 Hey everybody, welcome to another exciting episode, another edition of A Week in Geekdom here on YouTube. This was supposed to be a live stream, but you know, technical issues and then some other stuff. And then I wanted to do it on a Monday and I forgot that I was doing Omnibro's live, so I couldn't live stream. So instead you're getting the recorded version, apologies about that. But regardless, we're here to talk about some anime because I like anime, I've watched a ton of series and I wanted to do sort of my guide, my personal guide of the 2019 summer anime season. I did one, well not technically at the start, but I did one for spring. There will be a part two because a lot of the shows that I talked about ended or are in the process of ending as of this video. So once a good chunk of them end, I will do my review on all those shows. Just quick bits of info on all those series about the anime and all that stuff, whether I liked it or disliked it and such. But yeah, the summer 2019 season is almost here in a couple more days. It's going to be pretty awesome. If you want to keep track of what shows are coming out, I do suggest the live chart and I put a link in the description where you can keep track of that. They tell you where you can stream it, what series is about and when the next episode is airing because each one has a cool little time frame, time clock, whatever, it has a clock and it tells you when the next episode is due. So yeah, summer 2019 and if I'm not looking, it's because I'm reading off my computer here. UFO table's adaptation of Demon Slayer is hitting on all cylinders. It is fantastic. It is wonderful. It is really friggin amazing. The usage of CGI on that thing or CG is really well done. It's placed in the right areas and the characters are awesome. I haven't read, I am in the process of acquiring some of the books so I can read it. But for the most part, from what I've heard of other people talking about it, it is a pretty faithful adaptation and the characters are pretty damn well. I know some people aren't too fond of the series, but they do like or too fond of the manga, I should say, but they do like the anime and the things it does. So yeah, Demon Slayer by all means is the winner for the spring season and it continues to be a killer show for the summer. So I do recommend it. Alright, next up, Dungeon, look, they're in Japanese. I'm not gonna bother with that. Is it wrong to pick up girls at a dungeon season two? Here's what I wanted to read. It's the new season following Belle and Hestia on a new adventure beginning the events covered in the sixth light novel volume. This that series for me was middle of the road. I didn't like it nor did I hate it. There are better stuff out there for me for my taste. I didn't think it was all that great. But still, if you like it, more power to you and there's a new season to enjoy. I will probably check it out because yeah there were parts, especially the art of the first season that I really dug. It was just an okay series, but still I'll probably keep up with it and see what happens in season two. Arifurata Shokugyu de Sekaisakyo, see, that's why I don't read the Japanese because I don't know how to pronounce things. The title on this one is Arifurata from Commonplace to World Strongest. That one is set to start brand new. It's about a 17 year old Hajime Nagumo, an average everyday otaku, however his simple life of pulling all-nighters and sleeping in school is set him turned upside down when he, among the rest of his world, is another isekai, fantastic. I have nothing against isekai, I've loved the genre, some of my favorite anime of recent memory are isekai, but yeah it comes to a point where you're just repeating yourself time and time again. However in this one apparently the whole class gets transported which is fine if you're going to go to another dimension, another world. It would suck if you'd be there by yourself, it would be pretty cool if you had your friends with you, I guess, I don't know, what do you guys think? So I don't know nothing about that, but I'll probably check it out and do some first impressions, so we'll see. Dr. Stone from TMS Entertainment is some good stuff man, I love the manga, I reviewed the first volume on my channel and it's great, basically the world has suffered a calamity when everybody's turned to stone and then many many years later the main protagonist and everybody else they start awakening and they start the resurgence I guess of the human species and kick starting everything back up and science plays a huge part of the process. It's really cool, it's pretty unique and the designs, the character work that is going in here, drawing, you know taking inspiration from the original manga from Boichi, really good stuff, I cannot recommend it enough, Dr. Stone is a blast. Alright, next one, here we go, Isekai Cheat Magician, basically Nishimura Taichi and his friend Rin are transported into a fantasy world while in their previous world Taichi is a normal person who just has higher than average reflexes both he and Rin gain high