A new Monday means it is a new general discussion thread. We are at or near the halfway point of the season for most of the winter shows. I plan on dedicating next week’s thread to a midterm report of sorts, so look forward to it! In the meantime, please use this thread to talk about what you have watched recently, any questions you might have, recommendations, or whatever else strikes your fancy. Like usual, a couple examples:
- Are there any shows with more suggestive eyecatches than Bravern?
- Is Metallic Rouge some elaborate experiment to see how long an audience will watch pretty nonsense?
- Is Kensuke from Dungeon Meshi basically a Pokemon that Laios uses to fight?

Yeah, I think it is time. There is a bit of history I could go into about episode discussion threads, but I don’t really have a lot of time today. However, that community was initially separated from the main community because there just wasn’t enough activity in /c/anime to justify making all those posts here as they would drown out anything else. I think that a couple things have made that problem a lot less worrisome:
I am still figuring out exactly what the model will look like going forward, but I think it is clear from the experiment this season that this community can bear the volume of discussion threads now.
That makes sense to me, a hybrid of /c/anime and series-specific /c/s depending on popularity. That makes more sense than /c/episode_discussion since that’s categorized on the type of content, rather than categorized by a community of people interested in it. So I agree with the future vision. Appreciate you taking the time to explain!
