Gundam Wing 19 20
Lady Un needs to get some honorable mention award or something, shes really as good as Zechs for antagonist. Some of her lines are hilarious like
Lady Un: If the gundam pilot is ugly, let him live, we cant have people symphatize with him
Random Underling: If hes ugly?
Lady Un: Just kidding, lolololololo
Unfortunately
isnt ugly.
The plot is really moving places and getting to be so much more than just Gundams as the route to peace.

I like how Trowa enrolled into the Oz and is actually going to be in the new suit, and seemingly ran into Heero and captured him. I think Heero may pilot the other suit as well so watching how this goes down with Lady Un and they get out of it will be interesting. Now if Quatre and Duo can get healed and back in action again (fortunately soon) Id be happy. Memorable scene was when Duo screamed and Trowa cried as Trowa destroyed Duo's suit, that was touching and emotional to see their reactions to it.
I guess, but this one more so than usual. It's fine though as Himawari was there to balance out the bad things <3
I couldn't help but feel like this part of the episode would have been better if they'd been in fantasy outfits and not just their school uniforms.Also:
Amazing bit <3
That's not Ume Aoki's work
I'm channeling her right now.

Can't wait to see Hidamari Sketch X Honeycomb next season.
He's right! What would Urobuchi Gen think if he saw us now?
Akari is an awesome character but chinatsu is easily the cutest. I'm fine as long as they don't do anything to her
Still waiting for
Chinatsu to force kiss Akarin again.

Agreed, I found that strange myself.

I guess this means I will finally watch Cowboy Bebop
So tsun.
So like the castle of Cagliostro Bluray then. Either some framerate concern or they are using a master made for TV.
What the actual fuck? I know
TL and all but... FUCK NO. I'm not ignoring that.Baka!
Why was it written poorly? You will have to ask Snowqueen's Icedragon about that.
I think it would be pretty hard to make Mr. Grey and Anastasia moe-rific characters.
It's not like I'm waiting with baited breath for more HeartCatch impressions or anything.
Baka.
As long as you say it in Kana Hanazawa's voice you can call me baka all day.

Maybe we'll be lucky and this'll be like the Star Trek TNG remaster with them recompositing all the CG and special effects at a higher resolution....
Its nice to dream
Endless eight?

I love it as well. My favorite on Gaf.
Dumbest smile on my face when I first saw it.

Season 2 has episodes that happen in between some episodes of season 1 chronologically. Really though you don't want to watch all of season 2. The ones you want to watch are Bamboo Leaf Rhapsody, the first last last episode of Endless Eight, and the sighs arc.

I watched in complete random order I'm afraid.
The anime has only one real story arc the other stuff are just slice of life episodes. It's not really important if you watch the show in the right or wrong order.
My Yuri goggles exploded when that happened <3

Season 2 was aired chronologically in between the season 1 episodes in their chronological order in Japan. So you don't really need to watch season 2 in any other order but that one it comes in.

Would be cool if they could get everything to mesh well together. While not exactly the same thing, one of the problems I have with the Zeta Gundam movies is that the new footage is so clean looking that any transition between that and the old footage or vice versa looks jarring.

dvd order was the chronological order or?
but wiki has episodelist with all other order http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_The_Melancholy_of_Haruhi_Suzumiya_episodes
It's the HD master made for the DVDs a few years back.

Leaving it on the shelf is best order.
Everyone should experience Haruhi IMO, it doesn't matter if they end up loving it or hating it.
Paranoia Agent 4
Oh man, I love this episode. Not quite as much as I did before, but only because I have more experience with stuff like it.
It all starts with a great character design. And it's someone we've seen in passing before.
Hirukawa's a cop with a family, a small job, and the mild dream of owning a nice house. He just wants to live a good life and provide for his family. Is that so wrong? Isn't that what a man's life should be?
Unfortunately, Hirukawa learns the hard way
He's not a bad person. But he's cowardly, and he's spent all his life taking the path of least resistance. This episode shows how that cowardice can be manipulated by the worst parts of society, and how it's encouraged, ignored, and rewarded by the people who should be the most vigilant against it.
Crime, like war, has changed. But crime, like war, never changes.
Next episode should be interesting.

How could you not like this man? He's so harmless, like a teddy bear.

Maybe this imagery was a little blunt, but this manga's contrast with the events of the episode was a really biting indictment. I liked it a lot.
Unfortunately, Hirukawa learns the hard way
that making friends in organized crime has its price. He can't turn his back on his dream, and he doesn't have the guts to jeopardize his career and do the right thing. So, as we watch cops talk about the rash of purse-snatching in the other district, as we see his house bought with dirty money slowly being built, as we read a manga of the strong, brave, nameless avenger defeating the bad guys, we see Hirukawa go further and further down an evil path. And thanks to his "heroism", all his selfishness goes unpunished.
He's not a bad person. But he's cowardly, and he's spent all his life taking the path of least resistance. This episode shows how that cowardice can be manipulated by the worst parts of society, and how it's encouraged, ignored, and rewarded by the people who should be the most vigilant against it.
I think the image of the Japanese flag here is supposed to relate to the "yamato damashii" ideal that, in conjunction with the "Way of the Man" manga, represents the strong, brave male ideal which Hirukawa cannot live up to.
Crime, like war, has changed. But crime, like war, never changes.
Next episode should be interesting.

Even if you somehow hated it, the movie should have made it all worth it.
It wasn't until the episode finished that I noticed my jaw was still open. Great episode.
I guess just watching the movie saved me a lot of time, then.
Didn't like the movie all that much though.

That's in response to Cagliostro or Cowboy Bebop, I'm assuming the former? What's the sense in mastering in interlaced fields when DVDs are progressive? It sounds like it would be interesting.
Just saw this Macross DLC for Ace Combat
Japan only, why do they do this to me..
No GERWALK or Battroid modes. You'll be fine!
Why should someone suffer though an absolutely terrible series?
Seeing
Yuki suffer

Because it's not terrible but more of a marmite thing, you either love it or hate it.
Yeah but you're weird. And you smell (I presume)
