What was the last good show with a brown girl?

Hmm, Katanagatari. Animated by the same studio that did Steins;Gate, NOT SHAFT. It's only 12 episodes though, I wonder if they tried to fit the whole story in and failed or just did what they felt like doing and then ended it with GO READ THE LNs SUCKERS! Either way, it's probably still better than anything LOLSHAFT did. Maybe I'll look into this one.

I'm sorry, I couldn't decipher this post because of apparent grumpiness!
Also, if you'd consulted Wikipedia harder you might have noticed that each episode is about 50 minutes!

You know, anyone walking into this thread might find that question a tad strange.
We've had worse discussions.
To be fair, you can't throw a rock at this thread without hitting something questionable and/or strange.

Princess :firehawk 06: Once upon a time, there was a shitty DVD release.
Even the title logo didn't match up with the one from the opening ffs.
But this is not that story.
P.S. Mono no aware everywhere up in this bitch.

I would have expected Ahiru to realise the horror of her quest to happen a bit later, not in episode six. In fact, the episode went at great lengths to make the gravitas of the situation stand out. While the formula of the issue of the week was present it was also a more serious story about the frustration at unfulfilled dreams, which in my totally subjective hierarchy of personal issues ranks above being an ugly anteater.
I feel for Ahiru's sanity after this. Not only will she vanish if she ever confesses her love, but she is fated to make the one she holds the most dear suffer by loving him. It's like a fairy tale in the truest sense of the genre.

Do Princess Tutu's confrontations with Mytho's shards occur in the real world or are they an allegory for something else? It's not like magicks don't happen in their town (she can turn into a duck goddammit), but the way they are represented gives them an aura of a "play within a play". It's very effective and alluring, I'd say!

Slam Dunk 56: Very tight episode. The table has been upended, and even the Kainan players were given a bit of flashback time each. The end of this game is proving to be very emotive!
If you didn't watch Michiko e Hatchin then you are part of the problem.

I'm strictly adhering to a one episode per night schedule. I wanna savour this story!
We've already fallen past the Event Horizon. The impermanence of AnimuGAF's morals is something that should be enjoyed because of its inexorability.

I'm sure the tables will go beyond the impossible.
I love it when you break out the big words.
I agree . I guess I should have qualified it as get the first half of season 1. When the series was just Sora and friends learning the craft it was great . Then some gimp felt the series needed a villain.

This season the only thing that I'm sure I will watch is Nisemonogatari and the Nissan Car Advert. However, both of those works promise to be fairly trashy and unwholesome so I suppose I'll have to watch some backlog to cleanse my soul.
Oh, and Natsume S4, but only if it's a marked improvement over the last season. Now that Brain's Base aren't trying to make three shows in one season I'm assuming that the quality will improve inexorably.

Have you considered that that's a dangerous amount of anime? Especially if you're working through your backlog as well.

Sorry, I'm a bit grumpy because I'm returning my new 64" Samsung plasma TV. In the end I couldn't stand the buzzing. So now I have to either live with my old Sony 52" LCD or look into buying a different TV. My only rule with TV buying is that I never go DOWN in size from what I've already owned, and I can't really find anything comparable in size except the considerably more expensive 65" Panasonic plasma, so now I'm looking at one of those 70" Sharp Aquos monstrosities instead. Fucking LCDs, fucking plasmas, what the fuck has East Asia been wasting the last decade DOING when they're supposed to be bringing OLED TVs to the market?!
So, should I watch Katanagatari or not, Jex?

That was a really anticlimactic finale. Last 2-3 episodes were pretty weak really. A blemish on an otherwise great show that I really enjoyed. I'd recommend it to everyone though, its a blast to watch, and it handles the scope of material and large cast quite well.

A present for you all~!
cajunator: OT pities the appearance of AnimeGAF to create the Tampire. Is this the real goal?
i9: Yes. OT can only live mortally on this planet. But, Tampire can live forever with the baka gaijin that lives within its body. Even after 500 billion years have passed... Even after the Earth, Moon, and even the Sun have disappeared, it will still exist as long as one Tampire is alive. Although it will be very lonely... as long as that Tampire still lives...
trejo: That will be the sign that AnimeGAF existed, and it will be preserved forever...?
cajunator: Good-bye, goshujin-sama.

You can't deny the inevitable, I'm afraid.
Looks like Crunchyroll is planning 13 new series overall for the Winter lineup. Any guesses for what they're not going to include?

Eh, I don't know. I enjoyed the series overall, but it really drags in places and those episodes are far too long with lots of talking heads. I don't particularly think you'd enjoy it.

Following the show's established logic... good lord, WHY? WHY?

WHY!?

suzuha's sacrifice saved Mayuri, (For now?) but there's another person that's been having their ticket come up on the chopping block now repeatedly: Makise. He's not noticing her death's because of his focus on Mayuri, but she was the first to die(first ep) and was getting killed there just as frequently as mayuri.

Oh! My Goddess - 6
Megumi looks pretty different in the anime adaptation, more tomboyish but with a brown light attachment.
I hope some of her stories are part of the anime.

If that didn't have Japanese audio in it, it would be worthless because of no Chiaki Omigawa. It's the same reason I dropped $60 on the complete Soul Eater remaster too.
You might have a problem.
That's what everyone tells me, but my blind love of her and her voice overpowers any notions that being wrong about this is a bad thing.
Holy shit! I'm dying here :lol
hmmm...
Have you seen Someday's Dreamers? Yume had awesome hair!
Also a good one for Cajun. Have to believe he's seen it though.
Yes. I own that series too. Adorable. Did you know there is a second season?
Ever since seeing the ED of this I am interested in it. Such a fun song.
There's no such thing as a dangerous amount of anime.
The tampire lives on in all of us.
Well, I think it could potentially be moe.
Don't laugh at this. The japanese voice acting is sometimes so hnnngh I couldnt watch certain shows without it.
There's no problems man, only solutions.
I want a minchi robot >_>
hahaha. damn, now I want one :<
