I guess you can say old habits die hard. Now you know why I have the RoMio and JuRitsu figures, as this and the next episode are my favorites.

Love it. Shun is such a boss. I like that he doesn't take Satoru's crap.
were quite moe. Seems kind of weird that they'd just be dicking around there unaccompanied.
That rather ominous retrospective narration in episode 2 is making this ticket for the Maria Train a bit worrisome.
Question time:
-What was the deal with Saki's thousand-mile-stare when they were observing the Demon's Hand plant?
-Why did Satoru throw up, and why did no one particularly care?

I couldn't help giggling at how stupid he looked here, though. The clothing designs are generally pretty good, but those hats are awful.

I still kind of want Mio and Ritsu figures from the "dont say lazy" ed
Certainly didn't expect to see this gif again.I'm waiting for Episode 11.5
Or people to watch it with, which ever comes first.
So both a reference to Pandas and Rin Rin. Polar Bear Cafe mentions before it was even on the box. K-On was ahead of its time.
The Green Gachi Ranger?
£3 Meal Deal at the local supermarket?

Making this brief because I should be sleeping but "real me on the internet" girl is totally me. Well, a lot better looking and dumber but basically me. <3
Show continues to be hilarious and it seems Haru is finally learning to show affection without being totally weird about it. The weirdness is great but you need a bit of normal, you know?

Code:Breaker 1
So I'm checking because its suddenly became hot properties in here.
Its nothing special really, mediocre production value, derp face here and there.. the blue flame part in the end was really cool though. And..
My stomach hurt because this lol. At least this very hilarious and not make my head hurt unlike Zetsuen.

Code:Breaker 2
Welp, thing downhill so fast.. what a boring episode. Nothing worth to mention, the stupid thing isn't even funny. Guess I'll check one more episode to see the fight.

About to dig into some more The Idolm@ster. What have I become?
In the mean time, took some random snaps of weird/charming shit at school today.

Cute little chibi dudes drawn for the school festival coming up.
You can tell some students put more effort into this than others. >.>
Terrifyingly awesome.
I'm not sure I like the implications of "'even' mAc," lol. It's not like I'm one of the resident Yuri fans or anything, I wasn't supposed to like any of it.
But, well, Kobayashi.
Totally, 100% agreed, Ishima's the best.
Anyways, as was stated earlier, season one is OK, season two sucks.
Hey now, it's the only show I like this season so far, count me too!Yay! Another fan! It's a really fun show with interesting characters and good comedy, I'm glad you liked it!
Eheheh.

Regardless of My Adolescent Delusions of Grandeur, I Want a Date! - Episode 3
I think
has something to do with book, right?
I liked this episode mainly for the way in which it showed Rikka's world in microcosm, and then juxtaposed that with her interactions in the real world. Once her façade is broken, she crumbles alarmingly quick. I think the most telling thing was how she looked to Yuuta in the face of such confrontation, and how the other clubs reacted to her general aloofness. I was starting to think that everyone she encountered was going to play along, so I was surprised that
I love how quickly he can decipher her bullshit too, and pretty much translates what she is saying (albeit, in her roundabout way).
Sanae may be crazier than Rikka, if that's possible. And I just know people are going to be begging KyoAni to move away not slice-of-life after this (if they aren't already), what, with how good those fantasy sequences look.
I think
Shinka
That she joined after seeing that meeting, as well as the fact that the name the club name was later amended (to summer, in reference to the book), seemed to indicate as much. But maybe it's all a big red herring, or that's just me reading too much into it.

the teacher was simply placating her, rather than outright indulging her behaviour.
Rikka is already dropping her guard, and it's pretty clear in those dejected looks she keeps giving Yuuta, that she she wants him to accept her.
I liked the gradual reveal of real-world information she is giving to Yuuta also, like with her sister being a cook, and its clear that he is beginning to get through to her.

Well as long as this stuff is selling well, its unlikely they will make anything else.

We'll always have FMP TSR.
Shame about that too, you know, since it sucked.
I hate to say it but Gonzo's season one was way better and Fumoffu, while not something I really count, was also better.
I think I'm going to be sick for praising Gonzo.
Yeah. Tell KyoAnus what's what!
That screenshot looks terrible...
Didn't all of their Munto iterations bomb?
*Shrug* Personal iM@S fandom aside(*), it's a fun and extremely well made show(**) produced by a staff cursed with an over-abundance of give-a-damn. Regardless of what the show actually is, the fun the staff were clearly have making it is incredibly infectious.
(*) Speaking of iM@S fandom, kind of - I got the first of the Sentai Filmworks release of Xenoglossia a couple of days ago, and finished-up rewatching the first thirteen episodes this morning. I still like that show a great deal. It's genuinely a pretty good show. The kind of surprising thing is that two of my favourite episodes of the early batch -
the one where Chihaya tries to kill Haruka for painting her robot Pink
the kind-of subversive "Makoto gets trolled" episode
(**) Except for the Hibiki episode, though they did at least fix the animation a great deal for the BD version. Doesn't make it any better, though.
Rightfully so though! Kyoani's a very technically capable studio but they need some new writers if they're not going to do adaptations.
It does, though it looks much better in motion. It was quite difficult to adequately convey it in a screenshot, as you can see!
Don't they have other writers?
God, even a mahou shoujo with some action would be welcomed. Something different... I feel they don't have any variation these days. Even their character designs feels the same in every show they do nowadays.
Considering they have excelent animators, it's a shame see them doing moeblob after moeblob.
still blob, just not moe.
Nah. I hope they continue to do moeblob after moeblob for the years to come!

Some of their characters looks like they are from K-On.
I haven't watched it yet, I'm still a bit burned on Nichijou, but it's the next show on my list.
Chunnibyou demo Koi ga Shitai! ep 3
- I'm just watching this show now to hear Maaya Uchida making noises
- Dekomori is annoying.
- Am I missing something or Rikka seems to be popular despite her weirdness? The guy always seems to be excited to see Rikka.
- Tsuyuri..why can't you just go home and sleep on your own bed instead of starting a nap club?
- Something always bugs me when I started watching this show but ep 3 answer it. Chunnibyou is too hardcore for the drama club to handle it.
-What is Nibutani's intention of joining the screw up club? For Yuuta? Or does she wants to stand out more?

Same. Its what Kyo ani does best!
Whoops, didn't realize you edited it, I'm going there though damnit!
I agree that Kyoani technically blew Gonzo's production values out of the water, I don't think anyone can debate that Kyonai's art didn't look and animate better than Gonzo's.
And sure, I didn't like the arcs that they covered but I wouldn't say it was all serious business or whatnot compared to season one when season one had that Afghanistan arc that was way more serious in tone and execution that anything the Second Raid had to offer. I will admit though that the main reason I hate TSR is because of the story not because of what Kyoani did, Kyoani executed on their end perfectly I just didn't think the Second Raid was any good is all.
It's the best KyoAni show, I hope you like it. Nichijou is pretty lame.
As for K-ON characters, Dark Mugi makes an appearance in EP13:
You have to give credit to a studio that knows where its artistic strengths are, and knows what it wants to do. I think the people at KyoAni genuinely like their niche and are passionate about its execution, and it shows in their works.
Well, that explains the generalizations.
And why do you persist on watching KyoAni's output, when you so regularly voice your disapproval of it in here?
I would have to agree. Kyoani knows exactly what its audience is and how to cater to it and they know how to realistically animate characters and make them seem believable.
To annoy you. Only you.
There's no generalizations. The art of the show really looks like K-On, sometimes. I know the show isn't slice-of-life.
But... it is.

Yeah it is. But its given a really fun boost with the delusional stuff.
