So, is there something remotely as good as Fate Zero this season?

lol
no

 

[cajunator]

I assume I'll get it later

Thats actually where I first heard of Kuricorder Quartet.

Oh right. The soundtrack. Hehe.

Gundam 00 Season 2 END
I actually liked this season alot. It got a little weird and I got really tired of the constant upgrade/new model/new mode/instant repairs every episode. It was much better than the last half of the first season.
Biggest issues with the overall show were; lack of character development/screen time and

Spoiler

they really felt like they just killed character off because they could, that was the only reasons many characters were even around.

'Lockon' is definitely my second favorite Gundam pilot(after Heero) with the Dynames being my favorite Gundam.

Dynames over 00 Raiser?! I think if I ordered the cast it'd be Setsuna F Seiei, then Allelujah Haptism, then Saji Crossroads, then Lockon, and Ribbons Hallmark. What didnt you like on the end of the first season again?

Bleach 266

Oh hey, no more sword beast nonsense. And, it's a recap. An awkwardly made recap. Slow down some of the scenes, narrator the action out of the other scenes. Oh sure, don't slow down Orihime's speech, that's really important!

You actually wanted to hear Inoue's speech? They are finally coming up to my second favorite fight in the whole series (first was GrimIchi fight). Only issue with the anime for the upcoming one was the censorship thing they did :/

Space Brothers ep 20
Amazing..simply amazing at the end. Such as simple way of deciding things yet the emotion put in and impact resulted is great. 20 episodes so far and each one doesn't disappoint.

So, is there something remotely as good as Fate Zero this season?

Unfortunately there isn't but there is a few decent shows such as Moyashimon Returns!(provided you watch the first season), Natsuyuki Rendezvous, Kokoro Connect, Jinrui Suitai Shimashita, Binbougami-ga!

 

[RurouniZel]

I am nowhere near serious, you know that.
I like K-on. I have season 1 and 2 on BR.

I know, I'm just being silly. ;P

 

[Branduil]

Penguin Drum wasn't really that long ago.

Well, it sure feels that way, doesn't it?

 

[cajunator]

They still havent released the figurines of Princess of the Crystal. Penguin Drum still feels very current.

 

[Branduil]

MAPPA....

They have to stay alive somehow.

 

[duckroll]

They have to stay alive somehow.

There's always PLUTO!!!!

 

[cajunator]

They have to stay alive somehow.

I like how they all have the Seizon Senryaku face going on.

 

[Cwarrior]

KyoAni, MAPPA and maybe Bones~

Brains Base is dead to me until they start cranking out quality series again

Oh my, animeGaf has shit taste.

Indeed but then again I forget your a shafgan.

Mappa -died making a hammy drama highlighting the melodramatic misunderstanding of a many volume long bad drama manga, doesn't matter how well made bad stuff is it's still bad.

Kyoani- creatively bankrupted studio that has no ambition or motivation to ever attempted to make something of worth above there usual shovelshit( shovelshit is the equivalent of shovelware).

Bones is the only one that can die happy knowing they atoned for there sins by putting out Fullmetal alchemist brotherhood.

About brains base did I ever tell you about time they made baccano? no really they made baccano, I know it's so hard to believe this stuido once made stuff like baccano.

 

[Caesnd]

There's always PLUTO!!!!

...Say what now?

 

[firehawk12]

I have the tendency to forget that those even exist. The thought of watching Clannad sounds marginally more exciting than, say, watching someone clip their toenails for an equivalent amount of time, but I guess I can't ignore something that's rated an eleventy-seven out of ten on MAL!

Gaoguu. Ugao~~~~.

 

[survivor]

Is there any studio remaining that still has the respect of animegaf?

KyoAni and Brains Base still have my respect

 

[firehawk12]

But well worth getting through! Unless you really don't like the show, of course, in which case just drop it and move on with your life.

That's the wrong way to watch anime, etc, etc.

pizzaroll linked me to the blu-ray.com review yesterday but it was already on my backlog when i went to add it :>

Ah, I look forward to it then. lol

 

[KO Traveling Hobo]

So, is there something remotely as good as Fate Zero this season?

It's not as good as Fate/Zero, but you might want to check out Sword Art Online. It's pretty neat.

Oh boy...

 

[cajunator]

KyoAni and Brains Base still have my respect

And so they should!
Brains Base did make Ieyasu in Sengoku Collection, so they get a pass for now.

 

[Canis lupus]

FMA 45

Too bad my favourite character didn't get the airtime he did in FMA:B

 

[Train of Midnight]

Sakarea - 12

What. The. Fuck. Is this it? Is there seriously no ending?

FUCK YOU! This is almost as bad at Shaman King's ending. (Or lack thereof)

 

[Dedication Through Light]

Kokoro Connect 6

I think Im gonna dislike Inaba this whole arc, all over Taichi :/. The romance sets it up interestingly for Taichi if he likes Nagase but Inaba desires him but pushes him to her. I dont know how they will avoid this premise shaking up the friendship. I hope something somehow gets Aoki and Yui more involved.

1st ed > 2nd ed.

 

[Reknoc]

Hunter x Hunter 43

Woah, that was surprisingly brutal. The Worm is rather gross.

