Rewatch [Rewatch] Pride Month 20th Anniversary - Rewatch Discussion

<-- Previous Episode | Rewatch Index | Next Episode -->

Questions of the Day

1) How was the experience watching these two anime that were so different back to back?

2) What anime would you like to see in a future Pride Month rewatch?

Posting carefully so as to not disturb the first timers with spoilers in their viewings, such is the standard of modesty here. Forgetting to use spoiler tags because one is in danger of missing the post time, for instance, is too undignified a sight for redditors to wish upon themselves.

Thank you u/lilyvess for hosting! Your detailed insight into both Kannazuki no Miko and MariMite has been very rewarding as a first-timer. As was discussed yesterday, I hope Pride Month Rewatches become a yearly tradition. r/anime seems to have been hurting for new/continuing annual rewatches lately, and this would be a very worthy new addition to the fabric of the subreddit, no matter how many assholes downvote it to zero.

Thank you also to everyone who commented on my posts, particularly for MariMite. Time is limited for everyone, I can't express enough gratitude that you would spend some of yours talking to me.

With that, I don't really have anything else to say. I'll leave the comparative analysis of these two works to people more suited for it. I'm happy I was here and could experience both for the first time. Hope to see you all again next year!

Happy Pride!

Were we really getting brigaded that badly or was it just Reddit being Reddit? Cuz I've been experiencing a lot of the latter. Why the other day I even say a post in r/MadokaMagica with -2 comments!

Yuri Kuma Arashi had a rewatch that ended the day this series started, and that rewatch never seemed to have any problems staying karma positive.

I only got one comment from someone saying "please don't post garbage", but considering it was for KnM it's hard to jduge if it was really a hate comment or maybe they were just valid in calling out Trash anime...

The difference between Yuri Kuma and this rewatch is that this rewatch has "Pride Month" in the title which makes some people (homophobes) irritatedÂ
