I would assume (or hope anyway) that when most people express their admiration for a certain character, female or otherwise, that they are doing so for reasons that extend beyond (or don't even include) the extent to which they stimulate certain unnamed specific parts of the human body.
I don't see a problem with that on its face, but then that's just me.
I don't know what the fuck camel toe supposed to being term for what before just now.. jebus.
oh my goodness you are going to love episode 11
Not that many. A major reason is also that people with poor eyesight are very rarely allowed to fly planes.
ja nai kara hazukashiky nai mon~
Superior joke.
Re-class is the better choice if you will tread that path. I am under orders not to fight you however.
With only two more months to go, there's a new short PV for the Ano Natsu de Matteru OVA bundled with the Blu-ray box coming out in late August:

Not a whole lot to see in it though, at least without knowing what the narration is saying (EDIT: oh, looks like someone took a stab at a translation in the comments). Better to just watch it for the new Ray song for now.
Oh, and the lovely snippet of the Vidro Moyou piano version at the end.
Here is the thing, there were but this show, this show here is THE temple and the template to which all who have come after it pray to and divine influence from. Sailor Moon wasn't the first Magical Girl show but it is the Ur-Example because of how much popularity and influence it carried within not just its genre but anime itself. At the base level, this is the show the likes of Girls Un Panzer seek as a primary source.
What path is that? I don't think K-ON made KyoAni go down any particular path.

So the age of lewd is over and thus begins the age of duckroll.
I approve.
Bakemonogatari
While hypocritical I did promise to watch this if my friend went out and bought Xenoblade. He's really into it now so I hope I can say the same for my side of the bargain. Here we go.
But Girls und Panzer is about tank battles, and progression through a tank battle tournament is the core of the entire show.
Talking about the end of the age of lewd while simultaneously starting Bakemongatari, I can't handle these contradictions.
I do not quite understand this analogy. Personal experience?I hate K-On because it's bland as hell and dreadfully boring. I made the comparison ages ago to shoving a stick of butter in your mouth but thinking about it more it's more like eating a cracker where the baker forgot the salt.
Lineage? I might give you C3 under some circumstances, though even that actually diverges from any sensible breakdown of the K-ON formula past the superficial level.This is true and it is a much better show then K-On! but I do not forget that it also it part of the linage. I suppose a better example would be like C3-Bu I think I was like one of a dozen people who watched that show.

URGENT COMMUNITY MESSAGE
It has bothered me for some time that there is a growing presence of lewdness in this community. That doesn't surprise anyone probably, given the nature of anime culture in Japan. For a time I have done very little because well, unless it's really NSFW, it's not really against ToS, and I don't want to control a community thread so much. That time is over. I have received feedback from enough people in this community about the increasing unease they with the shifting culture within.
I read the exchange the other day about cnet expressing his "preferences" with regards to NGNL and the cameltoe shit. And this is my reaction:
So here's what I have to say. Community threads are not "protected" from how the forum is moderated everywhere else. If people are feeling uncomfortable because someone is expressing views which are generally considered to be problematic in a larger social context, those elements will be removed. No one wants to hear about it, we don't want to bother with discussions defending "unpopular" preferences of characters, we don't want waifu wars, we just want to talk about anime without all the garbage.
If people want to talk about their preference of young girls drawn or otherwise, they can talk about it somewhere which is not NeoGAF. If someone wants to post sexy pictures or lewd stuff like panties, bust sizes, or "dat ass" or whatever, they can do so somewhere else which is not NeoGAF. Off-Topic no longer has "Hot Women" or "Hot Men" threads. Image spam for the purpose of self stimulation aid is discouraged throughout the forum. This will be no different. If you want to discuss your sexual fantasies, your fetishes, and what sexual gratification you get from drawn cartoons, you are not welcome to discuss it here.
If you're not happy with this, please find another community on the internet. I recommend 4chan, Reddit, or Animesuki for starters. If you want to complain, don't bother because this is my response:
THE LINE MUST BE DRAWN HERE. THIS FAR, NO FURTHER.
Yea, pretty much this, I know Azumanga Daioh really did get the moe sub-genre started and I have my misgivings for that sin, but that show is actuality entertaining and funny. I suppose on the other other hand K-On! merely bored me and wasn't the cosmic nightmare that was Lucky Star.
EDIT: Oh, I just saw what being said in the thread. What a bad time to make a Puchi gif.
Azumanga was lucky that because it was "the first" it was kind of before all the misgivings for cutesy anime. I don't think I've ever really seen anyone "outside" the anime community even mention it so I guess it has never really been in their face.Yea, pretty much this, I know Azumanga Daioh really did get the moe sub-genre started and I have my misgivings for that sin, but that show is actuality entertaining and funny.

Most people give up on episode one. I know I did back in 2006 where the grand total of anime I'd seen could be counted on one hand. Luckily I decided to give it a chance years later and I'm glad I waited to watch it because I could appreciate the humour more after familiarising myself with the "anime culture"I've seen this posted a few times and I'm curious, what was so bad about Lucky Star?
It was said earlier in the thread that we may be reaching the end soon. I kind of wish it didn't end. ;__; It's just a nice enjoyable three minutes to watch. Should note that series one was over by now.In side news, is Puchimas!! the show that will never end? 73 episodes so far, with another new episode preview at the end...

While we can be smart arses (like I usually am when it is brought up outside of this thread) and point of moe is a feeling and whatnot, we have to accept that moe to some means slice of life which itself isn't really a genre since technically they are either sitcoms or dramas.What is a moe subgenre.
Lucky Star's always polarizing to people. A lot of it is love it or hate it.
I felt like it had a slow start, but it gets great once they swapped directors.
What's funny is Lucky Star is my third anime I've ever watched and my first introduction into the otaku/anime culture. I liked it when I first watched it and now that I'm more familiar with animu I'm thinking of going back to re-watch and see how many of the references I get.
I hate K-On because it's bland as hell and dreadfully boring. I made the comparison ages ago to shoving a stick of butter in your mouth but thinking about it more it's more like eating a cracker where the baker forgot the salt.
Most of the first episode is pretty bad, but I liked the rest of the show.

But besides, you can't really hate a show with Chiyo's Father (voiced by Wakamoto).

Everyone talking about K-On is making me want to watch the show to see what has everyone so talkative about it.
And I don't think that was the intended effect some were going for...

So has anybody from lewd gaf here played conception 2? I've enjoyed it so far. Lewd aside.

Was there a tl;dr consensus on AnimeGAF's feelings towards Guilty Crown or were opinions pretty divided? I'm halfway through the series and it's like a rollecoaster. Starts out bad, gets a little better, is becoming bad again.
Well Lucky Star and Azumanga have a bit of plot since time actually does progress rather than say YuruYuri where they are trapped in the same year.I gave up on episode one. Couldn't do Lucky Star, couldn't do Azumanga, couldn't do Nichijou, couldn't do YuYuShiki (though I made it like three episodes in that one!) Generally speaking, I just can't do that kind of random gag-humor. I just need some semblance of a plot or overall continuity to keep my brain from shutting off.

K-on is pretty much the most inoffensive thing ever. I didn't love it, but it was pretty alright.
Get mad at Tamako Market instead.
