it's a real shame about everything else in the show
Sadly I did watch Nabari. The art was indeed nice but I couldn't stand anything else.
If only the Dark Kingdom realized how insane their market penetration is.
Status effect, man, status effect.

It's like Big Brother but good.
Sword Art Online
Wait, I thought we were meant to be seeing the real faces now. Why do half of them still look like an RPG avatar? And "beater" has to be a worst way to call someone a "wanker". He even took pride in this fact. The most mild mannered MMO of all time. And not even a Leroy Jenkins reference.
K-On Connect
A bit better than last time. Couldn't help but feel if this was set in a British all boys school the show wouldn't have already ended after
No surprise that the computer buff is the best character.

they bundled and stomped the alien lifeforce into submission. No fancy kung-fu can dodge a group of boys just pushing you into the ground.

I almost thought that said something else.
My thoughts exactly
I guess seeing each other in real time would make you reconsider flinging insults around
but man, there are more anime tropes than mmo tropes as of right now
Im sure you did.
Surprised I never commented on this Union Flag appearance. Who knew that they had such a fetish for a lovely little flag.
The system is working!
I agree. Should have just forced him to have the potion even he he had to break it over his head and let the juices flow. Not even taking advantage of the Mother scrolling HP system. (but it's nice to see that system get some love)
It's rather well done commentary on our modern day consumerist culture. Impressive for a kids show.
I can understand that and all but there's just gotta be something more to it than being a fog generator. Maybe... it doubles up as a human fire sprinkler!?!
Something more along the lines of water bending will have to wait.

that op makes me sad. a 2 person romance that could literally take on the gods could work. But I can see half the show filled with harem antics.
And I believe ms italy. If 1 kiss can kill a god, how much more can you expect out of a soul mate :/

Kara no Kyōkai: The Garden of Sinners has many characters addicted to coffee, specially Aozaki. You can use that as well... and hasn't moonspeak given you examples? He is an expert on beverage sipping.
He can't hear you! Enjoying right now the wonders of the 'sanfermines' ('pamplonicas', of course). If he survives the party, his liver will probably not for much longer.
Bride of Deimos - The Orchid Suite OVA
SO MUCH SHOUJO WIND.
Melodramatic Shoujo Horror describes this short OVA pretty well. So, apparently this is taken from a random chapter of the Bride Of Deimos manga, which is pretty episodic anyway, so there isn't much or any backstory at all put into it. Deimos and Venus only show up in the beginning being sad and mysterious and stuff. It's just some story about two incest-ic brothers who like orchids and killing people and some girl who comes and screws their shit up.
But who cares about that!? I watched this for the shoujo visuals and the melodrama and it sure as hell delivered. It had a phenomenally 80s synthwave soundtrack too.
I'm sure Emunoz and/or icarus would like this...

The kiss can kill a god? I thought it was the sword?
anime monologue has to be accompanied by inexplicable wind source
almost as if there was a guy on the side with a large fan waiting to blow some air
Maybe there is and its just forbidden to show him?
Maybe it's F2P since that is the future of gaming as we all know. Good looking items cost money and since they are all currently in a coma they can't access their credit cards. Because if this was a monthly subscription game you'd just need to cancel the direct debit and be forced kicked out of the game for not paying up and we can't have another silly little detail like that being ignored.
What about fuck you songs?
It's like an old arcade game and it just recycles the levels after a certain point. Also palette swaps.
Died to the first boss. What a loser.
They are virtual wounds. Damage doesn't affect the real body. Once you hit 0HP then the game kills you. Before then you are a-OK in real life.

I think the kiss lead to the sword that killed god, or something. I'm honestly not really sure what is going on in the show.
There is potential for cool fight scenarios if everyone has their own mix of the 7 abilities or so.
You'll be back up there. Just you wait.
Now THAT is something right there.

That magic girl henshin, was sexy, trippy, matrix ish, and tentacles. Love it.
I do love how war has little tension in this show. A good change in pace. A lot of neat looking spell effects as well. Good stuff.

What sound effect is this? That's not a very telling description of it.
n/m I see you linked it.
I really like that sound! Its hawaii.
Ive heard it a few times too
The guy was
already "dead", the dead guy reject the potion because that just wasting item
And geez, nothing wrong anime chara looks like anime chara.. you guys really expecting they looks all ugly? no bishie? dude... there was many stupid shit in this, but this one pretty silly to complain.
yes
to clarify: anime characters revealed to look like.... anime characters, is not an entertaining nor endearing twist
and man, must be a pretty boring MMO if the only race you can play is human swordsman
Plenty of times
Gunshots/sword clash.etc Now all I need to hear is a wilhelm scream in an anime.
I assuming the gear was expensive enough, no rich spoiled kid (n they usually looks good) playing this? some boyband member like Arashi to Zelda promoting the game? etc.
And most of them is fugly anyway...
I don't understand what you said but how are they fugly?
there was like one fat guy and the rest have flawless complexions
hell the girls we see are all perfect too
Move over Yuru Yuri, this is the real deal.
most of them bland as shit, there is like one guy that looks good (the leader) that its.
how the hell that is flawless?
Japanese animator do not draw ugly (ugly chara design, yes) girl tho.
They sure are getting things done quickly this season.
Its good stuff to look forward to. You know, if you're into that kind of thing.
And who isnt

It's not that all MMORPG players are disgusting little midgets like our hero in Accel World.
but they are 12 years old or something. Not my cup of tea.
but they are 12 years old or something. Not my cup of tea.
choosing the most off model screencap possible? hah
the blandness is more to do with the fact that they are not important characters
If they made the anime like Ressentiment, then it wouldn't be easy to market.
She was just misunderstood. She didn't know any better.
but wouldn't it be more entertaining if they had bags under their eyes from lack of sleep, or terrible acne from eating lots of potato chips?
Madoka is in her 3rd year highschool not middle school.
Were you aware while you were watching that you were witnessing a filler arc within a filler arc? Good old Bleach.
