Hi everybody! It is time for what I am sure is everybody's favorite thread of the week, the weekly general thread! How have things been going for you with the winter season this past week? I have seen a lot of new faces in this community over tha past week (it's anybody's guess as to why), so if you have recently joined us, feel free to introduce yourself in this thread as well! If you are searching for something to say, here are some example discussion starters to inspire you:

Is High Card about how to register for your medical marijuana card?
I feel lied to by Hokkaido Gals Are Super Adorable! I was waiting in the snow for a train that was late the other day, and no gals started talking to me. Instead, I just got literal cold feet.
I wonder if that little robot bird from Metallic Rouge was also running linux like its forebear, the Ingenuity copter?

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).

Is Saikyou Tank worth watching?

It seems to have high viewing numbers, but I never see anyone talking about it.

It's not on any of the /c or /r charts, so where are all the people who watch it?

I just took a quick glance through the discussion threads on reddit and it doesn't really strike me as that interesting. A brief summary of what I was able to piece together (I put it behind spoiler tags, but I don't think it will be that surprising if you read the synopsis):

Strongest Tank summary through ep. 3

MC is the tank for the hero's party, but then the hero decides to kick him out for an evasion tank instead because it is more trendy (I also think the new tank is a hot girl rather than burly dude). Turns out that the MC was actually super OP and the hero is a huge jerk! MC decides to head to his hometown to see his sister (he is a huge siscon). He runs into some other adventurer on the way back to his hometown and they find out that he also has a super powerful offensive ability as well. The hero's party proceeds to fall apart without Mr. Super Tank as a harem of old and new women form around the MC.

That is what I have been able to piece together up through episode 3 anyway. I am watching enough this season that I don't think I have enough time to devote to it. Frankly, nothing really catches my attention from what I have gleaned. Additionally, screenshots I have seen from the threads show that the character models are nice, but there are some definite budget constraints when it comes to animating the environment/enemies.
