Jojo Star Crusaders 2

STRONG. FEMALE. CHARACTERS. EVERYWHERE. Also I still hate this Jojo because he hates such a loving mother. I hate when my mom acts lovey dovey but I don't call her a bitch. Jeesh. He lacks the charisma of best Jojo. I miss him already.

Yare yare daze.

 

[Narag]

we'll never forget the Girlock Holmes we saw that day.

I'd take Girlock Holmes if it meant a western Hyouka release at this point

God damn it, I thought these were both Branduil. I even quoted the first once.

So should I watch the new break blade tv series or just watch the only anime films?

 

[AquaWateria]

NO game NO life - 01

Above average.
Just like mondaijitachi , i love the idea of characters going to a new foreign world and having no reason to go back to .. More they are enjoying their new status .

NGNL is no different with characters that are confronted to their best challenge yet.
And i like this aspect of this franchise ..now i have no idea how the author plans to make things more intresting but right now he has my attention.

I realise that many ( here in particular ) don't like characters that are too overpowered, too smart , powerfull , or too perfect.... but i don't mind seeing characters that are masters in their own field and are rolling with it.

In short , no game no life first episode is a solid 7/10 IMO... Nothing wrong with this show as it stands right now going by the first episode.

Yeah I can understand people not liking over powered MC, but personally I'd rather have a confident over powered MC that knows what he's doing, than a two rate sissy that doesn't have balls for example Shinji from Evangelion dude's a fucking coward who can't man up when he needs to.

The new series is just films recut with some new footage. Either or.

I don't think the anime will be worth it imho, you could just watch the movies. They're a fun watch.

unless they actually give it a conclusion in the anime. The manga is still ongoing so the movies ended with no conclusion to the storyline whatsoever.

Well the last thing an ongoing series needs is an original ending because they're generally pretty terrible, maybe I'll just read the manga instead

Date a Live S2 1

So first things first.

I didn't like the filler episode.

Sure it give me plentiful amounts of cute Tohka, but it also made her seem much stupider than how she normally acts.

Did not appreciate that.

I do appreciate that added Kurumi scene, no matter short it was.

Thats Tohka in your avy isnt it?
She was always kind of dense and super adorable as a result. Cant expect her to know what life is like, being a supernatural being. Kurimi has no trouble adjusting. She just kills whatever disagrees with her.

Subcribed.

Winter 2014-2015 should have mikakunin S2 + sakura trick S2

Seriously.

oh if this was only true~

I've just finished Hyouka, and the only thing that ending did was produce a void in my heart.

Lots of shows give me that feeling. Normally theres nothing that fills ythe void but in my latest case I finished Full Metal Panic and have the rest of TSR to watch now. Some shows finish and youre just sad because you wanted to stay in that world.

Anything P4 has made post-game is not canon because the protag isn't with the girl I chose. So it immediately transforms into fan-fiction.

Rise is best girl. Don't go hatin'.

There are legitimate story logic and storytelling reasons for Shinji to be the way he is, though, which is more than I can say for, say, the protagonist of Mahouka.

Harsh.

I'm gonna sound like a broken record here, but this episode was really cute. Especially the "nighttime" scene and the "zoo". Also kind of surprised to see them making a new ED with every episode, they really didn't cheap out with this series.

I guess you'll find out my fine sir. But anyways I'm not trying to hate on Shinji but at times it just gets frustrating when he complains to many times and I just feel like bitch slapping him.

Is that a fucking goose has to be one of the greater reactions for Garzey's Wing.

American anime distributors don't know how to market in anything other than terrible puns.

this is completely true.

Hey guys, I'm back!

What did I miss? Probably not mu-

*sees there are over 2600 new posts since I left*

Well... this might take a while.

Hey Arti
Just catch up at your leisure. Also mondaiji gifs are great.

For this community to transform into reviewers they'd have to lose their specified goggles that makes them look at anime as if it was the best shit ever.

Loli goggles

Yaoi goggles

Moe goggles

Yuri goggles

.....

Spoiler

Girls Doing Jack Shit goggles

i have strong cuteness goggles of a sort but they arent permanently fixed.

Here's a couple of blurry "good ones" I snapped


To be clear, that Patlabor one reads "When there are Criminal Minds on the loose and Unsolved Mysteries to be solved, it's time for Goto's Angels to start Breaking Bad".

Can I get paid to do this?

