tee hee hee hee
Not me, I can't live without my waifu avatars.
Didn't KLK win one year? Why would I ever make such a risky bet
Then again, AnimeGAF was pretty down on ERASED after it became complete garbage

I was kind of hoping we would get to see them sooner through CR or something but alas! April 4th for MHA's ova and May 2nd for Black Clover's ova seems soooo far away
Wonder if Viz will sell a special edition of their own or, since funimation has the anime's right, it would stop them.

I think Flip Flappers has a pretty wide gulf between what the show is trying to sell me and what I'm taking away from it. Yeah, Cocona life was portrayed as dull and boring, but I never felt that it was so bad that she would go on potentially deadly adventures just because they're fun. Her friendship/attraction to Papika just never felt believable. The bumps in the road that are supposed to be the growth don't matter when the foundation of the relationship doesn't work.
Seeing them do this good with this arc almost makes it worth skipping the necessary setup that the beginning of the manga is all about.
I'm still watching Matoi (it's alright), but I don't think anyone else her does.
Wait so Unicorn and Origin aren't the same thing ? themoreyouknow.gif
You'd probably get your ass handed to you by the powers that be.
This season was alright. I think this is the first season where there were a lot of gay themed shows, if not just undertones.

lol anyone else remember the end of episode 1 where they get kidnapped by the KKK robots? Then they show up next episode as if nothing happened. There is an implied time lapse but i keep thinking wtf happened in that time?
Really? I think that's the show best asset so far. From them physically growing closer to one another going from Cocona literally pushing her away in episode 1 to sharing a bed with her in 5, to exploring whether she had romantic feelings for Papika or to both of them sharing their wishes with one another, it's been the most organic thing in the show to me. The whole show seems to have designed around their relationship so far, apart from one or two brief asides.

Probably the point at which they implanted some sort of tracking device in Cocona's arm. It's sore during episode 2 and there's an emphasis on Yayaka grabbing that exact spot during their talk; now that it's confirmed the evil dudes purposefully go into the same worlds Cocona and Papika wind up at (was obvious for a while but implicit), that's the most plausible explanation that wouldn't need them to add anything else.
I think the issue will be points. I do think Erased will get more votes, just that you'll probably it in the 6-10 range whereas the fewer Rakugo voters will rank it much higher (1-3 probably).

Definately will be interesting to see. Lets bevreal though, they are both fighting for third behind Mob and Jo Jo, lol.

I don't know about this one, while it was awesome and well received in the animegaf community, did it get THAT popular outside of it? I don't think so.
I'm not even sure I know what Mob is let alone watched it.
Just goes to show how much of an outlier I am. That said I kind of thought given the amount of chatter that Re:Zero would be up there, though again not anywhere on any list I'd make given I dropped at after cour 1. I much preferred Konosuba.
The OT was actually pretty active and very positive about Mob, and there were many people that you never see on AnimeGAF. It certainly isn't as popular as something like One Punch Man, but I'm sure that quite a lot of people will vote for it and I'd be really surprised if it didn't rank high on AOTY.

Did funi ever put the Assassination Classroom one on their release? Im still mad sentai didnt do it for Haikyuu.

Not to my knowledge, and yea I wish sentai would treat Haikyu better...
Oh I was sure it would rank in the AOTY rankings, but just not top 3 sure like cornbread said. Maybe near the the 5th spot?

Funimation just announced the Noragami Aragoto Limited edition and it looks pretty nice.

Just an update on the Netflix/Ajin thing I posted about before. I've compared both Japanese and Netflix copies and it's thankfully just Episode 4 that's the problem (Cut a cold open from their copy.) If you're interested in letting Netflix know and making sure this doesn't happen with Season 2 coming in just a few weeks you can report it through Netflix's account system. Just go to your profile setting, hit viewing activity and click "Report a Problem." I imagine the more reports the faster it'll get on their radar.
Also, I hate doing this, but if you want to know what I'm talking about I wrote a post on my website about it here: http://www.allyouranime.net/ajin-an...de-4-or-how-netflixs-copy-is-missing-footage/

Yeah, I'm going by the "cashul" audience attention, lol.
What do you think will be ahead of it, Re:Zero, JoJo, Rakugo...?
GoldCrusader
Member
that's my opinion of course, but I thought that stuff like Erased, Kizaiver, JoJo, Re:Zero and maybe Haikyu would kind of beat it with the more casuals. Maybe My Hero Academia too but I'm not sure. Also I did not follow impressions of Rakugo, so I can't really judge it.
Yuri on Ice is also something that I think could beat it if it stays with it's current momentum. But it's really hard to say. Since gaf's casuals and internet casuals aren't the same.

True; can't rule MHA out either! Forgot what a huge following the MHA OT had!

Flip Flappers 09
Ok so my prediction came mostly true. Yayaka won but lost because she didn't have the killer instinct to disfigure Cocona and steal her power stone but instead loses because the twins defeat her. Gotta say the fights were pretty nice to look at but a lot of things that happened in this episode were pretty accurately predicted by practically everyone I've seen watching this show from GAF to Reddit and /a/.
The thing of it is I am wondering how much we have been shown is a lie.
There should have been a Yuri on Ice OT too, It would have been... fun.
To be fair, Toonami has to always live with the fact that Adult Swim would probably get better ratings if it just aired Family Guy for the 3.5 hours Toonami is on. Toonami is very much a passion/love project by the people behind it but it still has to play some service to ratings. If they choose shows that are likely to be ratings blackholes then that can only endanger the block. All that being said, I think most would agree that the past year has been among the strongest for acquisitions. If you are someone who can appreciate shonen/action anime you will certainly find stuff to complain about but I think you'll leave more satisfied than disappointed.

rofl no. Good luck getting people to remember Erased.
Seeing the thread explode after episode 7 would have been amazing

This just in: Anno has sued Gainax. Apparently Gainax could not afford to pay Khara required royalties for Eva. Will this be the final curtain for the somehow still technically in existence Gainax?

Gainax still exists?
Geez, next thing you know someone will tell me Midway isn't around anymore.
So that's why Art of Shin Godzilla keeps getting delayed. Khara can't afford to print the books until they get royalties from Gainax!!!!11111

Loved it but
Other than that it was a neatly tied up plot that had great range of emotions.
Great animations, loved how much was hand drawn but there was plenty of humour (And sometimes unintentional like all the
) the scenery from the clouds to the various explosions were such a sight to watch, one of my favourite films of the year, maybe even second (Shin Gojira Laser Beam Display still top) definitely understand the hype.
Loved it but
wouldn't their day to day life alert them they were 3 years apart, I had to write the date in classroom when I was in secondary school! Even their mobiles would tell them!

insert songs, joking how they were all season 1, 2 etc OPs, or when Mitshura said she's looking for the person who was inside of her... Maybe I've watched too much To Be Hero...

So the new Cyborg 009 film doesn't...look great...
Other preview.
I didn't watch the last movie, but I remember thinking it looked ok for a CG flick.

Yikes. That looks like an upscaled Dreamcast FMV cutscene. 009 Re:Cyborg was animated by Sanzigen, which is at least moderately competent at CG; this is animated by Signal.MD and OLM Digital, and judging by this their CG departments are not at a currently acceptable level.
Obligatory Principal Kurihara face or thumbs up.
