  • Here is my breakdown at first glance for next season:

    Must Watch

    • Dan Da Dan Season 2
    • Bunny Girl Senpai: Santa Claus Edition - I love the Mai/Sakuta dynamic, so I am hoping we get a good dose of that this season.
    • City - By the same author as Nichijou and it looks great.
    • Mikadono Sisters - I think I made a promise to watch this one in the past over in !manga@ani.social, so this is me fulfilling that promise.

    Definitely Giving a Chance

    • 7th Prince Season 2 - Curious to see how the production holds up to season 1.
    • Silent Witch - I am reading the manga and enjoying it a lot. Nero 😻!
    • Vending Machine Season 2 - Hoping it stays as oddly compelling as the first season.

    Time/Reception Permitting

    • Tsuyokute New Saga - I read the manga and…it was ok. Mainly curious to see what the adaptation is like.
    • The Summer Hikaru Died - I have only heard fantastic things about the manga. Waiting to see how the reception of the anime is.
    • Nyaight of the Living Cat - It sounds so ridiculous that I think I might wait to see if people are vibing with the humor or not.



  • It boggles my mind that in-line spoilers are still not a thing in lemmy. The issue on github was raised three years ago! I don’t know a lick of rust, but I do know just enough python to be dangerous, so I decided to just make it happen in piefed.

    Actually, when I did it and got it working, I was really hesitant about it and reached out to rimu before making the PR. In-line spoilers just show up as normal text to people from federated lemmy instances, so having in-line spoilers on one piece of software and not the others could be problematic. At the end of the day, we decided that it wasn’t worth waiting on the lemmy devs.


  • piefed <-> lemmy federation works pretty well. You can browse communities, comments, votes, etc. just fine like it were any other lemmy instance. The only caveats to this are a couple features that are piefed-only right now. Off the top of my head the ones I can think of are post-flairs, spoiler tagging of posts, in-line spoilers, username flairs, and poll posts. So, a poll on a piefed instance (like this one) would be limited to other piefed users being able to vote because lemmy doesn’t have polls.


  • Happy birthday! Here’s to the next year together!

    The piefed news is pretty exciting for me. For those of you that don’t dive into the code, I have actually been contributing to piefed for a little while now (my first issue was 7 months ago now); even recently being made a contributor on the codeberg repository. So, if anybody wants to sneak something in like an Erased-themed 404 page or a Haruhi-themed admin page, let me know 😜 /s. I was the one that coded all the spoiler features in piefed, so if you are trying it out and find an issue, please feel free to reach out. I have quite a list of other improvements that I want to work on as well, so great things are on the horizon for piefed I believe.










  • I didn’t realize 7th Prince had a LN. I read a good chunk of the manga and really the standout feature is the art. The story is entirely forgettable. The anime is similar in that the production was a more interesting story than the actual show.

    Really curious how Vending Machine will play out if it goes anime original. I feel like one of the main reasons the first season “worked” was you could tell that the author had a peculiar passion about vending machines. Not sure that can be replicated if they start doing original content.
