I agree. I am hopeful. It didn't seem like one of those shows when I was watching it.
I am getting that feeling too. I only watched the first episode but I can already tell this is gonna be one of those anime that splits the community.
It's your own personal list. What's there to complain about? I don't think I've seen anyone really complain about it other than a few who have made an off comment about a few anime they would personally put in.
Must be that Gorilla stalker.
Otae should be nowhere near 5th... maybe she would just scrape into the top 20.
I fully agree with this. Maybe it seems I hype this movie too much but I truly believe it to be one of the best films in existence. It hit me on a level I never expected, and Im not even a person very much interested in romance.
Highly disagree. For one thing,
they were the ones making a documentary and the method of jump-starting Chiyoko's memories of her past
Genya, who developed a romantic interest in Chiyoko and recalled his feelings for her as he self-inserted in various movie roles as the hero to her. All the time she was chasing her love in the shadows, someone who truly loved her for all she was was never discovered until it was too late.
still bittersweet that Chiyoko finally died able to remember her love for someone who drove her very meaning to live and Genya demonstrated a little of how much he cared for her

And then he promptly (and quite coldly) says that he's joking.
They already did that with Eureka Seven.

I haven't seen E7 yet, it's on my to do list along with way too many other things to watch :X
Well, damn, I didn't know anime was one show.

I'm usually the first to make fun of anime being perverted, but I can't condone such generalization.
Can't wait for the next character poll arc!
No Game No Life 2
While this show is still disgusting, I have to admit I was entertained by that episode. Any episode with a Jojo reference can't be that bad, even if it is used in totally the wrong context. Also...
Even the main character admits it!
It's one person and a few community threads.

I love when we take things out of context of the scene....
Valvrave doesn't even deserve the smell the farts of Code Geass, that how much inferior it is :/
Do people really not know this meme? Does nobody here watch Supernatural? For shame :/

It's weird because the show has these perverted shots, yet it keeps making these self-aware comments and jokes that it's almost charming. Almost. Like I'll still watch, but seriously make that sister speak like a normal human being. Stop sighing.

Large quantities of lewdness in this episode. Sadly it was mostly not of a kind that particularly appeals to me, but eh, I'm not complaining. Steph is definitely a fun character though, and the results of Sora's "request" were abso-fucking-lutely golden.
And as people have already mentioned, dat WRYYYYYYYY xp
Still definitely one of my favourite shows of the season so far.

I certainly do!
I don't normally watch TV for the sake of watching it unless it's late night PBS. I already have anime for that.

I consider "not knowing a meme" an achievement. So good job, me.

I like the shinsengumi too, but no way in hell are they better than Gintoki or Madao. Also gori-chan isn't the top one, which I would forgive. FUCKING RECOUNT.

I'm sure Ume-sensei is a timeless classic in whatever future LOGH is set in, seems right to me.
Madoka Magica Rebellion.
Ok I seriously loved this movie but I can see why it would piss people off.
The reason that
was basically, from what I gathered anyway, because
I found the opening to be quite an interesting setup
The cake song was ADORABLE. Like I had to listen to it three times watching the movie and then I found it on youtube and watched it a good dozen other times. Definitely my favorite part. Also the transformations of the girls were very creative and fitting for a movie.
Some things I did have issue with are
that was pretty fucked up. Although it did give the movie one more cutie to squee at.
which was disappointing.
Overall I think the movie had some weird pacing and just literally ended on a specific idea. I was left wanting to see more. I feel like I understand where the movie was trying to go though so ultimately it was an enjoyable experience. But yeah, its going to provoke a LOT of fans. In that way I guess Madoka Magica really is the Eva of magical girl shows.
One thing this movie is though, is beautiful. Shaft pulled all the weird mindfucks out of their hat with this one.
One final thing. Im not very good at spotting symbolism in cinematography and all that jazz, but
Ok I seriously loved this movie but I can see why it would piss people off.
The reason that
Homura turned evil
Madoka had become a "law of the universe" and the ultimate good. Homura realized that the only way to preserve her memories of Madoka forever and to truly make her hers (a very selfish love of course) was to break that law and thus become the polar opposite of Madoka, necessitating becoming ultimate evil.
taking place entirely in Homuras mind as a witch under control of Kyubey's species in a bizarre experiment of sorts
Some things I did have issue with are
Bebe as Mami's pet
Surprisingly though she had very little relevance to anything

was there a prison motif going on there? So many vertical architectures like prison bars or a jail cell. I mean they were trapped in Homuras world against their will and deceived.

