Those wheels are huge.

But that's the way you like em, right? Girls with big wheels?

Steins:Gate 6 - 14

Holy shit, I know many people told me that it will get good after 6 episode, but no one ever told me it will be get this good.

I just hope that somehow the story will conclude without plot hanger, somehow I lost faith in Japanese writer to make a nice ending.

I can see people stop watching after 6 episodes, since they spent so much time just to introduce new character, setting up the theme, and storming the viewers with confusing elements. This is kinda like opposite of Penguin Drum in term of pacing, start out pretty crappy and confusing, then get godly as it go. Now I am ashamed to not play the original VN.

With Fate/Zero and Steins:Gate, I guess I can at least say that last season was amazing. May be I judge too fast, since I still haven't finish the whole thing.

Pirate 02

Grrrr... how can someone made Nadesico make this... I guess I will watch one more for the sake of false hope. Sooo, what else are there to watch in Winter 2012?

 

[Dresden]

But that's the way you like em, right? Girls with big wheels?

No, they seem threateningly independent with such huge wheels.

She definitely wants Shoe... I mean... Shu, but locks up her feelings behind her caged heart. Also I like it in bakemono too.

damn.

Persona 4 15

I will be severely disappointed. Kids love

Amazing. At least they're going all out.

You really can't expect another show as good as Nadesico. That was made during the golden age.

With a quick glance, it looks as if charlie's rocking a gold chain, and that is so cash. lol.

Well, something has to let her feel like she's standing on her own two fe-

Oh.

 

[Jex]

But Ergo Proxy isn't interesting or entertaining.

That's why it's true hazing - the recipient just gets bored, not accidentally entertained.

 

[jman2050]

Wait did someone say Glass Fleet?

Come for the Michel and Cleo, stay for the Vetti and kugishota.

Niiniigami SS+ 3

You can do it Rihoko. Bring down the tyrannical friendzone for childhood friends everywhere!

Bakemonogatari 15

OK, fuck everything else. Why in God's name couldn't this be an action series? Or like, play up the action by 100 times or so? I was already kinda hoping for it from the Suruga Monkey episodes, but saw that the series wouldn't go full hog into that direction. After this though? I'd be up for some vampire/supernatural war stories just based on that short clip from Koyomi's first encounter with them. Please tell me this is getting touched on somehow? Please?

You have to understand that SHAFT have no budget, no time and not enough animators. They can't do that kind of thing!

This discussion of rape is probably the worst one we've ever had and that is saying something.

People say we're just repeating ourselves in this thread, but no-one has gone there before. Thankfully.

 

[hosannainexcelsis]

Thermae Romae 3-4

This is turning out to be weirder than I expected it to be. Also, Japan has some crazy toilets.

 

[jman2050]

Niiniigami SS+ 3

We need some sort of school curriculum program to prepare growing children for the friendzone. No self-respecting person should be subjected to that without advance warning!

 

[Jex]

Kill Me Baby's OP is strangely addictive. At first I thought it was terrible, but I think there's a mysterious force behind the beat that makes you eventually like it.

So it's like Chiaki Omigawa's voice?

 

[cajunator]

where does all that ridiculous money that Shaft shows make actually go? they are one of the more successful studios.

 

[Jex]

Yeah, I dunno what's wrong with my sarcasm detector today. I'm gonna call it "Work was shit today" and use that excuse.

Mm. That sounds good.

...

... I need some cute. I'm gonna go watch some Miku.

What's your name, cajunator?

where does all that ridiculous money that Shaft shows make actually go? they are one of the more successful studios.

It goes to Aniplex, not to SHAFT.

[Branduil]

Wouldn't true hazing involve Angel Beats then?

Since not only is it boring, but it also damages your brain and vision.

 

[Jex]

If by better you mean jumped off a cliff then yeah.

Some would call that better.

 

[Femmeworth]

It goes to Aniplex, not to SHAFT.

Must resist pun.

 

[Regulus Tera]

Yeah I can't watch even ten minutes of Guilty Crown 13. It was stupid before, but now it just is boring.

 

[Jex]

heheheheeheheheHEHEHEHEHE

Schadenfreude sure works quickly.

