Does the anilist api give you the release date of individual episodes? If so you could do a check to see if they're all the same day. Or is that what you were getting at when talking about parsing nyaa?

Maybe in the future for shows like this that are dropped all at once a discussion thread for the whole show instead of individual episodes would make sense. I guess most shows are too long to watch in one sitting though, unlike this one.

Just finished watching the whole show. A couple plot points were really dumb, which is unfortunate because there are only 6 episodes so it was being dumb at least 1/3 of the time. The most impressive part to me was that it didn't look like ass despite being 100% 3d-rendered. Certainly not the worst thing I've ever seen, but I won't be recommending it to people either.

This episode was a great reminder of why Haryu is just the best. What a guy.

Yotsuba&! is great! I wish it got more recognition as a hilarious manga rather than just a stepping stone for Japanese learners.

My favorite though is Kaguya-sama: Love is War. The characters are all insane in the most perfect ways. Skip and Loafer is a close runner-up though; I love its characters for all being so grounded they feel more like people than manga characters. It's a very different feel than I get from other manga.

Even if they're "real" the decision was made to not release them. They're stories that were specifically chosen to not be canon.

Good to see that the Desmonds continue to deliver on being weird as hell.

Okay, thanks! I just wanted to be sure it wasn't a bug.

Am I missing something? As far as I can tell the third episode hasn't aired yet. Did the bot just bug out because Netflix has it listed despite it not being available for another 5 days?

I can't believe they ended it there! Anyways, great episode. I really like how color was used here, especially how red was used for contrast in an otherwise colorless scene.

No, but it might as well have been for all the awareness the mangaka appears to have had for what they were writing.

Tried reading Hakutaku, Shonen Jump's newest thing. A game development manga sounds like a cool idea! Anyways, wow. That was complete shit. Character A (can't remember her name, doesn't matter) has been developing games for 3 years instead of going to school. She's bad at it. Character B (can't remember his name, doesn't matter) has been learning to develop games for closer to 3 weeks. He's somehow, inexplicably good at it. He can program. He can do art. He can do game design. He can do sound. Of course, this is all just stuff we assume he can do since the manga doesn't show us any of this. It just shows those two teaming up and agreeing to make something together, then BAM! It's done! Just like that. And everyone loves it. So Character A asks Character B if he wants to make games with her again with her as the producer and marketer and him as the person who does literally everything else. No clue what a producer or marketer even does here, and the manga sure isn't going to show us. He agrees, and BAM! They made a fun game again. Completely off-screen. I'm dropping this. It already occupied too much of my time at 3 chapters; aint no way I'm giving it more.
