldn't give a shit. SS hasn't quite reached the level of "everything mappa puts out is top quality bro!" word-of-mouth

>>282931700
>May threads are dead too.
US Government shutdown means bots are down.

>>282932062
What would US bots be doing on a Japanese imageboard?

>>282931864
>(among normies too)
I tried shilling this to my normie friends who loved DanDaDan and I think they're just incapable of understanding the concept of consistently good studios outside of MAPPA (a studio that isn't even fucking consistently good)

>>282931864
Once Science Saru's GiTS adaptation comes out, I suspect they'll be at or near the top of the list when it comes to animation studios.
They've been hitting it out of the park one after another recently.

>I want Santa to come back so we can have our commercial holidays
Capitalist pigs approve of this.

>>282930914
I can make her happy.

>>282931700
>It's like that Scott Pilgrim
So absolute shit? What the fuck is this post.

>>282932114
Actually I'll add to this too why it pisses me off even more, it's because Science Saru was ALREADY an extremely consistent and extremely good studio. I'm a massive Yuasafag and even though they were just his slaves for awhile they were still doing amazing work, storytelling wise and visuals. Inu-Oh, Eizouken, Tatami Time Machine are all amazing visually and just great in their own right. Devilman Crybaby too, which actually got kind of big with normalfags when it aired, seemingly was totally forgotten as a Science Saru project. If any studio deserves to be totally trusted on any project they make it's Science Saru, and not just because they did an amazing job with DanDaDan but because they've been doing any amazing job since their inception (The Night Is Short, Walk On Girl)

>>282928125
everything santa claus related in christmas is inherently capitalist-coded

>>282932309
The anime, silly. I'm saying it looks similar visually.

>>282931131
it gets explained better later on but there's more than just one academy in Japan. there's about 50,000 children less than the age of 15, so the academies act as boarding schools for anyone in the sample size between the ages of 12 and 16 (maybe around 12,000 to 15,000 total) before they stop being one of the youths and go forth to magically fix their economy and birthrate by working an office job or some shit, so the academies are fairly packed. sanda talks about how they usually convert old shopping centers into their campuses just to be able to house all of the national treasure students

>>282931365
It wasn't exactly a super interesting episode. The first one had the whole "what the fuck" factor going for it. This one is OK, not great, not terrible.

>>282931365
I like the show, but I can already kind of tell what kind of retards it's going to attract, so I'm likely to avoid most of the threads for it and avoid discussing it. Same thing I did for Hikaru last season.
Modern 4chan has too many annoying schizos and gay retards from twatter/tumblr/tiktok.

>>282924799
zoro

>>282932439
The fuck are you talking about, this one had twice the content and things to discuss.

>>282931656
too flat. too erotic.

>>282931365
Youtube reaction slopmeisters are apparently ignoring so it might as well not exist for zoomers.

>>282932764

Is a bit more interesting than
>this faggot is trying to blackmail us
>and apparently there are Santa hunters

>>282920922 (OP)
Goddamn this is good, this is really fucking good.
The entire premise is absurd and the refreshing.
Direction has been phenomenal so far.

This anime is even more ridiculous than the vending machine isekai.

>>282931365
This episode was extremely lame, unless you start spamming delicious JC pics there's really not much else to do.

>>282925000
I see they're using the retconned design from the get-go.

Hanging onto that youth ojisans?

>>282933624
>The entire premise is absurd
That does not exist

>>282926142
>>282927611
>>282930244
3% sex at most (collarbone).

>>282931365
It's too weird for casuals and typical anime watchers

>>282935198
That is wrong

>>282929985
Hex Maniac potential

I'm not feeling it

>>282929985
Very 2007 Newgrounds

>>282931365
Actual reason? At least from what I've seen. there's too much anime to watch nowadays. If it doesn't immediately gain traction it gets buried.

>>282931365
you haven't noticed? 4chan is dead

>>282931365
We know the retard 'fan' of mappa, trigger
that make these kinds of anime are all wester cocksuckers so no more hype for them.
We all love madhouse again now.

>>282936328
why?

>>282932368
Do they ever get into how the "invalids" of society are treated? If normal children are treasures because they can be raised to become productive members of society, how are the diseased/mentally-deficient ones dealt with?

>>282936541
fappening+gamergate+2016 usanian elections brough in waves upon waves of the most cancerous posters known to man
they killed discussion wherever they went and drove nearly everyone else away over the course of 9 years
and now they're getting bored of 4chan and peeling off themselves in search of new pastures where being as obnoxious as possible will net them more engagement from pissed off randos
and the fags they drove off are nevercoming back

>>282936087
>there's too much anime to watch nowadays.
Most of it is literally shit though.

I really like the design on the Headmaster
Lots of layers to "Man who's had too much plastic surgery"

>>282923110
She should've been a guy. Series ruined

I think the thread is dead because when you scroll through it just feels filled with schizos. No discussion, tons of pictures

>>282931473
>it's probably gonna take a backseat to romance with Sanda eventually
Anon I...

