Can you find subs for me? That would be great.
L's grunts are a result of her Japanese VA not being able to pull off her heavy English accent.Can you find subs for me? That would be great.
How do people like Sankarea here? It's a bit of a silly show with the zombie angle and all, but I find the romance working well and the characters are engaging.
And the ED song is beautiful.
One Piece was good from the start. Envelope just has shit taste. I mean hating on fucking Luffy of all characters? wtf is wrong with him?48 episodes (at minimum) before a show supposedly becomes good? Wow...
Is this video meant to be taken seriously or not?
I honestly can't.

Nothing from Britain should ever be taken seriously.
Out army is full of nutjobs which is why they can kill despite using L. If things are getting desperate they'd probably throw her, pantsu and all, right into an enemies face.
Killed humanly.

Am I the only one who thinks the "No one can see Akarin~" jokes are incredibly unfunny and stupid?

I think one of the reasons I can freely enjoy even moderately terrible anime is because I accept the show as it is presented. I don't try to attach realistic expectations to it. I accept that the characters are "as is" in the story, even if in real life they would be absurd. In THAT story they are in, they make some sort of sense and have a purpose, even if it is pandering. This is why I can also accept really stupid characterizations that drive other people nuts.
Maybe you should just stop LOSING YOUR HEAD
HAHAHA

Ah...alrighty. Sorry, this is my fault for misunderstanding how the word "otaku" is being used.E7AO is certainly a series for dedicated anime fans, but it still feels fundamentally different from something traditionally described as made "for otaku" like Angel Beats, K-On, etc. It deserves credit for being story-driven with characters that (mostly) don't fit into the most basic anime archetypes, so I would argue that it's incorrect to write it off as falling into the same broad category as many series that don't attempt to do the things that E7AO attempts at all. It deserves to be held to a higher standard even if it does exhibit signs of being more commercial than its predecessor.
The joke is meant to be she has little presence, not that she is invisible. But one can't expect everyone to be experts of comedy.
Probably not gonna happen

does seem kind of pointless, aside from being the shows main in-joke.
Its a stupid idea really.
Ah...alrighty. Sorry, this is my fault for misunderstanding how the word "otaku" is being used.
When you guys say "otaku," you mean specifically "moe character/bishoujo character otaku" and not any other kind? (In other words, you're excluding people who, say, have a room full of Gundam models.)
I'm familiar with this usage lately but i keep getting tripped up by it.
I guess there's no way you'd like the Loguetown arc after all. Well, what are you gonna do.
I had a thought of proposing that you give me any show you'd like someone to watch and I'd watch it and write about it here (the same thing you already did basically), no matter how long it was, if you'd give OP another 10 episodes, but then I realized I'm not a regular poster in this thread and nobody cares about my opinion. Oh well.
This is the first time I've seen a head bump and boobs bounce off of each other like that.

One Piece sucks.
All throughout, the pacing was really bad; every arc but one was stretched out much further than it should have been, the one exception being Zoro's mini-arc. Unfortunately, bad pacing is to be expected in these long running Jump shonen shows, but that doesn't make it any better. At least shows like Heartcatch are episodic, meaning that an already poor arc doesn't get stretched out, making it even worse.
The characters were uniformly bad. Not a single villain had any motivation beyond "Hurrrr I am bad, I like killing and pillaging because that's what pirates do, except apparently that's not really what being a pirate is".
The main cast was worse. Luffy is one of my least favorite characters ever, he ruins every single scene he's in. What makes it even worse is the self awareness Oda tries to use whenever it happens. There will always be a few characters in the background to yell out "YOU'RE RUINING THE MOMENT" every time he ruins the moment. It's not funny at all. Nami was a poor character as well, money grubbing cardboard character doesn't make for a fun watch., and though Arlong Park did work up some decent sympathy for her, it didn't help make her any more likeable. Though to be fair, she could have a bit of a character change now, but since I won't be watching any more, I'm not about to find out.
Ussop... after his arc finished, he didn't really do much other than be loudmouthed and brash, mildly annoying, but nothing compared to the titan of irritation that was Luffy. Zoro is a bro, best character hands down. The brief appearance Mihawk made was good, and the sole saving grace of the otherwise abysmal Kreig arc.
Why did I dislike the Kreig arc so much? Firstly, the characters of the restaurant ship tried their best to be unlikeable. Regardless of whether someone is starving or not, it's stupid to offer a bloodthirsty murderer a free meal, knowing full well what the consequences will be. The flashback for Sanji was extra dumb, even for One Piece standards. A truly fearsome pirate, who's mastered the Grand Line enough to survive a year in there, decides to sacrifice his strongest asset for an annoying brat who's ship he attacked less than 5 minutes ago. Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. The second aspect was the ridiculous plot armor Luffy had. I already went through that, so I'm not going to list all the ridiculous stuff that he shrugs off, but I was constantly assured by various parties that One Piece has much better fluctuating power levels than most other shonens, but that really wasn't the case. Let's not even get started on how stupid the rubber ability is.
The first 3 episodes of the Arlong arc were some of my least favorite in the show. Then came the flashback episode for Nami, and cheap though it was, it was at least effective...
....or would have been, if Luffy didn't exist. He managed to completely ruin every potentially emotional moment in the arc. The middle of the Arlong arc was so frustrating to watch, since it could have been good, but the constantly forced "humor" that Oda seems so fond of cramming in the worst spots kept cropping up. Then of course, any hopes for a good ending were dashed the moment Luffy got stuck in the concrete. Luffy's big fight itself was pretty lacklustre. The usual plot armor, fluctuating power levels, andshonen haatoNakama haato power ups were everywhere.
Nevertheless, Arlong still managed to be the second best arc, behind the mini-one for Zoro.I say mini, but really, the only reason it was that much shorter than the rest was because it was paced properly.
It's really unfortunate to see a show/manga/world like One Piece with so much potential so completely ruined by just a few aspects. I'm not a fan of either the art or some of the fights/powers, but those aren't dealbreakers for me. Horrible characters and poor plots are, and One Piece was filled to the brim with those.
I guess there's no way you'd like the Loguetown arc after all. Well, what are you gonna do.

I think the worst anime movie I've seen is Tales of Earthsea (Don't really recall much about it so I'm just assuming from the fact it made no impression on me that it is the worst). I clearly need to see more movies.
I'm waiting for One Piece Kai!

And the ED song is beautiful.

btw, if anyone wants to do some anime movie watch swap bet thingamajigs, hit me up. I'll be making you watch shin-chan movie 2001.
Someone needs to watch The Laws of Eternity and report back to us.
