It looks so awkward. Especially since there is anime shots in-between the 3d model shots.

I love the Meijin as much the next guy but it's pretty obvious that the coolest is the Italian Dandy, Ricardo Fellini!
Ral is the coolest. spirit of gunpla and all that

It's like some kind of anime uncanny valley. Besides that, the rest of the show is quite fun though.

Little added scene with Law, Fuji, and Doffy was nice.

The Irregular at Magic High School Episode 7 Enrollment Part VII (mahouka)
Loved how the anime did the Crimson Prince and Cardinal George intro scene at Third High. Couldnt stop rewatching and then George just standing there the whole time while he showered and then starring while he got out, I wonder if they even do that at home too. Voice wasn't what I expected but was a perfect fit. Need Nine Schools Competition and
now.
Solid adaptation of this first arc. Action moment this episode wasnt that bad and made me glad Madhouse is doing it and putting up a much better visual display than they did for Mahou Sensou of last season. Comedy Kirihara was hilarious.
I wish they had said Yotsuba Maya voice, as a few weeks ago I wondered why she hadnt had a va yet.

Fellini is the next best. There are too many cool guys. Way too many for one show. Even Nils is badass.

Love this new ending so much in Mekakucity Actors, the feels man. And thank the living heavens that Nisekoi is about to finish because it seems like Shaft is finally putting in some budget for Mekakucity Actors. Considering the animation looks better.
No offense but the only thing I like about Nisekoi is Marika and maybe Tsugumi.

Preferred Headphone Actor more, the instruments in it too, such a good take on another of my favorite songs from Kagepro.
Zaku Amazing Tatsuya was the best.

Brynhildr in the Darkness - 07
This show is beginning to come into its own by slowly building my interest in the main plot. Originally the oppressive and bleak nature of the world made me want to drop the series a couple of times already. While I'm still not totally comfortable with the cartoonish desire of the antagonist to waste life, it feels like I'll be able to continue watching (for now).

Stick with it. The payoffs on this show are fantastic.
Just be warned that episode 4 was directed by a different guy and the characters are all off model and it looks weird. It's only that one episode, though. And episode 6 is SUPER fanservice but it never goes to that level again thankfully.
Just watched episode six and it just reaffirmed everything that I didn't like about that show *_*
We're sad and attractive young girls.
And we were experimented on.
And we ran away.
And everyone wants to kill us.
And they're horribly sadistic.
And we die if we don't take a specific pill every 24 hours.
And we have a instant death button our bodies that causes our entire bodies to melt.
And my best friend died.
And my puppy was slaughtered.
And I only have one wish to fulfill before I die.
And i'm going to die on my birthday/bar mitzvah/Christmas/important day.
It's so hideously contrived and try-hard lol. Everything just has a giant "FEEL BAD FOR THIS GIRL" sign above their heads. How many times can the protagonist go, "these poor girls, they live such hard lives!", and have evil dudes kill defenseless girls to show you that they are evil?

I watched it dubbed on my first run. Dub isn't bad, but subbed is the superior version.
Gundam Build Fighters 17 - 25: Series Review
Amazing. Brilliant. Stupendous. Spectacular.
It's been a while since I've seen an anime that's just been this consistently amazing since the first episode.
So yeah, At first glance, this show's premise sounds like your basic scheme to advertise as much Gundam products as you can. And in a way, they do. But rather than just throw fan-favourite Gundams out there for the sake of fanservice, they modify them in ways that reflect the theme of the show that is being creative with Gunpla and using your imagination. Not only that, they actually are able to tell more than just a simple tournament story. Gundam Build Fighters is a story of perseverance, friendship, and how a simple (and yet not so simple) toy can bring people together and change them.
The characters in GBF are wonderful. All the main characters join the tournament for different reasons. Some to be the very best, yes. Others for slightly different, and darker reasons that are explained as the shows goes on.
I think my favourite character out of all of them was Aila. Her story was the best.
A poverty-stricken girl is taken in by a company due to her being able to predict the outcome of Gunpla battles. Due to the way the company treats her, she develops a hatred for Gunpla battles and is quite angsty about the thing. But the show doesn't dwell on this angst. Instead of constantly seeing her depressed, we see her doing other things that can make any regular person happy! She's not just a stereotype. She's a human being.
Hell, even the villains arent just stereotypical villains! I especially liked how in one scene in a later episode the villains secretary goes
"With this power, you can take over the world! And he just responds with, "Nah, thats too much work.
But it wouldnt be a Gundam celebration if there werent any cameos were there? Episode 23 was filled to the brim with these. Including one I wasnt fond of.
Hey! What the hell are you two idiots doing here? Go back to Gundam X where you belong!!
I was also very happy to see that
Gundam Exia, one of my favourites got a lot of love in the late episodes. I also love how when they introduced it they showed it coming out of Celestial Beings ship. Lol.
The show also does that thing I oh so always love to see in my anime, playing the theme song during its epic battles! But seriously, I almost jumped out of my chair in joy when the first opening song played during the championship match in episode 24.
So in conclusion, go see it. If you like anime and whether youre a fan of Gundam or not, this show has so much energy that I think its a good anime to introduce people to Gundam. Sunrise put their freaking hearts and souls into making this anime. I would talk more about it and praise it further but there's just way too much to praise it for. Why are you even still reading this? GO WATCH THIS SHOW RIGHT NOW.

Love it when they transition into that style for those quick moments.
Nishi appearance at the end was great.
Sucks that we have to wait another week before he speaks.

Looks like the international Studio Ghibli staff is considering a Reddit AMA. What kinds of questions would you ask them if they did one?

Welp, looks like we're
. It's an effective method of keeping the stakes and tension high, that's for sure.
But in the meantime...karaoke, swimsuits and maid cafes, oh my! I really enjoy this show's balance between the morbid melodrama and the more lighthearted harem-esque stuff. Kuroneko's
and Kazumi's
were pretty priceless XD

So guys how do you feel about this new Ending of Mekakucity Actors with Ene, because I fuckin love it even though I said it once already. Though I don't know which ending is better, the first one or this.

Right. This goes for many aspects of the series, of course. They totally know what they're doing and the show works because both the viewer and the audience are on the same page.

How long do they seriously think they'll last without the masters raking in the money? I mean, that's kind of the most obvious business related question that the senior staff have no doubt been wrestling with for years.
Also, why do you drive out talent like Hosoda that could have carried your Studio forward?
I don't understand why anyone would talk about girls in a series about beautiful robots.
