You'll be waiting for SW3 like everyone else! Also the fused Vividreds didn't look anything like adults, excuses to jerk off are for nerds.

my nano project two years ago was basically law and order with wizards. i should've written wizard barristers.
i mean, i've got a law degree and everything...
/edit sherlock holmes isn't pretentious. if you've read the stuff you'd realise that what sherlock holmes really is is pulp fiction

I don't get how something can be both overambitious and samey at the same time nor how any of this applies to the later parts of Hyouka.
e: and now corvos calling sherlock holmes pretentious jesus christ
How pretentious.
Not yet. When I am dead, especially the longer I'm dead, then it's pretentious.
Basically everything about death is pretentious, really.
I don't get how something can be both overambitious and samey at the same time nor how any of this applies to the later parts of Hyouka.
Wait I thought he was putting forth an either/or scenario and only applying the latter to Hyouka.
Also I doubt Sherlock Holmes was pretentious, unless Doyle really did intend it to be some significant cultural milestone and not random stories about some asshole detective and his drug addiction problem.
This is what happens when you die, man. If you don't think dying makes you pretentious, put it to the test. I guarantee it. And if you are dissatisfied with the results when you are dead, I promise a full refund.
Princess Tutu 4
Is a show about a Duck forced to marry a Cat even though she's in love with Mewtwo.
Is bestiality wrong if humans aren't involved?
Sin against nature is still sin against nature, I guess.

Wow. So many Gaffers who haven't watched Clannad and Clannad After Story. That's disappointing.
I think those who haven't watched Clannad and After Story need to watch it and be "re-educated".
To the first 10 or so people who haven't watch Clannad or Clannad After Story I challenge you to watch it. If you do I will watch an anime of your choosing (under 50 episodes please) by the end of the year all the way to the end so long as you do so too.
Who will step up to this challenge? Accept now so I can watch the anime the challengers recommend me. Go.

Hey, man, let's not do anything too hasty.
So what I'm taking away from Princess Tutu is that instead of fighting in giant robots they battle by dancing at enemies. Instead of the heart of the cards or the soul of the fist or something to that effect, dancing is both battle and communication between adversaries here.
In that sense it's kinda early in the game for Tutu to be showing off her trump card in front of someone I still expect to be her opponent down the road.

So you're saying mahou shoujo are like bees?
Kind of hard to accept without first knowing what anime you haven't watched.
But then I would have to look at Key's art without even the benefit of the KyoAni filter.
I only watched the first few episodes before dropping it, but I'm willing to take your offer. I can do Clannad + After Story for 2 anime of my choice that will be around 24 episodes total for both.

I will let you know if I have or haven't watched whatever any challengers recommend. I won't con you into it.
I'll actually be very interested to see if people will be mean and recommend me anime that will make me cringe all the way through or be nice and also recommend me some good anime to watch.

So pretentious.
The character design is still ugly even with the KyoAni filter, so I'm calling diminishing returns on that.
You don't have a MAL or something?

watch Akira asap.
Luci is a cutie in everything. Best argument for dubbing.
Few things will properly prepare someone for Makoto in that hat.

I can do that. But to be fair I need to know the name of the anime so we both know if I have or haven't watched the show yet.
Don't worry I will post a review on all the anime's episodes I am challenged in here on AnimeGAF. So long as the other posters do the same for Clannad and After Story.
I don't understand the question.

Have you watched Tatami Galaxy or Kuuchuu Buranko?

Nope watched neither.
Which one did you want me to see? Only one series since I am only asking people to watch one series.
Oh! No I do not. I actually have a written down list of most of the anime I have ever watched. And I am actually writing down right now the people accepting the challenge and what anime they are requesting of me.
Watch Tatami Galaxy
Regulus Tera
Romanes Eunt Domus
[Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon Sailor Stars] 195
So, is it me or should Usagi
Also, that concert started at night time. Just saying.
This is some CLAMP shit going on.
So, is it me or should Usagi
have stayed with Seiya instead of Mamoru, regardless of whether he might be dead or not? Mamoru's relationship with her never seemed very real to me. I understand they are going for a "fated lovers" angle with those two, but you see Usagi and Seiya actually enjoying themselves a lot, whereas plenty of times it's almost as if Mamoru is just going out with Usagi because they were lovers in another lifetime.

If we want to be technical Clannad and Clannad: After Story are two separate series.

Alright then. I watch Tatami Galaxy all the way through and you will watch Clannad and Clannad After Story all the way through. Accept Challenge?
I think it's one whole series. It's like saying Chihiyafuru S1 and S2 are two separate series. Or Sekirai and Sekirai: Pure Engagement are two separate series.
But it's fine. Did you want to take on the challenge?

The Clannad VN is also stupidly long, it'd be pretty bad to take on in exchange for some short anime.

You can just ask me if I have seen something and I can tell you yes or no. That would be easier.
On a scale of 1 to 10 how much of it is melodrama/love triangle type stuff?

Hyouka Review
Watch episode 1-5, skip till 12. Watch till 17. Skip till 21. Maybe 7 if you like hotspring episodes.
This might have been better if it had been a 12 episode Anime.
Some parts were genuinely great and others felt like filler. I also feel that they tried way too hard at playing the high school angst angle with the whole talent/luck/whatever it was the movie girl and the manga club chick was talking about. I did like the whole gray vs rose colored thing they got going to a degree though.
Oreki antics were enjoyable and how they presented the deductions were interesting. Also, Satoshi is a really good friend for hanging with him for that long. Rather the "bad" characters were the female ones. Did we really need Ibara? Out of all the characters it felt like she was the least needed.
There are subtle hints at real development but never fully explored which was a shame.
Question, is the Kyoani female lead having an annoying catch phrase a trope? Saw this in Kanata and I'm not sure if Clannad had it (Maybe Sanae counts).
Overall
High/Middle B-tier. It felt like Clannad with something missing but it's still pretty enjoyable.
Lemme go watch Daily Lives of Highschool boys and see if that deserved to win AOTY any more than this.

Corvo isn't entirely wrong

No somebody has to die first. Or be British.
Well there is some French going on. French is like British for people who want to be pretentious but not understood. So I guess I could swing that.
And I guess Dr. Hell is dead, so sure, why not.

Pani Poni Dash! 17
Well... At least the maid cafe was mostly normal... Other than that there were spray-painted chicks, aliens on swings, a jungle and video format wars. So, another Pani Poni Dash episode basically.

Love triangle? I think it's pretty clear from the get go who the MC likes.
Just trust me when I say I don't think you'll be disappointed. Clannad is one of the best things to come out of KyoAni.
Your question is pretty loaded to be honest.
Great. I will start on your show later today.
--------------------------
BTW guys please provide links to watch the anime you want me to watch. Unless it's on Crunchyroll. Then just tell me that and I'll watch it there.

I would love to take up this challenge only I watched and loved Clannad and After Story.
. I'd take it up with another anime though!But seriously though, everybody should watch Clannad. It's a really beautiful story.
Gankutsuou must be super fucking pretentious then.
You got me to check and realize that the Idolmaster movie showed up in Nagano a week ago and I had no idea. I was even already in the city for stuff. Damn.
If it's still there in a week I'll go see it.