levels of physical and magical ability and begin their new life as magicians. I mean by the looks of it it just screams SAO rip off a whole bunch of magicians hopefully it's good and hopefully if you're interested and you watch it it's great and you like it so more power to you, I don't know if I'll watch it, I probably will, who am I kidding? Oh yeah, David Production is doing Fire Force, I'd love it, I also did a review on the first volume if you want to check it out, Fire Force is awesome, really unique anime about fire or manga, about firefighters fighting instantaneous human combustion and there's demons involved and a lot of cool stuff and yeah it's pretty unique and David Production outdid themselves in my opinion from what we've seen of the previews it looks amazing and the characters look really awesome like they literally stepped out of the manga and into your TV screen, I think it's going to look stunning. Next up, oh, Vinland Saga from Witt Studio, okay first of all Witt Studio can do no wrong they kill it with Attack on Titan and Vinland Saga all my buddies, my friends that are into anime and manga mostly manga they always recommend certain type of books or certain books and one of them is always Vinland Saga and how great it is it is one of the best manga ever in everybody's list I haven't personally read it because I was going to but they announced the anime so now I'm like you know I'm more of an anime guy I like watching the shows I don't collect as much manga as I do graphic novels and stuff so I will be checking out the adaptation instead but again Witt Studio you're going to get top-notch quality with the production design and the musicality and just everything about that thing is going to be superb basically it's a Viking manga with revenge and action and intrigue and all that fun stuff so yeah Vinland Saga is going to be the hit that everybody's going to be talking about hopefully yeah it's a little bit weird from JC staff let me pull up the name do you love your mom and her two hit multi-target attacks I mean God bless them for making up all these weird titles Jesus basically Masato thought he was part of a random survey but when he gets involved in a secret government scheme he winds up trapped in the game world even more surprising his mother's there too so basically it's another isekai but instead the main character gets thrown into this world with his mom and hopefully it's funny I want to laugh hopefully it's funny and not too weird or a fan service because it can lend itself to that area of the internet if you know what I mean but yeah I really do hope it's funny because the title and the premise is just really freaking absurd in my opinion Hensaki are you willing to fall in love with a pervert as long as she's a cutie sure okay Takagi-san the master of teasing too I haven't watched the first one so I can't really comment on it but I do know it has it has a following so it should be pretty interesting to see how season 2 fares Osama retry I don't know what this is about but it is an action adventure series and I think I did see a teaser for it Akira is a regular guy who works at a company that manages an online game he often plays the game as his character Dark Lord but one day when he logs on this is another isekai he is whisked into a game's fantasy world as his character there he meets a one le- oh yeah yeah I've seen this there he meets a one legged girl and begins his adventures alongside her but as he is a powerful Dark Lord various nations and holy maidens journey to defeat him and he stirs up trouble everywhere he goes that actually doesn't sound too bad aside from the whole other world stuff I kind of want to check that out a certain scientific accelerator that's in the index and railgun universe so it's season it would be the third series so if you haven't watched the other ones don't go in blind because you're going to be lost you got to watch that other stuff first but it's jayce staff I'm a huge fan of them and I can't wait I love the railgun in an index universe oh this is a popular I think it was a light novel first and then it became a manga or anime if it's for my daughter I'd even defeat a demon lord yeah Dale is a cool composed and highly skilled adventurer who's made quite a name for himself despite his youth one day on a job deep in the forest he comes across a little devil girl who's almost wasted away unable to just leave her to die Dale takes her home and becomes her adoptive father devil or not Latina is Latina okay Latina is beyond adorable and the adventurer soon finds himself a head over heels with being a parent but why was she out in the forest to begin with why does she carry the mark of a criminal dun dun dun yeah I do know I've seen some forums and stuff and people are excited about that one too this next one has the potential to be a borderline lane trashy to hold some fun and in between is ecchi goodness it is how heavy are the dumbbells you lift look I'll be honest with you I know it's fan service because it's about girls and they're trying to get fit and it can go into the