I hope not. I’m pretty sure me and my coworkers would be at each others’ throats if it were not for some form of typed JS holding our Frankenstein codebase together.

Neat. I guess I’ll take me and my degenerate thoughts to the instance that shall not be named then :P

I’m not sure what’s even left for me on lemmy.ml. lemmy.world is already my home instance with nearly everything I would ever want. Only thing I don’t really want to leave behind is /c/honkaistarrail but it’s mildly dead anyways…

I enjoyed Nisekoi and would recommend. Found it entertaining to watch (although I’m also one of those people that gets unreasonably loud and excited when watching rom-coms so ymmv).

It is quite episodic and follows a formula of getting MC interacting with a chosen girl of the week in a one-off scenario for each story. This cycle kinda repeats itself forever without moving the plot forward much or developing MC’s relationship with any of the girls in any meaningful ways. You do occasionally see the main plot advance every once in a while which is centered around MC trying to find a promised girl whom he met in his childhood but those are few and far between.

The anime never finished adapting the manga so you’ll have to read to finish it. It was animated by Shaft so quality is high and it has a bit of that Shaft surrealism in it (also Onodera being voiced by Kana Hanazawa was perfect). Personally, I found S1 to be a good watch but felt something in S2’s pacing was really off for some reason.

As for the manga, it does drag on due to its episodic nature and molasses rate of storytelling. I felt at some point characters were literally being added to the harem simply as filler material to pad out the story. The ending also felt kinda hamfisted and left half the fanbase very salty.

Overall I would say watch S1 and see how you like it (there’s a lot more of it if you do)
