ITT: entitlement issues!

Given that the show doesn't actually AIR until Friday at stupid o'clock in the morning there's going to be a lot of protection going on.

The Japanese say it airs on Thursday because they list the airtime as "Thursday at 26:10" - which is of course Friday at 2:10am.

Also no new ED?
Doesn't look like it, but there are a bunch of covers recorded for the show that haven't been used yet.

For those who don't know, the new opening song for the show is supposedly the other original song (boys, come back to me) included in the recently released Audio CD single from Etsuko Yakushimaru (&#12420;&#12367;&#12375;&#12414;&#12427; &#12360;&#12388;&#12371;) or Tika&#12539;&#945; (&#12486;&#12451;&#12459;&#12539;&#945;). This Audio CD single is called nornir/boys, come back to me (&#12494;&#12523;&#12491;&#12523;&#65295;&#23569;&#24180;&#12424;&#25105;&#12395;&#24112;&#12428;). Here is a link to this later one:

I absolutely love the accompaniment, but Etsuko sounds like shit in this. Really, she's not leading at all. 'Noruniru' allowed her to bounce around on the track a bit more, which seems to be her forte.
 
Hmm.... GG fansubbers seem to do a decent job of translocalization most of the time, but other times it comes off as stilted and during those moments I end up wishing they'd just do a straight translation.

I can't actually read what I'm reading without my brain shutting down. Interesting.

That Horizon show was the worst thing I've seen in months.

The story as they attempted to explain it is so stupid I don't even know where to start.

Everything about this show was terrible! Terrible.
I think for once, we're in complete agreement.

Because it was asked, Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon Episode 1 Summary (blame ABF)...[redacted]
You could be making every word of this up and I would never know. Not that I want to know, but still.

MAWARU-PENGUINDRUM has commenced with the same old opening... well, I'll post the new one from THE IDOLM@STER series, as some kind of... compensation! Here it is:

Cut down before he could protect anyone.

Horizon 1

This was not very good. It was insane, incredibly silly, and totally shameless though, so my interest is piqued a bit. Smugdouche is as advertised.

Chihayafuru 1

This on the other hand was actually really good. The card game is lame but I figure that's not the point. Looking forward to seeing where they go with this.
 
Mawaru Penguindrum 10:
So, Ringo has started to get wet at the thought of Shoma, who finds himself in bondage. Kanba continues to want to get in his sister's pants, and it seems like all of this could have been avoided if he just kept his dick in check. The episode was pretty well directed and there were some nice and creepy scenes along with some great aesthetics.

So it took Persona 4 for there to be more casualties? This season... sigh.

The ones who survived were fortunate although I'm surprised you guys lived honestly! So risky.

The latter.
Well, that's easy. Or, rather, it isn't.

Unique (in a good way) anime:

Mononoke (I think you've seen this) + The last two episodes of Ayakashi (because they're actually Mononoke episodes)

Trapeze (I think you've seen this)

Kemonozume, Kaiba, The Tatami Galaxy and Mind Game are all directed by one rather noteworthy fellow. His works are certainly unique.

Anne of Green Gables - Fairly down to earth story about the minutia of one unique girls life. Directed by a Ghibli giant, Isao Takahata.

Wings of Honeamise - The first movie ever produced by those crazy kids at GAINAX. An extremely realistic story about the dream of a few people to fly into space.

Jin-Roh : The Wolf Brigade

For starters. They're pretty well known, but still.

See MPD thread.

I see, it's akin to the rule of asking where people get x episode from, sometimes it's easy to forget how thin the ice is with this threads mere existance.

It's the last 3 episodes I believe.

I haven't seen these two so I'll watch these, any more suggestions will be very helpful guys.
 
Sket Dance 27

I don't know if I can watch this as a comedy anymore after Switch's backstory. Something just doesn't sit right with me laughing after that.

I like the new OP, but wtf at the ED. It's like a toned down version of the Needless ED, but then there's Yabasawa >_>

Also I finally started playing Persona 4 last night in preparation for the anime, and promptly got swamped by the game's complexity, though I guess that's a discussion for the OT over in gaming.

Rihoko =( I knew she was gonna get maimed. Well, at least Asuha won hers.
I'd wish for Kuroko to win her round, just because I love Satomi Arai's voice, but in this case as well I'm not holding my breath.

The new idlemaster op is pretty boss. :( If only the show didn't suck.
It's a pretty great OP, far better than the original. Sometimes I feel that discussing OP's as a separate entity from the original show is weird, but then I remember that they're just pretty cool music videos that might connect to a show and it all makes more sense in my head,
