    Watched 11 out of 13 and those are all great shows. ‘TRIGUN’ is in my PTW list, but I haven’t seen the original yet. Maybe I will watch og first and the remake later. Didn’t expect ‘100 Girlfriends’ be mentioned in the ‘2023 Best Anime’ list. Adding this to my PTW list.

    Really love ‘Skip and Loafer’ being in the list. The show is really under-watched. As Gigguk mentioned in his video, the dancing scene in OP is really cute and the music is also fun to listen. Highly recommend if you are searching for a SoL anime.

    [Skip and Loafer minor spoilers]

    The reason why I got hooked to this anime is mainly because of those moments like watermelon moment mentioned in the video and this running to school in Ep1 moment plus characters interaction that don’t feel like typical school anime.

      100GF, being a parody, isn’t going to land with everybody. I think, somebody like Gigguk, that has watched way more anime than just about anybody (since it is essentially his job) is more likely to appreciate a good parody than a more casual watcher. The more familiar you are with the subject being parodied, the more the parody’s humor lands.

      That being said, I enjoyed the 100GF anime, but I think I actually preferred it in manga form more. I felt like they turned the fan service dial to 11 in the anime (or maybe just when it was in motion, it had a bigger impact). I get that is part of the joke, but I just found it distracting from the rest of the show sometimes.

        I love good parody anime, so I think this will be my cup of tea. Speaking of parody, I just remember I have to finish Gintama.
