Only thing I know about Code Geass is the MCs name is Lelouch. that's enough to make me hate him. I can put up with L-Elf but man...
I know but I can still dream.
I know but I can still dream.
I would kickstart the hell out of this.
So... Rolo.
ROFL. Nah. L-Elf is actually Xingke in his rebellious phase. He dyed his hair white and decided to go emo on everyone.
I like it, it's going for something a bit different with its cast of failures trying to live up to expectations thrust upon them. Plus drunk women yaaaay
Fixed for truth.
Let it grow!
Here's the OT as well.
God, Defuser, why'd you have to ruin my thread? I want to cry every time I enter.
Not really, I will remember the days I marathon thing with my cousin, so fun..
Oh God I like something DTL likes? Is that even possible? I'm pretty sure I've hated on everything the poor guy likes so far. This can't be right.
Majestic Prince 4
She gainaxed for no reason. All Tamaki is is a blob of tits and ass and stupid blob facial expressions. Tamaki is the worst thing. Even worse than Chief, who looks somehow even MORE ridiculous in a shirt that doesn't show off her absurd cleavage. Also PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD STOP DOING THE FIVE REACT AS ONE THING. I mean does everything that is said by one of the kids require not only that all four react SIMULTANEOUSLY but that the actor immediately react to the reactions to his action? Blaaaah. I just have to keep reminding myself that it is only the 4th episode.
Rin-rin is an annoying nickname. Chief is apparently keeping her oversized breasts from exploding out of her shirt with a piece of string. Her face looks marginally better in this episode, though. OH MY GOD ALL TAMAKI HAS TO DO IS SIT UP AND HER BREASTS BOUNCE FOR LIKE THIRTY SECONDS INDEPENDENTLY.
I can't put my finger on why Tamaki's :chet is awful and Yoko's was not. Maybe because I was under the impression Yoko was at least 5 years older than she apparently was. Maybe because Yoko had more to her character than this.
Maybe because I'm just plain biased against Hirai. "Sometimes, I have dreams." WOW YOU DON'T SAY. Randy looks like a grown man. The heck.
I guess I never listed my favorite OPs and EDs so I'll just be fashionably late as always.

MJP 4
Y'know, I really want to like this show after the great first episode but every single episode after it has pretty much sucked the whatever goodwill I have left for the shoe out of me. The CG mecha battles (as infrequent as it is) are cool to watch but everything else feels so half-arsed that I just can't bring myself to care about this show anymore. maybe It'll get good again and I'll pick it back up but for now this thing is dropped like the face of an oblivion character.

Are you Kirito or something?
No, I just thought that endlessly dragging out a show just to beat it up even when it's not part of the main conversation was a bit excessive even for this thread.
In retrospect, about five minutes after I posted that response, I had realized that going against the natural hate flow of this thread is like trying to swim up a mile-high waterfall, but it was too late to take it back anyway.
Valvrave 3
Really? Did I need to see the otaku kid snuggling his naked animu woman pillow? Do you really want me to believe that mankind has advanced to having giant robots and space colonies galore, but not weeded out this fad? WHY.
I liked it better when
It's kind of unsettling for Haruto to return to being a loved high school kid and status quo and all when
You know, can you even call it a mecha anime if it doesn't have a gratuitous shower or bath scene somewhere? And in the future all teenage girls are voluptuous, you see, and not in the least bit self conscious about their bodies. Mr. Kimura would die and go to heaven if he knew.
Haruto is clearly a vampire. Except instead of garlic as a weakness, it's called getting Bright Slapped. 800 years of internet and Rainbow is still a valid username? Okay.
700 million instant and not at all actual friends. When does this all blow up in his face? Is this gonna be a story about how fame and fortune ruin him? Is this about what Hollywood does to young, aspiring mecha pilots? WHY DO TWO OF THIS SEASON'S MECHA ANIME SHOWS DEAL WITH GETTING INTERNET FAMOUS?
I ask the hard questions for you.
I can't tell if I just hate L-Elf, or if his awful has changed my opinion about the show in general.

Shoko was dead.
several hours ago he shot people in the head because he thought Shoko was dead. Like, this is Flit Asuno levels of not showing the hero the consequences of his evils. Pretty stark contrast to say, Amuro, who freaked out after killing people.

But he's the best part of the show.
He's terrible in every conceivable way. His team is the only imaginably worse part of the show than himself. Can't stand him. And I'm severely disappointed that
they still haven't addressed Haruto's "resignation" in any significant way yet.
But mostly I freaking hate L-Elf. Like seriously.
Regulus Tera
Romanes Eunt Domus
This episode made me tear up. ;_;
Watch out for those delicious Studio Pablo backgrounds.
I'm sure it's the sort of thing that, sooner or later, will come back to bite him (bad pun intended).
In the meanwhile, he's just going along with what others tell him to do and even playing the hero as if nothing were wrong.

