Why does the good stuff always come out in Japan. I really wanna buy anime blurays, they just need to make them available to me!
Because Japan pays $90-$100 a 2-episode disc for it, and you touch yourself at night.

I regret it, Ultimadrago... I clearly do... but I also think this must be known, so we can see by ourselves what atrocities the human being can do!
We must never forget, my friend!
So, er... do I have to be the one posting those impressions?
SD Nichijou. Might as well not even bother.
You understand me better than anyone, comrade! This is why it hurts when you aren't here as much as you used to... :-(You have to see the worst to truly appreciate the best. /XX/ is actually helping us by hurting us.
... but... but......and yes, I would love to see your impressions!

This person openly hates SAO so much it makes me actually frustrated. Ugh.

Nichijou Episodes 1-5
Holy shit this is fucking funny. I rarely ever legitimately laugh from movies, tv shows, anime or games but this is getting me to laugh constantly. Everything just happens out of no where and it's all so ridiculous. If the rest of the series is this good it'll be one of my favourite animes.
What other anime is this funny? Any recommendations?
soon...

Try Unite! is still my OP of the year so far.
You're a braver man than I. I was going to make a comment on the PJs but decided to keep it to the IRC.

Watched the Jojo opening for the 67th time.
I believe Joshiraku features political jokes (and I would guess that Sayonara Zetsubou-Sensei does too?), but most anime really aren't targeted towards an audience that's interested in that kind of thing. Anime comedy is generally about parodies or sex comedy stuff; there's not really much of a place for political jokes.

I know how you feel. Especially after I get DVDs of something and then they announce blurays. Fuck it all.
I don't think they're that expensive over there aswel.
There needs to be a company that localizes this stuff. Cute avatar btw, wich show?
Tokyo Mew Mew.

Envelope Hito didn't die!
Oh hey mine too.My tickets are ready for Chicago.
One would think that otaku would have become more politically active after the indecency bill, Ishihara publicly expressing his loathing for anime fans, etc.
I suppose they're an interest group that no one represents, hence the apathy!
So you want him to take a sword and kill the guy in the hospital room when it's already said that he is the reason she is still alive ?He is isn't in the game anymore..that was also one of the point of this episode , no sword skills , no powers and the loss of a moral support.Expecting anything that him realising his helplessness would have been totaly unrealistic
Probably same DNA
It's shounen sunday jojo then hxh then one piece then toriko.
Jojo Jojo Jojo Jojo Jojo Jojo ep2
Hot damn that Manly opening, I didn't read or look at anyones posts So I wasn't ready, now am going to be whispering jojo all day, some castlevania esque intro.

Awesome episode, mora speedwagon mora everyone one cause there just so awesome.
My heart. x_x
Catgirls show. :/
My problem is that Kirito goes from a decent hero (decently good problem solver and killer) to a bag of wet noodles. How has Kirito learned to solve his problems in SAO? He has learned to 1. analyze his enemies, 2. figure out their weak point, and 3. exploit said weak point. In the game world Kirito quickly figured things out and did whatever he had to do in order to survive and save his friends. In the real world he doesn't even try. That lack of an event an attempt annoys me.
I do admit your point that this episode was about showing Kirito hitting rock bottom in the real world. My problem is precisely that they are splitting Kirito into two different personalities: the heroic online figure and the wuss offline one. Someone like the Kirito in the game world would have tracked down the weirdo "fiance" and figured out how to deal with him. Instead he is reduced as a character for no good reason but to lengthen the narrative. I am not saying that Kirito should have bought a sword and used it to fix his problems. I am saying that he should have at least thought about it, concluded that would not work, and then come up with a plan that might work. Kirito survived the game world not because he had great skills but because he was a loner who thought things through. If Kirito only cannot learn to be a hero in the real world from the game world, I do not see how he can be a credible or interesting character.
I decided to Google up Japanese humour in an attempt to learn about something other than manzai, and thought this article was interesting. It talks about launching a Japanese version of Saturday Night Live, and mentions specifically that political commentary was off-limits for it. So maybe it's still slightly "taboo" to make fun of politicians?
There's also some interesting commentary on adapting the musical Spamalot for Japan, but to be honest it's not that different to what they've done to the show for other territories so I'm not surprised by that.

Alfred is the imouto.
No you.You have a seriously strange sense of humor. I couldn't really laugh until episode 3, but just one time. Some later episodes are better in humour, but not that much anyway.
Oh my this post.Alfred is the imouto.

Like i said this isn't a game were all you have to do is to find a weakpoint and attack..My problem is that Kirito goes from a decent hero (decently good problem solver and killer) to a bag of wet noodles.

How much did they sell?
Didn't you know? You give a six year old Kirito a gobstopper, half a shoelace and an assortment of Lego bricks and he'll build a PC from them. Not even Batman can do that.
That is why I mentioned long running slice-of-life series as an example, that explores that kind of themes because they reach bigger audiences. Even innocent Sazae-san sometimes has slipped its own satirical view, on politics that affect traditional family matters, but more in the 'caricaturesque' manner that I said before. From what I've seen, maybe Kochikame could be a better example, although without being something very crude.One would think that otaku would have become more politically active after the indecency bill, Ishihara publicly expressing his loathing for anime fans, etc.
