After reading all of the Genshiken manga, and liking it, I was checking around now the anime with thoughts of watching it with a friend some day. But... damn, what an adaptation. Visually it's... let's say below average, done by minor studios and they changed around in both seasons and in ovas (Palm Studio, Ajia-do and Arms). And it's lacking the most important arc and the ending!
It makes me appreciate more the luck we are having in the new Hunter x Hunter adaptation: all adapted, great respect for the original material, fairly good budget for a series so long, Madhouse seal of quality in animation and direction.
-No Ogie arc where she starts to accept herself.
-No romance between her and Sasahara.
-No Mada & Saki final scene where the truth is revealed.
-No graduation scene to give proper closure.

Pretty sure that spoiler 3 was covered close to the end of Genshiken Second Season.

I suppose they have a flashback then for that scene, which make sense because if not, specific key plot points couldn't happen smoothly in the second season.
You're both just talking about different scenes.
Wait a minute. Isnt that Tomoyas father from clannad when he was like 20?Come on, you guys aren't even trying.

I'm talking about the third-to-last chapter of the manga, where
he almost confess her feeling but choose not to, and have a nice scene together full of emotion, and I suppose he is talking the scene where Mada finally confess her feeling to her pressured by everyone else.

My bad, I assumed "reading all' meant what was already available and not just the first nine original volumes. Been a few months since I read the omnibuses and the continuation series.
Nah, that's just regular Tomoya's father if I recall correctly.

Hopefully someone decides to go back a few years to license missed gems like Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei and Minami-ke.
Ah could be I only remember his look in After Story. But anyway that means that his
post was a lie. And here I though, that I could trust AnimeGAF :,(

That is him in After Story. He's
in jail
Edit: Or, wait. Did you think it was Tomoya's father at 20 in that picture?
Well I admit your impressions were inspiration to my bored afternoon solution.
Well for starters I recognise a lot of the songs now a ha ha ha. I'm sure there's still a lot of little titbits that I won't notice because my entry to the iM@S universe is still very much via the anime shows rather than the games. Also Miki really did suck from the get go. What does she even bring to the table? "I have a big chest" she says, well so do Takane and Azusa and they are far better. Total waste of space. I still have the whinge trip arc to "look forward to".
That's exactly what I thought! My bad, lol.
As long as you're also prepared for Sentai's quality to keep dropping as they license more and more stuff, sure.
--------------------------
Capcom may be refusing to do anything more with the Onimusha series, but Crunchyroll is looking out for you people, which is why they've added the Onimusha Dawn of Dreams movie -- which is literally just an edited compliation of the game's CG cutscenes with some new footage -- to their catalog titles.

Knights of Sidonia-5
So close to true love.
Just to be sure , sidonia IS a normal anime , right ?
Other than the dumb looking 500 blade clashes in a mere second, that looks fucking amazing.

Damn this has gone to One Piece/Dragon Ball pace during this arc. Soooo slooooow. Really shame because before ths arc pacing was one of the biggest strenghts of this show compared to other long running shonens.

Dammit guys all your talking about Fate Stay/Night made me finally boot up my copy of Realta Nua on my Vita and start it. Even though I always told myself I wasn't going to play it until I finished Persona 3.
...One prologue and a bit of main story later and I'm wondering where the hours disappeared to. As if I needed another thing eating up my time T_T
Whoever said that Rin should have stayed the main character was totally right though. Dat Ueda Kana <3

I'll be honest -- I feel kind of stupid posting this, since it was announced over eight hours ago, has probably been on multiple news sites by now, and a couple thread regulars even posted about it over in the gaming side thread for it, but for whatever reason nary a mention has been made of it here yet.
But anyway, in the rare event someone hasn't seen it yet, figured you ought to know.
The first pair of post-launch characters getting added to Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax are Miyuki Shiba (with Tatsuya added as a support character) and, who a lot of you were probably waiting for, Taiga Aisaka (with Ryuuji as support). No details on their playstyles yet, but I'd think they would be fairly obvious.

