Maturity, bitches.
I want to see a SOL anime with an English teacher played by an actual native English speaker. That'd be pretty cool.
I had a similar idea, but it was about an exchange student. In anime they always have what seems to be perfect Japanese, so I'd want to do the opposite and have them know no Japanese. Because this is obviously a comedic idea they would be a typical U wot m8 geezer.

Gotta be a cute girl.

Yo! You sayin' English gals can't be cute?
 
dulce report would make a good anime imo

Was gonna post some deep comment about why this hasn't been animated yet ..but i realised that this wouldn't be appropriate for regular anime viewers

So instead i'll just say this :

Considering just how stupid some scenes are
( she is my cousin , let me tell you how to get rid of this )
and how "involved" every character get, it'll be the greatest anime ever or the greatest flop of the century.

It's a puzzle as to why everyone in this school is excited over the crossdressing pageant.
Puzzles !! Remember in this world , the world puzzle solving/making you can do the better human you are. The fact that he has cooking and house holding skills is just a plus.

CorvoSol just got tricked into watching a shoujo animu lol.

Escaflowne is for everyone

LOL. Dat CG. Also, all that flattering writing... out of all of it, only like 5% really mattered and felt something good. Well.... at least I like Shiki. Kokutou was useless as shit this time. Also, the characters vastly inferior to the Murder Speculation 2 versions. W/e. lol.

According to this notice from the official Hataraku Maou-sama site, we're not going to get the regular OP animation until episode five -- apparently because it hasn't actually been completed yet.

bad gameplay lol
If you had found something that was exactly (or near enough) to my idea I would have enter a thousand years of despair so I'm glad you couldn't think of anything. There's also that other show coming out in some future season of a Brit family exchange thing.

Kiniro Mosaic?

Aku no Hana - Episode 2

Best visual shot in the entire episode.

This show is still ugly, the rotoscoping is still annoying, and the general prevailing feeling is that it is just plain unpleasant to watch. There's a lot of "good" in the show in terms of how realistic the character behaviors and emotions are, and how frustrating it can be being a teenager, but at the same time... it's just really hard for me to focus on the good things because I'm really turned off by how most of the show looks. Rotoscoping really isn't for me. I'm not sure how many more episodes I will last. :(

Yuyushiki - Episode 2

Dogs, dogs, dogs everywhere in my anime!

I really enjoyed this episode. The jokes worked much, much better this time round, and the show really nails the feeling of 2 retarded friends and their normal friend just spending time doing nothing at all and being stupid. I laughed a lot more this week. As I said previously, I really relate to the character dynamic here, and honestly, being kids there's nothing wrong with just being stupid and random. Their antics are funny, and Google HooYA! continues to be extremely educational to everyone! :D

I definitely look forward to more characters being introduced, because it's going to be hilarious to see how Yukari and Yuzuko land themselves in jail try to interact with other normal people! Lololol.

Question: if Aku no Hana is unpleasant to watch but intentionally so to project this unsettling feeling of blah blah blah, but you still don't actually want to watch it... I'm not really sure what I was going to ask, but I just finished some Dostoyevsky recently and that was some cringe-ass Russian reading from the 1800s so the idea of good literature that I nonetheless don't particularly like reading was on my mind.

All mecha shows are for girls now.

I'm sure the blushing shoulders in Gargantia and the outsize racks in Majestic Prince set many a lady's heart a-racing.

Seriously, what is up with the shoulder blushes in Gargantia? Is it supposed to be sunburn from being out in the open ocean all the time?

Speaking of shows for girls:

[Cardcaptor Sakura] - 1

So far, so magical girl. I can't really draw any conclusions based on this kind of introductory episode because the magical girl shows that I've watched tend to quite a few warm-up episodes before they actually get going. Still, what's on display here is rather enjoyable and the production values are extremely good, thank you Madhouse for not being Toei. Of course, as this is just the pilot I expect the production values to crash down to earth for future episodes.

