LOL, hilarious! I understand the complaints about Etotama being way too frantic, but if you just sit back, relax and chill watching it is just a fun show. Env through some terrible humor, the show made you smile because of how out there it was. Just plain fun, and it is a shame it sold next to nothing and wasn't highly regarded.

Wait, have you seen Kids on a Slope yet?

Yep! I just genuinely had fun with it. Plus, I like Akio Watanabe character designs.

And yes I have. Watched it when it aired!

I'd quite enjoy a Mahouka S2.

For as fun/dumb as the show got at the end of the first season, I can only imagine how much more like God onii-sama becomes.

Also we'd get another Taku Iwasaki OST, which is something i'm always 100% down for.

Certainly can see where a lot of Foodwars came from even with just a few episodes.

yup. Yakitate is a great show though. Far less ecchi than soma though sadly the characters become mere shells of themselves by the end defined basically by just their major traits, but it's still a fun ride from start to finish as the comedy is great.

it's one of the few japanese dub only released anime I own as I typically only buy dubbed anime, but it holds a special place in my heart and I needed to own it.

I don't like Yandere's but I'm finding it hard to disagree. There was something strangely endearing about her despite her psychotic tendencies.

I am currently watching watching World Trigger and I am at episode 41. I wasn't so sure at the start since the animation was not so great and the reason why I was watching the show (Kuga) wasn't getting enough screen time. Buuut as I passed a few episodes I think my complaints are mainly ok now since well both Kuga and the animation in fights are great. Apart from the too long recap I am really enjoying it.

Btw death star Chika is awesome.

They make some really good poses.

The meeting with Sunahara will be good as we will finally see why they hate him so much and if its justified.

Aaya needs to be in an otome though.

I feel like Gintama is killing it with the jokes lately. The episode was hilarious. I'll miss them when we enter the Shogun arc.

A decent episode that picked up an older character for a new story. The second half was the best part as the manga style way the show presented itself got stale quick. Gotta love a gang of panty-loving criminals helping out with making manga. From Sorachi's needing friends ad I think we'd be good friends. Excited that next week is Tama centric as she has always had some great episode revolving around her relationship with Gintoki. If Tsukki didn't exist I'd ship GinxTama.

Oh well. Just thought the placement between the Shogun arc meant it was.
Click to expand...

Gintama anime skips around with the manga all the fucking time. As is, there are a bunch of comedic arcs that are being skipped to get to shogun arc so soon. Hopefully they'll just be used as a break from the serious stuff before the following serious arc which happened right after in the manga, but could hypothetically be rearranged

Dance With Devils Episode 8

didnt expect that with the dog, at least his song and voice is great. Now I see those Shiki and Dog scenes in a different light

Shiki is the best the others are rude for always picking on him and being all mean, he cant help it that he loves pain.

Here is what they have on their site.

Items will ship in the same box, to minimize customs charges.

Ordered Madoka Rebellion from them back in April 2014ish, arrived without any issues. Fellow UK'er here, so you should be fine assuming nothing's changed since then.

It's OK, if I looked at/watched everything with a jaded and synical view I would come to the same conclusions. However, even when I watch it a second time, I still appreciate it alot...


Also love the opening of episode 11; sweet to it's core.

I think SAO is melodramatic junk food even at its very best. I will say, though, in a world where so much anime features endlessly drawn-out romantic drama with characters so noncommittal they can't even voice their feelings, I appreciate Kirito and Asuna getting together and moving in with each other in relatively short order.

Man, working the whole week on our semester project is tiring, but it's so satsifying seeing it take form (it's a game btw :) ).
Didn't even get to watching Fafner yet...

Anyway, first anime episode of the week goes to

Gintama - 298

I love the manga-episodes. Akurogi Musai and the Gorilla mangaka (no, not Sorachi, the other one :p) are always hilarious.

Sentai announced they got Utawarerumono OVA
http://www.sentaifilmworks.com/news/sentai-filmworks-licenses-utawarerumono-ova
Sentai Filmworks is proud to announce its latest acquisition, Utawarerumono (OVA). This comedic fantasy anime consists of a group of side-stories to supplement the first entry into the Utawarerumono universe. Fans of the original series will recognize many characters as they run into more adventures and mischief.

Kenichiro Katsura took the helm as director of the episodes, with scripting done by Takamitsu Kouno. Original character designs were provided by Tatsuki Amazuyu, with sound direction by Takatoshi Hamano. Animation production was handled by AQUAPLUS and Chaos Project.

Utawarerumono (OVA) will be available domestically through select digital outlets with a home video release to follow.

I finished Mirai this morning. Binge watched the whole thing. Feels train almost hit me at the end, I think it was one good soundtrack and a little pacing off from tearing me up. I'll probably call it a day at work around 4 and go watch the OVA. I wish I could give it a rating, but it's hard to accurately judge a show this long when you binged it. I had a similar issue with Akame ga Kill - first watch through FELT like a 10/10 but going back it ended up being more of a 7.5

I only wish Asuna could've staid as a bit more self-sufficient rather than getting stuck as little more than Kirito's loving bride. For example, I'd have liked to see her embark on the Mother's Rosario arc for reasons other than becuase Kirito wasn't even trying during his duel. Also, am I misremembering things or didn't Asuna finally gain the strength to confront her mother thanks to Kirito (or memories she had of him)? More autonomy for the side characters would've probably resulted in a much more enjoyable show for me, since I loathe the kind of protagonists that warp every single thing in the show around themselves. I can tolerate super-ultra-awesome-to-the-max protagonists like Kirito, but only as long as the supporting cast isn't put on a leash and we're constantly reminded by every single character that the MC's the one who runs the show.

I mean, every single recurrent female character in the show has a crush on Kirito after being showed his manliness, coolness and overall awesomeness (because girls always want to be rescued, even if they don't admit it at first!), and Klein is only there as a stupid moron that is the butt of all jokes and keeps looking up to our awesome MC. At least the blacksmith guy is allowed to do his own thing, but then again the show probably doesn't give a damn about him precisely because his life doesn't revolve around good old Kirito. I've got to agree that pairing Kirito with Asuna early on was nice though, if only to avoid all the ridiculously stupid harem antics we probably would've seen otherwise.

...Oh, and talking about SAO again just reminded me that in some OP where they showed a couple scenes for each character, Silica's got to show how she was grabbed and held upside-down by a tentacle plant monster, which speaks volumes about how ridiculously shallow her character is (along with Liz's, I guess).

Kirito and Asuna's relationship never felt genuine at all. You can probably blame the rampant timeskipping everywhere for that.

Why show any form of bonding or attachment when you can skip that shit and say it happened anyway
