Equinox crunchyroll10/20/2023 ![]() I was absolutely amazed that a Western Animation didn't pander to kids. I loved that it wasn't a "5 token band" also, as other have said the use of Mezo-American Lore was really interesting and fresh. It does follow a Western "Hero's Journey" progression to an extent, but maybe not as a well balanced circle as some of us would like. That being said, the show did have a few flaws, the pacing wasn't great and the MC doesn't does a lot of rapid development only at the end of the arc. I hope I'm wrong because I really liked CrunchyRoll taking a chance on this and I do think it's a win. Which means we can all look forward to more CrunchyRoll craptacular Isekais, Harems, and sequel and reboots for good measure. The Ancient Magus Bride - The Boy from the West and the Knight of the Blue Storm (OVA) Battle Game in 5 Seconds. Akashic Records of Bastard Magic Instructor. ![]() Which is sad because I hoped the series would continue, and it also means studios execs are less likely to take a chance on more Webtoons turned animated series. And here is the full list of every title I found with French dubs (69 in all): 86 EIGHTY-SIX. I would love to see a season 2, and I hope someone can explain the post credits scene to me for Season 1.Īs others have mentioned, I doubt it will happen. I have gigabit fiber running in to my house and no other service has this issue. It's particularly disappointing because this really does feel like a story that deserved more.Īll that said, though, the reason I'm here on reddit typing this instead of watching the show is much simpler: the mother fucking buffering, oh my god. It gets a little better over time, but so far I've been left somewhat wanting in that respect. It feels rushed as well, another symptom of budget constrained animation. They don't assume the audience are 13 year old boys, basically, which can't be said for most of what comes from Japan these days. The nudity and swearing are incidental and realistic, the camera doesn't do perverted shit like focus conspicuously on cleavage and there are no characters getting "nose bleeds". Especially interesting is the fact that they do a good job of adding adult elements in a mature fashion, unlike most modern anime. It feels a bit like a discount "Avatar: The Last Airbender" style show, but with casual nudity, swearing, and plenty of blood. ![]() It's interesting and different, in a good way! The story and setting in particular really stand out. This year is 2020, why can some people think that releasing this hot shit to the world in the same year as Jujutsu Kaisen for example is remotely ok. Dub, animation, story, pacing, everything is bad. I've watched the first few episodes and I'm mostly enjoying it so far. Onyx Equinox is complete hot garbage I do hope this is a popular opinion.
