Yes, we in the Guilty Crown circle are always here to help each other.
Ultimately, both the OVA and the series are about
extreme jealousy and possessiveness
Catgirl always has cat ears, her hacking dock is lol.
I could say do it for hnngazawa, but she doesn't show up enough in the 2nd half.
Yeah...I need to drop everything and go watch this.

We help each other come up with new insults, you mean!
SOLD. where do I sign?
Awww, but I'm quite hooked on watching characters suffer and have breakdowns over jealousy and friendship!
I was hoping after the TV series ends, the OAV could fill the void for me. Guess not.
I'll still check it though.

I'm glad I watched this. The art, animation and battle choreography was a treat to watch. Had to suspend myself a bit for
and the only notable music was the main theme (which I swore I've heard before), but had a good time with the film.
I only first heard of it here, so thanks for the indirect recommendation, people that liked it.

I hope you're not trying to put these two shows in the same box.
It doesn't hurt aliens, it just captivates them.

Deculture!
It resonates feelings in their cold icy hearts they didn't know they had, feeling of love and caring that are otherwise foreign to them. It's like using Confusion in a pokemon battle. Why does it work? How exactly does it work? Nobody knows, it just works.

Holy fuck, that's STILL a plot thread?
I assume it's supposed to be romantic. Besides, naming sports shows has got to suck because you have to somehow evoke the sport while trying to come up with something people would want to at least stop to think about. Maybe they could have called it "Bicycle Kick".

It's more the shock of feeling an emotion they've never felt before.

Now that I have finished the show, I partially agree with your position, though I still like it better than you do.
It's true that there's no reasoning for Toshihiko and Yuka falling in love besides "love at first sight", but that fits with the show's view of love as an irrational, or subrational, carnal desire. It's not the only narrative to think of it as little different than lust. That's not a view that I personally hold, or my favorite view to see portrayed, but I'm not going to dock a show for that philosophical difference alone.
Perhaps it's not the most original direction to take the premise in, but I thought it did a good job of using cannibalism as a symbol for the inner beast in humanity, both with respect to sexual desire and to hatred for others.
Agreed. The story was relatively grounded up to a certain point, then it became more and more unhinged until it went completely nuts in the last two episodes.
Episode 10 did a good job of setting up the villain and giving him palpable menace in clever ways, thanks to strong direction from Kenji Nakamura. Afterwards he became more melodramatic and finally laughable.
Kemonozume's overall aesthetic is deliberately rough and loose, with lots of room according to individual animators to take it in different directions. I quite liked the visual style of certain episodes and didn't appreciate the style of others. I can certainly see why someone would desire a more unified and polished art direction.
This is one area where I very much disagree. I really like the OP song, as well as the visuals, and the cool jazz style of the soundtrack enhanced the atmosphere, especially in the earlier episodes.
If NTV first uploads it to their nittele's YouTube channel (http://www.youtube.com/user/nittele), at least I expect that they make available immediately its access to every country, as they changed their minds with the restrictions (lifted shortly after its upload) on the latest and second Ōkami Kodomo no Ame to Yuki promotional video released.
Similarly, it is commonly used 'área de meta' (as penalty area) in the 'argot', so what I associate with a name like The Knight in the Area is the real fighter typically explained as 'delantero centro rematador' (namely a pure and opportunist striker) that in attacks dominates said penalty area of the opposite team, being a specially dangerous player to watch out on it. Feared by its rivals in a kind of romantic way, as firehawk12 says.
I haven't read that graphic novel or seen the series, so I have no idea if what I said represents in any way the meaning of its title, sorry for the intrusion.
There's a SECOND trailer?!

You youngsters and your achievement points! Bah!
Which ruined their respective industries more: achievement points or K-On?

Whoops. Guess it doesn't. Well there goes my day 1 import. Sony goofed up bad by not requiring trophies for PSP remasters

It's like the concentrated death of entertainment. The only thing missing is a novelization of the PSP port that turns all the girls into vampires.
It's just a caricatured version of culture shock. The culture itself and the feelings it ignites are so foreign to them they can't quite wrap their heads around it.
The Zentradi were manufactured to only ever know war and to fight on behalf of the Protoculture. Once they were left to their own devices, they retained the strict militaristic lifestyle where genders were segregated while maintaining their orders to not interfere with a planet/civilization with any sort of culture. So when they get a healthy does of Earth's culture and get past this initial shock, they either accept and adapt (Britai's group) or lash out to eliminate it (Boddole Zer's group).

Why else would you play a game you hate? lol
Yeah. Maybe I didn't expressed myself correctly, it is more of a promotional spot with a few new scenes included. Sorry if you had other expectations, duckroll.
Wouldn't be a Shaft show without desperate need of BDs.

Shhhh. It's a conspiracy.
That scene is in the game. If you
throw him in the TV, the fog covers Inaba, and you get the bad end. The cast leaves the hospital, Nanako stays dead, and it fast forwards to March/April (I don't remember which), when Yu leaves the town by train.
Magic.
Shhhhhhh- Not this one though. I have been in others.Maybe he's in it!
Because they are for the advancement of humanity.
Yeah, I just saw Sailing 11 and
there was some mad Star Trek space navigation mojo going on (ie the best Trek Episodes had veiled nautical tropes)! Poor Serenity Princesses, why can't finding old relics be good for everyone in the kingdom. I doubt the younger one would actually want to sabotage a family relic like that
I am glad this show has a following on AnimeGaf.
Well for one thing, there's not much else worth following, but also Space Pirates has enough hnnnng and action and technical wizardry in it to appeal to a wide variety of fans.
I boycotted Nintendo home consoles for 6 years, lasted 5 months from when Zelda SS released. It was a good fight me.

Why did my 3 minutes of hnngazawa get replaced by something like Recorder to Randsell WHY!?

Waaaah?
I decided to watch it today based on previous mentiones on here as well :lol
The main theme also sounded similar to me, was thinking it sounded similar to the theme in Princess Mononoke.

Persona 4 23
Heh, meat bowl conquered.
Well, I gotta say, I thought the anime did pretty well handling this part of the game. They made it slightly less cringed worthy compared to the game, and hell they even did a flashback instead of just talking about it. I did roll my eyes at seeing how long the calendar had to roll back.
I did more eyes rolling at how random Empress was given.

Moretsu Pirates 11
The space parts have been the best parts to the anime so far. Visuals as well as the intense sound kept me on the edge of my seat for the large duration that it took place. Kane is a great sternsman, and pretty epic with the
, and San Daime too, cool character. Marika is still a great main who has had phenomenal development, possibly one of the top female protagonists.
