I retract that statement. You dun goofed !
And clearly didn't pay attention in your biology classes either.
I did have a general and as it turned out, correct idea of what's going to happen. Ending went much farther than I expected it though.
Thanks to that bravery, SD carved out a very special place in my heart !
School Days 11-12
Makoto went into goddamn harem overdrive ...
From about episode 6 and till the last moment I took it for granted that
it will be Kotonoha who will deliver the final judgement, so this turn of events took me surprise. Not to mention the amazing confrontation that happened after that.

What a terrific show. It's worth slogging through the first half for those three last episodes.

I haven't heard anything about an s3. Studio 8 is too busy cashing in on Love Live. As good as the Horizon BDs did (I think around 20k per volume), that doesn't necessarily translate to another season. It's almost been two years since s2 ended as well, so chances are only getting slimmer.
It's a shame too, because a 3rd season would have a lot of fun stuff.
Exactly. And even moreso we have to take into account also the roles inside the structure of the studio that many times go uncredited; in the same way the board of directors on many studios (like in their former home GAiNAX) influenced decisions later affianced by the project directors, Mr. Ōtsuka as head of the studio has a hands-off supervising approach on much of what they work on, as well as Mr. Yoshinari having an actual studio's lead animator role inside TRIGGER Inc., (with this position since at least early 2013) surely providing additional input in general. In the end, the kind of management of a recently started company like this one (specially in a creative environment like Japanese animation offers) isn't as compartmentalized as many might think it could be.
Yep! Basic plot guidelines and structure as part of the pre-production is the habitual and logical path, but scriptwriting follows deadlines close to the very beginning of the production runtime for the project, to be followed by subsequent scenario amendments and storyboard re-workings. In some real cases, plot & scenario have been finalized just about one month and-a-half before actual animation production. On episodic works this is many times replicated for each episode, so a script for an episode further along the series doesn't even have to be finished by the time it has begun airing (their own KILL la KILL or a previous project many of them helped to create like TTGL are fine examples of that, although TTGL had in comparison a very healthy head-start of three to four months worth of episodes' scenario & storyboards practically complete and animation production being in-process since the moment the first episode aired per Tadashi Hiramatsu words, but overall its second half was mostly unfinished including the basic scenario for the final episode until mere days before the series premier!).
Apparently they didn't even had a early plot premise decided for it until April of this year, so it is possible there wasn't anything scrapped and maybe just the original scenarios were pitched, to be followed by the search of a proper financing scheme that could support those.

Also, did you like the boat?

I would recommend it. The anime was a good adaptation, but cut out a lot of explanations for characters, factions, and history. You can also check out Owari no Chronicle, which takes place thousands of years before Horizon, and explains why the world is the way it is. No anime for that one though, although there was a short teaser trailer that turned out to be an April Fools joke.

It's a recap episode. The writing thing was mildly interesting, and... uh... the music was good? Not a whole lot else to say
You know that the nice boat is a reference to something else that didn't happen in the show itself, right?

Really? They mentioned throwing the script out in late May so I thought they must of have had something prior to that. I guess you could pump out a script in a month though.

I'm surprised you watched the whole thing. (Did you watch the whole recap? haha)
The second part might start a bit slow, but where it ends up is the greatest thing ever.

Looks good too, Kikuchihara, Yoneyan, and Miwa designs are just as I imaginged. Now if we get Izumi.
Dem Toei two frames of animation per second.

Well, as I said earlier,did nothing wrong at least. Just about the only one who didn't eitherKokoro Katsura
Yeah, SD may have the most despicable cast I've seen in anime yet.
Also, did you like the boat?
Very much so. I hope it sinks along with its inhabitants though.

How much can change in 7 years.
Things seem fine on the surface, but there's various problems brewing, and then the warnings of the old beaten enemy was found to be true. Surprising new enemy too.

It's funny, you can make Nanoha the killer in a horror series without affecting her personality too much.
It's unfortunate that it seems like School Days is the only List anime these days. Well, that and occasionally Yami.
RIP AnimeGAF.
You didn't expect sexism after the OVA killed the gf in the first five minutes, followed by a post-mortem incestuous rape flashback?

Like I would subject myself to the OVA.

Terror in Resonance - 11 END
The show finally looked good again, but it really felt it needed more time to properly uncover its events in the second half. The first half was pretty boring and dull.
Really hard to care about anything that happens, overall.
Oh well, OST of the year.

I actually liked the first half more than the second half. I thought that everything up to Five's introduction was pretty great. She really ruined the atmosphere in the series. That being said, the last episode was great. It's just a bit frustrating, since I feel that the series could have been something truly special. In the end, I feel that it's not terrible, but it's not great like I thought it was when it started out.

Can't really say much except we get introduced to a lot of new characters and there will be a lot more later. This episode was adapted from 5 chapters so we could probably reach volume 9 of the manga by the end. And the censorships may even pass Tokyo Ghoul levels of outrageousness.
Expect a lot of deaths in the next episode because the ride is just getting started.
Happy Birthday to all (even though this triplet precisely doesn't seem to post that much nowadays... maybe they don't notice us, man)!

I meant the first and last halves of the episode not the show as a whole.

Congrats!
Oh, sorry. I misinterpreted your post. Yeah, the first half was a little slow, but I still liked the build-up there. The finale was great, I thought.
Happy birthday!
It just looks and sounds like racism/sexism, no doubt.
All on the same day? Alts confirmed.

School Days is a fine show but there are truly so many more interesting titles to found on The List.

People should definitively check out Garzey's Wing.
No it seems like you understood this series perfectly.

Not the outcome anybody wanted.
The full story has come to light as well.
Oh, and these are the slow parts? Wut?

I wouldn't mind watching a list show that's 6 episodes or less.

You made it through with your sanity intact (presumably). I applaud your accomplishment.
Its worse than Jojo tv censorship.
You literally can't see anything.
Its a joke.

Check out Garzey's Wing then. Only 3 episodes. Remember to watch it dubbed.
This is obviously an extension of the show. You are supposed to hate the black bars.
Happy Birthday, doods!

As motherly as Emiya is, how she just appears out of nowhere in thin air (in this case school rooftop) only to want stalk her kids "just because," is kinda creepy...
Looks like we have a fight on our hands that will span the next two episodes, heh.

"What" indeed. I can't see anything in that at all.

I really don't see how this is a surprise considering how violent this series is. It was definitely gonna get censored so yeah. Even if it's unnecessary on some scenes.

When did anime get taken so seriously?
Censored to the point where its literally a whole screen of white and black?
What's the point? You can't even tell what is happening.
Its just a confusing mess.
