It's what we in these parts like to call anime.
It's true, it's from a live stream.
Based on a manga... stolen anime designs. Ok.

Maybe I shouldn't have dropped this at episode 2.

Now I'm even more glad I dropped this after one episode.

Even if this is bogus, I'm a sucker for a Kamiya Hiroshi main role.
Amazing.

Could be the same reason why Daisuki does not have it ready?

Holy fuck I'm back in if true.
Pokemon XY 9
Lol, well, can't say I expected that to be the reason why Clemont wasn't taking care of his gym. The battle was pretty good this time around, and the ep as a whole had great pacing. I probably mentioned this before, but I haven't really watched Pokemon until this season, and I must say that I'm really enjoying the OST. It's got that grand (and nostalgic) JRPG feel to it.
And the best part of this episode? No team rocket--at all.

Yami to Boushi to Hon no Tabibito - Episode 4
More forgettable characters introduced, then they die so no changes there at least. Preview for next episode looks...interesting to say the least.

I look forward to reading your impressions for episode 05.
Bahahahahahaha this sounds amazing.
Yeah the chances of me not watching something with a Kamiya Hiroshi protag and an Iwasaki Taku soundtrack are basically zero.
Coppelion - 10
Well, this week wasn't so bad, some cool funny action set pieces. No-Sense is the best bro. This show started looking really grim and quiet, now its mood is completely different. It also looked a bit closer to quality of earlier episodes after looking quite ugly for a bit.
Next week looks quite exciting, FINAL BOSS arrives.

Kyoukai no Kanata Episode 10 White World
Well Mirai definitely deserved it and had it coming.
Pokemon Origin Episode 2
Was initialy confused why they would choose Pokemon Tower of all places to show and not some of the gym fights but then was able to see that they made an actually good decision. Hearing and seeing Green was litrally the best thing to this whole special series even,
.
Some of the remixed or is it rearranged music could have had a faster pace to it, every song felt way slowed down.

Hopefully Hiromi was not a part of this plan so he could remain pure. Cant believe that was the entire purpose to mirai, makes her seem even worse of a character than I could even imagine. Older Nase too even

and then at the end with him on the tree trying to say he didn't get scared and run out. Red will never forget the hug and tears even.

PREACHJUNA 5
What kind of person actually looks at water and says "Oh no there's fluoride in this, it isn't artsy at all." I mean seriously, that's who the writer is: that nutso who was worried about bodily fluids from Dr. Strangelove. This entire episode is like this. Observe:
THIS HAMBURGER TASTES LIKE DEFORESTATION!!!! Meanwhile, SEED, the good guys, have apparently released a virus that causes paralysis if you eat GMOs. These people are actually eco terrorists. Eco terrorists who are busy mind raping a teenage girl into doing their bidding. Oh and hand sanitizer is EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVIL.
Query: does CGI that is the visual equivalent of ethnic cleansing help the environment?
Fuck you and your feelings mom! The environment is trying to teach us a lesson by making this hamburger kill my not-boyfriend! I don't give a shit about human beings! GMOs, mom! G MOTHER FUCKING Os.
And now medicine is poison. I'd just like to point out that this show is actively encouraging teenagers to not use medicine. I mean, sure, sometimes people take a pill for everything, but teaching people that they can get along without relying so much on the artificial, but teaching people that medicine is poisoning them is seriously problematic.
And that's the problem with Arjuna. More than the message, its the delivery. Nothing can be done in a subtle way. The idea that Arjuna can't eat city food after enjoying delicious natural food could work and send the message that maybe we should eat more delicious natural food and less manufactured food (or whatever), but making Arjuna scream after barely biting a burger and making medicine and burgers kill Tokio is just way, way overboard.
To be perfectly honest, I'm sort of annoyed with the idea that food and medicine make Juna freak out, but not clothing, which is just as mechanical. Not that I honestly want to see Juna naked because she probably doesn't shave because its killing hair or because razors are Satan's swords or God only knows I mean hand soap has already been shown to be evil.

