CR has Glasslip

Since they've partnered with TBS for quite a few seasons now, it's almost certain that Rail Wars and Locodol will end up with them too, meaning my first day of streaming for the new season is more or less secured.

Though I'd love if they could get PriPara.
 
Does anyone know where this is from:

I've seen Valkyria Chronicles anime but don't recall the wedding to be animated.

It's from last OVA of original Valkyria Chronicles anime.

So happy about this. It was almost the single anime I was looking forward to next season. :)

Fate/Zero 2

Servants thus far assembled...

Saber:
King Arthur
, who we all know and love.
Archer:
Gilgamesh
, who we all love to hate, the magnificent bastard. Interested to see how the hell he's going to
wind up as Kirei's Servant
considering how this episode ended >.>
Rider:
Iskandar
, who seems like a real character. Loving the awkward dynamic he has with Waver.
Caster:
Bluebeard
, who is creepy as all fuck. His master seems like a pretty fun guy...you know, for a depraved serial killer.
Assassin:
Hassan
, because as per Heavens Feel,
all Assassins apparently go by that name.
His little "dancing" scene in this episode was gorgeously animated, but
it looks like that may be all we get to see from him, because he seems to have been killed off already. Well, if you go straight up against Gilgamesh unprepared, what do you even expect.
Berserker: Sir Not Appearing In This Episode, so no clue on his identity yet. Poor Kariya, as if being horribly doomed wasn't enough, now he has to be neglected as well?

So I believe that just leaves Lancer and his or her Master as a mystery for now. I await further developments with bated breath.
 
The VC1 adaptation was... well, at least it wasn't the P4 adaptation.


I don't know what this means!

Both of them have the issue of running too long. The thing about the VC1 anime that I don't like is what they did to some of the characters. Welkin seems to be more decisive and confident in the game and Alicia.....well:


They also forgot Vyse!!! Flipping aniplex

They gave way too much time to the bad guys, probably because of all the Selvaria fanboys out there. That stuff just dragged the whole thing down.

But we are not blood related so it's OK
You keep telling yourself that!

Happiness Charge Precure: 21


Sorry... couldn't resist, even if somebody did it before me or not,
despite having no plans to watch Max Heart
.

So... looks like next week is when this storyline is coming to its peak. Should be fun.

Shiny Luminous is so terrible.

I remember being really pissed after watching the first episode of the VC anime. From the sound of things, i'm glad I didn't continue.

Back to the normal pattern of announcing simulcasts in the order they're going to air, Crunchyroll picked up Shirogane no Ishi: Argevollen. Thursdays at 8:30am PDT.

Now I'm really confused why they announced their Hamatora S2 simulcast so early, when it's actually in the last third of the season's airing order.

Also, the fact that Crunchyroll's twitter account seems to be broken and is tweeting articles way later after they were actually published is a bit annoying.

Shes a show killer. thats what she is.

Eh, while it's true that Shiny Luminous is one of the weakest main characters in Precure, I don't think it's fair to accuse her of killing Max Heart. Max Heart was perfectly capable of killing itself with or without her help.


Fate/Zero 3

Holy shit what.
Kirei has a whole freaking army of Assassins?! Is that even allowed?! And it seems like that Gilgamesh/Assassin showdown was completely staged on both sides. Well, except for the Assassin who got slaughtered, I don't think Kirei bothered to tell him he was going to his death.
What a pair of sly bastards those two Masters are.

Not that Kiritsugu is any less sly, or less of a bastard. Sending out Saber and Irisviel together to mislead others about the real Master's identity is a clever ploy...even if it does amount to sending his beloved wife out into mortal danger while Kiritsugu himself sneaks around behind the scenes and
has amorous dealings with his other lover
. Honestly it's probably for the best that Illya will likely never see her father again, he's hardly the greatest role model ~.~

Still no sign of Kariya or Berserker. But at least we get to meet Lancer now!

dats true. Max Heart was a perfect storm of failure.
 
I need to return to Valkyria Chronicles. This motherfucker tho...

It's kinda weird for me how often people say that the game had some very hard chapters (especially that chapter 7). I have never thought myself as that good gamer but I really didn't have too many problems with the game. Sure with some chapters I had to do them again couple of times but when you learn the partterns of the enemy it really wasn't that hard. Not to mention that I played the game trough without knowing that you can save during battles... Would have saved many hours...
 
When you want to watch a mecha show I suggest trying out Da-Garn, same series as GaoGaiGar, and I believe it shares the same script writer.

All right, I'll give it a shot.

Da-Garn - 1

Holy shit. This robot is like the Chambro of the 90s. Right now, anyway.

Don't know if this show counts as mecha though since this robot essentially has no pilot. That kinda worries me.

Mamoru from GaoGaiGar actually served a purpose at least. I hope this kid doesn't end up just being some happy guy on the sidelines.

Right now, this basically feels like Transformers. Though at least this show has a better first episode than Gravion.

A lot of the Brave anime weren't heavily focused on pilots, I'll stop myself from saying much else.

Saint Seiya episode 13 (I watched beyond this, but still)

Well that escalated quickly.

lol, yeah, I save scummed pretty hard at the end. Also did the Alicia exploit to get free XP.
