Tragic victim of fan death
I can make this thread real because it still exists within the hearts of ALL of us!

BEHOLD MY PEERLESS ARMY!

Their posts have been banished to community, and their avatars have been offered to NeoGAF as Heroic Spirits. Yet these legendary posters remain loyal to me! My bond with them is my greatest treasure, my path of modship!

What are you talking about? Upotte!! is the biggest production we could hope for out of anime this season!
Nothing's gonna top Nazo no Kanojo X this season. I just don't see how they would do it.

Do not underestimate the power of Watanabe and male bonding.

Only you, duckroll. :3


If there was any yuri in it in the first place, it might just have.

It's like everyone has forgotten about Nyaruko. :(

We are...I said it out of anger, I'm sorry :(

Still don't like Medaka though!

That's ok then,
since I don't like her either.

I am a little disappointed in Uchuu Kyoudai / Space Bros ep 1 - I guess I was expecting PlanetEs, and this was.. not that. Hopefully it picks up, but:

-
His mom applied to the space program for him and he was accepted? WHAT?
-
The main character seems dumb. And annoying. But he was a successful car designer. Hopefully this starts to gel soon and we see more of the latter and less of the former.
- Animation budget seems good, but artistically, I don't know.. plus that's just episode 1 - hope it gets better or at least doesn't get worse.

ooh ooh, is it already time to start nerding it up in here by applying silly Type-Moon power level rules and thinly veiled RPG stat systems to AnimeGAF posters as if we were all Gamefaqs posters taking part in some Holy Grail War?

In that case I'm the Legendary hero Jmania and my Noble Phantasm is--

*is shot with a machine gun*

Fate/Zero 6

I know Kiritsugu's methods were hinted at but I didn't think I'd see anythng like that.
God damn. Archer's pretty cool too. That look on his face in the OP almost makes me want a clean image of that for a wallpaper.

You insulted FNC-chan's skeleton stock, didn't you?

Just like school days I'll never fall to you and your Fate army Duckroll. There is nothing you can do to defeat my will ahahahahaha!
 
Fate Zero 10

Loli Tsundere. D:

I liked the change in pace and the loli, but overall eps was kinda bland imo.


Seriously Rin's dad, the knife guy, and the gun guy all come from the same character generator.


And isn't this anime/novel suppose to be in the ... 80's?

Eureka Seven 03
Apparently
an organization called Gekkostate
is responsible for that display of craziness earlier. One of their ships is docked at the local port.
Eureka and Renton
go outside to "read the waves".
Whatever that means.
Eureka says he acts like
one of her kids.
WHAT?
Naturally Renton freaks out because he's an idiot.
Later, Renton
climbs aboard the Nirvash Eureka is piloting because he's the mechanic who installed the amita drive into the mech and he needs to keep it under control. He tells Gramps that he wants to grow up to becomes a mechanic like him.
The Gekkostate appears to be a large ship with allies to Eureka. The Nirvash attacks a guard ship fleet to allow the Gekkostate to escape the airport. Eureka guides the Nirvash into the Gekkostate, where they meet the crew.
Renton discovers that
Eureka has three kids
and freaks out again.
Looks like the show is starting to ramp up now.

Up until now, I thought you were a bro, Ultimadrago. :( Medaka is many things, but ugly is not one of them. :(

Medaka is cute in her own way. she's a more likeable Haruhi.

No, I've seen at least one other person post in this thread who also likes exposition dumps.

To be fair there are some good scenes in it. It's just that it's fifty minutes long and the manner in which they dump info is too often just people talking.

I see nothing wrong with exposition dumps. It's just repeated and unnecessary ones like the Sexposition in GOT that pisses me off.

Expecting a story to be something it is not attempting to be is a sure recipe for disappointment.

-

Yes, you can send your resume to JAXA/NASA and they'll consider it if they have openings. Mutta's mom sent it under his name, and he has a respectable career history, so it's not a surprise that he was accepted into the selection process.

-
The main character seems dumb. And annoying. But he was a successful car designer. Hopefully this starts to gel soon and we see more of the latter and less of the former.

I don't see Mutta as dumb, just quirky (as we all are to one extent or another), and initially listless due to his midlife crisis. He's charming and sympathetic, though I can see why certain people might not find him so.

- Animation budget seems good, but artistically, I don't know.. plus that's just episode 1 - hope it gets better or at least doesn't get worse.

The budget isn't especially high, but it's sufficient so far. I actually like the anime character designs a bit better than the manga's.

I've never had the desire to lick saliva off of a girl's finger. Tasting saliva is a byproduct of kissing, but looking at it like it's some kind of magical nectar is an entirely different issue.

Have you watched Koe de Oshigoto? For some reason this post reminded me of it.

Funny how a dozen or so glowing impressions on Fate/Zero season 2 has gotten so many people to start the show from scratch.

If someone created an anime recommendation thread and strategically planned it so 10-15 people would recommend School Days, a lot of innocent people would get hurt/trolled.

It's somewhere in the backlog. The premise both entices and frightens me.

lol that reminds me of the last girl I dated who had braces. Always had that metally taste :/

It's the price of not getting your tongue bitten off by a girl's horribly malformed, protruding teeth when trying to kiss.

It wasn't even the season 2 impressions for me. There was a lot of genuine excitement over the first half that I kept seeing that made me curious.

This plan is already sort of in place. at least it was until Gaf dialed it back a bit.

I thought we already did that...

now then here there ep6

hmm...not bad, did a good job nailing the bleak situation these kids are in and handle the struggle
rape scene impressively well (for anime) even if the dude was a top rank solider it was handled in a way that didn’t come off super contrived ,like I would expect from anime/manga almost raped scene.

Don’t why the girl decide to leave the
solider uniform, helmet, knife behind and go running in the desert in her nightgown? ...she did just get raped you would think she would try not be a rape magnet

She was probably mentally traumatized by that particular incident and thought of nothing but getting the fuck away from there as fast as possible.
