Look out for my new LN series: My Annoying Little Sister's The Most Beautiful Member Of The Imperial Harem

K-On Movie BD Limited Edition -- 96,430
K-On Movie BD Regular Edition -- 2,952
K-On Movie DVD Limited Edition -- 28,029
K-On Movie DVD Regular Edition -- 12,895

So that's 140,306 total first week sales.

KyoAni K-ommands the market yet again

I finally worked out a deal with my sister to share her Netflix with me so I could rent Revolutionary Girl Utena, and now I see it says "DVD availability date unknown." fml.

Is there a legal, inexpensive way of watching this series?

You get a neat collectors ring if you buy all the Boxsets from Rightstuf!

Lies. They just can't understand the profound meaning of nakama.

Oda weeps at their insolence.

I don't think at any point during reading TWGOK, I ever thought to myself that it's trying to pass itself as realistic way of getting girls.

Yeah, the absurdity of it's kinda the whole point.

Anyway, sent all of you guys a friend request on MAL (here's mine), don't be like Mad Pierrot and never accept

[Regulus Tera]

Out of AnimeGAF, I have the highest MAL compatibility with wonzo, Branduil and Narag.
I wonder what that means...

I think we got ourselves a harem premise going on in here.

It was always K-onceivable.

 

[BGBW]

Outsider.

I wonder what that makes someone without a MAL account then.

I was kind of surprised that when people were talking about Fate/Zero and others as AOTY no one mentioned AKB0048, even jokingly.

I called in the anime of out generation. Is that not enough for you?

I wonder if I need to get off the IGN scale and start using the full scale to get a more accurate representation. lol

I use a scale that is the opposite of IGN so I only use a few number for things I don't like leaving a large amount of room to rate things I like.

K-ON! Movie
It's good.

Took you this long to watch it and that was your review. Sad times.

does anyone actually eat that kind of ice cream?

Nope. Had it once. Never again.

We should all have signatures and link to them with flashy sparkly graphics.

Please no. Do you want to be banned within one post like that other guy?

ANN is more interesting; the site code reveals that the scale technically goes from 0 to 10, and while on the show pages, it seems to just have simple descriptors for each ranking, when you're actually rating shows the descriptions are more... elegant:

10 - A Masterpiece, exquisite beyond words
9 - Excellent, should be in anyone's collection
8 - Very good, don't miss it
7 - Good, worth seeing
6 - Decent, I didn't lose my time
5 - So-so, it didn't really grab my attention
4 - Not really good, but not a total waste either
3 - Weak, I wish I'd done something better with my time
2 - Bad, really not recommended
1 - Awful, should be avoided at all costs
0 - Worst ever, maybe useful as sadistic torture device

Fixed.

Is there a Gaf group?

 

[Articalys]

Fixed.

But it really is 1-11 in the site's code though.

<SELECT CLASS=SMALLFORM NAME="sel_rating[10196-EN-SUB]"><OPTION VALUE="">(no rating)<OPTION VALUE="11">A Masterpiece, exquisite beyond words<OPTION VALUE="10" SELECTED>Excellent, should be in anyone's collection<OPTION VALUE="9">Very good, don't miss it<OPTION VALUE="8">Good, worth seeing<OPTION VALUE="7">Decent, I didn't lose my time<OPTION VALUE="6">So-so, it didn't really grab my attention<OPTION VALUE="5">Not really good, but not a total waste either<OPTION VALUE="4">Weak, I wish I'd done something better with my time<OPTION VALUE="3">Bad, really not recommended<OPTION VALUE="2">Awful, should be avoided at all costs<OPTION VALUE="1">Worst ever, maybe useful as sadistic torture device</SELECT>

I know it doesn't really matter, but I wanted to make an "up to eleven" reference.

Look at how scores are reported numerically on a database entry page. Internal numbers mean little.

There is no reason to have five different variants of bad.

Spoiler

And Madoka is a 10

 

[A Black Falcon]

Parodies are supposed to make fun of their object, not just be them.

