Xam'd is the reason I discovered the Boom Boom Satellites. It'll always hold a special place in my heart for that.
And unrelated, I just finished My Little Monster, and I'm left feeling kind of indifferent. I actually quite enjoyed my time with it, but the unsurprising lack
I liked the supporting cast a lot, but any time an episode focused on Kenji, it kind of felt like a waste.
I dunno. I liked it, but I don't know if I liked it enough to read the manga now.
And unrelated, I just finished My Little Monster, and I'm left feeling kind of indifferent. I actually quite enjoyed my time with it, but the unsurprising lack
of closure (curse you manga) was nonetheless frustrating. Every plot thread that got started in the final few episodes was left open by the end, which bummed me out. It just didn't feel like a proper place to stop.

bad gameplay lol

Amazing band yup
It absolutely was a terrible place to stop. Right in the god damn middle.
Maybe wait until the manga ends, final volume is out in a couple of months.

Who the hell said that? Banner, especially Banner II are awesome! The series doesn't really go bad until Banner III that was rushed gunk for the most part.
What lead to this assumption? iirc it looked bad even since when we only had the mech designs.

One man to find them

Agreed. I was actually really disappointed when
it's revealed that she had feelings for Mi. I was hoping that good ole' dependable Sasayan would get some love.
EDIT: Woh, final volume is out in a few months? In the case I might as well read it then. Glad to see I'm not the only one frustrated with where they ended it. I have no problem with series having non-endings due to following the manga. I just take issue when the place they choose to end it makes no sense.

Poor Sasayan, eternally in the friendzone.
Also there's an OVA episode coming out at some point.

Finally making progress on all the recent shows on the backlog. Next up?
Shin Sekai Yori. A lot of Japanese friends of mine here looooove the original novels, so I had been planning to read it first. Alas, I had no time (shouldn't have read five volumes of SAO last year), so I'm going to end up watching it first. Anything I should prepare for going in?

Holy shitballs. 8 fucking pages since 6 PM?! Do yall sleep?
Oh man. This is great!
I missed you so much Awesomebear. You know that the Rinne boxset comes out pretty soon right?
HNNNNNGH. Just HNNNNGH.
I think they arranged either by boob size or by Cute factor
Yes, it is. Few people realize how hard it is.
I KNEW you were gonna buy this eventually. It was inevitable!
Fumoffu please!
Sure, why not?
Ice Queen is best queen.
I havent heard of this but it looks to suit my interest.
TWGOK is pretty fun stuff. Learn to date through vidya games like God. Shiori is the greatest character ever. However this is Hnnngzawa's greatest triumph and your heart is very likely to explode, so be extremely careful.

We even have a wan!

I know it was posted near the bottom of a page, but it really doesn't hurt to search back a couple pages for recent news.
On a different note, I would like to apologize again for the extended delay in posting the next survey poll. It'll be ready within 24 hours from now, I promise.

Eh, I still liked Banner III just for how it punctuates the story thus far.

Probably the one redeeming thing about it imo.
But really it's such a waste and sticks out like a sore thumb.

My apologies. I had skimmed through the last couple pages, but I somehow failed to notice your post.
Anyway, I am now a bit interested in the new Rozen Maiden. I had marked Hatakeyama as a director to keep an eye on after Sankarea, despite its problems, so I'm curious to see what he'll do here. Mochizuki on writing duty is also interesting.
Well let's face facts,
The Walrus might as well be a Titan
Also I have half a mind to do a Season 4 Recap of VGCW to the song. I know we're only one episode into Wrestlevania but gatdamn, that song.
The Walrus is single handedly scarier than any of the Titans in the actual series. Yet another testament to the greatness of Pingu.

