That was more of a qualitative statement on the nature of BoobJoust rather than a quantitative measure of how much I scrub!
They're romcom time travel stories set in high school. lol

5, technically, which is why he's sort of a big part of the series now. Ema clocks in at 1 amazing case and a game, but she's awesome, too.
It isn't that I don't like Fulbright, it's just that I miss Gumshoe and Ema.
RE: Athena, I think what gets me is the neck-tie. Not gonna lie, girls in ties is a thing for me.

It's a sort of anime meme I guess. There are plenty of gifs. And I guess since a lot of people here like Hyouka, they too know the pain of Senpai not noticing them.

The Garden of Sinners Movie 2: Murder Speculation (First Half)
I'm not sure whether I'm supposed to be impressed by Mikiya's devotion or just think he's an idiot.
Overall I think this one was a bit stronger than the first. It didn't have that feeling of floating completely free of context, and it was nice to see the characters being developed. Shiki was made much more interesting here. That being said, Mikiya reeeeeally needed more development. Because to be honest he comes off as a self-deluding idiot who is unhealthily in love with someone who is
Flaws aside, I'm looking forward to seeing how the story is pieced together as the series continues.

Dude. SHE KILLED SEVEN PEOPLE. Yeah sure she has a good side. SHE IS A SERIAL KILLER WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DON'T BELIEVE SHE KILLED PEOPLE COME ON.

certainly a murderer. And yeah I'm expecting there to be a twist later where he was right and she wasn't the murderer, but we don't know that now.

More supporting characters keep getting introduced as well.

I'm fine with Apollo for the most part. Wright's is okay. Payne was very unusual for me, considering how different it is from the cutscene versus the shouts.
But hey, it had to be done

especially considering PW's VA left Capcom

I like how BGBW's joke vote got included into that.

Are you guys being mean to our weird cousins again?
(Or are we the weird cousins?)
(Or are we the weird cousins?)
I think we're the creepy uncle.
i went into the thread and people were comparing sao to flcl. sometimes it's not even good to check in.
This is so sick, I'm leaving and never coming back.
You'll be back for Gundam Build Fighters.
That's some serious cherry picking. Especially considering that they talk about how dumb and absurd SAO is 99% of the time.
I saw what I saw. I have no real desire to read more back and forth about SAO anyways.
so creepy grandfather?
If there is one thing I think we can all agree on, it is that SAO will always lead to bitter fights.

I thought GAF had rules against personal attacks.
Speaking of "attacks", Attack No. 1 showed up!
I was super excited to watch this since this show is basically Ace wo Nerae but with volleyball (and also like four times the length).
Even the OP is similar, with the enka-style song and of course, girls being hit by balls!
Also, bitchiness!
70s colour schemes!
Haxor moves!
Cheaper versions of Dezaki postcards!
That said, so far anyway, the show really isn't as good as Ace wo Nerae. It looks terrible, even by 70s anime standards where in Ace, you basically had the same 5 tennis animations looping over and over, and the main character is basically the most perfect girl ever.
But hey, 70s shoujo is 70s shoujo, and this is one of the biggest series from that era!
ಠ_ಠ
Actually that's been on a backlog list of mine forever. Think I caught one ep of the second OVA and for whatever reason watched the live action movie.

Keep watching. Here are some of my impressions with the movie series:
- Film 5 is the best of the bunch. REAAAAAAAALLY popular. It also happens to have a character that Shiro was probably based off of.
- Film 6 is extremely skippable. Like you can watch it if you want, I personally tried to, then read reviews halfway when I was getting bored of it, then skipped it.
- Film 7 is also fantastic. Probably the second best of the bunch. Then there's an epiloque which ties a bit of loose ends and finally, the recently released movie which will be subbed at some point next year that is the final movie based off the series.

bad gameplay lol
I can't wrap my mind around the fact that there are people in this thread who have never seen the Guyver OVAs. It just doesn't make any sense.

I have no idea what it even is!
By people you mean CWarrior.
The live action sequel has David Hayter lol.
lol. i remember being so mad at what happened to Hamill in the first. I wonder if the sequel was any better.
The VHS rental trailer is pretty hilarious though.
More unstoppable than any robocop and more of a hero than any power ranger

My only experience with the Guyver series was always seeing the VHS tapes for the live action movies at an old Blockbuster. The suit looked pretty cool back then!

Yamato 2199 episodes 23-24
Took for fucking ever for
Also lol at the fact there's an actual beach episode in a space battleship laser aliens series. The dreaded beach episode is everywhere, it takes no prisoners out of ANY anime.
Can't wait for the last two episodes.This is definitely a series to watch with friends. Especially those like me who loved Battlestar Galactica and Star Trek.

Yuki to finally be rescued. Kodai can finally rest easy.

Just that some seem self loathing.
The Eccentric Family 08
When I started this series, I can't say I expected it to get this sad.
The ending of the episode was really great, where
Looks like we'll finally see Kaisei next time.
Tears. Tears everywhere.

Yajiro's intense regret and self-blame for the death of his father, and Yaichiro crying over it.
Yasaburo was talking about how they each inherited part of their father's nature and they were tied together by his death.
Looks like we'll finally see Kaisei next time.
Anime-GAF only like movie 5 from what I read in here..
I love this series and movies, my favorite TYPE-MOON stuff personally.. after reading the novel though, I kinda feel they kinda mishandling few movie narrative direction.
Kara no Kyoukai is like Nasu's X-File, its Supernatural story with big investigation element on it, the story resolve around the cast describing the supernatural case. But take example of Movie 1, the movie just treat it as "OMG Ghost" and ignoring the narrative of the plot such like why
the suicide chain happen
Its no wonder Movie 5 are the people liking most, its completely nail the atmosphere, the investigation element of supernatural trickery that driving people to madness, Although the fact its the movie that have strongest direction also help a lot.
The Anohana movie has now officially surpassed 1 billion yen in box office revenue.

AnimeGAF and I disagree in many aspects. This apparently being one of them. Also Psycho-Pass. I loved that.
That sounds like a big number, but it's only about 10 million dollars.
I thought the 7th movie was fantastic.

Quick someone call cnet
I actually started watching that a while back (cos the first series is from the same director as Mitsudomoe and YuruYuri). Like Hidamari Sketch I really should just sit down and watch the rest.
