I'm going to Toronto on Friday for a few days, mostly to get away, see a few online friends, see some wrestling (won't be going to the WWE shows then because I can't afford to but there's plenty of smaller shows in their wake and one of those shows has two of my absolute favorites wrestling) and to see Kirk Hammett's horror collection at the museum there.

As it turns out, Iron Maiden is also there for two days. I didn't plan for that. I may need to see them again despite seeing them last week.

so this is actually my third pass, although only my second pass of the third season

Ok, so here's the thing about Mineta. He's objectively the worst part of the show, but I actually think the show takes advantage of that to draw attention away from how horny it is even when he isn't in the scene. Like there are so many of those typical fan service shots, and like it's fine? It's fine. Teens are horny. But also we really need the audience to see how shapely these girls are.

Hagakure? How would you even know this gag character was a girl if she wasn't wearing shirts with a pronounced bust.

Uraraka? She talks about how she doesn't think they got her costume right the first time she puts it on, but then she doesn't change it during the licensing arc when everyone updates their costumes, so she's stuck with the body suit and the... hoof... heel... boots? High-hoofs? No idea what they are.

Yaoyorozu is mostly played straight because she has to have exposed skin to use her quirk, but then she ends up ripping her costume and exposing herself a lot of the time anyway.

They even gave Tsu big boobs. The only girl that the show never seems to leer at is Jiro, and it explicitly calls attention to this when Mineta is trying to use the peephole and doesn't mention her.

Then there are the pro heroes, Midnight and Mount Lady, who again, their costumes and stuff make sense because of their quirks. There's even that scene where they go on a talk show to talk about sexy costumes.

None of this is to say that the show doesn't show off the guys either. There are plenty of attractive dudes. But with the exception of maybe Mirio, the camera doesn't focus on them the same way.

I have no idea where I'm going with this. It's an anime. It's a shounen anime. I find myself paying attention to it more now, though. Maybe the point is that Mineta is a symptom (but also can we please just treat this symptom, ugh).


I still really enjoy the character work of the show. I will always love my angry gay son Bakugo.

also the dub is good and there are people who don't like the dub and i just don't get it

what part is the anime on now i took a break from reading the comic after the overhaul arc which i liked and uh accidentally never got back on

i also agree with what you said and not to give the show any leeway but it's also a shonen anime based on american superhero comics where all girls and women are dressed and proportioned similarly so yeah the symptoms are deep

Everyone dislikes every dub is my experience at this point. Some people will never be happy.

Overhaul was introduced in the last two episodes of season 3 and we don't even know what his deal is, so I guess his arc is gonna be this coming season.

There's also some Sensui-looking dude called Sir.

Okay word.

I look forward to when the comic has ended in ten years so I can start reading it again.

The scene where the generic sailor talks **** about the squid-villain and immediately proceeds to get squirted in the face and smacked into a wall to never be heard from again will forever be my favorite moment in the series.

Also why is Gang Orca so cool?

because he is the number 3 villain in the ranking of heroes that look like they should be villains


I watched the movie they made, Two Heroes. It was like watching fan fiction. Pretty disappointing.

Saw Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark yesterday. Pretty solid PG-13 horror, has some legit suspenseful sequences and the monsters all look like the illustrations I remember from the books. Don't think it'll really scare anyone who's not a kid or teenager but its def a good gateway horror movie and also surprisingly a Vietnam movie?!

oh i watched an anime today everyone the streak is broken

I finally got around to watching Perfect Blue. I guess you could argue whether its horror but I wanted something different for the first horror film of October. It was pretty dope. I am totally sure I am the first person in the entire world to go "oh hey this is very De Palma".

i guess that's why i've seen so few horror anime despite it being theoretically in my wheelhouse

I'm sticking to new horror film per week this month. I used to be delusional and think I could do 31 movies in 31 days but with all the stuff I'm doing this month it ain't gonna happen. Horrorthon basically counts anyway since its almost always 90% movies I've never seen before.

The Mandalorian is basically Samurai Jack but Star Wars. Fully onboard with this.
