The writing has been killed on the wall for a long time now, honestly.
Let's do it.
But yeah, this is an interesting question. I mean, with the KLK ones I think it's fairly obvious the Aniplex translation is iffy because that one line in the lemon scene is just bizarre, but KnK seems more... mysteeerious.
Well you can use the term kill in select phrases to refer to killing time or something abstract, but not necessarily something physical.
Lol, I remember that. I think I prefer that version.
Oh man i noticed that too. Season ruined.

Yep, definitely in the running for my show of the year.

I was also okay with this.
Someone get cnet on the case since he seems to be aware of what things mean.
Do they know they're tampering with tradition and history?
Horo or Holo? Choose now.
for the bucket scene, pretty sure she said 'Baketsu o koroshita'' I killed the bucket!', the only thing I remember from yesterday because it was funny, it's supposed to be funny I think, seeing how she's so sensitive to objects but doesn't care about hurting the boy.
That fan translation is VERY liberal if you ask me.

IS has it locked up after the cat pajama scene. I have the combined voting power of cajun and firehawk behind me!!
is english your first language?
"Ichika, you're nasty." I did look it up for the good of us all.
Yeah, we're keeping the same VVV OT. My current plan is to remake the OP to accurately reflect the characters and maybe add some S2 key visuals and trailer links. Next week is an exam week for me, so can't guarantee it'll be ready for Thursday, but I'm going to try my best.
Are we going to go down this route?

Cat PJs save us!
Makes him sound like a sex fiend. I approve.
Whoever has the film rights abroad seems so terrified of letting people actually see it in theaters that I almost can't blame other people anymore.
Almost.

[Kill la Kill]
One thing I don't get about this first episode is the comparisons people make between it and Utena. Tonally, stylistically, symbolically and visually it's a very different work. Yes, there are students who fight each other in a very exaggerated highschool and you have an all-powerful student council but those have been tropes of many other titles.
The clearest inspirations are from Go Nagai, namely Cutie Honey which features the same perverse sense of humor, exaggerated comedy and basic set up - Spoilers for Cutie Honey and Kill la Kill:
. Go Nagai has also produced a work with an inappropriately dressed female character battling evil at a ridiculous highschool (and bailing her friend out from trouble) - Kekko Kamen.
Moreover, the concept of battling at a highschool is not particularly uncommon especially when you have 4 sub bosses and once main boss to fight which is the classic formula for such things. Sukeban Deka covered this very crowd and all Saki had to work with was a god damn yo-yo.
I just don't see a direct or strong Utena influence.

Ichika is a pure maiden who knows nothing about sex.
Happy birthday!
May your garden stay pure and clean for eons to come!
Oh that's fine, but I think the awesome-quotient is gonna stay high. There's something about the style I just love, and I can't really say why, other than that it fuels a lot of endorphins into my brain when I watch it.
So good.
I do think youre right AWESOMEBEAR. It should remain at a high level of badassery.
Its hyped because LWA was so damned good for a short and Trigger has a lot of talent and a good Gainax feel to it.
The MC is INCREDIBLY dense. Its pretty awe inspiring how stupid he actually is.

I want the show to be about the bucket then! Would be more entertaining.
depends. how many sex scenes does this route have?

Kevin Sorbo.
moe.
I'd rather IS win than AoT!
IS is the most important anime of the year and must be treated with respect!
Let our campaigning begin.
This is AnimeGAF, so... none?

I don't think that's entirely fair. I can't speak for other countries, but here in the US GKids has the rights, and they just don't have the kind of distribution network that would be needed to give Wolf Children any sort of substantial release. Which is a shame.
It is god tier obliviousness given s1, but I have some sympathy given I can suffer from it too.
That said its just the stupid normal way to avoid writing the MC choosing that they all use. Makes me think of US TV and what they do to avoid the Moonlighting fate.

It is literally the only reason why they mentioned it.
I need to put these people on a list so I can tell who's attempting to sell me on lies.
If I'm lying, I'm only lying to myself. Because I want it to be true.

Yet, still an infinite number of orgasms. Weird how that works!

Reminds me of people selling their games as Metroidvanias.

That's like saying Chuu2 is better than Hyouka.

It's still better than Okada's latest masterpiece.
