I MISSED THE EQUIVALENT OF PLACE IN LEMMY? Does anyone have context?

Sorry mate. It just ended today. I'm surprised you haven't heard of it considering it was all over the platform, but you can see the end result at !canvas@toast.ooo

Tattorack@lemmy.world · 24 pts · 2y

All over the platform!? This is the first time I'm hearing about it!

Tbh I also completely missed it. This post was the first I heard about it. How long was it going on?

simple@lemm.ee · 17 pts · 2y

It went on for roughly 3 days. Canvas happened last year this time and it'll happen again next year, so keep a look out.

I suspect the problem was that like a lot of people they'll be on clients that don't seem to actually like it. I couldn't get it to work except on desktop, and I don't really use desktop to browse Lemmy all that up much.

Megumin from KonoSuba. It's a hilarious show, I'd recommend giving it a watch.

I do not understand how people keep up with anime. There seems to be about 500 different shows and all of them seem to be insanely popular, I don't understand how that works. Meanwhile I've never heard of literally any of them.

Also why are they all suddenly called things like, The Exploded Moon Is My Godmother?

Fribbtastic@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 2y (2 replies)

A lot of anime are produced with a single season that can run for only 12 episodes with 25 minutes each including intro and outro.

Some of those more popular ones do get further seasons but not on a yearly basis but there could be years between them. In case of konosuba the first season came out in 2016 with 10 episodes and second season in 2017 also with 10 episodes. Season 3 only released this year so quite a long gap between them.

However, the really popular ones are fairly overshadowing the general amount of shows being released. Just this season we got 54 new anime releases and 29 "continuing" according to MAL.

Some of those seasons are really strong like the spring season of this year in which a lot of very popular shows are released. Other seasons could then be fairly slow.

And since they are all produced to promote the source material that source material has to differentiate itself from the rest and draw people in quickly through the title. So you get titles like

  • How Heavy Are The Dumbbells You Lift?
  • God's Blessing on This Wonderful World!
  • Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?
  • Reborn as a Vending Machine, I Now Wander the Dungeon

Especially the isekai (transported to another world) genre relies heavily on that to quickly explain what you can expect.

And then you shouldn't forget that this is only that visible because more and more anime are actually making their way onto other platforms for the western audience.

Especially the Israeli (transported to another world) genre relies heavily on that to quickly explain what you can expect.

Are Israeli anime like isekai, but with Jewish undertones and/or mythology?

Alexstarfire@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

why are they all suddenly called things like, The Exploded Moon Is My Godmother?

They got lazy with naming and after a couple ended up being good despite the stupid as fuck name, it became a fad. I hope it dies the horrible death it deserves. I don't think I even look at an anime if it's got a name like that now. I just can't.

That is a part-fully autonomous remote detonator.
It stops being autonomous after the detonation, until it is recharged.

The remote charge is fully contained within it and is able to remotely deploy and detonate the charge, given LOS and other conditions are favourable.

I wouldn't call it "isekai" as in the general term. It's a "isekai parody" or rather making fun of the genre "isekai".

The anime is more comedy than isekai, the light novels on the other hand are definitely more isekai adventure than comedy. I personly did not like the anime, i hated aqua. The books though were much better, i still hated aqua for the majority of the books. The stroy had a really good ending, i mean they go fight the demon king and everything which just seemed so impossible to begin with

My comment about the anime being more comedy was a direct comparison to the books which are more of an adventure story instead of a comedy one. I just used isekai as an adjective where i shouldn't have, which i could have been put better, sorry.

About our dear goddess Aqua, shes bad in the anime but her action come off as less serious. In the books a lot of the time it is clear she is purposely being a huge bitch and pain in the ass for no reason other then to be passively malicious. She definitely has some good moments, which she ruins every single time. Good read, waaay better then i first thought from my impressions of the anime.

Looks like Minecraft but since you are posting it in the time of that current places / flags fashion trend, it is probably something out of that subculture.

shani66@ani.social · 2 pts · 2y

Impressively incorrect. Do you just think all video games are called Minecraft or something? And flags aren't a subculture nor are they some kind of tend that's going around.
