Arcadia Dragnet, Year 1, Issue 21

May 20 - 26, 2020


Hey, welcome to Arcadia Dragnet. Sorry for the delay again, I've been stressed out and worried for my friends... But fortunately there are lots of cool anime that've helped me keep okay! I watched Kaijuu no Kodomo, Shiki and Tenki no Ko and got into groupwatches of Heybot and The Perfect Insider. A lot of people are suffering a lot more than I am right now and I hope things turn out all right... but for now, let's check out what fansubs came out!

Finally AnimoTVSlash released fansubs for Hakubo. As this blog has noted before, AnimoTVSlash, also known as Spring Animes 2018 HD, is an infamously terrible fansub group whose translations are horribly inaccurate. They also put watermarks on their video releases.
