Your Week in Anime (Week 666)

This is a general discussion thread for whatever you've been watching this last week (or recently, we really aren't picky) that's not currently airing. For specifically discussing currently airing shows, go to This Week in Anime.

Make sure to talk more about your own thoughts on the show than just describing the plot, and use spoiler tags where appropriate. If you disagree with what someone is saying, make a comment saying why instead of just downvoting.

This is a week-long discussion, so feel free to post or reply any time.

Hi. I've been lurking on this sub for a while, I don't think I've ever posted anything here (could be wrong though), but I like it. I'm not sure, though, what's the point of the sticky "Your Week In Anime" post. I mean, most of the new anime I'd get into would have to have been on for some episodes, we'll hear about it sooner or later if they're that good. I just don't see the point. It's not such a big deal, since, as you must be well aware, most users will generally just ignore the couple "green" sticky posts on top of the sub, and will look for posts talking about the anims they're actually into, or create them.

I'm just trying to say that this feels to me like a waste of time, effort, and space. Now, I'd be open to hear otherwise, cause I might be totally wrong, and maybe someone could explain to me how wrong I am, I'd be glad to hear that, really.

The point is for people to be able to talk about non airing anime they've been watching, but you are right in that most people don't bother posting here. I suppose it's more of a holdover from how things used to be in the subreddit. I don't mind continuing it though at least for the people that do want to post here. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Oh, OK, I had missed the point then, my bad, for some reason I thought it was about "latest releases, newest anime you've just discovered!". Having a thread that would be more like "this week, I've rebinged Cowboy Bebop, Serial Experiments Lain, and Evangelion", now that, I'd totally be down for it! Is it more like this? If it is, my apologies for not understanding the point of this sticky!

Yep, as the description in the post says, this is meant for non airing anime.
