Thankfully, I've read a little bit of the base manga, so after 10 episodes of Chi's Sweet Home ~ Chi's New Address I think I've got a handle on some of the extremely complex plotting and characterization that the series is so famous for.

Spoiler

cute factor is off the damn scale ;_;

The kitty goes: meow.

Wait, people are taking Azuma seriously? Lolz.

Always!

 

[zeroshiki]

I'm gonna miss Dresden for the month he's gone *sniff*

(Unless duckroll actually continues on that then all bets are off)

 

[trejo]

Are you volunteering?

I was merely putting it out there as an option.

 

[Branduil]

I dunno, I'm watching Infinite Ryvius lately and I'm pretty sure the childhood friend is going to "win."

She has a slight advantage given that the chief competition is a

Spoiler

murderous psychopath

.

Infinite Ryvius is the exception that proves the rule!

 

[firehawk12]

Ichika would probably be so much cooler if he could turn into a girl.

I thought Ichika was a girl??

I already miss the days when the proper response to anything regarding Martin would have been "finish Dance before you die" "stop attending shitty conventions and write Dance" and "Fuck the Jets"

Hey, if Robert Jordan finished his books, then Martin can do it too!
Oh wait.

That's because all the underage lesbian sex and incest in his books is le art, unlike those sci-fi scrubs.

Well, Lost is a piece of shit after all. :lol

 

[Jex]

Is nobody hopeful for C anymore? ;_;

No-one likes to be hopeful about any any-more because getting burned is a painful experience.

 

[Crash Station]

I sure could go for some Challah. Too bad the worst Jewish holiday ever is coming up

 

[trejo]

"Oh Madoka," murmured Homura, as she leaned in for a kiss. Their lips connected even as their bodies entwined together like a Challah bun. In the bathtub, they rustled together in that tightly confined space, the heat of their bodies turning the water into a soup of filth and bubbles.

And cosmicblizzard thought us having one was a bad thing. Who's laughing now, huh?

 

[zeroshiki]

Hey, if Robert Jordan finished his books, then Martin can do it too!

Well, Lost is a piece of shit after all. :lol

Brandon Sanderson is already more interesting than the last 10 years of Jordan. I only feel bad that he's saddled with WoT and can't do Way of Kings or more Mistborn.

 

[Jex]

Unfinished episodes has never stopped Shaft before.

Burn.

I haven't seen either of those!

You've been present in these threads long enough to hear about them, you have no excuses!

 

[Regulus Tera]

"Oh Madoka," murmured Homura, as she leaned in for a kiss. Their lips connected even as their bodies entwined together like a Challah bun. In the bathtub, they rustled together in that tightly confined space, the heat of their bodies turning the water into a soup of filth and bubbles.

So now's the part with the knives right?

 

[tiff]

Looks like Ishikei/NiseMIDIdoronkai is doing an Infinite Stratos doujin for the next comiket. Buying regardless of me not watching since his stuff is wonderful!

He, uh, seems pretty good, yeah.

I forget what all I've read from him, actually.

Yes! Yes!

 

[Hellsing321]

So now's the part with the knives right?

I didn't know you were into guro.

Don't google that!

 

[Jex]

To me good anime is stuff I enjoy. So definitions!

Pff, I enjoy Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky. That doesn't make it a good movie!

Mononoke had the weird art style. I totally understand people not liking it.

If people are that easily bothered my art I don't know how they watch anime!

Unless it's Gankutsuou which has given people headaches...

 

[Geneijin]

We were already insane and you know it.

Not really. I wasn't around when the Code Geass S1 fiasco happened, so I can only assume the worse is happening now.

Besides, I still haven't watched Madoka. I can't sympathize with the ongoing insanity =P

That would have been pretty cool~! Planetarian is nice and doesn't have any routes so it'd transition nicely.

I'll take it as a no then. How unfortunate. And I've heard good things about it too.

Childhood friends always lose. It's the law of anime.

But that doesn't explain why Kaoru won and was the better childhood friend.

Oh god, don't say that. Don't say there might be more. Spare me further pain!

You could always opt out icarus, but would you lose your friendship with your friend if you did?

 

[Dresden]

So now's the part with the knives right?

"I'm sorry," said Madoka. And Homura felt something cold enter her gut. She leaned back, and saw the wooden handle of a steak-knife sticking out from her stomach.

"I'm not Madoka. I'm a time-assassin sent by the Anti-Entropy department." And with that, Madoka stood up, and her skin peeled off to reveal a bipedal QB, model no. 6543.

 

[zeroshiki]

I didn't know you were into guro.

Don't google that!

Pfft. I assure you 90% of the people in this thread have their own collection.

... Not that I have any, mind you.

 

[InfiniteNine]

He, uh, seems pretty good, yeah.

I forget what all I've read from him, actually.

Go read Mikanal now!

I'll take it as a no then. How unfortunate. And I've heard good things about it too.

Honestly I know nothing about it being animated, so no info from me!

Pff, I enjoy Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky. That doesn't make it a good movie!

Pfftt, like I care.

 

[trejo]

"I'm sorry," said Madoka. And Homura felt something cold enter her gut. She leaned back, and saw the wooden handle of a steak-knife sticking out from her stomach.

I volunteer Regulus Tera as a proxy for Duckroll's ban.

 

[Crash Station]

If people are that easily bothered my art I don't know how they watch anime!

Unless it's Gankutsuou which has given people headaches...

Some people just like the generic anime art style. I know I'd rather have that than pretty much all of the other art styles out there.