I have so many of these. Some cringeworthy stuff. Watamote never made me cringe once but reading these blurbs on the packaging makes me curl into the fetal position.

 

[Branduil]

Well, I'm not going to watch Mahouka, so I probably won't.

But a feeling of intense frustration is what Shinji is supposed to be evoke. It's on purpose.

Yeah , if i have to choose , i know what i'll prefer.

oh if this was only true~

Don't worry i'll make a sacrifice to the almighty god Zoamelgustar and my wish will come true !

I am?

You're not ?

I've seen the original serie , build and rebuild and another thing i don't remember ( haven't seen 1.11,2.22 or 3.33 ) but i think i've seen enough From what i've seen i don't believe that was a legitimate reason for what shinji was or the way he acted.( unless i'm missing a spectacular twist in those movies i haven't seen.)

 

[BassForever]

Garzey's Wing is truly the perfect storm of bad animation, bad dubbing, bad story, bad pacing, and bad basically anything you can expect from an anime. I don't want to imagine it with good VA either Japanese or English would ruin the magic

Gochuumon wa Usagi Desuka - 01

Also anime logic :

Anyway , this anime is going to be quite difficult to stay calm with , the 3 girl are inherently Skill focused and their chemistry is quite good.

8.5/10 Must watch.

Normal 14 year old have all legit reason to freaked out and snap like Shinji in the nightmare he got into.

But 16 year old is super-secret magic agent and have sister that want his thing so bad is certainly just another LN wankfantasy.

The Japanese dialogue isn't that much better. It just has a register and intonation appropriate for what's being spoken. A disaster like Garzey's Wing doesn't happen just because of localization.

Oh, and Aya Hisakawa as Hassansansan.

 

[Gazoinks]

Learn and Laugh With Gintama 94

New avatar achieved.

Oh and I guess things happened in this episode. The opening was pretty great. Gintama's one of the few anime (shows in general, really) I've seen that can pull off meta humor really well. Plus it was educational!

Otherwise though, this episode was surprisingly serious. I suppose it's about time Madao got one of 'em! Dude could use a break.

[ZachDeKoromaru]

First impressions of the dub voices for Date a Live are not good. But I'm going to at least try and reserve my final judgement until the crucial scenes for the cast (Tohka's date with Shido, Kurumi going apeshit).

This however I despise greatly.

This is as bad as Funi's blurb about Strike Witches winning the war on pants (they're not panties)!

I, uh, think somebody took over the Nisekoi home page in advance of tomorrow's episode.

edit: she also hijacked a good amount of the animate.tv home page too.

This girl is the second best girl after Tsugumi, I can feel it in my nutbladder.

It's the combination of Tomino's stilted nonsense at its most laughable and the truly rock-bottom dub that elevates Garzey to unequaled heights.

 

[Dresden]

Even with his reasons it still doesn't make him likeable.

It's one thing to like him, another to at least empathize with his situation and his character. That's kinda what makes him a character and not just a power fantasy.

 

[Branduil]

I feel like the first scene in EoE makes it pretty clear what Anno's point with Shinji's character is.

Humanity Has Declined 1

Ah, this is really cute. A bit unsettling with its theme of starvation, but cute and saccharine nonetheless.

....

Holy shit! That came out of nowhere!

This show is absolutely refreshing and unique. Tsuritama is another one. These are so rare but I treasure when they get made.

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

Man, whenever classical music is playing in an anime good things are NEVER happening.
Psycho-Pass does a damn good job of presenting it's dystopian world and telling the viewer how things work. Characters are likeable and understandable, antagonists (the ones so far) are good, and the cases are interesting. The main character, Akane, seems a bit incompetent and uninformed for being top of her class in literally everything but it's a minor complaint.
One thing this show seems to love to do is have characters quote from a famous piece of literature, or mention something a famous philosopher like Plato said once. I'm not sure if any of it means anything or if they're just trying to fill time with cool sounding dialogue, but whatever

Spoiler

that scene at the end of episode 11 was great though

I really wish I watched this show while it was airing, and I learned about halfway through a 11 episode, 1 hour each re-cut was airing in the Summer. I doubt anything will be much different though.
Also I'd like to give props to the OP and ED because they are damn good.

Spoiler

Yes i know OP 2 is godly

Spoiler

I just hope this show doesn't go full retard like some people have told me because I'm really liking it
