Just re watching Grave of the Fireflies right now in HD and man, it look much nicer than I expect. Will post an impression about this movie but very quick as most people here already watch it and know the theme of the movie.
I don't think I could ever get back into it. It's just too absurd for current me's sensibility.

This is the next movie I have to watch soon. Wolf Children as well.

Fate Zero dub is good except a few VA's here and there. Like the Tohsaka Dad, his VA did ass work.
But Liam O'Brien was in it, and so was the voice of Lu Bu/Nier. It was a Nier reunion so whoever says it sucks is wrong
Same.

It was Kayos.
You know what Kayos sounds like?
Kaioken.
Which is the low tier of DBZ power ups.
Fate/Zero had Liam O'Brien, Matthew Mercer, and Crispin Freeman in it. So it can't be bad.

Hyouka ep.16-18:
Very interesting conclusion to the cultural fair arc. It's fun trying to figure out how he pieces these things togeth r in the most obscure ways. Oreki is an interesting dude. Satoshi getting all jelly at getting bear non stop, lol. After that sensei arc, you can kinda see how they are starting to ship Chitanda and Oreki, well, at least we know he's got something going on for her, lol. 6 episodes left..

I did watch Frontier for the first time this year. Loved it. I think it might be my favourite once I discard my nostalgia goggles for Robotech.

The Diary of Ochibi
If you haven't watched this delightful stop-motion short, drop what you're doing and seek it out right now. The character of Ochibi is utterly delightful, and the way real world objects are used to illustrate the four seasons is evocative on so many levels. This level of joyful creativity warms my soul. Perhaps my favorite of the Animator Expo shorts (so far).

All I've done today is watch a couple more episodes of Space Brothers.
Hibito's at the bottom of a ravine!
Honestly, I'm glad this happened. This is basically the first Bad Thing to happen in the entire show. Of course I know they'll make it out, because that's the kind of show this is, but almost everything's been perfectly smooth sailing up to this point. It's kind of... unrealistic. But hey I knew what I signed up for.
The most important things are 1) it makes me feel good like I can do anything I want to do and 2) SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE!
Yeah all right.

Also Sabagebu is fuckin' ace, so everyone should watch it.

You know, I have a love-hate relationship with the go abroad to fulfill dream or stay home to fight evil episodes. Hate because I hate the premise since the conclusion is even more obvious than they usually are, and it's kind of sours on the whole dreams thing. Love because they tend to focus on my favorite characters and be very well executed. This episode follows the same trend. Good to see everyone in-universe is caught up in Twinkle sawg. Not really any angst this time though, probably because she's only going abroad for a few days. So it's just Kirara being awesome and her knowing it. And a cute assistant. Minami even gets a nice scene setting up future development. Towa proves her roommate worth. As always the bad guys have perfect timing. Nice fight, and the new attack is cool. Kirara puts up a nice act even when she's bummed down, but her more important convictions are still strong. Next episode should be interesting.

A few good voice actors doesn't make a good dub. A few bad ones can definitely ruin it though.

Sounds good, lol.
Sabagebu! is great, but don't forget your other mission, lol.
Oh really? What show has one or two bad acting performances that ruins the whole thing?
And how the fuck would some good ones not make it a good dub?
I'm frankly a bit shocked he lasted as long as he did.
woah what is it perm?

Nina needs to join the main cast pronto. Calculated comedy is a wonderful thing, and those sproing hair things are wonderful too. Much cooler than Nono and Risa already. Too bad she's going to be yet another one-off character... wait, she's getting her own dance? Sweet. Very stylish. And she's recurring. This show picked the right character to bring into the fray. Too bad she'll be about on Miyabi's level at best, but hey, even that much is more than I expected.

Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica [END]
This ending. That was so epic, but so sad too. I didn't expect it to become so emotional and I have to say that it really got me, especially this scene with Madoka's parents and the one with the violin. The series was, more or less, excellent. As I said, I didn't expect it to be like that. Dark, creepy, terrifying, these are words that can perfectly describe it. It was a tragic story for almost all the characters.Poor Sayaka didn't survive, again.
I'm not sure if this was a subversion of the magical girl trope, which more or less it was, based on my little experience with the genre, but it was a complete subversion of my expectations. As I said, I was prepared, knowing that this isn't a happy go lucky anime, but in the end it was far from it, as the "happy" moments were only a handful, which I personally didn't expect at all.
Another thing I loved is the whole style of the series. The colours are perfect for this. Scenes with many light colours, scenes with a mix of dark and light colours and a lot of "sunset" colours. The use of them was just so good. The weird, more realistic images that appeared during the fights also helped to form this eerie atmosphere in the show. Shaft are really doing an amazing work when they present such stuff.
Oh, and what movies should I watch now? Are all of them just recaps?
Glad you liked it. Watch some more magic girl shows and you'll realise Madoka doesn't really subvert its tropes that much. There are shows like Utena or Cardcaptor Sakura that goes into far darker, more physiological territory then Madoka does.
What about that music though? Very close to the greatest OST ever.
I can't believe I forgot to mention the music... I loved the Ending, some of the best tracks I've heard.

I'll watch the shit anime because I don't have Vita.

I watched the anime, but I haven't played any of the games...in order to do that, I'd have to get a Vita...
...and I'm not gonna do that. Because Vita means death.
Please give it 24 episodes this time.

I'm not dying to play the game though. If I hadn't borrowed my friend's Vita back in college to play P4G I could have used the excuse to play those games AND P4G.
But like his younger brother PS4 with the ladies, PSV ain't got no game.
Yeah based on the previous anime I am not looking forward to this one.
Wait, so they aren't adapting the second game? Well then, maybe I do want to watch it.
