Only thing I dont like with Jump Festa animes is sometimes the VA's switch for the main tv anime, so we end up not getting KENN in key roles (like Assassination Classroom 
)

0:28 was the first and last time I felt the bitter sting of Watamote and could finally empathize with those made uncomfortable by it.

GBF Try if its still on sale.
I finished it and it was one of the hardest watches of my life.
Then I read the manga and the best bits and characters weren't even covered and now I want a season 2.

Sengoku Basara S2 1
This really does start exactly where S1 left off, clever. Doesn't waste any time throwing out the new big bad either. Whereas Oda was a force of hell, Toyotomi is portrayed more as a force of nature. He doesn't have the same malevolence as Oda and his underlings had, but rather is dominated by stoic resolution, not to mention awe-inspiring power. With hints already being dropped about Toyotomi's backstory, it looks like this'll be a more complicated story than season 1's pretty straightforward Good vs. Evil.
Meanwhile, the relationship of fists and yelling between Yukimura and Takeda has risen to a new level of greatness.

Never going to happen as the series bombed pretty hard.
Buckle up.
Cool.
Those are all real issues people in ensembles like that go through though. And yeah, I say this speaking from experience, having helped lots of people through those kinds of things. It can seem formulaic, but to be honest, it's shit that lots of high-school ensembles and performers as individuals go through in music. One example I lived through: We once lost our star trumpet soloist/performer because he got pulled from school to go to chemo for his recently diagnosed cancer, which brought everyone down till he came back to visit and the other seniors stepped up to bring everyone together. Everyone cried bitch tears when he came back to play the solo at our fall concert, despite being out of practice for 3 months.
While maybe it comes across as contrived for TV anime (and for people like you guys), I really appreciate that they show those scenarios and how they affect the kids in their own band microcosm (though Mizore was a little over-dramatic, i'll give you that). It's something more for people who've gone through it I think, and I totally get why people are down on drama/band drama stuff.
Ok I was able to translate the remaining names except who the editor is. Whatever.

BLack Clover x Angela will be good. Never heard of the composer. I like anime design of Dorksta and Yuno, all that matters.
It's one of my favorites from last year but the changes in the staff kinda scares me.

Though I have little positive to say about the manga, I'm happy that it didn't get cursed with being produced by Toei. I don't wish that fate on any mangaka...except maybe Kōji Seo.
I mean, Yuu-chan broke up with her boyfriend in the manga, and they did make that joke in the OVA that this would have to happen to get season 2.

There is nothing that says the eventual tv anime wouldnt be done by Toei. (though Toei's World Trigger was really good).
Also sometimes these specials leave something to be desired, see Assassination Classroom special before the tv anime came.
Naoki Watanabe.
Been a bit since I posted here; I got really busy and fell behind on anime, but I'm just about caught up now! One more Euphonium episodes, one more of 3-gatsu, and two more of Show by Rock.
Which changes in staff? Do they still have Rie Matsumoto?

Negative.
Well that's a strange coincidence; that word also describes my interest in another season starting now.
But maybe you liked classics by the new director like The World God Only Knows and Tokyo ESP!
Having seen the first season of this, I can confirm this is false.
That's one hell of a downgrade. I wonder if Rie is working on something else?

Gotta give it five years, at least.
Are they though? I mean this is a Jump Festa special, basically an OVA that they screen at the event in December. It's more than likely done by now and probably didn't take long to make. The bigger barrier has always been Yamato 2202. During Yamato 2199, Habara said that it was the main reason why Exodus was delayed, because they had to work on that instead. Now that Habara has taken over as the director of 2202... lol.
S1's whole "plot" was basically "how do we get Kudelia from point A to point B". Its funny watching the show desperately try to scrape together some semblance of a plot now when S1 has completely hobbled it from a character and story perspective.
Lol S2 Kudelia reminds me of Han Solo in Return of the Jedi. She's just there, her usefulness is completely worn out. Other than making the odd vaguely defined business deal why is she still there?
Well they don't necessarily need Habara in the first place. The Heaven and Earth movie was largely done without him, as it was Suzuki and Noto. They could just end up doing another movie and not a full TV series. The main question is whether Zwei is contracted for the Black Clover TV series and not just the OVA.

Wing writren materials romance sounds like the worst thing. At least Seed and Destiny had a watchable romance.
I finished Fafner Exodus. It was so good I don't know what to say. I want to write something substantial about it, but I'm too overwhelmed by how it managed to end without tripping and falling on its face at the finish line because things got so messy. Somehow it managed to move everything into place regardless, and the ending was really satisfying.
ONE OF US, ONE OF US!
It wasn't my AOTY 2015 without reason!
Now you can join us in the suffering that is waiting for more Fafner!
Watched the first episode of Assassination Classroom, not sure what to make of it but I'll keep going for a bit. Also watched the first episode of Squid Girl, so much fun! 🐙
After watching season 1 of K-On yet again, finally ordered season 2 and the movie to watch over xmas. Also bought season 1&2 of Love Live! to watch over and over and over.....

Welcome, brother.
I believe so. As long as it doesn't say "2.0" you should be good.
Isn't it? A small group of fanatical supporters believing in hope against all odds, gathering together every year on the birthday of the symbol of their hope to share their faith in a better future. Cult or Fafner fans? You decide.
