Sub, and I have zero interest in ever revisiting this show again.

not enough money to animate that i suppose.
I find it great that she had an escape route planned .. but it's not surprising considering how intelligent and competent she is.. ( she is a GALAXY ELITE student ) after all ..
good idea. fwiw the dubs equally fucking awful sans a few laughable lines
Angel Beats Stairway to Heaven
This was an "unaired episode" which I assume was just an OAV bonus for the home release. It was surprisingly decent as it embraced the overtop nature of the show shamelessly without drifting towards anything serious so good fun was to be had.. I'm glad it didn't address any of the actual plot in the show as that would've diminished it.

Why so trolling.
Decent episode. Lots of talking but at least it was important talking and not really rules talking.

It's curious that they would bring up the fact that Kirei apparently had issues with his father. For a mysterious man like Kirei, any piece of info that the show drops about the inner workings of his mind should be fairly significant, so because there's obviously never going to be any resolution to the issue, I can only assume that it was mentioned solely to underscore how duplicitous Kirei is.
After episodes of teasing, we finally have the match made in hell between Gil and Kirei. Tokiomi wasn't particularly likeable, but his death is tragic if only for Rin, who not only lost a father that she innocently admired but is now legally Kirei's ward. Being adopted by the person who killed your father and will probably abuse the fuck out of you for his own sadistic enjoyment? Sakura might have it better at this point. If Kariya lives long enough to learn all of this, he will go ballistic. It's just a shitty situation all around for everyone.

I prefer TGWLTT more than SW too. I just didn't like SW as much, not sure why. Maybe it was the suspension of disbelief from the internet/OZ stuff, I dunno.
I've heard of you guys comparing SW to Hosoda's past Digimon movie due to its similar themes. Should I watch it even though I know little about the Digimon universe?
Didn't you also recommend E7 even though you didn't particularly like it as much as others too?
Different voices fosters good discussion. You should stay, unless you don't like to be here yourself.
Why are you putting yourself through the pains of Mars of Destruction and Eiken?
No. My interest was piqued by one of wonzo's gifs and I watched it dubbed.
Curiosity killed my cat.
Really? My only gripe so far is that there hasn't been enough animated basket plays. I haven't watched episode 4 though. Everything else is good though, I really like Kuroko's Basketball.

Watch Digimon Adventure: Bokura no War Game. Better movie.

stuff looks 'alright' for a sports show. Stuff needs more frames of animation. That ball needs more frames of animation.

What makes you think this is going to end in 9 episodes?

If you are grinding in any DQ game after DQIV you are doing it wrong.
Not this time. Brocure swear.

Really? Only animation issue I have is the CG net? Otherwise, the ball stuff seems at least above average for the other sports anime as of late, and the graphics do look great for the action that matters for episode 4
passing effects and the boost speed up effect for Kise

"Ahhhhhhhh"
Bwahahaha.
The new characters introduced to the mix are fun. And... Wait, what?
Things are getting increasingly bizarre... And interesting.

They sure are suggesting that we should start creating relationship systems based on drool exchange, huh?

Brocure swear is sacred... don't invoke it willynilly!
Dude, please. Digimon's awesome.
Or at least it was back then. The last season I watched was Tamers.
You really don't want to know what happens when you break your Brocure oath.

I should not have watched it again recently. Totally ruined my nostalgic memories...
but there's nothing painful about watching Mars of Destruction

I read somewhere it was confirmed for 26 episodes. hopefully it was wrong though as I don't want it to ever end
That's... pretty much the opposite of being a weeaboo say I'd say you're in the clear.
I read them with the English dub actors in mind as well.

Digimon Savers was pretty good. Had a good premise, pretty hot-blooded and everyone wasn't useless for once!
Are you talking about the US version that's 3 movies cut together? >_>

Black Lagoon: The Second Barrage 7 (Ep. 19)
1 year anniversary since getting kidnapped! Get the wine!
So, this comes off as a chemistry building episode. Revy and Rock travel to Japan on business with Balalaika. The negotiations go off with a "bang" in success and Revy and Rock retreat from the meeting area.
Their taxi drives by a traditional festival and she feels like it would be fun, so they stop by. Here is where a bit of relationship bonds thicken between Revy and Rock as she asks him about his family and the suggestion of dropping by to greet them. All the while, reminiscing of her lack (or non-ideal life) of a family. Rock states that he is fine just considering the crew as family.
I'll take this line to say, Revy's Engrish cursing and one-liners are cute as a button.
Haha! So much Engrish in this episode. Delicious!
Then Revy has a fun scene showing some kids her shooting skills while Rock visits home
This Revy-Rock episode wasn't bad. The important detail is that it came around at all! Ever since the "delivery" episode we haven't had time to see these characters grow their bond with each other on a personal level (at least not with as much time invested).
This showed that Rock has learned to appreciate the Lagoon crew on some under-detailed level. While Revy, even with her lack of a blood family, understands the importance of the concept while she constantly pushes Rock to go visit his own.
It seems that she wants the best for him and believes that the best way to display that is to push him out the nest back to his own nest. However, this baby bird won't budge.
Festivus for the rest of us!

Even if it does end, there's always Chi's Sweet Home.
Who has time to watch them separately? Damn Japan and their free time!
Is it as bad as breaking a Pinkie Promise?

Behold your new overlord: Apo!
Nanba/Mutta sibling interaction was as fulfilling as I'd hoped. The scenes of them in their youth were so spot on. I need to stop fighting it and embrace the misty eyed wistfulness this show evokes from me.

Preview has me riled though. I figured the headbutting thing would come back to bite Mutta but not so soon.
