Okay, Code Geass is enjoyably terrible. From what I've heard of this, this gets nuts later. And not Code Geass R2's enjoyable kind of nuts. I only avoided it because I think the whole "stuck in a game" concept shouldn't be your main plot point when the goal from the start is to escape. That belongs in the horror genre, not here. Good luck getting through this. You'll need it.
You're reactions will be delicious. But if you truly want something amazing, watch Madoka Magica.

That was the most extreme beam of light in the episode, but trust me, they made sure our eyes were protected in all scenes those wicked wheels appeared in.

I see Garzey's Wing on there. Get to that dub, peaceiscloser.
No. That's awful in the most terribly vapid way.
They should at least be slightly entertained if they're going to choose one from the list.

This show continues to throw me out of a loop every week. I genuinely can't tell where this will go. Amazing voice work in this one, by the way.

Disapointing is not even the right word for the episode.
Seriously it was predictable and not that funny.
Now next week ..next week we're gonna have some delicious FRIENDSHIP.... this should be good.

It flopped?
Total Average Sales
15,188 - Chuunibyou Demo Koi ga Shitai! (Fall, 7 vols) 1,633 DVD (11%) / 13,556 BD (90%)
*9,794 - Hyouka (Spring, 11 vols) 1,125 DVD (12%) / 8,670 BD (89%)
*4,059 - Tamako Market (Winter, 6 vols) 518 DVD (13%) / 3,542 BD (88%)
Ummmm I thought it was one of the most successful, relatively, kyoani shows in recent history.

You're probably thinking of Hyouka.
Hyouka didn't flop. Tamako Market was the big underachiever when it comes to sales.
I must of confused with Tamako. I know one of the KyoAni shows flopped.

This reminds me! Nerawareta Gakuen came out on disc this week! The film is just as beautiful as I remember it being in the cinema - unfortunately, I'm pretty sure the plot is still just as much of a mess at the end, but I still think everything else in the film is so good that I'm still willing to let that slide.
I mean, look at this shot, only about 90 seconds into the film:
I can't get over how much I love the colour choices Ryosuke Nakamura made for this film and, as excessive as it may be, his tendency to oversaturate everything with light and motion.
Obviously for some people it's probably sensory overload but I just think it's beautiful - particularly at this point in the film, where it's accompanied by a manipulatively melancholy piano theme (the film's music is by the same guy who did Mouryou no Hako and Hashire Melos)
I hope you all get the chance to watch the film sometime soon. You'll probably all hate how the plot turns out, but I still really think it's worth seeing.
Thanks for sharing. Mouryou no Hako has some delightfully haunting tracks; I wouldn't mind hearing some more from that artist. I recall the title "Nerawareta Gakuen" from a previous thread, but didn't think much of it before. I'll check it out.

What's with the wedding dresses?
Scratch that, I'd rather not know.
nothing interesting, just a photo shoot.
Well, yes. But I was referring more in terms of its popularity, at least comparatively. If any of these is deserving of attention, that is. Alas...

You'd think being attacked by a Zakenna while you're in tiny rowing boats atop a lake would be pretty inconvenient. Especially when one of the boats has a little old lady in it and the Zakenna creates waterfalls to send you hurtling over.
Thankfully, falling down a waterfall in this case just means landing safely in some kind of underwater pocket dimension (possibly inside the Zakenna?) How convenient. Cue PRECURE MARBLE SCREW! MAX! SPARKLE!

I just wanna say this looks really, really impressive.
From what I understand:
Yodoka or whatever the dudes name was met Tsukiko way back when, for some reason he made a wish that she'd get to go to Italy, so I'm guessing at some point in his earlier childhood she mentioned to him that she wanted to go to Italy when she got older. So the cat God was going to grant that wish, but then I guess that meant it had to keep him somewhat away from her because if they fell in love then she wouldn't want to go to Italy I'm assuming, so it erased his memory of him liking her and him meeting her in the past. But of course that doesn't get Tsukiko to Italy that just means Tsukiko doesn't have a man tying her down, so, uh. then, uh, not sure if the new girl is fake fake, or just was originally supposed to be in Italy still but I guess she was brought to Japan, or created, whatever, to take Tsukiko's place more or less, all the wishes she made however were not related to the main plot and just, uh, shit. Asuza made her own unrelated wish to become someone else so the Cat God took her body.
I dunno, it gets kinda difficult to keep track because it's all so fucking stupid. If the Cat God can warp reality like that I don't see why it needs to jump through hoops like that to get someone to Italy in the first place, but, uh, perhaps its sphere of influence is just the general area so it couldn't just make some random Italian school want a transfer student and pick the sisters for it so it had to transform the town into something that'd get international attention or something.
I dunno. I wouldn't try and think too hard about it because in this type of shit whatever conclusion you come to can either be wrong by default or retconned to be wrong later through wishes so it doesn't matter.

On an art related note (not my art though), someone on Pixiv decided to fix the cover of the final OreImo book for the better.

A despondent hero, an ensuing crisis, a redemptive flashpoint. Yup, it's all here, and i think it might be getting a little bit more serious, but not that serious. Some of the stuff can seem a little silly and melodramatic (how many times do we need to be reminded that Noriko shouldn't be fighting?), but her arc remains engaging. It's hard not to smile
when she takes matter into her own hands. And there is just no denying that musical swell when the Gunbuster is finally revealed.

So yeah, in other words, Flowers of Evil is one of the best shows I've seen in years. Truly outstanding. If, for some reason, you aren't currently watching it at the moment I implore you to go and experience the first three episodes of the series at least. Just...outstanding:
I dropped it at 7. It's a lot more boring and not as funny as the manga.
I may pick it up again when it's over and I know crazy shit has gone down.

Is it true, firehawk12? Is The Walking Dead a live-action version of High School of the Dead?

Well, High School of the Dead doesn't have Daryl, so it automatically loses 100 points on the comparison scale.

I was moreso simply teasing firehawk since I know he hates The Walking Dead. Hehe.

If it ends on a cliffhanger and bombs, will you (or anyone else) check out the manga? Might take some getting used to the art style, but it's the same content and still just as unpredictable as ever.

Summer festival episode. Nagisa is all worried about the fact that she doesn't have any dreams for the future, but Fuji-P helps her realise that as long as she's living life to the full in the present, that's enough for now.
We can also observe in this episode that the standard PRECURE MARBLE SCREW MAX has become so deprecated at this point that a generic Zakenna can hold it at bay by weakly batting at it with its stubby arms. Sigh.

I just don't know if I could enjoy the story without the rich atmosphere of the TV series. I don't enjoy it for being unpredictable, but for drawing me into a psychological state through visuals and sound and creating powerful empathy in me for the characters. I've checked out the first couple chapters of the manga, and despite the events being the same the presentation makes it feel like a campy farce, which is not what I want.
Thanks for the heads up.
Looks like I need to play catch up on Aku no Hana as well as DokiDoki! Precure today.
