Hi everybody! It is time once again for a weekly general thread! This is the place for all your anime-related thoughts that you don't want to make a whole post about. Some thought-provoking examples may include:

Is it just me or did Shield Hero peak during the Spirit Turtle arc?
Why can't all the other streaming services have players as nice as HiDive?
I am loving Spy X Family, would Domestic Girlfriend be another good, family-centered show to follow up with?

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 watched Beast Tamer and it was bad. As average and standard formula as it gets. I feel sorry for the visual artists, animators, and voice actors who did a fine job.

Standard harem tropes, predictable but at the same time inconsistent characters, visual/spacial inconsistencies, predictable standard story and it's progression.

I've rated anime I stopped watching higher than this one which I finished watching. I wonder what the difference is.

Maybe this one at least has action, progression, fantasy world - so my preferences in that regard? Or just mood? I'm not sure.

Okay-ish as something to put up during a meal and not much else, there is a VA I like so there's that.

I am terrible at dropping shows even when they are terrible. I can't even begin to list the number of horribly generic shows that I started, almost immediately hated, but watched through the end of the season. I am the same way with manga as well. I usually can't stop reading until I get to the end of an arc.