 

[Jex]

Whelp, guess I can rewatch Azumanga Daioh to fill the Madoka-sized hole in my heart.

And then rewatch it again.

And then again.

And then again.

Or you could watch a good show.

 

[trejo]

Go read Mikanal now!

Catchy title.

 

[Jex]

You're right. It's not good, it's awesome.

That is the correct response.

 

[Branduil]

Or you could watch a good show.

He said he was watching Azumanga Daioh, not K-on.

 

[jman2050]

Or you could watch a good show.

 

[trejo]

Or you could watch a good show.

D-did you just... diss Azumanga? You did not just do that, right?

 

[firehawk12]

But that doesn't explain why Kaoru won and was the better childhood friend.

Rihoko is the older childhood friend!

Brandon Sanderson is already more interesting than the last 10 years of Jordan. I only feel bad that he's saddled with WoT and can't do Way of Kings or more Mistborn.

I don't read fantasy these days, so I'll have to take your word for it. :lol

 

[tiff]

Go read Mikanal now!

I might have already but I guess a second time couldn't hurt.

 

[Jex]

It's pretty low on the scales of "good writing" and "believable characters," though I realize people without monocles don't care much for those things.

To me Code Geass will always be a second-rate Glass Fleet.

I don't know, Glass Fleet doesn't have mecha. Then again, I haven't finished Glass Fleet.

A conversation about writing in anime (or anything really) is not going to end well regardless of ranking.

I can be assured that Gungrave is pretty low on that ranking.

 

[Hellsing321]

Or you could watch a good show.

Thats it. Time for the Azumanga Inquisition!

 

[trejo]

Thats it. Time for the Azumanga Inquisition![/IMG]

Nobody expects it.

 

[tafer]

All this Key hate makes me want to rewatch Kanon 2006 and read Planetarian. The only proper response to hate is love!

Brother!

 

[InfiniteNine]

We should do a group Kanon 2006 watch!

 

[Dresden]

Brandon Sanderson is already more interesting than the last 10 years of Jordan. I only feel bad that he's saddled with WoT and can't do Way of Kings or more Mistborn.

Way of Kings or Mistborn is junk, though.

We should do a group Kanon 2006 watch!

 

[zeroshiki]

I don't read fantasy these days, so I'll have to take your word for it. :lol

So you'll be making a comeback for ADWD? I actually prefer SF to fantasy books but I like the fantasy setting better. Its just that the proliferation of Dragonlance and AD&D stuff have made most fantasy generic and unbearable.

Way of Kings or Mistborn is junk, though.

Eh, I thought they were solid. Definitely not Martin or Rothfuss but Sanderson created some believable worlds. I thought the magic system in Mistborn was excellent.

Anyways, anime. I loved Scrapped Princess' fantasy setting. I thought that was the best one in recent years (Does Spicy Wolf count?). Of course somewhere in the middle Scrapped Princess goes to hell and unintelligibility but it was good while it lasted.

 

[Jex]

That reminds me, I was going to watch this after I finish Infinite Ryvius, Aria the Whatever, and Toradora. Maybe slot Angel Beats or Kanon 06 somewhere in there. Man, I need more hours in the day. >_<

Dedicating any amount of your life to KEY seems to be a waste.

I didn't dig Trapeze at all, and Mononoke is one of my favorite(est) animu ever. I should give it another shot one day.

Trapeze is great, but I think it takes a couple of episodes for it to find it's feet.

 

[Regulus Tera]

I volunteer Regulus Tera as a proxy for Duckroll's ban.

aww

 

[Crash Station]

Yeah, let's get a stream going. I imagine it will be a thousand times more offensive than this thread.

 

[tafer]

We should do a group Kanon 2006 watch!

I'm in!

Or you could watch a good show.

Not cool man, not cool.

 

[zeroshiki]

We should do a group Kanon 2006 watch!

I have a better idea. Let's stab ourselves with sporks!

 

[jman2050]

I've never seen more than one or two episodes of Kanon 2006.

That was a disastrous experience, does it get worse later on?

 

[Jex]

We should actually take this to the Madoka thread, and maybe do something like 5 pages per week, and keep going until a) it becomes completely incomprehensible, or b) they actually air ep11 and 12.

Well, it's not like b is happening any time soon.

Damn, I was just thinking of how ep11 could start, and I realized that ep9 actually ended with Madoka unconscious, and lying in Homura's apartment. Homura is now completely alone with Madoka, who is unable to resist her desperate advances. :/

I didn't realise you wrote doujin, duckroll.

 

[InfiniteNine]

I basically have to, so I'm in!

Tell us when you start~!

 

[Dresden]

A Code Geass R2 stream is always a riot. I've sat through a few and it's always good.

Anyways... who's seen Morita-san wa Mukuchi? What the hell is it?

 

[firehawk12]

So you'll be making a comeback for ADWD? I actually prefer SF to fantasy books but I like the fantasy setting better. Its just that the proliferation of Dragonlance and AD&D stuff have made most fantasy generic and unbearable.

I posted in the HBO thread that I'm basically too old to read that stuff now and was promptly reminded that I post on GAF. :lol
I'll watch the show at least. We'll see how it goes with reading the books.

And yeah, I've read one single series to completion over the last 15ish years and that was enough fantasy for me.

 

[Swag]

Save the Best for Last.

 

[duckroll]

I have a better idea. Let's stab ourselves with sporks!

I'm currently drowning myself in the kitchen basin.

 

[Hellsing321]

Does the pope shit in the woods?
