Everything is tsundere to me
Sengoku Collection is for a bet to see who can survive!
Blame Mad Pierrot for his smooth talking challenges!

Upotte is better than Sengoku Collection.

Which is why you should watch Upotte!!! It's bizarre, unnecessary anthropomorphism at its finest! D:<

Mayne, dawg. That first episode didn't sit well in my stomach.

If it gets violent, hit me up!
(Also, I might hit up an episode or two later on for lulz)

Dammit, I can't resist the charm of top-tier OT creators...
 
From first impressions mines looking like
Will watch:

Haiyoru! Nyaruko-san: 1

Shit, this is just a better Sengoku Collection. And I can't back out of Shitgoku Collection (can't give up that bet for ramen!). Now, it looks like I'm watching both. I've penetrated myself good this time.

Buying a fiddle stash gives this Nyaruko girl points

The short fights were just silly, but an opening episode can give you such things. Music was eh, transitions were bleh (as with many of these things). Character designs (sans mythical character, Nyaruko) are very boring.

But it's the first " stupid fun" show of the season, I've kinda liked due to some of the humor, so it'll stay for now.

Also, Nyaruko herself is pretty hip.
Nyaruko-san is all about Nyaruko. Fuck Mahiro. Hope he slips and rams his stupid fork through his eye, right into his brain. Nyaruko on the other hand is just awesome, and I now want my very own cute, bloodthirsty, perverted crawling chaos.

This must happen. And you must post it and link me to it.
It will happen... if we could ever get a damned show. ;____;

This is why I don't like BECK anymore! So unrealistic! D:

Hey, the next episode features combat~ Give it til after that episode to see if it's more your speed. I will not have people dismissing this show offhand JUST because they need to sell DVDs and figures...

It could use more German teacher. I bet she is proficient in cleaning a rifle barrel if you know what I mean.
Or Ms. Thompson, the elementary school teacher. I'd bet she'd look real nice in an aftermarket skeleton stock, if you know what I mean~

Nyaruko

What it goes full harem mode?

yeah... fuck
I believe there will be a harem, but not really. As far as I understand from skimming the internets,
the harem will consist of three girls, except one of the girls is actually male and the other is a lesbian and wants Nyaruko, not Mahiro.

Random thought: I always read Cwarrior's post in the voice of Dunban. I also think Dunban was real and posted on AnimeGaf, he would be Cwarrior.
For this reason, I will always be partial Cwarrior (unless he changes his avatar :mad: )
 
Naruto SD featuring Rock Lee 02

Not as great as Lee literally slapping Sakura, but close enough.
Pretty good episode. I kinda forgot that people even had crushes on Sakura, but that's no big deal. I like the mini skits the show does, this time talking about what kind of actor they like, and pretty much forcing Neji to crossdress for someone's amusement.
 
It's that time again! AnimeGAF decides! Should I next watch:

More Sailor Moon

or

Fate/Zero season 1

Fate/Zero! So worth it.

There once was a thread called AnimeGAF who was king of the OT. It had fame, power, and hnnnnnng beyond your wildest dreams. Before they moved it to Community, these were the final words it said: "My fortune is yours for the taking, but you'll have to find it first. I left everything I own in ONE PIECE."

Ever since, OTs from all over the world set sail for the Grand Line of Community, searching for One Piece, the treasure that would make their dreams come true!
and restore legitimacy to their community

YO, YAH YOOO YAH YOOOOOOOOOOOOO
DREAMIN'
DON'T GIVE IT UP JEXHIUS
DREAMIN'
DON'T GIVE IT UP CAJUN
DREAMIN'
DON'T GIVE IT UP DUCKROLL
DREAMIN'

DON'T GIVE IT GIVE IT UP GIVE IT UP GIVE IT UP GIVE IT UP GIVE IT UP GIVE IT UP NOOOOOO

THIS IS HOW THE STORY GOES WE FIND OUT
ABOUT A TREASURE IN THE GRAND LINE THERE'S NO DOUBT
THE PIRATE WHOSE EYE'S ON IT WILL SING
KING OF COMMUNITY, I'M GONNA BE KING

YAH-YO, YAH-YO YAH-YO, OH OH

ITS NAME IS ANIMEGAF, THAT'S COMMUNI T.
GONNA BE KING OF COMMUNITY
IT'S IN COMMUNITY, HOW DID IT HAPPEN?
YO HO HO THE THREAD GOT TOO INSULAR

YAH-YO YAHHH-YOOOOOOOO

HIS NAME'S JEXHIUS, HE'S LIKE A SAMURAI
AND AN H-N-N-G CAJUN'S NOT SHY
THE ANIMEGAF CREW COMIN' THROUGH DOIN' THEIR THING
KING OF COMMUNITY, IT'S GONNA BE KING

YAH-YO YAH-YO, YAH-YO OH-OHHHHHHHH

SET SAIL FOR ONE PIECE, IT'S THE NAME OF THE TREASURE IN THE COMMUNITY GRAND LIIIIIIINE

YAH-YO, YAH-YO SET SAIL FOR ONE PIECE

This would be so funny, if it didn't bring up some awful scars at the same time, fuck 4Kids. :mad:

I don't understand the junkies who watch everything.

I watch till I drop, fortunately (or unfortunately) I started playing Disgaea, so I will be absolutely amazed if I don't fall behind on anything and eventually drop them.

Previews for shows are ridiculously spoilery. Dunno why shows allow them. I guess to drum up interest for the next episode but do they have to give away plot points and important scenes?

No, no, no I actually went into this yesterday, Toei are especially awful at this from beginning and end, take Bodacious Space Pirates for example, the previews can make it look like stuff is happening without spoilering, and sometimes the preview is more entertaining than the episode it's actually portraying.

It doesn't help that a fair number of shows don't stop even after the ED, so it's harder to not look at next episode previews, unless you know for a fact it's Toei.

It never ceases to amaze and scare me how fast this topic moves. Don't feel like posting a list right now.

HAPPY NEWS FROM YEN PRESS:
For those of you who crave more Spice and Wolf novels and want them faster, Yen Press's announcements this morning should have you counting your coins. The publisher has announced this morning on twitter that they have now also licensed volumes 7-9 of the 17 volume light novel series.

Additionally, instead of only releasing two volumes a year, they will be releasing three "going forward," meaning volumes 7-9 will all be out by June of next year. The 6th volume of Spice and Wolf will be released in North America on June 12, 2012.
