Just how disappointed/disgusted were you?

    Threads like this make me severely want to produce an anime.
    I will have to settle for visual novels though

    An anime version of one of your beloved Taiwanese dramas?

    “Bromance”?!

    Oh wait, I’m sure someone did an anime of that...:ROFLMAO:

    “Fabulous Boys”?

    Oh wait, there are a bunch of transvestite band anime...

    “Moon River”?

    Despite the title that makes me think of schoolboys dropping trousers as riverboats pass by, :ROFLMAO: it’s apparently a version of “Boys over Flowers “.:D

    I would totally take an anime version of bromance, specifically. But didn't they eff up the ending on that? I thought it was technically supposed to be longer and something happened so they had to cut it short and rush the last episode or two?

    I am a big fan of Megan Lai but bromance is not my cup of tea lol. I do not watch as many Taiwanese dramas as one would think, usually because of the lack of subtitles or crappy plot.
    The ones I like usually get canceled eg Iron Ladies

    I mostly watch them for the music

    I avoid rich man, poor woman stories which means I dont watch 99.9 % of shows haha

    Funny that you mentioned Taiwanese drama, I was searching for Taiwanese caption so I can translate into English haha

    I am actually watching this:
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two_Outs_in_the_Ninth_Inning
    More like rewatching, I have been watching it every year since 2015 lol
    I just caught your comment on Boys Over Flowers, I was on the viki team for the low budget US Adaptation and gave up lol
    I never watched any of the Japanese versions but watched the Korean version years ago and it was forgettable.
    I recommend City Hunter

    It's super hilarious, mild love triangle, gaming, tsundere ml, and a dash of angst

    I can recommend a Korean yuri.
    https://mydramalist.com/16152-lily-fever

    Its about 5 minutes per episode I think. It's been a while since I saw. Didn't know it was Yuri.
    Since it's not Japanese, no nudity

    After 3 eps, I still enjoy it. I am blessed with no taste.:ROFLMAO:

    (I’m assuming you’re talking about Arifureta.)

    Thankfully, a lot of people in Japan have no tastes...I have hopes for season 2.:D:rolleyes::ROFLMAO:

    Hydra looked crappy...thread title changed.

    Definitely do not recommend if you have not read the book. Not disappointed, just not blown away. It’s ok. Worth it if you’re a fan.:(

    The Arifureta anime and novel aren't necessarily bad but I'm really disappointed in the production value, specifically in the fight with the Hydra-like beast. Like seriously it was so poorly done that it was painful to watch.
