Dragonball: 06, 07
Turns out Oolong had transportation. Figures. Gratuatous shower scene for Bulma, and an excuse to put Bulma into a bunnygirl outfit. And they say fanservice now is bad...
Oh, and Oolong's transportation is blown up. So much for that.
Round 2 of Goku vs Yamcha occurs in episode 6. Goku wins in one hit, pretty much. Yamcha's useless already.
Chi-Chi makes her debut in episode 7, along with her father the Ox King. Naturally, Goku pats her on the crotch, so that means they'll probably get married someday

Even then, better sales on physical.
Most DD platforms are anticompetitive by their nature. (more so than media already is)
that's the reason Yamcha is called Yamcha, really

No. If a Frenchmen writes, storyboards and directs a Hollywood movie it's still an American movie.
Spice and Wolf 2
That OP is growing on me fast. It's really beautiful.
The show isn't giving us much conflict, but I really like how Holo and Lawrence's relationship develops. Holo is proud, wise, and sometimes impulsive, but she also has her own vulnerabilities. Their conversation on the cart as they passed through town after leaving the church was incredibly revealing.
As a show, it's not much of a looker. I'm not really sure what else to say. The characters are great, so I want them to get to actually negotiating. The currency talk was enough of a tease to have me wanting more.

Holo's a lot of fun when she's messing with Lawrence. He's pretty serious most of the time, so it's good when she can undercut it.

So is the new Yamato movie a movie series/season like the first season? Or is it just a standard hour and a half film that is a sequel to the series?

No mention of the ED?
NO need, you either love the Ed or your LOVE the Ed
No other choice accepted.
Shengar: One Femmeworth is bad enough.
Fortunately, come episode 63 the show realizes it fucked up and pretends it never happened.
Warned you. It's not done either.

Yeah, I've gotten past it and now they're back to Yagami focused episodes like that whole arc never happened. It's bizarre, did it happen that way in the manga too? That string of episodes feels so out of place.
I dunno. I own the manga but haven't read through it all yet.
I just know that when I first saw that part I was mad as hell.
She's literally the only reason I'm still watching it.
To be honest I'm not sure why anyone would be interested in the show except for Eco and her fanservice. Without that, it's just LN tripe of the worst kind.
To bring up a point I haven't complained about in my impressions already, it was really offputting in the second episode when the central plot point of the entire series was literally skipped over as though it was unimportant. Eco being a dragon who takes human form is supposed to be this big unprecedented thing that makes the MC special (as evidenced by the main conflict of that episode, when she was kidnapped for experimentation purposes), yet nobody, not even the MC himself, ever actually questioned the fact that she was a human dragon or even registered any kind of surprise. Even his explanation of this new situation to all the other characters apparently happened offscreen. Either that or it was so brief that I literally missed it (I wouldn't be too surprised, the show isn't exactly engaging).

Mahouka 3
You know, I really don't have a problem with the incest trends in anime, although they all seem to be either for shock value or gimmicks, but for a show that's so self serious like Mahouka to have its only moment of levity be to require that its main character who has been built up as this genius when it comes to readying others and their actions to turn into a generic harem doofus who can't see that his sister is throwing herself at him really gets on my nerves. Its not that its incest, its that its just so generic in its execution.

No he does understand that her love for him is more than sisterly, or at least that's what I got. But the love he has for her is that of a brother and he simply ignores the advances.

One of the few characters to retain their voice from the drama CD, Kugyuu appears! Sena's exactly what I'd expect a Kugimiya character to be like. I think having multiple segments in one episode works best, since the jokes never drag out for too long. Though the one with the underwear was pushing it, but she pushed back.

I don't know man, if he really knows that she's madly in love with him, then that joke he makes in episode 2 about if they weren't related he would date her seems mad cruel.
Nice stuff!
Its fine. I bought it too! It came with character song cd. Couldnt pass it up.

I don't know if he knows she's madly in love with him, but he seems to have a grasp that she doesn't only see him as a brother. Still, the grand excuse is that he doesn't have feelings and he's pretending to be normal. It's shoddy writing. He's not as oblivious as 90% of harem protagonists and at the very least I appreciate that he's not a bumbling idiot, just very straightforward and serious. The manga hasn't gone too in depth into harem antics.

I consider myself a fan of Junichi Sato, and I have no real problems with Mari Okada, though I never saw her last take on the mecha genre. With a show like this being announced so late in the game, I have no idea what it's like. But, sampled the first episode. Real robots, and a lot of cast members, but only Akashi was really fleshed out so far. The mystery of the dark forest is kinda interesting, and I am curious about just who that girl at the end was. The depressing air of the show isn't something I'd normally be drawn to, but it looks like it has the potential to be interesting. And interesting is really all I'm looking for.

I really dont enjoy paying more than 10$ for digital games. Its a collector thing.

Yeah, Scrapped Princess is my of my all time favorite Bones show!
In regards to the light novel release schedule, that seems like a common marketing strategy for Japan, I suppose. It was like this for Golden Time as well. In the month that the final episode was scheduled to air, they released the last volume of the light novel. I think just 2 weeks or so before the last episode actually aired. I guess it's to attract people who were unwilling to wait for the anime to end as well at putting it out at the height of its popularity. Also, looking at the release gap between light novels, the last volume was obvious delayed to market it this way.
Just found out the New Waiting in the Summer is just a new OVA episode. Crushed because I was looking forward to a new series from the same team.

He's so straightforward and serious that he's boring. I feel like for a MC to be that self serious he need more exciting characters around him to play off of.They don't need to be ADHD, hanging from the walls, but every other character seems to be either a boring straight man, a boring bloom that is offended that the MC can even breathe on his own, or a girl who is sending subtly (I want you) vibes to the MC. So the sister insect comic relief seems like an out of place way to get some excitementinto the show.

Eh. I'm watching it because the OP'ness of him is hilariously ridiculous to the point nothing can beat him. Which is entertaining in its own.

A-RISE was this distant, unreachable enemy from the start of the first season, so having them approach μ's on their own terms was rather unexpected. Both sides are clearly working towards their own victory, but seeing how that graph line was moving upward, further upwards, it looks like Honoka may have made a strong impression after all, even if she had to go into enemy turf to do so. The outfits and the new song were both pretty nice. The nighttime setting, the dim blue lights, it gave it a very classy feel, for lack of a better word. Nice pick-me-up right after M3, too.

Interesting how they have met their rivals this early into the season especially with how distant they seemed in the first
. Getting two songs in a row was nice.
