Otaku Oratory #19: Voting and Nominations

[Maypews]

Nominating Lupin the 3rd Part I

Although I wouldn't look twice at nominations of a 1 cour show since we could theoretically watch that in one sitting if we binged, I'm not sure if a 24 episode show works well for this format. It would suck if someone had already seen it or didn't like it and we had to spend the next 2 sessions on it. Hence why we tend to keep to movies and OVAs. Though as I said I think a 1 cour show could work (12 or less eps), but I dunno about 2, maybe if the others ITT are open to it. Lupin is a fairly foundational series that I'm sure many of us haven't watched yet.

I nominate Majuu Senshi Luna Varga!

Poll's started, didn't get too many nominations this time around.

I totally understand this. I didn’t really think much about the logistics of it. Just kinda something I’ve been wanting to watch myself that I threw out because I don’t have too much else in the way of suggestions for something episodic.

Well, the episodic vote is unrelated to this one. This is for the two main shows of the event, not the one episode at the start of the session; that was already decided via poll earlier. It's alright though, I'll probably remove it from the next poll and we'll just watch Cap's nomination because I don't think a 2 cour show is all that logistically feasible. At the very least I'd want us to try doing a 1 cour show before we dipped our toes into something that ambitious, lol.

[Maypews]

Nominating Redline, Nightsong of Splendor, and Kara no Kyoukai Movie 1.

[capstasher]

Nominating Spriggan.

[Parzival]

It doesn't have to be super soon but I nominate that we watch Cyberpunk Edgerunners in the lead up to Edgerunners II

Poll's open. I do feel inclined to say that it is possible this OO won't happen due to extenuating circumstances on my end, but we will nonetheless conduct the vote in case it does happen.

First poll was won by Kara no Kyoukai, 2nd is now open. I think I'll be able to host this, but no guarantees. Also don't vote for Cyberpunk please in the 2nd poll, it's way too long to watch in one session alongside another show. That one will definitely have to be it's own session when it wins.
