Yea, the superpowers are great too!
I was being serious. It's what's called "serious humor" - it plays itself straight and doesn't wink at the viewer, but it's too over-the-top to be an actual drama.

If not on a parodical level, that would make it a melodrama, which are basically cheaper dramas with sensationalism instead of subtle character development.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH THIS
Prison School takes innuendo to a whole another level I haven't laughed so much from anything in ages, the author is pure snowing genius.
Naruto Shippuden releases next week its 500th and final episode. After 10 long years, this it how it ends. But is it really over? Boruto starts in April...

Kuzu no Honkai concluded with its 12th episode, bringing to a close one of the best school romance / drama anime I have ever seen. I enjoyed it thoroughly and it makes me sad that it ended so soon.
Oh well, time for all the spring animes! A lot of good action this season! Shingeki no Kyojin, Boku no Hero Academia, Berserk? Count me in!

Watched voices of a distant star, a story about two high school students separated when the girl is enlisted in the galactic army to help in the war against an alien attack. They can only communicate via cellphone messages which take more and more time to arrive as the war takes her farther away from earth. It's a lovely short film, only 25 mins long.
Then I watched garden of words. I could tell you what it's about but it's better to just watch the trailer. Here is an accurate summary I found:
Garden of Words is an astounding visual achievement first and foremost, to the point where it can sometimes overshadow the story and characters. However, the simplicity of the story proves to complement the atmosphere and showcases Shinkai’s ability as a visual director to convey sweet and genuinely heartfelt sentiment with his characters. Therefore, Garden of Words proves to be a beautifully crafted and endearing film.

Where the hell have you been man? I messaged you, called you, searched for you at Torredemarfil, even baited you with StarCraft 2. Nothing. And now you're telling me that all this time you've been reading and that spider memes got you out in the open?
Okay buddy, okay.

Someone's butthurt about his stalking ways being ineffective ^^ Hey stormy, how about you find a cozy place in the vw to chat?
EDIT:
Following a very old recommendation from Joonas I finally watched genocyber. A violent, depressing and unsettling cyberpunk with interesting moral undercurrents despite certain plot holes and unexplained incidents. It's just 5 episodes but do not watch unless you are absolutely sure you can take the gore. Worse than elfen lied and on par with berserk manga level of gore.
So.. probably for stevie ^^ Happy nightmares!

*SPOILERS*
Berserk must have gotten you completely desensitized to violence and gore Otherwise impressive is not how I would describe it, more like omgwtf. I found the post timeskip deification interesting, considering it had been 4 centuries and that citizens had been divided into upper and lower class with questionable levels of education. Of course they would look up to some deity that could challenge their oppressors. Also the mayor's speech with people lying butchered underground, that was a great scene.

It's less about being desensitized and more about never buying into that sort of cheap thrill to begin with. And you can't seriously compare Genocyber with Berserk, they're light years apart. This is what I wrote back in the day and I can still stand by it.
Stevie said: Anyway, just finished Genocyber, a recommendation from you-know-who which I managed to entertain until the very end. But man, did I have to pull through it... This is probably the very definition of an old-school anime aging VERY poorly, but one that left a sufficient impression on the young minds at the time who still remember it kindly up to this day. I've never seen such a veritable cluster**** before, and not in the good sense. Wouldn't recommend it.
