Yeah I can listen to the song. The video is all kinds of strange though.
Hello darkness, my old friend.
Here I'll make it better!

So this is what happens to TAMAKO MARKET when you remove the bird :
I'm up for it
Don't let me down kyoani !

Surprised to see so much interest in Tomako Love Story give the cool reception the show got. But I suppose it can only be better without focus on the talking bird.
wtf is this, i want it
Watch the bird be the main protagonist MGS2 style xD
Really, hosannainexcelsis, why did it had to end like this then? Why didn't just cherish that "10%" you don't find annoying? See, I like the kind of posts I could read from the likes of you, a important part of this all, but I also ain't going to fault the diversity of this thread's interactions just to accommodate any unique way of enjoying such a varied medium like is this one.
You know the real problem; that with people like you going away... were does that leave those of us here who enjoyed posts like yours and now can feel abandoned too? Shall we just also quit or move on to other place instead of expressing ourselves together? It is that kind of attitude what precisely creates the insularity you came here despising, man.
I just, don't get it... it seems to me like you didn't actually have a single good moment on this community along any of us to toss it all away in that manner now... that kind of makes everything, every time here feel like it is useless...

Got to say them ara ara's are really a defining trait of Kurumi. But that's the thing that makes her the best and that voice actor which makes the full package.

Nobody can troll people like kojima . kyoani endless eight wasn't even a troll , more like a faithfull adaptation.
That trailer just spoiled the entire film.

Preview pics of Mahouka episode 6

I really been waiting for the fight between Erika and Mibu can't wait. Hope MadHouse animates the scene nicely and the whole action too.

That Penguin Empire song is going to be stuck in my head. With Shoma and Kiriko, I feel we've finally achieved the best representation of mecha and sexuality. The one who gets the Hi-Ero particles welling up within her is Kiriko. She's the one who holds the power in the relationship, yet also stands on equal footing with Shoma. And unlike Kyoko's hesitation, there's a much greater degree of pure and love and respect between them. She still does it because she's horny, but they're mutually horny. And if you're going to do a robot powered by sex, that's how things should be.
Ritz remains as fun as ever, and the show's sense of humor is still landing on most of its jokes. The Mazinger riff by having Daimidaler come out of the pool was pretty cool, and the way the OP theme played at the end this time. It's the same song, but context changes everything.

Not bad .... this isn't even the fight i'm eager to see , but it's good to have decent animation even for the "normal" fights.

Don't tell me the fight your looking forward to is in the 9 school competition arc.
spoilers are overrated

The new character looks to be interesting but this wasn't as funny as the last episode. Still relatively funny overall though

Gundam 00 S2 - 25 END + Series Review
Okay, I'm not gonna lie, that was a pretty badass final battle. It was awesome
To top this bad show off, we have a really rushed ending.
All right, so final thoughts.
I can easily see the complaints people have with this show's second season. The show is all over the place and doesn't have a clear focus on anything.
It's a shame, because somewhere in here lies a legitimately good Gundam show. But the problem here is that there's way too many characters for the show to handle. I normally love shows with lots of characters, but those only work for shows that go on for more than 100 episodes or so. Here, there's too many plot threads to show to resolve and when they do get resolved, it's usually in a really half-assed way.
The final battle between Setsuna and
, a plot point they've been building up for pratically the entire series, is very short and not exactly very fufilling.
The entire enigmatic Wang Liu Mei subplot is never fully explained. It's just spread out in tiny bits and pieces over the course of the show.

