You know, I think people who liked Tonari should check out the HiyoKoi OVA.
It's too bad that never went to full series.

He did write all the episode scripts himself. Though his idea for the anime-original ending was not so good.
Redline was something different, though I don't particularly care for that script either.

Someone earlier in the thread posted a GIF of it, so I'll just link that here:

Haha, in the beginning, I was thinking, "Mmm... this is definitely a shoujo."
I tend to like slower-paced anime, so I feel as if the pacing went by a little too quickly. As a whole I feel satisfied, but I don't feel as if any scene felt especially important to me. It was as if, by the end of the episode, someone had told me a quick summary of who each character was.
Maybe what I'm expecting and what the anime is trying to do are different, and it feels weird to me since I'm used to a much slower pace. The introduction for the main characters is out of the way. I think that was the most important thing for me to take away from this episode.
I am being overly negative. I liked this episode a lot more than my post would suggest. The characters so far are nice. The jokes were chuckle-worthy. The animation is pretty good and everything is pleasing to the eye. It's just that, while everything was done pretty well, that's all I really think about it by the end.
I think the biggest problem is that I ended up watching this with huge expectations. Maybe it needed to be a harem instead.

Don't make me watch more than one shojo at a time ;_;

It's only one episode.
You can see the genesis of KnT in the OVA, which is why I wasn't surprised when I saw that the director of the OVA worked on select episodes of KnT. I'm sure there was some influence by the KnT somewhere anyway.

Most memorable quote yet: "I like my men like my first cup of tea; first sipped by me" or something.
The whole thing with Sahei Natsume was so silly and hilarious. The random english speaker made me laugh so much and then just the lines Natsume said were so rediculous. However the lady's line, although she despises him, how odd for her to adopt his mannerisms.
Best part:

The whole ordeal with the blowfish and poison and her deal and the grandfather coming back to life through Mario and then the train with Sanetoshi and Kanba, mindblowing, unexpected, and just unforseen.
I said something about liking the fact that Shizuku was good at calculus but then got scared that people would think I was implicitly perpetuating the stereotype that girls are bad at math, hahah. Can't be too careful.

I doubt there was influence per se, since the Hiyokoi short was made after the first season of Kimi ni Todoke. But its director, Norihiro Naganuma, not only worked on selected episodes of Kimi ni Todoke but served as its assistant director, and is serving in the same role on Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun. So it's not surprising if there are similarities between the three.
That's what you were concerned about? Being a bit too sensitive there, methinks. (But then I'm the same way, so I can't judge.)
It's only one episode.
What are you guys doing to me.... this is like some sort of... reeducation.
One Piece 227
I have decided to finally start on the Water 7 arc after taking a year hiatus from the show (because of the Skypeia arc). The latter half of this episode made me feel really excited to see the next episode, which I am going to watch after this post.
New eniemes, a new story arc, and an arc that is highly praised by Anime-Gaf. This better not let me down like the former arc did.

Those shipwrecked people are going to die after a week. You don't tell a group of people to walk to an island, which will take four days, without some a compass.
I have no idea. Best Student Council is breathing down my neck but I'm trying my best to ignore it as long as I can. Here's what I'm thinking of watching:
Kanamemo (because I don't think there ever will be a stream to finish it, no problem!)
Kashimashi Girl Meets Girl (already 2, maybe 3 episodes in)
Uta Kata
Mouretsu Pirates (it's tagged with Shoujo Ai so we'll see)

Hrm, must have gotten my timelines wrong. I thought it came before for some reason. Then the influence is in the other direction. Either way, they're pretty similar and it's worth watching!
You know, one thing I thought about - does that mean directors aren't really attached to studios? Need to make a shoujo? Hire these two guys because they're good at it!
So sexist!
Kanamemo has that yuri couple I guess. I don't remember it being particularly good or bad.
Moretsu Pirates has that one stupid yuri arc. lol
(And finish BSS! lol)
Don't worry, that's all there is!
You're in for a ride.
From what I remember of Kanamemo I enjoyed it.
Hopefully that yuri arc in Mouretsu Pirates is looooong.
I'll try to continue BSS.... at some point. ;_;

Nisemonogatari 7 - 8
The writer of the story must do more action writing One of the things that was really nice was the Araragi v his sister fight, comical yet really nice looking and intense. Kaiki conversations are really good even though it always leaves me way confused
For eight, Araragi is truly a genius mastermind of a brother. The choice of the game was fantastic and just the entire
idea and scene, his expressions and faces all throughout, really cool. Really its just an experience I dont think I will ever forget, just so intense. If only other brothers in other series could do the same, a great prompt for fanfics.

all those lies I just lose track of what he is even after, and I guess I felt like Araragi just confused, was there or was there not a flame bee?! Ill miss him and hope he returns in some form.

