No, their financial difficulties have made that (as well as any future worthwhile works) impossible. Masao Maruyama wants to finish the movie at his new studio Mappa, but who knows if he'll be able to pull it off.
Oshii and Takahata are better. Kon was pretty good though.
Bingo
I've been seeing Easter Bunny decorations here and there and can only think ofnow. Fuckthe final episode of Blood-C
Ruined for life!

Masao Maruyama's new studio might finish it up, one day.
DO THIS NOW.
Seriously, like right now.
ALso, sadly, not likely. about as likely as Despera
So much anime to watch, so little time.
Despera's by the same guy as Haibane Renmei, right?
I never really got Haibane Renmei. Maybe I just didn't understand it since I watched it when I was 14
Sigh...

Don't worry, that's not something that can really be spoiled.
If anything
the gifs enhance the Spinzaku experience.
Masterful sound design, though.

The character designs are from Yoshitoshi ABe, who did the designs and story for Haibane Renmei. Despera is a collaboration between him and his partners for Serial Experiments Lain, Ryutaro Nakamura as director and Chiaki J. Konaka on writing. It was put on hold due to Nakamura's poor health and that's the last we've heard of it.
There is a lot of stuff in Code Geass that you can't really ruin just by describing it, because that still isn't enough to accurately depict it.

You've already watched the scene that was taken from.
Ozma episode 1
This anime sure knows how to hype me up with that great soundtrack only to disappoint within the first 5mins, my reaction being “wait hold hold on, haven’t I been down this road before ...many times before”, I feel like already know where this story is going and know these characters and their roles by heart.
Oh an episode sure does fly when it’s mostly made of technobabla like “captain the qtx and the nurbis are of the charts” captain ”nani it can’t be, impossible, quick men what are the global saturation levels at?”
It made me ask myself why watch this when I can play Skies of Arcadia again(yes i know unfair but why not,it haz gameplay plus more interesting and likeable characters".
+sound track was great
But these are desperate times, I will take anything thats half decent so i might keep watching

Interesting heading and layout indeed.
Thanks anyway.
and I find Aum Shinrikyo mentioned so much. Wasn't it also referenced in Penguindrum too?
The scene towards the end was 2D.
Oh that's true. From very near the beginning I think. But that's not anything close to the best thing I've seen so far.

That first episode didn't impress me that much either, but I think calling the characters worse than Skies of Arcadia after 20 minutes is a bit premature.

Asks questions so Ezalc doesn't have to
That I could tell, but there's some stuff in the middle of the episode, specifically when the girl is talking that I'll be damned if that was CG.

I wouldn't put it past him.
Do they eat steaks in Ireland?
Its kind of a "you had to be there" thing from when it aired really
edit: jesus christ I cant believe its been almost 6 years since Geass S1 aired. Fuck this!
Legends never die!
OZMA 1
This show was so much better when no one but Capt was opening her mouth to shout orders, and shit was going down--literally. And I mean all of that was honestly engaging, but everything else; the foreshadowing, dialogs, and physical interactions between characters, it all felt so very forced and a step from a cliche if not one completely. I'll give it another ep or two though, if only for Capt; she's a boss, and Sam's playing out of his league. 1 + 1=yuri. I can already see the ending.

yeah I know
Episode wasn't terrible it just felt like i seen this already, the technobable was really bad like all space opera/ship animes.
Am calling it now guyz the captain has thing for the main kid's brother!
Guys, can you recommend some good anime soundtracks, so I can test out these new headphones?
I've been listening to my copy of the Elemental Gelade soundtrack and its a remarkable difference in clarity. Sora no Woto Ost also sounds pretty amazing.
I'm referring to this soundtrack by the way:

Gundam Unicorn.
Not really anime but any of the Ar Tonelico OSTs?
I was looking for this one!
Consistency is the last word I would use to describe Howl's.
Ditto. And then Ao no Exorcist's OSTs after that. All fantastic Hiroyuki.

Ok, Daily Lives of High School boys is fucking awesome. I'm on Ep 6 ATM. I know some Anime lovers don't watch pass the credits. After each Eps they show play a short show called High School girls are Funky. OMFG!
A Toast to this show *holds up glass of Vodka* This show alone saved Anime this season. Please let me know if I'm missing another good anime this season, I've been out of the loop.

Tenmon's 5cm/s OST or ef ~ a tale of memories OST
Iwasaki Taku's TTGL OST
Hiroyuki Sawano's Sengoku Basara OST

Hunky Nostradamus
I haven't been following anime this season so I'm out of the loop. Are there any new series worth watching?
apparently, Daily Lives of Highschool Boys
Also, Ano Natsu, Bodacious Space Pirates, and Another.
We got Daily Lives of High School Boys, Mirai Nikki (continuing) Another, Ano Natsu, Rinne no Lagrange, Moretsu Pirates, Nisemonogatari, Symphogear, and some others too.

Guilty Crown is all one must watch.

Well, you're already watching the best of the season, but I think that Rinne no Lagrange and Mouretsu Pirates are worth a watch as well.
Same as above, but absolutely watch Daily Lives of High School Boys.
Spring is coming soon and several shows are showing promise, foremost amongst these being Sakamichi no Apollon.
Nise 11
Good closing episode, both arcs ended well now that I think about it. While it was ultimately an inferior show compared to Bake, there were some worthwhile episodes in there. Given the amount of material though, it felt pretty dragged out. A shorter length like Black Rock Shooter, or Ozuma, would have served it better I think.

I don't know that any shows from this season are worth actively seeking out, but if the synopsis of Another, Ano Natsu, Daily Lives,
Rinne, or Natsume seem appealing to you and you are wanting to watch anime you might enjoy them.
Chihayafuru and Nise have been nothing but disappointments and wasted potential.
Highschool D x D,
Chihayafuru and Nise have been nothing but disappointments and wasted potential.
