Uta no Prince Sama Maji Love 2000% Episode 7 (utapri)
Personally Natsuki is my least favorite due to that personality however Satsuki is really amazing so Im always faced with conflicting emotions with his moments. Satsuki moments were awesome. The best scene was when we knew it was happening and Nanami made that weird scream in panic about it. Additionally it has the best action scene, had to go through that twice. Way fun episode.
I wonder if the next episodes will involve Quartet Night? Seems a waste if they only sung Poison Kiss and thats it all season...

Between Sailor Moon, Madoka, various Precure series, Doremi, and Cardcaptor Sakura this thread might as well be renamed Mahou Shoujo |OT|.

It's certainly one of my favorite shows of the season. It's just constant absurd entertainment and it's adorable to boot.

Honestly, I'm more hyped by the premise more than anything else. I will say that given what I know and where they've said they'll end the series,
I'm not sure if it will be satisfying as a series. It sort of depends on whether or not they have the balls to end the series definitively, since I imagine that a sequel series will never happen.
Or it might be another Pet Girl. lol
You actually know the songs?!
I'm just here for dead-eye moe and the bishies!
This gives me an excuse to post this screencap again!

It really is adorable but theres something a bit more of substance to it. Its actually not stupidly written.

I thought Pet Girl supposedly became terrible from like... episode 3 and then a crime against humanity as time went on.

Oh god I was trying to block the memories of Pet Girl. >>;
I think he has no eyebrows. Seriously, he's just another misbehaved soldier in a show of misbehaved soldiers who are all surprised when their misbehaving teenage soldiers misbehave, too.
Zeta Gundam's second act is a disappointing mess.
I'd say he
KILLS HIS SISTER and spends the day laughing about how he's going to have to kill his former best friend. It's pretty obvious what Lelouch is.
Let's review why what happens in the last two episodes are exactly what he wanted:
First, Nunally asks, "You love her (Euphemia), too, don't you?" and he says "I did." Lelouch is FURIOUS about the fact that Euphemia's special zone has in one fell swoop destroyed his rebellion. He brings a weapon to their meeting, and orders her to use the gun to shoot him in front of everyone. That's right, Lelouch had planned, going into that meeting, for exactly what did happen: Euphemia to fire a gun, defame herself, and send all the PR back to his own movement. He wanted what happened to happen. The only reason she didn't do it, was because his Geass was going through puberty. Then, still talking about it, his Geass finds a way to accomplish what he wants just the same. Euphemia goes out, fires a gun, and destroys the special zone, her cred, and ignites the flame of Lelouch's own movement. He then kills her to cover his tracks, realizing how sloppy he's been, and claims, perhaps more for his own benefit than C2's, that using all of this to their benefit is the least he can do for her.
Lelouch wanted what happened to happen, right from the start. He's a cold, craven person. No way he "couldn't catch up to her" as she ran down that hall. We can't even say its because he isn't athletic, because EUPHEMIA WAS IN GODDAMN HEELS. Lelouch had every advantage and every opportunity to stop her, abduct her, and save her. Instead he let it all happen because he wanted it to.
I think it wouldn't have been so bad for me personally if I didn't get a specific type of genius Level-E vibe from the first episode. It really rocketed my expectations because I was laughing out loud. I'll hop back onto it and see if it can still capture my interest, but just by the way people have been talking about it, it sounds more like the show might revolve around really uninteresting relationships and melodrama and less on well delivered dead pan humor. Just a bit of conjecture that i'll confirm or deny myself!

Sadly over the years I've gotten used to the idea of an anime starting strong and ending poorly.

Pet Girl was fine for the first 4 episodes. Then it kept repeating those 4 episodes to its inevitable non-ending.
Never Forget!
Lelouch is a slimy piece of shit through and through.

Cardcaptor Sakura 21
This episode lines up perfectly with today's Smile Pretty Cure episode
Because both of our main cast comes in last place, but at least they can yell that it was a Clow Cards fault. I don't think Mei realizes that her "fiancé" is into dudes yet, but Li lets her live the dream a bit longer.
Cardcaptor Sakura 22
More family bonding! And a lesson that even magic can't bring back the dead (even though it's a computer). She has quite the family to be bonded, A bishonen dad, a bishonen older brother, and they all contribute to everyone's well being.
Status Quo has not changed a bit.

Since the last post I saw on this only sourced a direct-linked 4chan image that's since evaporated into the ether, here's a more concrete link for the Knights of Sidonia anime announcement. For anyone who's never heard of it before (like me):
- the anime will adapt the first six LN volumes in total through episode 12, and episode 13 will be an anime-original story
- there's also going to be a original OVA episode bundled with the Oregairu Vita game
- the LN author is writing the script for both original episodes
Also, a bit of info on future developments for Oregairu:
- the anime will adapt the first six LN volumes in total through episode 12, and episode 13 will be an anime-original story
- there's also going to be a original OVA episode bundled with the Oregairu Vita game
- the LN author is writing the script for both original episodes

What an episode! We've got a main character, not motivated by love, honour or duty, but fame! She doesn't give a shit about Haruto! Just wants dem twitter followers!
Suck it Haruto, watch the master. Sadly we also saw
The D-Squad was great this episode and next episode should provide the Eru Erufu moments that I love. This show is something special.

