That's fair. It just breaks my suspension of disbelief anyway.
Even her name is Ai!
The whole idea was that they were two extremes that had to come together. It's been so long that I don't being annoyed by their relationship, but I do like what happens to Tanabe at the end in terms of the whole space suit oxygen thing. Yeah, it ends up being a cop out, but there was no way this was going to have a grimdark ending... especially with the moon girl.
And speaking of which, I thought moon girl ending the conflict was a nice way to finish off that arc. Maybe I was less cynical at the time, and sure it was so obvious that it hurt, but the idea of someone who simply doesn't understand the concept of "nations" is so very Star Trek that it took me back to a time when SyFy was very simple in its morality.
Man, I need to get a Nyanko plushie at some point...
School Days 12: END
![]()
Oh man, no way it could have ended better. As horrible as it was going, the only choice was for them to take it all the way. After all that, I feel a little more mentally disturbed. That series is messed up in ways I did not expect. For as awful as the beginning was, that's what made the end pay off more.
New PV for Maoyuu Maou Yuusha -- now with voices!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8ar0_IZ2vA
Apparently they reuploaded the first PV too, now partially voiced as well.
Personally, those two are as far as I went down that particular hole. I have Garzey's Wing sitting around here somewhere, but I feel like physically owning it is good enough.
That said, Earth Maiden Arjuna rounded out the hazing trio when I came to animeGAF. I'm surprised it hasn't been brought up yet.
If anything, watching School Days and Blood-C proves to myself that I can handle anything you guys through at me. Do your worst, GAF. HaHa.

I really like this series. Misaki is the only person I cannot stand.
School Days 6-7
Makoto is an amazing hypocrite. Claims to act on the behalf of others, yet when he's required to step up and actually help somebody he relents.
Show is also making clear moves that set up Kotonoha's rapidly deteriorating state of mind. Seems I had it right. Kotonoha's going to be the one doing the killing.
School Days 9
This is getting really hard to watch. They just keep twisting the knife.
School Days 10
Wow. Didn't really expect this, although I suppose otherwise this might not end badly. It's pretty much greek tragedy at this point.
School Days 11
One part of me wants to say things have been stretched into charicature here, but at the same time I can look back and see that this course of events was set up properly. It's just that early on it allowed for a more sympathetic interpretation.
Still.
School Days 12
Well, that didn't happen exactly as I recall from what I was spoiled on.
Just because you have a knife doesn't mean you're a doctor, particularly when determining a 1-2 month old pregnancy.
Yup. Hyouka is selling well too.

Girls und Panzer - Episode 5
This episode totally rocked. Excellent pace all round. There's character development, cute girls doing cute things, espionage, foreshadowing, more character introductions, and another kickass tank battle. Hats off to the staff for making a show so unique and entertaining. The tactics and details of the various aspects of the show are really quite impressive, considering how ridiculous the entire concept is. Every match so far has been really fun to watch. The wait for episode 6 is going to be really, really painful. >_<

On his official site, Shinichiro Ikebe has been listed as the composer for Isao Takahata's upcoming film The Tale of Princess Kaguya. Ikebe composed the scores for Future Boy Conan and several Kurosawa films including Kagemusha.
Just wan to say congrats to yami4ct and Hitokage for their completion of School Days. It was hard and arduous. I know.

Upcoming credits and episode titles for Magi:
Looks like ep6 = ch25-32, ep7-10 = ch33-45+. They're definitely slowing down once they start Balbadd at ep7, but who knows if it'll be good. Yoshino is only writing 2 episodes of the next 5 though, so I guess that's good news.... maybe? Considering the pace though, I wonder what they're going to stretch later on if they plan on ending with Balbadd. It looks more like they'll finish Balbadd by ep18 or 20 at this rate...
I tried to not just reiterate the events in my reviews (the people interested have already seen the show so they don't need me to tell them what happened) but rather my feelings and predictions. In my review of episode 9 I wrote this about that scene (please note the image link):
At that point I was more focused on my thoughts of the main three then on the side characters. Still funny how the last part of my prediction came true. Guess I'm too aware for my own good.
daaaaaaaaaaaaamn son
Dog Days > School Days
IIRC didn't some news say they were expanding more on Sinbad and his seven generals? They could be padding it with new content.
You think it'll be an original filler ending arc after Balbadd?
Somewhere in the middle I guess. They did show Sinbad and his pals in the OP. Oh while time will tell.
Maybe they're building up toand after all the stuff that happens in that battle at around ep12-13, they'll have original arc before the end of Balbadd? I dunno if it'll work though. I keep worrying about Yoshino.Aladdin vs Judal as the mid-series climax,![]()
Nooooo, they gonna go with Ao no Exorcist route!!!
The series end with original anime arc ala the first FMA, and with no way to come back
Don't do this A-1!!! ;_;
That's not a stealth edit.Thank fucking god someone was smart enough to screenshot it.
So apparently they did do a stealth edit in the DVD version of School Days.
What most of you probably saw, if even at all: http://i.imgur.com/224V8.png
What we saw when it first aired: http://i.imgur.com/DkVfE.png
Now line up and receive your punishment.
That's not a stealth edit.
Glowing white was a goofy color to choose for the TV edit, considering, but blood is what it was supposed to be...it means the same thing, in any case.
Incidentally, I believe Crunchyroll is showing the TV edit.

Body switch episode. Miyuki and Candy spend the day in each others bodies after trying on pair of strange rings. Alright episode I guess.
I've noticed lately that the opening has been promoting the Precure All Stars movie, and some of the girls look pretty cool.

Just to clarify this for people who haven't played the game,In the game (so game spoilers):He pulls her into the room and starts raping her, when Makoto and Hikari stumble upon the outside of the room. Instead of going in to help her, they start fingering/jacking each other, and then they fuck outside the room to Kotonoha getting raped.
The scene ends with them leaving as she's getting raped while leaving a puddle of semen and lady juices outside the door where they got off to her rape.

Those are the ones who get no dialogue at all in Precure AllStars NewStage...
Seriously?
Lame. >:I
It's been a while since I've seen it, but I'm pretty sure that no characters prior to Fresh, whilst appearing in the movie, got any dialogue what-so-ever - not even stock yells or grunts or stock-footage attack names - in AllStars NewStage.
They talk plenty in the other AllStars movies, though.
Now that I'm thinking about it, did you subject yourself to the Suite Precure movie? It's... remarkably terrible.

Not yet, Mad Pierrot gave me the heads up to stay away from it so I'll heed his words.
Are we seriously going to get another 8 episodes of stuff just like this? I find it hard to believe, but that would be amazing. Lol.