>>282931365
>Is there a reason the thread is so dead?
This slop isn't good.

>>282926142
Needs ribs

>>282926142
Spoiler she's gay and doesn't end up with the MC

>>282937488
As expected from that degenerate of Paru.

>>282931365
Amazon exclusive jail.
Even on /a/ those shows aren't popular unless they have a preexisting fanbase. And normalfags don't torrent altogether.

>>282937488
She's not gay; the manga humiliates dykes, especially that one who finds a shy kid to groom

>>282937623
>the manga [headcanon]

>>282938004
You sound like resurrected Ono, don't hear you at all

this story about a young fucboi twink that morphs into a grizzly old man how some underlining fetish fuel to a certain type of person...

>>282937623
>cope

>>282938052
Calm down, dykebot

>>282937989
Science Saru and hating Japan, name a more iconic duo.

>>282924799
Damn, it reminded me how much sovl it had, and it was drained with descendants

>>282936620
the diseased ones, no, at least not that i can remember. i honestly think because of how advanced they make the medicine of this time period out to be, they might have removed onset disease from children entirely
the mental ones, yes, if by mental you mean homicidal/emotional tendencies, they will get to that arc this season as well. oshibu has already mentioned the concept of the basement level classroom in this episode, they still teach and nurture the "problem children" but they are segregated from the rest of the students and ESPECIALLY the adults

i want to fuck shota sanda so bad bros...

>>282936620
In a very late chapter, an annual measurement event was announced, so they сheck, how good they are as kids.

>>282920997
Who they

>>282920922 (OP)
I watched the first episode and the first minutes of 2nd. I didnt liked the premise. I despise psycho bitches and fuckers, and I also despise blackmail and strongarming people. So I NOPE the fuck outta here

>>282930244
>>282930518
Must feel like embracing a bag of groceries.

>>282937142
What? I haven't read past few first chapters of manga, so I'm essentially anime-only for this.

>>282941908
He doesn't know.....

>>282941908
Paru has changed the trajectory of their relationship a few times. Anime will probably cover their rapprochement.

>>282927973
Some anon commented that the headmaster's whole schtick seemed like something straight out of a Roald Dahl novel and that stuck with me.

>>282931365
Sadly most are fated to be filtered by parukino. Myself included once it comes to the latter half of any given paru story.

>>282942729
The later half is when it gets good

>>282943616
It didn't, it almost got back on track with the monk fight(it really feels like there was a huge filler right after Jack-o'-lantern chapter, but then Paru strikes you with the ending

>>282931365
>Is there a reason the thread is so dead?
Because the manga threads were dead even with the ongoing storytime. Sanda, Beast Complex and her latest series just reveals that Paru is some weird nepo baby that only gets her manga approved because her daddy made Baki which is Champion's crowning achievement. The first episode was incredibly off premiere and character wise and the second isn't any better.

https://youtu.be/97XdqQrPaQc?t=119
This is pretty decent.

>>282941538
This is one of the most underaged and brownest posts I've seen in awhile.

>>282928216
>foreshadows him as an enigmatic villain who has something personal against Christmas
>show a salt sniffer who just hates pagan gods

Damn, it was a local peak in manga, I hoped they would show a dawn at this moment

>>282944637
>doblaje latino
...so spanish?

>>282920922 (OP)
feel like Science Saru is the new trigger, very unique style of animating

>>282946434
really would've preferred if paru just stuck to the group being strictly santa hunters like the name implies. would've been totally fine to still incorporate the other descendants too but in more of a "you're standing between us and santa so we have to kill you too" sort of way.
where she really jumped the gun was daddy's ambitions, i totally thought that the red coats were going to lean into how santa is really the only "deity" that children all across japan would heavily want to believe in/worship due to its childlike benefits, but obviously the adults relying on those children being the future of their country wouldn't want them to lose motivation or be distracted from the strict mindset implanted into them at these boarding schools. like maybe they were being funded by japanese politicians to keep up the lie that santa doesn't exist
instead, the leader is just some priest dude who thinks none of the pagan gods should exist in this world along with a gang of worshippers who get high off the salt emmited off of his body

>>282947516
I believe the greatest sin was the expansion of the setting outside the Christmas lore. Jack-o'-lantern was still okay, but others, unrelated to Christmas, unrelated to the western culture at all, they felt a very forced injection. She wasn't able to build the Avengers with them, and it gave very little to the story.

>>282937064
He's a body horror fancervice here

>>282930244
Fuyumura is an evidence that girl that is something than sum of the secondary sexual traits

Just watched the first two episodes. I like it so far.

Someone please tell me the leader of the Saint Nicholas Hunters is named Arius

Just curious, does Jesus get brought up in the manga?

