What makes you say that? I genuinely can't tell an upscale from a screenshot, so I'm curious.

Fairy Musketeers 16-18
Liked getting Briar Rose's backstory. Her parents are really farmers more than they are rulers. It's one of the more humble depictions of elves I've seen in fiction. Their ears make Nerine's look small. I think the SD-ish character design has something to do with that. The clover in your heart thing was a little cheesy, but it's a kids' show, so I can't fault it entirely for messages like that. It was all about getting Princess Miyukichi her confidence back.
I figured out the twist of episode 17 as soon as Souta went into the mirror. The clues were obvious. The story happened 1,000 years ago, and the girl's black hair only really resembles one character in the show.
Nice Town of the Week, though.
18 was what I was talking about earlier with Date A Live. Those music videos were obviously there to sell the character song albums. But I love character songs, so I'm cool with it. The return of Hamelin and the Bremen Musicians was welcome, too. It was a fun little one off, and, though not produced by Toei, kinda reminded of the G3 Princess episode of Go-Onger.
Zukyu~n!

So is even the main villain a tragic heroine?

Ah right, I forgot that Viz shows were on there. Too bad, because it's like the one service that's US only. lol
From their Facebook post, response to a fan question:

I mean, whether or not you believe it'll come to pass is up to you, but at least they claim they're trying!
The ED is definitely the worst part of Escaflowne.

This was a pretty good anime. You can tell that Gareth Edwards really gets Godzilla, and he gives us one of the best depictions of the king of monsters ever. Most of my criticisms would be related to stuff that could have been done better, rather than things that are legitimately bad. Basically, it would have been a better film if
was the main character. The film in particular drags from
. But the parts before and after that are golden.

For all the big and small gripes I may have with how they handled the actors and the characters they play, it still gets how to portray giant monsters wreaking havoc on various cities well with its great sense of scale and buildup to a lot of great moments, so it all works out in the end.
But really, we need more Cranston in anime whether it's an english dub or him speaking japanese. lol

That was the best episode so far, which isn't saying much as it was still pretty weak. People floating in space and blood floating in space always looks cool, and our MC was not in the episode outside of the first 30 seconds which made things a lot better.

One Piece poisoned that well.
I found Genei as the first choice scrolling down the list, as well as Haruna from KoreZom, the entire cast of Vividred Operation and Madoka... there are a few.

I think I couldn't have been clearer with what I meant by pirates.
I want Pirates of the Caribbean-senpai not Captain Tom Hanks-kun

Don't you mean lollies?
Dammit, I knew I botched it some way.
Must be some crappy masters if the provided image is actually what Viz's release will look like.
Maybe Toei didn't keep them in good shape? Could be the best we can get out of them.
Wouldn't that be a laugh. Retroactive QUALITY.

You want Pirates, watch One Piece. I mean it has pirates with deep character development, even a ship gets character development.
Viz just backpedaled on Twitter; they're now saying it's from the Japanese remaster. Upscale confirmed?

More like they weren't supposed to let slip there was a Japanese BD until the official announcement
That would be ideal! I'll hold onto that bit of hope for now.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
ILL BUY ALL OF IT. GIVE IT TO ME.
Fairy Tail 182
A showcase for Lucy, Yukino and the celestial spirits. After last week's stalling for time, this one was at least fun. I knew as soon as the whirlpools hit that Aquarius was coming, even if she won't get to do anything until next week. Pisces' true form was pretty neat. I thought it was odd that they weren't humanoid like most of the spirits, but that answers that. Got a few laughs from Natsu's fight, too. Collateral damage is just something that happens for him. Not the sharpest tool in the shed.

Annnnd that's pretty much the entire problem. One Piece pretty much monopolized the entire Pirate "genre" in anime. Nobody can make another anime about pirates and avoid it being compared to One Piece.

Excellent introduction to the opening. Very :SDBurton. Too bad the actual episode sort o f lacked that element. Go Origami.

Man, anime in the west has been on a roll with the classics hasn't it?
First the CardCaptor Sakura announcement and now Sailor Moon!
What other classic anime is left to get this treatment?

I don't want a shonen show that happens to be set in a pirate-like setting. I want nitty gritty pirates. I'll take a romanticized Pirates of the Caribbean-like anime if I have to. Maybe what I want truly is for anime to leave its comfort zone.

Because its another example of how a good thing can be ruined with forced drama and romance, worst movie this year so far.
Only good part was Interstellar trailer and Into the Storm.
I wouldn't mind if Berserk and Trigun got Blu-Ray releases over here.

When was Pirates and Romance a thing, unless your talking about the sea and adventure as a pirate being romanticizing.
