Yeaaaaaaaaaaa.
Or unless it's Toqger. I can't believe I have two points of reference to that in this episode.
What about Green Ranger -> White Ranger, though?
Power Rangers doesn't count. Green Ranger and White Ranger aren't even originally from the same Super Sentai!
Besides, Tommy was the de facto main character by the time White Ranger was a thing anyway.

I've been watching the anime D-Gray Man and it's pretty good, has been enjoyable so far.

But i guess a downtime was necessary after last week ...

What are the chances of Dark Grasper being a

I'd say it's pretty likely.

Well it's coming back so there's hope. She even posted some pictures of new material and it also seems like she's using a tablet to do her drawings now.
So more D-Gray Man incoming.
Do you mind elaborating?

I keep wondering what a Death Grips anime would look like, but then I realize it would just be Paranoia Agent.

I saw what you did there.
Marathoning the D.Gray-man anime was a terrible experience. The first fifty episodes are mostly a slog of dull, self-contained stories, then you finally hit Japan/Noah's Ark/Black Order Invasion and it's shounen goodness all over your face, then at the cusp of a convergence in several exciting #gamechanger plot threads it's fuck you show's over.
At lest Gekidou is the shit
It was coined very early as anime of the season and appears to live up to those lofty expectations.

I watched like, episode 1 of that, then dropped it seeing as the show didn't really seem like my kind of thing.
Looks like I made the right choice. That sounds like something that would have really pissed me off.
Last 50 eps is really good like madp said, its also the point of what haly said..
That explains it. No more Twintails = plot went to shit.
yeah both arent very good outside of select tracks/eps

It would probably get all hyped up, release a few bizarre shitty episodes, then release a episode where literally nothing happens and there's just a still image, and then the animation studio dissolves and that's the end before the finale. Also, dick picks everywhere.

Like every chapter post-monthly move, I was convinced there were pages missing. It was pretty much impossible to follow.
Gargantia OVA-1
Anyway this was a really good slice of life episode and I enjoyed how mellow it was for the most part. There were definitely some dramatic elements and sequences but the whole thing felt very grounded. I also think Chambro being out of the picture allows for there to be some really tense bits.
I think it's very clear where they're going with season 2. Oh boy.
Good lord these girls are healthy. Best ass service this season.

PriPara 19
Meganee is the press. Meganee is the security guards. Meganee is the gatekeeper. If this independent city-state is a virtual world, that still raises questions about the true nature of the mysterious overwatcher. If she's doing this with powers from a magical dimension, I wonder if this is working under Maple Land laws or if using body duplicates really is covered.
Her very existence keeps drawing me deeper into the web of PriPara, on the eve of Mirei celebrating her anniversary of rescuing the Bear from the dungeon. It's a cute story, about how she learned that technical skill can only take you so far in the world of entertainment. "Like paintin' a masterpiece, it's a work of heart." Her ladybug-themed outfit was cute, too.
Lala's mom being informed her daughter might be involved in idoldom didn't really faze her. She's cool, like Kotori's mom. The premise for the next episode is a little odd - do Dorothy and Leona's parents have the funds to open a store for the purpose of competing with Lala's? Will the battle inside the idol world have an effect on the economy outside it? Why ninjas?
Finding out more of Mirei's backstory is appreciated. I like all the characters in this show, and she has the greatest contrast between her public life and her private life, as well as a really great family. Knowing more about how her journey began shows how far she's come, even if a lot of it is delivered via flashbacks.
Thinking about it, the movie might be a way to make up for losing a cour after the rebranding. Jewelpet and Pretty Rhythm need to remain in sync, apparently.

Wolf Children:
Great movie is great.
Saw this earlier today, and I don't know if I have a lot to say about it coherently right now (long convention day and all), but I really loved it. The right mix of just about everything. I would have loved to see even more of those character's lives, but what the movie did worked just fine, and the ending was really good. This is definitely the sort of movie you could show to normal people and actually get a decent reception with.

Incredible movie. Ducky foretold of the Hosodapocalypse but it turned out to be a very memorable movie and one of my favorites.

And yet they are. I don't know of any critic or writer I respect have anything good to say about that series.
It has about two good episodes and a good OP, I'll give it that much.

[Parasyte] - 5
Oh, hey, in the OP his mum is like a parasyte. I guess she's totally going to get killed and become a parasyte.
Well, as the show explicitly showed us in the OP, his mother died and became a parasyte. This might have been slightly unexpected if they didn't spell it out clearly in the OP. Then again, the whole conversation before the parents left seemed to raise some pretty heavy death flags on it's own.

And that's why I'm avoiding watching the OPs in shows whose plot progression is of high interest to me. I'm glad I did not see that image. The little I have seen, like the badass Shinichi at the end, isn't much of an issue fortunately.

Staff for the new Yoru no Yatterman series is out:
Director: Tatsuya Yoshihara (Muromi-san)
Series Composition: Kazuyuki Fudeyasu (Muromi-san)
Character Design: Keisuke Goto
Mecha Design: Akira Amemiya
Animation Production: Tatsunoko Production
It's definitely from the "younger staff at Tatsunoko" as promised, but it's more Team Muromi-san than Team Gatchaman Crowds. Hopefully we'll see a number of the Yozakura animators help out on the series too, instead of just rotting away on Psycho-Pass 2.
The series starts on Tokyo MX in Jan, and will run for 12 episodes.

Fear And Loathing in Last Vegas is awesome. How can you not sit through it. I sit through all of Kaiji S2 OP.

I think this was one of the funniest episodes, I laughed so many times. From Sento's interview dream, the random bean, the cute looking mascots being assholes and the weird applicants.

And speaking of OP's this season with intelligible screaming, if you had to pick one of the two which one would it be?
Bahamut:

Or Parasyte
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RNBn-pPqiA
And you must chose one!

Good to see Ru finally getting over her anti-battle stance because honestly such a position is simply unworkable in the situation they've found themselves in. Liking that Akira is crazier and more unstable each and every time you see her showing how easy its been for Uilith to use take advantage of her emotional state and make her think she loves her. Course I'm under the impression she doesn't actually give a shit about Akira and the girl just make the perfect henchmen for her plans, whatever they might be.
Shirobako 05
Feels bad to be Endou. Seems like he's the type of guy who realizes that he is part of a dying craft and wants doesn't really want to accept that 3D is fine as well. No doubt I expect him to come to this revelation as time passes and to finally get off his high horse and help out the rest of the staff instead of also holding up the anime. Also I forget his name, but blonde mohawkish dude is a total douche and I wish all sorts of ill on him in this show.
Yuki Yuna 05
Battle episode and a damn good one at that. I'm enjoying the fact that despite the monster of the week format, that it seems the writers actually made the monsters unique and interesting and actually seem to have a plan of attack rather then them just showing up for the girls to beat the crap out of. With the transformations they did and the outer space battle it sure had a 'Final boss' end of series quality to it despite the fact its still right in the middle. That's fine though, I look forward to more of this show.
So the big secret about Iona has been revealed. Seems she's fallen into one of those situations were you have to be careful what you wish for
You're the source of the fun right now
or you discover you've basically become the embodiment of everyone's hate, jealously and fear.
