Toriko 2-8

Somehow I like the anime way more than the manga, all of the foods looks so much more delicious than they already did. My favorite moment was when Toriko tasted that Rainbow Fruit and the following scenes of it changing flavors at least six times in his mouth. They were drooling so much at just looking at it.

Im lost as to the purpose of Tina though...its like a dose of bad filler every episode.

I must say Kugi loli despite having competition from younger and veteran seiyuus still emerges to the top with the amount roles she having right now which are lead/side lead roles not to mention some of them are long running series.

Zero no Tsukaima 4
Shana 3
Fairy Tail
Gintama
Persona 4
Yakuza games
Hayate no gotoku 3 (coming soon)

I would add in bleach but her roles are too minor despite long running.

And with this we've reached the halfway point for round 2. Take a break; we'll be back tomorrow, when two of the remaining Puella Magi will get put to the test.

It's been true in anime for 30 years! The more you know.

Yuno didn't utterly dominate though. I am sad :(

MEDAKA BOX ANIME CONFIRMED!!!! No word on who's doing it yet, so no idea if those Gainax rumors were credible or not. Kind of hoping against them since there would be no chance of a continuous adaptation. I want to see the yandere girl animated :/

Truth.

Though, I just want to see it animated period.

Wait, you are supposed to watch shows THEN buy the body pillows. I've been doing it all wrong! But who watches anime these days anyway?

I need to know about the character before I can clutch their pillows tightly at night. Call me old fashioned but it's just the way it is.

There's more. She just tends to be defined around here by her JC Staff roles.

That's correct, we're overlooking her wide range of roles because we're a bunch of filthy haters.

Okay, following some of the side links from that Kugimiya video I found this absolutely amazing display of Mamoru Miyano's performance. Watch and try not to laugh with him

It took it's time, but the Utena wagon is back in town. There's been quite a range of members checking it out in the last few months.

I hope this doesn't end up being a sunk cost for them. Media Blasters needs to start fishing for viewers aggressively.

Madoka saved anime.

Uta Pri utterly dominated Summer season sales. Kind of wish Idolmaster had a traditional release because I am pretty sure it would have gotten crushed by the inferior idol show.

Is there a news article on this regarding units of sale? Seeing how Blu-Rays are more expensive and shit.

You know, it's actually pretty cool seeing these people doing the voices. The Jun Fukuyama one is awesome too, I wonder if he actually had the arrogant face on when he did Lelouch.

It's impossible to say Leloch's lines without looking arrogant, I imagine.

Zero no Tsukaima 1:

Holy shit, it's Tsundere Harry Potter!

This show is pretty funny. I think I'll enjoy it considerably more than I did the 6 episodes of Shana I grinded through before giving up. At least ZnT is a comedy instead of that weird serious vibe that Shana was giving off.
Click to expand...

ZnT tops out at ONE DOES NOT SIMPLY WALK INTO MORDOR Saito.

ZnT bottoms out incredibly bad with the ending of Season 3.

Shana Season 3 could be awesome if done right, but it probably won't be.

Yuuji becomes one with the Snake of Festivals and becomes evil.

[Gintama 40-42]

Ah, a serious business/character arc mixed with comedy. Amazing. It's really hard to pull this off once, to do it consistently is impressive.

It's also nice to see Sunrise blow some cash/talent on those action sequences when they need too.

[Gintama 43]

This may well be filler, or not, but either way it's decidedly cheap-looking (notice the lack of inbetween animation, low detail mise-en-scene, lazy character positioning and poor framing) but it still managed to be pretty darn entertaining throughout. Good stuff.

Kaiji S2 Final

What a bro ending. Everything got wrapped up nicely and
Kaiji finally gets his happiness. It was awesome when the OP from season 1 started up.
I don't think they'll adapt anymore of the manga with the way this ended, but I'm totally cool with that.

Are you sure you guys don't need to be first-posting on some news event elsewhere in off-topic?
