Kimetsu no Yaiba almost lost me with the standard shounen training episode (and the lack of cute demon sister interactions).  That didn't last forever like some other anime/manga, though, and it go back on track quickly.

I don't know how to trim posts anymore so I'm leaving my old post up there, gomen gomen.

Aru is really amusing to me, she might be favorite girl despite being part of the non-blonde half of the cast. Love how she keeps making dumb mistakes and tries to play them off like she's not making dumb mistakes. I was laughing out loud when she was pretending the hanger in her shirt was a fashion statement.

The manga differences are interesting, is this a 4-koma originally or a normal weekly manga? I guess I have a tough time telling age differences in anime anyway. I forgot the characters were in middle school because I feel like I see high school characters with similar designs in other anime. The ninja girl looks about as developed as Karen in Kinmoza.

From what little Japanese I took for work, I thought "zannen desu ne" was like "oh that's a shame", and so I assumed they were reflecting that same feeling about her bad luck. Loser seems kinda mean, but if its intended to be an light insult it seems more fitting. I always dislike when manga translators use ill-fitting words though. I remember Mangastream would always throw in random curse words when a character was expressing any mild frustration. I don't think I've seen so many random f-bombs as I did from that talking pig in Seven Deadly Sins.

Trim posts with Delete Table.  At least, that's what I do.

Yeah, Bocchi is a 4-koma.  They're middle school students so, yeah, I think they look a bit too much like high school students in the anime.  I think the manga designs are a better fit.

Poor little Bocchi ...

With the four main characters accounted for, I expect the focus to shift back to Bocchi's quest to make friends with the supporting characters, many of whom have been shown already in the background.  Sleeping-mask-on-her-head-girl is one of my favorites.
