Seems to be a fandub, thankfully.
After what I've heard recently I had my worries.
What game involved eating tempura that looks like vomit?
I blame it on the 3DS graphics.

Nice pick up from viz, hope it does well to get a dub and blu ray release. Kuroyukihime and Haru are an awesome team, love their interactions already. He's actually a really cool main both in pig form, in whatever form shown at the end, and off the grid form. Hes like a combination of all the good points of Shion and Shu. Shes also awesome too, surprisingly. Taku too, hope hes also in the world. The graphics were compelling as was the world and plot.
Is it opposite day today?
 
Really slacking in the anime department, so going to maybe pick up a few old shows, starting with...

Mawaru Penguindrum Episode 1

I'm, uh... yeah. Not really sure what I watched but I... think I like it? Definitely need to watch a few more episodes to really gather an opinion on it. But what do you know, Shoma and I both hate the word "fate." Props.
and did Kanba really just kiss his sister what the hell is going on

It gets better. Stick with it and you'll be rewarded. Ikuhara~

I gave up updating mine. I don't remind myself on how much anime I have watch over the years.

I only use mine to remind myself what I've watched up to since I'm really bad at remembering this kind of stuff.

LA dubs only truly went down the shitter once they replaced practically everyone on the Simpsons.

It's okay, it's nowhere near the creepiest thing in that show.
Mai Ritoru Poni: Yuujou wa Mahou 04



DEAR GOD WHY? There are male ponies in this show. Why. This is like when K-On decided it’d be a good idea to introduce males in the cast. Utter blasphemy.

Anyway the episode focused on Applejack who I wasn’t a huge fan of going into this episode but is bumped up slightly on my waifu list and is tied with Fluttershy now (just to recap, Twilight > Rainbow > Fluttershy = Applejack > Rarity > Pinkie Pie)



The start of the episode was interesting. It shows a dynamic between ponies and another group of animals for the first time within the series. I wonder if the show will go back to that later on, those couple of cows who were up to noo good seem like they are startin trouble in the neigh-borhood.

Pinkie Pie would be a night-mare waifu. So utterly filly, the gal likes to party and party hard. In fact she’s done nothing in this series but party. I’m not saying there is anything wrong with a party, but she needs to lay off the powdered stuff, and I’m not talking about her love for sugar.



Speaking of partying too hard, basically sleep deprivation is dangerous nakama. Applejack has way too much pride but that stubbornness made for the amazing moment of the episode between Applejack and Rainbow Dash. It’s been quite some time since I took a physics course but I am positive that see-saw launch makes absolutely no sense. The only way it’s possible it is possible is if Applejack is a total fatty and has much, much greater mass than Rainbow Dash.



Anyway it’s time to stop shakin and it's time to get baking! Or not. That was one of the more disgusting concoctions I’ve seen in a show before. Applejack could have killed all of Ponyville with that thing. And Usagi! Poor bunnies, AJ is a big sleep deprived meanie :( All’s well that ends well. AJ should stop being a stubborn pony and swallow some of that pride sometimes. A pretty decent episode but hopefully I never see or hear of this Big McIntosh fella ever again.
WHY THE FUCK WOULD ANYONE RATE TWILIGHT FIRST

THIS IS A DISGRACE

I honestly can't tell if this is a Tokyo Underground reference or not. The show makes a lot of references to stuff, but this one might be too subtle to actually be one.

Yurumates Ha?

The moral of the story is alcohol solves everything!

This was better than the first OVA due to the higher animation quality...but not much better. I just noticed that the VA for Kumi also does Yoshinoya from HidaSketch! The Eva OP kinda owned.

whether you'll like it or not depends entirely upon how much you can stomach flash animation. i'd just check out the yurumate 3dei short first and see if that piques your interest.

THE MY BIG SISTER CAN'T BE THIS SHOUNENBRO SAGA: NIGHT ONE

Do you like One Piece? If you do then you will love Fairy Tail cause Oda keeps copying it

It may be true that Oda stole dragons from Fairy Tail, but within the first two episodes of FT it looks like Mashima stole Iceberg's design wholesale for Macau. Turnabout's fair play, I guess.

Bahaha! She may have potential "Shounen Spirit" levels through the roof! You have my condolences.

I already know that she does. She loves DBZ, Bleach, and Soul Eater, and she's expressed interest in watching Toriko. If she ends up liking Fairy Tail, she might just be more shounenbro than me.

o_O

At least the soundtrack is really good.

I'm not a huge fan of Celtic rock, but maybe it'll grow on me.

Put in Usagi Drop instead

That's not a half-bad suggestion, actually.

AYE!

screw that. expose your true colors. Show her some precure.

ibu7TFQ1dhz8BK.gif


Girl stuff.


Actually show her:

nitpicking_zps76865f9c.jpg


And post about how it went.

I would totally have my sister watch Oreimo with me if I didn't think it would irrevocably destroy our relationship, but even if I could, the anime subculture metahumor that comprises 90% of the show (and far exceeds the amount of incestuous content) would probably make it incomprehensible to her anyway.

I don't think that she would take kindly to Precure. She found a Sailor Moon manga sitting on a desk a while back and gave me the coldest look.

Its pretty awesome, Ive been on my second rewatch of it from the start. You dont have to worry about arcs that are ruined by terrible pacing issues of the source material like the anime that takes inspiration from Fairy Tail. Just be prepared for the magic circles and happy and a random sound effect "wow". Oh and Snow Fairy is one of the best OP songs.

dohohoho, I see what you did there.

Clearly, an Oreimo/Yosuga no Sora/Koi Kaze marathon is in order. Share your results!

I think you all have the mistaken impression that she's the Kirino in this relationship (minus the incest). I'm the one hiding my filthy anime habit from a family who doesn't understand--she thinks I only like Bleach and DBZ, just like her!

You know, it's really not that bad if you like One Piece. It's like OP-lite, but with magic. Just has some major asspulls in fights. It's still a fun series.

After two episodes of the anime, I feel like I'm going to like the comic relief more than the battles. Everything feels pretty low-budget. I read the manga through the conclusion of the
Gazille
arc a long while ago, and I think it's entirely possible that I'll prefer the anime to the manga if I actually get to watch a fair number of episodes.

Now you've jinxed it. Way to go guys.

We'll always remember you, Ultimabro.

Remember, Drago: if you're frightened about jinxing your run toward full membership, the one way to get out of junior member status early is to do something so outrageous that it gets you tagged. Give it your best shot!
 
It gets better. Stick with it and you'll be rewarded. Ikuhara~

It's hard to disappoint me since I have a wide variety of tastes and I thoroughly enjoyed the first episode, so if you say it gets better... I'm on board.

Shouma always has the best poses, expressions.
There weren't many characters introduced, but he certainly seemed to be the one with the most personality and pizazz.

Oh man. you just started a good one.

I'm prepared for the worst but judging from the praise it got and all of these replies, I should probably prepare for the best.

Isn't it electrifying?
That's one way to put it!

It's like getting slimed, but instead of green goop you get fabulousness all over you.
To be fair, I think we'd all rather the fabulousness over the slime. But both are exhilarating!

You guys got me excited to watch episode 2 so I hope you're all happy!
