Most shows have a "sound director" credit and the such. The usage of the soundtrack in a given episode is probably decided between the storyboarder and the episode director, with oversight by the series director as always. The article mentions how Toei tacitly expected (expects?) their episode directors to manage the voice recordings themselves, which is unusual in other studios.

There needs to be a Sailor Moon transformation next episode.
Well, I don't know if anybody's checked recently, but leaving women in a garden with snakes can have such fantastic results.
And there are most certainly snakes in the garden.

It's fun. I wouldn't consider it great, but it was worth a watch.

And suddenly, considering a dynamic between me and Hitokage, I feel like I just signaled my own downfall....
Who hated on it?

Yu Kobayashi plays some Mexican exchange student. You're not getting that with a lameo dub.

I saw two episodes. Humor didn't really hit a home run for me IMO. It was funny in some parts, but not necessarily the kind of comedy I was looking for.
Galilei Donna 6
This scene. Just, this whole scene. I can't. The emotional dissonance created by this swell of triumphant music when Hozuki's pendant starts to do, umm, something like it's some great achievement or accomplishment or grand victory over adversity IMMEDIATELY AFTER
is just too much. Is this somehow supposed to compensate for the fact that everyone just stood around while
? That is some incredibly breakneck and awkward mood whiplash.
Just consider some of the contrivances that were necessary to set the stage for the events of this episode. A vague illness in need of emergency medical attention is used for the second time in three episodes. All of the major players of the story just happen to be at the same hospital in Nowheresgrad, Siberia at the same time.
only happens because the pirates are the world's worst marksmen with the world's slowest reaction times. A man who has just been shot in the arm is sent to try and fix the generator when there are several able-bodied people available. It's really astounding. At least the first person that Hozuki trips over in the hospital didn't hand her one of Galileo's horcruxes this time.
Current odds of being a prequel to Overman King Gainer: 30%

Roberto murders several people in cold blood in an unchecked fit of egotistical, self-aggrandizing bloodlust
people were casually being murdered left and right as punctuation marks in an insane lecture

Thanks to everyone for the answers on the director/writer question.

Oh, this is neat -- Tonari no Seki-kun is getting JAM Project founder and legendary mecha/tokusatsu theme song performer Ichiro Mizuki to perform an insert song for a show-within-the-show.
Also, Kana Hazawa is doing the actual show's OP, for what it's worth.

Every time I watch this I'm afraid Nagisa's eyes will literally devour Tomoya.
Also a random girl was carving her starfish... That kind of sounds like innuendo.
In other news, Tomoya's dad is depressing.

Also that girl built a robot. So that happened. If this all turns out to be a dream or something of that girl I think might go all School Days on someone.
We've already reached the caring for her when she's sick part of the pre-relationship I guess.

Kyoukai no Kanata 08
A pretty interesting episode. Nice action and wouldn't mind seeing more into Akihito's backstory here.

Explains a little why toei has been able to nurture so many talented directors like isao takahata,hayao Miyazaki,Leji Matsumoto,konosuke uda and many others.
Both but mainly the OVAs.

Doesn't read OPs, especially not his own

There is no man or woman alive who can resist the Sugita.
Oh, I wonder if that sort of integration means one could end up just watching the show.
It's great, though it annoys me how after season 2 they just skip a good chunk of manga chapters and go "Here, have your ending even though we skipped much of the important drama, bye!"
Oh Lala, you never got enough screentime in either version
Probably. I mean the direction is much better in the OVAs but the context is there in the TV series.
Samurai Flamenco 6
I wasn't sure at first, but as of this episode I'm completely convinced that going full goofball is the right thing for the show. I'm already having more fun with SamFlam than any other show this season and I'll be thrilled if it can consistently keep amping up the absurdity.
played totally straight was the moment that I finally thought "this is golden".

If I were to wear the signet ring, would I get randomly accosted by people with rainbow hair and magically unbuttoning shirts?

Ookiku Furikabutte - The Summer Tournament Chapter 13
Basically wraps everything up finale episode which I really enjoyed.
The whole focus was on the team and the goals they were trying to make for themselves which really helped with seeing how high their ambitions were.
We also got pretty much the turning point in Abe and Mihashi's relationship which is really the best part of the episode. It's pretty amazing to see their development from the start to now.
Had an absolute blast watching this show, since I really liked all the characters and even the long games were great to watch. Would love to see another season of this but I guess reading the manga is the best I'll get at this point.

I really wish I would have waited a few months before buying this. Could have saved at least $50 and gotten a nice lithograph and postcards to boot.
School Rumble 1
Maybe it's cause I'm a little buzzed, but I think I liked this a little bit more than I should have. Or at least more than I usually would. I'm not usually a fan of this sort of random comedy, but I liked this. I liked when the dude was reading her giant scroll love letter into the night. And then it turned out she didn't sign it. And lol at that random cg car right in the middle of that bike chase.
I hope the motorcycle dude wins. That dude Tenma likes seems to be pretty much a sock puppet at this point. Least motorcycle dude has a personality.

I remember watching the first episode of School Rumble a few years ago and not caring for its humor, Maybe I should try it again.
They had 4 weeks of presales last year before the 12 days iirc.
