I'm happy to see Kinnikuman on the preview guide. I feel like a lot of people are intimidated by this being a sequel to an old, mostly Japanese-only franchise, so I'm glad to see uninitiated reveiwers give it a fair shake. I hope this is an opportunity to grow the series western fanbase.
For part, I enjoyed the episode a lot, but I agree it was a little slow paced, especially compared to how crazy things usually get. And yeah, it makes sense that Geronimo would raise some eyebrows.

The Perfect Origin Arc, the first arc of the 2011 revival of the classic manga, which ran from volumes 38-60...is my favorite story arc in any Shonen manga I've ever read over the last 20+ years. I don't praise it lightly.
It's a rare example of an already classic series coming back better than it was originally. Stronger art, solid character moments, fixing issues with the prior run...that said, it probably won't hit AS hard without the foundation I had having read the original manga.
It should still show a lot of great moments.

As somebody who checked the manga the joke repeats itself in just next chapter and then again few times in next five, so send me the check please :> |
So, I just watched episodes 2 and 3 of No Longer Allowed and he only tried to kill himself once (and it was arguably not a joke). Was I lied to, or is the adaptation changing things?

I have heard horror histories of S. Korea's dystopian plastic surgery/beauty obsession... never thought somebody would make a manhwa about it, much less a comedy.

I've read the synopsis for Delicos nursery several times and everytime I forget what it's about, probably because the Proper Noun of the show being TRUMP hits me so hard I develop amnesia

I didn't pick up from the trailers that the kids in Delico's Nursery are actually the vampires' real children. I thought they were running an orphanage of sorts for kids of people they killed or something along that line. I'm so used to the notion that vampires don't have kids uh... the usual way so that threw me off a little.
Anyway, the animation appears limited but I will stay just for the pretty character designs and background art. Indeed, so far it seems the mystery is secondary to the child-rearing hijinks, and I'm up for that!
