Damn, the damage Fran took in that fight was brutal. I know season 1 had some stuff like her hands getting chopped off, but that was more a one-time hit rather than constant brutal damage spread over a fight. Love that they actually show damage being taken instead of censoring it as well.

Still not entirely sure where the boy will come back into it, seeing as his two friends have been defeated. Was almost expecting him to come back to witness the defeat of the skeleton and retake control of his body or something like that.

    With the servers shutting down and an offline PvE mode taking its place both lag and cheaters shouldn't be part of the equation any longer, so if those are the main issues with the game and the overall game is well liked, then I guess I'll check out some videos to see what the gameplay is like.

    I've got way too many different anime that I started watching but just didn't bother keeping up with every week over the past few seasons, so I'm trying to be a bit more selective and not pick as much this season. Don't really see too much new stuff that stands out though, maybe one or two, so I might end up only finishing the sequels that are airing. The main sequels being:

    Aoashi S2 - Ended up liking the first season a lot more than expected, recently read the manga, and while there were later parts that felt like they dragged on a bit too much, I very much liked this one, S1 was definitely my pick for football anime of the year over Blue Lock, which really didn't work for me when I first went into that.

    Ao no Hako S2 - I've been keeping up with the manga since before S1 of the anime, so this one instantly went on my list as soon as it was announced. Bit curious about the studio that's listed on it though, I've never been one to really pay attention to the studio that worked on an anime (though I've learned with GoHands), but I'm not sure what expectations to have for "Electric Circus" who doesn't have any other anime listed on Anilist.

    Koori no Jouheki S2 - Went into the first season blind, having considered reading the manga after I finished reading Seihantai na Kimi to Boku by the same author a few years ago, though I never got to it as it doesn't have an official English release. Very different from Polar Opposites, but they're both good in their own way.

    Tensei Shitara Ken Deshita S2 - This is one of those "I guess I'll give this a shot" ones that turned out to be much better that expected, even ended up buying some of the novels after finishing the first season, so looking forward to seeing more of Sword Dad and Fran.

    There are a few more sequels I'm watching as well, but not anything that really stands out that I'm guaranteed not to drop.

    Yeah, but that's not what I was talking about. Instead of looking at it and saying "no further investigation" because there was nothing to it, they decided to go the "investigated after the race" route, which is what I'm complaining about. It's not this specific instance, but every instance of this happening while the driver(s) in question is still in the race that's the problem.

    Well, the appeal is basically irrelevant to my complaint, though I can understand how you would think I was including that in my comment by what the main post is about. My actual point was that they just decided not to look at the incident during the race at all while the driver in question was still in the race, and could've ended up with a result altering penalty hours after the race was done.

    Can I just say that the fact I didn't know whether it would be a penalty or not before the end of the race is absolutely horrible. Would it be so hard to only allow investigations after the race if it won't lead to time penalties (so team fines or other things that do not affect the race) or if no driver(s) involved in an incident are still in the race?

    Appreciate your work. I used to have a Crunchyroll and Hidive subscription before Hidive left and Crunchyroll used noticeably terrible and unchecked MTL subs (specifically The Yuzuki Family's Four Sons, that was a complete mess. "Brother Falcon" still lives more in my head than the name of the series itself, so I searched "Crunchyroll Brother Falcon" to find the series name). Crunchyroll also constantly just kept missing their own release times, and there were multiple occasions before I ended my subscription where they just didn't release the English subs as well, for example only having Spanish subs just after release. It's just been so much better doing it this way.
