And still no simulcast announcement for Jormungand.

 

[Westlo]

I don't think you, even with your shounen blinders, would claim that Kumagawa is the best character in all of Japanese manga.

But the thing is... he is.

 

[Steroyd]

From what I'm gathering in these responses, this show causes people to lose their ability to construct sentences?

I tried my best, but to be honest the signs were there Samurai Girls Time Battle Paradox should have been taken as a sign of things to come.

 

[Firemind]

Now people are dissecting and hating on Maken-Ki? What did anime ever do to you? Strangled your dog? Friendzoned you? Married your little sister? Gave you swimming lessons? Gave you standards?

 

[neoanarch]

Then I do have to hate it for the writing. It's just so fucking derivative. I remember when GAINAX was cool. When they did (relatively) original stuff.

Please, it pains me even thinking about it. Heartbreak indeed.

Again I think your imagining a Gainax that never existed. Or at least taking it out on Medaka Box for something that has been happening for well over a decade.

 

[wonzo]

welcome back pdot!

Agreed although I'll defend Kore wa Zombie in that if it didn't forefully inject drama into the show midway, it'd be a decent zombie comedy.

Too many comedies are ruined by the need to tie up the plot using excessive drama at the tail end of the show. Kannagi is another victim...

yeah, i actually enjoyed it up until the forced drama.

Spoiler

fuckin floating whales!

Yeah it was watchable up until that point, I even went back to finish it because I had forgoten why I dropped it. D:

Welcome back from the otherside.
Ive been there. The food is awful.

 

[Envelope]

At least episode 11 made up for it

Spoiler

with ninja maids serenading flying whales to death on violins while the villain turns into a penguin.

 

[Firemind]

If SHAFT sent their staff over it would look terrible. SHAFT is terrible.

Oh yeah definitely. Bakemonogatari is the worst show.

 

[wonzo]

wasn't episode 12 the really terrible swimming pool fanservice episode?

 

[Risette]

Oh yeah definitely. Bakemonogatari is the worst show.

It's pretty bad.

 

[Envelope]

wasn't episode 12 the really terrible swimming pool fanservice episode?

You are indeed correct, that was episode 11. People should just watch episode 1, 7, and 11 of Zombie to get all the best moments.

 

[Lafiel]

Oh yeah definitely. Bakemonogatari is the worst show.

Bakemonogatari is the reason I almost gave up on anime.

 

[Envelope]

Cajunator should watch Zombie and Nyaruko, since they both have extraordinary ahoges.

 

[frostbyte]

NOOOOOoooooooooooo!

I just realised my one true ahoge, Naru Narusegawa from Love Hina, actually has two ahoge, which is apparently hair antennae, according to TVTropes.

My life is ruined, my heart is broken. Is life even worth living for anymore?

I'm trying to think of what troll ghost could be, but I'm just drawing blanks.

 

[frostbyte]

Who is this Nyaruko you speak of?

Spoiler

I don't think my heart can ever be healed... The trauma is too sudden, too soon ;_;

No, try your luck as zombie

Ah, I've been waiting to see if the manga has a happy end or not before I start it.

 

[Jintor]

Howl's Moving Castle

This has the greatest animation of corpulence.

 

[Defuser]

Still abit bothered it's animated by Silver link. It could have been a shaft show lol.

 

[frostbyte]

Hmm, that is one impressive ahoge.

Spoiler

Flash anime? eww. I guess I'll watch the XEBEC one whenever it airs for my new one true ahoge. still... ;_;

No, the one this season IS the XEBEC one. That's why I'm so excited about it, the PV for it is great as well!

i'm p. sure this is the xebec one!

 

[Envelope]

Well, this pretty much what I expected a second season of Zombie Deen to be.

Zombie still has the best fanservice ever:

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

lol

Bakemonogatari video game screens

 

[cajunator]

I love ahoges. all kinds.
The world needs more.
Much much more.

 

[Steroyd]

So today I learn the antenna hair that is my kryptonite has an official name.

This thread serves to educate.

 

[PdotMichael]

I think ahegao is better

 

[duckroll]

JapaconTV starts in about 3 hours. Can't wait for the OP. The second coming of DaiconIV!!!!

 

[/XX/]

I'm not so sure on that, really.

Spoiler

I prefer Zenigata solo too; he's expressed many times in the series that he is the only one who can capture Lupin and that he doesn't need help. He's assigned help in one of the Red Jacket episodes and he throws a tantrum about it. With that said, I'm not totally against the idea. If anyone, I'd prefer his sidekick to be Melon Cop, especially since this is a prequel series.

With that said, I think

Spoiler

Oscar

may well be a very interesting character! I don't know if you're aware... but there is a character of that same name in the Red Jacket series.

Spoiler

It's a male character whom Lupin seems to fall for, leading him to question his sexuality. This soon changes though, as Oscar is eventually revealed to be a woman in disguise! I wonder if that character and this new Oscar are related?

I prefer it that way with a little nuance too; Zenigata without a sidekick is cool, but along the ICPO squad of subordinates that many times accompany him I find it better. The creators don't delve on this characters that are presented to us as no more than faceless secondaries, however the way they fight for Zenigata and practically see him as a paternal figure, and the unity they show in the good or bad moments but always committed to their mission of justice is pretty sweet. On Lupin the Third: Castle of Cagliostro they are practically like a family, I find that a nice touch.

Then I do have to hate it for the writing. It's just so fucking derivative. I remember when GAINAX was cool. When they did (relatively) original stuff.

Please, it pains me even thinking about it. Heartbreak indeed.

For this argument, I think it is time to retaliate with things like He Is My Master! You can see Shōji Saeki's expertise on that.

 

[cajunator]

Don't hate on He is My Master. I bought the series. I even have a figurine from it.

 

[Firemind]

I think ahegao is better

Japan's greatest invention.

 

[Jintor]

Be glad they weren't talking about the other thing that kind of looks like ahoge.

/edit nevermind

The show sucks shit though. Even the alligator couldn't save it from being boring and derivative crap.

Nah. It wasn't that bad.
the MC was a hedonist. He was totally different from most MC's.
