Good backstory. First half was great but that second half. No action, combined with me in my cubicle, plus the uninteresting Chiyu, was just not a good combination. Though
Do you live near one of the following city/theater combinations?
Edmonton, AB (Metro Cinema)
New York, NY (Anthology Film Archives)
San Francisco, CA (4 Star Theatre)
Los Angeles, CA (Downtown Independent)
If so, you have the chance to go see a one night only, exclusive screening event for Dragon Age: Dawn of the Seeker on May 24. Plus, the first 100 people to show up at each screening will get a free t-shirt!
Envelope's not wrong. There is a lot of yuri. Maybe someone could try skipping the first 11 episodes to get to the, er, meat of the show and tell us how it works out for them.
Well people have said to expect a tone shift with the next episode. It seems inevitable. I would just rather not expect much and hopefully be happy if everything turns out okay.

Cologne is the only fairy that I don't want to strangle to death.
Too bad he's gone forever.
Heartcatch Precure 34
The reason I'm not including this with the other 2 is because this episode was actually good. A large chunk of the episode was spent fighting with *gasp* well-done and diverse choreography. Yeah, it did fall back on the typical boring technique spam for the finisher, but the fight between
Dark Precure and Moonlight
was quite intense and fast-paced.
Doesn't really make the villains' stupidity any less frustrating though. They should have attacked the Precure the second they got the dark gem.
My Little Bebop: 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25 Episode 22
Fortunately, this episode made up for the previous one by being one of the funniest in the show. Andy is clearly a rip off of Lad Russo from Baccano, but I can overlook that since the rest of the episode was good.
Cowboy Bebop is the perfect beginner anime. It is the show which taught many people that anime was more than just Pokemon and DBZ. There is a great "mainstream" appeal it. Many will say Bebop is the reason they got in to anime.
For me, this was the first anime I purchased. Coming off DBZ, this show was quite a change as I had never seen anything like it. Nostalgia is certainly biases my view of the series, still, I see my self easily able to revisit the show twenty years from now and not have it feel like a waste of time. I know other shows I like now definitely won't stand the test of time.
PVC-voice, those ninjas, the touhou reject character, Hazumi look alikes, the worst editing known to mankind, fox ears and tails, yup, this is Yami alright.
Giggly ninja girls, cyborg demons, Touhou reject fox mikos, Hazuki pwning shinsengumi and I don't know what the fuck is going on or where this is even going. I'm at a loss for anything substantial to say whatsoever because shit just happens in a disconnected stream of evens without any kind of logic or buildup or any semblance of direction and I just can't process any of it.
Well, among the older ones like Yami at least; I'd need to see the full list again. I guess I did watch through all of Blood-C after all, but I don't know if that counts.
I know it sounds sort of stupid, but if it's not something I think I'd be able to enjoy unironically, I'd rather not bother with it. Not to say I haven't gotten burned with some of my choices anyway though.
First people post reviews, then they make in-jokes you don't understand, and in a final desperate attempt to fit in, you decide to watch the shows everyone's freaking out over all the time.
Next thing you know you're reccing School Days and Angel Beats to every newcomer in AnimeGAF.
I agree it's a pretty bland eyecatch taken on its own, but I appreciated the way the soda and creampuff referenced the events that had just happened. And when they're finished after the commercial break, it tells you that upon your return, the jazz session will be over.

As for infamous anime for newcomers, Blood C was an anime experience I don't regret having at all. It was different for me and despite all the hoopla I had heard before, my expectations were still penetrated (without lube) in the end. I can't even rate it because I'm still at odds with how miserable/memorable it was.
