Now and then, here and there ep1

You don’t need a game plan when you’re so bad ass gravity ain’t got shit on you and you’re going around chopping solid brick chimneys with a bloody blank of wood.

Kids got shounen haato, the body of wolverine and can lip read from great distances, impressive set of powers.

-he has thing for dead soul less eyes or maybe all the girls have them in this anime

Nice orange sky shots I can see why jex likes this

You know I was expecting this to be a throw away show and potential backup if a bunch of other stuff didn't end up good, but I actually find this pretty compelling.

While the setting isn't really anything new, I do love the concept and potential of the Neuro-Linkers. I just wish that and how integrated it is into the world's culture was fleshed out more before jumping even further down the rabbit hole with the Burst-Linkers.

I'm also kind of surprised at how Arita being fat actually makes the tried and true archetype of his character feel somewhat fresh. There's literally nothing new about him; he's got the childhood friend, the self-esteem issues, the gloomy attitude. Yet being fat actually adds new implications and makes him more sympathetic, even when he's Iron Man.

It also has a pig playing tennis, so that's always a plus. Will definitely keep up with this.

Wouldn't her knees have to be further apart? Unless she really likes shopping for new shoes.

[Monogatari series]

So it looks like the Kizumonogatari movie won't make it for 2012 after all. I'm not exactly surprised.

Caster and his Master are two messed up dudes. Or maybe I should say Gen Urobuchi is.

Kiritsugu's plan... all I can say is

Though given the lack of confirmed bodies, there's no way I can believe they're actually dead.

I thought that some stuff streamed by Funimation/NicoNico, even though they started late still managed to get caught up fast and be just a few days after, like Mirai Nikki.

Enjoyed this ep for the wacky submarine tactics. I still can't shake the feeling this would be better edited into a movie rather than spacing this out for six episodes.

I still think the heads are too big too.

Also, I don't understand why
they made such a big deal about their true names being secret when apparently you can just tell the other servants who you are. Lancer made it sound like it was a rule.

Well, it isn't a hard and fast rule,
just that letting your true name and NP out just makes it easier for everyone else to beat you

I could be totally wrong, but I thought that
it was acceptable for a Servant to reveal their identity to another Servant, but was strategically disadvantageous because a Servant's true identity is a clue to the nature/power of their Noble Phantasm
.

edit: beaten by jman.

Knowing your name can apparently let your opponent know your abilities. If Saber had known Lancer's name she could have guessed what his spears did and the battle would have went completely differently.

The last video game adaptation I watched from them was kimikiss and that was hilariously bad although I have not watch milky holmes. Videogame adaptation isn't really their strong point.

Mahoraba was glorious.
They got that one right. Not a VG adaptation though.

Right, I was just confused because he made it sound like a rule rather than just smart strategy.

I suspect that duckroll and Hitokage wanted this to happen. The plan was to isolate quarantine us from the rest of the forum before dropping the nuke.

It was worth the wait. The CG was handled very well.

Archer and Berserker dogfight was awesome. Gonna miss Caster and its master crazy antics
