Wow all my shows, only netoge wasnt delayed?
It was about their potential, not about their power right now. He mentioned that before they even started to fight. And so the praise and everything as well centers mostly about their potential as well.
I get that you don't like it, and you don't have to.
But it always irks me the wrong way when complaints about something are just completely wrong.

Tamako Market
I really enjoyed the tone of this series and how they held that tone throughout the whole thing. The central plot with the Prince was really unnecessary and they could have just focused the series on the great characters of the market and added the bird somehow. Im going to go watch Tamako Love Story really quick and hopefully that adds a missing element to the TV series. The show was seriously pretty though.

They're not the strongest onmyouji in existence or anything near it, it's a potential thing. It's a battle shounen, you can't start the protagonists off as the strongest!

Or not add the bird at all and it would have been 100% better
Ridiculous, the bird was great! I like to imagine that he's the reincarnation of Kayneth from Fate/Zero. They're basically the same person.

Something tells me you'll enjoy Love Story a lot more.
There are certain elements in episode one that hinted at a darker story that could be explored maybe, hopefully...but i doubt itll be anything other than a comedy in the end.
Worse than Sakamoto's?

I switched to this avatar after I watched Wolf Children in theaters. I think about changing it every now and then, but I really love the movie.

No way. The OP is pretty neat.
There's no reused footage in the OP, but most of the action scenes in there are similiar to what happened in episode 1, basically showing off Rokuros and Benios base techniques.
...Which I'd argue is far better then shoving in spoilery stuff about future fights or something. And I agree, some very cool transitions in there.
Kiznaiver and Luluco
Poster is a bit of mess imo. Dunno just looks a bit lazily made to me.
New character looks neat though.
And i think you're spot on as to who it is.

Tamako Love Story
Been killing it with visuals today; soma amazing gifs. Yeah, this was much better than Tamako Market outside of the constant stalling (typical anime, I know). It is definitely best to watch this right after the series so you have a good background into the characters and how they interact. You would be lost if not and would lose a bit of what makes a few of the moments significant. Now, can we get a college/post college anime of these two because I really like the characters in this show. Also, on the Midori thing; they never do properly address her true feelings for Tamako. It is heavily implied back from Market, but they never do go near that yuri bomb. I loved the way they incorporated her fathers story with her mother into this as well.... soo good. Overall, the moments were heartfelt and beautiful and this was a worthwhile watch as a continuation to Tamako Market. Good stuff.
I forgot to include it, but this is the gif that inspired me to watch everything from scratch..
Love the black and white of this.

I dont understand the second paragraph, how can kids that have yet to really train (Rokuro hasnt really been all that active since his accident), and Benio still has some issues, be faulted for being weaker than an person much older and more experienced than them?
Kiznaiver
Re:Zero (the first episde is double length and the first half can be a bit slow, but it's worth it
)Kagewani S2 (it's a 8 min anime, so you can watch season 1 in about 2 hours to catch up)
Joker Game
Bungo Stray Dogs
and maybe Sakamoto if you haven't read the manga
About the GARO movie stuff...

It's a shame that we won't be getting some shows, but damn I hope everything turns out alright for those who got affected by that earthquake.
IS it affecting any shows?
I thought it was just a minor earthquake.. didnt realise it was affecting people
My bad, yeah it was about potential and not them being powerful from the get-go so that makes more sense... guess I just am not into most shounen battle shows anymore so I can't really appreciate them. I basically got stuck at the whole tragic past and great power thing and the anger-based power-ups, so I kind of noped out of the rest of the episode, and the random slapstick humor certainly didn't help things, either.
Forcing two characters with opposite personalities to interact with each other could make for some decent character development and all, and it'd probably take more episodes to see what they do with it, but I don't think I'll be following it week-by-week at all, at least not when I could be clearing my backlog and eventually come back to this show if it ends up looking like a good watch later on.