Also, I guess this means you can have Rie Kugimiya vs. Rie Kugimiya without it being a Shana mirror match now, which is nice.
Now I am confused. I reacted to the "12 years old" comment on that picture.

Gundam 00 S2: 19-20
Oh my goodness this show is bad. It's a shame, after a good first season and a good start to this one, the way it goes is just painful.
B'TRAYED! HAHAHAHAHAHA.

So they capture one of the Innovators and during his interrogation, the "SHOCKING TWIST" is revealed to all the members in CB that Anew is an Innovator working for Mr. Almark! Come on, they really suspected NOTHING from her? Not even you Not-Lockon when she did that flinch during your kiss?
So of course we have our big battle to try and win her over back to their side, to which it almost works, then Ribbons does some wibbily mind controlly thingy over her or something which causes her to strike back at Not-Lockon so Setsuna can finish her off.
I really should have saw that coming when Not-Lockon established his love for her in such a rushed manner.

Yeah, but your comment could be interpreted in 2 different ways. Either you thought it was Tomoya's father that was 20 in the picture or you thought it was Tomoya that was 20 and the father was even older in the picture.
He is in the late 30s or something in the picture, not 12 anyways.

Holy crap.
It was fairly obvious just from the scenes before the OP what the big reveal of the episode was going to be, but the way things played out after that reveal...hot damn.

Eh, as you mentioned that is a kid's show and also Youkai Watch seems like one of those local flavor animes that are far more popular at home then internationally so it is hardly surprising that it isn't the hot button.

Future Card Buddyfight! Episode 19: The Card Yota Left Behind! (engDUB)
Break out your futurecard! Fun episode, though more on the side of Yota speculation than the buddyfight. I feel as if the cast is just sending mixed messages about it, like he's just lost somewhere or something though some say he's dead cause of the shrine, but I cant just imagine that as being the case in this universe. Perhaps Ill be wrong

i am ok with the quality not being super high. Id rather it be available in lower quality than not at all.
I still kind of want this game. Its probably a mistake.

Most of the world is now in the 10th May
I will remember to celebrate Piccolo Day next year.
Zetsubou Sensei actually was licensed at one point, by Media Blasters; but they didn't do anything with it and eventually lost the license. The exact same thing happened to another anime I really love, Moyashimon. I'm a little doubtful they'll be brought over here (Zetsubou Sensei requiring a large translation effort, Moyashimon having a very limited audience), but I'd love to see them get Blu-Ray releases at some point.

What the fuck is even going on in this show anymore? I feel like they forgot to include entire scenes in the last 2 episodes. Pretty much ready to drop this.

Not even Nanana pudding time or Tensai can salvage this show. Its like theyre just adding random scenes to fill up the time slot.

Yeah, I'm fairly certain a few scenes in that episode needed a bit more clarity. One in particular.

Meanwhile being Hitoe is suffering, being Yuzuki is suffering, being Ruuko is suffering, being pretty much anyone is suffering. I was actually quite surprised that
Dammit
that victory over Akira wasn't nearly cathartic enough. Everyone is pretty screwed now, though, since Akira's going to lose to Iona and basically turn Iona into a god. Good job, Akira, even when you're failing you still ruin things for everybody.
...I wonder if
Iona specifically manipulated Akira into hating her in the hope that she would wish harm on her and then that wish could be turned on its head. That would be pretty final-boss level scheming.
Meanwhile being Hitoe is suffering, being Yuzuki is suffering, being Ruuko is suffering, being pretty much anyone is suffering. I was actually quite surprised that
Yuzuki didn't lose her battle with the new girl, but I guess in a way it's crueler to leave her just enough hope that she has to keep struggling on with the threat of that final loss hanging over her head while everything falls apart around her regardless. In her case, I guess losing would almost be a kindness, because although she would lose Kazuki forever, at least her struggle would be over and she would have the opportunity to move on.
