Finished watching The Mighty Nein (Amazon streaming series, American adult cartoon). One season, 8 episodes.
Started or at least continued watching Dandadan (Japanese anime). Watching the second season. Watched the first when it was new (after it got translated to English, at least). I’ll watch anime in Japanese if I’m in a hurry to see it or something, but if it’s any good, it’ll get translated anyway. And then it gets voiced by theatre nerds you can actually meet IRL, and they’re mostly cool people. Some of them even get together in their spare time, play D&D, make a successful podcast out of it, and then make The Mighty Nein. (Critical Role stars Travis Willingham and Laura Bailey met while voicing Roy Mustang and Lust, respectively, in the English translation of Fullmetal Alchemist over 20 years ago, and are married now. Series creator Matt Mercer is also big in voice work. Most of them do video games as well as anime translations.)
How did you like nein? I started the first episode but I was just not in the mood for a show that wants to start in media res and not explain itself and have not bothered going back.
