Suite Precure - 31
!!!!!!!!! I'm still loyal to the OTP of HibikixKanade though.
Trying to at least.
New finishing move! Reminds me of Phoenix's super from MvC3. #FGC
Let us consult the wise bear.
those kinds of proportions are definitely pre teen
its just her style, and it wouldnt work for a realistic setting imo
it worked for madoka because that show had all kinds of different styles
I wasnt being overly serious about that.
Its just a cute tribute to Fate Zero.
I know it wouldn't work.

Best Hairclip
I don't really know when hairclips became part of otaku-fetish collection. Perhaps I'd rather not know.
Toradora will likely be mentioned and seems to be a favorite around here.
While I agree with both of you, I think the correct compromise is to just make OVAs in the style of Ume-sensei.
ToraDora, Mysterious Girlfriend X and School Days
If you've been dying to see Mass Effect: Paragon Lost on the cinema screen and weren't able to make it to New York Comic-Con, Funimation's got your back: should you be able to make it to one of the following six cinemas on November 29, you'll get the chance to see it for this special one-night-only screening. If you're one of the first twenty people at your movie theater you'll even get a free t-shirt!
You don't have to stay for the movie to get the shirt, right?
Type moon art style irks me because they do super serious shows with characters that look like they should be in a romantic comedy anime and it feels inconsistent.
Higurashi is still the worst offender of having style synergy shortcomings
Probably, but you'll have to buy a movie ticket either way.
Psycho-Psss 04
So glad to see this show continue its upward trend after the sort of nose dive that was ep.2. I really love the episodes more mystery/noir town. We're finally getting some multi episode arcs, which this show desperately needed. Interested to see if this new group of big bads sticks around for any length of time. Loved the look of the virtual world and how the episode dealt with anonymity. Really, it was pretty fantastic overall. Felt very GitS:SAC, which is what I have wanted all along from this show.

The T-Shirt does sound appealing...
LOL Chris' pose is hilarious.
That's pretty obvious given that Macross Plus is coherent, stylish, and skillfully edited, instead of being a random, stumbling mess filled with technobabble, characters who describe their own traits, and schizophrenic pacing.
Psycho Pass 4
Those avatar designs are pretty ugly for a future world, except for a couple anyway. A pretty stock way to present social media interaction in the future, but at least it was an interesting episode with quite a bit of variety in the art.
I would say its the best episode of the show thus far, we've entered what appears to be a nice two part arc, that is supported by a fairly compelling case with the murders and such. Looking forward to next week.

One of my favorite movies right there.
Ume's art is way better than Takeuchi's lifeless template designs.
I don't think that's technically a hair clip.

What's wrong with Chris' Jesus pose? We all know that he suffered for our sins.
sure, if you wanted to go for a roger rabbit type of mixup
That much I agree with.
Her designs are unique and adorable.
Type moon designs are plain and pretty forgettable.
Actually, all of their poses are pretty hilarious when I look at it more closely.
Arjuna is the show I want the most right now.
Its always expensive and used on amazon/ebay.
Dark Precure Rises!
Not sure if posted yet but here's the trailer for Evangelion: 3.0 You Can (Not) Redo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=Pn5IRXKF09c
First person to say Hisashi Hirai earns my scorn.
Finally, the extended sales rankings for October 22-28, and as was said before, there's a lot of stuff in here:

And so, that's the grand fate of the whole scandal, I suppose. I doubt we'll ever know how it would have done if nothing had happened.
The final Summer 2012 Temporal (first volume) BD + DVD rankings:
Yoshiyuki Sadamoto, Masashi Ando, old Toshihiro Kawamoto, Nobuteru Yuki, Yoshitoshi Abe, Naoki Urasawa, Futoshi Nishiya, Ryu-timo, Masayoshi Tanaka, and Hiroyuki Okiura, to name a few too many.
I like Umakoshi and Sadamoto chara design the most.
SAO already backing up the Tsuritamaand From the New World losses, and Silver Link one step more to bankruptcy. Nothing bad there.

You should have avoided it, when its in magic stuff is good, but otherwise it left me so disappointed and kind of offended because of the stuff they did, and it should have been double the length.
Oh well the opening theme was by Faylan so that made it a must watch and the ending theme is catchy.
I'm not really familiar with a lot of names outside of the more well-known artists but I can name some recent-ish shows where I liked the character designs:
- tsuritama
- Hyouka (even the background characters could pass for main characters in an anime)
- Penguindrum
- I wanna say Bakemonogatari but if I do I'd probably have to include Nisemonogatari by extension which means I'd have to include this thing. So I'm conflicted.
- Casshern Sins
- Durarara!! had some nice designs too, imo.
- And yeah I won't lie I'm a bit partial to Madoka Magica's character designs.
There's also the usual shows like Cowboy Bebop and Evangelion among others.
If we're extending this to gaming then by far my favorite designer is Kazuma Kaneko (though mainly for his demon designs but he does some really classy character designs too).

Whoever did Fafner, Scryed, Gundam Seed designs is probably my favorite.
Can I say Akira Amano?
And then whoever does Disgaea designs.
