Went into the city for the first time in a few weeks to check out the new releases and new displays at Animate since the next season is getting ready to start.
So. Much. Magi.

Dat Aomine's reverse dunk man, its even better than some shit in NBA lol.
2nd season gonna be even more epic if they put some sakuga like in Kise vs Aomine match.
Last 3 episodes where hype as fuck, Aomine's a fucking beast lol.... All I can say is thank fuck the fujoshis jumped on this shit, can't wait for more, I'll probably read the manga now anyway, what chapter should I continue on from?
Aomine is awesome as fuck because he's friggin' Wade pre the big 3 era LOLOLOL

I wouldn't be so sure of that.
If the ridiculous amount of Magi doujin in the store is any indication, there's a biiiiiiiig female fanbase.
This is a pic of only a small section of it.
Balalalakia seems ok. Really I can't figure out this show. Revvy's supposed to be bad ass but Rock handles her pretty easily, so am I supposed to believe now that Rock could man handle Roberta who's shown pretty much manhandling everyone else but Revvy? And since Revvy degenerates into a childish lunatic with every newbie did Benny also have to manhandle her? Poor Revvy just folds the second a man stands up to her? Pathetic. And really that conversation pissed me off because Rock specifically mentions that now he has to suck up to a woman, lol, as if a salary-man's really a step up. That's gotta be insulting to women when you're not ok with it but you'll suck up to some wimpy pencil pushing male execs but you wont suck up to a gun wielding murderer pirate because she's a girl.
And Roberta, she's some broken shit, at least the show's self aware she's broken.
Balalaika's cool so far but they'll probably ruin her soon enough.
Sengoku Collection 26 END
This was a fairly light hearted ending to a surprisingly good (yes, you heard me right!) series that pretty much ended up being the reverse Sankarea with how its first three episodes compared to the rest of the series. I enjoyed this so much that I'll definitely buy it if it ever gets a western BD release.
Goddamn, I really want a second season of this. It's over ;_;
Oh well, I'll read the interview with the production staff someone posted earlier and write up my half-arsed summaries of each episode and wether or not they're worth watching soon.

That definitely looks quite BONES.
What would be a more fitting translation?I think I'm going to punch anyone who uses "Blast of Tempest" in this thread.
Zetsuen's Tempest.

This isn't Mac's first or last blasphemy. This shouldn't come as a surprise to you! He hates Jinto too.
I see... checking now the synopsis, I suppose 'Tree of Blast' is how that tree mentioned in it will be called now in English, right?

I said it before, but it sounds like a Legend of Dragoon attack name or something.
"Blast of Tempest... dance!"

I don't see why they were so reluctant to show any of this. It just looks like a Production I.G. show.
At least Icarus shares in my blasphemous ideals, Rock sucks. Jinto does suck. Tessa sucks. This Jintor fellow also probably sucks. I hate them all.
But anyways back to Rock, look at it this way, if I were Rock, which I'm not because I don't hate myself, but if I were, no I wouldn't want to be Revvy's or anyone elses bitch but I also wouldn't join kidnapping, murdering, thieving pirates if I had a problem with what they do nor spout hypocritical lines all the time while partaking in those activities. If I were Revvy I wouldn't give two shits if Rock was a meek little bitch around me but I'd be damned if I'd be the first person who wasn't his master, nothing personal he just picked a bad time to grow some balls.
But while it seems I'm hating on Rock, which I am, keep in mind that I really hate Revvy then, because in that episode they basically made her an emotionally unhinged 14 year old submissive bitch with a pair of guns. I get mental whiplash trying to follow her character progression from scene to scene, at least Rock's just constantly a bitch, I don't know what Revvy is.
I do agree the show wouldn't really work without him but surely they could have tweaked him a bit.

Looks great to me, maybe because its 4am!
Looks pretty good, hype levels increased!
I actually don't get Blade Runner vibes off the PV. I think it's more reminiscent of GITS than anything else. The city also looks closer to Guilty Crown than I expected especially the shot at 0:32.
I really really love the visual effects from the Dominator when it's used. The gunshot sound is also kinda nice.
I also can see traces of Shiotani's directing style such as the shot at 1:03.

Animation looks solid, despite the awkward hand + gun shot.
I'm just really psyched (lol) for what looks to maybe be a legitimately well-written scifi series. Those are hard to come by these days.
Fingers crossed.

I agree with you on this. The cityscape in Blade Runner is dirtier, smoggier, less high-tech - more like a slum.
I know it pays homage to that and many other originative sources, but all I could think after seeing the attitude of the character Tomomi Masaoka is... he could be a perfectly fine JUNKER's 'Runner'! Specially after checking out SDATCHER recently. Damn you, Mr. Kojima!
I'm kinda disappointed that the PV doesn't show off one aspect of the city which is supposed to be a major visual point in the series. The semi-flooded decaying city which we see glimpses of is how it "really is" apparently, while the really shiny and "perfect" looking utopia is mostly augmented with holograms. I was hoping for some daytime scenes showing the majesty of the holographic illusion, but when everything shown is at night in the rain, it all kinda looks the same.