Okay, that's good to hear. I had actually read some comments from people where
they mentioned they found it refreshing that both of the characters were more direct with each other in contrast to the usual shoujo character types.
Okay, that's good to hear. Based off of first impressions, it kind of seemed like both of them should be aware or neither of them should be aware and it would be kind of a blind leading the blind type of thing as they tried to figure things out.
Yeah, I am really liking the visuals in this show. I know people have already expressed their opinions about Sengoku Collection but I kind of want to check out those few highlighted episodes more now.
Haha, I quite liked that. I thought it was funny the first time I saw it and she does it again. Along with what I mentioned it my review, it maybe wasn't really great quality or anything but it did have a lot of those nice little touches, yeah.
Well, I've already mentioned my displeasure with Haru's character there but I do agree with you that
the look of the descending sparkles coming down followed by the ripple of drink on her tray and then her shocked expression, was quite powerful visually. Then the follow up with the music pick up and her hurling her drink back at him!(I would have reacted the same honestly)
I also quite liked that shot! Aw, I really should have put a few more pictures into my impressions like I initially thought
The show really does deserve it in my opinion. Next time then.
Agreed with this here.
Okay, I'll have to look this one up. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

It can't! lol
The structure of characters in OP really is something, especially when Oda manages to make the fans actually care about the side characters.
Also, where's the JoJo animu thread?!
Isn't there a MANGAF OT already?
One Piece 228
The first half of this episode, oh god, so good. I am excited to see some of the end-fights that will occur in this arc.
Anyway, One Piece continues to do a solid job in changing tones. One moment, it is serious, and then the other, it is joking around. Though, I always enjoy the former more. Smart, serious Luffy shall always be my favorite Luffy.
And I forgot how tsundre Chopper can be.

When it airs the designated maker will post it, its still three days out. (or at least when one knows where its streaming)
Horizon S2 Ep. 12-13
That's how you end a such a great battle, with risky stunts in aerial fights.
There is something about the whole battle that I really liked, and that is the detail spent on it as well as mostly no lone hero jumping out of the woodwork to save the day, which made the fights actually exciting and meaningful to be shown.
I started calling this show the best show of summer before it even aired. Now that it's ended, I maintain that it's the best show of summer. Funny, exciting, nice looking, with the ability to not take itself seriously but knowing when and how to make the more serious stuf actually stand out.
I want a third season like right now. The wait is going to be annoying.

How many OTs is this season getting?
Kanamemo's also got a musical episode for that topic earlier in the thread.

From the New World 1 (rewatch)
Was planning to just check out the OP but went ahead and rewatched the whole thing. Satoru still makes me laugh and really brightens things up.
The song is really nice and I love the fireworks.

I just did a brief re-cap on that episode as I believe that was the last one I saw. Good find!

So far and I guess a Magi one and a Jojo one, and I guess there was a Gintama one, an HxH one, and does Space Bros have one?
It probably will. I'm just curious if any others will too.
Definitely PP.

I'd be more concerned about somebody finding that scene so banal it's quite forgettable...

Will make it when the first episode airs.
Uta Kata is pretty interesting.
It has the Kiddy Grade art style which is kind of unique as far as anime goes.
Mouretsu pirates is hard sci fi at first so be aware that it takes a while to get going. Plus its not really focused on shoujo ai.
Ah, it makes sense for Magi to get one as well.
...
Will Psycho Pass get one?

Yeah I like how Horizon splits most of all the battle moments among everyone and, at least this season, its not just one lone hero. Hopefully an S3 and S4 is planned for 2013
