They run into Saber in this current show I'm watching, and Rin doesn't even recognize her. Don't really know what is up with that?

Into the Loliverse is over a decade old and far too cringe inducing for anyone but the most hardcore weebs or Fate stans so you really don't need spoiler tags. Also even with it being a weird spinoff of an IP already prone to some seriously nonsensical shit how could you possibly make it three seasons in and not realize it's an alternate universe? That's not the same Rin as any of the three original Fate routes and the Saber they fight is such a badly degraded copy that she's barely even a shadow of a shadow of the actual Artoria Pendragon.

As cringe inducing as Prisma Illya is I'd argue it's worth it just for Oath Under Snow, which is Miyu's origin story and arguably the best piece of Fate media ever created. The only thing that compares is the third Heaven's Feel movie. Oath Under Snow has a far better story but the animation in Spring Song is some of Ufotable's absolute best and if you've ever watched Demon Slayer you'd know how immense that praise truly is.

Nice yea we plan on watching all of the Illya stuff. Really this all started because I met a lady with a really nice Illya avatar in vrchat and ever since then I was curious about the show.

I think I had seen Kuro in fan art. She seems really popular.

got a hankering for some anime scifi fantasy Help me not watch Blue Gender or Zone of the Enders OVA & mini series again - anything sci fi fantasy that’s a movie or mini-series recommended? I cant do 8 seasons and 34 episodes each…

Cowboy bebop ofc. Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann too. Inuyashiki is top tier I recommend all the time, though its a mixed modern/sci fi, but its only 11 episodes long. Space dandy is fun if your looking for something more lighthearted fun. Gurren lagann has a movie if a season sounds like too much of a slog.

86 - it has some good action, not a lot, but a pretty straightforward storyline. I think there's just one longish season that pretty much wrapped up an arc. No clue if there more to come. Kinda a dark theme.

I'm pretty sure the LN's it was adapted from have more content available should they want to continue it. The anime did wrap up in a good spot though.

Real quick suggestion, Made in Abyss. Single season. It'll hit you right in the feels.
Earlier this year, Dragon Raja, Zom 100 & Kaiju No. 8
Also Hai to Gensou no Grimgar & Chainsaw Man. All of these are more Scifi than fantasy. In fact, I don't think you'll see a single Elf or Dwarf.

Special mention for No Game No Life (that one has elves among other things, but it's still scifi. So I'm a Spider, So What. Undead Adventurer...

And everything listed so far is a single season long, so 12-24 episodes.

Almost all anime starts off as a novel. The creation of Manga & Anime by the publisher helps generate profits for the publishing house in the form of additional books sold and to a wider audience.

I know the manga got cancelled. The LN has 13 volumes, so they could probably do a few more seasons if they want.

It's possible. The manga might have been canceled due to poor sales. Who knows if the company is willing to then invest a few hundred thousand to make a second season of the anime.

Wellllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll. It is starting to go rapidly downhill as we approach the end.

How does one go downhill when you're at the bottom of a valley?

Anyway hurry up and watch Oath Under Snow. You can also watch Nameless Girl if you want to be left with a deeply unsatisfying cliffhanger.

It wasn't too bad at first. The slice of life stuff is funny. The poor brother being surrounded by girls, beach fun, that tatsuun girl bein a brat. The super strong church lady being broke and homeless and working 10 jobs :emoji_laughing:

I've been sick so I've missed alot of anime days so we are going slow. Also my net connection has been so awful that the battle scenes look like a blurry smear. Like watching an overwatch teamfight.

I'm more into delicious in dungeon. The part we are at has the most cozy end credits song. I looked for it on youtube music but I donut understanda the moon letters.

Aside from Illya vs Saber Alter and Oath Under Snow the fights in Kaleid Liner are nothing special. Illya vs Saber Alter is among the best fight choreography in all of Fate, doesn't compare to Ufotable's animation or the absurd spectacle of Babylonia (I shit you not at one point a servant jumps into orbit and uses a mass extinction event noble phantasm) but Kaleid Liner is on a much lower power-scale than even the main line of Stay Night much less the insanity of Grand Order.
