Hmm, looks like I had a lot of wrong assumptions about the series before. I will check it out, although I'm leaning on reading the manga instead if I can stomach their character designs.

To be fair, there is a lot of Shojou like situation that keeps coming up here and there, but if you ignore that, Its a pretty great light-hearted series that deals with comedic work environment (and drama)

The Manga is the complete one, since the Anime just stopped half-way through and there is not a plan to be picked up again because of its weak sales.

I don't quite get Muromi. I didn't find anything in the first episode good at all honestly. It was kinda boring, the characters were very annoying, the premise isn't interesting, the joke were bad, the OP song is awful. :(

It's OK Duckroll

No one can have 100% perfect taste. Our flaws are what makes us human.

Hmm, I'll stick with Yuyshiki and Azasel for now and see how it goes.

And I'll ad Muromii on to that list.

I am not gonna watch Hayte because its a sequel and Sorry Dedication but Majestic Prince because I hate Mecha :(

No, they're just fine on their own.

Imagine how foolish one would look if the audience was just AnimeGAF and you were the only one waving on of these things around like a 6 year old. Silly I tell you, silly.

It's the thing with comedy tbh, the very fabric that holds a show together is something that tends to be evaluated differently by different people.

First episode made me giggle at points but nothing to big. Episodes 2 and 3 were better imo.
I also hated the OP song but warmed out to it over time. The visuals on the OP are still top-notch though. And most of the show infact.

Someone here doesn't believe in miracles.

Now we all know who to blame for Chemical Happy 2. :mad:

Actually this season is crazy so I can't pick up a lot of shows. Currently watching:

Chihayafuru S2
HunterXHunter 2011
Red Data Girl
OreImo
Hatarku Maou-Sama

That is just too much and I haven't even started on the ones people are taking about...
Best Season in while?

That's the thing though, energy weapons with the ability to vaporise people don't really have the power to knock people out. They burn them in one way or another, the assumption that there is something in between flashing them with bright lights and setting them on fire is probably not accurate.

Doesn't have to knock them out just knock them over, probably widening the spectrum while shooting short bursts would do the trick.

Hunter x Hunter 75 - 76

Fortunately I only went through the Chimera Ant arc just before the author went on the latest hiatus, so I have no pent up "It's happening" pre-hype to this, but I can only sympathize for those who have waited for over a decade for this.
 
Arata The Legend 3

Best scene in this good episode. I thought they'd try to conclude this in one episode as based on the start of it we have the next goal but was rather pleased that it will at least continue on for one more. The new characters introduced are fun and they helped Arata get good scenes. Curious of how the foe can be defeated.

Picture quality Hit or miss

I'm not an expert in marvel timeline or technology But i don't mind ironman.
So when a friend comes and say ..hey let's watch ! I ..watched this movie.

The animation is alright ... i've seen better . There are a couple of scenes where it's great looking but for 90% of the time it's just "ok".
Nothing to note in term of music .It's there but nothing to remember either.

Now the plot is not bad ..the first half of the movie is quite alright. the second half is less intresting and madhouse exploited in maximum their stillshots . The finale is full of deus ex machina and convient things happening to get some fights out of it.They did get way overdramatic for the end.

Nick Fury is stupid thanks to the plot.
Black widow is alright but could be better
Hawkeye is great but doesn't have enough scenes.
Punisher was alright

Conclusion :
This was a nice movie. I can't recommand it to everyone because you need to enjoy this before ( the movies are nice places to start ).
6/10

I have a feeling someone made Ultimadrago ULTRA HAPPY!

Doesn't have to knock them out just knock them over, probably widening the spectrum while shooting short bursts would do the trick.
That is assuming they had the ability to knock people over which wouldn't make sense for beam type weapons at all. If he could he'd have probably done that on the second part of the 3rd episode but I guess that's more space for another plothole there!
 
gargantia 3

jexhius pretty much sums it up nicely, It's still hard to take things seriously when... lobsters.

I really like the effect they use for the water i this show though.
 
Now that Media Blasters is crawling out its grave, it's gonna target the one niche no other US distributor has filled!

North American distributor Media Blasters reported on Saturday that it is interested in adding more boys-love titles to its lineup. The company is asking fans to message the company privately on Facebook with suggestions.

Media Blasters announced the boys-love title Ai no Kusabi: The Space Between last year. The video anime series is slated for release on DVD on Tuesday.

If I lie and tell Media Blasters that Sayonara Zetsubou-sensei is yaoi, will they finally release it?

Regarding Gargantia, despite these things, I still think the show it well put together and an entertaining watch. Did Uroubuchi pen the whole thing? Last I heard we weren't sure if wasn't just the first episode or something.

Wait Chihaya! What are you doing? This isn't your show! P-san will be mad.
Awwwww how cu... You little shit!

So far so good, that was pretty cute and the characters seem likeable and well designed.
Visual direction for this show is also pretty sweet so far. Pacing for this episode was also pretty nice. Will watch more tomorrow.
 
Aku no Hana 3

God damn that
forced dressing scene
Nakamura seems even more imposing in this than she does in the manga. Really good casting job.

According to duckie, he only wrote the first one out of the first five.

Wow was all hyped up and such for some epic action for Panama.
Why so brutal Coordinators, even worst, firing on the people when they even surrendered, :(
. Anyway, like the new developments and wonder what Dearka's fate will be, he's pretty hilarious and kind.

Okay, so remember the
spider monster thing whatever that was killing Saya's classmates in the last episode before Saya finally decided to start fighting? Well, the monster is strong and throws Saya around a bit, all while rampaging through the school, killing all her classmates except the SC president and Tokizane-san before Saya gets those red cat eyes that she never seemed to have trouble getting before but all of a sudden needs the total murder of her whole class before she gets them now. I might chalk that up to her headache issue with her remembering stuff, since that happened mid-fight...but this show is kinda stupid, so I'm not sure that was the case. Whatever, she wins. Then Saya's teacher sees her outside and asks her if she's the one who killed everybody.

Then as she's talking to Tokizane-san, she realizes something; her class was the only one at school that day. And her teacher was the only one there, and she only saw her outside. Yep, it seems that the teacher is heavily involved, and not in a good way, if that wasn't predictable enough.

So, remember when I said I fucking hated Saya's father? Well here's why. After all this transpires, as he sees her outside in the middle of the night, he asks her, "Saya, what's wrong?" You have to be fucking kidding me at this point. No way this dude is serious. What's wrong? Well, let's see, there was that one little thing where she WATCHED HER ENTIRE FUCKING CLASS GET BRUTALLY MURDERED BY A MONSTER AFTER PROMISING TO PROTECT THEM, HOW'S THAT FOR WHAT'S MOTHERFUCKING WRONG. SHITDICK?! Then at the end she realizes that she doesn't know her mother's name. I'm gonna predict that there's gonna be something dumb, like her teacher is her mother, and also the queen of the Elder Bairns. Or something.

There's a lot of crap to reveal in the final three episodes. I'm interested to see how it'll end, but not anxious. The real trolling still hasn't seemed to kick in.

I didn't hug mine, but I did hold it up and looked at it with glee. :)

I like the villains, they're full of character. The ramen battle was pretty spiffy. I hnnnged at the student council president behind the statue bit. Oh, and the monster designs are much more interesting than the endless Akanbes. Those were dumb.
