Beginner Anime Club // Now Watching: ダンジョン飯

Thank you for the vocab sheet and the subtitles !
Maybe I’ll add a file with the subtitles without furigana.

Personnally, I don’t think I’ll use the vocab sheet while watching the anime because it will be a hassle to skip between the excel file and the anime, and it might spoil my fun. I prefer using directly yomitan on the subtitles if needed.

I’ll prepare the schedule today and hopefully I will be able to submit it here before the end of the day !

Would this schedule be ok for everybody ?
I can search the titles of the episodes in english, too, but I’m afraid it would overload the table.

Episodes Starting
1 & 2 May 4th
3 & 4 May 11th
5 & 6 May 18th
7 & 8 May 25th
9 & 10 June 1st

Does this mean we have to watch the first two episodes until May 4th or starting on May 4th? (Either is fine by me)

Starting, I think, as I still have to make the main post and the first post.
I’ve modified the table accordingly.

So @araigoshi isn’t it time to open nominations as the current watching ends in one week ?
Or are we going to watch the 2 last anime we voted for one after another ?

Also, I assume that next, we’ll be watching とんでもスキルで異世界放浪メシ — Campfire Cooking in Another World with My Absurd Skill, @Rehanmalik can you take care of the threads for this anime as you nominated it ? :slightly_smiling_face:

For these clubs, nominations are generally always open as long as there haven’t been 20 yet (the forum poll limit), which this club isn’t anywhere close to.

Sure, should I open it next week? Or should I create the homethread now.
This is my first time.

I think you can do what’s best for you. I’ve seen threads for the ABBC club open even if the club doesn’t start until july^^

Yeah, as @seanblue said, nominations are welcome anytime (well unless we get to 20 active). Clubs will callout accepting nominations in the title in the lead up to the poll mostly to save people from the “oh I had something to nominate bur forgot to before the poll”

With the second show underway it’s soon time for the poll for the third show. I’ll create the next poll on Friday evening, so if you have any nominations to get in before the next poll, submit them this week.

デキる猫は今日も憂鬱 - The Masterful Cat Is Depressed Again Today

Natively: Level 24

6ea54bae-ee4f-43c4-92ab-945ac0116055

Summary from MyAnimeList

The Maine Coon is one of the largest domesticated cat breeds, standing out among other cats for its impressive size and intelligence. But regular salarywoman Saku Fukuzawa has a hard time explaining why her rescued black cat now towers over her. Yukichi is no run-of-the-mill cat; he is a masterful feline who has taken charge of the chores in the Fukuzawa household. While his master rushes to catch the train during the morning rush hour and works late into the night, the giant cat is diligently packing Saku’s lunch, cooking her meals, cleaning their home, and buying groceries.

Availability

Just Watch
Seems to be Crunchyroll/Amazon Prime Video
I’m not sure if that means you can buy it physically off of Amazon :thinking:

Personal Opinion

I watched this in English a few months ago. Cats are cute, and Yukichi is both cute and a competent housekeeper. Saku is hopeless at taking care of herself because she works late. I like watching the domestic life, and there’s delicious food.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Crunchyroll counts as widely available right?
  • Most of the language is about cooking, shopping, cleaning, working
  • I managed to find JP subs online
  • Cats

Cons

  • One MAL Review complained that cats are meant to be taken care of and it’s icky to have the cat be the caretaker
  • Watching Saku work until 11pm and wake up at 7am is kind of depressing in a “adulting is soul crushing” kind of way
  • There’s pressure from Saku’s coworkers for Saku to get married, and Saku likes her current life with Yukichi.
  • Saku likes drinking, and alcohol is not appropriate for everyone.