Wow, someone is salty today. Uncalled for!
To be fair, Millennium Actress isnt given enough credit in the anime community. To say it is vastly underrated is itself an understatement.

Just my little joke.

If I'm going to be completely honest I've never seen Millenium Actress. Or Tokyo Godfathers. Two movies the anime community seems to not shut up about. But then again it took me pretty long to give Wolf Children a try. And I'm glad I did
so I could say it was a bit overrated
Before I kill you, I'm going to take the BD of Gravity and then piss on it while you watch.
But it was about your people! Or wait, unless dogs have a beef with wolves.
Dogs are the domesticated sell-outs of the canine community, whereas wolves are all feral and keeping it real.

If you removefanservice from Qwaser , what remains is .......
Well
i have no idea.
Qwaser without fanservice = " "
A void.... Pure nothingness.
Cake song was pretty cool.
I agree with your reaction but i disagree with the "Eva of magical girl show".Unless i've missed something , Madoka puella didn't influence other show the way eva influenced some mecha show at the time.
I think puella magica is a very well done franchise , just not as revolutionnary as most people think.
Bebe
was a perfect exemple of a character that was there only to confuse the viewers.They knew perfectly the impact of this design would have on anyone who has seen the Tv show. Same thing for her real form. I recall some crazy theories when her human design was revealed and some people thought it was a human form kyubei , and other thought that it was madoka+homura daughter... I feel like her entire existence was made only to throw people off because if you pay attention , most of the important talk was made by sayaka and she could have performed that duty by herself no big deal.
The writters , such trolls.
So addicted to canned slop they've forgotten real meat.

The LOGH universe didn't engineer wideface. So I am somewhat doubtful.
Her is that film about Hollywood taking the concept of waifus and trying to make it serious right?
You still have Hana!
This is literally what I thought. And I'm hyped for it.
Well I dont think there will ever be another show that made an impact on a whole industry like Eva, hence when I say the Eva of Mahou Shoujo in this case Im more referring to how it transcended the normal boundaries of a mahou shoujo audience and also how the story was extended into a movie that went a highly controversial direction.

You self-loathing bastard.
I love dogs, but furries and animorphs are a bit harder to get into.
Now if you excuse me I must leave you. My people.
THEY NEED ME
Guess you missed the Toonami run.
You self-loathing bastard.
HEEEEIDIIIIIII

It's a bit early to tell, but we're already getting shows that attempt to ride off the success of using the theme of 'tragic magical girls' like Selector Infected WIXOSS or Day Break Illusion. I don't think we would have seen these particular shows pop up if Madoka hadn't ended up performing as well as it did.
Edit: Man I hate how they spell that word. "we-cross" =? WIXOSS

E7 was on like episode 40ish when I joined Toonami GAF and it was a rewatch for seemingly everyone so it didn't seem like it'd be worth the effort to catch up
Hitsugi no Chaika 2
Wow, I really like the way the main character fights in this. Always on his toes and keeping his enemies on theirs, using anything he has to hand to lay sneaky traps the second he gets a free moment, while also not being afraid to charge in and mount a direct offensive when the situation calls for it.
This show continues to be much better than it feels like it has any right to be.

Hana ? her entire role is to be a soma emergency walking battery for her "queen".
I don't count that as something meaningfull.( if you don't care about fanservice )
I liked qwaser , it was fun to turn off your brain and enjoy : Huge boobs sucking, finger sucking and that "part licking" + yuri + shota rebel main character in a world that isn't a battle shonen nor a straight mystery , aventure nor action .
I honnestly don't even know if the qwaser writter knew what it wanted to do except draw the characters type he wanted to and be as perverted as he could.
