hell i'll send them 50 boxes of mi goreng
Daikichi is quite clearly the more interesting and relateable character
You're gonna love the end of this.

Interrupting their second kiss.
Started slow and picked up speed. Pretty good episode all around. I look forward to the uncensored episode though.

I watched nine episodes and I couldn't stand it. Didn't even want to finish it.

Why yes, I'm positive I could find it easier to relate with a grown man than a small girl. Doesn't make me like her character any less.

Har, har. Missed the Panda and bunny heads in the air at my nursery.
Aah,
That second-half. Feelin' all Furby inside (without the ugly).

Aah,
late worker, should have seen that coming. Of course, rooting for him to find a way to endure the balance.

Oh please, if you want examples of silly names Gundam 00 has gems like Healing Care, Revive Revival and Anew Returner. These are actual characters' names.

Epic, or rather fabulous max? Scene with Kanba was pretty amazing possibly one of the favorite so far
Tiger & Bunny 21/22
One of the few anime that can agitate me intensely than shock me the next.

Most in the epsiode were kind of dull. Airship with servants entertaining the princess had its moments. The ending song was nice, probably my favorite of the anime. Green Green
Steins Gate 21/22
How are there still three episodes left?

That felt like a touching ending, touching and really emotional, but otp seemed to be canon. Though what does that make Mayushii? And did that imply that Kurisu is the one who was always in the ED?
Regulus Tera
Romanes Eunt Domus
Chihayafuru 21: Team Taichi muthafukkas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I get the feeling that both teams are in for a disappointment.
At the end of the day this is still based off a girls' manga. There will be a conclusion one way or the other.
You know about the game right? It has endings for everyone.
I just hate her braids. I want to rip them off and light them on fire.
A manga that isn't finished though.
Really? Crap. Then we're getting a non-ending ending.
Woooooo

I think I've pinpointed the elements of the visual style that have been bothering me. First, as the above picture shows, when a character is in shadow it looks like they have sunburn. Second, the line dividing shadow from light on flesh can be too sharp and the contrast too great.
But besides that, I do have to complement the attractive cinematography and storyboarding. Look at the shadow directing our eyes across the empty space on the left to the smaller space that Tetsuro occupies on the right, where he stands out against the black background. His placement shoved off to the side reflects the physical and emotional tiredness that he is feeling at this point in the narrative.
The visuals contributed a great deal to creating the appropriate atmosphere for the romantic drama. It helps that the editing this episode was much better than the last, with careful balancing of tone between linked scenes. I'm glad the series has managed to keep the melodrama low-key, even with the tearful confessions going on. It lets me keep my suspension of disbelief intact.
I would never underestimate Japan's capacity for coming up with goofball names.

I don't know if I should be, but I was a little impressed by the nudist revelation.

A cute mini-episode.
Next time I'm cutting the corners, I totally calling it "Grown up ingenuity"
Hmm, might have to check it out if all this "Magic Girl rough play" gallery keeps up.

The best we can hope for is the strong teasing of a canon pairing in the final episode.
Alright, we're back on. Team Taichi goooooooo!

Finally! I'm not in complete darkness anymore, haha.
Aw, Kyubey, stop eating that rice.
And oh, that's why she's that awesome.
All this puts Pretty Cure in perspective, hahaha.

Can't say I didn't see that coming. Look at that face.
He's no Kero alright.

It was pretty obvious that if Sayaka didn't purify her Gem she'd end up becoming a Witch, but I wasn't expecting that to be the purpose of it all.
And oh, that's why she's that awesome.
Time travelers are always awesome.

Not the most entertaining or memorable of episodes but the one with the stuff in the tree was my favorite followed by manga.

That would kind of annoy me off considering there won't be a 2nd season. I think I would prefer something more neutral.
Anything short of a vision fifty years into the future where Taichi and Chihaya talk about their grandkids and how they named their son Arata will be a TRAVESTY.

That's really a Gundam speciality though - terrible names have been part of the series for some time.

Seriously though, the choice now is either neutral or Team Taichi. Arata-who?

I'm going to assume that there's going to be nothing.
Even at this point, all you really have is the hint that (far, far, off manga spoilers, don't read if you care)
Arata and the Queen get along because she "saves him"
Heck, they haven't even gotten to the part where (more manga spoilers)
they all move up a year and get a new member

Have you watched the movie yet? It's actually pretty good!
So it seems there's a game on /m/ where people would refresh a gundam wiki until they landed on a mech or mobile armor. This would be what they would pilot. The 4chan posting captcha was their pilot's name. It worked surprisingly well. Almost too well.

Some volume 9 spoilers (for reference, the anime is currently at volume 7):

Guy has brock-eyes, I smell a betrayal coming.
Taichihaya's (see, catchy shipping name, shit's on lockdown) offspring: well-adjusted, handsome individuals not necessarily playing a dead game
Araqueen's offspring: plays dead games, is miserable, doomed to work in grocery markets.

Chihaya doesn't even notice that Taichi exists when Arata is around. These are true facts.

I really want to say things, but I know I shouldn't. lol
Also, looking at the pace, Chihayafuru would need another 26 episodes to catch up with where the manga is right now.
What happened to the days when shoujo shows would get 52 episodes greenlit immediately?!

Looks like the Pac-Man anime is going to be a "big deal" for Bandai Namco. This is really kinda weird and fucked up. They're going full steam ahead with a 26 episode full season of a Pac Man CG animation series for 2013. The show will have an insane budget of 600,000 USD per episode. Avi Arad is the adviser for Bandai Namco Holdings on this project, while the show's producer is Rick Ungar, and the writers on the show are Tom Ruegger and Paul Rugg.
Why? Why is this happening? What is possessing them??

Hush. I will have no logic in shipping wars. Also, who would you rather have? The steady hand you're comfortable with? Or the deadbeat loser who just keeps popping up into your life?

How exactly are they going to profit from this? Can you even sell DLC for anime episodes?
