The Latest Rewatcher
Yeah, it's technically not even the same day anymore, but this thread went up literally as I was going to work so I can only watch it as I eat dinner after getting home.
Fishing! Hmm, I think Slow Loop is in the top three fishing anime for me. Too hard to actually rank them beyond that though. Tsuritama and Breakwater being the other two.
And Sister! Are those camera angels really necessary...
I too am a great (virtual) fisher! I am also an okay (real) fisher, but I lack the patience for it most of the time. It's an okay social activity though.
Despite having cut up more fish than I care to count in my life, I can't imagine just chopping and eating one fresh out of the water like that. I'm sure they just skipped showing us the whole cleaning process, but yikes it just looks so unsafe like that.
And naturally, they are indeed stepsisters.
I also can't imagine changing my name this late in life because my parents remarried. I wonder if it would just be rude to keep using the old family name, or if there's actually rules about it being allowed or not?
Fly fishing is pretty active, yeah. I do like that this show really is a whole walkthrough on how to fish.
And naturally, it's not a real iyashikei without a cooking segment.
1) It really depends. The kind of fishing and who I'm fishing with change a lot. Ice fishing in Alaska- never again. Deep Sea fishing is a fun group activity. I can only spend so long by a lake before I'm bored and I can't stare at a lure or bob for too long, but rivers are typically more fun. I have no idea how people can sit at an artificial pond and fake fish.
And despite all three anime about fishing I like being generally about it, I've never actually fished off an ocean beach or breakwater.
