The dangers of incest.
Thats absolutely horrific.
Its Yaya. Id totally take a sword slash to the face for Yaya. Well in an anime. I imagine IRL that would suck.
Hyouka is hard to watch under any circumstance sometimes.
Got it. Well, all in due time, then. Pretty sure Cajun'd flip his lid if I watched this prior to Arjuna, hahaha.
True, true.
The reason KyoAni is making stuff like KnK now is to appeal to Hyouka-haters.
Yeah... it wasn't exactly memorable for me as demonstrated earlier.

This soundtrack, this animation, this direction, these feelings...
None of the bullshit and all of the good stuff. Fuck the serious Gundam stuff, I already want a sequel to this.

Actually no. The Monogatari shows are worthy. Very worthy indeed.
What show were we talking about? I forgot. Must have been forgettable.

This is untrue!
SAO.
If only we could forget about that.
Oh dear god no.

I was okay with its length honestly, but to each their own.
In all honesty, dialogue wise from the beginning, I thought I was feeling shades of KnK writing, but nowhere near as bad, but it became better over the course of the show. It's why I'm commenting on how I like the improvements to the show, because the less it reminds me of KnK, the better.
Of course, it also has the benefit of not sucking at any point.
Well I think part of it could be due to their descent, but I think the constant mentions of Hyouka, which are far more prevalent than some examples
like Precure
I'd say the main problem is that the few remaining detractors don't really make any arguments against it, they just make one-line dismissive posts over and over again.

You can tell when Reiko Yoshida wrote an episode, because the dialogue in her episodes tends to flow smoother than in the episodes written by someone else. Still, this was a fun episode and it's nice to get to the first real race of the series.
I am really enjoying this post-credits subplot with Onoda introducing Imaizumi to the, um, unique wonders of magical girl anime.

Glad that Onoda was able to swap to the road racer; I appreciate that the series didn't try to present him as so magically talented he could win with an ordinary bike.

You also contribute to that toxic atmosphere, among others, but to be fair that's not entirely your fault.

Yozakura Quartet: Hana no Uta 6
It felt like most of this episode was sakuga, that's how awesome it looked. The pacing was impressive as well; the action was spread out and each character given screen time, avoiding any boring moments without making things feel rushed. That balance was struck well in both this and the previous episode, where Ao and Kotoha were featured a bit more. The last sequence was an interesting turn of events and a visual delight.
This might actually be the show I'm enjoying the most this season at the moment. On top of being quality, it's like it was designed to appeal to me. Urban fantasy with off-the-wall action set to electronic music, crazy lightning and dust effects and Kotoha's voice.

Man, it's been days/weeks since I watched a bit of anime. Been watching stuff on the box again (Masterchef, Truckers). So much like when I got tired of tv and I turned to anime, I've now gone back to tele because I over binged on anime. That and I guess nothing this season has truly grabbed me.
How many times have we had the same damn argument over this? How many times? Nobody is changing their opinion and it's a waste of time for both sides.
You should elaborate.
If my disdain for their lame criticisms is too evident, it's only because they are also so lazy about it.
One-liner dismissive arguments tend to produce a bad atmosphere and hostility from both sides. If you dislike something(or like something), you should only comment if you're also prepared to justify your assertions. You don't have to write an essay, but one-liner arguments rarely suffice.
I know how that is. Occasionally it happens to me. I just get tired of doing one thing and move on.
I'm not even sure what the argument is about. I even liked the show. I just didnt love it.

Hyouka 11.5
Poolside hijinx with a more boring Oreki. And puns.
The SISTER is back and stacked for orders (cough). Not a recap at least.

I have literally written paragraphs about my issues with the show before. Ultimately it's a subjective thing and you among others disagree. Why should I continually write essentially the same argument with almost assuredly the same outcome?
I wasn't talking about you.
On the plus side, Hyouka arguments are still less mind-numbing than gaming side.
Says the man totally tsun over his Mio pillow and willing to watch a thread burn over it.

Now it is SERIOUS ONODA TIME.
That said, the after-credits sequence was more entertaining than the actual episode, lol. I want to see more in the saga of Imaizumi's magical girl adventures! Go go Onoda, sneakily transform the cycling club into the anime club you always dreamed of! XD
New bike get!

Yozakura ep6 was crazy. It was like OVA animation. Definitely the best action scene this season/year.
I swear they're just making up prefixes now. IThere are only like 6 girls right and I know each is associate with an animal but the rest makes no sense.

Hyouka's actually pretty easy to watch. It's a show that will never fail to put you in a good mood.
I think it was just about the perfect length. Especially given how perfect Episode 11 was as a piece of television. If the arc was en episode shorter, there wouldn't have been enough time for everything to come together.

best to learn those things early , this is an after war state after all .. If they do well they will be just as well trained as the main character.
More divisive than SAO talk.
They made Kyoukai no Kanata because we wanted them to.
Back when the original CM aired it didn't have catgirl maid mums and glasses fetishes in; it was entirely devoted to action, save maybe one shot? There was no picture given of the horrors that lay within the dialogue - not even in the on screen text.
False advertising indeed.
No, they just didn't have anything better to work with.

so so good.
coupled with the lovely art the show will remain in my mind for a very long time.
Let's talk about Iwao Teraoka. The guy storyboarded both Yozakura 6 and Build Fighter 6. How good is he at choreographing action? Soooo good.
The new Ando?

Looks like he also did 8 episodes of FMA:B. Maybe I should watch that. I really liked the original, but kind of assumed nobody was going to beat Yutapon's action scenes and never watched Brotherhood.
I don't really think he has any directing ambitions, so probably not. He's just an animator who worked for years at Sunrise before starting to storyboard a lot of action stuff. I think starting with Ergo Proxy and Bakumatsu Iroha. I notice him from time to time, like when he did good episodes in Gundam 00, but I was just reminded of his talent a lot yesterday since I watched Yozakura 6 and Build Fighters 6 on the same day, and they both have superb melee action.

Chitendo needs to learn how to filter, she keeps getting side tracked when she has anthros to sell!
Habanero is already on the down slopes without even doing anything. Database be databasing, Oreki being.... lazy I guess. Giving props on the fact that the festival will be fleshed out and won't be a 2 episode affair, but it's more important to see how it ends in the long run.
