lmao. just realized the reason why I stopped watching gundam AGE was because the latest Unicorn eps was so fucking bad.
How has the past month or so of AGE been holding up? Flint might have been one of my fav main gundam duders. Has brains and is for the most part, pretty chill.

Hmm, I may be crossing streams now, having watched/read every form of the property possible, but I never actually caught wind an over-arching theme in Bartender, and I always figured that to be the point; with a job like that comes a varying stories/issues, each having their own theme. Very episodic.
Since the original Aquarion?
The show sounds pretty much like that was - i.e. terrible, but sort-of deliberately so? As long as the music's good I'll probably still watch most of it.
So is Gunbuster Renewal the original series with new/better animation or something? I can't find out any real concrete info.
Also perusing Amazon for Gurren Lagann stuff(need DVD NOW) and they have a surprisingly creepy amount of body pillows on here including 12 year old Nia.

Theme might have been the wrong word to use. Maybe purpose is more appropriate. The last episode felt like a summation on the purpose of the Bartender and the whole series for me.

I said that the manga and anime had completely different stories from eachother. So is the manga more like the VN and the anime's its own thing, or is each of the three different? I don't know anything about the VN's story.
Dunno actually. I haven't actually tried the manga yet. I'm not going to go any further in anything else until I finish the VN. I did only the first ep of the anime, and it naturally shared a few things, but was completely different otherwise.
It was made for people who like quality idoru anime.

Tenchi: Ryo-ohki Episode 1
This OVA series of Tenchi looks crazy good on blu-ray. Sound is great too.
I was lamenting the fact that there wasn't an english dub track, since I liked back in the day (or was just used to it).
But then I heard Ryoko's voice. Dat Voice.
Also Dat Background Music.
I was never a fan of Ryoko when I was watching the multiple series back in the day, but I think I am one now.

THE IDOLM@STER Relations
This is a manga which was issued a few years ago around the time of the original 360 release of the original game. So it follows the timeline and character appearances of the first series of games, now retconned as "1st Vision". It focuses mainly on the anime Producer-san's eerie doppelganger and Miki, who was a new character on 360 at the time. Speaking of Producer-san, he looks so much like his anime counterpart that it's not hard to guess that the anime staff got the ideas for his appearance from his manga appearances. Either that, or in Japan all idol producers are tall and slim, have slightly unkempt hair, and wear glasses. And suits, they always wear suits even though it seems that being an idol producer means you get quite a workout every day running from place to place.
As for Miki, she doesn't look much different between "1st Vision" and "2nd Vision" other than she was given bangs in 2V. The other idols make cameos throughout the story but this manga is pretty much about Producer-san and Miki, hence the name. Relations is Miki's de-facto image song, something you can see towards the end of the anime. Well, it's also kind of about Chihaya, Iori, and Makoto, but not really. Haruka has a recurring cameo role as the host of her own radio show, something alluded to but obviously not really explored in Xenoglossia.
Really I kind of want to read THE IDOLM@STER Break! for the lulz, Relations seems like a straightforward alternate-universe story and it's not nearly as exciting as I might have hoped.

sounds like the best show ever
Well, to not waste a post, I'll post this:
I only recognise Misato Fuken, Hisako Kanemoto and Marina Inoue. Don't know the rest.
Nearly every monster-of-the-week format you see in Sailor Moon was invented for the anime. The manga DOES have a few youma, though.
Ai Orikasa sounds so much better than they raspy voice the dub gives her.
Aquarion Evol is like the original Aquarion except downgraded. The only apt comparison available!

Asks questions so Ezalc doesn't have to
Gurren Lagann 27
Wow.
Using galaxies as weapons, omg that was fucking AWESOME
TENGEN TOPPA GURREN LAGANN!
WHAT DID I JUST SEE WITH MY EYES HOW MANY MECHS OH GOD
NIA. I totally get why it had to happen but ;( make me sad
Simon :bow,He didn't become Kameda, he was his own person through and through.
Top 3 anime for me, holy wow. It had literally everything I want from an anime in terms of story, characters, art, animation, and general what the fuck is that moments. Pure magic, bro-fist to all my blood brothers.
Final words: JUST WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK I AM?
Damn awesome series. Glad you liked it! ^_^
Show is long, but yes they don't mess around too much. But I love the wacky hnnnnng hijinks! ^_^
'cause then the book would be 10 pages and suck. ;-P
Well, to not waste a post, I'll post this:
I dont know what this is, but chopper and pikachu should win by default
Holy shit.
Best reference ever. Fucking fitting too.
I remember that scene whats the reference though?
Seiyuus who have voice this characters.
It's a reference to Sengoku Basara - Date Masamune says it a lot (in Engrish). He rides a horse with handlebars in a manner much like that scene.
Well, to not waste a post, I'll post this:
What is this the hnnngh grid?
I recognize a bunch of those...
Also, I made it through 4 episodes of CCS before falling asleep and calling it a night.
The marathon will continue today until tonight when there is a college football championship game, which my state's college team is in, so of course I have to watch that.
You forgot Kazuya Nakai who also voices Date Masamune too which is why it's fucking fitting.
Smile PreCure.
My guess - new PreCure season has started, Japanese fan is showing a chart of previous memorable roles for the seiyuu in question.
OH i see the layout now
I think the name subconsciously put me off that one

Gintama 241
I probably should make Sengoku Basara one of my next viewings.
Quite the Angel.
There was a while twenty seconds dedicated to the Shinsengumi in the opening. If I didn't already know I'd suspect a Shinsengumi arc was on the horizon.
I believe I've seen enough clips of the show when I compared it to the Gintama parody.
I find the Bartender opening never gets old.

Most of the time boobs don't look good in anime either.
This is an amazing gif that will never get old.
Just a few days until AKITO is fully revealed. Are we excited?!
Those limbs look nowhere near long enough for me to get really excited. I'm just gonna attribute this one to bad art.

Boobs, booby AND panty shots, demon chicks, a protagonist that has nothing but boobs on his mind
. He really does have an awesome alarm clock lol. Might continue watching it, might drop it. I don't know yet.

Looks like Gonzo run out of budget already. Seeing as it's usually the case with them I wonder why I'm even surprised by it.
Anyway, this time it's a
It's a rather important episode so it makes me a sad panda that it's plagued by QUALITY.
Next week:
[Mirai Nikki ep. 13]
A fanservice episode? In my Mirai Nikki? It's more likely than you think!
I'd write that shit is about to hit the fan, but I know that the real shit hitting the fan moments will come much later. Still, awesome episode was awesome and I can't wait for the next one.
[Bodacious Space Pirates ep. 01]
I like the mother already. "Your father was a space pirate. Hmmm, I forgot to tell you that? No biggie." lol
"Legal pirates." That sounds so wrong XD
This show will either be totally awesome or totally boring. Not sure which yet. Will follow.

Wait what is this? Is this a prequel or something to Geass? I thought there was some manga version or whatever depicting a squad in Europe. Is this an adaptation of that?
It's not really a prequel, nor is it based on any manga. It's a new original anime series in the Geass universe set at around the time of the first series, except in the European front. It's directed by Kazuki Akane, and has been in development for over 2 years.
