Another week of the year is in the books which means we get a new general discussion thread. Feel free to use this thread to talk about what you have been watching lately, questions about a series you didn't understand, recommendations for what to watch next, or any number of things. A couple examples to get your brain gears turning:

What anime character this season has the best facial hair and why is it Denken?
Konami is making their own anime? If you enter the code in the player, do you get the uncensored version?
I saw that Maomao was on the cover of the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare magazine. What do you think the next anime character used by the Japanese government will be? Perhaps Ai Hoshino for the Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology?

As always, remember to be mindful of spoilers. If you want to know more about how to handle spoilers in this community, check the guide here (also linked in the sidebar).

I haven't watched Pluto, nor have I read the source, but the reactions I have seen to it have been very interesting. I don't think you are alone in your views, I have seen plenty of other people that have thought it was good, but not particularly special. Then, there has been a very vocal group that praise it like it was their anime of the year. It might just be one of those stories that just connects with some people and not with others.
