Ok then. Maybe I shouldn't have watched this before heading off to work this morning.

Great stuff.

I was curious about how they were going to tackle Chihaya's seemingly traumatic backstory, and I wasn't disappointed. I loved the use of 961 Pro as a catalyst for exploring her past with the little bro. It felt a lot more natural than her suddenly spilling her heart to the rest of the girls
Great stuff.
Well, of course I know that people don't bleed like that in real life unless they get their jugular cut. So, I guess I just didn't appreciate how much they'd exaggerate something like that.

Natsume will look up and shout "Pair us!" and the Hidamari gods will look down and whisper,
"No."
and then I'll "lol"!

Infinite Ryvius 11
A breather episode whose main purpose is to make the ending revelation
hit harder.
Other than that, it provides additional character development for Kouji as he takes the initiative to take on greater leadership responsibilities and hints at how his growing relationship with Faina will cause friction with both those responsibilities and those who grew up with him.
The amount of different eyecatch music bits this show has is amusing.

Embarrassing to admit, but I actually have gotten a nosebleed under such circumstances. Though I get nosebleeds pretty frequently normally too.

To the people who watch Toriko can you guys tell me what episode they first went to the country called Life?

After seya,shun,shiryu....it's time for another member of the old cast to join for a moment ...
i know they provided me with a legitimate reason for such actions and i get that they were nerfed a lot ..but man ..they must really believe in the new generation to manage to stay still in such circumstances ..
The seris continues his nice pace , with a mars more onmious than ever and a eden still torn between his duty and the bond he formed while being young ...
Big up for yuna that managed to be and to do what was needed in such circusmtances too ..i'm proud of you .. she is clearly the only female warrior worthy of being without a mask ..she is ..an actual character !! i hope sonia will be able to drop her mask too...

Maybe out of love for eden ? but she will probably try to kill aria at this rate ..

Chihaya and Miki are clearly the best idols
(not counting secret best Kotori)
People complained about 90's designs but I never had an issue with them.
I guess I was just used to the look.
The only time I saw someone bleed so profusely was hockey player Clint Malarchuk (do not under any circumstances look for this video)
Whoa there.
Now you're treading on sacred ground.

Haha. Yeah, I noticed this (as have others here).
What a mysterious world they live in.
Puella Magi Madoka Magica: Episode 5
Pretty standard episode. First half is talk, second half is action. There was a recurring use of shadows in this one. If it wasn't already spoiled for me by that gif of them head nuzzling from the movie trailer a few days ago, I say it seems like Homura
.
With the addition of the above image, they Shaft it up pretty hard here too.
Then out of nowhere, CLIFFHANGER!?
Noticed what appears to be a large face in the ending. This show continues to have the complete opposite tone from what I would expect from a magical girl show. The only word I can think to describe how it all feels is "ominous"
Conspiracy Theory Time (Please note that below are the ramblings of a crazy man, and will probably all be proven wrong in an episode or two, so best ignored.)

seems to be coming around and not being so cold to Madoka

So Madoka still isn't a Magical Girl. Here's what I think. She never will be one. I mean the series practically is half over and she don't even have a reason to make a wish. The crazy part of my brain that thinks every show is out to get me since watching School Days and Myself; Yourself back to back, so I'm betting she's either dreaming it all like in episode 1, or she's in a coma or something simliar. OR maybe she's just like our dear Rikka this season and is delusional.
Watching someone with a pure view coming into this is so goooooooood.
I'm tracking you now lol

At least it's not Saber Marionette. :X
Man, this takes me back to the times we had to wait like two months for the final two episodes.
Those were frightening times here on GAF.
It's impossible to accurately judge Kyouko after only a single episode with her.
The best of times, you mean.
Eyecatch music is a lost art.

She hasn't done much other than try to
murder
I already like her.
She's pointed out one of the things that makes the series so omnious, that
the girls aren't fighting for justice, or to save mankind, but for sheer greed over the Grief Seeds. So she's trying to stop the other's so she can get more, essentially living the whole "fuck bitches, get money"

Horrible..i don't know why i don't like haruto
so when i knew it was an episode focused on him i wasn't overjoyed ..
BUT NOW .. i know why i don't like this character
he brings somthing totally unnecessary to the sain seya universe ..and furthermore the way he fights is silly ..this might work in naruto for example but that's because the entire battle system in that anime is built around that way of fighting ..but in sain seya it's crap ..
Another reason was painfully explained in this episode as well , is he a ninja ? or a saint ?
the answer was in the episode ..he is
i'm stuck with a fulll hybrid character that doesn't have something even remotely intresting in battle ..
DAMMIT

Just finished the last episode, not a lot to say but Ryner and Farris were definitely my favorite part of this series. How did it do overall? No way in hell I'm satisfied with that cliffhanger ending, any chance of another season?

Then the teachers get drunk and such. Tsuchida confesses to Yamamoto, but since she's about as clueless as a rock, didn't think it was about her. One day Tsuchida, one day.
Well this episode was a real heart felt episode. So sweet, even if Koume's brother seems to be a siscon. Bandana and Ponytail?
Lewd.

What's with the flags?
legitimately terrifying

I miss the days when anime was manly. Not the harem junk we have now.

Yeah, this is doing nothing for me guys. I'm gonna go with the "you just don't get it" card and try to clear something else in my backlog.
Somebody tell me when the ED song gets released please. Dropped.

Maybe I have no standards for manga, but I think she's fine. It's like wideface, but not as good or something. lol
There's a cartoon movie about a Republican dealing with gay people? Wow!
I would make another direct comparison to another inane (insane?) fanbase, but I figured that would be too much of a value judgement. But what the hell: Redline fans are like Lost fans and I'll just leave it at that. lol
So what you're saying is I should look for this video?
It really sounds like you shouldn't.
curiosity killed the... whatever that is
Well now this is just offensive.
Uguu.
So much hate
Well, Clint got slashed in neck with another players ice skate and there was a huge pool of blood on the ice.
The coach saved him by basically grabbing him by the throat to hold the wound closed.
Its nasty.
