Well clearly yes. Thankfully I don't understand most of the Japanese memes so I can enjoy the crazy super science story.
That makes it a faithful representation of the source material.

Oh shit its the aliens from Mars Attacks!
This shit went bananas. Griffith please don't do this you greedy bastard, I thought we had something you and I.
Surerly you wouldn't let your friends who've been with you since the beginning perish for your own hatred. This all came out of nowhere, we were just saving your skinny ass from the dungeons. Griffith please.

So with the new season starting/started, I guess I've now had to decide on what to try (if available). Which is looking like:
Log Horizon 2
Your Lie in April
Donten ni Warau
Wolf Girl and the Black Prince
Yona of the Dawn
Ushinawareta Mirai wo Motomete
Danna ga Nani wo Itteiru ka Wakaranai Ken
Denki-Gai no Honya-san
Orenchi no Furo Jijou
Shirobako
+ SAO 2 and Akame Ga Kill
Guess there's some stuff to try after all.

Question about the Hunter x Hunter adaptation -- I'm up to the start of the Chimera Ant arc, but I've heard the beginning of the arc is rather slow. I'd be willing to read the manga up to wherever the arc hits its stride. Any opinions on this method?

You could do that, but you may have trouble linking the manga chapter you end on to the anime episode you want to start on and avoiding spoilers.
And it's also very speedbumpy, it slows down and speeds up a lot. You can just do whatever you prefer.

The past few screenshots have looked absolutely nuts. I must know a lot less about Berserk than I thought.

That's it mostly ONLY because i'm loving the books and even then i liked it i know it's really flawed.
i enjoyed mahouka anime , but
I can't hate it but i can't really like it.
WIXOSS wasn't bad. it had a nice balance of DESPAIR , CRAZY , SUFFERING and just a tiny amount of HOPE so you can keep going.
This was a meal that you could eat only if you can accept the incest sauce that comes with the meal.
Dxd is a franchise that know what it wants and isn't afraid.
I like it.. it's perverted and sometimes it's ok for it to be.
I can't hate a anime where his MC actually work his ass of to get his harem ( i'm looking at you blade dance )
Regardless of what you choose , you're not escape from a very impressive wfritting device in this chapter .. so my guess is to keep what you were doing
I must be really dead inside. That was the last episode I watched of Yamato before putting on indefinite hold but I remember thinking that the type of emotional climax they were aiming for in the episode was totally disproportionate to how much time had been spent with the ship's robot thus far.
Probably another case of my bad opinions though.
Unwanted harems are a burden aren't they.
I like DxD, more the books than the anime though.
Sounds good, will watch once I've cleared out some of the backlog.

Honestly, im at a loss for words right now. I.. what? how? WHAT. (Not sure if Im allowed to post certain images)
First of all, why hasnt there been a followup series, this was made 17 goddamn years ago.
Second, where can I get the continued story? Manga only? I've never read a manga but this is pushing me over the edge
-
Alright, this show is pretty amazing. Great characters, designs, art and I cant complain at the soundtrack either. It went pretty dark and gory sometimes and I absolutely love it. I went into this expecting (through osmosis) edgy MC killing big ass monsters in a demon realm. Only that was waiting in the end.
Instead I got a buildup, seeing the journey to this crazy end. Filled with plotting, battles and some bromance. Getting attached to the three main characters, and now I feel betrayed by one of them. It hurts.
I would lie if I said I wouldnt have wanted some more monster slaying in between. First meeting with Zodd is probably one of the things I will remember the most. But I'm not disappointed in what I got instead. Sure sometimes it went a little slow and stupid, like that returning general, but I can't say I was ever bored.
It's nearly 3 in the morning and I'm going to bed. See you later Guts.

Usagi Drop 3
Still a sweet and heartfelt tale of a man trying to raise his adopted daughter
From the New World 1
I'm still a bit in the dark even though I've got the general premise down - people start developing psychic powers a millienium ago and we now live in a world somewhat used to them but things are not as they seem. Good sense of atmosphere & mystery. I look forward to seeing more.
Girls und Panzer 2
I'm sure the character designs, interactions and personalities were big selling points back in Japan but they are a pretty big turn off for me. Still waiting till things "get good" which I've heard is soon.
From the new world is really really good.
one of the most well written shows in a while. Very solid story and so many great little details. One of my recent favorites and a great recommendation any time.
The arc never really hits its stride ever...
it's slow to start, then some interesting things happen and then it slows to crawl again... and then some interesting things happen... and then you listen to the narrator for like 20 hours (which would be a lot faster in manga form)... and then some interesting things happen with the narrator blabbing on and on and on and on and on... then it kind of ends. I haven't read the manga but I have heard the arc was a fairly faithful adaption just with a few events moved around.
It's not a bad arc, but it's by far my least favorite in the series, though it likely doesn't help that I was able to binge watch most of the series before that arc and had to watch that arc weekly. It was better when I stopped watching for a few months and came back and watched the arc, but even then it still wasn't that well paced.

Now do it again by watching the movies.
This episode really stuck with me long after all the other ones and I'm not sure I can say why. The soft colors and gentle tone of the Betelgeusian planet is a stark contrast to the rest of Dandy.
Looks visually interesting at the very least. I'll give it a look.

For anyone who cares, the Again!! jdrama adaptation ended after the first baseball game with a pretty conclusive ending.
I still admire the fact that Jdrama writers don't give one single fuck about the source material in terms of trying not to upset the balance. Their shows need to end in 10 episodes and they'll find a way to end it, even if it means "ruining" the manga ending in some way. That's the way anime writers should operate!

That feeling when you decide to go back to a show in your back log to finish, rewatch the episode you last watch and don't remember a damn thing about the episode after the first 2-3 minutes :X
don't know if this was posted but Amazon has A-Channel Bluray up for preorder for $22.48
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NW6KVIK/?tag=neogaf0e-20
This will be my first double dip (own on DVD and will buy on Bluray).

bear our tastes this season almost synced up completely. If you liked Barakamon and Nozaki-kun as well we might have to get married.

It's good news for the anime at least. I undecided on whether I would read the manga instead of the anime, but I guess I don't strictly need to now.
Non Non Biyori for $35.98 also

I just want a nyan-pasu button on my desk.
the details are so important. It will definitely keep you on your toes!
I think most people are impatiently waiting.
this year has been just amazing for releases.
That I did!
Yeah. Especially given its based on a manga and not a novel. So you don't lose all the material you normally lose going from prose to a visual medium.
Get an avatar, you bum.

This was an improvement in some ways but...
Jesus Christ. This is going to be worse than I had anticipated. There's a term for this, it's called enlightened sexism.

Out of context this might be acceptable but the build up to it was handled in a really poor manner.

I remember that fight in the VN.
They tried so hard to tell me about how good it was but the same still image shaking along the screen with sound effects and blue/red colors flashing don't really do it for me.

Man feels like the calm before the storm, I'm actually caught up on everything and none of the new fall shows I plan to watch start until Friday or next week. Guess I can use this week to kill off a back log show or two or put extra time into Persona 3 FES
hes pretty neat , but Justy Ueki Tylor is REALLY special. Its hard to compare anything to him. His level of sloth and woman wooing skills are incomparable.
Very strong lineup. This will be a solid season even if just those are good.