No, that's still Heartcatch 48.
It's an Olivier movie. This would usually work against the movie's favour except that they totally made Olivier character's believable in the context of the Precure team of the year. Also STUDIO PABLO.

I didn't even want to force myself to finish it fast but there's a new goal for me to reach.
EDs:
Umineko
Sankarea
Paradise Kiss
The Tatami Galaxy
Hyouka
Shin Sekai Yori
Madoka
Humanity Has Declined
A lot harder to make this list.

I just don't get why you take even the smallest slight against SAO so personally.

The hero we deserve.
No Haibane? smh.
I like the song but in the end it's just Rakka spinning around.
I have no problem anymore with SAO criticism as a reaction to something else about the show; if someone new to the thread posted their impressions on it, I wouldn't bat an eye at three pages of "SAO sucks" comments in response to it. I just don't see the need for cajun (or anyone else, really) to keep bashing on it at the slightest unrelated provocation, like it's a compulsive need to remind others how much you hate the show. But that probably comes from my ongoing disconnect with the culture-at-large in the thread.
Anyway, I'm just going to stop here and let you have the last word after this or whatever so I don't already start to skyrocket my post count. I need to go rest before the KyoAni thing anyway.
I'm just surprised there've been NO repercussions for it whatsoever yet. Then again, we're only a few episodes in.
Code Pizza Hut 4
Regulus Tera

The Heartcatch final arc is one of the best magical girl things ever conceived. Those last four episodes are pure gold.

With how the movie turned out, and everything up until episode 41, I would not be surprised.
Lets see. I guess this could go down as a 2/2/4 split ending on Sunday, or 4/4 split to finish on Saturday, and being elated for some time until I deal with Friendship Issues Precure and Smile MoronCure.

This has been really great. I've yet to skip it a single time, 14 episodes in.
Agreed. The gimmick is getting old, and Medaka Box is over now.
I don't like it when you post this way, wonzo. Whatever your intentions were, dragging unrelated stuff from other threads into here completely unprompted just shits the thread up with drama. It's not acceptable on the rest of the board, and it shouldn't be acceptable here.
Stop bullying posters you don't like.
You're only going to see it a couple more times, unfortunately.
So I would be Geass?
This is certainly a cool project! Reinterpretations of Osamu Tezuka characters from famous illustrators in a exposition to be held at next COMITIA, along original designs (to be used for comparisons) from The Master himself... best thing is a book release is planned for this!
Hataraku Maou-sama 2-4
Some unnecessary anime bullshit aside, this show is pretty entertaining. The characters feel fresh even if they're not really major deviations from known archetypes. I hope Emi doesn't gradually become yet another bipolar character; if we need tsundere antics, at least let her be the old-fashioned type who matures and changes her attitude throughout the series.
Don't care for all the
stuff we are obviously going to get. It drags the thing down, and I'd like it better if all the fantasy stuff were irrelevant; Hopefully it never becomes major, but I'm kinda resigned.
The best thing so far for me has been the interaction between Maou and the rest of the cast. I also like Alsiel and hope he gets some meaty focus later on. Also Chiho>Emi, but she's not bad so far. Surprisingly enough emotional range, more than I expect from a romcom like this anyway.
Bad shit:
Why are the OP scenes so saturated? It looks like a fucking Tumblr gif compilation.

Lucifer. He's already a terrible character and he'll bring bad stuff to the plot coupled with probably mediocre action scenes nobody will care for.
Yes, I know. That could come up again when he actually meets the people behind the robot or simply finds out more about it in general.
This reminds me Final Fantasy IV and Code Geass do have a few things in common (good and bad). Not to mention I'm still a totally unrepentant fanboy for the game after all these years.
Shit, I take a nap and there's already a new thread with 400 posts. That's why I'll never make the wall of shame I guess!
Just watched Valvrave 3 and had a way better time than last week. This is the kind of craziness I was expecting coming in! Now if Haruto would stop being such a... uh, whatever his non-existent person is.
On another note, I stumbled on Hataraku Mao-sama on TV yesterday night (episode 4) and it made me check the first three episode today. I had a surprisingly good time and some real good laughs, but I hope it won't go too serious, actually :x
Next, I need to check Gargantia, which is the only of this season three mecha shows I haven't tried yet!
edit> Bottom of the page, nooooo.
