I actually really liked how mysterious it was -- it added a lot to the atmosphere.
. iirc, someone recommended Saikano to me awhile ago. Without spoiling anything, could you tell me what you disliked about it?
I wouldn't really consider that a plot hole or anything.
One can come up with a variety of reasons why humanity might have taken that path, and the "why" isn't nearly as important as the simple fact that it's happening.
I'm with you on this, though maybe I'll understand it better on a repeat viewing.
I'm all about dem
apocalypses
Reading it right now. Oh wow. :lol
I never said Divergence Eve was great, only :Chet.
Although it does present a modicum of amusement if Im honest.
Ah, the ol' "I'm-insecure-about-the-existence-of-this-fandom-so-I'm-going-to-make-this-thread-about-me" Amir0x trolling.

It's totally understandable that you'd watch it that way. For what it is, the show is more competent than it really ought to be.

IDK I think the actual production(art,music,etc) is about the only thing going for it.
besides Madoka
Its kind of weird they are actually trying to tell a story but its getting too deep into it and doesn't have enough of what made the first season enjoyable. or if you care about the mechs besides the latest episode I don't recall much happening with them this season.
Massive insecurity describes 90% of the posts in any pony thread, but Amir0x's raging misanthropy and monumental hatred toward anything that challenges his narcissistic delusion that he is the perfect and omniscient God of Opinions always easily manages to rise above everyone else's pedestrian ignorance and trolling. It's impressive, really.
In some way I'm perversely disappointed because I kind of wanted something that I could consistently expect to be able to rage at every week, but if it's legit good, then that's better!
I'm trying to figure out why someone would be insecure about something they're not even a fan of themselves.

Divergence Eve 2
Jumping through worm holes is dangerous stuff or something.
Lots of questions, not a whole lot of answers.
So people do it because it's the popular (or in this case "easier") thing to do？
It's easier than dealing with their own insecurities. It's just bullying in internet form.
Have any of us?
I'm trying to understand why those insecurities exist in the first place. If amirox isn't all tsundere for MLP and really doesn't like it, why put that much effort into saying things about the people who do like it.
I'm not going to lie and say I do t think grown men liking MLP isn't a bit goofy, but I don't go out of my way to try and make them feel bad about it either (although for some reason right now I feel I kind of did this in that thread when I argued that MLP fans weren't the same as video game and anime fans).
I don't know what this means.

Because Amirox.
You have to understand Amir0x is really outspoken about his opinions. It's not enough to just have them but he needs reactions to validate them.
I can't forget Arjuna no matter how hard I try.

What a wonderful ending to the festival. A lot came together in this episode, between the different story lines going on, and it was handled brilliantly. The intertwining of Houtaru's confrontation with the culprit, Satoshi's frustration, and Mayaka's manga woes was really interesting to watch. Particularly with the way everything ended up tied together in a neat little package. Loved Houtaro laying out his logic during his talk with Juumoji, even though they were just standing there the visual direction made it pretty exciting to watch, between the many different shots in the scene as well as the cuts to Satoshi in the background. Very cool section of the episode, especially with Houtaro playing it so shrewdly and cool.
Looking forward to seeing how the show closes out. I've enjoyed it a lot since the beginning so I'm pretty excited to see what they've got cooked up for a closing episodes coming off such a strong festival arc.

This thread is giving me the urge to experience some Kawamori magic.
Green is life partner.
That's some oppressively cheerful music.
I have much to learn it seems.

--This post is in regards to Gundam 00--
It's been a couple of years since I've seen the show but when that stuff happened I thought it was kind of annoying except for that one guy where it was a bit of a running gag.
This is actually one of the many reasons why I didn't like the movie. In the movie
Agreed about Nobuna and I just wanted to clarify something about Katsuie. Do you not like her armor in general or are you more specifically referring to the whole "bust bounce" detail?
Agreed that that part was really unnecessary. They could have done that scene in so many other ways. On the plus side, it gave her a legitimate reason to beat him up a little.
Reading different forums and messages it seemed everyone hated Irisu and were mentioning they never wanted to see her again. Once again,as usual, it seemed I was alone in my love for something. It's nice to know there are others. Moonspeak and I believe 7Th, have also mentioned they like her.
Honestly, for all the people I've seen who have given their thoughts or opinions on the Gundam 00 movie, DTL here at AnimeGaf is the only person I've seen that said they actually liked it.
Having now seen the episode, and apparently like everyone else, that was what immediately came to my mind as well. Honestly my first reaction was something like "Oh no...they're not going there are they?" It could be my own personal dislike for that topic coming into play though.
On the one hand I could agree with you that it could be an interesting topic to cover but in this case it feels kind of forced. Judging by the next episode preview it looks like it will be dropped quickly as well. Although when you only have twelve or thirteen episodes, I guess you'll run into some time limitation problems.
I guess I just wondered why she was doing it. Some mentioned for the horseback riding but it didn't seem like she was doing it before or to this degree. It just made me wonder, why now? Because of the talk with her dad? It was just that in the show
I don't know, I guess it just makes me wonder why start now? or if she was already doing it, why to this extreme?

