No but seriously watching an entire episode of "humor" nearly put me to sleep thank God for Hearthstone

Log Horizon 2 10

Took the joke I was gonna use
I dunno. I see what they were going for this episode but it didn't work for me. Thought the big speech could've been halved and had the same effect but it took up most of the episode.

The flu sucks m'kay. I wonder if the bit with Kouki's mom is the drama bomb the show will end on. Show is great overall though.

Baccano 1

I saw bit and pieces of this before but the show is already hard enough to follow as it is that I'll appreciate a good, "in order" run through

From the New World 8

Though it's a bit forced (what with the "sex monkey" angle from earlier in the show), I'm actually impressed at how all these homosexual relationships are framed and shot with sincerity as opposed to vehicles to titillate heterosexual males/females. That's rare in anime I feel. Overall the plot continues to thicken and there seems there is still fallout from the last arc to resolve.

Girls und Panzer 9

So basically his is another one of those times when the bad guys let the good guys win. The show has completely failed to make me care about any of these characters or their current plight. To say nothing of some of the derpy happenings :/ This is not a good anime (for a variety of reasons).

Its not, because its just small snippet in infobook or something, like I'm said the series never touching the historical accuracy in the plot, these thing doesn't actually matter.

And you can argue all the inaccuracies is one of gimmick that made the series popular.

Well you all have to understand that since you can summon heroes from alternate dimensions / timelines ( because ...well because ) , your hopes of accuracy are pointless. Complainning aboutthat when they have the perfect loophole to go around it doesn't make sense to me.

What a shitty raid guild. Giving up because y'all died once? Get back to me after you die 10+ times on the same boss.

Again if you're even getting disheartened the first time you wipe, you shouldn't be doing hard raids.

Missing the point that dying is not the same thing as a "loss" in just gameplay terms but a different matter in elder tale after the apocalypse , missing the point that there is no point is what they feel ( from experience from raids ) that the challenge is hopeless.
Missing the point that challenging raid & events together is part of their daily lives and giving up on that is almost the same as disbanding ..

Wait , is that sairaog ? but that fight is not supposed to happen untill vol 9

Rossweisse is there is valkyrie mode ? does that mean the loki arc is IN ? Are we going to skip kyoto arc ? WTF ..how many episodes are planned ?? 12 is certainly NOT enough .
3rd season was supposed to be vol 5,6,7 ..what what we thought. does that mean we're skipping the rating games ? but we can't it's a big plot point .. I'm CONFUSED
heck 2nd season had some changes but that was small things , the conclusion was mostly the same.

Ok let's wait for more info , because this Pv only made me confused.

Yeah that was something that immediately stuck out to me as well. It's such a refreshingly casual representation of homosexuality.

I only heard like, 2 seconds of dub Chidori and Tessa singing and now I want to hear more.

And I can't as apparently many of the best soundtrack pieces of this show are almost nowhere to be found. What a tease. :(

Between that, Mordred, and Joan of Arc, does that make four in-universe Sabers with the same face?
Click to expand...

Fate/Extra is a separate canon from the main Fate universe, isn't it? So is Apocrypha, I believe. So that would just leave Saber and Joan, the latter of which doesn't really appear in the main universe but is nonetheless a part of it.

If you want all the Sabers with the same face but not the same universe, there's regular Saber/Saber Alter, Red Saber, Saber of Red, Saber Lily, Sakura Saber, and... Saber Lion. I guess Joan sort of counts, too. Of course, this isn't counting Fate/Prototype Saber, or the just plain silly Konata cosplaying as Saber (as seen in various Lucky Star video games and figures). Too many Sabers!

I'll play along since I'm bored. So obviously the raid guild members are aware that they'll lose their memories if they wipe. Now there are two logical outcomes in a case like that; the first is that you stop doing a high risk event such as raiding, the other option is to knowingly continue raiding despite the risks.

This is of course assuming that the raids in the game aren't designed around noobs and idiots, there will be a decent chance you'll wipe. That's just how raids are. The guild members should have embarked on this raid with the knowledge that at the bare minimum, they were going to wipe at least a few times.

Now with the knowledge that they lose memories, they should be overly cautious. Strategies like sacrificing the tanks and possibly the DPS if they end up in shit creek, should be absolutely basic. At least in stuff like SAO, every single person there only has one life and no revives so sacrifice strategies in that game didn't make sense. Here however, if a couple of people make it out and the whole party is fine, they should have backup plans oriented around that.

Also if you give up or think a challenge is hopeless after one attempt, you shouldn't be doing raiding. Flat out. A large part of raiding is experimenting.

At first I thought what we needed was an all-Saber fighting game, but I was wrong. This is what we actually need; an all-Saber idol group. Think of how much money Type-Moon would make from this!

I was actually pretty happy when they redid the Saber Alter Nendoroid, since the original was an early Nendoroid and had become quite hard to find. The downside was that it didn't come with any silly faces, so now she's the only serious looking Fate Nendoroid I have.

They already saying that statement when arc begin, most boss that they beat need trial and error and some even take a week, its already like a month they starting the raid.

I think the super cringe worthy speech make thing stretched from the context, the disappointed sigh from member is just proper response like when you almost beat up the boss and unfair mechanic take you out from the game. Come on bro 3 raid boss at same time, how you not ragequit?

I spent $100 alone for Figma Shirou so when I saw Saber 2.0 will be taller than him I basically said there was no way I was buying it no matter how huge an improvement.

I had no idea this one would be so Nightmare on Elm Street-centric. Definitely made for one of the better eps as the horror element was more realized rather than just given a cursory nod..

My god.. mother character in this episode is such a piece of shit, maybe among the worst that I know.

TBH despite the ultra derived scenario, this episode directed masterfully tho and I do invested, made me confused to regard this episode good or not.