Right, the biggest problem with TWOGK -- and I agree, it does make the series definitely not worth it -- is that it is the harem thing that it supposedly "parodies". The 2d world and 3d world in that series are identical. That's not right...

 

[wonzo]

on a 15 point scale

 

[Kagami]

a combination of not having the narration, the removal of some of Kirito's lies, people seemingly teleporting around the scene, and some awkward fight animations made it a lot harder to swallow in the anime.

That's a good summary of the problems with the show as a whole.

Converting a novel that depends very heavily on first-person perspective into a visual medium is a challenge that not many anime have managed to meet. (It makes me appreciate just how well done the adaptation of Haruhi was.)
SAO is unfortunately no exception. Ep 3 felt like some kind of backstory digest rather than something intended to be entertaining on its own. Gonna go ahead and drop this.

So i was bored and spend an hr making this list of things i can remember. I seem to score above 70% with most folks here, so i'm sadly a normal.

And thanks for the near instant answer to my thigh question, was my aim avatar forever but i couldn't recall the name of the show :/

On a tangent, just came back from an amusement park here in shanghai and saw these.

I guess china survived through the culturalMoe Revolution.

Atelier Totori is in the first picture. Is the illustrator of the more prominent picture in the first picture Noizi Ito? I know I'm going to slap myself when I learn who illustrates it, since it looks really familiar.

 

[Hitokage]

I disagree. There is a lot of space between somewhat underwhelming and so bad I want to stab my own eyes out.

some more, park 'mascots'

I sadly couldn't find any stores over there that sold happy value beer.

And that's all the pics i took today of interesting things. Riding on a roller coaster here was probably one of the scarer moments in my life. didn't help that the seat harness decided to loosen up. Certain times i felt gravity or a shinigami pushing me down.

The lists reminds me of when I used to keep track of manga anime and games via excel but then I added prices and got all distressed when each of them crossed the thousands of dollars range and stopped :/

By the way, does GAF have a MAL club or something like that? I'm curious to see what the average gaffer like. (other than Ponies and K-on, i mean)

Here's my very shitty, sorta incomplete one.
Note: I don't rate stuff so no compatibility. I did try to do so briefly very recently but meh.

Aria the OVA: Arietta 10

this must be what :firehawk feels like.

 

[cajunator]

Still working my way through some stuff mentioned yesterday.

Riding Bean (1989)

If you're looking for a 45 minute high octane, B movie plot, car porn, gun porn, action OVA, look no further. The vehicles and chases are animated extremely well, and it's a fun ride that never really slows down.

Someone recommend me more of this 80's goodness, pleeze.

To be able to watch Riding Bean and Gunsmith Cats for the first time again
Sublime is what these are. Perfection.

I don't dislike Madoka but it was far from perfect. You know how I feel about Bakemonogatari. I don't feel comfortable assigning them numerical values, but neither one deserves a 10/10 on any scale based on quality.

Madoka I gave a 10. I love that show too much.
Bake I gave an 8.

Rinne no Lagrange 7

Oh, this is a rather melancholic epis-- wait hold on, what? AWESOME!!!

WAN!

Dropping $100+ on a blind buy isn't terribly appealing.

No, but dropping 100$ on Utena is as near to a sure bet as you can be. Plus, I have dropped much more than that on blind buys before. Utena is a fantastic show well worth whatever the asking price is.

What's the point, besides moe pandering?

The point of TWGOK is to parody galge. The main character.. as "god" has to make girls fall for him and he employs a bunch of anime cliche strategies to do it. Its tongue in cheek fun. Lighten up.

...fuck. Somehow I forgot about the entire point of a rating system was to deliver an average on a normal ten point scale.

Have some full version of Platinum Disco as a mea culpa.

85.9% You are definitely the highest compatibility I have by far. When I finally buy a home, I will definitely turn a room into an anime shrine. Depends on the size of the house I suppose.
