There's nothing more left to adapt and the author is dragging his feet. Unless they start doing anime original stories(and nobody should want that), it's done.
100pp is insanely easier to read GAF with.

If there hadn't been 2 other DAL girls in this period's final then Kurumi would've won. Definitely.
Not that I care about IntSaimoe, of course.
That's like saying the sun is "quite" hot or Haibane Renmei is "quite" good. And yes, all hail Tsunako etc.
Ah, I was not aware that it was based on an LN. I mean, I guess I was, but I guess that slipped my mind? On the one hand it's sort of obvious, since it has the trappings of one, on the other hand, I suppose I simply forgot that.
So it's kinda like HOTD in the sense that the author just kinda moved on to other stuff, then?
Date A Live S2-8
I don't give a shit about Miku's background. I don't fucking care how hard the idol industry is. Unless she has a background where a man raped her, she's a stuck up bitch that somebody needs to put down.
Oh and the action was lazy as fuck this episode. Meh.
More like a Game of Thrones situation, only not as popular.
Although quite frankly, I can't imagine the LN is even remotely interesting to read in the first place.

I prefer it because i'm a quick reader/skimmer, and always search for replies to myself by name (wish that feature would come back). Instead of having to click to a next page so frequently, it saves time have greater consolidation. Plus, I can skip over all of those people who save their posts for the top of a new, 50 ppp, page.
(Also i'm crazy)
I'm with you on this.

You can certainly argue that the art style is both unique and appealing, I wouldn't disagree, although I think the show looked far, far better when that style was coupled with good animation/detail e.g. like in episode 5.
You're getting pretty close to the final battle. And what a glorious final battle it is.
Thanks for taking the time to write that out. I'm glad you found a way to watch the series that made you happier, and while your criticisms weren't things that personally bothered me all that much, I can understand where you're coming from.
On an unrelated note, your impressions have made me interested in trying out VOTOMS at some point.
I can't imagine that Trigger/Imaishi is happy with how KLK turned out. When everything was firing on all cylinders like 4,5,6,17, and 18, the show really works and I imagine that's how Imaishi pictured the show to be. Everything else though...
Ah, thanks for the explanation - I don't even know who Sayla is, so it's time to Google!
As a Gundam fan, do you think this looks exciting? I'm guessing the story is the attraction here - or am I being too harsh on the production values?

it's 45 ish chapters long or something? Because I only got to chapter 50
I tried to be less critical in this, really, and more just voice things I did or did not like, rather than hoist them as signs of the show's quality or lack thereof.
And VOTOMS is great. Like if you're at all a fan of the sort of action movie feeling of segments of stuff like FMP or 00 Gundam or anything, VOTOMS is all of that but manlier.

Not that long, but it is very long. It's about two dozen more chapters in I think
Should this be in the Manga or JoJo Community thread

So after much thought that has lasted since I finished the iDOLM@STER anime, I have finally re-evaluated my stance on best girl, and sad to say it isn't Makoto anymore. Makoto is awesome but fact of the matter is that her singing, while good, does not compare to the girls listed below. And singing is what essentially iM@S is all about.
Chihaya Kisaragi
Amazing singer, actually best singer in all of the 12 (or 13) introduced in iM@S, not to mention her character song 'Yakusoku' is flat out amazing in both the TV version and full version.
Yukiho Hagiwara
I have a thing for soft/quiet voices. With Yukiho she doesn't give off the stereotypical high-pitched voice (though I am aware its very close) yet at the same time can sing upbeat/moody songs such as 'Little Match Girl'.
As such, I'm still in debate who will come out on top between Chihaya and Yukiho; deciding on Yukiho for now due to listening to her music more recently. So sorry to all Makato lovers on AnimeGAF though I'm confident that she will still be loved by many.

I agree. Im also quite pleased that you have such a high regard for my favorite series.
I recognize all of them. Is that terrible?
I browse mobilegaf a lot. When its really busy and Im working, i try to multiquote a whole page. At 50ppp its not too big to accomplish this. Especially since half the time mobilegaf forgets what I multiquoted and I get a blank reply screen.
The final battle is about 25 chapters long.
I'm glad I did, too! Just goes to show I should trust Cajun's advice more often, haha.
As for Clannad, if you mean the Mentally Challenged Ghost girl is Starfish girl, I'm afraid after that comes Mentally Challenged Genius Girl.
I haven't really found any girls in the show to be intelligent yet, and there's only 3 male characters, so I dunno. I'm only half way into it, though, so maybe things will change on me.
There's like at least three shows this could be.

That's like over 2 fucking years of content right there....
And yet it's still faster than whatever the fuck Naruto is doing
At least Araki not leave it to play IdolM@ster or DQ.
Now realise that you're actually going to go through that 2 year JoJo dripfeed with Jojolion. The most recent fight took over half a year to finish. Half...a...year...and it was only a minor villain.

This is the part that I'm dreading the absolute most when I catch up.
How do people feel about Jojo being monthly anyway?
Well the 40 page chapters are usually enough to get me excited for the story again and wanting more each month, though with the story style of Jojolion it can feel like the information is being dished out so slowly. It looks fantastic, just as good as the later SBR stuff. Araki is obviously putting serious work into the close ups and backgrounds. I don't think it would be possible for him to do it any quicker on his own.

Nah. I recognize 4, but have only seen 2 of the anime series (Date a Live is not one of them). Not sure if that's good...
I know them all and have seen their respective series.
Hehee. I try not to steer you wrong Corvy.
You haven't seen the best character yet.
I don't think it looks that great if you're talking about animation, but it's not coming out for another year, and probably won't be completed before 2016 or 2017, so it's hard for me to really care enough to be outraged or anything. I'm definitely interested in watching it. The story is good, and the director has done a lot of good not visually attractive stuff in recent years (like the MS Igloo OVAs), so looking kinda iffy isn't going to turn me away.
One Week Friends 4
That was some... convenient drama.
What're the odds?
Also, Hase's pretty pathetic.
I might've mentioned it when I watched this show the first time, but I like that there's a strong emphasis on the lighting and color choices in each scene to highlight the mood. I guess it makes everything kind of obvious, but it feels like the art directors are paying close attention to what's going on, instead of just going through the motions. That's nice to see.

She just happens to get bumped and drop her bag, and just happens to forget to pick up her diary, and when she comes home she just happens to pass out against the door and just happens to knock her diary reminder poster off the wall which just happens to fall somewhere she can't see it and put it back up for the next two days.

Plot convenience is nothing new though.

The entire premise of the show is a convenience.
The premise has been done as well.
theres only certain things you can do with the amnesia premise. Certain conveniences have to take place to further the plot and make certain events possible.

I didnt think there would be since for the characters involved it led and ended right at the start of hakuoki season 1 since it was a prequel.
There are hakuoki movies being made.
you did good this time, Corvo

The trailer for the Tales of zestria Tv anime isn't that bad , even if it does raise some question toward the world .
Too bad about the Iron knights Cgs , but it can't be helped since it's ufotable + tales of ( they did the same thing for xilia 2 opening )
Now i'm excited.

Are you sure that's for the TV Special? I don't think they've announced any details on that yet, only that Ufotable is making it. That video looks like it might be the prologue movie for the game itself...
Thanks for your answer Sir/Madam.
I have been out of with anime for a couple of months now. Any new anime like Ninja Scroll/Berserk/Basilisk/Darker than Black?
Also did Fate get a new season or am I dreaming?
