Preeeeetty sure there’s a South Park episode about what we are all imagining right now.

Netflix doesn’t green light shows based on vision. There’s no concrete plan past the first/sexond season for most any show but especially not for Netflix.

What are next?

Only tertiarily related to dungeon meshi. The first season was lighthearted fun. The second season, after a not so bueno beginning, has managed to capture most of that. It’s essentially a slice of life juxtaposed against the modern fantasy isekai. No stakes.

If you enjoy the absurdity of everyone being a gourmand, including fantasy creatures, then this will fun for you. If you are super cereal and must have a world ending disaster driving your narratives, then this is not.

Didn’t they just fire thousands of people?

Now I can finally listen to the inspiration for Gump by Weird Al.

Line break acting like punctuation.

Maybe AI can generate, you sumbitches.

I’m a hardliner so no beans in chili.

Otherwise it looks delicious.

Oh Donald.

There ain’t nothing hard about Trump

Focused on making it mostly lifeless and full of gameplay padding and monetization?

Hopefully the rest of the season is better but I’ve been disappointed with what’s been released so far and my expectations weren’t even high.

I prefer shorter shows so here’s some that tell a complete narrative even if the timeline itself may not be that long.

Cowboy Bebop

Your Lie in April

Welcome to NHK

Ping Pong the Animation

Moribito - Guardian of the Spirit

Silver Spoon

Calling some of these masterpieces is more than a stretch. Maybe cultural phenomenons is more apt.

Food cutbacks (voluntary or involuntary) due to finances is likely contributing too.

“Available”

Just because I’m literally existing doesn’t mean that time is available.

Yojimbo - samurai action/comedy

Samurai Rebellion - serious samurai (also Mifune)

Young Girls of Rochefort - French musical that will make you smile the whole time

Sword of Doom - reverse samurai where you follow the bad guy (and oh what a performance it is)

Le Samourai - French hit man movie with Alain Delon

The Apartment - one of the best written comedies of all time

Playtime - utterly unique French film that bankrupted the director (much to everyone’s loss)

The Dollars Trilogy - where spaghetti westerns were born and still some of the best music ever put on film

Pale Flower - the most noir I’ve ever seen a film achieve.

8 1/2 - a film about making film and much more

Tokyo Drifter - mediocre story that oozes style and has the incredible use of limited colors.

More:

Dirty Dozen, Butch Cassidy, Mary Poppins, It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World, and several others that have already been mentioned.

I think you missed the point of the whole thing.

Hey, you showed up on my feed again! Really loving seeing the AT again after all these years. Keep em coming.
