You know, I realized I didn't ever finish Fate/Zero as during that time I paused my marathon of it to marathon through the first 7 episodes of Attack on Titan which I became hooked onto. Now after watching... 5 series?... Fate/Zero popped back into my head and now it's time to finish, right at when the second half starts.
Fate/Zero 13
Damn I forgot how amazing the production quality in Fate/Zero was.Gilgamesh and Berserker's aerial flight was awesome and since Sakura is shown as the sister of Rin with the same hair color I wonder how her hair became purple? As for Caster's summon I wonder if the show will explicitly name it as I really want to be C'thulu.
Revolutionary Girl Utena 30
Akio stop seducing Utena. What I have learned from this episode is Akio exudes some kind of magical pheromone.
"I've been seeing this car a lot lately." Did... did you seriously just notice?
Anthy was majorly creepin' in this episode.
There's too much to sacrifice for that though.
I'm fairly certain that Akio was conceived of the pheromones like Anakin Skywalker.
Blood C 7
It's Morphing Time!!
I swear I've seen this multi armed Samurai swordsman giant somewhere before, I just don't remember where . . .
I can't shake the feeling that I have definitely seen this cryptic, yet adorable little mammal mascot intent on granting school girl's wishes before, but where?
So yeah, here are my wild guesses based on what I have seen so far:
Saya is her own mother, or rather Saya is an Elder Bairn, has no mother, and that's all a lie that Tadayoshi's fed her to keep her fighting the Elder Bairn for him. Tadayoshi is the one who broke the covenant, which was a St. George's Dragon set up, where humans fed humans to the Elder Bairns in exchange for not total annihilation. Tadayoshi's wife was the last sacrifice, possibly to Saya, and that's what that is about.
Edward Cullen is also an Elder Bairn who made a bet with Saya that humanity couldn't beat the Elder Bairns or something, and Saya made a deal with Kyubey to become a Magical Girl to beat him, but sold her memory as the price. Edward Cullen's barometers are because it is getting hot in here, so take off all your clothes.
Saya is having an anneurism, and none of this is real at all. The lancing light pain in her skull is piercing glimpses of reality where she is dying /90skidsshowconspiracytheory.
Has CLAMP ever made a show which was not Awesome/"Awesome"?

An identity crisis implies you had an identity to begin with.
KnK has no identity. It doesn't have a story. It doesn't even have real characters. There's no there there. It's empty and void, a soulless husk. It's nothing but a mechanical collection of things the author saw and enjoyed in other works. Every story ever written is full of tropes, but it does not follow that just mashing a bunch of tropes together means you've created a story.
I blame TV Tropes for causing people to seem to believe this.
I'm watching KnK for the animation, I swear.
TVTropes helped call attention to common elements throughout media, but also dumbed down discussion as now everything get shoehorned into one category or another.

I'm sorry peaceiscloser but your idea would have made for a terrible show. All the good guys teaming up together is how every other show does it and its dumb and unrealistic everytime. R2's ending is one of the things I thought the Code Geass series actually did right. In spite of all the batshit craziness, they actually found an out and made an ending that was plenty satisfying.
However, the arms of Britannia depicted on the flag are not correct in the heraldic sense. For example, in the arms the serpent's Vert (green) meets the field's Sable (black) - both Vert and Sable are colors and thus may only meet metal, such as Argent (silver/white) and Or (gold/yellow). A similar mistake is seen in the mantling - the green leaves or cloth around the arms. The rule has it that the color is - unless the opposite is specified - always on the outside and the metal on the inside, while two colors may never meet even in the mantling. The lack of a motto despite the existance of The closest attempt to blazoning the depicted coat of arms of Britannia would be:
"Sable a lion Or langued Gules and a serpent Vert langued Gules(or proper), both winged Argent , fighting and intertwined. Mantled Vert and Imperially crowned proper."

It also doesn't help that the site itself feels like You have to be in the Know to even get what's being referenced. It's so dumb.
I think they've been moving away from the let's-make-all-the-trope-names-in-jokes thing, although I haven't visited it extensively in a while.
As far as I know, Google shut down the site, and it's been dead ever since.I haven't either. That sounds nice, but at the same time... I really don't want the chance to get sucked in to see if they did.

