That's the most disappointing thing! She's been in a suit for what, 10 minutes of screentime total?
I'm contractually obligated to like Saber.
I have a feeling Saber will rise quickly in peoples ranks once somebody who knows what the fuck they're doing is able to control her. She has been holding back. Not to mention
she's injured by a magic wound
THIS IS FALSE AND SHIT.
Don't worry. They'll show some Kanna love.

Rider > Archer > Lancer > Saber > Beserker > Caster > Assassin
Assassin was just terribad. No ifs, ands, or buts.
Beserker is pretty low because we still haven't such much from him.
I think that contributed to my dislike. So powerful she had to be depowered immediately to not break the story meanwhile Rider is amazingly powerful yet is off being a bro with Waver and just wants to play some video games, maybe conquer the world when he's free. Also the more Saber screentime means less screentime for Rider unless they share a scene and only then it is acceptable.
I don't think there's anyone who's Greek in F/Z.
Macedonia was a part of Greece, is it not?
They only pissed me off in the final arc. I found them annoying throughout the series and think it would be better served if they didn't exist or maybe if there was only one of them.
Rider has had his crowning moment of awesome. Caster is done and I can see Lancer on his way out. That leaves Archer, Berserker, and Saber who haven't had a chance to really let loose. Saber will have her moment I'm sure. F/Z Identity spoiler:
I know who Berserker is though and he will almost definitely top her in awesome
Macedonia was a part of Greece, is it not?
It was in Iskandar's day, yeah.

For some reason they just never bothered me. Have you read the first three chapters of the AO mango that have been released or are you watching the animu with a blank state?
I haven't watched much more of E7 past what I saw yesterday so I cant comment on the kids yet.
Macedonia was a part of Greece, is it not?
It is not. Two different countries. It USED to be though.
I always liked Saber a lot. that's not gonna change. she's cute as hell and she is pretty badass when she really fights seriously. she will always be near the top of my list, but right now I put Rider and Archer above her for being BOSS.
Macedonia was a part of Greece, is it not?
But did people at the time identify themselves as "greeks" or as people of their own city-states?
Fuck this for making me want to watch Un-Go. I just have to keep reminding myself that it's a detective show that has a shota in a panda hoodie.
Yea I have. I'm not going into a war unprepared.
Sigh. It really feels like Darker than Black Season 2 all over again. I imagine they'll tie some of the stuff into the original series however I still wish this was an entire new franchise if they're going to do this. I wish they had done a prequel if anything. Seeing early stages of lifting and lift combat would be a lot of fun.
I will say this though, it's still very early on and they could really expand the scope. The problem is that I expected the same out of Star Driver and that crashed and burned.
If you go down that route then people who everybody else view as Greek such as the Spartans and Athenians then wouldn't be Greek.
The ED is the best part, you aren't missing much.
ugh, i'll be dropping this if it's only 12 eps
you're making it sound better than it probably is

Did you smash your roommate's head in for dissing Saber?
Who else will give a humorous, brief full review?!
That's really, really impressive. Props to the guy who made it.
What are your thoughts on the OP/ED and the sound track in general?
The OP visuals are great, I'm not a big fan of the song though.... the ED is pure class.

Nah he was just tired one day and passed out and put his head through the wall.
I've been exhausted enough to do that actually, but I am too small so I would just dent the wall.
It sounds leagues better than the one used for AO. I'm kinda shocked how bad it sounds in the PV.
Fixed.
Oh and there's also a robot AI loli, and the show ends with a crazy mid-air action battle between two characters, animated by both Yoshimichi Kameda and Yutaka Nakamura.
Well, music is often more a matter of personal taste... I haven't heard the AO music yet, though.

Asks questions so Ezalc doesn't have to
Nyaruko-san: 01
Yep, couldn't have put it any better. Basically if there's any show I immediately thought of while watching this it was Excel Saga. The main girl is uber cute, but a touch overbearing at times. Plus, just from one episode I know exactly where the show is going.
Boy constantly rejects advances of uber cute girl who so totally wants him in the worst way.
Girl eventually leaves because
- She no longer feels wanted
- She has to for some reason
- Her mission is complete
Boy suddenly misses her and wants her back
Girl returns, and boy goes back to hating her.
The End

only a few more days until oldtaminA rises from the ashes!
stop making me want to watch this!

The song they use in the PV is the same song used as the OP.

Looks like there was a reason for those two shows to exist after all! Seriously, that's amazing, especially the work done on that awesome bit of animation in the middle.
I dunno, that doesn't sound very good, but then, neither did the original...

I do like Saber; though, it is more because of my affection for Arthurian legends than anything she has done in particular in the series so far.
Rider is just a BOSS and I love (to hate) Archer because he's such a pompous ass.. but they are both more interesting characters than Saber.

Don't do this to me, man. This is a recent BONES show we're talking about here, your Jedi mind tricks don't work on me.
wow this was really well done
I didn't say it was good. It's just very unique.
I watched all of it, don't regret it one bit.
Also, the newer E7AO trailer has actual BGM music, which is not bad at all: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TE5JkZgSSm4
Eureka Seven OPs are pretty good. Then again I'm partial to FLOW and J-Pop in general. The only one that raised my eyebrows is the 4th OP but that's because it's a somewhat butchered 'Amazing Grace'.
The problem I have with this OP is how bad the lead singer's voice is. It's so bland and he tries much harder than what he's actually capable of.

Does that make everything that has premiered thus far simulcasted in some form?
The direction and animation of the first OP was good, I just didn't like the music.
Guys, keep in mind this is the guy who doesn't like Cowboy Bebop because he thinks the first episode sucks.

He's never going to live that down.
We'll see. In the first Heroman PV:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCOeG45YyPc
They had that song and it never played throughout the series. I was waiting forever for it to play but it never did.
Man, what a scam Heroman was. That PV actually had a lot of really nice looking animation too.