And she was victorious! She doesn't give a shit about the vampire stuff either.
Moses depart. It would have been nice to see him stick around for some more amazing lines.

Prosit! I love it when they do that.
Julian, the boy wonder, and his 'juvenile delinquents' have recaptured Iserlohn Fortress, with some aid of Yang's magic. To be honest, I don't know what Lutz could have done, other than simply staying inside. Sad to see his defending commander kill himself. But I guess the captain goes down with the ship.
Also, Reinhard's gonna be piiiiiissed when Lutz brings the report. That's not gonna be a nice sight. Especially since he knows he's gonna have to recapture it AGAIN, with all the troubles Iserlohn's ferocious defenses bring.

Dude, move your K-ON! figures. Why do you have them blocking your tv?
--Sailor Moon R Movie Ending Spoilers!--
While I liked the movie I feet the tension at the end is kind of lost.
You have the girls on the meteoroid crashing towards Earth and Usagi wants to use her crystal to protect them to which they're worried she'll die as what happened last series. The movie was originally released before the show had finished, or even if you watched it after you can tell it takes place sometime during the series, so it would seem weird to kill off Usagi in the movie especially with the show having the whole Crystal Tokyo and Chibiusa from the future story line. Even if it did happen it just felt like she could or would get revived again anyway.
Also,
I wonder why the girls didn't use Sailor Teleport to get off the meteoroid when that's how they got onto it in the first place.
When I first saw the title I thought of Super Super as well. I imagine quite a few people probably at least thought of it. It could stand for both of those plus Sailor Moon

I think I actually like the version of Moonlight Densetsu by Moon Lips better than DALI actually.
I thought it was actually pretty neat during Rei's premonition that
you hear this strange sound combined with her vision and it just adds to the disturbing atmosphere only for her to wake up and it's Usagi snoring. That sound transition from one situation to the next was really effective I thought.
I also felt bad for Rei this episode.
She's my favorite along with Minako and this first episode felt like what's usually reserved for later with the whole "Things are getting real" and how much more serious and darker in tone in presents itself right off the bat compared to what had happened in the series so far. While still maybe having a more serious atmosphere overall compared to the first two series parts it did seem to mellow out a bit and not be as serious as the first episode maybe initially made it seem like it would.
Looks kind of like the English "Spaz". Sailor Moon Super Spaz! Haha.
That's just animeGAF being animegaf. Maou seems to not give two shits about any of that crap.
For instance, me and mac are discussing Emi's rather craptacular role in Episode 5 but there's still a huge amount of funny moments even in the midst of action sequences, revelations about the other world etc
Yeah, his redeeming qualities more or less died out here. I can't really see how people could claim he's the show's hero.
Full Metal Panic! The Second Raid 10
So this episode, after Wraith, Tessa, Closeau, Mao, and Leonard have had their go at Sousuke (am I forgetting anyone?) AL takes a shot at his character, pointing out that Sousuke's oft repeated mantra that the ARX-7 is a defective weapon is entirely true . . . because Sousuke is a component of the failure. This scene is also AL's introduction, more or less, and while AL is a lot gentler than others, he still points out that Sousuke's problem isn't that he cannot use the Lambda Driver, its that he won't.
We also see in this episode how Sousuke is coping without Kaname. Forget what I said about how Kaname was doing, because comparatively, she's doing great. She took initiative and set out to find things out and survive. Sousuke, on the other hand, has become walking dead, having resigned himself to his fate. He lends credence to the things said about him in this episode by, for once, doing something purely out of malice and spite. It's a small thing,
him grunting in disgust just as he passes Tessa
deserts Mithril.
How else would he know that vampire and magical girl los are alsc rather porar

Red Data Girl Episode 7 My First Time Getting Lost
People really thought much of the episode was dull or something? I thought this was one of the best ones yet, the starting portion continuing off from last episode felt fast paced, intense, and kind of stylish with the half shadow thing going on and Naruto-esque kunai action there, then the Manatsu/Miyuki moments were amazing, hanging on and following each other, playing with each other and what not, wow, way pleasing.

Sad for Manatsu for Tabi, I started tearing up as he detailed his story and philosophy and plans to run away, if he permanently stays in that dimension with Masumi
Could this possibly be about a second season? I mean, that seems to be a matter of "when", not "if".

He's hero because he show all of that to us, the true hero.
Btw he does feel bad to Euphy, but deep down I think its true he don't want the rebellion to end just like that.

Crunchyroll wouldn't know either, and if a second TV season does come it probably won't be until after the already announced film.
It did, briefly, because I'm usually quoting Crunchyroll tweets like that and my brain was working on autopilot. My apologies.
I'm sure they'll license them eventually, but since they're both still a ways off, I don't think the international rights will have even been optioned by AX time though.

You need to watch Episode 23 ASAP. You're covering all the right points here.
As much as I'd like to defend what's essentially one of my favourite anime characters, you raise a lot of good points. You could say that Lelouch is lying to himself as much as he is to the world. The shock of the whole situation was something that he didn't expect. This is what gives him a realistic human personality. Maybe Lelouch was planning something even after he "accepted" Euphemia's proposal. But he never planned something of that magnitude, but it still fit nicely into his plans. The shock of it all scared him, and as a result his mind's initial thoughts deny it with the whole sense of righteousness and "I didn't mean to."
You could describe his character as a demon trying to break through the shell of a normal teenager.