CorvoSol: It's more about the rampant overuse of anti-biotics and the attitude that all bacteria are bad. Now, you might wonder why wasn't it more clear about this and why didn't it go about things differently, but then it wouldn't be Arjuna.
A lot of what the show brings up are valid and important issues. The show is just incapable of handling them well.

Well yeah, like I said, I don't think the message is what pisses me off. It's the delivery, specifically that every single thing is overblown. Why couldn't Tokio just feel ill? Why does he have to be dying?
Because Chris is kind.
Kind of a douche. I'm only 5 episodes in and I'm so sick of hearing "Why fight". WHY DID YOU GIVE HER THE POWER TO FIGHT IF YOU DIDN'T WANT HER TO?
But those are the BEST characters!
Crunchyroll is a great service. Im happy that todays anime fans have this option. Its come a long way since the days of much less legal ways of having to resort to watching. People can preview something easily and it does probably lead to better sales if its good.
Could this be list worthy?
Keeeeep going! Does it make sense yet?
I am enjoying this so much. Theres a certain episode in particular you will probably go all :corvo.
I cant wait

Yami to Broccoli to Hon no Tabibito: Episode 5
So the whole broccoli thing takes up about 5 minutes of the entire thing. What is broccoli? Is raw broccoli good? How seductively can we make a scantily clad girl eat a piece of broccoli? It's all answered here!
Going past the ethics of broccoli and the harshest filters yet lets go to see some cave people who are even more braindead than the ones in the Super Mario World cartoon. Our Oogtar of the group is called Quille Remember that!!!
Did I mention before that the music in this is really bad. That random panflute noise halfway through this episode is really jarring and I'm not sure what they were thinking there.
Then Quille then gets offered to Lillith as her dinner tonight and she's completely fine with that but then a strange cat thing with massive lopsided eyes appears and causes no trouble at all because this anime can't do tension properly.
In the next episode:

45 bucks is "half price", I guess.
But man, order only through their website or Kinokuniya stores? I guess that's great if you live in NYC or SF.

Kill La Kill 10
Whew, thankfully this episode didn't kill (la kill) the pacing like I was fearing. Best episode in a while, after some episodes where it felt like it was kinda spinning without going anywhere. Seems like it's hopefully getting back on track now. Stuff may even actually get real for reals at some point.

Kill la Kill Episode 10:
Well now, that episode certainly contained a massive dose of character development as indeed we get the expected insights into Houka Inumuta and Nonon Jakuzure as we get two battles for the price of one. Also, the more we learn about the henchmen, the more we are learning about Lady Satsuki. Hell, even Ruyko gets a smidge of that this episode as we learn that Mako's antics actually soothe her and make her relax. Indeed, Nonnon raises a good point, what is Satsuki planning, somebody so cruel and icey is now showing mercy. Also, this episode contains your recommended dose of 100 percent pure distilled liquid crystal Les Yay. Maybe not even that since it does seem that Nonnon is in love with Satsuki, though I get the feeling that such emotions may not be reciprocal. The Senketsku is also evolving at a rapid rate, too rapid for some and it seems Nudist Beach is re-entering the picture along with a new player. Yea, all and all this was a damn good episode.

Not how I expected the ep to go but was good though slower pace ep.

OH I THINK YOU KNOW WHAT IT IS
Kill La Kill 10-
These fights have really not been that interesting. The Inumata fight was boring and while the Nonon fight was better, it's still missing some oomph to it. The choreography is just flat as fuck. Also Satsuki being a philosopher at the age of like 5 is ridiculous.

So gais, is it a good or a bad thing that I have Rin dressed up in this costume in Project mirai 2 primarily because it makes her look kind of like Kon?
(Admittedly the mofumofu is missing, but it's Rin and Rin is amazing so that kind of makes up for it.)