The Anne Happy OP is the best thing to come out of this season thus far.
Yes, and the Three Leaves, Three Colors OP is right behind it.
This one and Concrete Revolution. MHA's is decent. The rest are either passable or bad.

Netoge 02 - medic git gud
Is there a game that most animeGAFers are playing these days? It would be pretty hype if we were playing together.

If there was a rock looking like this in my town, I wouldn't be celebrating it as a tourist landmark, I'd be paying for it to be towed away.

I'm mostly playing DFOG nowadays. I think other people are probably playing different MMO's and whatnot.
Mawaru Penguindrum - 13
I think I got more confused this episode, haha.
So many questions.

So Himari was safed by... apple juice. Librarian guy is in love with Boushi-sama or something and he is the one who set everything in motion, since he wants the Penguindrum... for something to do with fate?
Redhair announces her next move. Flashback to the aftermath of the incident, pretty sad seeing Kanda completely in disbelief and everything. More revelations about Kandas businesses. So he's literally selling his heart/life it seems.
And where do Tabukis finger scars come from?

This season isn't wasting any time getting back into the overall plot.

Wonder what Kimura is up to. We didn't get a clear shot of his face, but it looks like there's been some mechanical alterations to it.

Netoge engdub will feel like anime club, I cant wait. Also I love how awkward and funny the classroom scene is, poor Rucian.

GranBlue Fantasy has my life under lock right now.
I was lying anyways. Hearthstone has had me locked in its tiny fingers since it was in Beta. :c I can't escape.

I'm playing it super casually here and there out of curiosity. I can't deal with these mobile games though, this game keeps throwing mechanics and stuff to do at every tap. I'll stick to the Division lol. I can wear "what are those" shoes there.

I wasn't expecting the village to be so clearly modern in design. I'm bothered that no one is commenting on the obvious signs of past infrastructure, such as telephone booths and bus stops. They keep saying things like "How could they have built all this themselves?", as if this was the pyramids of ancient Egypt instead of looking like any typical rural Japanese town. It'd be neat if this were leading up to a twist akin to The Village, but the glimpses of flashbacks and the rest stops in the first episode would seem to preclude that.

I think they should show you what the rock actually looks like at the start of next episode. If not, it's in the ED.

Weird request but can anyone help me remember this anime. It aired recently, and I remember some amazing gifs posted in the anime thread. It looked super hero-ish, the scene I remember had this guy transform in an organic way and shoot a crazy light beam.
Not sure if this is new, but you can request vendors to reissue DVDs and Blu-ray's including requesting English subtitles and digital versions on Prime Video on Amazon Japan.
http://www.amazon.co.jp/l/2497387051?_encoding=UTF8&language=en_US
Concrete Revolution ?
One Punch Man ? Maybe you're talking about Genos shooting his laser beam from his arm though I wouldn't call that an organic transformation.
Naah. Not that.
Just that most romance anime never get beyond the initial part of a relationship.

Would that be beneficial to people not in JPN, I dont think amazon prime and accounts are shared between regions

Netoge no Yome ep.2
I had a feeling yandere girl was going to be that way, lol. That conversation between yandere girl, tsundere girl and MC was pretty funny stuff and I like the set-up we have. This is gonna be fun, lol.

From the New World 11
We're back to episode 8 in both tone - less intense - and quality - lively but erratic animation, somewhat spastic but generally solid direction. I know the story wants to show the mental control the leaders of this society have over its youth, but it was still annoying to have a large part of this episode be devoted to the main cast trying to figure out what we just saw in the past three episodes. Mamoru is falling apart though; he's probably going to be gone soon.

Im still watching the Grimgar engdub and was shocked that Ranta voice actor changed suddenly. Im glad they still gave us the episode though and had another VA step in since the regular one was sick, hope he recovers and rerecords lines for the episode Ranta was easily best voice and performance in this engdub, helps balance out some of Manato's thoughts and cluelessness.
