In fact, some would say that going 'with the current' or giving what they want impoverishes creativity. Narcissist pricks who said it, surely.
Is EoE really a "middle-finger" to the audiences? It delivered what anyone would expect of Evangelion: inventive direction, explosive robot action, military porn, claustrophobic atmosphere and lots of character drama. The bland Rebuild movies are the real "FUCK YOU" to people with taste.

Yup. It also gave us a more complete picture of the story that was already told.
Nope.
Shinji always had a ballsack. The new Shinji is no different.
I don't know why, but I think I'm finally getting tired of the shows that are perverted for perverted sakes. I just feel like the jokes have finally played themselves to death. Not sure if others feel the same.
Yeah Nanoha is a way different show than Madoka. It plays the genre far more straight for one thing, although it adds its own twist to it in some ways.
Is jaded-and-tired-of-the-'otaku' Mr. Anno the best Mr. Anno? Lets see (http://www.gwern.net/docs/eva/1996-newtype-anno-interview). He wanted to end it all for good.
Neon Genesis Evangelion -> 26 episode TV series
Evengelion: Death -> Feature film recap
End of Evangelion -> Alternate re-telling of episodes 25/26 in theatrical format. Considered the true end
Evangelion Rebuild -> Some shitty remakes
Thank you.

End of Evangelion is a movie that provides an alternate perspective of the last two episodes. If you've seen the series but haven't seen EoE, you need to rectify that pronto.
Rebuild is a theatric reimagining of sorts that is carving its own path.

Hidamari Sketch x Honeycomb 2
Sae found to be a shameless pervert...again.
I would also like to add that it's strange seeing peers actually drawn in these days. Coming off of Season 1 and 2 recently, I can't help but comment on it.
Miyako's still the coolest starving artist around.
I don't know why I recalled Nori and Nazuna being at the bath house before this time. It was easy to assume, I suppose. Also, the "yuri levels" in this were exceptionally high here compared to the average episode. It's not something I actively search for or desire, but it was hard to not capture some of the moments here. Anyways, more Hidamari and Yuno wanting to take on the position of those before her.
Good times.

Season 1 vs. Season 4

Yeah at the expense of being an interesting character with an emotional arc.
You sure that's not just season 1 BD vs Season 4 TV?
Everyone has personal limits on things. I stopped reading Detective Conan once I got tired of similar setups into mysteries and I'm slowly getting tired of reading Hayate no Gotoku because I feel like the jokes are starting to wear on me. I'm sure that some people grew tired of them long before I did, and I'm sure that there are some who will continue reading them after I've stopped. It's probably the same with you and perverse shows.
I'm always saying about this about Original Eva vs Rebuild.
What so special about Original Eva in the middle way? its just another mecha series with episodic filler like episode, what make the originals was so special was 5 last episode + EoE. That make everything worth it. I save my reservation about Rebuild is shit compared to the Original until I'm seeing the end game.
I'm enjoyed two first Rebuild movie than 13 first episode of Original, the last part of it + EoE though.. its almost impossible bar to pass. And Rebuild is confirmed as not shit that worth to be make if just hindrance memory of that.

Accel World 01:
This is all duckroll's fault.
Kawahara wish fulfillment taken to DA NEXT LEVEL. Brain Burst actually looks legit awesome. Why the hell is the world suddenly
, though? That certainly........casts an uncomfortable pall over events.
Also, Haru is a better protagonist than Kirito, no question. He's not any less of a viewer insert, but he's way more entertaining, and entertainment is the one thing I don't feel when watching SAO. I expect great things out of the virtual adventures of this little spherical person.

I agree. Although I dont much like his appearance he is an interesting personality for a protagonist and has good hilarious.
It's unfortunate because this implicitly means you're not enjoying Kaibutsu-kun, but I approve of the slow Code:Breaker revolution occurring in the thread.
Yup.
I don't think Nanoha was ever nearly as popular as Madoka.

Well...girl runs into guy that saves her from trouble.
You don't see that everyday.
The music is atrocious and the dialogue doesn't help.
However, the fight in the first half wasn't too shabby. It wasn't great, but easily the best part of the episode.
Will things get crazy? Can the two main characters get any more bland? Will Saizou ever get more food?
All these questions and more to be answered!

That's not so say that I don't like Kaibutsu-Kun, it's just that I happen to like Code:Breaker more.

Great episode, but I guess the show will change from now.

You're getting Mad Pierrot to watch something over this right? You're not just watching it on your own are you?
Are you?
Explain, wow I might need catch up to this.
You know you can trust my taste in 2D women.
Except the fanservice actually serves a purpose other than playing for laughs in Pet Girl as opposed to My Little Sister. Even the whipped cream.
Oh yeah, because I was reminded in IRC - has anyone taken the firehawk challenge and tried to watch the first episode of every single anime this season? lol
I feel like this season is much better, since there aren't like 6 different battle harem shows to watch.
I tried.

Ringing praise!
Certainly Madoka is wildly successful, but in the sense of being magical girl franchises aimed at an older male otaku audience and being popular enough to receive multiple remakes/spinoffs/sequels in the form of manga/movies/audio dramas/TV shows, I think the two are comparable. (The first season of Nanoha was even directed by Shinbo!)
I don't know what it means when you like a shounen property that even cosmic has raged over.
K-ON!! - Episode 16
You know what the fans like? The implication, if I didn't know any better, I'd be inclined to say the Asuza has a little crush!
Jun is awesome, she is reminiscent of Ritsu, but it much more adept in the subtle art of trolling. I continue to love these divergent episodes, and if the last Asuza-centric episode was inception, this would be groundhog day, as she tries to prove that the light music club actually do something. Yeah, good luck with that!
Like Mio before her, Asuza was far too serious for her own good, so it was about time she eased up a little. Thepuppet-master Jun tries to make her see the error of her ways, by pointing out that her indoctrination by the band is a good thing, well, underneath all the jokes. Yui is the great leveller once again, and is on hand to deliver another succinct pearl of wisdom.
Overall, the quality of these episodes has just increased exponentially, and it's now easy to see why many swear by the second season. It would be easy for the episodes to become formulaic, so I really appreciate just how much they continually toy with the make-up of the show.
Sure...

There I saved you another 11 episodes.
I dropped it 5 episodes in. It is about cute girls pursuing their love of music and horse racing.
I feel bad since I've watched 13 episodes of SAO, the entirety of Accel World, all of Kokoro Connect, and 9 episodes of IS. Despite having better writing, Tari Tari is just dull.