 

[PdotMichael]

Sakarea - 12

What. The. Fuck. Is this it? Is there seriously no ending?

FUCK YOU! This is almost as bad at Shaman King's ending. (Or lack thereof)

There are two OADs, though you will find no real ending.

 

[cajunator]

Sakarea - 12

What. The. Fuck. Is this it? Is there seriously no ending?

FUCK YOU! This is almost as bad at Shaman King's ending. (Or lack thereof)

Its the journey, man. Its the JOURNEY.
You gotta groove with it. you gotta FLOW.
You dig?

 

[Train of Midnight]

:C

Its the journey, man. Its the JOURNEY.
You gotta groove with it. you gotta FLOW.
You dig?

NO

I want a fucking ending!!!

 

[Canis lupus]

:C

NO

I want a fucking ending!!!

Use your imagination. ^_^

 

[Hitokage]

Its the journey, man. Its the JOURNEY.
You gotta groove with it. you gotta FLOW.
You dig?

Tell that to lemmings.

 

[cajunator]

:C

NO

I want a fucking ending!!!

But how can you not?
Unless you hate a show completely you shouldn't base it on a bad ending.
Yeah, the show has a non-ending but a lot of anime does.
The real lesson here is that a lot of times anime isn't about the ending, its about the ride.
How many shows have a great ending anyway?
Even if they do, it really doesn't change the shows content.
Many people choose to just enjoy the show as it goes.
Another group I guess might just judge it on the ending too but I think its wrong.
Not that I am a great judge of anything but I guess I see it differently.
Great shows do tend to end well though so maybe you have a point.
Anyway, I guess to each his own.

 

[Reknoc]

Tell that to lemmings.

Well, if they need to get to a lower platform that's what I usually tell them.

 

[PdotMichael]

Tell that to lemmings.

The Disney movie was a lie, lemmings are not so silly as the otakus.

 

[RurouniZel]

Kokoro Connect 06:

Meh, this wrinkle seems kinda dumb. The random body swapping was at least interesting in that you never knew who was going to randomly end up in who's body, but this one's gonna be predictably melodramatic. Oh well.

 

[sleepykyo]

Its the journey, man. Its the JOURNEY.
You gotta groove with it. you gotta FLOW.
You dig?

The journey was underwhelming after the 3rd episode. It should have had a better payoff to make up for it.

 

[Narag]

I didn't evn realize that was cajunator. I thought it was cwarrior given the posts and the avatar.

 

[Reknoc]

The payoff being when it turns into a battle series.

 

[Dedication Through Light]

Never realized Hulu puts this up so early on Sundays.

Rinne no Lagrange 2 ep 6

The Ovid's fighting and everything was pretty well done especially with Kirius Izo and Array remaining relevant to the plot and still getting lots of screentime. Probably my favorite episode of this season thus far for Lagrange as Yurigano is a good character

Spoiler

true feelings were shared and she has actually good Ovid piloting skills

lots of pretty visual and lasers and beam swords,

Spoiler

friendship bonding moments with Yurigano, Dizelmine, and even Villaguilio

. However the episode kind of feels out of place, really it felt like it would have worked for a series conclusion.

 

[KO Traveling Hobo]

I didn't evn realize that was cajunator. I thought it was cwarrior given the posts and the avatar.

Oh shi- mindfuck.

 

[Instro]

So, is there something remotely as good as Fate Zero this season?

Natsuyuki is very good.

 

[Cwarrior]

And so they should!
Brains Base did make Ieyasu in Sengoku Collection, so they get a pass for now.

I am so confused did someone just steal my avatar, for sec there I though hang on I didn't make that post.

 

[Narag]

I am so confused did someone just steal my avatar.

I see it grew on you enough to think of it as your own.

 

[Instro]

MAPPA....

Watanabe should direct it to make up for Apollon bomba.

 

[PdotMichael]

Oh my, the lastest Jinrui episode was so good.
A good start in the big anime sunday.

 

[SDBurton]

Oh shi- mindfuck.

Oh wow I just caught that myself.

 

[Canis lupus]

Man its been a while since I watched Gundam 00, but I always find myself listening to its OST, Prototype by Ishikawa Chiaki is so good.

 

[BGBW]

I'm surprised she knows how to use them!

That's a very liberal use of the word "use". If yI were to mark her table etiquette based on that image I'd give here a 0/10.

Mr. Peter or Dk. Pepper which is the intellectual drink for the chosen ones?

Mr. Peter sounds like a nickname for a penis.

 

[Train of Midnight]

Don't get me wrong, I loved all twelve episodes of this, but a bad ending or a complete lack of ending seriously detracts from the show. There are shows like Mushishi that don't need an ending, but this is definitely a story that did.

 

[Kazzy]

Yeah, a shitty name.

Sounds like a show I have to ignore, thanks.

 

[Reknoc]

Man its been a while since I watched Gundam 00, but I always find myself listening to its OST, Prototype by Ishikawa Chiaki is so good.

The 00 OST is great, it's on of 3 Gundam albums on my iPod.

The other 2 are the 0079 ost and that one Andrew WK album.

You mean Gundam Rock?


Btw I wanna start a Legend of Galactic Heroes appreciation thread someday, should I do it in the community forum?