if it can go into the wholesome territory and motivate viewers to do exercise exercises and get fit and stay healthy that's a win right there regardless of the ecchi regardless of the fan service if it can do that I'm all on board and I approve of that so I'm very interested in finding out if they do that or if it's just going to be a comedy series and nothing to write home about like they say magical senpai it's one of those weird kind of lewd-ish series about a girl that does magic but she's terrible at it she has a failure rate of 100% so it's more comedy based and who doesn't love a good comedy right lord el meloy the second's case files if you're a fan of the fate series specifically fate zero and I don't know if it links up but unlimited blade works then go ahead and check that series out watch those series first and then come back to this one ones within akatsuki idide is a popular live streamer for the free to play game the ones within genome but that what was once fantasy quickly becomes his and seven others reality when they're transported to the game world against their will view count matters then ever before as millions watch them try to complete okay so basically it's an isekai mixed with twitch they get sucked into another world and people are watching them survive okay by the way don't take if I'm mocking a premise don't get upset it might be good I'm just going off the descriptions I don't know yet as of this video are you lost? this actually looks pretty interesting it's survivors on a deserted island something and they're going to do everything imaginable to survive I guess I think it has a bit of comedy in it I'm not too sure you might have to correct me on that one astral lost in space I think I saw a teaser of this and it looked pretty interesting years 2061 space travel is now possible and commercially viable and the students of cared high school embark on their camp something happens and light sphere warps its 9 members into outer space stranding them 5000 12 light years away from their home planet yeah I'm definitely going to see this darkness of space so that all of them can survive yeah I'm on board if it's a survival story and especially if it's in space I'm going to check it out beam three monsters, beam who looks like a gangster beedow who looks like a boy and beeda a witch act as agents of justice hoping that they will be allowed to become human okay cool cop craft 15 years ago an unknown hyperspace gate opened over the pacific beyond this gate lies retosemani a strange alternate world where fairies and demon lives this looks very interesting too I might check this out as well to the abandoned sacred beast it is a pretty recent famous manga that a lot of people here on youtube are reviewing and it's sort of like an alternate version of the civil war here in America but instead like they capture monsters and they use monsters to fight or something like that something about what is it incarnates because of economical disputes the country split north and south creating the northern union of patria and this other confederation of patria and they waged a long civil war it's yeah it looks pretty interesting I know a lot of people are going to be checking that out as well oh maidens in your savage season that's a badass title I don't know what this is but it's about the girls in a high school literature club do a little icebreaker to get to know each other answering the question what's one thing you want to do before you die one of the girls blurts out sex am I going to get demonetized by reading this little do they know the world went unleashed by that word pushes each of these girls with different backgrounds and personalities onto their own clumsy funny painful and emotional paths towards adulthood if it's well written and funny I might check it out but otherwise it's probably going to be a skip I don't know baseball days of high school girl one day out of boredom Tanaka decides to give her classmate nicknames based on their quirks this is my hero academia thing I'm kidding I know it's not her friend Sakuichi became Ota for her nerdy interest and her other friend Saginomiya Saginomiya became a robo because of her expressionless personality uh yeah it's another comedy bit and uh yeah yeah that's that's sort of an overview again I put the link in the description where you can check out the rest of the anime that are premiering but out of all of that out of those series the top five I recommend watching for summer 2019 Demon Slayer if it counts although it premiered earlier but it's a must watch in my opinion Demon Slayer but if we're going to exclude that and just brand new series then Dr. Stone Fire Force Vinland Saga Dumbbell because I want to laugh and get motivated to get fit hopefully it does that if not then boo arms to prong the tag so those are my picks for what I think are going to be like the hits or what I suggest people watch for the summer 2019 anime season I don't know they could all suck or they could all be great regardless watch the series look forward to my conclusion for the spring season and