I believe that character actually was killed off permanently for whatever reason. Other characters as well, that made it all the way through the show, were also just killed off rather unceremoniously like an afterthought and I personally found it pretty annoying how it was executed.
This is probably some of the better female armor I've seen in an anime.
Unlike Shibata Katsuiie.

All this love for Irisu...

But, I guess what I want to talk about is this scene:
I guess the question is... is an anime grown-up enough to go "there" andshow a girl purge because she is suffering from anorexia or was it just a coincidence that she is wiping her mouth coming out of the bathroom? There was that Reiko Yoshida anime that dealt with a woman suffering from bulimia, but this would be the first time I've seen anorexia in anime form at least.
I applaud them if that's what they're doing and it certainly helps make the show be a bit more important, although. Of course, I'm only saying this because it's anime. If this was an episode of Glee, I'd probably laugh at it.it looks like it'll be completely dropped next episode anyway.
Having now seen the episode, and apparently like everyone else, that was what immediately came to my mind as well. Honestly my first reaction was something like "Oh no...they're not going there are they?" It could be my own personal dislike for that topic coming into play though.

Konatsu clearly expresses surprise when Sawa only has a rice ball for lunch so her eating little seemed out of character. They seemed to want to emphasize this by showing her again skipping dinner at home. Then at school she gets all weak and dizzy and seemed a little out of it during the musical. I don't recall her being shown to be like this before either. Again, it seemed to emphasize her throwing up.
I don't know, I guess it just makes me wonder why start now? or if she was already doing it, why to this extreme?
That should tell you all you need to know, really.

i dont remember why i started reading this... but yeah... fanservice in text! Kugaloli in text!
I think the book is mildly less retarded than the show for what that's worth.

The real reason why the scenario is like that is because the author made the start , the end and AFTER went to put things in between .. the fact is that the scénario depicted are still strong enough on their own ( imo ). Those struggle and the characters changes within the world are exactly what is adapted .. kirito will change and so will the main heroine. This is told by numerous stories of events on what happenned in SAO.
No. Kirito was able to befriend klein just fine .. and he will befriend a lot of people in this anime.. due to past experiences, he is afraid of people he doesn't know and then the whole beater things happens that put into a bad light for things like having a good gear early when he's only done this to survive.
He had plenty of reason to motivate everyone.
First , he understood the dying guy wish ( it's fairly obvious ).
Second getting people to keep fighting together to clear the game was the goal of this expedition ( most of them will become the advance guard fighting bosses to clear floors )
Third .. as experienced by the very first boss floor , you need people to clear the game.. you can't go solo ( for bosses ) . Even kirito works in team for boss fights
Plenty of reason to motivate everyone and act as the bad guy ...
Yeah but you don't suicide yourself out of spite ... they were a real close band of people IRL
SAO is like that ... there are plenty of traps within the game that are made to kill ( literrally the player ). That's why everyone is in teams ..if you're just a few level under what's necessary you'll probably die.
Wondering alone in a normal dongeon and you might get ambushed ( see ep 4 ) and your risk of dying is quite high ..
Sao is that kind of game .... there is within the story plenty of even more devious traps like this.
Also and i insist on this point .. they weren't a skilled guild .. they were a confident guild that went into an unknow dongeon without being properly prepared ( cockyness ) and died for this .. they were very far from the front lines so they were nowhere close as to be "skilled".
furthermore , even kirito would had died if this wasn't for his "advantage" so the weak guild members being one-shot is nothing surprising.
You should watch more episodes .. there will be quite more intresting stories ( you will like or dislike them ) but the number of different things will be enough for diversity
The adaptation is very good ..there is just some things you can't adapt properly no matter what you do ( and thus even when it's perfectly explained in the LN )
EP3 however could have taken an extra episode to show everything properly
I'm still not sure how this happened, but I guess it kind of justifies the existence of the show. Well, that, and its healing powers of salvation if one is but only willing to listen to the profetic asshole that is Chrisu.

cast seems fun. Hope the whole rape cam view isn't how it gonna be for the rest of the show.
Shit is more uncomfortable than any RKB.

But alas, the whole precure "why rolecall when you are gonna rolecall again 2 min later?" shit is happening.
Hmmm was the final form in precure always this early? Surely they aren't gonna use this for the whole 2nd half of the show?
