It's a new week, which means a new general discussion thread. As the summer season is under way in earnest this week, here is your chance to talk about anything you want anime-related, even if it has nothing to do with the new shows. I have mostly been on vacation this past week, so I am going to live somewhat vicariously through your comments.

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 sympathize with this. However, I guess one of the contributing factors to this decision was an influx of hate speech in the comments. If CR doesn't want to invest in enough moderators to keep the comments free of that kind of thing, then I would prefer no comments at all and those discussions to move elsewhere that are more actively moderated. MAL, AniList, reddit, and in a much smaller volume, this community are all outlets that have active discussions and active moderation. I am sure there are others as well. TBH, I am not super plugged into the social side of anime other than this community, so there are likely plenty of other social venues.

tl;dr - a few bad people ruin nice things for everybody
