AKB0048 Ep9

Now this was much better. I like the series when it's just kinda silly and having fun on its own. The backgrounds here were pretty nice, and we finally have another big concert. What's creepy here is that we finally witness the origin of the heart-eye disease, and it seems confirmed that AKB0048 are spreading some sort of deadly virus to young girls around the galaxy via their concerts. No wonder DES is pissed...

What if it isn't a symptom of disease so much as a sign of parasitic infection? Maybe graduation involves idols exploding into a glittery mess as a batch of mature kirara escape their host? Such a galaxy wide epidemic is a problem worthy off the DES' time.

[AKB 0048] - 8

Am I the only one who finds those space combat sequences terrible? There's no rhyme or reason to the battles themselves, I have no idea which side is winning and the editing is just awful.

Nope, but it's AKB0048.

This is something to be expected.

As the current Takamine was reminded by the other girl, though, only one can be in each spot at a time...she should focus on her dream, even if that meaks Kanata will have to wait more. I mean, I agree that it's too bad Kanata can't be on there too, but I'm sure she'll get there...

They're only AKB0048 characters, regardless of if they all make it or disintegrate from a DES death ray. I will feel the same...okay, the second one would be much more hilarious.

Arcana Famiglia starts airing this Sunday?
Isn't it time for a summer season thread?

And we only made it to the 300's on OT3.

It's time we work the citizens twice as hard.
Watch (and comment on) more anime or no dinner.

Zetman 13 -END-


Yeah, that was an alright ending,
despite the fact that it wasn't actually an ending.

I was a bit frustrated by the fact that they didn't bother to explain the
Hanako being a Player
asspull... As expected. I mean,
why didn't she know she was a player? How the hell did she have a family?
But whatever. I liked Kouga
going kind of batshit insane, because, well, he's a terrible character. At least that way he became a little interesting.

Maybe I'll read the manga one day.

Brain Powerd 1-10

Received my DVDs and started watching this first. I already owned (and watched) the first DVD of Brain Powerd, but decided to re-watch it anyways to refresh my memory, not that it helped since the story so far feels filled with things that don't make sense or are simply and plainly confusing as very little is explained, complete with characters that have reactions (or a lack of) that add more confusion to my brain (like, for example,
Yu kissing Hime
, twice, and when it happens she has a reaction that makes no sense to me).

The animation is shitty. There was this moment when one Grandchild is destroyed in episode 9 I think, and it is shown as falling down while flapping its legs and that flapping seems like it only has a couple frames of animation.

Another silly thing is the talking during battles. These pilots are always boasting about "I won't miss!" "You're not going anywhere" or shit like that, then they are all firing their weapons and all the shots miss. Or they are talking to each other, or the enemies, and they hear each other perfectly, even when the pilots are on newly born Brain Powerd.

But hey, at least the OP is as visually great as I remembered, with completely naked girls from start to end and the ED is aurally pleasing thanks to Kokia's awesome voice.

Smile Precure 02

The opening for the show is quite catchy too. The ending is utterly horrific but that seems to be a theme with Precure shows.

They told me it would look better after seeing AKB0048 dance sequences.

They were wrong.

What if it isn't a symptom of disease so much as a sign of parasitic infection? Maybe graduation involves idols exploding into a glittery mess as a batch of mature kirara escape their host? Such a galaxy wide epidemic is a problem worthy off the DES' time.

Mwuhuhaha. Needs pics!

elfen lied has always sounded like one of those really terrible gorefest shows that people put on a pedestal because it's all "deep and edgy".

I remember hating it, then liking it, then going back to hating it. It was a weird show, where I kept flipping between thinking it was a brilliant juxaposition of violence and innocence, and animu torture porn with the pretense of being more. Eventually I settled on the latter.

Saki Achiga-hen is better at being Saki than E7AO is at being Eureka 7.
You joke, but Saki has made me so hyped for the franchise that even I'm surprised at how much I care about moejong.

It's the Marvel Film Initiative of anime. Joss Whedon needs to direct the Saki movie. Mark Rufallo as Saki please.
