Toradora 24 - Mmm something about the situation feels strangely silly to me, whatever only one more episode left!
Thanks for that. Edit - However after some thinking about it for a little bit, i realized i like the first avatar better.>_>expy said:Here's one with fixed levels if you find yours a bit too washed out.
Toradora 25 - Whew I'm done, overall i was pretty pleased with the ending, it's no-where near Maison ikkoku quality, but it's satisfying and conclusive enough.
Overall i enjoyed this series much more then i think i should have, it's a very standard romcom there's nothing really special about it at all in many ways, yet i found myself strangely addicted to it, and couldn't stop watching it until i was finished. Taiga also turned out to be fairly tolerable for a tsundere, which is a surprise. (considering she seemed fairly insufferable during the first episode).
I didn't exactly mind the melodrama tonal shift later on in the series, although it definitely got kind of insufferable at parts, and some of the conflict just felt really unnatural at times. I kinda liked the whole
dynamic, but it got to damn dramatic for it's own good.
One good thing about the series in regards to the romance i noticed, is there was rarely or any status quo or spinning the wheel moments, which was fairly refreshing, I'm actually kind of surprised there was a shipping community for some of the pairings in the show, as i never really felt there were any moments where the main character would have ended up with one of the other girls, in fact who he would have ended up with seemed obvious even from the beginning.:lol
Now that I'm done with the series i need to go back and watch the rest of revolutionary girl utena!

Hanasaku Iroha ep 2
Not as good as the first episode, stuff are going to smoothly for main character for my likeing.
So far theres an obvious love triangle, go die girl likes kitchen boy, kitchen boy might end up liking iroha, shy girls a lesbian who likes iroha, guest guy staying so he can watch the girls and child hood friend is too busy beating his dick in sorrow.
from what i ve seen this season
steins gate >hanasaku iroha = dormon enma-kun> Nichijou>>>>>xmen
all have been good apart from x men just being just ok

Hanasaku Iroha 02
Well that definitely settles whether or not Ohana has the worst relatives ever. I hope her mother gets run over by a truck. Repeatedly. Why the fuck would you do something like that to your kid?! Aarrrrggghhhh!
Still, a great episode though. Ohana is really cute and Minko will turn dere dere for her soon enough. I hope that pervy author dude gets arrested or something, though.
This show is so far above everything this season as to be absurd.

Seto no Hanayome is awesome, but it's not exactly what I'd want for Persona 4.InfiniteNine said:

I think you missed your mark, and I thought it was fine in Sakura Taisen.jman2050 said:
That's... what I'm thinking. Bride and Sunred are both good stuff, but for P4? Not to mention the taint of Angel Beats still clinging to him (although you can always blame Jun Maeda for that).hosannainexcelsis said:
I'm more worried that he's somehow gotten hold of Kamisama Dolls, though.

Best birthday present ever.
Man rewatching CCS after getting used to Madoka for the past 3-4 months is quite jarring. The two are complete polar opposites in tone. Not that that's surprising at all, but it's still noticable. Although I recall CCS getting a bit more SRS BSNS at the midway point.
Also I will never get used to CLAMP's character designs. Ever.
These are anime fans we're talking about! It was obvious about 10-15 minutes into the first episode where this story was going to go but if someone didn't like that pairing for whatever reason, that person would have no qualms ignoring the obvious in order to entertain their own fantasy ending. So basically like fans of any other anime series ever.

Well, here's hoping that the show turns out well. It'd be nice to see a quality Persona anime.
