The Walking Dead game is the Walking Dead of anime.

I don't even know what you are trying to say with this.

The Walking Dead is one of the best animes I've ever played, man.

There's nothing particularly anime about it. If you called it a visual novel I could at least see your point.

 

[BGBW]

Is the Walking Dead those who have left the House of the Dead?

Watched two episodes of Non Non Biyori.

This is so adorable, oh my god! One of those animes you watch with a smile on your face the whole episode and lots of "aaaww" moments.

Seeing that loop, I'm reminded of this gif:

 

[Gintoki313]

I learn something new everyday. I didn't know Gintama in English is "Silver Soul." That's pretty cool.

It's better then what I found out Kuroko's No Basket is in English. "The Basketball In Which Kuroko Plays," holy moly! It's not the translation, but just what it's called in English (at least I don't think it's the direct translation). That is a long title.

 

[Kurita]

Gintama is just a pun.
Kintama means testicles.

Strike the Blood Episode 4

Man that familiar attack is lame. I expected worse though when it looked like it was a gauntlet item. Boosto!

Wow at the knee blushing.

Yeah and this is definitely without a doubt exactly like Index. Even down to having a Tsuchimikado like classmate that knows what is going on and is secretly observing the MC.

 

[nintendoman58]

Gintama is just a pun.

I lost it when I saw that for the first time. Gintama is amazing.

 

[Gintoki313]

Gintama is just a pun.
Kintama means testicles.

I looked it up and got an explanation

"Gold" (kin) and "Ball" (tama)... Japanese word for testicles

That's pretty great lol.

Has anyone here seen coyote ragtime show? The MAL description makes it sound like something I could enjoy but the reviews are polarizing among fans. Not sure if it's a diamond in the rough.

I think I was the one who suggested it to you right? It's decent. It has very cops-and-robbers heist film meets Treasure Island feel to it. It's not the greatest thing out there, but you could definitely watch a lot worst.

I know Valvrave is priceless, but it looks like Aniplex finally managed to put a price on it.

Dokidoki precure - 36

In this episode raquel find out about love .... and the disapointment that often comes with it.

it was good comedy , an average episode otherwise.

 

[BGBW]

I'm surprised they haven't made a Beckham reference on Gintama.

Or they have and I've completely forgotten about it. I mean it's been like 5+ years since I started watching it (before I even got into anime properly).

They haven't touched to the sports much , a bit of baseball , a little of tennis but they haven't touched football yet i think.

Goddamn...How?

The computer nerd in me had to double-check if this was caused by some overflow error.

Sure enough, 2^31 = 2,147,483,648, the max value of a 4-byte signed integer.
(Yes, I realize I should probably have that value memorized as a programmer and be able to recognize it on sight, but whatever.)

 

[cajunator]

There isn't a single 3D person cuter than Yuno, so why bother!



You'll love episode 4.

This is very true.

The first Yuno people think of is that Yuno, what kind of world am I living in?!

No worries, thats just Dave's favorite character. Yuno Gasai is a total cutie too. she's just not the Yuno in our hearts.

3D >>>>>>>>>> 2D you weirdos

Now I need to find one of those YouTube downloader extensions, for erm reasons

I must disagree!

RIP Deedlit's face.

I know. Type Moon ruined it

All right. Sounds good enough. And yeah it was you.


On a different note, finally saw some pics and the test footage of the next Urobutcher film. It's 3D. Could this be the film that does 3D completely right? I say so since You Sunk My Battle Waifu (TV) is 3D and for the most part it's fine, until the models get slow or do some eerie thing that makes it stand out.

Infinite Stratos 2: 04

Finally, some mecha action! Overall fun episode. Still isn't as good as the first season, but hey, progress!

Well nothing can be good as Charles in her prime moments, but yeah I would agree.

Personally, I'm reminded of:

And I never even watched Henneko!

Everything about Henneko was just mind bogglingly cute.
It was really remarkable.

Burn my Dread Spring of Birth version really makes me wish for the movie even faster.

Basically, he's turned a concept that sounded AMAZINGLY stupid when it was first announced (fruit-based Riders, rival dance teams, pseudo-Pokemon battles [which by episode 4 are all but written out of the show already]), so stupid that I was ready to drop Kamen Rider forever after the first info came out, into the best Kamen Rider show in years. The characters don't feel like "Kamen Rider characters", they feel like normal people thrown into an extraordinary situation (sorta like Madoka!) who are messing with powers they don't fully understand the scope of yet. Like, in the most recent episode, there's a scene where Kouta (the main Rider, Gaim)

Spoiler

realizes that "shit's for real" basically, and that he could actually die in battle as Gaim, so he decides to stop transforming

. And I hate to keep invoking the Madoka name here, but what happens after that reminds me a lot of it too (

Spoiler

his younger friend/fellow dance team member gets ahold of a belt and decides to become a Rider in Kouta's place, because "it doesn't matter if you get hurt, as long as you can help those you love"

, which just sounds like something Urobuchi would write.

Basically, the characters and the world they're in just feel so much more real and natural than the last several Rider shows. There's no clearly defined villain yet, hell we've even had one episode with no monster whatsoever. And this is also the first Rider show we've had since...man, I wanna say Kabuto? That has more than two Riders (four episodes in and we've already gotten the core four, with at least three or four more known to be coming from magazine info). And there's several plot points that haven't yet been explored that are going to be super interesting once they get to them (like what the Yggdrasil Corporation is, and why they live in a walled city and what's outside it). I'm constantly more hype for Gaim than I am for any anime I'm watching this season (in fact I'm a bit down over the fact that there's no Gaim (or Sentai/maybe Precure?) next week due to some race or something that's airing on Asahi instead). It's just so damn GOOD.

(And yeah, I know that filling the post with spoilers when I'm trying to sell someone on the show is kinda dumb. Sorry.)

Ah, thanks for the extensive answer. I'll have to look into it.

Realism was cheated out of high sales, it sounds amazing (full version vocals and instrumental), and Faylan

I'm surprised they haven't made a Beckham reference on Gintama.

The last time that Beckham was referred to as Golden Balls was probably before Gintama even started running

Faylan? I thought Realism is by Elisa, yeah its better song than the messy OP.

 

[Gintoki313]

I finally found the anime I was looking an hour for, it was called Happy Lesson. I was trying to remember a show that I watched that had some weird story involving teachers living with someone.

The dude happens to live with 5 of his teachers, not 2, or 1 like an understandable anime. 5!!!! Also I think they fight over being his mom.

Why did I watch this? I barely remember anything about this show except the art teacher. Looking back I still can't believe this show had 2 seasons, an OVA, and a special.

 

[Dedication Through Light]

Faylan? I thought Realism is by Elisa, yeah its better song than the messy OP.

But Realism and Faylans Blue Blaze are are so low

I wonder if Kyoani would make 2nd OP for KyoKanata, the B-Track of the single sound better.

I loved that show. I got into it because I thought it was going revolve around the teacher and his students, but it was around the girls. It really wan't much of a difference since almost everyone in the class was shown enough anyways, so I was glad.

I usually forget about the show, but it really is one of the better comedy's out there.

At least they decided to put the true OTP of the show on one of the disc covers.
