That just left be numb because I made it through the first half of AO, so E7's grave had already been pissed on six ways from Sunday by the time I saw the OVA. I'd like to think that Narag is remembering something extra-horrifying that I've actually repressed, because the crossdressing is too blatant and too iconic a "fuck you" to ever forget.

I wouldn't go that far
Would still rather watch AO than anything SHAFT. Nothing worse than that.
I mean, it's an awful sequel, but on its own merits, its a mediocre mecha show with a typical nonsense plot with some sweet music and nice action here and there. If I were to get angry at any part of it, it would be Sho Aikawa as he obviously couldn't even be assed to check continuity with the original series and Kyoda probably had his head up his ass worrying about the music or some shit so he couldn't notice..
I can safely compartmentalize the various Treks despite crossover material. I think it's like Gundam or Macross in that regard where one bad apple doesn't spoil the bunch but man, the prequel trilogy just irked me the wrong way.
Then again, I only think 1/6 Star Wars movies are actually good anymore. : lol Thank you, Irvin Kershner.

Some people are just naturally angry at the world.
Nice joke. Shaft made Soredemo Machi wa Mawatteiru, after all.
No, that was it. I like to imagine you recoiled in horror and have since sort of let it blend in with the other disappointment experienced so as to not stand out and hurt you anymore.
If there was ever a time for a brown elf girl to win us over...
I suppose I should try Jojo one day.
Guilty by association. Anything Shaft is vile.
There's a good Hobbit movie in there, it just needs a competent internet editor to bring it out.
This is why Jackson sucks. If you're going to stuff and bloat a small novel into three three-hour features, at least make the sort of interpretive leaps that would benefit the story, like cute brown elves!
I might buy that if they hadn't cast Holland as Renton's adult VA.
Maybe we watched Apocalypse Zero the next day or something. lol
When Elena Peoples is a character in your show, is there any doubt about the demographic you're trying to attract?

Subete no aware
"better" is a relative term. Like, being shot in the leg is probably better than being shot in the stomach.I thought you were joking, then I googled it.
Come the fuck on. Well better that than Star Wars I guess.
So you don't hate Dark Souls 2? lol
lol

To be completely honest I've liked three shaft shows: And Yet the Town Moves, Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei, and Madoka. I mean I'm probably missing one more show, but three shows do not a favorite studio make.
waiting for the inevitable fan cut.
Demon's Souls happened too late in my life for that to be the case.

You're the one missing out on the second-greatest anime comedy by holding tightly onto your prejudices.
JoJo is love. JoJo is life.

Why is Sidonia's animation so jittery, like the frame rate is bad. Does it have to do with the studio's budget because they could have done better.
But why would you humiliate your main character like that? It's also not like Ao is some sort of trap or that he even looks feminine for the most part.

Oh shit you guys reminded me Dark Souls II is out.
LATER.
LATER.
Misguided? Sure. Dumb? Yeah. Unfortunate connotations? Totally
Made with the intention of ruining the character? No lol. Its easy to understand why they did it. It's just dumb. Again, its all symptoms of the lack of a true creative understanding coming from the entire staff and production. Real lesson is that a proper sequel could not be made in 2012. Studio was compromised, and in the position where they feel they need to pander to a certain audience to succeed while not realizing that that audience is not who the original appealed to, different landscape. They shouldn't have tried and should have instead encouraged Kyoda to just do something else if they really wanted him to direct something.
Though If anyone had any idea what they were doing in the show, it was Yoshida, he felt he didn't need to involve himself to the extent of the original, but he sure as fuck made sure anytime Eureka was on screen, he was somehow involved.

Arby's is good stuff. Have you tried their Smokehouse Brisket? Mmmm, now that's one of the most satisfying fast-food sandwiches I've had.
someone please post the team america vomiting gif i'm too lazy
Head up, a weeklong Yen Press sale just kicked in earlier today over at Right Stuf, meaning this is a good chance to collect the entire Haruhi novel series or all of the currently released Spice & Wolf books.
Or the first volume of SAO, if you so choose.

And for my part, I must ask again: is the Book Girl series recommended?

I get the feeling Jackson intends for the hobbit to be watched before lotr when it's all said and done what with all the little additions, I guess, for stupid viewers so they don't have to actually infer what athelas or a morgul blade is later on.
The week when I realized they sold frozen arby's curly fries was arguably the best of my life.
I just ordered SAO this morning. noooooo
Living in a SoreMachi-less world? I don't envy you.
I had you pegged entirely wrong, Dresden. Entirely wrong.

Sadly I don't live in Texas anymore.
This too.
I mean, I can understand being a snob and dismissing all fast food whatsoever. But I can't understand singling out Arby's as the fast food restaurant deserving of special scorn. If there's a restaurant that deserves to be singled out it's McDonalds. They're everywhere and their food is absolutely dreadful.
Curly fries become really grimy as soon as they're not piping hot.
I stopped going to Arby's because the food is always cold and I get as much meat on the classic roast beef as I do the dollar sandwich. Roy Rogers is the roast beef chain of the gods, and I pity anyone who doesn't live near one. It's, like, one of the only things keeping me where I live.

I don't know. So much of the additions to The Hobbit have basically been fanservice for people who liked Lord of the Rings. It feels very much like Jackson feels obligated to make 'more Lord of the Rings' and is shoehorning all that stuff into The Hobbit so that people who loved the previous films will enjoy it more.
It really is on the same level of shitty decisions made by George Lucas over the past couple of decades. I don't think he, like Lucas, intentionally tried to sabotage his own franchise but the level of decision making is so piss poor that it comes off as hostile to the fans. The show does such a great job crapping all over the canon and characters that how else is a fan supposed to interpret it? There are so many profoundly bad decisions from people who should have known better.
Well except for Aikawa. He's just a hack writer that shouldn't been hired in the first place. I would be fine if he never worked in the industry again. Fucker also did Conqueror of Shamballa.
Yoshida seemingly just took it as a way to get paid for drawing pictures of Eureka. God bless his soul.
Never really considered that. Makes sense!

I was distinctly unimpressed by the Roy Rogers burger I had recently; it was dry, barely better than your average McDonalds burger. Though perhaps it was a bad location, being in a turnpike service area and all.
