Sounds pretty bad....
unrelated: I don't know how I feel about these prawn chips.
I had too much Popeye's while at CEO. Really not as amazing as some say.
Granted, I still enjoyed it. I also enjoy Taco Bell. I just enjoy other places more.

My local shopping mall just got a Popeye's, so it's still a novelty for me. Popeye's and Arby's are fairly uncommon near me.
Taco Bell on the other hand, love Taco Bell. I just don't want to know what's actually in the meat.

So we actually have a cliffhanger to this episode. Neat. Didn't see the cliffhanger coming.... I mean the actual cliffhanger, not the contents of said cliff hanger.
ONCE AGAIN, apparently, when I notice something, and comment about it, shows just happen to answer it soon enough. I wish I could get this to work with Precure more often.
But yeah, Nagisa finally does more stuff thankfully, and I think there's been hinting that their mother is "special", based on the last minute of the last episode, and Riko having an instant vision of the lost dog's feelings.

It's just Ohio, except that there are more traffic accidents and you have to pay tax on Amazon purchases.

Well we have our fair share of shitty drivers.... and these are "All terrain" drivers, some take it too literally and drive on the median strips.
My condolences on the latter though.
At least we don't have to pay taxes on online purchases. :V
Not yet, I think that is to change by 2016. Whenever those fulfillment centers are going online.
nooooooooNo, looks like there's no preview for the MILF scientist girl yet.
People are saying Popeyes is amazing? I mean, I can't even remember what it tastes like, but that doesn't sound like a proper descriptor, haha.
When it comes to eating junky food, I eat more burgers than I should since I have an In n out and a Five Guys right near my work. Lots of dangerous temptations ~_~. I try to bring my own lunch as often as possible.

It's interesting watching Dokidoki and Heartcatch together and comparing Cure Sword and Cure Moonlight. They're both the more experienced Cures that join the team later, but with Moonlight, she's so obviously stronger than the other Cures. It's really exaggerated early on, less so after they all get their upgrades and level up, but even then it's pretty clear she's the strongest. Her solo fight against the Baron in the movie was pretty impressive.
Cure Sword though, she just kinda....well, you know how it is, Mana does everything. Even when Mana's not there, they're only able to win because the power of Mana was still in their hearts. -_- I guess maybe a better comparison for Cure Moonlight would be Cure Ace, but even Ace doesn't really seem that powerful after the first few times she showed up and saved them. It's all about dat Mana.

Moonlight's capabilities is definitely something that sticks to the end, but others catch up, like you said.
I think for Cure Sword though, when "joins later" is applied, it's not really much of a later, it's like... before we even get to 10. And then they keep adding more and more elements in regards to the Trump Kingdom. Cure Sword getting them involve technically, isn't even the thing that gets the stone rolling, it was Joe giving Mana the Lovie, and they came to Joe or he came to them and gave the goods.
I don't know, it's just... they made it feel as if Makoto isn't really important, and I think there was a moment to tell she was weak, mainly when she's attacked and Cure Heart joins the fight and dodges attacks like it was nothing.
What I really like about Popeye's is the biscuits. I think the chicken is hit or miss. It depends on which location you buy it from.

I've been waiting for this episode. For so god damn long. What are the chances there's actual development instead of the typical harem hiding the truth until the last episode bullcrap?
Pretty small. But a man can dream.
Who am I kidding, they've already introduced the other members of the harem so nothing will happen. Fucking Infinite Stratos syndrome.

I agree with the people who said there will probably be some reset, but it might not be Harutora's fault! Maybe Natsume might deny whatever happens or something. In the meanwhile, I would be amazed if Harutora goes for an episode or two without piecing together that Hokuto was Natsume.
Honestly, I was surprised seeing the development in this episode. I expected the show to draw it out for the full 26 episodes, lol.
Main items, sure, but sides are lacking.

HOLY SHIT DOES THERE HAVE TO BE A FUCKING CLIP EPISODE AFTER EVERY ARC? That last arc didn't even END. It just had creepy School Days smiles and Satsuki Kiryuin Senjougahara Hitagi telephone calls and now we're doing ANOTHER clip show? This has to be the fucking third one in 16 episodes. What in the fuck is this bullshit?
It's either lazy or fucking trolling of a new and unique flavor.

Corvo apparently can't stop watching clipshows apparently.
Gotta clip em son.

Who said I actually watch these episodes? I start it up, see it is a clip show, flip my shit and move on to the next episode. But the sheer number of these things in Monogatari SS is egregious to say it nicely.

I guess Digimon aren't the only ones subjected to getting ugly redesigns.
This whole reset is kinda interesting, more that there's a set number of final bosses to take down. But that's about it.

The pacing in this episode felt a bit weird again. There were too many comedic bits in the first half to raise the stakes like they really should've been, and it was resolved kind of lamely
Not a bad episode, but one of the weaker in this series.
Is this the last episode this season?

although Juri apologizing to Lila was nice, if a bit "You're fixed forever now so let's forgive you of all the crazy stuff you did."

Liars are liars whether fair or filthy.
Monogatari SS 17
I'm confused on this show's chronology now. I assume that Nekoshiro > Mayoi Zombie > Shinobu Time, but I really don't know when Nadeko Medusa takes place now. Presumably some time after the first day of school?
Bueno is pretty good, but Cabana has the best (and cheapest) breakfasts. That eggs mexicana platter goddamn.
That'd be the stockholm syndrome taking hold.
------------
Currently catching up on everything, pretty much. I would like suggestions - so if anybody is offering…
Yamato is already in the bag.
Only watched Free! and Watamote from this season, so it's been distinctly mediocre on my end.
------------
Kill la Kill is getting good, but there's been absolutely no characterisation to speak of. I guess some don't look for that kind of stuff - but there's only so many scenes of Satsuki standing ominously/sitting drinking tea that I can tolerate.

Non Non Biyori and Samurai Flamenco!
And Gundam Build FIghters if you haven't yet.
I do not think Log Horizon has been mentioned yet, this is the MMORPG series we needed and deserved after the long dark teatime of the soul that is Sword Art Online.

I wouldnt say ars nova is a harem anime, at most 2 people actually like's the main character, everyone else either likes another person or dont have romantic feelings for anyone at all.

Someone who reads the books can tell you, I think nadeko takes place before most of the events in this arc.
I was really pretty surprised by this. I thought for sure it would follow on from the end. Did not expect it to be a Nidaime prequel
I thought it was nice but I felt it suffered from too many characters and not enough time.
it couldn't move on from the end. nidaime ended in the middle of nowhere right before a big arc.
