Except for 2D girls.
latest autumn 2012 anime chart's out:
MAPPA
While I'll probably watch most of those on the list, the only two I'm extremely hyped for are Magi and Psycho-Pass. Magi because it sounds like an oriental FMA and PP because the king is back.

As somebody living in Japan who can't afford to buy all the BDs of everything I have an interest in, streaming services like CR and even Funimation are a godsend to me. Especially with the government cracking down on DL's this October.
It's amazing how much the landscape has changed over the past ten years. If you had told me in the late 90's that stuff like CR would legally exist, I'd have laughed at you and went back to my stupidly expensive VHS'.
ANYHOW.
My copy of Hells came in the mail earlier today. I'm at the day job now, but I'm so fuckin' hyped for this.
Also, it looks like I'll be covering Magi, Chuunibyou for Japanator this season. So hyped for the first, and sort of excited for the second just cause it's KyoAni.
I'll be following other stuff, but for now those two are the work-related ones.

Of course a man would say that!
Men just suck a little more though. lol
Because they only exist in your mind and on your pillow cases!
What is her gimmick then?
Whaddaya know, my copy of Hells just arrived too. I'm about to head off to work (today's weird), but I'm excited to see it.

You're such a hype deflator, even for mostly critically acclaimed stuff :/
2d girls are very much a product of men (apart from voice)
therefore anime girls are closer to the male gender

So you're telling me you don't appreciate the glory of Sheploo!
I think it's just being implied that she's typecast, like several VAs.

Except when they're drawn by girls.
But those women only draw anime girls because they've been brainwashed by patriarchal society to share male values etc etc.
MANCEPTION.

Do you mean like webstreams or something?
those are outliers, and yet still often targeting male fantasy
Well at least you like tomato girls.

Activating the whiny voice.
Greatest achievement since the Moon landing.
You mean the most boring video game character ever? lol

Webstreams, TV previews, sometimes limited theatrical showings. Depending on how high profile a new show is it could have any of the above.
recognizable and grating? sounds about right
Exactly. I think Magi is doing some sort of physical pre-televsion airing for the fans.

I know that it's been noted that the padding is out of control for this finale, but about 7 minutes of this episode was set aside so that random, no-name characters could comment about the events that are unfolding in the city. This doesn't move the story or develop any characters or do anything helpful, it's utterly transparent filler.

Hikaru and Kaoru are just as lousy at dealing with theiving maids as Bruce Wayne is.
While the character art was below average, the storyboarding played around with symbolism and the twins' symmetry to make some neat shots.

Leave Omigawa ALONE!
She is one of the biggest reasons Soredemo shined. How could anyone not like her in that?

Where have all the skilled doujin writers gone?

Well, he has some visual prompts as well. Luckily his delivery is really good or else it might get kind of boring after a while.

They gotta fight that reverse importation.
Finally, like a shambling, soulless husk, the International Saimoe League has reached the end of its main round-robin tournament phase. But the nightmare isn't over yet. First, each of the two divisions have their own single-elimination tournament, then the top eight from each side are combined for one final single-elimination tournament. It's hilariously overcomplicated and won't be over until Halloween, for chrissakes.
Anyway, three characters to note:
- Kanade Tachibana manages to survive all 35 rounds of her division without losing a single match, putting a huge elimination target on her back in the process .
- On the other side of things, Hecate and Yuno Gasai have the ignominious "honor" of going the whole tournament without winning a single match in their respective divisions.

There are actually still a few out there, it's just that not all of it is easily available. I'm always surprised by some of the interesting looking stuff I see when I walk into a Melon Books.

One of life's eternal mysteries, no doubt.
I wonder how much money the shows themselves get from Crunchyroll.

Yup.
Same with Drescher in The Nanny, I suppose.
I'll never understand anyone who can stand the blandness of Sheploo. He's the calorie free, vanilla ice cream of video games.

I don't think I'd call Roujin Z better than Akira in any particular aspect. I did like it a lot, however. Why do you feel that it's the superior movie?

It's actually all covered in this here article: http://www.animenewsnetwork.co.uk/feature/2012-03-09

Akira wasn't as funny.

I dunno, I found BRS TV to be pretty funny. The writing really is that bad.
Well, you've got me there.
Man...Chiaki has one of the cutest voices in anime.
She sounds nothing like fran drescher. Fran is from Queens I think. She sounds nasally and like a screeching cat.
Chiaki sounds adorable and huggable.
