Huh. Surprisingly okay. I mean, the main character is a pathetic dweeb, but his life's not quite so pathetic that I can't stand watching him. Perspective is fucked on so many of these shots though.
What if it was an online chat and Ken forgot to capitalize the first letter of his own username?Can't believe the teacher failed to capitalize the 'k' in Ken.

So you're saying that she wants to show him her boomerang.In the next part, she gives him a boomerang as a present.

Keep watching. I'd say there's enough surviving characters that give the viewer a reason to care.
Though I may be a bit biased since as far as I know, I'm the only animegaffer that legitimately unironically likes Elfen Lied.
Well, Ken's certainly eager to show off his new present to his friend Meiling.
I was just kidding, you realize; obviously if it's a lesson like that in a textbook they're talking face-to-face.It's not. They're both in a classroom and she's got all the pictures printed out.
I figure Kouta and whatsherface will make it to the end, but I really don't know what to expect out of future characters since a suitable counterpoint to Nyu was basically thrown away in the span of an episode.
I didn't know you taught! Private or JET?

I suppose I'm so straight-laced here usually that I should start marking my posts for non-serious intent to avoid misunderstandings.
Amazing Spider-Man 2-
Trying to decide if it's worse than Spider-Man 3 or not. I would have to rewatch SM3 to be sure but no way in hell that's happening.
Was it that bad because I haven't seen it yet.

Strikes me as a Man of Steel situation in that it's a problematic movie that's really polarizing.
Spiderman 3 at least had "Slick" Peter Parker and Sogood.gif to make a trainwreck hilarious.
Not sure what ASM2 has yet since I haven't bothered to watch it yet
It's really not. I can understand why people liked MoS despite it's glaring flaws. The action is nowhere near good enough to justify liking ASM2.
Let's put it this way, when I'm thinking about the film and how much I would cut out of it(either due to pointlessness or just being stupid), I was looking at over half the damn runtime.
And to think, quite a bit had been cut out already with the MJ scenes gone and everything missing from the trailers!

Yet the trailers still were able to spoil the entire fucking movie. They showed probably 70%+ of any noteworthy fight sequence in the movie.

So which actor do you prefer as spiderman, the original or the amazing spiderman one. For me I like Tobey much better.
I suppose I should admit that 70% is what convinced me to check out the other 30% since I had zero interest in this reboot like 10 days ago. :lol
harry... whats the point?
Godzilla will save anime~
I saw some car commercial with Godzilla on TV today and got a bit sad that they're already whoring him out for ads before the movie's even been released.Godzilla will save anime~
Elfen Lied 5
the last ten seconds of the episode ahahahahahahahahahaha
Of course not. I always fail watch bets.
I need to find a new mantra because this one helps me justify every bad watching decision I consciously make.
I'm not saying that I expected more, just that the show shouldn't be held up as some kind of pinnacle of graphic anime gore.
Oh, I misread. Thought you were talking about Brynhildr. Provided you aren't watching the slightly-moderately censored TV version, you will definitely see entrails and stuff.
As far as why it's held up as a pinnacle of graphic anime gore, I would say that has more to do with it being one of the first popular instances of grotesque cute in the medium in the west. The dichotomy of seeing cute girls in a cute art style getting slaughtered/doing the slaughtering is more effective to some people than seeing it happen with a gritty art style in a gritty universe. When you watch stuff like Genocyber or other hyper gory OVAs, you won't be as taken off guard by the graphic violence.
Elfen Lied 3
Okay, now we're getting into the meat of the bullshit. Let's start with the very first scene in the episode: I don't think I've ever seen another anime where a male accidentally ends up in a compromising position with a girl and is seen by someone else is treated as an actual cliffhanger. I thought that, when Kouta's cousin finds him changing an incapacitated Nyu out of her wet clothing at the end of episode two, that it was simply being played off as a gag, but no. The next episode immediately returns to this and proceeds to turn it into a good old case of full-blown MISUNDERSTANDING DRAMA.
Cousin-chan isolates herself from Kouta because he's such a hentai baka, and, worst of all, doesn't remember a festival they went to together as kids. What a fucking lowlife, not obsessing over her after eight years of no contact. This gives her time to ruminate alone on her fond memories of their time together as children, and she begins to realize the true nature of her feelings, yes, those feelings, toward Kouta. This culminates in a heart-to-heart discussion at the end of the episode between the two where they resolve their differences and..........fuck, just look at the images below.
Remember the cycle, everyone:
Misunderstanding ->
Tsundere ->
Jealous and/or angst-ridden incest horseshit.
Translation: WHY DO YOU LOOK AT NYU THAT WAY (he isn't you dense moron) WHEN YOU HAVE MEEEE?!?
Visionary. Ahead of its time, although they have the decency to merely be first cousins instead of siblings.
Oh yeah, and nowMuch more interestingly, however,there's another Nyu (Nyutwo?) and she has some ripoff Gendo-Rei shit going on with Secret Conspiracy Guy.I expected a lot of weird things coming into this, but I didn't expect material forCommander Asshole has his balls forcibly cut off after his encounter with Nyu because they can, like, inject their genetic material into humans and if it comes into contact with his semen another Nyu will sprout out of his sack or something.fanfiction.MPREG
I say that this show would be better if it was just two girls getting along not because of SDBurton,
I think this is the first time I've noticed painted finger nails in the anime. It got me wondering why it never really shows up in most anime. Is it just harder to animate? I wouldn't think so, but what do I know.
Also, random girl on the left was animated, albeit it with the same two frames looped. Maybe she'll be a real character soon! lol
Meanwhile, SDBurton is busy in a dark room somewhere.
One Week Friends 5
I say that this show would be better if it was just two girls getting along not because of SDBurton,, but because you wouldn't have Hase-kun doing the fedora "nice guy" thing over and over again.who ruins everything (lol)
Although I suppose there's no way to tell an amnesiac that you're attracted to them, but it is creepy - as the show points out - that he's obsessed with her but is basically trying to "nice guy" her to death.
I'm waiting to hear back to see where I'm getting placed for JET...
Maybe the corrupting influence of the Fedora hasn't reached Japan yet and that's just sweet and innocent. I blame GAF for my cynicism!I thought it was awful. Caused me to stop part way through (about where stupid new girl stole his lunch). And I certainly don't agree with that assessment of Hase. Though he gets jealous pretty easily. Though I can understand it to a degree given his friendship in part survives purely on the diary.
