I hope they have enough time for the story and character development.

Worth noting that the Kara no Kyoukai boxset was priced at $400 by Aniplex USA.
So I'm expecting somewhere around $399 or so. Give or take $100 dollars.

The guy running this entire show will be none other than the man whosaved killed anime himself - Yamakan.
Black Rock Shooter TV will be the first production by Ultra Super Pictures, and will start in noitaminA in Jan 2012. It will run for 8 episodes.

Urusei Yatsura 10- Luuuuum ;_; Well at least Ataru managed to redeem himself in the end, despite how he treated Lum and still wanting to meet Kumino Otoko.

At first I thought there was an extra zero.
Do they really expect sane people to buy it?
I'd like to see the supply and demand curve for anime.

just photoshops, but Gundam would be instantly better and likeable with Yamada
Guilty Crown - 03
This is one of those episodes that firehawk hates. Contrived scenario after another along with forced drama make this one very confused episode. Its a good thing I don't care about unrealistic events and am here for the fabulous but even that is kinda iffy. Kinda a boring episode but its mostly setup for the fabulous next time around so I'm not complaining... yet

the friend being the druggie and betraying Shu was so obvious that I was surprised they didn't try to swerve us. Oh well.

bad gameplay lol
Just finished Highschool of the Dead on Netflix. Man. Sorta glad it's over. When the show's good, it's really pretty good. But when it's bad, it's REALLY FUCKING BAD. Episodes 10 and 11 nearly put me off of the whole series.
Thinking about Ga-Rei Zero next, since it's pretty short.

Are the English subs going to be professional subs, or lulzworthy subs made by running the script through google translate?

Un-Go - 03
They really really need to stop making these mysteries so obvious so early on, I spent a good ten minutes waiting for the "reveal" I already concluded to... and then the episode was over.
Or they could do a Columbo where you know who the culprit is at the very start, but the build-up to it is made interesting, sadly Un-Go accomplishes neither of these and the whole show just ends up feeling bland with a dose of no shit sherlock.

For a moment
I thought it was going to be the first episode of the series without Kotori, making Producer the only character to appear in every episode. Thankfully, Kotori appeared, admittedly in the background, right at the end of the episode, preserving her run.

Think of Black Rokku Shoota as really long OAVs instead of a short cour. Glass half-full!

Guilty Cliche 03
They seem to be trying to throw as many anime tropes and cliches as they can into this show. Even if they don't fit with the tone they've tried to set up so far. Shu and Inori are really crappy as the main characters too. I'm not seeing the potential for fabulous in this show yet.

In any event, that was a really abrupt end to the episode, though this time the preview indicates ep4 will pick up where this one left off.

Yeah, I also figured that someone was an android as soon as they mentioned he was working on them. Wasn't 100% sure who it was though.

Wow, I've been away for a long time. >_< Trying to get all of the endings in Atelier Totori is taking more time than I originally planned. At least I've been on vacation. ^^;

Idolmaster Ep17
Good episode, but pretty much just another character-centric side story. Probably great for Makoto fans, but I wasn't completely crazy about it. I still think I prefer ep7 and ep8 over this. I really liked the characters in ep7, and ep8 was just crazy awesome sauce. Still, this was a pretty solid episode with good art and good direction.
Un-Go Ep3
Not sure why I keep watching this, but I can't stop. The writing is bad, the direction is bad, but goddamn it's a mystery show! The mysteries are all like super easy mode, so it's like wasting 20mins playing a simplistic adventure game on PC for fourth graders or something. But there's something about it that hooks on to me and prevents me from dropping it. Maybe that in itself is the greatest mystery of the series. When I solve that, I can probably let go.
