Haven't seen the show itself but the first 4 episode OVA is worth watching if only for nice mechanical animation.

is it really a Vn ? I was uner the impression that nobody wanted to make Vn for it since the vast majority of the market was elsewhere.
That would be one of the best use of kinect Ever.

It was bound to exist in this game
My thumb for Usagi Drop. But by all means, stay away from the manga, if you liked the anime.

I made a post here and in the Poster thread about trying to get together a bunch of people interested in doing a commission for an Aria poster: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=112894246&postcount=15414
Ultimately I'm not sure if there's enough interest in either the actual project or perhaps the property, but since I've got 7 interested people from AnimeGAF already, I thought I'd just post this a second time to see if anyone else might be interested.
Essentially, I'd like to do a poster commission for a piece based on some aspect of Aria. Everything would be decided by the group of people who would want in on the poster, including the artist, what the poster would look like, and so on, but for reference I would hope it would come out like this album art:
So, something with the main characters with some aspect of Venice/Neo Venezia in the background.
So why Aria? New members of AnimeGAF may not know, but Aria is one of my favourite anime and television shows. Through a science fiction utopian world view, Aria tells a heartwarming slice of life story that celebrates human life through the small wonders that are littered throughout our everyday lives. Having a piece of Aria art would hopefully capture some aspect of that magic, giving people a small window into a sentimental world full of joie de vivre. I know it'd probably be much easier to just take a page out of Amano's manga or art book and then just blow that up to poster size, but making this poster happen with other fans of Aria or anime would make that window something unique to our little shared community.
As I mentioned, we have 7 people interested - pretty much all of the Aria fans that I know of, but Mockingbird suggested that we need about 15 people to make the commission viable, so we're about half way there in terms of people who want in on the project.
I'm not sure how much each poster would cost - I assume it depends ultimately on which artist is chosen, how big the poster ends up being, whether it is in colour or not, but the Kiki poster that Mockingbird did a while ago cost 40 dollars or so... so I'm guessing that's the ballpark figure.
Mockingbird has also kindly offered to handle the logistics of the project if it goes forward, and I'm grateful because he clearly has the experience with speaking to artists and getting all the printing and shipping done (I appreciated his expert packaging of the posters to protect them in transit!).
If you are interested, feel free to PM me and reply to this post.
Thanks!
Eheheheheheee
What did you say? Oh. I guess maybe.
DEARS?
Speculah was so much fun with everyone. Nobody really knew what was going to happen, though a lot of people nailed certain aspects. I think it surprised the majority of people.
Urobuchi knew people would be onto his ploy, so he purposefully tried to conceal his involvement. Once it leaked, people started calling the show "Chidamari Sketch"
thanks guys
i haven't watched anime in years but for some reason i was hit with this really translucent flashback of summers in japan and afternoon suns and eating blue popsicles
Non Non Biyori or Silver Spoon.
Maybe Hanasaku No Iroha.
Watch alllllllllll of it.
Then hug the dvd cases because its so awesome.
Well I did. that part is optional.

We get to see some of my dream team animated, or maybe even the best fight if it does up to the current 61st chapter and beyond. Though will the anime have to censor things like

Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket 4
These last two episodes have been really good.
This show has been doing a great job of developing a group of reasonable adults who happen to be on opposite sides of a conflict about to boil over. Everyone's being used, and nobody's really fighting for anything they believe in. They fight because they have to, or because they've been fighting so long that it's too late to turn back. It's a brutally unromantic view of war. Even the action in this episode (a surprisingly bloody gunfight) seemed pretty unheroic.
Al doesn't know anything, and it's easy to hate him because he's a dumb kid, but it seems like he might actually learn something soon, so I'm happy. I'm really looking forward to next time.
I like how the Federation seem like a bunch of bureaucratic jerks in this episode.

I know just enough compsci to know that this is assembly code. Seems improbable to be using that to hack, but what do I know.

Kid may be dumb, but he's got taste. Zakus are a way cooler design than Fed suits.

Wagnaria!! 8
Actually, the crew of Wagnaria seems impossibly small. Only 2 cooks? What do they do when one of them has a day off? I would think they would need at least one more.
Hot spring episode, yay!
Lol, subverting expectations. Yamada is best.
On a side note, I really love how Soma's sparkles are black.
How sweet, Inami can recognize Sota with her fist.
...maybe I shouldn't get excited for fanservice.

I had the exact same reaction. People wouldn't stop going on about:
"oh man, the third episode"
"the third episode is where everything changes"
"I thought it would be all normal, but then the third episode came."
So I checked it out, and
I was confused at first. Halfway through the episode there's the nice heartwarming scene. What's so dark about tha-
*chomp*
OHHHHHHHHHH.
It wasn't a big "HOLY SHIT" moment. But it is still pretty shocking.

In all honesty, I wasn't expecting the villain of this show to be female Corvo.
And just to show that Rei totally isn't like Madoka Magica's Homura Akemi,
Let's give her some guns to use as weapons as she scales a building? CUZ YOU KNOW, HOMURA DOESN'T USE GUNS! She definitely doesn't stick a Gun in her ass, that's for sure (seriously what the hell at that scene)!
Whatever. At least now there's an actual villain and Rei's back story is at least different than Homura's. Though it does strike some similarities to another magical girl show I watched, but I'll look over it this time. Because now I can look forward to an awesome final battle sequence once the truth is out. I hope, this show hasn't exactly been doing great with it's so-called "fight" scenes, so I'll keep my expectations set.
But other than that, this episode was pretty heart-warming at times, I have to admit.

Not everyone can afford a subscription to both CR and Funi, i guess?

It can get pretty hot here in the summer, at least in the southern part.
Funi shows show up on Hulu a week later, at least.

Started watching this show a while back, its pretty great. Whos that server with the blue hair and glasses though? Usually there for a few seconds per episode.
That's Maya, she tries to avoid everyone, because she want to be normal. Very hard.

It's almost worth paying for Funi just so you don't have to deal with the commercials on Hulu, lol.

What I find funny about stuff like this is that much of the discussion surrounding anime-to-Hollywood properties focused on e.g. Akira and Evangelion but the movies that actually end up getting made is stuff like Kite and, more tangentitally, The Edge of Tomorrow.
