If you haven't seen Mushishi, you're the one missing out on the best anime ever made.

I am gonna watch some Toradora now. I need some comedy and practicality.
As someone who finished Toradora last night,
don't watch the last few episodes if you're not looking for maximum #FEELINGS ;_;
Are you making fun of my ears? Eh?!?!
I would never.
Noted.

You have very lovely animal ears Nafe.
Yes! Its a really quite enjoyable series as well.
This looks promising. Definitely on my to watch list.
Doesn't seem like this season will deliver on the cuteness compared to the last two though. I need a new Non Non Biyori in my heart.
I hope they compensate with stupidity, but it'll be hard to top Kill la Kill and Samumenco.
I need to go and rewatch it before S2. Not much time left though...
It appears to contain enough cute to sustain me for a bit.

The Pilot's Love Song 11
While I still think the metaplot is pretty stupid, I'm glad that the initial stage seems to be officially over and they seem to be just moving on. Certainly it has the feeling of finality.
And, in terms of just doing interesting things to the redshirts in a way that makes it more memorable than Attack on Titan, you have this happen:

If the main characters, by necessity, have to have plot armor then I guess this is the most fair compromise that an author can come up with.
The dogfights are what they are, but I have to hope that they start being able to use real planes soon because having a dude shoot out the back with a rifle WW1 style is pretty boring to watch.

That is exactly how I felt about the show, the rats and the other colonies, they try to push them onto you as being innocent and lower than human beings but in the end I just didn't care about them. It's like the show is hinting, saying "hey, are you interested in why the animals are being treated this way? If so then....."

K-On! 04
The age old argument. Maid cafe or haunted house at the school festival.
Training camp at Mugis summer house! Too bad it's more fun to goof off than it is to practice. Lots of choking, both of guitar strings and people in this episode. And a little emotional bit too when Yui plays in front of the fireworks.

I think this is exactly the opposite of what the series is trying to do.
Don't read these spoilers PshycoNinja, or anyone who has not seen the whole series!
The Monstrats are hardly innocent, or lower than human beings. Aside from the fact that they're all that's left genetically of humanity, part of the point of the series - and indeed, Squealer's ideology - is that the Monstrats are just as sophisticated and cunning as those who possess Jyuryoku.
If you don't find them interesting that's one thing - I can't set out to change your opinion, or PshycoNinja's. I can, however, very strongly disagree with you both

There's neither Akarin nor Haruka so what you have to gain from it?!
We should all be so lucky.

Santa Shino was cute, and her idea about explaining why she's Santa is filled with intrigue and the potential for many more puns. This season's had so much Uomi, and for that, I'm glad. Chiwa Saito's a star in whatever she does, and her interactions with Shino are fun to watch, even if Aria remains my favorite.

Haunted maid cafe = win

Not much I'm interested in at the moment besides Love Live S2, Date A Live II and Puchimas. Guess it'll be a good time to get caught up on the backlog...including finally watching Utena.

That's fine. I wish I liked it as much as you do. I never set out on a show/movie/game wanting to not like it. What's the joy or fun it that? But I also like deductive reasoning and logic. I don't mind taking leaps of faith but when things start to get really weird or contradict itself I feel the thing I am watching/playing is wasting my time.
Now, From the New World has set it's rules and has followed them pretty closely. So it gets points for that. That doesn't mean however I will just sit here and accept just any character crap they try to sling at me. Character relationships are vapid at this point. They don't matter to these characters except maybe Saki. And Saki is basically in love with everyone, so whatever.
So I hope there's something soon that can change my view on the show. So far though characters are shallow and the plot keeps running in circles. You can say "well that's how it's supposed to be", because if it is then that's a terrible thing to do to your story to create shallow characters with a plot that spins it's wheels. It's like how people try to argue that Lightning not having a personality in Lightning Returns is a necessary and needed thing and it makes the game better. It doesn't.
From the New World has been sitting in my queue for a long time because I was interested in it. It took that contract with Branduil for me to pull the trigger. I hope it can pull it off in the end.
Osaka is a special snowflake.

I might as well not get your hopes up now - the parrot does not die.
;_;
Life just isn't fair.
The struggle is real, that's for sure.
So two yuri shows...and a possible third one Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu Ka? This one appears in Monthly Kirara, right?
At long last, Crunchyroll is finally, actually coming to the Vita today.
http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-ne...available-for-playstation-vita-starting-today
edit: only for North and South America for now, it seems.
If I actually had a Vita this would be great.
Sony actually announced this in their PS Blog post earlier this morning but I guess we all missed it.

And hopefully it's not a buggy mess.
Awesome, now all we need is a futanari tag and we're good.
Bueno.gif. Anime on that OLED screen!
I wonder if it's going to be as half assed as the Android version. My HTC One doesn't even seem to load videos in HD
Oh no MikeHattsu is watching the child prons oh no my conspicuous moral outrage.

This was the episode with "dem hips".
I posted my list last OT. There's more I'm watching than not, but that goes for most seasons.
Tokyo Ravens 23
So that's Kyoko's power.
Lots of battles going on this week, but the part that was the most fun to watch was likely the espionage sequence. And of course. Kon.

Star reading and the ability to see that Natsume is waiting out there in some other universe. How they're going to get there, I don't know, but it sounds exciting.

If only that was an epidemic.
Sorry I seem to be suffering from Vitamin-P deficiency so every time I am asked to do something I have to say "refuse"
Narag gets it.
I need to get a life. I took a full week off and still took second. Summer can't get here any sooner.
I bet this is why you have an anime avatar, too!
