It's way better now.
They've got Gurren Lagann, Madoka Magica, Fate/Zero, Hunter X Hunter, Eureka Seven, and other good shows.

Whenever I come on I always see someone talking about Cross Ange. Should I have watched it? I just never know when people are legitimately enjoying a show or being sarcastic about it
As others have said, it's entertaining. The story is crazy, the characters are douche and it just different, however, it's worth the watch!
So Cajun, elf ears aside, Momoka or Myucel? Go..

My quick impression for the 2 episodes I just watch today is come down into one word, calm. The pacing feel calming and don't feel rush so the audience can understand what is happening in the show. I kinda liking the pacing a bit and also the main character, Yume Kikuchi. She is someone who have a gentle heart and want to please the people she meet from what I see in the 2 episode. This become a big thing when the person who help her in the beginning of the show start to hate for what she did with her magic. She literally go out of her own way to find this person when in reality she can just forget the incident and just go with her own way in life.
As for the plot from what I saw, I am kinda interested as this is kinda take a small twist of magic power and how is been control in the everyday world. Will stick with this to see where it goes.
Liking it so far right now and the story have enough stuff to keep me hanging a bit.
I do own the 2nd season from the RightStuff sales last year. I will most likely watch it after I finish watching this show. I do hope it get interesting. Also, I know this is based on the manga and I like the look of it, do you know what the manga artist is doing now after this work. Just want to see his work as I like the look of it.

This is some Attack on Titan level dragging. Get on with it!

Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit
Why do you do this to me
I will go with Momoka because she is incredibly loyal to a fault.
Myucel is ridiculously adorable though. This is hard.
Im not sure what the manga ka is working on now.
The most baffling thing about Netflix anime is still how FMA Brotherhood is still not complete on there. It's been missing the final set of episodes for like 3 years.

150,417　150,417　Kekkai Sensen OP "Hello,world!" by Bump of Chicken (incl. in "Hello,world! / Colony")
I knew Bump of Chicken were popular but damn this Opening song sold a lot. This is probably my first time seeing a anime OP song sell this much. Now I'm curious if there has been any other OP that sold close or more than the former.

Im pretty certain that some OP songs have been massive hits.
I dont have any numbers to prove one way or another though.

Let me put it this way:
I have never seen an anime so bad, yet so enthralling. It managed to hold my interests until the very end, even though it was aggressively terrible. You should definitely check it out, at least.

But that great magic and super innocent smile Myucel has?.?
the key with shows like that is that they honestly try to play it straight, and take scenarios seriously enough that the narrative is well animated and produced, but still hilariously off.
Code Geass absolutely mastered this effect and we have been long searching for a new high.
Honestly, we should cross out some garbage on The List and replace it with those. Those are in the true spirit of it.

Move the damn boulder, idiot.
(I don't think I agree with the setups the show is organizing, but I guess we'll see.)

why do you say that?
Oh for sure man. I definitely appreciated the other pairings they had going, but Nagato x Mutsu was my most anticipated one.

Everyone Squees or ban
Nope, Netflix ends at episode 52, and it's been like this for awhile. You'll see it constantly mentioned in the reviews.
Of course, it's soon going to be mute as the expiration is listed for May 13th.

I have a bad feeling on how this will end.
(And maybe I have my yuri goggles on too tight, but I guess Ami and Minorin could work.)

Cajun pls ;_;
Toradora did a great job pointing out, as a parable, that the one you love isn't necessarily the one you had fuzzy feelings for. Its the one you feel most comfortable with, plus that makes relationships much easier since you are already comfortable being completely and utterly honest with the other person. This isn't for all cases but Toradora does a great job showing it!

Toradora - Finale
Well, that worked out.
Well, that worked out.
Really was expecting an upset after all that eloping happiness. Cute ending.
Still don't really agree with Taiga and Ryuji casually tossing away their crushes like that. I thought they made better friends than lovers, but oh well. They seemed happy. Can't say they aren't a cute pairing.
I thought they would've at least had Ryuji be with Minorin briefly, then it not working out somehow(which I could see).

Finally dammit, I've been waiting impatiently..
Did it work out though? Where's the outrage?
why the fuck did she leave? That episode should have ended with her coming back to Ryuuji's house for dinner, but no, she moves away and goes to a different school and leaves him behind? I was enraged when that happened. Did she go away to re-establish her family life so they could get married, like they talked about after deciding not to elope after all? She was hiding, which means she didn't want to be found, right? Which is it a happy ending or a bad ending for the two love birds? Also, Ami is the only one who knew everything that was going to happen the whole time...

I thought it was setting up for a sad ending, but she came back, so it's all good.
As best as I can figure, she wanted to clear her head. At least I feel like Ryuji really did care for her, unlike that nonsense in Oreimo. (I'm the only one who thinks that was the MC pretending to love her, far as I can tell.)
I guess that means shipping wars for the rest of the cast. I guess not-Morishige will go find his girl in America and, well, yuri goggles ahoy.

I think there is a novel on the after story of all of this. Don't quote me on that though, ask the much more informed animegaf.
You're beginning to scratch the surface of how crazy this show is.
Squee!

They left it so inconclusive that you really have no idea what that last scene was. Look at my post from last week, I was honestly pissed off at it because up to that dinner scene, it would have been the absolute perfect ending right there.
The kissing scene at the grandparent's house was well done as well.
I was there was an authors introspective out there about what he was trying to do with the ending.
Can we rub ears instead? *rubs ears*

I need to rewatch Toradora! but I do remember being really pissed off when Taiga and Ryuji took
I just hated Taiga.
Minori's life savings to go elope or something. Like fuck you Taiga you're rich and shit dont take your best friend's money after you took the guy she liked too.
Well... You could always check out Kanon 2006 if you liked Clannad
I think I gave Kanon a try a few years back but I dropped it for some reason. Maybe I should revisit it.
I'll pick up Hyouka
As for Kanon, see my statement above.First time I've heard of Your Lie in April and I thought it's gonna be some psychological thriller but it was a music anime after all. I have negative impressions of music anime (I think it was because of La Corda d Oro something) for some reason but maybe I should try once again. Thanks
I'm actually following the manga. I feel like there's no progress in terms of the story but I had a lot of fun reading it due to the comedy. I'll add it to my list. Thanks.
I tried to read the manga but I was turned off by the main character's appearance.
I think I saw worse in the others I've read but I couldn't bring myself to read it.
If I'm correct, that is Tonari no kaibutsu-kun right? I actually finished watching it and felt that it was good. Maybe I should try Kimi no Todoke in anime form.
I think I've watched this when I was younger. This was about a girl in coma (Midori) that somehow appeared in the MC's (Seiji) hand right? I enjoyed it for what it is. If I remember correctly,
Midori wakes up in the end and they meet and that's it right?

Takeo jumping out of a burned building like a boss.
I love how he calmly ignore getting his back burned while hugging Yamato. Suna being a bro calmly try to extinguish Takeo fire while everyone around them crying instead of helping.

I don't know if it's the frequent use of bright white against crushed blacks or the nightmare sequence or the way the characters will frequently talk in a whisper mid-sentence
But something seems sinister about this.
