I'm sad Tiger Mask W wasn't today.
I wanted some knee drops and pile drivers.

That said, the early CG still sucks.
I made a bet with Zach last year that I'd watch ten eps of this for every book he read but I never got around to getting started on it. Sadly, he's given up on anime and just tweets about death metal, video games, and death metal video games so in memory of his previous youtful anime loving self I've decided to leave my thoughts exclusively in here as to not clog up his twitter feed.

Sword of the Stranger
What a great movie. There's a nice, heartfelt story about the main characters coming to trust and love each other, and so much gorgeously animated fighting. I'm going to be thinking about all the symbolism involved in the last few action scenes for days.
The larger plot, with its constant betrayals, secret betrayals, and counter-betrayals was a little hard to follow at times, but's that the only minor gripe I have.
It was surprising how much the movie was willing to make the Japanese look like chumps; aside from Jurota and Itadora, every Japanese soldier basically existed to get mowed down musou-style by the awesome Chinese fighters.
10/10, easy unqualified recommendation.

I don't care what anyone says the CG never improves all that much to me.
Still loved the show though.
I'd tell you to skip to UBW, but you never listen to me anyways.
This hole is my escape.
Happy New Year, AnimeGAF! Hope anime in 2017 can be fun and good. Oh, and my tastes are objectively good.
Oh, and in case anyone thought that Toonami hates subs and deliberately sabotaged Shelter during it's 5 minute airing...

An edited version of Shelter was aired instead of the full version.

I note that I failed to finish Cardcaptor Sakura like I said I would on Narag's backlog list last year.
I am shamed.

Lol. I do! Well, I try at least...
What's wrong with UBW? Someone else just said to skip S/N, so..lol

Shame is a good feeling to start the year off with.
Really every year should begin with people feeling very ashamed.

I got close to finishing all my anime resolutions.
I feel like I was setup by being put to watch all of LoGH in one year. Yes its 1/3rd the episodes of Gintama but its 3x as dense.

Uh, what? UBW is way better than F/SN from 2006. The Fate Route was complete ass as opposed to the UBW route.
They're based of different routes in the game. The 2006 F/SN show is based off of the first route, Fate, and is quite dated with bad animation. The 2015 show is based off the second route, Unlimited Blade Works, which (imo) isn't as good as Fate/Zero but is still a good watch due to the animation and budget thrown at it. Also UBW was always a more fun route than Fate, imo.

Just finished The Boy and the Beast. The first anime movie I have watched that isn't something like Naruto or One Piece, and excluding Howl's from when I was a kid. It was really good.
Does anyone have any recommended movies I should watch next? Here is my list, it has a bunch in my plan to watch list. https://myanimelist.net/animelist/NamikazeBurst
Oh, and is there any series in my on-hold or watching section that I should finish right away?

Wolf Children is better. Sword of the Stranger is best.

Watch Hosoda's other movies since you liked The Boy and the Beast. Wolf Children and the first two Digimon movies (subbed) are the major ones to check out.
Also make sure to check out some Ghibli classics. The Tale of Princess Kaguya, Nausicaa, Spirited Away, etc.

Alright, Wolf Children is next then. I was planning to watch most of the Ghibli stuff, but I don't know what order I should do to make some movies not appear bad (relative) by watching them after a better movie.
Thanks!
I have not made any anime resolutions for this year.
I think finishing my current queue is a good start.
Ghibli stuff are different from each other thematically but in spirit they are reflective of their creators(Isao Takahata or Hayao Miyazaki for instance). If you like a creator's work, just keep watching his other works, you'll usually like them as well, I haven't really had the feeling that one film would undermine the other. If it does, it's usually because the more recent one is probably better(in some ways)

An anthropomorphic whale. It would be the next big Miyazaki project!
That's the next Love Live anime~
Skip to UBW, as in, forget the old DEEN S/N and go watch the newer series by ufotable.
happy new year everyone
it kind of just happens
hence why this OT had almost nothing in the OP when it was first posted.

Different. And though I'm an outlier, its the one I actually was able to finish. The others I dropped part way through.
Looks nice. I can immediately see the Haikyuu character designs lol.
Also, having a Union Square Garden song is always a plus. Though it doesn't sound new? I think it's from Yozakura Quartet which is kinda weird. Hopefully it has a new Union Square Garden song.

I don't think I watched any of the anime I said I would for last year's resolution. But I didn't watch anime in general. ¯\_(ツ_/¯
Oh good you're starting this.
