That blue eyed character is stuff of nightmares. Maybe it was the framerate that was out of whack but that body shift 0:11 was kind of freaky.

Wait a minute, the Oda Nobuna anime is comedy? I thought it was action but even on MAL they just list it as comedy, romance, and and historical.

We can cherry-pick all day. Time to get scientific, with no eras compromised!
A lot of neat animation in the episode, and those postcards are a first for the series (this was just a year after Dezaki had begun work on Ashita no Joe, so the influence had begun to spread).

Dezaki storyboarded on the Green Jacket series under a pen name. 13 is one of those episodes. The other three are 3, 7, and 17.

Huh. I did not know that, what was the pen-name? That would explain the postcards!
That's so interesting.
I'm not sure which, but it's either an action series with romcom elements, or a romcom with some action. I'm guessing it'll focus a bit more on the comedy, but it should have some good action.

I asked my Japanese speaking friend to transliterate this but he says he has no idea how to read it. Sorry

edit: okay he tried harder and said Kazuhiro Sai.

I thought that was the name as well. Seems to be what ANN thinks.
I try to avoid ANN if possible, even if it means having to wait for a moon interpreter to be online. Their database has too many screwups. The JP wiki I linked is solid, though.
Also it seems that his brother Satoshi worked on ep16. Interesting!

MAL's far worse, as is AnimeDB. That wiki looks good, thoughI thought the best credits came from Anipages for the longest time, too.
The problem with ANN is that it's hard to get screwups fixed due to how their site is coded. They actually have a relatively active amount of contributors, but it doesn't work like a wiki and takes forever for the site staff to get on the ball.
They finally split the two Osamus Kobayashi after a couple of years though, lol.

Well that saves me time from checking it out.
Kids on the Slope 10 - This was a really good episode after the last two episodes being rather middling. Now with all the romantic baggage tied up, the show has all the time in the world to focus on the real thing that matters - the brolust and music!
Tsuritama 10 - Really energetic episode this week. Loved how the cast got together in the episode really put a smile on my face. The end of the episode was though.

His/her's eyes are pretty terrifying. Not sure if I want to watch.
Huh, a comedy you say. Not sure what to make of that. Hilarious walking in on Nobuna and pretty much everyone else taking bath scenes already expected!
To borrow GAF's own Gintama topic title: Just do it!

Hanasaku Iroha 6
Now I remember why it was such a pain in the ass to drop this show: it's really a gorgeous show. Some of the shots are rife with depth. The lighting is methodical. The animation is very solid. The soundtrack is appropriately utilized and mixed. There's a familiar beauty to the world of Hanasaku Iroha when the sun rises over Kissuiso. My only issue is that the players have only captured a tiny bit of my interest. It doesn't leave me wanting more but I am curious as what happens next. This would have been the ideal show to watch on a weekly basis had I caught it when it was airing. Despite that, I have no intention to drop it again so far.

Huh. Maybe if this goes well they will handle non-Miyazaki Ghibli films in the future.
Chiaki Omigawa is in it and that makes it much better.
I want to know their aspirations as well. Their participation, by the hand of Kōji Takeuchi, on the two shorts for their contributions to both respective JAniCA's initiatives, PROJECT A & animemirai (アニメミライ
, seems like a good indication on how much they are investing on the future.Yep, I peruse that one or アニメ@wiki usually. Anime Information Survey Office (http://www.anime.marumegane.com/) too, as it is well organized for those not familiar enough with the language and has additional interesting information. Many of ANN's good contributors seem to use D2_STATION (http://www1.vecceed.ne.jp/~m-satomi/) anyway, so people can check that one directly as well to compare some of the screw-ups present on their 'Encyclopedia'.
well, at-least crunchyroll has the breast armour jiggle market covered

Such an enjoyable episode. The show just moves at a good pace which makes it so much fun to watch.
That ending though...

I really do hope Ayumi survived that explosion.

Sengoku Collection 11
Brutal Maiden was actually pretty enjoyable. I guess for me, of the 11 episodes thus far, four were actually enjoyable. Or maybe I enjoyed it because the casino plot is actually compelling and I couldn't predict the twists. Ending theme has definitely grown on me, cant help but sing along now.

A very decent episode. Pretty much your Oceans Eleven episode of Sengoku generals girls. Sarah did get on my nerves for a bit but Matsunaga did steal the show of being pretty fabulous. It's not as wtf as the other infamous episodes but it did have a decent story, the twists were pretty good and all in all a decent episode.
Oh you are such a glorious troll, Matsunaga Hisahide. Why don't you just troll Masumune already.

Just finished watching the 3 OVA's. Nothing actually gets resolved and they don't elude to any kind of continuation or, well, anything happening at all. Just more sex jokes throughout, though there were some good laughs to be had. I would've liked to see the story go somewhere, but then again, there really is no story in this anime anyway.
I'm fond of the character design in this series - especially the president. She looks super cute.
Now, back to Gintama!

It's BlingCon, as far as I'm aware. A-Kon got zilch this yearno good guests, and Scott Ramsoomair of VG Cats was just huddled up like a midget in the back of the artist's bazaar like the shit-head he is. Terrible sight, really.
Sounds about right.

Blah, more drama everywhere. It's slightly better as it focuses on characters I actually like, but still too much drama.

The bad:
-The OP change. I find it to be a case of "don't fix what ain't broke."
The good:
And the next thing you know, SHE SAID IT, and my face went like this and I was like, "AWWWWW SHHHIIIIIITTTT!!!"
Nichijou just got 100x more legit

When I saw that, my mind immediately said,
"Have a Snickers."

thanks to corporate sponsorship.
KyoAni just have too much money.
Yeah I always dug the first OP more than the second.
It's still really fun though.
Hyadain needs to do more animu OPs

Hm my mobile seems to be unable to play some gifs, guess Ill try to use them less.
Anyway, is tsuritama 11 or 12 episodes?
tsuritama 10
Natsuki and Yamada with plenty of screentime time made for a pretty nice episode overall, not my favorite one but certainly not the least good one. I always feel every emotion. For character interactions
The ending

enjoyed how Akira gave in to the friendship with Natsuki first then the rest. Innovative plan and nice change for Natsuki with his father, then with the others too.
Haru's monologue almost made me sad but Yuki just in time with Natsuki behind and blushing was really uplifting and inspiring. They did it so well, true friends.
