TRIGGER set up a lot of lore in those twenty minutes that seems like a corner point towards building an actual television series around. Maybe that will be their next project after the new Imaishi animu? [/fanwank]

Maybe that's why it has merchandise too.

Legend of the Galactic Heroes - 31: Inquiry

Not gonna lie, I'm getting a bit addicted to this show. The current rhythm of the episodes is just perfect.

Legend of the Galactic Heroes - 32: A Battle Without Weapons

~ You could even call it a greenhouse for raising a dictator. ~

Spoiler

And we're on the cusp of the Imperial invasion!
With the Alliance forces handicapped by missing their star Admiral, it is clear they are in a bit of a pinch.
The restaurant guy (who was he anyway?) brought up an interesting point of Yang possibly grasping power in the future, even if he doesn't want to.
Poor Louis Mashengo didn't get any credit from Yang.

Aw yissssssssssssss. I read all LoGH impressions so keep it up.

I watched LoGH in a week so I know the feeling. Pacing is so good.

That would be neat, but the TV show would never be able to live up to the animation standard set in the short.

Would you be happy if the tv series took off and you got a movie with that sort of standard?

 

[cajunator]

No clue how long these have been off or if at all nor the show quality for most but some anime seems to be returning to Netflix:

Trigun
Hetalia S1-2
Eden of the East
Sekirei
D-Gray Man S2
Initial D: First-Fourth Stage
Black Butler S1
Kenichi S1-2
Hero Tales
Girls Bravo

A good sign.
It is so ridiculously barren on Netflix. I'd say 90% of it is either stuff I already own or have seen and don't care to again. The initial rollout on netflix was amazing. Thats why I am not fond of the whole digital download/streaming model. Things will come and go, but they wont be offered for a long duration.

 

[Shergal]

It would be nice if they did one or two OVAs, but a full cour also seems like too much for the premise.

Iso was willing to sacrifice his career for 2D animation. What's to stop Yoshinari from following on his footsteps?

Netflix is kind of pointless in the context of anime and online digital streaming. With a hulu account one could get access to actually running anime during the season their airing as well as a large selection of content from multiple companies. With a funimation account, one could get currently running series in addition to those all seasons and movies of the anime that are coming back to netflix as listed up there, and the choice of sub or dub.

Love Live 12

I've been putting this off because of an assignment and a piece of writing I had to submit, but damn. Definitely more evidence that direction and execution trump premise. The amount of drama they managed to pull out of something that seems relatively trivial is actually quite impressive, and the direction of the scenes after Kotori dropped her bomba was very, very strong. Actually, I felt a lot of the dialogue/translation flowed really well and felt like the kind of thoughts people would be feeling in those situations. It felt 'real' so to speak even though it was about an utterly implausible situation.

It did kind of sideline the whole saving the school thing but I think that was overtaken in importance a few episodes ago at this point.

Yeah, it's a secondary service for me behind Crunchyroll but it's not to have options. I tend to watch stuff like that on my PS3 but am not fond of Viz's Neon Alley approach and don't think Funi has a PS3 player.

Dunno why anyone would settle for anything less than a movie.

Thanks Love Live. You made Winter Season complete for me.

Hulu is shit. It is one of the most unpleasant ways to watch content, and the video quality on most of their anime is nearly unwatchable.

 

[Syrinx]

Little Witch Academia sounds pretty sweet, will make a note to check it out.

Kids on the Slope 01

Holy shit.

That drum sakuga. My god.

? It was great in hd for accel world, k, rinne no lagrange, sword art online, and koi to senkyo to chocolate for me and a good backup for simulcasts like psycho pass, kingdom, and codebreaker, and toriko. I had no issues.

 

[Jintor]

My Girls und Panzer crunchyroll queue is stuck on 10.5 even though I've watched 11 and 12. Weird.

 

[Lain]

Chihayafuru S2 12

I admit that I felt the the background info about the opponents was wasted time: I wanted to see more of the match!
I'm not sure how I feel about Chihaya's characterization as a slow burner when it matters, though it gives that excitement rush when she starts going.

Look at the url. Do you see what it says? That's right. It says anime.

Furthermore, there's this: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/new...ny/friendship-is-magic-has-manga-in-the-works

Anime with a japanese-made manga. How much more anime do you need?

Toaru Kagaku no Railgun - 07

Great episode besides that Index loser showing up and white knighting the lead. That shit makes my blood boil.

At least I got some Kuroko humor near the end of the episode at least. #salt

Toei commissions a beach episode and they show more skin from the dudes than the girls? whatthefuckisthisbullshit.jpg

They also forgot to pay for a background artist.

Or maybe it did and I just never noticed.

Because you hadn't watched enough to turn gay yet.

That was all kinds of amazing.

It gets a little more blatant later on as seen below.

Player is garbage. The advertising scheme is unbearable. Try watching anything from more than a year ago maybe.

 

[Tomat]

Man, my life coulda been a lot different had I kept on watching. Media indoctrination is a scary thing.

How could I have missed this series. Its good.

 

[Awful Falafel]

Little Witch Academia

Just watch it already it's awesome. Not much to say that hasn't already been said but I do think the music deserves more props. Kind of makes me wonder how much of that grant money went to hiring a full blown orchestra.

Guys, what if LWA is the "Citizen Kane" of anime?!

Citizen Kane was famous because of how it influenced all of film making that came afterwards for the better. As great as LWA was I don't think the lower tier studios are going to look at this and suddenly pump out things anywhere nearly this good. In other words anime isn't saved just yet.

But man, if LWA did pull a Citizen Kane and save anime then it would be the tastiest crow I've ever eaten.

 

[Crash Station]

Ixion Saga DT end

Well that was fun. A dumb non-serious solution to a dumb non-serious show.

It was a good series. Wasn't amazing, but it had its moments. Definitely can see the subtle Gintama touch in a few places.

Wish that troll tease at the end was real.

we all know the real citizen kane of anime is gonna be aku no hana. bow down to your rotoscoped future

PV showed just backgrounds, they're saving it all for the big reveal.

I hope it looks neat so I no longer equate rotoscoping with balrogs in bedroom slippers in my mind.

Kuroko is the only thing that matters. Misaka who?

I actually have both Mikoto (the winner of ISML 2011) and Kuroko in my Yomecolle. It's just so hard to choose between them, so I had to choose both!

And I'll just leave this here. I <3 fripSide. <3 <3

Finished the current season of Minami-Ke. This thing really continues to just be a joy to watch.

Though I do have a whole raft of questions about certain plots and whether they will ever move forward or just be eternal like the Simpsons or something. Like Mako-chan ever coming out to Chiaka and Haruka or whether Hosaka will ever approach Haruka.
