A lot of problems in this show would be avoided if MC wasn't such a pushover. How strong can a Japanese middle school girl be?

I'm really enjoying this show though. I haven't seen another anime with dark humour like this.

Gonna have to agree with Berthier, here. Usagi is a scrub.

This episode was a shitload worse than the dinosaur one outside of the :sdburton. Cheap in every department; even the audio looked like it didn't pass through post-production at times.
I'm already used to Tuxedo Mask saving the day all the time, but here it was even lazier than usual! They didn't even show his entrance! Not to mention the denouement is blegh in general. Koan's halation was handled better.
tl;dr Ami episodes are a blight on this show

New OP > Old OP, however. It also continues that loving tradition of showing nekkid Sailor Senshi.

Sometimes I forget I'm even watching these at all:

Sugita's in it so I gotta keep watching now:

Oh, might as well say what I actually dropped:
- Yuyushiki

Oh. this reminds me that I didn't make a list yesterday:

Watching

-Team Chiho
-Titans and I
-"I can't be this siscon"

Most likely to backlog for summer

-Gargantia

Will only watch if moonspeak gives the okay/when there's plenty of Airi, but even that may not help

-Devil Survivor 2

The Vision of Escaflowne 12

CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLED IT.
Beautiful Sephiroth TOTALLY knocked up King Barret's daughter Marlene, and Adorable Cid is his baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Zaibach has 4 Demon Armies. Not just 1, not just 4 generals, but four damn armies of demons. Overkill much?

Should I pick up Gargantia? It has giant robots, doesn't it? And I've been hearing good things about it so far.

Duckroll was right. Devil Survivor 2 really is an inferior version of the first Devil Survivor. The talkytalkytalky bits of episode 5 kind of just rammed that point home anyway. Simple morality, simple characters, stupidly complicated conspiracy. It almost makes sense that this would be the game to get the big push and not the first one.

I think I'll just finish the anime so that I don't need to play the game.

From impressions, it seems I should occasionally nibble at the game instead of watching the anime. It may be inferior to the first, but it's not called Waifu Survivor for nothing! So, I'll kind of probably eventually get through it, maybe.

I should probably write up some impressions on this. You know, with words, and pictures, and probably .gifs too. That's going to take some time, though, so for now let it be known that it is an immensely charming and rather beautiful movie.

Dinosaur sakuga is the best sakuga.

Like a lot of adapted media, the game is much better.

Still in terms of story though DeSu > DeSu2

DeSu2 has the better waifus though.

After slogging through episode 4 I'm not sure if I want to finish the anime, even, let alone the game.
At least it's only one cour!

Or just play the first game again. lol

Because the first game isn't really about waifus anyway.

Seriously this episode was a load of :DTL. Kept waiting for them to get it on in that guy's bed. Blugh. Guy totally gives him porn, too. I don't even. Ah, well, anything that gets Hero Boy slapped in the face is fine with me. It was comical, and they all reacted somewhat independently from one another for a change. Once the mecha action kicked in, though, this episode really hit its stride, and was probably my favorite in the show so far. The team actually worked together (by not working together) to overcome their difficult task and carry the day.

Not all that bad, will keep watching.

I'm pretty much just watching DS2 for the waifus and the SMT demon cameos and it's been delivering on that front so far. Beyond that it's been pretty mediocre.

And at least it's not as ugly as the Persona 4 anime (low bar, etc.)

I still don't understand what's happening, there was a shower scene with Makochii with no fanservice, and Airi is adorable and has some perky boobs. This is going to be a long 7 weeks.

Glad to see someone else watching this! It is indeed very charming and well made. Dinosaurs are so adorable when done right.

HAHAHAHAHA LELOUCH GOT SLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAPED. You know, it'd be cool if his plan was actually
to kill all his siblings, forcing the king to let him reign.
But that obvs isn't it. Focusing the episode on Collin and her mom was a nice touch, too.

Devil Survivor 2 - 05

A.K.A the game is getting released on May 31st (EU) apparently...

I keep seeing this Airi person getting hyped (by Duckroll) and first impression is voiced by Kana Asumi.

Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu!! 8

The one where Tessa comes to visit. Sousuke gets more and more stressed, since he was already sleep deprived, and Cmdr. Mardukas makes it waaaaaay worse, then Sousuke unwittingly tells everybody he has a special relationship with Tessa (he's thinking of captain and subordinate, they're thinking boyfriend and girlfriend.) and pisses off Kaname in the process (let's face that that isn't hard to do.) What doesn't add up is that Tessa claims her father and Sousuke's guardian have been friends for a long time, so she's been allowed to play with Sousuke since they were young. Except everybody in the class knows Sousuke has been moving from warzone to warzone as a child and so the two stories don't mesh.

The truth, of course, is that Tessa's dad never met Sousuke, but died a long time ago. Kalinin, Sousuke's legal guardian, also never knew Mr. Testarossa. Tessa's past is a bit more messy than all this anyway
her mother was having an affair, Tessa saw, and mom dubbed her the unfavorite after that, even offering her to enemy agents when they attacked the house. Bereft of her parents, Tessa would eventually come to work with Mr. Mardukas, who was indeed a friend of her father.
 
Fan service.....lol.

Who stands still when someone sees them naked and more importantly why is the bathroom door open in fornt of the front door. Terrible floor plan.

Well I guess this depends on where you come from. Here in Finland most people don't have any problems seeing their siblings naked as they have gotten used to it since childhood because of our sauna culture.

Weird. I used take baths for my sister but that was like when she was 2-3 lol. I guess when you become older its just awkward.

Need more anime set in Finland apparently.
 
Cardcaptor Sakura 9


A clow card AND love rival? DOUSHIO??! I think I enjoy these clow card encounters that add some danger as opposed to the ones Sakura captures because they're causing a ruckus. Since she can become a super cool swordmaster now, maybe those kinds will become more prevalent.

That or Berthier is a proud graduate of Seto Kaiba's Dual Academy. Heck, she even lost to Seto's weakness; bullshit hero powers.

Maybe when I was a child yeah, but I don't know if I could stare at my naked brother and sister now that the three of us are adults.
