I want to fuck that monster
Bela is a social animal that goes by the name Annabella.
Hey kid, wanna /ll/?
Ordinarily I'd be yelling corner instructions against similar behaviors, but this is Bela we're talking about, so this one time I'd rather tell the suspicious-looking cake to run for her life.
I don't know why but I come up with the recent wolf&vampire shit, which I cannot even remember its title. Tell me, Yea Forums. Is this going to be another pretentious and soulless shit?
They're no better than those on Outside.
Doesn't seem to be particularly pretentious, the original series was far more serious.
Kill, ignore, marry, fuck.
They can't taste food? That's a pretty cursed existence right there.
Based
Shame this anime is getting no attention at all
tfw no gf
19:05 in, dropped. Thought the episode was at least better than the first one but of course there's yet another stupid psychopathic villain. Bland as fuck.
>tfw no monster gf
FTFY
Pleb filtered
First episode had 3 thread and none of them passed 100 posts. Why? It wasn't awful.
I suppose many Yea Forumsnons dropped it right away, there's also the fact that this airs quite late.
pretty much everybody is getting so everybody who's sticking with it is either a monsterfucker ( which is me btw) and the fans of the original show
It's not moe, it's not shounen, it's not a meme and it's not based on a strong franchise. The rest doesn't matter nowadays.
I share this sentiment after how fucking strange the episode turned.
what that fuck was that bowling monster?
Even Nakahito Genome had more active thread and it's dumb shit. Even fujoshit and yaoishit had
yes, the design of the monster of the week is quite bizarre indeed, this Professor who's making all the monsters must have strange tastes, even by Bem standards
It wasn't a monster
It was just a hired gun and not a very loyal one
The first episode told us this is going to be another human/monster debating theme. Usually, they don't have a decent story to carry out the theme. Just look at these two episodes, soulless villain popping up just to fill up the story so that it can last for like 12 episodes.
We're still in the character's introduction
There's no way this is going to be just 12 episodes
probably like 24-26 like the original
>atmospheric police procedural stuff
>youkai trying to live among people SoL
>mystery plot
>suddenly toku-esque corny themed monster of the week shows up
>turns into a super power brawl like something out of a saturday morning cartoon
>immediately goes back to mystery plot and police stuff as if this were a natural, seamless transition
I see now why this show isn't more popular. It's kinda hard to get into the mood to watch something like this when it can't decide what mood it wants to set.
she cute
she lewd
Her monster form is way hotter actually
Bem ate all the other anime!
That's gotta hurt.
In a city populated by monsters, a forensics department that doesn't take weeks is more unbelievable.
I wish I was in a city populated by monsters
maybe the forensics department is also entirely made up by monsters who have the ability to analize DNA and shit faster than any machine
Post screenshots of her monster form
no.
It's her true self, it's who Bela is. To be nitpicking she "untransforms" when she goes from elf to monster.
well Fuck you too
I know it's her true self
It's just easier to say
All I know is that Bem is best girl
Do you think you could fuck her in these forms? Literally all I was thinking the whole episode.
This episode had more character development and worldbuilding than the first one, but the constant tonal whiplash really undermined any kind of tension. The campy villain felt especially out of place. Were the first two shows like this?
This
It’s really hard to decipher the tone of the show, it’s like a hastily scrambled mixed bag. The editing and sound mixing are both really bad too
it depends on whether she has genital organs at all
no
I enjoy the episode. And the tonal whisplash doesn't bother me too much.. At least now we know they didn't redesign the trio, and the human forms are based on people who died. That's neat
Helps you think these designs are because they want to practise being human by blending into human society, and in the past they used the classic designs.
Is he Tilarna's dad?
I bet her head game is off the chart. Doujins when?!
That's one hell of a stand.
I don't think this series is gonna get any doujins seeing as it's barely even gotten any fan art.
This looks awesome, why I was not informed this show was airing?
because nobody is actually watching except us
Yeah her monster design is pretty dope but just be warned you’re not going to be very impressed with the transformation animation. It is very obvious that they just use some sort of program to produce AI generated in-between frames so that they didn’t have to actually animate them by hand. I don’t have an issue with the program itself being used because animators use this technique in anime all the time for less important scenes, but when it’s so glaringly obvious that it looks unintentionally tacky it ends up being hilariously bad.
I'd say "I hope this gets fixed in the BD" but it's intentional so it's definitely going to stay like that for the rest of the show
She's hot and the monster design is cool
this show fucking sucks. also, sneed
This reminds me of some scooby doo monster
Bela a cute, a CUTE.
>weaponized bowling
I'm in.
Is her neck the diameter of a Pringles can?
This show is so bizarre but I'm genuinely looking forward to the next episode.
The OST is fucking amazing so even if the quality fizzles out, there was at least one good thing to come out of it.
This scene was hilarious
This, when Bonzai Bowler turned up it almost gave me whiplash.
Is Slicing Simian in this one too?
>Soil and Pimp sessions did the OP
Instant AOTS for me
There's glimpses of a really good show in here but I think my main problem is it doesn't go far enough in one direction. Like it's not surreal enough that I can accept a fucking giant bowling themed human hitman suddenly appearing when the rest of the setting has been pretty down to earth (disregarding the youkai that are supposed to be unknown to the common citizen)
Their monster forms look different from each other. are they the same species of alien?
Is Bem going to fuck the Maaya Sakamoto character? Asking for a friend
>these designs are because they want to practise being human by blending into human society, and in the past they used the classic designs
That's probably exactly how the old designs are going to cameo in this series, like how Nekomusume's regular post 2000s look was repurposed into a toddler form in Kitaro 6
>Those cunts in the beginning.
Hit too close to home. I had my notebook full of doodles grabbed like that before too. Wasn't drawing girls in the class or dicks or anything like that, but was still embarrassing as hell.
If a gorilla monster shows up I might lose my mind.
reminds me of highschool where some cunt spat on my notebook, however i was a psychotic individual back then due to being on the wrong meds and i shanked him through the cheek with my pencil in retaliation
Jesus Fucking Christ, schizoanon!
I dislike the enemy monster design so far honestly
Bela's was nice
This episode was also way better than the first
Maaya's op song is great too
That's hard as fuck user-kun.
The first episode made me feel like I'd be skipping this show since nothing appeared to be very interesting, but this 2nd one was definitely better. The random-ass bowling ball man was a pretty fucking strange decision though, the episode actually managed to build up some atmosphere and then they drop that faggot right in.
This was actually a cool design. Last episode's monsters hadn't impressed me.
It's a good 'un.
So far, as others have said, the enemy design has been the worst part of the series. Its tonally jarring. The series goes through all this effort to make the setting seem serious and straight up heavily redesigned the main characters to be more brooding in personality and serious in their design. And then we get wacky water clown and goofy bowlingball hitman. And then its back to being brooding and serious. It takes me right out of the moment.
Based not on meds but I stabbed some annoying faggot with a pencil right in his hand
>tfw no alien gf to give sloppy sharp teeth long tongue blowjobs
I'm all for the monsterfucking.
Less sure about the Sailor Moon Negaverse -level villains.
But I'll watch more.
Zoroark
But Cuter !
Thought it was a pretty good episode.
No, they're not ayyliens. The origins of Bem, Bela and Belo is a top secret lab incident, they were born "neither human nor animal."