Still though, there were quite a few of things I enjoyed about Gundam 00. The first season as I've said before, I think is legit good at least. The designs of the mechs are awesome. The OST (except for Marina's song, ugh) is great. The Gundam fights were also a ton of fun to watch as well. There were also characters I enjoyed a lot too. I ended up tolerating Tiera's character more in the end, he got better. S1 Lockon will always be superior to S2 Lockon. Ribbons Almark was a pretty cool villain as well. Especially with his
But even with that, Gundam 00 S2 is not a show I'd recommend to people who want to see a good mecha. While I didn't hate Gundam 00 S2, it's still pretty dang bad.
All right, movie's next, then I'm finally finished with Gundam 00. This one is apparently the lowest of the low, so my expectations are set.

seeing the remaining Gundam Meisters going all out against the Innovators by themselves, and it was downright epic to see Gundam Exia facing off agasint the 0 Gundam. It's too bad Marina's song had to ruin that moment though. >_<.

got hit with a magic light from Setsuna and now she's suddenly okay and nice again? Da hell is this crap >_<

And here I thought it was a good time for an animation fan like hosannainexcelsis lately; you know, not only for Mushi-shi's comeback but also because of Mr. Maruyama reassuring, mere days ago, the viability of both the Pluto adaptation and (for the nth time) The Dream Machine project completion (http://www.deculture.es/2014/04/30/entrevista-masao-maruyama/).
Of course... and sometimes it is so obvious and usual throughout a whole life that I think you end up not sweating too much about it, and focusing instead on those little "things" and spontaneous everyday pleasures. And little by little is worth it for that alone.

The real question is how good the writing will be, as it's all going to have to hang off of that. I almost feel like I'd be more interested in this if I hadn't seen the TV series, or if no TV series had existed.
That illustration actually fills me with more emotion than the series itself!
Well luckily that particular reason is only briefly touched upon. Mostly the conflict later on is boiled down to
i) resentment that humanity's former "servants" have risen up against them ii) they keep conquering humanity's planets to prevent universal galactic warfare. THE DICKS.
I've seen it twice and there were quite a number of people bewildered by the ending!
I've drawn a diagram which I'll routinely spam whenever the question comes up.
Contains GIGANTIC Patema Inverted spoilers so you have all been warned.
Edit: Also /XX/ is posting again. Good times are here again.

So guys since the visual novel for Fate Stay Night is expensive should I just like watch a walkthrough on YouTube. Or would that be a bad idea.
Jex

I can't speak for Hosanna, but I fear his problems extend beyond anime or the community of posters who participate in this thread. I could well be wrong, but the content and tone of his posts would lead me to believe that the case.
Can't you just wait for the series to come out? Assuming that you want to just experience the story I don't see why watching it on YouTube would be a problem.
Oooh, so that's who Mr. Bushido was.

If you see a trailer that's over three minutes it's best to assume that it's going to spoil major story beats!
I never learn.
AquaWateria
Member
I guess your right since I just want to experience the story.
Can't read the article, but if it says what you say it does then I'm filled with hope. Pluto's one of my favorite manga, and finishing Satoshi Kon's final film is something that simply must happen. I hope we see both of these within a few years.

Perhaps I should have phrased that differently: if you're going to watch a trailer you're probably going to get spoiled 90% of time. Most trailers aren't cut or created in a way that actually interests the audience without divulging major plot points to get the prospective audience interested.
Unless, of course, you happen to watching one of the greatest trailer of all time:

Yeah it doesn't really factor into the Abh's motivation at all. It's just their origin story and the original colony only really is considered in the character's actions when
Lafiel talks about the Abh's original sin with regards to the mother colony

Nice impressions. i share that sentiment too , just too many thing they had to do with those characters and they either didn't have the time nor did they could do something with them.
Marina song ruinned so many things in G00 it's not even funny.
I'd watch several times Awakening of the traillblazer than to see 1 episode of gundam Age again.
Yes it's one of the poorest gundam movies but it still has a gundam vibe that i couldn't get in gundam Age. i enjoyed that movie
Now I feel like finally opening that Bluray tonight.

Expectations now set even lower. In fact, now I'm kind of scared.
I know right? Such a shocking twist!
In all seriousness though, I thought that it was supposed to be obvious. If they seriously thought people would be fooled, then that's just sad. I only spoilered it out of habit.
