the fact that the bucchigiri?! op and ed are so deliberately misleading delights me to no end and also makes me think of the merman in my bathtub anime (orenchi no furo jijou, which everyone should watch because it is WONDERFUL and only 13 episodes with the episodes being just 4 minutes each)
like with this one as well. if you only watch the op
it will absolutely in no way prepare you for what the show is like lmao
"Русал в моей ванной"/"Orenchi no Furo Jijou" (13 эпизодов)
Да, я совсем обленилась и за апрель посмотрела только один аниме тайтл, но так бывает, что уж тут под��лать.
Оказалось, что серии тут всего по 5 минут, но при такой красивой рисовке хотелось бы полноценный хронометраж. Конечно же фансервис присутствовал и ржачные моменты (куда без них?), а ещё там обалденный опенинг 😍 В манге 8 томов, а в аниме выборочно попали главы из первых трёх. Обидно конечно, такого аниме можно было на два сезона запилить. Очень годно и миленько, и аниме и манга про русала, его бойфренда и их друзей запало мне в самое кокоро.
here are some other fandoms i'm in, and i haven't really talked about them.
Some pieces of media haven't been mentioned here, so that's why I'm going to do it right now.
Ratboy Genius
Say all you want about this series. We get that many of you think it's from "the weird part of YouTube", but I think it's strangely adorable in a way. The character concepts are really zany, the plots are cool, and the musical numbers are pretty silly! Ratboy Genius might look souless at first, but you'll see how wonderful it is if you get into it.
Merman in My Tub
This series is actually pretty neat, and no, it's not a BL. The characters are just friends, okay? I've watched the anime, and I've read one book of the manga, and I have to say it's also pretty silly. My favorite characters are Agari the shy shark and Echizen the mean ol' crab. I've always wanted to see an anime or manga where it's about a bunch of monster boys hanging out, so this is the right thing for me!
Mega Man
Ah yes. The Blue Bomber himself. I've known a lot about the classic series, but I love the other incarnations of Mega Man just the same. I love cool robot stuff, so of course would like Mega Man, right? Also, I tried to beat the original Mega Man games one time, but I kept on dying and dying. Poor me.
Yo-Kai Watch
No, it's not a Pokemon clone. Yo-Kai watch is amazing because I think the monster designs can get real imaginative sometimes! I hate to admit it, but I'm kind of a "genwunner" when it comes to this series; I'm not particularly fond of Shadowside or Academy Y, but I do like how Shadowside expands the lore. In my opinion, Yo-Kai watch is more entertaining than Pokemon, and maybe I should play one of its games someday!
Anything Osamu Sato related
LSD Dream Emulator, Eastern Mind, Roly Polys, YOU NAME IT! The works of Osamu Sato are psychedelic and mesmerizing, and I've even listened to a lot of his albums back then.
you're the only anime blog that i follow that has posted about merman bathtub anime. bless you
WHAT A SHAME
EVERYONE SHOULD WATCH ORENCHI NO FURO JIJOU
^^^ DO IT FOR HIM ^^^
i guess it's a bit on the older side now (just checked and 2014?! ten years......) but since it's so short i still rewatch it regularly as a fun pick me up, and imo it holds up really well even after all this time. it's pretty goofy, sure, but such a delight to me
so yeah highly recommend to anyone who's got an hour to spare and wants to enjoy a gay little romp with adorable merman boyfriend* shenanigans and a staaacked seiyuu cast
(it really does just take an hour because again there are 13 episodes but the episodes are only 4 minutes each)
*full disclosure it is not Literally Actually bl but it's pretty much as close as you can get lol
