Turn A seems to be the most promising of the bunch, I'll go with that one.
Thanks.

There's some of the catharsis I was waiting for, but I still need the soothing release of GFB to calm my nerves. Because Wixoss found hope, YuYuYu's always had some undercurrent of friendship, but this? There's been this peaceful air of tranquility with an undercurrent of unsettlingness the whole time, but I'm still not sure it can materialize just yet. When the last week of the season comes, my eyes are focused on here.... because nearly every other show will be done.

Hm... Ok.
It's a culture festival episode with sleepovers, a haunted house, idols and the Snow White performance. No maid cafe though.

Guys, I need some help trying to understand Gundam Reconguista no G. I'm at episode 5, but I still have no idea who are the bad guys or what is going on. What I do know:
The protagonist
reminds me of a game
IIRC.
And holy shit, just watched episode 6. Wow, that G-self must be
- There are two countries/states at war, one from the red haired girl and another that didn't appear yet, at least not that I've seen.
- There is a faction called Capital Guard and Capital Army, but are they independent? From what I've seen so far the Capital Army is being a bunch of assholes, and they tried to stop the other faction's armies development? And they also are the ones who manage who will get energy and the quantity of that?
The protagonist
shifting sides
Front Mission
And holy shit, just watched episode 6. Wow, that G-self must be
possessed by a demon.
The Capital Guard was the self defence force, the Capital Army was being raised behind the scenes in order for the country to be able to have an offensive force.
The show isn't really all that confusing imo, though I suppose it helps being familiar with the way Tomino tells stories

Oh, ok, thanks for the info. This is my first Gundam so I'm not used to it yet.

Chloe isn't leaving at all. It's just her misunderstanding of Japanese culture confusing her family back in France. Did I mention this episode had Sakura Tange speaking a few lines of (probably phonetically read, I don't know her language skills) French? The same community spirit that's been present in previous episodes was at full throttle here, and next week concludes with a New Years' episode. Take in those soothing vibes.

That episode title certainly doesn't lie...
Somebody is engaged? Heh. And there's scarf envy and shopping as well.

You have an region-free player? Lucky!
Interesting to see what likely is Khara's Animator Expo getting licensed so early. Makes me wonder if a North American announcement is on its way.

Now finally at some actual suffering. Got to say the fanservice is kind of out of place. Highlighting that the girl who's legs don't work has large bouncy breasts in the transformation sequences is kind of offputting. It doesn't really fit well in a show that supposed to be about pure magical girls. That aside, it's a fairly cute show with some cool designs. I wonder how they will take the reveal from this episode

Merry Christmas.
There's all kinds of problems because of Haruka's phone calls and Yuu plays a Kinect game.

Darn it, I got here too late to recommend you G Gundam, the best of the bunch! At least I hear that Turn A is good. I think. Still need to watch that one.

Ahahahahahahahahahaha
IT WAS ALL A DREAM.
Or was it? Shione remembers Noel along with Nonoka. Wonder how that's gonna work out. Ah well, one more episode for this show to find out!

Is Yowamushi on any other legal streaming sites? I can't find it on CR. I don't want to use an illegal one.
All over me.
Ah, you're European? You're lucky; your anime is cheaper and you have Perfect Blue on BD.
I wouldn't buy the BD of Gankutsuou if I were you though; the upscaling job they did on it was terrible. Ruins a lot of the neat textures that the characters have.

The only people who don't understand it are those whose souls have been weighted down by earth's gravity and have closed their hearts to Tomino's message. These tend to be the same sorts of people who believe that the world is square.
It's sad, really.

Ah, you won't be able to play UK discs without getting a region free BD player, then. Of the ones you listed, the only one that hasn't gotten a BD release in North America is Gankutsuou. Baccano's BD is now out of print though, so you'll have to look a bit harder if you want to find it.

It's the good kind of dumb. The kind of dumb where someone eats food so good their clothes explode off (then magically come back) and they dream of bathing with gorillas, and people that are so good at cooking they have Stands.
It's smut. But it's the kind of smut I can appreciate.
There's also some older terminology from the UC shows (the first one and it's sequels, Reconguista is set in the future from that timeline)
If you have any questions about that, then we can answer. For instance UC = Universal Century, and Minovsky Particles which block electromagnetic communication. There's also some Universal Century mobile suits floating around since the ban on technological advancement makes them use old relics.
Also there is newer terminology like Kuntala.

I DID BOTH OF THOSE THINGS! It'll be fiiiiine
Magical Witch Punie Chan 1-8 END
More amazing than I thought. Punie is a magical asshole, and having Tetsuka in her ring of friends is rather odd. With some fun reaction faces, and rather physical antics going about, this is better than I expected it to be. And different from what I expected as well.
I now know where that Potato scene came from as well. That makes me happy.
To add, if you're searching for it via a device that uses CR, there's always a chance mature content filter needs disabled to see the full library. Some of the stuff flagged doesn't make sense so just throwing it out there.