Funny i think the show took a nose dive in ep 14-15.. i'm curious in what happensin ep 16 but somehow the show managed to kill my interest before that point and i haven't come back to see the rest ever since.
Well ok why not ....
LoooolI'm official withdrawing my support for Attack on Titan's OP under "best direction". It was a mistake. After further analysis I have concluded that the entire OP is a fraud. A deception. The impression the OP gives most people is that it has to be well directed because it seems to fit the song so well and everything works.
The truth? The song is the Anime OP equivalent of the Guile Theme. It works with pretty much anything, as long as there are repeated motions, fast motion, and most importantly visual garbage on screen. There are over a dozen parody OPs using the song, and they all work relatively well at the bare minimum even with zero effort. Those with actual effort put in work amazingly well. Good direction is not required.
FRAUD!
I was under the impression that the more something was good , the more parodies you'd find on the internet ?
Doesn't this mean that the song is at least god-like ?
Lool cajun , not sure if you're qualified to say that ... and besides this was saturday & sunday , the moment where the good stuff happens.
If you don't like syrop , cajunator then something won't be right with the world.
It's a bit short and all over the place but I think it's still quite good. It has those great scenes with the insane pilot girl and Jinto and Lafiel after all. All things considered we were lucky we got anything at all.
Didn't do much for me until I got to the parody of the slow-motion scene, which was great.
I think I saw a parody picture somewhere of the scenes from the end of the OP (slow-mo jump, everyone leaping up from the buildings at once), except with titans instead of soldiers.
This is the right way to approach a show!
That's the right way to approach a season.
correct.
ssssssshhhhhhh don't say anything or MAL will edit the title.
Speaking of which, here are some more title "enhancements" that I noticed on my list recently:
Shame on MAL for taking so long to deliver some titles from the yoke of our barbarian tongue.
Why did they change ALL PURPOSE CULTURAL CATGIRL NUKU NUKU?
FUCK YOU MAL. FUCK YOU IN YOUR NERDY WEEABOO FACE.
Rozen Maiden is ok desu. You might like the characters and cute in it desu. Suiseiseki is fucking crazy desu. Suigintou is best girl desu! Ali Project sucks desu!
The only OPs that matter are 1. Muromi and 2. Aiura
The rest can go home and ponder how much they suck.
Fuck no.
Steins;Gate, Madoka Magica, Fate/Zero, Bunny Drop, Shin Sekai Yori, Psycho Pass, Gargantia
Correct!
Best anime: Muromi-san
Biggest surprise: Muromi-san
Will keep watching because of cute girls: Yuyushiki
Biggest disappointment: Red Data Girl and Devil Survivor 2
Best OP: Attack on Titan
Best ED: I guess Devil Survivor 2? Nothing else caught my attention.
edit: Ok I forgot about Titan's ED, that one is much better.

It must be hell. Going through being an in-betweener while not even being sure if you'll ever get to work consistently as a KA, on top of being paid two meals per week on average.
Key Animation should be fun if you're in a good environment and can choose what to animate (which admittedly doesn't seem very common at all).
I dont like Snafu but Hentai ouji has potential.

Kingdom is worth watching, especially before Kingdom 2 starts up, excellent take on the genre and good tactics and character motivations/development.
Maybe look into Brave10 too.
I thought second half of Guilty Crown was just as good as the first half. Ending, was alright I thought. If were really grouping the three shows, then I think Valvrave = Guilty Crown > Code Geass (1st half) > Code Geass (2nd half). Valvrave is already on my top 10 anime ever list, Guilty Crown too, though I guess Im unfortunately in a minority opinion here.
Attack on Titan's OP just feels really overrated, though I guess with over 1mln views and tons of paradies. it really feels as if the OP is kind of not that special if it can really be fitting for so much stuff, perhaps theres been a lack of creativity behind it, unfortunately.
OP
1. Uta no Prince Sama Maji Love 2000%
2. Majestic Prince
3. Valvrave
4. Arata The Legend
5. Devil Survivor 2: The Animation
ED
1. Karneval
2. Valvrave
3. Uta no Prince Sama Maji Love 2000%
4. Arata The Legend

Haven't watched SNAFU so I can't comment on it just yet. Starting YUYUSHIKI now.
Yuyushiki is excellent entertainment, but I can only comment the usual about it.

Valvrave has already started off better than 97% of the 251 anime Ive finished. And it has every component necessary for a definitive anime.
Just 97%? Why not 98%? what a failure.

Attack on Titan 3
Oddly enough, I think this was the best episode so far. It had its comedic elements, but they were mostly intentional and not a product of forced melodrama and over-the-top acting and directing. I'm sure we'll get more of that soon enough though. The production values were visibly lower, but I can't say it matters for this type of episode.

Good to know your watching experience with hundred titles didn't matter that much for you.

I was expecting a flashback ... The one i expected was a couple of seconds and i got another totally unexpected.
I do mind a little because they could have took care of this properly if they did the right thing from the start instead of giving me this filler.
New opening animation is alright , new ED is just average.
I do like the premise of seeing all those new faces animated.
Pacing excellent as usual

Kaito is finnally there !!! There is like no reason to not watch this now.

Ironically that mistake was how I got into watching FullMetal Panic in the first place.
Oh come on, don't bring me into this little tissywiz.
That Pingu one is amazing. I'm glad this is a thing.
I think the actor didn't want to do it anymore so they killed her off in the most meta way imaginable.
Welp.
Don't have much hope that Hatakeyama will find better storyboarders this time, LOL.
Oooooooooooooooooooooo
