Cowboy Bebop 04

I was gasping and yelling at the screen the whole time Spike was playing with that thing. When he took his gun out I nearly lost it. The hyperspace interaction bit at the end was weird but it's sci-fi so I'll just shrug its plausibility off. Faye is great once again, hopefully she becomes part of the main cast soon.

Is it straight garbage with lots of fanservice? Or decent?


Any good?

Do not watch it. Just don't. Only if you're compelled by evil robots should you even attempt it.
It is on CR but I'm not going to link it here.

So the sister one is for him only and it's garbage, got it..
hell no on that "ino" crap, I'm not that cruel and he's not that twisted a person, lol.


It is on CR, but yes, you should not pass that along.

Also Golden Boy is amazing.

Got it, I won't.

Is Golden Boy, legit good?
 
Theres another show with watersports called Juden chan but at least it is really cute otherwise and watchable.
Lots of watersports in that on in addition to all the other ecchi stuff going on.

But I agree its watchable if you're a person who likes or doesn't mind ecchi.

I haven't seen it yet, but people really like it here.

Watch it dubbed though.

On another note, have you seen Accel World? If you like SAO, then I think you'd really enjoy that. It's even from the same author!

I've heard the whole series pretty good, but I only saw S1 because it's available on the official website for the anime. Like pig avatar, lol. I haven't seen the rest of it being steamed anywhere else though.

The whole show is available on Hulu.

EDIT: Oh wait, did you watch all 24 episodes? I thought you were referring to only the first half of the show, lol.

There is only one season of Accel World as of now. More material in the LNs as usual, but only one season animated.
 
Punchline Episode 5

Please dont die ito.

Still one of the most interesting narratives of the season. Actually one of the few shows this season that keeps be glued to the screen as much as buddyfight, seraph of the end, cfvanguard g, and yugioh arc-v keep me. Definitely will rewatch it all in one go once it ends.

I love that Cinnamon and also Yutas plan.

I really love that Spike can richochet wildly between 'absurdly competent cool action guy' and 'goofy lug', often within the same scene

I guess i need another healing anime after Yama no Susume, any suggestions? Already watched Non Non Biyori s1 which was the closest.

I hear Usagi Drop is pretty decent. Barakmon also? I'm limited mainly to Crunchy, maybe Netflix.

Oh man, the lyrics for this almost drove me insane.

Nothing tops this remix of the intro tho.

Welcome to AnimeGAF, may I take your order?

Unfortunately, yuri goggles are completely unnecessary in this day and age, so we don't offer them anymore. Sorry for the inconvenience.

I wouldn't worry about it. I haven't read the LN, but I think they'll keep Reina's (obvious) crush on Taki sensei to a minimum. It's just a gut feeling of mine.

Sources on both PLEASE!


Dat ass? I don't know to be sure...


DUDE SERIOUSLY?!?!?!?! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I NEED FMP IN MY LIFE AGAIN!

It's time to introduce Cornbread to ImoCho.

I thought everyone hated that show? I dropped it after the first few minutes just like ISUCA cause of how bad it was.

Cowboy Bebop 05

What was this? Am I in heaven? The music, the cinematography, the choreography. Incredible. Vicious was a little stereotypical anime bad guy but the episode as a whole was fantastic.

You just started watching cowboy bebop? You are gonna be in for a fucking ride.

Sources on both PLEASE!

The first anime is Re-Kan


It's about a girl who can see ghosts, her tsundere friend and some randos nobody really cares about. Basically, the MC definitely wants a piece of that tsundere pie, and everyone (dad, ghosts, cat, etc) seems to ship them together.

It's decent.

The second anime is Show By Rock


It's... well, really difficult to describe. I guess it's about four animal-themed girls who form a rock band in a magical music city, but doesn't do much to accurately describe it. Best to just watch the first episode, because it basically speaks for itself. The twin-tails girl has the hots for the MC btw.

I like it, but your mileage may vary on this one.

Punchline:
5 eps are out and I thought I'd ask, how is this show animation-wise? Was the sakuga as frontloaded as some expected?

Also...

Watch Barakamon if you can, such a great heartwarming anime. Plus all the children in the anime are actually voiced by actual children.

I just saw the very first episode with the little pig avatar, then his new avarar, and the girl he meets at school, etc. It is available on the official website.

Crap, I just watched Clannad on Hulu, and I didn't even think to check for Accel World there.

Fuck, too much anime. I have to watch Euphonium too... What's Etotama about again? I thought both were the same since they involved cats lol


Watch Etotama! It's not great at anything, but it such a damn fun show to watch. Cajun approved I believe, lol. Fun, frantic, fast and cute.

Oh, there is a cat, dog, sheep, bird, rat, horse, snake etc.

