Accel World 2

I'm really annoyed by Haru constantly whining, complaining, and angsting throughout the episode. Holy crap and I thought Shu was bad. I'm fine with angsty main characters as long as their angsting is justified, like Shinji. Shinji's life is a mess, he's dad not helping by being a major asshole, I can understand even if I don't like it. Haru's whining because his avatar's not kakkoii enough? Get out.

...22 more episodes of this shit? Just kill me now.

Kannazuki no Miko 1

lol, this is exactly how I remembered it. Unfortunately, I could not understand the concept of glorious yuri before, hence why I dropped this after one episode. Now I can truly appreciate the understated brilliance of girls drinking tea in a secret garden. *Fastens on yuri goggles*

Dat KOTOKO ED is as good as ever. I like how the "animation" is a lazy slideshow of a yuri Himeko x Chikane pic. Subtle, if I missed the numerous blushes when Chikane
unbuttoned Himeko's shirt
to do CPR or the surprise
HAPPY BIRTHDAY! kiss

There's a circle in hell reserved for people with your widescreen tendencies.

Such mutilation should be a criminal offence.

You didn't think I was actually going to write about an episode of Bebop normally, did you? I had to do something to avert attention from the fact
that I liked that episode.

So just why are you doing this to yourself?

Well, scrub is the more exact term I suppose. That progress bar is really helpful!

Visual entertainment was better when people just had to sit their and watch it, or leave. The ability of viewers to pause, stop, retastart or fast-froward through segments destroys the meaning which the director and his or her team have strived to create.

I want to suffer like my hero, wonzo

my yuri goggles are apparently going to explode

Watch Strawberry Panic, and they'll go nuclear, then!
It's better than Strawberry Panic!

It allows us to all be editors! Democratization of video!

Like many other great action sequences!
Tell that to modern Michael Bay...

[Gintama 214]

A great arc with a great ending. These short-arcs are so efficient, it's impressive how much they can do in five episodes.

Unlike nearly every other arc in Gintama the protagonists, antagonists and supporting players were all characters from the show, including people from minor episodes It wasn't just fanservice either - it tied into the story. This made made the action far weightier than normal, because we weren't just dealing with characters created solely for this arc, for the most part at least.

I assume these two are going to go out and form a 80's hair club preservation society -

The best part of these arcs, you can go back and rewatch them at your leisure without it feeling like a chore.

There was one scene in the arc I found was simply done, yet very effective.
When Otose was laying in the hospital bed she looked so frail, I couldn't at first figure out why. On my second watch through it hit me, her makeup was gone. Surprising how the omission of such a detail can change the perception of a character.

According to firehawk:



So off I go into Kannazuki no Miko.

It's true that Kannazuki goes off the deep end, at least more than Panic does, but I remember the actual yuri quotient being higher in Strawberry Panic. So basically, you should watch Strawberry Panic when you finish Kannazuki!

Oh yeah, might as well do both if you're going down the rabbit hole already. lol

Join in on the fun!

You guys can then go back to classy by watching Maria-sama ga Miteru afterwards!

Well, I don't understand how else you're supposed to end a movie without a 35 minute action scene.
99.9% of movies don't end with a 35 minute action scene! Some of them don't have them at all!

Another show?

My backlog's growing bigger by the minute.

...I guess it's yuri so that's ok then. My yuri goggles have never been so ready.

I bet after Strawberry Panic I'm going to be watching Marimite or something <_<

Whatever works for you, man. You can never get too much yuri.

Marimite is the definitive yuri work, so it's a good idea to watch Kannazuko and Strawberry panic to warm yourself up for it. :)

So how does it compare to the original Cutie Honey?

From what I've seen of the original, Re: is a lot more frenetic, nudity isn't as classy, and it's very flashy. It reminded me a lot of Panty and Stocking, even though it predates it.


Now I have to see the live action Cutie Honey!

The boring random mission episodes are really boring, while the episodes where something actually happens make me sleepy. and the yuri undertones aren't strong enough :(

Another amazing episode. The action animation was extremely well done, and the dialogue between Rider and Archer was great, once again. Lancer is a cool dude, too.

Next week should be fucking awesome
Saber vs Lancer cot damn

I really enjoyed the first episode. I love the idea of making the female lead taller than the male and using their complexes to create a bond between the two.

The imagination scenes where the torpedoes sunk both Otani and Koizumi's battleships had me rolling.
