Have you seen Death Note (not the live action version)? It's more mental cat-and-mouse than action but it's very well written.

Sorry for the late reply. If that's the case then watch the 3 movies in sub
The original is good too but I have seen both and both are the same but the movie added a little more content and better animation overall.
Have you checked it out yet?
CGI made my eyes go all Ebola. I 100% avoid but new watcher might think it's ok I guess. Read the Manga instead. Berserk Manga is probably the best Manga of all time so it's worth reading fro start to finish and the Manga is still in going

I enjoyed season 1. Possibly because I'm well over 30 and liked the theme of a grown-up guild master who stayed online to say goodbye to something that was important to him, then set out to establish his guild in the new world to honor his friends and possibly reconnect with any of them who had also been sent to the world. It's also a guild of nonhumans, who aren't that fond of humans and sometimes deal with them ruthlessly.
That made the wish fulfillment Marty Stu overpowered main character more interesting to me than the usual 15 year old bland high schooler in similar series.
Season 2 is a mess because the MC only appears for a few minutes and now is acting like a 15-year-old, and the focused strategy of establishing the guild and its holding is replaced by semi-random acts that don't fit together well told in a set of side stories. What set season 1 apart from the rest of the "sent to another world" stories is mostly gone.

I'm guessing the writer had one good novel's worth of material, then needed to continue on and meet deadlines. Season 2 feels like a bunch of filler and scraps of world-building notes thrown together to keep the publisher happy while they try to figure out how to continue the main story.
It's the sort of material that Sharon Lee and Steve Miller release as chapbooks and then short story collections in between their "real" Liaden novels. That's fine if you're a 500-episode show, not a great idea if you only have 12.

What are you guys looking forward to for this next season? Looks like the new episodes will be starting in one to two weeks (depending on the show). I know we've got a few mainstays such as the next season of Boku no Hero Academia and the second cour of Shokugeki no Soma's third season. We'll also be seeing the anime treatment of Persona 5 similar to what we saw with previous Persona entries.
I'm still woefully behind this season when it comes to anime (the only one that I watch regularly is Darling in the FRANXX), so I hope to catch some of the good stuff.

3 good (light) novels then
. I don't read LNs so I don't know how they compare length-wise to Western SF and fantasy novels.If you've read them, do 7-on shift back to being more about the Overlord (Ains / Momon) and less about lizards and princesses?

I'll make my biennial appearance here and say that I'm heavy into Black Butler. I had watched s01 years ago and loved it but I forgot most of the plot. So I binged S02 and was a bit lost. Going to rewatch all 24 episodes of S01 and then do S03.
I'm still not really clear on how Ciel
. I guess I get the idea that he was possessed but you'd think that a contract would have to have consent by the consciousness affected by the deal not some body jacker.

became a demon
