Wait there were people who thought a series called "my little sister can't possibly be this cute" and then read the description of the plot set up thought it wouldn't incest end... Huh?

I had hope he would of made the right choice in the end. I was very wrong about that.

bad gameplay lol
So what happens when you let Bryan Lee O'Malley draw your Young Avengers cover? You get Tomoko from Watamote as Miss America.

Huh? What did I say? Did I screw up again? :(
Surely you saw this all coming. You were warned about it. You were pleaded with not to go on. Now you can never un-watch it.

;_;

Best ending.
Shame they wimped out at the end. :(

You just wanted to se a pregnant Kirino I bet :-/

Still 1000x better than the Usagi Drop manga ending.

Oh no... :-( Thanks for the heads up... I'll leave my love for the work resting on only the anime then.
 
Been working on my backlog in between watching Spring shows. Ended up finishing Shirokuma Cafe and Wooser recently. Both shows ended up being great and just what I wanted. Shirokuma Cafe I originally went into for an easygoing show to watch after a long workday. I ended up getting more attached to the cast than I expected, but I guess that's to be expected after sticking with it for 50 episodes. Recommended to anyone who enjoys cute animals doing cute things as well as any fans of puns. Watching Wooser directly after was a good contrast. Went pretty quickly through both seasons as the episodes are only 4 minutes apiece. Not much of a chance to get attached to the characters, but still was great for a laugh at the end of the day. Now to find another show that can serve my after-work niche.

Haven't dropped any Spring shows that I originally started quite yet. The bulk of the shows I'm watching thus far tend to air on Sunday/Monday so this season has been great for working on my backlog from prior anime seasons. It works out well since I have a feeling Summer is going to be booked.

Shuffle! 07-09

Lots of Asa and Sia in this batch of episodes. Looking at the way the game pages are organized, Sia seems to be put forth as the "main" girl, which explains why she's had the largest amount of focus thus far. Everyone else is still getting their little moments in - Nerine's school swimsuit, Primula's really nice sandcastle subject to the mercy of the the tides, and some other lewd scenes, two of which have involved Asa. The characters are enjoyable to watch, and the rainbow-like color scheme is nice to look at, with the brown of the school uniforms serving as a nice counterbalance to create an even feel. The romance moments are cute, too. That's the charm of these romantic comedies - seeing the characters play off each other.

But we don't look down upon the film watching community because of porn.
If it only looked like smut from the outside people sure would. Which is generally what people see of anime.

But even though that's an issue, it's probably not the key issue. That would be the wrong titles getting the most exposure, and no good entity big enough to direct people elsewhere.

Majin Bone Episode 5:

Oh goodie, the Blue Turbo Ranger showed up and guess what he still sucks.
Thank god he predictably got his ass kicked in battle as we FINALLY get some personality from the villain side of things.
Also, Saho needs her own show or at least to become the sixth ranger as she is genuinely more interesting that so many female empty vessels that I have seen this season.

One day I realized that sadness is just another word for not enough coffee.
I'm trying to figure out who's who:

Hulk, Stark, 'Murica, Loki, ???, Thor/Hawkeye?

EDIT: Oh my god Hawkeye is a girl in this one.

Hulk, Wiccan, 'Murica, Loki, Hawkeye, Marvel Boy (who the fuck?)

[Hunter x Hunter 2011] - 102

Okay, so, real talk.

It's finally happened. After literally dozens and dozens of high-quality episodes we've arrived at what I had feared the whole show would be like. Here's a list of problems with the last few episodes:

1. Really poor quality animation: This would be fairly common in any long-running shounen series but this series managed to dodge this bullet for so long that I had imagined it was never going to happen, but it did.

2. Obvious and lazy padding: Leaving aside the story itself, there's been a whole bunch of tell-tale padding that really grates on my nerves. For example, flashbacks to earlier episodes (almost excusable), flashbacks to really recent episodes (inexcusable), flashbacks to the same damn episode (disgusting).

3. Infinite-Time-Shounen-Theory-Crafting-Internal Discussion-In-The Middle-Of-A-Fight: This one is fairly self explanatory. This show, like any number of shounen shows, has always had this as part of the action but earlier in the show they either trimmed it down or removed it, now they're dragging it out as long as possible,

Still, the show managed to avoid all these sins for a good long time. It's a shame.
 
