Eh, I figure it is as much a stylization choice as it is a nod to ONE's onepunch man's webtoon before Yusuke Murata picked it up for redrawing as a manga.

I've been watching Ore Monogatari lately and it is absolutely killing me with sweetness. I can't even.

I love how, despite Takeo being Earth's mightiest hero, the way he dresses outside of school (crappy t-shirts and board shorts) and how he slouches make him come off very strongly as still some first-year high school kid.
Rinko could have used some more characterization than "sweets" and "Takeo kakkoii," but I guess she had her moments with her friends, plus the first and last arcs are largely about her feelings.

It's just unacceptable levels of saccharine adorbs.

You're all watching One-Punch Man, right? I know this is the stuff most of you like.

Okay, follow-up to my mention of Symphogear a while back: I caught up to the end of season three, so I'm now current and I hope they end up going for a season 4.
To be sure, this is not a show you watch for the clever and thought-provoking narrative, but god damn if this isn't the hype-est shit. Some context for the scene. The titular Symphogears are basically magic armor fueled by the power of J-pop. This clip is from the first ~5 minutes of season 3's episode 1 (don't worry, there's not much in the way of spoilers), and the cast is trying to stop a shuttle carrying some plot tokens from crashing.