I don't see the relation between GC and the E7 at all...lol

Well, you see, they're both animated and they both contain mecha.

 

[Thoraxes]

So it's like Chiaki Omigawa's voice?

Sadly, some people haven't broken the threshold to understand why people like myself love her voice more than anything in this world.

I still hate Kill Me Baby's OP.

 

[cajunator]

What's your name, cajunator?


It goes to Aniplex, not to SHAFT.

He's a Saints fan. We stick together, man.

Arjuna 12

Spoiler

An invisible monster that devours stuff made by petrochemicals and resonates with lay lines or some shit.

This is easily the dumbest and most contrived end-of-the-world scenario I've ever seen.

Well, it's not like the world's core stopped rotating. In terms of the 'stupid crap' that populates the whole series, it's relatively mild.

 

[Solune]

We need some sort of school curriculum program to prepare growing children for the friendzone. No self-respecting person should be subjected to that without advance warning!

Persona 4 15

Charlie is a sexy beast.

?

 

[zeroshiki]

I don't get the Omigawa hate. Her voice is at the very least distinctive and not the high pitch squeaking that has become the norm nowadays.

 

[Jex]

School Days 10

Spoiler

Party went as expected. Quite the haunted look to end the ep though.

Nearly there!

I don't detect nearly enough suffering. You're no fun.

 

[cajunator]

I like Chiakis voice. Although I much prefer Hnnnngzawa's and goddess Haruko momoi.

 

[Regulus Tera]

Well, you see, they're both animated and they both contain mecha.

Nia and Eureka have funny-looking hair too!

 

[Instro]

Well, you see, they're both animated and they both contain mecha.

When you put it like that, its as if they are the same show!

Earth Maiden Arjuna 13 END

See this dude? Yeah, that smug douchebag. Thanks to this fucking piece of shit over 120 million people had to starve and suffer. All of this shit could have been avoided if he just explained to people what the hell was wrong and what was going on in a calm and collected manner instead of the whimsically metaphorical shit he liked to spout to others. Clearly his hatred of words is thanks to his complete and utterly attrocious people skills.

I don't think you understand. Chris IS the Earth. We don't need the Earth to tell us what is wrong with it - it's obvious. We just have to pay attention,

 

[cajunator]

I don't detect nearly enough suffering. You're no fun.

His NFL team went 3-13 this year. I think he's just numb at this point.

School Day 11

How awkward!

Spoiler

Busted up laughing during the pregnancy reveal.

This isn't how it's supposed to go.

 

[Hitokage]

What kind of sick bastards would put someone through that travesty?

It's a wonder how short series got a reputation for higher quality.

I used a bidet for the first time five years ago when I went to Madrid. I haven't been happy since.

Clearly School Days broke Narag's mind.

School Days 12

Spoiler

Sekai deserved better but that ending was amazing!

I need to come to terms with the notion I like terrible shows.

Now to go back and read some of these impressions I'd missed out until now.

You monster!

 

[cajunator]

I might actually enjoy Yami.
It looks sufficiently cute and I'm pretty shallow and stuff.

guilty crown 13

~*~rip wheelchair~*~ u will be missed

You're saying you prefer it when she can't walk?

 

[Hellsing321]

Amazing. At least they're going all out.

The show is certainly a lot more fun when they do. I shudder to think how they'll handle the rest of the show post Culture fest since thats when all the fun stuff pretty much stops.

 

[Hitokage]

[Jex]

That is my favorite anime of all time.
Such a wonderful show in every single possible way.

It's alright. I think it does drag a bit at times, but apart from that I've got no complaints.

Not that I'd call it "my favourite anime of all time" - I couldn't say that about anything. I probably couldn't even do a top 30 (unordered).

 

[Geneijin]

Inu x Boku SS - 2

Very directionless.

I know, a top 30 would be difficult, although for me Haibane Renmei is at the top and maybe Kino's journey, with everything else fighting the whole way down.

 

[Instro]

I think we have established that a girl who can't escape is....mighty fine indeed.

 

[cajunator]

There's only one way to find out.

Is there a stream of it somewhere?
I havent seen one.
Crunchyroll doesnt seem to have it.
Oh well.
