I don't disprove, but Makoto takes priority in my heart.
Honestly I don't disapprove of choosing any of them, because they are all fucking awesome characters.
Because she's taken?I would disprove of Usagi

aaand naturally the only way to end this show is to throw every single girl in the whole show into an open air bath.
Bluray release is odd, no fog of war, yet no nipples or anything. Watching mannequins talk about mahjong is quite odd.
Anyhow, been a fascinating ride of yuri, love, drama, (some mahjong), and more yuri. Good stuff.

It's baffling cajun hasn't watched this yet. It's totally his thing, in so many ways.
I don't see why that would stand in someones way. It might even be more of a motivation to some here. I actually just find her a tad infuriating.
I would disprove of Usagi
Ok, you have a point with Usagi, but some people like the dumb idiot type I guess. She annoys the hell out of me personally. But her friends <3
Well, its on my list if that helps.
Show definitely got my attention.
I like Mahjong too. It does seem to be extremely :cajun
3D Usagi? Sure. 2D Usagi? Not so bad.
Binbougami - Episode 2
I liked this episode way more than the first way. The gags were funnier and the direction on a whole was much more energetic. The parodies are pretty diverse, which makes it much more fun too. The fight at the end was pretty hilarious, and I -love- the way it ended. Totally random but *so good*. I hope the series keeps up this pace. After all, they seem self-aware that it is a 1-cour show, so they should step it up! The post-credits gags are pretty great too. Lol.
This shot is awesome:

True, but "not so bad" pales in comparison to Makoto. Self sufficient (Regardless of where her money comes from), can cook, plays video games, is a statuesque beauty!
Anime Makoto definitely. RL Ami has my heart though.
Same way I felt.
The whole unable to let go angle doesn't do her any favors!
What's up Envelope, I hope you're not forgetting that 10 more episodes of One Piece await you!
Everything in its proper order, my friend.
Is Kon not everyone with taste's favorite?

Looks and sounds like a darker Blue Exorcist! Mehish.
For all we know she could be secretly married and supported by her estranged husband's family, or she could be a prostitute.

I've seen Saki, but not this. Based on this detailed and well written review I must remedy this immediately.

24 episodes in Monster, getting really interesting now.
Why is she not your favorite?
Well I'm glad it clicked for you. And I'm also glad you didn't take my advice.24 episodes in Monster, getting really interesting now.

Jeez, the whole industry sounds fucked. People buying more anime is not going to fix anything. No point in fueling a machine that needs to be scrapped and redesigned. However, assuming KyoAni and some of the other top companies are run much, much better, they at least deserve sales.
Power Stone 1-26
Well, that was fun.
I think I watched this at the best possible time, because none of the obvious flaws this show has have bothered me. I enjoyed the Saturday morning cartoon feel of it and the only thing I really wish was improved was the animation. If it was a bit better I think the fights could've looked pretty neat. The premise of having these superhero type characters in a 19th century setting is something that's pretty unique and it gives the show a certain charm.
I liked the character designs a lot, I always thought that Capcom's simplistic SF Alpha-esque designs from the 90's were great and they really shine here, almost to the point of making me look past the crappy animation.

It's a good thing (or bad thing?) that I have things to do today, so I have something to occupy my time.
I never knew this existed. Huh.
KyoAni is supposed to have great working conditions.
The problem is that it has been fucked for its entire existence. We're not talking about a new or current problem, but something that has been an issue for 40-50 years. Yet the industry is still around, and it is still operating the way it is, and the major players are still making enough money to continue producing anime. As long as this remains the case, there is no reason for these players to want to risk changing the entire industry in hopes of getting something better. Especially since the people who make the business decisions are not the people suffering in the industry. I don't see a solution.
Great working conditions in comparison to the general industry. But are they great working conditions in comparison to actual employment standards? I think it's something we need to consider very carefully, even when praising the great progressive sort of approach Ufotable and Kyoto Animation take in studio building.
A prolonged strike... yeah that's not going to happen.

Well it's definitely a good representation of the art at least. Ogami looks as much like a fujoshi-bait douche as he did in the manga.
And the burning seems pretty detailed, so that will be fun when it happens to characters people actually like :/
Is that your goal? Or is that your plan of world domination. I can't tell..
A prolonged strike from who though? The animators in Japan already feel threatened that their jobs can easily be replaced by overseas animator in Asia who cost even less. If they get together and strike, wouldn't that just ensure that they have no work left? No pay at all sounds even worse than shitty pay.

I thought the first PV was a bit better, though main character is alright. Hopefully they give this one his own PV. Definitely > protagonist.
Toki is definitely a more likable character than Ogami, but all the Code:Breakers are still massive douchebags except for Yuki.

How the industry hasn't collapsed by now is fascinating. If it is indeed a mostly cultural problem, there definitely isn't an easy solution. Ideally the government should step in, but I am ignorant of the situation over there.
But are there enough animators in South Korea and elsewhere to fill the void? If all of the animators went on strike, surely the higher ups would freak out. It's not like they could transfer the workload overnight. Not to mention the issue of talent.
All of these higher ups are going to freak out that they can't lose money making anime anymore.
