Why are we watching all this moe loli crap for manchildren when we could be spending our time on superior American television for mature adults?

Speak for yourself, I don't enjoy baka gaijin television that's made for the inferior members of society.

Jk im getting my thrones fix in a couple days
 
So bleach ends after 366 eps.


It's been a fun enough run, with pretty good animation teams for the most part for these 'endless running shounen shows'. Shame the source material is mediocre at best lol.

Clearly you two have been tainted by Nise.

You have a nakama right here


Telling people to avoid intentionally avoid Fate/Zero is hazardous, because they are missing out on RIDER.

They can get as much Rider as they want on pixiv or something, that way you don't even have to watch the show!

Really looking forward to Mysterious Girlfriend X.

Just started reading it today and damn it is good.

Evidently it drags and gets stale later on according to some other folks but as a 1-cour anime series it won't have this problem. Really looking forward to this one now.
 
Excited:
Koike Lupin
Apollon
Hyouka by GodAni
Saint Seiya Omegakoshi

Mild Anticipation
Tsuritama

Curious
Eureka Seven AO
Zetman
Mysterious Girl Friend X
Space Bros

Whatever
Fate/Zero 2

Watching because I hate myself
AKB0048

Aw, no more Medaka on the hate yourself list?
 

InfiniteNine

Rolling Girl
Let's see...

Fate/Zero 2: Revenge of the Saber
Medaka Box
Sakamicchi no Apollon
Lupin the Third

or I'll forget and play video games like last season. O: (And watch Fate/Zero)
 

RurouniZel

Asks questions so Ezalc doesn't have to
I mostly use it as a list to determine who is watching the least anime.

Watching anime and posting about it are two entirely different things. :p I watch a lot of anime but don't always have much to say about it.
Or what I would say has already been said several times by others.
 

BGBW

Maturity, bitches.
And just as Nichibros was getting into its stride it is taken from us. Well at least it ended on a strong note.
 
Really excited for this season. Still putting together a list of everything that I want to watch and check out.

I can say though that Naze no Kanojo X is definitely one of my most anticipated shows.

Will try my best to finish this season:
Urusei Yatsura (only 69 more episodes to go out of 106!)
Penguins

Will get to viewing 6-12 months from now if they don't suck ass:
Kids on the Slope
Lupin III: A Woman Named Fujiko Mine
St. Seiya Omega
I can't believe it's really called Space Bros.
Hyouka
Tsuritama

But currently airing shows should take priority over backlog, unless it's a bad season!

which reminds me, I need to watch more One Piece to make Cosmic happy. :)

Holy fucking shit I dont even-

If you like nearly 10 minutes of recycled footage per episode, sure.

It's NOT that much. The amount of flashbacks and reused footage is high, but around episode 14, the plot of the series really kicks in and its pretty good from there. Before that it sets up the mood of the hsow with various missions. Generally if you can make it about 7 episodes into it, it becomes rewarding. It was for me, anyway.

Why are we watching all this moe loli crap for manchildren when we could be spending our time on superior American television for mature adults?

I watch some brainless but fun stuff like Pawn Stars, Storage Wars, and Mythbusters. thats about the extent of actual TV broadcasts, other than the NFL. I actually have no idea what Tv series are airing and haven't kept up with such things since I used to watch the family sitcoms on TGIF in the 90's.

You're like me! (Minus the sports stuff.) Although I marathon a more recent series once every couple of months/a year.

Will watch:
Eureka Seven Ao
Fate/Zero 2
Kore wa Zombie desu ka? of the Dead

Uchuu Kyoudai (SPACE BROS)
Jormungand
Medaka Box
Accel World
Hyouka
Sankarea
Upotte!
Natsuiro Kiseki
Haiyore! Nyaruko-san

Will watch depending on Menace apperances:
Queens Blade: Rebellion

It seems like there is a lot more shows than normal this season, maybe it is just more that have caught my interest.

There are benefits to watching shows after they've finished: if an initially promising show goes sour, you can be warned; and if a show you initially dismissed turns out to be excellent, you can be made aware of it.

Since I have a lot of free time I'll most likely watch the first episode of each show (maybe even that AK47 show) and probably end up finishing two or three shows by the end of the season.

Man now that I think about it, the only show I finished from the Winter season is Ano Natsu.

So now that work has released it's ever so stressful grip on my soul for a few days, I'm gonna catch up on Ano Natsu, Rinne, and Chihayafuru. Hopefully I am not so ADD that I cannot accomplish this lol.

In truth I do watch a fair bit of anime on the side, and do not comment on everything that I watch. A lot of it is backlog shows in my collection and I'm not sure anyone would care enough about some of the shows. I did finish up CCS for example, but posting about episodes 50-70 is kind of overkill. then again, maybe it isn't.

The Light of El Cantare
Or maybe i'm the one being lied to. Cajunator's power level is pretty damn high.

Some would argue that it's too high.

The only thing on American television that I currently watch is Pawn Stars. I should probably feel worse about this than I do.

Will Apply Rule of 3

SPACE BROS
Zetman
Eureka Seven Ao
Hyouka
Tasogare Otome x Amnesia
Kuroko no Basuke

Since when is it a rule of three? I live by the rule of 1
and then wait around for impressions from people I have similar tastes to.

Not to mention that at least for me If I watch good show in a day or two it becomes great and decent show becomes good. You get youself more involved to characters and world of the show when you watch several episodes consecutively. Bad shows become even worse though when watching in one sitting...

I don't see Inu X Boku, Smile Precure, or Sailor Moon on that list, cajunator.

I am very disappoint.
