Spice and Wolf 01

Hm, wasn't a bad first episode. While the setting didn't grab me, I am at least liking what was shown of Lawrence and Holo.

It is definitely different from what backlog shows I have been watching, so at least it is a breath of fresh and non ugly air.

Wow! Shockingly good. I really hope they don't mess this up. So much great atmosphere with them just walking around. I love it.

What the? Yeah I get it, my avatar is Akari HA DE HA HA, doesn't mean you leave out almost all my responses to the survey Arti-kun. And I know you got them because you messed up and put some in your final post.

Cruel Angels Thesis is the greatest opening song in all of anime. Even better thanCowboy Bebops.
I think the Eva OP is one of, if not, the greatest openings, but only coupled with it's visuals. Best OP song? I'd have to think about that.

Actually, I never made a favorite OP list from earlier. Maybe I'll just do that.

I'm not sure how they're more tasteful, or good to swim in.

The clothing sells the notion that it's revealing for cultural reasons, like an Indian saree.
except for Bellows, she's pure fanservice

Its cute but its a bit revealing though for a young girl.

It's one of my favorites, but I think that the synth portions have aged a little poorly.

I really do prefer it when this is a show about nothing, or rather, when it's about the conflict of cultures rather than actual dramatic conflict.

wonzo will be happy with this episode.
That ending, though... Goddamn. It was about time. So much shounen and optimism. I was actually getting a bit hopeful there!
No subtext at all, nope.

Araragi is a creeper. "I'm sorry I gave you the wrong idea" WHAT DID YOU EXPECT WITH THAT KIND OF APPROACH!?

Really really good stuff, great slice of life with just a touch of mystery in Ledo's past to really make this series addicting. How old are the characters supposed to be? Ledo looks like he's 17-18 and Amy looks like she's 14-15 but they're supposed to be about the same age.

Every time I see her she is shoving bread into someone's mouth. What the hell is her problem?

Well this is anime so they're probably both around 12.

How did you know one of my otps...

Any time two characters hate each other they'll be shipped, it's just a rule of the internet. Although more than one OTP seems like a paradox to me...

That's fairly accurate, but I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing. It's just indicative of the era that it's from.

It's not I guess, I just don't like the song; the vocals and bad synth effects seem so cheesy to me. The visuals are pretty good though.

Although more than one OTP seems like a paradox to me...

OTP I think pertains just to a certain character. Where as character A could be shipped with character B, C or D, people will champion the pairing, say A with C as their One True Pairing. And perhaps B and D are shippable, so they could be the OTP for those characters.

I think that's how it goes.

Maturity, bitches.
My Internet was playing up today so I've only read from page 23. If there is something you desperately want me to see then tell me, otherwise it's history.

Pizza Hut is all an essential part of the Code Geass experience.
Well I guess in that case I'll give the show a miss. Pizza Hut is sick with a crust.

Also, did anybody else notice the OP changes?
Oh Good Lord it's Psycho Pass all over again!

Attack of Titan 4

The twin-tailed, black-haired girl who joins the Recon Corps with them is pretty cute. Hopefully, the next episode is intense and well-animated!
Should I be worried that she just appeared out of nowhere and was given no name. That's usually a bad sign.

There's something very wrong with these faces. (and the fact that Crunchyroll is actually charging money for this awful poster)
I assume those in the market for such a poster have already seen the show and thus don't don't need to be told where they can check it out. novid warned us. This is just the beginning.

There is also Earl Grey, the ex-captain of Glorianna who was a fan of the British Cruiser tanks unlike Darjeeling who is more into Infantry tanks.
I can't wait to see her underlings, P.G. Tip and Tetley.

I'm a little girl at heart. Possibly mind too.
I should have put down "You can pretend to be a little girl and no one will bat an eye lid" as one of the great things about this place.

Don't forget Im@s, where Iori~ is queen!
Odd way to spell Haruka.

This is the guy who drank a warm Capri Sun because the heat specifically came from a girl's ass warmth. None of this should come as a surprise.
 
More pick-up posts!

I enjoy the recommendations provided by Anime-GAF.

Corny one liners, 4chan or whatever memes, unfunny pics are depressingly awful.
Please more shipping discussion and awesome fanarts.

Preference for DTL posts

I prefer lighthearted posts that have fun

Recent pickups (ed. note: assumed like)

I thought more pick-up posts are nice, only like five or six people do it, unless alot of the people here dont actually buy anime and other merchandise, I guess. The actual pick up thread out there seems too unspecific, I thought or at least in my time of browsing it once a year.

Otherwise I guess I agree with all those points, I guess, the posts that are often more enjoyable and entertaining to read while I scroll through the thread.

Recommendations are helpful, I still have Haruhi movie, Wolf's Rain, Utena, continuing through Oofuri, Sengoku Basara, Hikaru no Go, Outlaw Star to go through.

I have a preference for posts that point out yuri in shows that I may be missing out on. Posts that shit on females just because they don't have a dick though are garbage.

We must read different animegaf threads, as Ive never seen people post such things about characters like that.

I think that's how it goes.

I can understand it with different people championing their own personal OTP, but one person champion multiples is practically a harem.

Let me help you a little.

its more tasteful than the usual 15 year old anime girl attire.
Her outfit gives off a cultural tribal vibe.

I don't really like the Eva OP all that much to be honest. It's so '90s.

that is the greatest thing about it! 90's themes were just the best!

no Birdy the Mighty decode?!

I guess they aren't Sakugabros either.

So much better than last week. No shitty pirates in sight. It was great to learn more about the fleet and Ledo himself. He's a great protagonist and his unique perspective keeps him from being just another generic teen pilot. Hopefully there's more of this and the terrible pirates never return, create a better enemy clan instead.

Hataraku Maou-sama 4

Didn't like how the conflict between them ended quite abrubtly after Chi and Alsiel appeared and should have been resolved better instead of worrying about Chi running off.
Don't get mad because Maou knows what's really important
 
I should at least finish what I started with these.
