Hey everybody! Hope that the new anime season is treating you well. To help you along, here is a new general thread for you to share your opinions, thoughts, recommendations, or ask questions.

Is anyone else on the “0 comments” watch?
A couple of shows are so bad, that I hope they get 0 comments that week so rikka can drop their next episode discussion thread.
Other shows, that I’m rooting for, and I haven’t had a chance to watch yet, I’m going “C’mon, someone make a comment!”
I have been keeping a close eye on it to make sure that shows are getting disabled correctly if nobody has commented on the previous episode. I personally feel like the volume of posts has been a little high here in the beginning of the season, but that is partially being made worse by the very slow news cycle following Anime Japan 2024. Something I have the option of doing is enabling rikka to post poster art as an image for the discussion threads (I can swap it out to a screenshot following the same procedure as currently). It would at least add some visual variation to the wall of discussion posts. I might try enabling that for a day or two and see if there is any feedback.
My time to watch has been limited by an intense barrage of work lately, so I’m strategically altering my watching schedule to newest shows first, so the front page doesn’t look so barren.