Yowapeda Episode 29

Finally we leave this segment of the race and head on to bigger and brighter things. The Toudou Maki-chan episode of great quality was a perfect capstone experience bringing to life one of the most pleasant relationships in the series. I can only hope that someday we get such close bonds and sharing/synchronization with Imaizumi and Naruko.

Toudou for life.

Just to clarify how reasonable the production for Hunter x Hunter was for dozens and dozens of episodes, Madhouse, the animation studio producing the series, only turned to their old friends Dr. Movie to do really significant animation once the show hit the 90's. That's when it looked roughest.

Black Bullet 04

So Rentaro is a
cyborg, of some sort?
That explains a few things. The show continues to be gruesome, but I'm hoping that, now with the first arc/book completed, there's at least a brief cooldown period. If there's some sense of what's being fought for, then it prevents the show from slipping into being something too hopeless. Enju's cuteness is enough of a reason. And poor Kayo. That's two shows this season with girls who have some sort of parasite controlling them. Not the first parallel I expected.
 
I warned you about that fuckin imouto power.
Imouto power sucks.
It's an escuse for " i have nothing that defines me "
( even if it's wrong in this case )

This show is so fucking dumb except for
IpYMYBT.png

However, she is so awesome I might actually buy the show, just to support her existence. Im really conflicted.
I've already decided to not buy the show
I will however buy a fig is possible.
They are making a iM@S S2.
really ? that's great ..may the movie come ASAP.


Best fix of the month !

Was Sorairo still a Junior Member? Looks like he got banned again...

It certainly doesn't look good after just getting a rare reprieve from getting unbanned as a junior once already. :(
 
But we don't look down upon the film watching community because of porn.

As opposed to all the lewdish pictures from all other forms of media?

I don't know what communities you're going to then when somebody is discussing comics/movies/books and somebody goes "check out this close-up picture of [blank] in short shorts" or a very suggestive position/action.

I'm not saying stop but from what I've experienced anime tends to be the one where somebody needs to post a close-up of body parts or suggestive images in discussions. Comics are the close second of lewd images, but recently there has been a movement to bring down sexism in that. Don't know how that's going as I don't read comics/graphic novels outside of a few key ones

For fellow UK Gaffers I just noticed that Fate/Zero's Blu-Ray release over here will be priced extremely reasonably. Approximately £60 for the whole thing.
Wait there's going to be a release?! Oh MVM. Skeptical.

How did he manage that...

Jesus really? I warned him to stick only with this thread and safer threads. Where did he go that he got banned? Now it's most certainly a permaban.

Kamichu? No idea if you've already seen it, but you didn't have it on the list of anime you owned or on your MAL...

I havent. I think I put it in my cart but never purchased it.

You dont have to buy it but please do support any merchandise with her on it :D
You could even buy it and then toss it in a bin somewhere and neglect it. In fact she would love that!

Lots of people post gifs of girls in movies and stuff like that in some sexy pose or move. It happens a lot. I dont see how its much different from anime.
Like this from Into Darkness: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTmXQHjpODA
There is no point to this scene other than fanservice.

Huh, so Kurumi lost to Kotori. Good thing I don't care about International Saimoe so I'm not mad.

As a great lover of all things imouto, let me just say:

There is no justification for this outcome. NONE.


This is an incredibly accurate statement though. Gotta get back to Heartcatch and based Erika soon.

I would like to not gouge my eyes out, thank you very much.

Hey! Fresh is great stuff!

I wake up to Sorairo banned again and Chet posting a wakizushi pic. Just another day, I guess.

So what happens when you let Bryan Lee O'Malley draw your Young Avengers cover? You get Tomoko from Watamote as Miss America.

Who is Hulk giving a sensual nipple rub there?
 
Didn't they get a lot of crap over that scene afterwards? I remember people involved later regretting putting it into the final movie. Either ways my argument wasn't over scenes existing, but people feeling the need to post these fan service scenes in discussion. I can't count the times that somebody here has posted a very NSFW image.
