You don't even need to watch season 1 to watch this episode. That's how classic sitcomey it is. lol

I haven't seen Genshiken yet so I'll have to see how I feel about how it handles things when I get around to watching it.
I've heard of Community and that's about it so any references there are lost on me.
All you need to know is that Ayase is best girl.

I like Genshiken because it balances the nerdery with real life. It's probably the most restrained and realistic of the "nerd culture" manga/anime that exist out there.

Check the Pokémon thread in Gaming side.
This is why Kanako should win. That way everyone loses.
Except for me.

What I like about OreImo is how well the VA and director capture the feeling of geeking out over pop culture stuff. Kirino is a fun character, screw the haters. I'm glad to have it back.

Suddenly completely relevant to this season.

OreImo walks the fine line between slight self-mocking of the anime otaku demographic, and showcasing the hobby in all of its facets without being too judgmental about it. It's rather keen.
Oh my god. :lol
Aku no Hana OT's up you SHIT EATERS
had to cull some impressions for length sake so I'm sorry if yours isn't up there.

It's not available in Australia for some reason, fortunately there are other ways (VPN).
Don't forget the OVA's!

Attack on Titan/Shingeki no Kyojin 1
Excellent. Magi 2.0 this is not. If it was, we would already have seen (semi-big manga spoilers)
Instead, we get properly paced buildup, good atmosphere, a fitting soundtrack, and an appropriate presentation that is rarely over the top for the worse. Right now, the true might of the titans and futility of fighting them has not been totally conveyed, but this is a VERY promising start, and if they can get that right, I will be completely satisfied with this adaptation.

Azazel-san Z
Dropped:
Majestic Prince
Maybe if I hate myself enough:
Photo Kano (Yokoyama ;_

[Little Witch Academia], again
Finally had the chance to watch this with my sister, who's only real interest in anime comes from some lame shoujo romances and maybe some Nodame Cantabile. Her tsun tsun aside ("that was so weird"), I was looking at her face while throughout the shor and I was surprised by how enraptured she looked. Even when she goes to the movies she has the tendency to drift her sight away towards her phone or any other distractions.
LWA's story may be a simple one, but that doesn't mean it is not captivating. There's not a dull moment in it, and the little payoffs at the end (mainly
) speak strongly of how good the characterisation is in this film. Yoshinari managed to keep a lot of story tight even when the majority of the plot could be told solely through the visuals.

What a great reminder of how loathsome Kirino is. It's an introduction episode that was both unpleasant and a chore to watch. I'll probably give this another week, but this was a really poor start.

The real crime is that Nodoka's voice actress has only had one other role so far.

Holy fucking shit, everybody should be watching this. The backgrounds are gorgeous, the direction is absolutely amazing across the board, the story was really interesting and the actual art and is honestly really cool. It adds a ton of atmosphere to the show. If this is the future of anime then sign me up. The rotoscoping really adds something to this show that traditional animation can't do.
The only gripe I have is that its hard to tell who is speaking at times. This is only relevant during the group shots with a lot of people but I can imagine this being a common occurence in the series since most of it (so far) takes place within school. Not animating mouths (or faces) for that matter means you really have to nail it home with either visual or audio cues and at times its hard to keep up with. I'd imagine its less of a problem as time goes on when I can associate a voice with a character.
But seriously this was great. Really great.

In Guilty Crown too, how horrifying.

I really wonder if they'll do or at least mention the last two volumes of the "season 1" manga in the new anime adaptation or if they'll just skip ahead. At the very least, they would need to explain how Sasahara and Ogiue get together.

I can sense something great underlying this but it's going very, very slowly so far. Still, it's going in such a way that I don't really notice that time is passing, so I'm at least being entertained. And hell, it's on Crunchy, so I'll keep watching.

The dere comes in S3. huehuehue
I just think of maoyuu maou yuusha
It wasn't that difficult to watch the show, but Kirino is abhorrent and her brother is a spineless dumbass.
luckily the other characters are great and bring the show up from the depths.
