Winter 2012 Anime Thread of Roundcats Up in This

I just finished watching the press conference. That was fucking crazy. Bandai is definitely banking HEAVILY on Code Geass in 2012 when it comes to the otaku market. I guess they realized that they didn't really have anything else, since Gundam AGE is for the wrong demographic and already tanking. Lol.

I was about to say, it seems like they're banking quite heavily on this myriad arrangement of properties being successful. That seems a little...optimistic. Talk about putting all your eggs in er, a variety of baskets that all have the same name attached to them? That doesn't really work too well as an analogy.
 
You know Jexhius, we have a thread for this now.
So you do.
Guity crown ruined code gease for me, watch ep 1 of Cg then watch GC ep1 felt like I watched the same shit(both bad but gc being worse), I had enough of “in world where japan has been taken over, a highshool kid meets a mysterious girl who gives him powers” for a life time.

Unable to watch code gease after gc.

Considering how specific that premise is I don't imagine you'll be witnessing that many shows that feature it. I find it pretty hard to get tired of a premise after only two shows share it, but I guess you've been damaged pretty badly by your experiences.

Isn't that also the premise of Bleach and Kurokami? Well, minus the conquered Japan part.

Well that doesn't count then! Cwarrior was extremely specific about the premise!
Bear in mind it's all as cosmic sees it according to cosmic's own preferences. I'm high on the list because of all the bonuses I got from bickering with him despite all the things I do that go the other way.

You said something about One Piece, didn't you!
 
After the things you've said about Rebuild's CG animation I don't know if you can be trusted.

Rebuild's Evas, Panty & Stocking's almost... everything, Fate/Zero's Berserker, and Akito's Alexander are all good CG! That's my story and I'm sticking to it! You won't break me.

It's more the massive amount of ellipses you use in IRC than our bickering. Kind of makes it seem like excessive use of "SMH" which is pretty monocle itself.
 
Guilty CroHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA - 12

Gai is... Gai is...

And then its attempts of :firehawk at the end was.

Oh lordy lord, I needed that.
 
Utena 35-36

DAT VEHICLE COMBO

So much FABULOUSMAX smeared over everything. The final dual with Touga was ridiculously awesome.

My reaction to the end of episode 36 was the same as the characters:

...and now time to go in to the final 3 episodes full of nothing but hopeless fear.
 
Guilty Crown 12: This was awful, and I am usually one to fist pump at
anime sisters going incestual
. I cannot even explain what it was that was so stupid about this episode. It's like I am watching a potpourri of feces and puke and piss and maybe some nsfw substances from all the people fapping at this crap.

I'm dropping this show. For the second time today. Why do you keep lying to me GAF?

I need some good animu like Utena to wash away the taste of Shitty Crown. You sir, have it great.
Steroyd missed the best/worst part of episode 12:

After CRYSTAL CANCER APOCALYPSE killed hundreds and Gai sacrificed himself for Shu, entrusting him the fate of Japan, the next thing the show decides to do is... A SCHOOL FESTIVAL.
Did you just link me to 4chan? lol
 
Yuri pandering is worst of all. *puts on shoujo-ai/yuri monocle*

We can never be friends, you and I. :(

Episode 22.

Thanks. This now gives me a goal to work towards!

Aren't casters only girls?

Holy shit, duckroll is a girl?!

You need to watch Fate/Zero, stat.

So much so I unitentially dropped it, and never came back to it. I need to rectify that.

Similar story with Occult Academy now that I reminisce.

Nothing wrong with dropping Occult Academy.
 
It's my most watched Oshii movie! I'm listening to the OST right this very second!

Speaking of which...

Je t'aime

Starring not only a basset hound but also (SPOILER!)
a leftover android extra from a GitS movie
wandering around in a desolate, uninhabited locale (I know, I'm getting excited just thinking about it!), I thought this looked pretty good and had pretty nice direction aside from the horrible music choice which nearly ruined it. If there was an extra tidbit post-credits, Sky Crawlers-style, someone should tell me because I had to turn it off because my ears couldn't take it. OK, the music wasn't THAT bad, but it did kinda tank my enjoyment and certainly could have been a lot better.

Can't fault it for lack of basset hounds, tho.

GLAY is the only reason it exists, though. It's literally just a glorified video they asked Oshii to direct for them.
 
Looking at that Akito PV now and the CG does look rather bad. The fight choreography and stuff certainly looks pretty awesome but all the while I keep thinking how much better it'd look traditionally animated.
 
Thermae Romae 1

Hmmm, so the
creation of modern Japanese baths is thanks to a time loop after some Roman dude got sucked into a drain and ended up in modern Japan.
Good to know!