which is why they need more fanservice eps to lessen the pain.
These aren't bad guesses. I'm not saying if any of them are right or wrong per se, but there is logic behind most of them.
So I take it his amazing powers of seduction aren't a plot point? He's just that good?
We need some joint Touga Akio stripping action like in the Sega Saturn opening. The car doesn't count, despite being pretty great.
As far as I care to know, I'm entirely correct.LIAR
Save 'N Quit said:He chooses Akane.
That wouldn't be so bad but she loses her red haired, fiery personality and the author explicity makes Shizuku cry about not being chosen.
Unforgivable!Save 'N Quit said:Nope.
He stays as a male in both the LN and Manga.
The characters in that act like complete idiots, then, I assume? I imagine I wouldn't be able to withstand it. I did manage to watch all of Sailor Moon, but that was quite a trial sometimes, between all of the repetition and how incredibly stupid the main character is... never tried to watch any Precure other than a couple of episodes of HeartCatch, though, and it didn't interest me enough to keep watching.KirbYayoi said:How will A Black Falcon be able to withstand Smile Precure?
The world may never know.
Wair, are you confused, or not? You say you don't understand it, but then that it wasn't as confusing as you expected... so which is it? I thought the last episode did a great job of explaining just about everything, so as to avoid Evangelion's problem just about completely.fertygo said:Serial Experiment Lain - 13
OK, Now this eps I don't really understand shit of it.
That was awesome ride btw, I can't say much of it but I'm so engrossed and immersed with each episode, its so captivating..
The story is much less confusing than I thought will be like the last two eps of Evangelion for the whole show, I can get the most of information aside for last episode, not counting the meta and symbolism though.. those kind of stuff always passing my head.
Amazing show.
Dual's good... might even be my favorite Tenchi-related thing apart from the first two seasons of the Tenchi OVA. It's reasonably well thought through, for its genre particularly, as you noticed.CorvoSol said:Dual!! Parallel Trouble Adventures 8
Yeah, this is a good point. Natsume's look and voice are both pretty much entirely feminine. Sure, she's in a boys' uniform, but that doesn't mean she look anything like a boy. She doesn't, and isn't trying very hard to seem like one either. How exactly have her classmates not noticed that she's a girl? The series hasn't even attempted to explain it.Basileus777 said:Tokyo Ravens 5
Others actually believing that Natsume is a guy is well, way beyond my suspension of belief. I had though others were just going along with the pretense, but actually believing it considering her character design, voice, and name? This is worse than even the usual unconvincing anime character pretending to be a different gender.
Sometimes I read descriptions of the story of something before watching/playing it, so I can decide whether I actually want to watch it or not... so yeah, I don't like surprises either. I'd often rather spoil myself first, so I can avoid the pain of watching something I would end up hating... such as, perfect example, that horrible atrocity of a series there, Code Geass! I mean, I disliked the first episode and would not have continued watching anyway (stupid pointless violence mixed, no thanks), butpeaceiscloser said:Actually, I really don't.
It makes it so people get antsy about spoilers, and then they overhype twists ruining the impact for anybody who hears about it. I actually prefer my stuff to have minimal mystery.
There are a few very notable exceptions, though.
Little would those people complaining know that the TV ending of Evangelion was actually by far the better one, compared to the EoE ending that followed... and given the way the new movies are going, I expect it to probably be even worse.JCG said:If we're talking scale here...the TV ending of Evangelion was more abrupt and the real world controversy was so much greater that it led to some Japanese people sending in letters with death threats.
Beyond the Boundary 4
It was okay I guess.
Beyond the Boundary 5
Akio is sexy. Don't worry your pretty little head about why.
This is how I always answer the door
Make it a harem building competition between Akio and Sexy Sensei.There should be a dating sim where you play as Akio. It'd be the easiest game ever.

UI design is always an underrated element of these kinds of shows. Is Yamato finished yet?
You don't even know how right you are.
moeblobs fighting demon things. each one has there own twist. highschool hijinx. moeblob fanservice.
better than hyouka at the very least.

Also, yeah, it's the best TV anime ever for a reason! Such an incredible show. So the question is, how long will it be until you can look at power lines in the same way again... .
Fate/Zero 15
This episode was great for each of the Servants were featured doing battle.Caster finally got taken out and Matou got pwnt by Tousaka. Really interested in what Berserker's identity is (also Assassin's as I don't recall it being revealed earlier, if it did then I forgot).
I say that the new OP and ED are nice to listen to with the new ED being superior to the first. As for the new OP, I really like the intro of it... the rest of it makes me wish for the previous OP back.
Yozakura Quartet - Episode 5
Holy shit. That was a blast to watch. No lewdness, action packed, stuff getting real, great animation, no signs of the FBI coming for me. Fantastic stuff. This episode was produced by Trigger too. What a great showing. The only bad part is that it looks like a two-parter, so I'm going to have to wait a few days for the conclusion. When this show is good, it's surprisingly really good.
The part towards the end definitely tugged at a few heartstrings, but I felt like they didn't develop these characters well enough for it to really matter. If they really are gone, as a viewer I don't feel sympathetic. What was their reason for being in the story? Will it provide Hozuki with the resolve to protect someone later in the show, or will they write it out and forget it even happened? Hopefully the former will happen (so it'll at least have an effect on the characters), but I'm expecting the latter considering how rushed it feels. In a 22+ episode show, that wouldn't have happened until the second or last episode in that arc.
so someone mentioned there was fanservice in kyoukai no kanata 6
And my lawd there is. kyoani fanservice is the best. half the eps is shower scenes.Other half is other pandering stuff.
we do get some neat dance thingy though.
undulation away.
sexy guys and gals!
what the fuck is this? >:l

Fate/Zero 16
The end of honor indeed. What can I say I really like this episode for showing the flaws of positive concepts such as hope and honor; Saber is cool and all but I find her ideals naiveKiritsugu is such a badass compared to(which is also carried onto Fate/Stay Night)his adopted son Shirou.