I think we should have a running tally of how many instances of blatant sexual harassment friendly, completely harmless yuri Yukari and Yuzuko commit over the course of the series.

I wasn't being entirely serious earlier. Although it is worth nothing that even shows like Gundam 00 feature women with ridiculous breasts so it seems to be a given with whatever mecha show you're making. Although at this point I don't really consider Gargantia to be a mecha show, it just happens to feature a mecha.

Regarding blushing, this is a point I discussed excessively a few years ago regarding Broken Blade and also when it cropped up in Gulity Crown. It's a disease which is clearly spreading.

Although, now that I think about it, Broken Blade, Guilty Crown and Gargantia are all Production I.G. works. Hmm.

How can you not enjoy Dostoyevsky? :eek:

Regarding Cardcaptor Sakura, it is rather neat that the opening sets up the premise of the show straight away and explains why the character has to do what they have to do. That's surprisingly neat and tidy.

CCS is the best mahou shoujo show (sorry Hito).

Praise indeed. I am yet to see why the series has garnered such praise but I'm sure I'll find out soon enough.

Also, people sure are CLAMP in this CLAMP series. Those ridiculous legs are quite unnerving.

Also, Yukito keeps offering to take Sakura out for food. What a creeper.

The CLAMP-iness isn't that obvious since most of the characters are kids and thus haven't been put through the rack and stretched out yet.

CCS is just a pure and fun show. It never tries to overcomplicate and/or add unnecessary drama.

It's the Sakuga among other things.
Also CLAMP people are best people.

We are officially friends now. I fuckin' loved Bodacious Space Pirates so hard. Been delaying starting the novels actually.

I seriously just got out of bed, grabbed my earphones, and went to YouTube just to listen to it again.

CorvoSol just got tricked into watching a shoujo animu lol.

If youre going to be tricked into watching a show, Escaflowne is one of the very best to be tricked into.

Does that mean it's for girls? I'm sure I can survive. I Made it through 00, and that was for yaoi fangirls only.

Escaflowne appeals to a lot of demographics. why do you think Merle is in it? Because holy fuck :cajun thats why.

How does one dance in bed? Spasm out under the sheets?

Quite easily.

CCS is a moenuke and a sakuga bomb all in one. Her outfit changes in every episode and there isnt a whole lot of reused footage because of it. The songs are adorable. sakura is adorable. The mascot is funny and great, The show does't talk down to the audience. Its all fucking perfect. Cardcaptor Sakura is PERFECT.

Card Captor Sakura made me hate pianos.

Especially the kinds that chase you and freak the fuck out.

Remember the N64 Mario game with the haunted piano? Scariest shit ever.
Evil pianos can fuck right off!

CCS is the best mahou shoujo show (sorry Hito).

This is truth. Undeniable certified truth.

This just jumped several places on my backlog just now.


So bought.

Escaflowne is WELL worth your time. It is even worth a rewatch. Start it soon!

Watched a ton of anime on CR on my PS3 since my laptop brick literally exploded into smoke yesterday (god damn Acer is Chinese QUALITY to the max).

Titan - Awesome. Not much more to say. My third favorite show of the season so far after Gargantia and Aku no Hana.

Henneko - Pretty fun but kinda confusing maybe it was the booze that made this harder to understand. Is the main girl supposed to be unattractive or something because shes as cute as a button. Girl needs some more confidence but she wishes for
no emotions wat
. Baka.

Yuyushiki - I hate this show. I thought for sure I'd love this before I watched it as I enjoy most female clique shows. Its gorgeous but I just don't like these girls (at least 2 episodes in). Its also way too lewd for a show like this, its honestly distracting. I wish the show was more pure. I'll give it a few more episodes but meh so far.

Sparrow's Hotel - uhhh why does stuff like this even exist? It's one of those completely pointless VA porn shows although none of these people seem that famous? I recgonize the voices but they don't seem that marquee. Maybe I'm just in the wrong here dunno. Its really ugly and cheap too, feels like a poor fanmade project honestly.
