By rewatch, I’m referring to an organized groupwatch where we watch a previously released anime on a certain schedule and discuss our thoughts in individual posts. It’s from r/anime, yes, but I think it could be a good thing to have here, particularly as a way for people to get to know each other.

Would people here be interested in this? If so, are there any anime that you’d be particularly interested in (re)watching?

    I always liked reading along with the /r/anime rewatches

    Same for me. I also like the idea of bringing rewatches to lemmy.

    Maybe it would be a good idea to start of with movies or short OVAs to test the waters? It would be a smaller commitment for participants.

      I was thinking of starting with movies, perhaps 2 to 4 over a couple of weeks.

        Sounds like a good idea. Over on r/anime there is usually an interest thread followed by an announcement thread and then the actual rewatch thread. Given the small scope of this community right now I think an interest thread would be overkill.

        The best option might be for those interested in hosting a rewatch to just go straight to the announcement. Those interested in participating can than chime in.

        The announcement should probably contain:

        • The title we are watching (duh)
        • links to MAL and AniList
        • a synopsis
        • date (I recommend adding the time in UTC format so everyone can quickly figure out the time for their own timezone.)

        Maybe the mods could sticky post a short rewatch 101?

        Beyond that we can always make improvements later.
