If you name your kid Serial Killer chances are he won't grow up to be a lawyer, y'know?

And by all means this show shouldn't have turned out this awesome and yet, here we are.

Actually his name is J.G Benjamin, serial killer is what he is wanted/caught for.

Show has one of its best episodes the same week that Ano Hana has one of its worst. Team Iroha must be pleased.

Has been a bad week for Team Hana. I've noticed the members are keeping a low profile.

They've lost their voice and gone in to hiding!

Wow, you can actually hear the sound of the writers breaking away from the established formula to flesh out the world and characters. Unsurprisingly this makes for one the more interesting episodes in a long time.

Show suddenly took a turn into horror because this is truly the stuff of otaku nightmares.

Meanwhile Team Denpa laughs while sipping tea and launching bottle rockets on the sidelines.

This episode was moe as hell, in the best possible way. The conclusion looks like it should be pretty entertaining.

Damn, this show keeps on ramping up. Somehow this episode even had the best action scene in the whole series and it wasn't even between robots. Who'd have thunk it.

Pizzaaaaaaa!

This show is why everytime someone says Nichijou is the funniest show of the season I feel like guffawing.

Azazel is easily one of the best shows of the season; it has visual inventiveness and fun animation yet, unlike Nichijou, it never gets dull and it has charisma and attitude yet, unlike Enma-kun, it never gets redundant.

Nichijou 10 - I'm enjoying these remixes of the ED. I don't really like the original - same old sugar pop stuff, but the acapella and this latest 'elevator/lounge' version is really nice. Hope there's a CD of all the mixes coming out.

As for the actual content of the show - the NASA part really confused me, which I guess was the idea? The Somen part was the weakest imo, girl said "eeeeeh?!" too many times, made it really annoying.

Both of those versions (acapella and bossanova) are on the single, which came out last week or the week before last.

This crying animation>all of the crying animation in Ano Hana.

Why is Hamdo in the next episode?

Azazel-san episode 6 had the best crying animation of the season:

That was alright, not nearly the lavish piece of storytelling you're all making it out to be, but certainly better than some of the early stuff.
But I swear, the longer they insist on stretching out the romantic misunderstanding idiocy...

Hell yeah! Plot in full swing, great cast, fun to watch overall -- very hard to knock this out of the top spot on my current roster now. It's even one of the two things I bought something for at the artist's alley at Fanime last weekend.

----------------------

If I'm going to try to play catch-up on one of the following shows, which should take priority? [C] or Steins;Gate? Bear in mind that I know the latter is twice as long and will run into next season, and I'm not sure how much I'll be watching from there.

Wha? Who? Minko?

Because if you're thinking of Ko-Ohana, Ko already confessed in the first episode. While its been following standard anime tropes since, you can't accuse the show of that particular one.

... What romantic misunderstanding? Sure, there are people who haven't confessed, but they're either not sure of their own feelings, such as Tohru for Ohana, or Ohana for Ko, or are too shy to do so, such as Minko for Tohru. And, aside from the brief misunderstanding in Episode 5, I haven't seen anyone get the wrong idea about someone else's feelings.

That's a tough call. I have to say I'm enjoying both equally but yeah, I'd probably go with the shorter show first.

Well, maybe I'm just looking ahead a bit too much. I'll give it some more time before making another conclusion. So I'll stop using this and just watch the show.
I think I was reading too much KNIM so now any hints at romance cause an involuntary knee-jerk reaction.

HeartCatch PreCure 20-26: Think we can all agree. The real highlight in this streak was the unveiling and awesomeness that is Sunshine. Not to mention the fights finally take a more serious tone in terms of odds and stakes. Great to see the generals really fighting now. The music really sets the mood too. Again... This is a magical girl show?!

The fangirls are all cheering for Tohru apparently. The character thread about Toh-pimp at AnimeSuki's HanaIro forum is pretty creepy, I didn't think female anime fans could come while thinking about an anime character. I thought that sort of thing was limited to male otakus only.

Too bad for Min-tsun and Ko-zone (nice shortening of Ko-friendzone there, much easier to type out!). :3

Seven year age difference? Realistic enough, I guess.
Well, that or everyone just loves Junji Majima's voice.
