Well the Mutiny occurred pretty quickly. Normally it would take up the entire episode but here's resolved in around 5 minutes. Ditto with the lack of funds issue afterwards.

The mutiny also showed me that Mikazuki is cold as ice. No dicking around, just gets the job done ruthlessly and efficiently. It's actually a welcome change in comparison to more recent Gundam protags.

Really good episode. Let's see what Tekkadan does going forward.

Great episode as always. We saw two new heroes bicycle man and Sonic the ninja. Wish the Sonic and Saitama scene were a bit longer.

Best One Punch Man episode this far. Yuki Kaji as antagonist is one of my favorite things in anime and he was perfect as Speed O Sound Sonic! Can s2 hurry so I get the event I need animated please.

Hey, The Organization appeared! Their arc is the best!

Great episode again. Saitama's Eternal Rival, Speed of Sound Sonic was awesome and I liked his voice, as in the manga he seemed too feminine. His fights were amazing.

I feel like the Sonic vs OPM clash could have been executed better. The action in general was a step down from the level that was kept hitherto. Which is not to say it was bad, just lacking that extra oomph the previous episodes had. Humour too was a miss, probably weakest ep so far.

When the plot doesn't move forward quickly this show leaves you with little to be desired. There was a surprisingly large amount of ugly animations bits. At several points when characters were talking the linework on the faces looked strange.

The betraying older man from the previous leadership's crew is going on my nerves. I was satisfied when the protagonists made short work of those still opposing them and yet, this guy does nothing but nag and scheme obviously. I have no idea why they'd allow him to be in charge of anything really. However, there's a chance that they're actually quite aware of his intentions and plan with that in mind. We'll see.

Waiting for the bottom to drop out and this Gundam is yet another terrible show with the same stupid formula. I find it hard to enjoy the characters over the years.

Gundam plot a doo-doo.

Think I died laughing with Licenseless Rider's intro. The animation continues to deliver with some great looking action scenes. We also got introduced to best girl Sonic. That bunch to the junk has got to hurt. At least he can still give us some more innocent smiles.

Comet Lucifer ep.4
Interesting episode. I guess the plot will really start moving along now, but it's a shame that creapy piece of crap is still alive. I saw a lot of complaints earlier about the SoL elements and the dancing veggies, but the show has been OK so far. Hopefully, we get a boost in the plot next week.

As a Korean, I am always amused by many anime's attempt to skirt or gloss over around that big issue from the 1930s/40s.

Why am I not shocked that sleazy guy is in fact planning to betray them? Come on, give him a few episodes. A fairly slow episode, but still decent enough with interesting exposition and character moments.

Decided to reward myself after a terribly stressful week leading up to physics GRE.

Intriguing first episode, seems like the mystery will be centered around this Dr. Magata
who supposedly murdered her parents but was acquitted and then disappeared to do research.
The protagonists are a bit annoying, with Saikawa being really pretentious and Nishinosono just constantly crushing on Saikawa. Episode has me hooked at least and I liked that math part with the proof because I just like math. Also, what a terrible CG car.

We got a couple on Chapter 4? What blasphemy is this?!

Seriously though, good stuff all around. The battle scenes were animated nicely and the confession scene at the end was cherry on top. I think this anime will be my favorite this season.

Asterisk 4

He fought all those carrying Julis? How manly. Seems like the focus of this anime is the plot and world building instead of character relationships as they open a lot of story points very early on. The male MC is very uninspiring though. I wish he had more personality in him.

Kimikiss Pure Rouge 1 - END

It was a bit slow paced for my tastes but I enjoyed the ride all the way to the end. Didn't really care for
Kouichi and Mao
pairing up in the end as I enjoyed the
Kazuki-Eriko
pairing more. Best scene IMO was the elevator confession by the latter though. Really enjoyed that part.

Pretty much introduced the cast and the rules of how the "closed room" worked. It ended with a fantastic creepy note.

Two miscellaneous observations, I really like the character designs, and I wish the closing credit music was in the opening since I like it better.

That old man must really have a death wish. I mean I'm not worried about the kids at all this time since they have proved to be more than capable of kicking ass and they are all geared now, but the guy's just going to end up like the former captain. Also this week we see Mika and the princess getting closer, all while the childhood friend is just there, childhood-friending. I'm rooting for the poor girl, but this is anime. No matter how much you blush, childhood friends never win.

Same here, nothing at all for me whatsoever. I don't think that I'd even watch any of those new acquisitions for free and if I was gifted any of them, I'd chunk 'em out of my damn house! Garbage! I'm sure that they will sell well for each distro so I doubt that they're upset at me not giving a shit about any of their acquisitions, plenty of other fish in the sea.

Call me when somebody licenses Millennium Actress, The Big O, Angel's Egg, Giant Robo or any of the World Masterpiece Theater on Blu-ray, thanks!

Asking for the Sonic vs Saitama fight to be as awesome as the manga chapter that was nothing but a flipbook would have been too demanding, but this was till good. Keep up the good work, Madhouse.

People are actually putting together timelines for Concrete Revolutio.

And looking at that, I don't know who Concrete Revolutio is for. It visually harkens back to classical animation in many regards, but its story is literally told in the most confusing way possible, with as much moral ambiguity as possible. You never get to really know the heroes or villains as people, so you can't really speak on their personal morality. All you have is their actions, but none of the surrounding information about them as people. It creates a situation where it's hard to say who the actual heroes and villains are in this story, a story that deliberately invokes themes of comics and Sentai shows.

And maybe that's the point. Maybe Concrete Revolutio is supposed to be uncomfortable to watch in some regards. Its depiction of a morally grey world clashes sternly with the black and white morality of modern day anime and comic book heroes. Maybe we're so used to stories being spoon fed to us, that a story that asks us to do a bit of the work annoys us.

Or maybe I'm overthinking it.

Nothing too substantial happened in this episode but I still really enjoyed it. The ending has me really interested in who the villain is too. I also didn't see that twist coming....

Haven't yet watched latest ep of Revolutio, but last week's felt a whole hell of a lot mroe coherent than the first two episodes.

It also felt, I suppose, the most easily standalone, so that may be why.

The music in the Sonic x Saitama fight was great. Really enjoyed this episode, the jokes in this one were so much better than last week's. Hopefully this hero title thing becomes an arc instead of a single episode.

That was a bit too slow paced for my liking. Also, I can imagine how the criminal escaped the room without being detected. My speculation is:
Criminal was under the dress in the roller cart, the criminal escaped from it when the lights turned off after the reset.
But I wonder if there is a counterpoint to that. At least it ended with one heck of a cliffhanger,
with the dude in the helicopter becoming the second victim.
Also the episode ended with a final squicky scene.

Hm, if we're making wish lists, I want Nodame Cantabile, The Tatami Galaxy bluray, Macross DYRL bluray, Macross Plus bluray, Kamichu! reissue, Tokyo Godfathers bluray and The Dream Machine to finally get financed.

Funnily enough my favorite Big O moments are those without the mechs themselves, so basically the first half. I find that I don't take a liking for most mecha action and appreciate the stuff around it instead.

Show continues to be funny and kick ass at the same time. Sonic is cool and is obviously super fast, still not enough to beat Saitama. Also all this time I thought the guy got paid for being a super hero. Without a job, how does he pay for food and rent?!
