Jormungand: Perfect Order 1
Yeah, this is still the same old Jormungand. Everything's still in place: the ugliness, the cool soundtrack, the nonsense operations, the millions of characters you can't possibly name without a Wiki guide... And even the secret ingredient that makes me enjoy all of this.
I don't remember anything about
Now that I think of it, it's so weird that I've watched 13 episodes of this and still have no idea of what's going on.

Koko launching rockets, and I don't even recall what's her exact relationship with her father. I don't understand what the traitor guy is trying to accomplish, and the way they undermined the conflict between Valmet and Karen was extremely awkward. Also, I don't know who Hex is supposed to be and what are her relationships with any of the remaining characters. I just know that she's sexy, I guess.

I read something about Makoto being an uncle to several of the girls.
Its pretty impressive.
Perhaps fewer than one might normally expect.
Jeez. Holy crap. I didn't realize there was a relationship chart for this shit.
Perhaps fewer than one might normally expect.
This Tomaru Sawagoe gets around.
Perhaps fewer than one might normally expect.
Is this chart spoilerific for School Days? Or anything?
It's for the whole franchise. School Days is only a small (although huge in our hearts) part of it.
It frightens me that School Days is only a small part of the bigger picture. Ugh....

Do you want to go on a journey to learn how to say goodbye to them? I promise I won't
betray you or anything
Didn't they reuse this in an episode anyway? I know they reused the second special they made.
"Are you a real person?"
"How much ramen does it take to make an episode?"
"How many versions of Madoka will you make?"
The CIA want to watch her because she's dangerous. Or something. lol
I mean, she's Koko and she's loco, so it makes perfect sense!

Wait, School Days is part of something bigger? Does anybody care about any of the others?
Nah. The family tree situation isn't directly related to any events in the TV series.
Yeah, pieces were taken from it and inserted later for stuff like the early episode intros, the home shopping stuff, the cheetah guys, and My Neighbor Pedoro.
I own most of 0verflow's games.
They've made some good stuff, although School Days is still my favorite.

They basically reused the entire viewing festival bit for episode 125 but I kept and still keep thinking that it was in an earlier episode despite all my reviewing proves otherwise!
Oh neat, I wondered if anything was left behind lol
Were their games before School Days
just as crazy or was that the point where they were like "Hey, let's do something 'different'."
Yeah, when Bishoptl responded something like "Save your straw men arguments for another forum" and then Tiff was banned, I took it as a permanent. Apparently it was a couple of months.
Ah that's right, you live in Australia. Well, if you get more time, that would be great if you could get the chance to post more.
There have been many more who have bailed on the thread after a short stint here as well. I only remember because I see them around on Gaming side and whatnot.
Of course, there are people who have anime avatars that must watch crappy anime like the rest of us.
I can say that zeroshiki is basically trying to find a job at the moment, so he's busy doing that if he hasn't done that already.
(Turns out being an IT slave for a Japanese bank isn't a great job. Who knew. lol)
Yeah, I figured it would be quite a list if I mentioned everybody by name. Like you said, there are also many posters with anime avatars and who are keeping up with current shows but don't post here in the thread.
Ah, so that's what Zeroshiki's up to huh? Hopefully he gets a good job. It would be nice if he could come back and post here in the thread more often again.
Hm, didn't realize Chet drew as many page openers as he did.
Didn't know he drew any of your avatars, I just knew that he drew his own.

I'm sure we would if anyone would make animes about them. Or at least translate the VN.
So true. I think everyone in here who enjoys Jormungand realizes that it has plenty of negative qualities, but is still entertaining in a non-ironic way.
I'm not sure where the gender info for all those un-named "sons" on the chart came from. As far as I know most of those should say "unknown gender." But other than that, it looks generally accurate to me.
The Sister Princess characters could be called troll entries, but that trolling was started by 0verflow themselves.
(0verflow is a brand of STACK software, the developers of the Sister Princess game. One of 0verflow's games, Summer Radish Vacation 2, (SRV2 spoilers, not School Days spoilers)
has a character who is strangely similar to one of the Sister Princess girls, with an abbreviated name. Then in the ending of her story, the entire Sister Princess cast appears in back-lit silhouette to come pick her up. During some of the dialog in the game, the family tree for the Sister Princess girls as shown on that chart is implied.

girl panzer 2
I'm confused. Not sure if I love the show, or hate it for this... weird agenda I'm feeling.
throwing around stuff like D-day while a girl in a bikini is washing a tank is weird.

Sort of depends on how you measure crazy, but I'd go with "yes" for most of them. Not specifically in the same ways as School Days.
They were way more crazy than School Days, but in very different ways.

Asks questions so Ezalc doesn't have to
You might be a 0verflow character?
You call it crazy, I would call it anime status quo.
Am I reading this right? has this guy fucked his descendants 5 generations down the line? (wife>daughter>grandaughter>greatgrandaughter>greatgreatgrandaughter>greatgreatgreatgrandaughter?)
holy shit. Grossssss

Ok, i read VNs so i had my share of incest (Yo, Yasu), but this is bananas.
I don't think he has a single blood relative on that chart he hasn't banged.
Pretty much! School Days makes sense now?
Just for the record, he wasn't born a 1%er. He fucked his way up by his own bootstraps, forming connections with powerful families via their women.

She's pregnant, but there's no incest there, how tame! Sekai is Makoto's niece!
but think of the children!
Yes it really is as fucked up as you think it is!

It's too bad they didn't point out how lazy they were being by reusing old content, but I guess that'd be way too meta even for Gintama. lol
I believe he's trying to get back to Japan, but to find a job that isn't 100% IT monkey. I told him to get into the outsourcing management racket, but - much to my surprise - there's already a HUGE industry for Filipinos training other Filipinos to work in Japan. I guess Japan has finally realized that they need to allow people into their country if they want to keep their economy going.
Usually it's bad though, because it means they're just one note and have no range. I mean, I love Sugita but he's basically just using that same voice in everything. But then again, I guess if you're the lead of a minor shounen series, you're basically fucked for life.
Just having listened to the guy who does Spongebob though, each of his voice acting roles are basically completely different from each other. If you aren't a voice over nerd and read credits, you'd probably wouldn't know it was him. Even Nolan North has range, even though everyone just wants the shitty Nathan Drake voice now. lol
I guess that's just my way of saying that I hope these actors with "hick" accents aren't going to be stuck being the "hick" accent actors for the rest of their lives. But just going off of what I know about anime, that seems to be the case.
(This is also my way of saying that Kobayashi > all, I suppose. But even then... while most people are one trick ponies, she's a two or three trick pony.
)I only hate Jormungand because it's being so wasted right now. But I also have no interest in reading the funny book version.
If only it had some money behind it.

Well episode 125 was basically Gin, Kagura and Shinpachi going back and forth about how they had 30 minutes to kill since the animators messed up the schedules and didn't draw a story in time. It was subtle meta criticism.
You know, it appears that way at first, but then you realize that Makoto and his sister are actually completely divorced from the ridiculous tangled family tree outside of the fact that his father was the independent progenitor of the whole thing. So not only is Makoto a complete derpface, you can't even blame incest for it. Genetically, he's clean as a whistle!
Now Sekai and Setsuna on the other hand...
