Disappointment coming from the fact anime watchers will never get to experience the greatness of Kumagawa?
It's not that remarkable. The main character isicarus-daedelus said:
an empty slate. This is actually referred to several times. With Yuno, it would be easy for her to draw all over his empty slate with her own perceptions, besides, we have no idea when this started, whether it was from first sight or not.
Trust me though, this show is more wish fulfillment in the same vein as the "The Monkey's Paw" rather than Mary Sues in Animoos. That's probably why I'm enjoying it. Though it sort of takes an episode or two to really get to that concept.

Disappointment in the fact that expectations will not be kept and I'll just get however many episodes it's slotted for of boobs.
Which, in retrospect, isn't technically that far off from the manga in the first place.

Not so sure if Nico douga can be streamed to a TV, unless you are using a web browser or something.
I'm actually strongly considering dropping Guilty Crown at this point, except I heard the latest episode has
NTR

OT - Toxic avenger and Woman in the dunes rock! and both are better than anything this season. (well maybe the former isn't better than FATE/ZERO).

It's bad because of poor writing, which is really hard to encapsulate. Although, the end of episode 2 or 3 pretty much sums up the horribad scripting the series had.cajunator said:

I really like the new OP. It's perhaps the most visually creative and humorous one so far.
As amusing as this episode is, I find I'm starting to tire of certain elements, particularly Shinpachi's straight man talk. I think I'll take a break after I finish this arc.

You're not really messing anything. The only thing really, really worth watching is Chihayafura. Fate/Zero is still good, but not as quite as good.icarus-daedelus said:I will have to check to see whether I can stream it to my tv with convenience. I am lazy, you know.
Although since h+ has like a hundred Criterion Collection movies on there, the real question is, why am I not watching something truly classy like Woman in the Dunes? Or a choice title like The Toxic Avenger? Because.it's easier
I passed on Guilty Crown fwiw and decided I could not stand more than 1 episode.

Yeah, the end of 2 or 3. I can't remember and I kind of don't care to check.cajunator said:
Oh fine, it looks like it was the end of episode 3 based on the Wikipedia entry.
At least it had an okay ED, Down by the Salley Gardens, even if it was the Japanglish version of the song.
Fate/Zero should be replaced with Tamayura, of course.Jexhius said:

THE CG, OH GOD MY EYES, THEY BURN!!!
I hope I never see that mecha ever again. The CG in general is arse but that was shit with a lot of gloss.
CG aside this is something nice to watch, everything has been rather too cheerful-ish though I'm expecting tradegy at some point but I'm not entirely sure I want that.

Dammit Tori, I hope this is part of your plan!
Shiro vs boob mech was awesome. Never thought I'd see someone use
to win a fight like that.

It really looks like the show is finally on track. Still can't get over Tori - what the fuck was he doing? Doesn't get much more insane and random. It really reached a point where I don't know if he's some brillant mastermind deceiving everyone or just incredibly dumb and lucky. I'd say it's the former, but every time I'm sure that's the case, he does something so random that I start to have doubts. Which is cool. Also, I really love how ridiculous and imaginative the whole thing is.

Not quite tragedy, but a little drama happened I suppose.
Now, it may be because I watched too much shoujo in so little time, infact that probably is the reason, but the romance in this felt a little... sudden, I mean you start seeing hints of potential pairings off but in their infancy, then as soon as the arc finished it felt like some said ALL PAIRINGS ASSEMBLE, which makes watching the romance in episode 13 feel really weird.

Black lagoon roberta's blood trail ep1
-loli maid is like a mini chun-li with big guns and the sweet voice of satuki yukino(so I don't mind).
-Insane bar fight now thats what am talking about
Black lagoon roberta's blood trail ep2
God damn this ova is taking black lagoon to a whole new level with big improvements all round(big improvement in dialogue).
Rock is a completely different character its like the gap between the last time you saw him, his found his left nut, obtained the million puzzle, gained near yagami light level foresight and cancelled his subscription to low tier shounen that was polluting his mind, in the ova the stuff that comes out of his mouth has some actual thought put behind it. Even Revys a better character which got me thinking did they have sex? Have both of them ascended to adult hood?
Something insane building up,If I was watching this when it came out I don't know how I would have been able to waite for the next episode.

So according to the http://andriasang.com/comyz6/ ToX is probably getting an anime adaption/conversion.

You know, I wouldn't be so disappointed if they didn't run such shitty science fiction/nerd shows as a replacement for the lady shows. So far, the shows in the block make Ron D Moore read like "frakking" Shakespeare.

Aww, poor Sky High

Looks like big stuff we'll be happening in the coming episodes if the post credits scene is anything to go by.

Guilty Crown confirmed for killing Anime.7Th said:
In terms of quality Madhouse has done some of the best stuff this year, particularly if you include REDLINE. X-men is not one of them. I would imagine the financial side is a very different story of course, with the handling of said works.Blader5489 said:

Sad, but no real surprises here. Obviously a late-night time slot isn't going to be popular with general audiences. Anime is unfortunately in a vicious cycle right now - only otaku watch, so only shows that appeal to otaku are made, so only otaku want to watch, etc. I don't know how it'll be possible to break out of that.7Th said:

Such a great shounen show. Dub was also great.

You guys are talking Madhouse this season and don't mention Chihayafuru?!
I think this is key. The producer has a point that there have been a dearth of general populace targeted source material that they can adapt. They've pretty much run that well dry (I would kill for a Nazotoki adaptation though). The problem is that they've gone in the complete opposite direction and embraced super otaku. If they give more original stuff a chance, it might hit. I mean, that's what noitamina is all about, right?
