Gonna jump right into another pure comedy? You gotta alternate between that and other genres with long running shows or you'll go crazy. You should go with Yu Yu Hakusho next.

There are anime fans outside of GAF, in fact you could say that the majority of anime fans are outside of GAF. Yet, if we go by sites such as ANN, it's clear to me that the majority of anime fans have really bad taste in entertainment and I can't say I'd trust them to recommend what kind of blu-tack to purchase, much less tell me what kind of content to watch.
I'm not saying that you should get all your advice from GAF either - I certainly don't. I visit a selection of other sites, but it is really only a small selection because the vast majority of anime sites are blogs, and the vast majority of those are awful. As with all things, you want to find critics and reviewers who you agree with and/or can trust. This is a lot simpler in other mediums where you have a much wider variety of trusted reviewers,
Also, I've been watching anime for less than half a decade!

I've been in a big comedy mood lately, and I've been getting a craving for UY, which is why I've made this plan. But who knows how I'll feel next week? I take these things as they come.

Strong episode. The dynamics between the characters are well-portrayed, and the consequences of the haphazard formation of Chihaya's team are dealt with. The matches are made exciting through the personalities involved, rather than the simple mechanics of the game itself.
If you're not on Team Taichi after this, I can only conclude that you're irrationally biased.

We all watch anime, by definition this means our taste is highly questionable. Including yours. Deal with it.
Why did you came to that conclusion?

So if I wanted to watch Legend of the Galactic Heroes, where do I start? I see there are prequel movies and such.
They would watch that too, if it were possible in live-action/real live. Anime just opens more possibilities. haha

I am on Team Kana, forget about all those gross men. Great episode though.
People acknowledge when they're watching crap, reccommend Yosuga no Sora and School Days to newcomers for shits and giigles and Code Geass goes down as a fabulous anime to watch along with needing to experience that which is Blood C.
I think the charm is that animuGAF is self aware of it's own... erm... taste.
I vote that Clamp-B should be the go to recommendation instead of school days.

Oh hey they finally started updating again.
alot of us have been ‘marrying fictional characters in this generation. He just takes it to the next step. Why wouldn’t you want to marry someone who is perfect in your eyes and will never hurt you? Real people can be tricky and manipulative…plus, we live in such a disconnected world..
at least we know that one lucky gal won’t be getting spousal abuse in south korea
I'm dying.
I'm sorry firehawk.
That abomination of an anime should return to hell, but I don't wont to torture the hell too.-_-

Code Geass is a great series. I love Code Geass both intentionally and unintentionally. The other 3 are just terrible shows. Blood-C is worth watching though, because you will never watch a show where everybody involved in making the show hates you and hates all of humanity.

sos said:is this some kind of new tech or something? the animation is SO beautiful.
there are like 20 more details in one scene alone than any other anime.
i feel like im watching garbage watching an anime right after this one just by the art alone (like mirai nikki). anyway, just wondering if anyone else felt this way

He talked like me after watching a 80/90 OVA
Maybe it will get better with the movie, the series was nothing but a farce. It was really painful watching some of the fighting scenes.
Clamp: Is this "You mad? in? Yeah let this be the theme of the series! :E

But how is the hair?
Beautiful as ever. http://img683.imageshack.us/img683/5960/lotglohengramm.png
I would like to see a anime with that kind art as the animation style.
This series has been something I've wanted to watch for so long now. After seeing that one movie conquest of the stars. I've been told the hair from that drops in quality during the rest of the OVA. I can't commit to this if the hair quality drops man. I couldn't bear such a thing.

Everything - Fate/Zero
Horizon is one of the best shows this season, and Guilty Crown is the best original anime from this season.
I don't remember them getting worse...
at least it will be less heads to put hair on later on. haha
Reviews are either very positive or negative, I should make up my own mind by watching it, huh?

So, yeah. I've run through the original series at least twice so far, maybe three times (quite possibly four). [This doesn't count times I've re-watched individual episodes] It's just one of those shows which draws me in. Call me a Gintama equivalent of a Narutard I suppose.

Awesome finale. Love how the whole conflict was caused by
And did they seriously use Hatsune Miku for the ED there? Haha. Guess that has meaning.
This was a great series. Kind of like a less serious Sekirei with more memorable characters. I will never stop being impressed by Japan's ability to inject completely serious drama into some of the most asinine premises out there. My jaw was on the floor during the last few minutes of episode 5 because of the sick mood whiplash. As far as inanimate object anthropomorphism goes, this is probably among the most notable in terms of execution.
Kakeru is really the kind of harem protagonist we need to see more of. Screw this accidental pervert stuff, we need a pure hot-blooded pervert that will hump the fuck out of a chair just to prove a point and get himself out of crappy social situations. He and Tomiki should be the standard everyone follows when doing a harem series.
Anyway, this is clearly still the early stages of the series. We barely know anything else about the Akikan Elect and we've only seen 4. Seems like the LN is still ongoing, so I'm hoping for an eventual season 2.

Miku being drank by a cat, lol.

The problem with them is that they don't find the women that they're surrounded with attractive. Which leads to the same silly harem hijinks, sadly.

Yea!
Cecilia's one of the worst characters though. Char, though, yes, top ranking for sure.
That it's done so incompetently is an important part of its charm, though. It wouldn't be the same, and would probably be less interesting, if it was actually done well...
A lot of us watched IS, yes...huh, gaf is pro infinite stratos?
Those mech designs, and probably the worst transitions to cg since that girls pretending to be planes show.
Some of the gals are nice, but yeah, it did nothing for me
Should I be watching this, or not?High Score - 2
That's the purest form of love <3
No, you just needed to watch the movies.
There is nothing of any value to be found in High Score.
