Hey everybody! A couple days ago, @[email protected] reached out to me with an idea. Why don't we try to set up some year-end awards for the communities we moderate? Well, a bit of back and forth, and today, I am glad to announce that we have opened nominations for the 2024 Lemmy Anime Awards. The nomination round will remain open until I post next week's general discussion thread (usually late Sunday/early Monday US time). Note that there are partner awards for the manga and light novel communities as well.

Like normal, feel free to also use this thread just like you would a normal discussion thread.

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).

This past week was going to be my attempt to catch up a bit on my backlog of shows. I was actually making progress until...well, all the awards stuff took up a ton of my anime-watching time. So, what I managed to make it through:

Dan Da Dan - This show's craziness continues to deliver. What other show can somehow tie together a mantis shrimp, crippling poverty, kappa, aliens, and milk into a coherent storyline.
Villainess in History - A lot of fun. Alicia is one of my favorite non-Dan Da Dan characters of the season. Episode 10 was an out of character down episode, but I am sure that we will get back to fun Villainess-y hijinx.
Loner Life Isekai - The dungeon crawl parts of these past few episodes have been painfully slow. Thankfully, we have made it past that going forward.
Appraisal Isekai - Overall, I have been happy with this. Yes, the warfare strategy doesn't make sense and the animation is pretty barebones at times, but the characters are really the important part of this show.
Negative Positive Angler - Episode 10 was incredible. It was what I was hoping all these happy slice of life episodes was leading up to. An incredible payoff that I expect will keep delivering through to the end of the season.

I have started catching up on some other shows, but am not current yet. Working on it!
