Wonder if Sentai is gonna announce licenses for these anime before the first episode even airs again or if Funimation will finally get something, seemed like last season, apart from the niconico deal, they only got DxD after weeks later.
I wanted to avoid ongoing shows.
So instead of placed the image of AKB0048 behind Lord Watanabe.

This is the FIRST season in a while; that hasn't had shows worth watching.

Even for this show the finale was pretty turdy. Are the creators of this show cavemen? Are there people who really have such a poor understanding of how fire works? Death scenes were boring,
Save me Spring.

too many people lived, reveal wasn't handled with any sense of emotion, and the epilogue was both confusing and aimless. Was the main character a murderer? Why would this be introduced it the show has no intention of explaining the why of Reiko's death even though it's supposed to be the catalyst for the entire series?

So how's the Lupin thread coming along?

That wasnt Sakakibara that killed her on the river, if I recall he only arrived in town once her funeral had taken place.

I WILL BE WATCHING APOLLON! THE THIRD COMING IS UPON US. HE HAS RISEN!
Especially when more than one person is editing it!
I had a feeling it wasn't, but I still want more details of the event. It seems like a pretty important piece of the puzzle.

I hope the Ano Natsu bros know to carry on the speculation here. I'm still confused by this connection to
at the end.

Oh lawdy.
All in all this was fun in a trashy B-horror way but its definitely not a good show.
Now that I've gotten the stink of last season off me I can let Watanabe cleanse me with his golden showers of brilliance.

Oh lawdy.
So I was spoiled on who the extra was early on but didn't know how they would explain it. Did I miss something earlier in the show when they talked about the aunt being his teacher? This felt like they kept the audience completely in the dark just to have a "shocking" reveal at the end. Its a cheap way to do things, I felt. The deaths in this episode were particularly lulzy as were the complete disregard for physics and logic. And the fact that Mei knew for so long and didn't tell anyone or do anything makes her a huge asshole in my eyes. Could have saved everyone a lot of heartache and misery. They also never explained why the curse started in the first place. Why the hell did one class refusing to accept the death of a classmate decades ago cause a huge shitstorm?

I can only speak to when I started watching currently airing anime, but every season for the past year has had quality shows worth watching, though some have had fewer than others. Certainly this season looks unusually strong, though I hope people aren't expecting another Cowboy Bebop out of Sakamichi no Apollon.
I have a few actually. I wasn't expecting the pressure to pile up like it did, haha. Only two or three, I believe.
FSN, Fat Zero, dry info-dumping with insufferable characters. Fat Zero's a lot better than FSN in that regard, but it still didn't grab me, honestly.

Don't worry. "Miri" fixed it. All is right with the world now.
Ano Natsu 12 (END)
So my theory was pretty much right? Right?
In any case, I have to say I still prefer Please Teacher to Ano Natsu but Ano Natsu wrapped things up in a very positive, sentimental way.

Kaito goes on and makes the mass effect, retrieves Ichika and they finish that movie. On a serious note, that could not have been Kazami (Please Teacher) that left the message? No way.
I can't pass judgement here because it seems like a gif with a lot of missing frames.

Which one? I apparently wasn't paying attention to that.
Or to be more honest I've only READ about Onegai Sensei, never actually seen it.

I've heard that Train Hero's been cancelled, actually.

Excellent!
duckroll is the tyrant this world needs!
Thomas deserves to share a lil' line or two...
or take Train Hero's potentially empty space!
All of the frames are there, I just slowed it down by about 3x to show what was happening. Should have specified that.
This is heart breaking. All of my train hopes and dreams are getting piled on Thomas the Tank Engine I guess.
I think there would have been more of an emotional impact with the whole
Your Aunt is the teacher is the dead person! thing if we hadn't in the previous episode watched her get smacked upside the head with a broom and left for dead by her nephew-pupil in the previous episode.
she probably thought she knew exactly where Mikami's unconcious body was, which would make her really easy to kill. Although in that scenario I'm not sure what good killing Mikami would have done. Assuming everyone still remembered the calamity was a problem, they wouldn't know a person they couldn't remember had died, so the crazy bloodlust would have still continued for a while.
Honestly I'd be fine with Another being the Final Destination of anime. Just release another sequel every few years, full of silly unpredictable deaths as the class tries to figure out how to stop the calamity, different twist ending each time... It wouldn't be high art, but it could at least be entertaining.
Ah just checking, I saw it missing the train show as well so I figured it might have been more. Would have been hard to hype Shirokuma without an entry!
Same here, but apparently
the memory voice was Kikuko Inoue's, and she played the teacher from the Onegai series.

Woo, new topic, new season.
Can't wait to watch a bunch of shows and drop half of them, while I keep amassing a backlog of older shows. Excitement!.

The Lake scene with the memory and voice was all from Onegai Sensei. The alien from that show crashed her ship in a Lake like that and when she left the planet everyone's memories were wiped. I don't think there is any doubt it was her voice. And Remon is probably Ichigo, a character from Onegai Sensei. Or else they just created a new character that knows aliens and has the same appearance, personality, and voice as Ichigo.

Ah. That is interesting. I guess it could either be a direct connection or just kind of a fun "in joke" of sorts. ^^;