>>282951320
No, the main religious gods don't get mentioned

>>282928216
Unironically they made his outline more consistent with his actual appearance he seemed to be as thin as his daughter originally

>>282920922 (OP)
Just watched the episode, really great, specially the soundtrack I'm surprised they got someone like Fantastic Plastic Machine to do the OST
But holy shit the subs were terrible this time, where does Erai-Raws get their subs again?

>>282952512
wherever the show is from
in this case sanda is an amazon exclusive i think

>>282928808
there will be one week break... trust the plan

>Kazushige Sanda is found to be the descendant of Santa Claus by his classmate
This sounds really fucking retarded but I also loved Beastars. I'm conflicted whether to give it a watch or not

>>282953018
go watch it

>>282929985
Does this expand thingy only know how to do the "one piece" boobs?

I’m more than a little surprised to see this got an anime. Had quite a bit of fun following those threads while on vacation last year, so I’ll definitely tune in for these watch threads.

>>282928523
>This is definitely AOTS so far
Hell no

>>282953142
It can do ass just not enough screenshot opportunities for ass

>>282953362
Well Beastars is popular in Japan and Science Saru likes doing weird shit

>>282954429
Besides this and Kamen Rider there really isn't that much competition this season although Digimon Beatbreak has good world building so far
Or is the Gnosia adaptation good too? I haven't gotten any chance to watch it but anime adaptations of visual novels are usually pretty bad so I don't want to get my expectations up, I guess there's still Gachiakuta since the quality is still great and the arc they're going to adapt now is really great and there's also Princess-Session which is still surprisingly great

>>282954717
What I meant is can it make the tits more saggy?

>>282954429
I think it's pretty up there.

>>282958107
Is it

>>282943958
>>282944484
is called good written

>>282947516
>>282948340
Almost like this is a Japanese show

>>282953018
>This sounds really fucking retarded
Just like the existence of fire

Why don’t the JKs wear skirts? Do they explain it in manga?

>>282960674
No

>>282960894
Ah, no JK with Skirts... Drop

>>282960674
Feminist won, now it's all an unisex uniform

>>282960674
This series is drawn by a straight woman. That's why.

>>282960159
It's not, Paru is a furry westaboo, even her style isn't Japanese

Am I actually the first one to post this?!

>>282962191
we are approaching critical lank

>>282962191
Last one (for now; I haven't even finished the episode)

>>282958107
Not even top 3 of fridays.

>>282962384
Which are the other two?

>>282960674
The school uniform is just unisex. We see girls from other schools and they use skirts.

He talks like a politician, not like a confectioner

>>282962402
Gacha and One Punch Hoe.

>>282963084
>Gacha
??? Uma Musume releases tonight not on friday
>One Punch
That anime had a fuckton of production issues making it look subpar and it's adapting the worst part of Murata's version of the manga
Meanwhile Sanda is dumb fun with a really competent staff animating it, again there's really not much competition for AOTS unlike last season which was extremely packed
It really just boils down to Kamen Rider, Sanda, Precure (which didn't start this season), Princession Orchestra (which didn't start this season), Gachiakuta (which didn't start this season), the Fujimoto collection of oneshots that isn't out yet, Uma Musume and Gnosia

>>282962950
Paru really likes to introduce characters as unhinged psycho who then turn out to be nice people and she went all out for this guy. She didn't even try to justify it. If all this guy wants is for Christmas to become popular then why tase two fellow students and drag them to an empty room and tie them and try to make them kiss each other? He made zero attempts to explain his actions and nobody asked. Wew. Even when Fuyumura stabbed Sanda to "make him wear red" it was technically more sane than whatever this guy is doing to achieve his goal.

>>282963219
Imagine being such a mindless drone you can't even read.

>>282963288
>>This is definitely AOTS so far
>Hell no
>Not even top 3 of fridays
>Gacha and One Punch Hoe.
What am I misinterpreting according to you?

>>282963250
Heh, the most radical transformation happened with Ooshibu, from a villain to her favorite character

>>282963319
one piece isn't even on fridays and by gacha he was referring to mugen gacha

>>282963485
one punch*

>>282963485
But Mugen Gacha sucks like most narou-kei

>>282963582
yeah that guy was talking shit saying it was top 3

>>282963582
Can you make a post without buzzwords?

>>282963982
>narou-kei and sucks are buzzwords
>mindless drone and hoe aren't
Can you at the very least get better bait? What did this show even do to you anyway to bother wasting time like this?

It's over, pretty boy

>>282956665
Is this what you wanted?

>>282964421
unwoke edit

>>282962191
Would you an androgynous cryptid, /a/?

>>282964667
why not

Did they change the phrase? It kinda ruins the joke

>>282966560
Subtitles are bad

>>282942729
>>282944484
Well Beastars had the furry community to back it...How well did this manga sell? I figured Paru was just the type of author where you love or hate her work and enough people are in the 'love' group to allow her to write whatever the fuck she wants.

>>282966866
On her xitter page Beastars art got like x3 more attention than Sanda

>>282964421
HOLY!
