its not even top10
just keep assuming though because it is entertaining

Another great Haiku... you should really consolidate all of these into one collection and push for publishing.

Apparently she's all depressed and shit in America because no one likes her.

Fuck yeah, Americans not willing to deal with her bullshit. I hope she kills herself. It won't happen but a man can dream.

Is this what happens in the novel?

hey the guy made an ass of himself assuming that all I like is OP and Madoka
when ive probably seen more than him and had more anime related events etc
 
Nothing wrong with Madoka's opening. But there's plenty wrong with that Astorat's Toy show, and that show about the little girl vampire from a while back. WTF Japan?

Huh, that sucks. RIP.

This is a damn shame, I liked the series.

RIP

People are speculating it was suicide since the cause of death was not released to the press. It really amazes me how many hilarious people have to deal with depression and all that. Ugh.

Dude was only 32 too :(

My theory is that living with such a bitchy younger sister unconsciously conditioned him to not form close bonds with girls.
And oh wow, a duet ED by Kana Hanazawa and Yuichi Nakamura. I can't ever imagine what they're trying to imply.

Very sad for the MM! author.

There's nothing "wrong" with any of these shows. They're fictional stories, no worse than anything you could write in a book. But it never ceases to amaze me how people get worked up over things that aren't real and do no harm.

Ah well - time for some Planetes!

Really? That was just a participation award?

Still, pretentious emo-goth bullshit > creepy siscon bullshit!
Specifically it was the Best of Kusoge award, which means shitty game. So they were the best at being shitty.

Look, I'm not really getting into this. Number of anime series doesn't really prove anything, anyway. You could watch 10 Rio Rainbow Gates and that would just prove you have shit taste.

Question, how do guys watch the moe/cute type of anime, knowing someone could just walk in any second and be all O_O.
I live alone, if someone walks in on me watching anything I have a bigger problem with why the fuck they're even here than what they happen to catch me watching.

Age isn't an excuse, lots of adults like sports... as for watching sports myself as I said I usually don't, but sometimes do watch baseball because I like it (or, much more rarely, something else).
The age part was just a joke, I actually like to play sports I just don't like to watch other people play sports.
A Black Falcon said:
Which fan is that? "The only one here who likes show X" or something? I was saying that in some cases there's no one else on this forum who likes it, but that doesn't mean that no one else does, or even that it's not popular; look at Milky Holmes last fall season for instance, no one else here (apart from me) cared about it at all but it did pretty decently in Japan.
You're that one guy watching. Personally, I'd generally use Japan as a guide on what not to watch, look how good Infinite Stratos is doing for example.
A Black Falcon said:
You know I'm right. :)
I really don't.
A Black Falcon said:
That is sometimes true, but not always... I mean, things that are good should be able to stand on their own too.
Hence why I'm not listing them! There's two goods, meta-good and good-good, most shows aren't good-good.
A Black Falcon said:
Supposedly some people dislike her English voice actor or something? I don't know, I only watched it subbed.
Now, I'm pretty sure there were several people here who don't like her for some unfathomable reason, Tanabe's the best thing about Planetes.

Oh god, I'd rather pair up with doomed1. He can at least lull me to sleep with another postmodern reference he finds in K-On or something.
He's already with Branduil, you home wrecker.

WOW, weird that nobody on GAF put Saint Seiya: The Lost Canvas Season 2, for me thats the best anime series right now, don´t know what GAF thinks though.

Oh snap, there's a second season already? I only watched up to the part where Piscis is a total badass, which is something I thought couldn't be done.

I'm sure Branduil doesn't mind sharing.

I read the manga to finish a long long time ago. They're still milking the property?

Yes dude its already on season 2, right now its up to episode 19, awesome shit!, please see it, its brutal.

zeroshiki said:

Yeah their milking the franchise but in a good way, the animation is so good and the story is so bad ass, i love the series.
 
Moshidora 1&2
This seems pretty good so far. They did a nice job setting up the tension between the team members and it has enough pitching porn to keep me interested.

I was really disappointed in Moshidora 1

The funny wasn't really there and the animation feels early 2000s. I'll keep watching but this is the first disappointment of the season for me.

It's also set like a century before the original during the previous war between Hades and the Sanctuary so none of the previous cast is involved as they aren't even born yet. Well, except for Dohko, but that's because he is the ultimate badass.

Fuck, now I've hyped myself up. I think I'll check it out.

What does this even mean?
Everyone is saying the animation is bad... but I honestly can't see it. I don't doubt that they aren't right, but I find it about as dynamic as the new season of Maria Holic.

Well if it's as good (or bad) as the animation in Maria Holic/S2 then it probably is pretty bad. :p Haven't seen Moshidora yet, will check out tomorrow.

Nah. Only thing post-modern about K-ON is that replica of Yui & Ui's house that high level Otaku is building. It's really not all that deep of a show, it just puts a smile on my face is all.

I just suspect Uchip is really shitty at anything more than surface level viewing. It's fine, it's just that his tastes won't line up that much with anyone who watches more than inane entertainment and values support.

My problems with Maria Holic is that it's the most boringly directed Shaft show that I can remember. It's all still shots and pans.

I never know what people mean when they say animation though. I use it to refer to directing, but I get the feeling other people use it to mean the frame rate or something more technical.

Yeah, Maria+Holic is very uneven and even at it's best it's rarely interesting animation wise, it comes off cheap as hell.

Not that I care, I'll still watch the hell out of it.

Surprised you're watching it though firehawk12, just because of dat voice?