This was really fun, especially for those with a weakness for mecha. It's a superb homage to 90s mecha OVAs and movies, done in the style of a pilot film. Non-linear editing, packed to the brim with cool scenes, flashbacks, one-liners filled with jargon, etc. Great designs, great animation, great backgrounds, doesn't make a whole lot of sense, great to look at.

Reminded me a ton of the Five Star Stories movie. Lol.

Yes, you should. Make sure to watch the Japanese version with English subtitles, as the English dub of Digimon is one of the worst ever created.

The original Adventure holds up quite well and is one of the best kids shows of its time. The best watch order would be Adventure (movie) - Adventure (series) - Our War Game. The sequel, Adventure 02, can be skipped unless you really want to brave it.

Also at the very least watch Digimon Tamers and Savers (both are stand alone). They're both excellent shows.

That's kind of a hard question. Digimon was an above average toy commercial with some occasional great episodes (namely Mamoru Hosoda's episode). Whether or not you find that to be worth your time in 2015 is really up to you. I'd recommend at least checking it out to see how you feel, ideally in the uncut Japanese.

The only things that I can say are truly worthy of anyone's time is the Hosoda episode and the movie he directed.

Watch Digimon Tamers and Data Squad. Skip the rest.


It's a bit late, but thank you guys!

I'll probably go with Adventure 1->Hosoda movie->Tamers. Maybe I'll watch something else from the series later. Frontier, Savers and Xros Wars look pretty meh, so most likely I won't even bother with them. Adventure 2 too, I guess it'll be retconned with Tri?

Kill la Kill ep.7
Alright, now we're talking Mako, I want more of that look, lol. Seriously though, really good episode since it showed some emotion for once, it (story) made sense, and it opens your eyes more to the way the school hierarchy works. Did I mention Mako was awesome in this one? Excellant.

Who knows if 02 will be retconned or not, but I'm guessing not.

As far as Savers goes, I personally think it's pretty strong. It starts out a little slow, but after it finds its footing it's a pretty enjoyable series with a pretty engaging plot. I'd recommend it after Adventure and Tamers.

Frontier is completely skippable. (Fuck that show)

Hmmm... Well, I'll consider watching Savers later too, then. Thanks again!

Man Ninja Slayer is getting better and better with every episode. Are my Yuri goggles on too tight or are Koki and Asari kinda a bit close for friends (as they said)? Also *ahem*... YEEEAAART!

I want that crab they had in the Karaoke Bar :(
 
Also Cornbread, I forgot to mention... this was my reaction every time you got further in Clannad. I imagine this is going to be your reaction watching other people watching the show for the first time too...

From the New World 01

Non-linear story telling hmm... The premise seems interesting enough but I'm not sure about the art style. The mythos scene was interesting from an artistic standpoint.

Lol, I can imagine. Such a ride. I'm actually really glad I was able to marathon those last episodes together for the best effect as well leaving all those feels lingering would have been rough. There is another Gaffer that just finished 1-5, so it will be fun reading him going through it as I did. I'm going to hsve to give Kanon a shot soon as well now, lol. Thanks again.


See:
Clannad episode 9
Man the feels are creeping up already and I'm still so early in the show.

Let us all remember Fuko-chan. :'(

All in the ebs and flows of life man.
Ok, she is awesome and cute, a Cajun special! never forget.

Damn, I almost said the wrong thing, I have to be careful, lol.

Oh man, you're just now watching this one? This one is so deep in so many directions and you are still learning until the end. It's really well written as you can tell. Music is really good too!

I cannot stress how important the bolded is. It is very important that you watch the last several episodes so that way everything is fresh in your mind and it can keep building the great ending.

Man I should really rewatch some Key shows again. Air, Kanon, Clannad, Little Busters, Angel Beats... and pretty soon Charlotte. :,)

Yup this gaffer would be me aha. Been watching anime for quite a while but never watched Clannad, I'm working on changing that thanks to our friend Cornbread78 and the journey that he shared with us all. This show is going to play with my heart. I just know it... Aside from that, so far:

I'm really glad that I can marathon this, so far it's been great! Of the ones you mentioned, I've only watched Angel Beats, and good god was that one amazing. I may have to check out their other works after I finish Clannad.

I thought I'd try to make a dent in my backlog today. I have the From the New World Blu-ray sitting next to my Bebop so I figured I'd give it a shot.

Second. Pls give names ;_;

These animations are just beautiful... WHY CAN'T WE HAVE NICE THINGS LIKE WE DID IN THE 90'S?!?!?! IS EVERYTHING TURNING INTO A BURNING HEAP OF CRAPPY 3-D MODELS AND NO ONE PUTTING EFFORTS INTO FRAMES ANYMORE?! I can see why people don't feel like watching anime anymore since the 90's was the peak for it. Now its just shitty animations and people trying to hop on the idol train.
