The anime thread sequel (it's still not as good as the Manga though),

Did anyone watch The Elusive Samurai whilst airing? I watched the first few episodes and barring one character being slightly unlikeable I thought the art direction and animation of the chase sequences to be utterly mesmerising, still on my "Damn I need to actually finish this list" but was wondering if anyone had watched it through and could shed some light if it only gets better in terms of the visuals and is worthy of a watch? Not that I don't have a million other things to bloody complete before I end up inevitably re-watching NGE or re-reading Goodnight PunPun/Berserk

Can't believe MF Ghost ended in the middle of another race again lol. I think we'll get more and I am here for it (yes, even despite the fact they think we have low water pressure and run out of hot water lol).

Oh I forgot all about MF Ghost. Worth watching right?

I like it but I don't normally watch motorsports, so can't speak for it's technical accuracy in that respect.

I think the main criticism MF Ghost has over Initial D, the writer did get help with all the technical stuff from people that are in motorsport for Initial D. In MF Ghost he apparently didn't get any, so I would just watch MF Ghost for the entertainment over it trying to be semi-accurate.
If you like street racing but using some fake-motorsport interpretation, with some young adult romance drama then its a fun watch.
At least he nailed in getting all the right parts/sponsorship to use their rights. A lot of the parts on the GT86 are from blitz which you can buy.

How good was season 1? What anime is it similar to?

Just caught up with the first 2 episodes of Solo Levelling. Very good! He is getting stronger, I love it!

Really solid first season, dark dingy atmosphere coupled with characters that are fleshed out, motivated and have their own morals. Does throw in a little comedic aspect from time to time but not to a degree it undercuts the story at hand. Chainsaw man might be a good comparison? Though even as a fan of Chainsaw Man I'd argue Dorohedoro develops on characters a lot more and gives you more of a chance to connect with them. There's a reason it's got an 8 score on MAL for a reason and even while it's mostly if not entirely CGI, it doesn't take away from a really good story.
