Fall season and the year of 2024 is drawing to a close. Most shows have either wrapped up this past week or are wrapping up this week. So, let’s talk about it! Did anything surprise you? disappoint you? exceed your expectations? Of course, more general topics are still welcome just like any week.

As always, remember to be mindful of spoilers. If you want to know more about how to handle spoilers in this community, check the guide here (also linked in the sidebar).

    I just realised there wasn’t a single discussion thread for “Sword Art Online Alternative: Gun Gale Online” - Season 2. Not anything exceptional but it’s a lot of fun if you like guns.

    spoiler

    also the twist in the last episode really has me excited for S3, maybe it might actually get some depths.

    Haven’t watched a lot of shows this season, but by far my favourite (excluding carry-overs) was “Orb: On the Movements of the Earth”. So glad it will continue seamlessly into the next season.

    What I didn’t quite get this season was the hype around “Dan Da Dan”. I thought it was decent, but I kind of had to push through it. Certainly wasn’t anticipating the new episodes like with Orb. Not sure I’ll continue S2.

    And last “It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?” - Season 5 is still on my will-definitly-watch list. Probably gonna wait for the season to finish and then binge it.

      Orb is fantastic. I am a couple episodes behind right now. I mentioned this last week, but because of how busy/tired/sick I have been recently, I have held off on watching it. The show is too good for me to half-ass watching it. That show is deserving of my full attention.

      I think Dan Da Dan has benefited tremendously from an otherwise pretty weak season of new shows. Sure, Re:Zero, Bleach, and Danmachi might have been great (I have heard, I don’t watch either), but those shows have the previous seasons as a barrier of entry that Dan Da Dan doesn’t.

      wasn’t a single discussion thread for “Sword Art Online Alternative: Gun Gale Online” - Season 2

      There was for the first few eps, but I guess it didn’t get enough interaction and got dropped by the bot as a result. I certainly dropped it. It was quite boring. There was little reason to care about anything that happened. I dropped it at the surprise mechanic.
