I had no idea what 'Animelo' was, so naturally I Googled for it and read the Wikipedia entry. Wait, what? There's an annual anime songs concert now, which has been running since 2005? o.o Where can I stream this shit??
You can probably find most of the old stuff on youtube. I bought the 2010 Blu Rays however so I can't help you there.

I thinks it the combination of the latest OVA being released some time ago and AnimeGAF's penchant to watch stuff a poster decided to watch.
Huh... I can't remember, was that me or Firehawk that started this one? I think it might have been firehawk, but I might have read something about the OVA somewhere before then...

Koe de Oshigoto 2

I'm really not sure how to describe this show.
The best I've come up with is it's like those awkward scenes from Amagami magnified a hundred-fold and the whole show is centered around them.

Koe de Oshigoto! 1-2

It's a show about voice acting eroge. There's no way I wouldn't love it.

It's pretty funny though, between the "I'd suck my own dick if I could!" guy and the cheesy "Hentai voice work takes such courage!" dork and general routine atmosphere of it all. Add in the fact that the main girl's special ability is working herself into a sex-fueled trance and cumming in front of the whole studio, and oh my god. Show of the season.
It gets crazier later in the manga, to the point where she starts entering ero-mode just by reading the H-scene lines and starts stripping in the recording studio.
I don't know if the OVA will make it that far, though.

95? No lecturer/teacher I've known of a certain age gives more than 80. Not that I've ever got higher than say, 76.

Student teachers are somewhat generous, old wizened lectures give everyone 55-70 unless you've really pulled something great off.
Haha, yeah.
Although, clearly this dude was like an honours student taking a crappy low level course just for the requirement. Still, since our school doesn't give a shit about curves (I'm not sure anyone here knows how to calculate one), I can give A+s like that. That said, I mostly give people grades in the 70 range. Most people are just boringly average.

I don't know if I the first to post about the first episode a while ago. It's a possibility. :p

Oh, it'll make it. If not by the next episode, then definitely the 4th. Like I said before, that nerdy kid's got himself a real animal in the sack suck'n on his finger right there. If it wouldn't make me want to take a long cold shower due to the squick, I'd say that Kanna is the TRUE ideal waifu...

Her boyfriend rushes to stop her before it goes any further than her skirt. Tons of series are worse.
Funny part is, the boyfriend's mom is the producer for the game they're recording and was in the studio to supervise it, so she saw the whole thing. Not the best first impression to make on your crush's parents.

If the first two episodes are any indication, in the world of Koe de Oshigoto nobody seems to mind what goes on in that recording booth.

She admonishes her son for NOT making any moves on Kanna. I think the whole sex-fiend mode made is worse for him on that front. Such panderbaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiiiiit~!

Wait, so she ends up dating the nerdy kid? Spoilers, people!

Some of us are invested in this shit. Don't go around ruining important plot points!

At least this show isn't even trying to pretend things will end up any other way.
You don't know that, man. With such rich characters and narrative, why, there is a myriad of possibilties that could unfold.

It never ceases to amaze me how doomed dislikes Madoka yet praises whatever incredibly crappy otakubait show he watches for containing surprising "depth" and "subtle commentary."

What causes a show to cross the line into otaku/panderbait territory? Or is this purely a personal, subjective thing?
tiff said:
Madoka could've used more yuri fanservice, that's for sure.
I am pretty sure the 85 million pieces of fanart fill that criteria.

Only the manga, and ONLY that slightly subversive element. Otherwise it's awful. :lol

And I don't dislike Madoka!
 
For people talking about Tatami Galaxy on the previous page: It's been licensed in the UK for release this year. Dunno when that'll actually be though, or if we're getting BDs...

Madoka is a crappy otakubait show too though.

I blame you all!
So do I!
firehawk12 said:
Hey, I like Madoka. Certainly I was on the bandwagon from episode 1, but it's alpha nerd panderbait of the first degree. Like Lost. :lol
Well, it's certainly no mono no Aria, that's for sure. Talk about panderbait!
Branduil said:
I guess I can't say anything because I've never been in band, or had sisters. Except I have had sisters.
Wait, had sisters as in you don't anymore or as in you've had sisters?

I'm sorry, my mind's in the gutter right now. Blame firehawk12.

Ano Hana 3

Anaru's hair is still stupid. Oh, she fixed it.

This show needs clearer ghost rules.

Tsuruko is still the best girl.
Strange that his female friends all grew up to fit within obvious anime archetypes; a loli, a tsundere and a kuudere.

Well okay, one of them didn't.

Mono no Aria certainly doesn't actively pander to a nerd audience. Maybe to Venice fetishists, I suppose. :lol

The Shimura stuff doesn't really pander, which is probably why only 5 people bought those discs.

There's certainly good stuff that isn't nerd shit or intellectual masturbation porn. It's rare, but it's out there.

Sorcerer Hunters - fantastic!
