Nice to see fujoshis basically supporting the series.
Man, female nerds are just as bad as the male ones. Except they have to imagine it because no one is going to make Yuru Yuri with an all male cast.
It'll probably happen soon enough. It's currently an untapped market just waiting for the next big thing to strike.
Will episode X complete the series? I know the manga is over, but I have no idea how far Ultimate is to meeting its completion.
The final volume should release this December in Japan, barring any delays.
X will be the final one unless they bother to make any more of those The Dawn specials.

Heh, I didn't expect that you would consider the ending a troll.Sora no Woto - 7.5

Is this really about to happen? Really? Really?!!

I'd watch it because it would be amazing. I guess the male version of the random breast grab to compare sizes would be guys randomly grabbing each other's crotches. lol
Yep, will be the longest one out of them all as well IIRC. 60+ mins.

You kidding, I was on the edge of my seat.
Yumina needs to hang out with the gang more often, I loved her role in this episode.

I'd watch it. I'm long overdue for some penance for not complaining about all of the unrealistic faux-yuri stuff that happens in anime targeted at male otaku, hahah. It's part of the reason that I marathoned Miracle Train the other week.
I can see it now. "Announcement: Hirano's earlier masterpieces are finally being adapted for the first time! This animated OVA series will be brought to you by the studio behind the award winning TSF Monogatari adaptation!"

I know the TV anime is going to be censored to hell and back but it does look like Xebec is trying this time.
Regardless, I approve of their work so far.
Well I mean in comparison to the previous TLRs, which they also did.
I don't know if it's getting an AT-X airing like Motto! did, but regardless, we're getting BDs, and they will be glorious.

I hate this already. lol
She's basically a main character by the end. Also, gotta love your dedication to yuri.You kidding, I was on the edge of my seat.

Yaoru Yaoi!, coming in 2013.
I believe!
yaoruyaoayaoyaoyaoyaoruyaoi♪
Well at least there is one good staff member.
Saint Seiya Omega episode whatever
Wait, what? So Shiryu
? Man this is some bullshit.
And I see Shunrei is still as bland and uninteresting as ever. Some things just never change.
Wait, what? So Shiryu
has been taking care of the Libra cloth all this time but all of a sudden some other dude is the one who actually gets to wear it

Hidamari Sketch x365 1
An excellent way to open this second season, with the best episode of the series yet. There are numerous elements that make it stand out:
- It changes up the formula. Most episodes of Hidamari Sketch follow a predicable pattern: there's some birds and a shot of the school clock, Yuno's alarm goes off, she wakes up and gets ready for the day, she hangs out with the other girls in the apartment at school and home, she takes a bath and goes to bed: a day in the life. This one not only covers multiple days, but also turns the clock back to Yuno's high school entrance exam and first moving into her apartment, thus allowing us to see the characters before their group dynamic gets established. It provides a good opportunity to reintroduce everyone at the beginning of this new season as well.
- Great animation. The big standout is the opening scene, featuring Yuno and her mother desparately sprinting to the exam, which has some of the best running sakuga I've seen outside Nichijou.
Overall the character animation is much more lively and expressive than usual (I particularly liked Miyako's speedy slurping). It's no surprise to see animators like Genichirou Abe and Ryo Imamura popping up here. The general quality of animation in Shaft shows may be poor, but when when they do put skilled animators to work the exaggerated result is quite attractive.
- Creative, energetic storyboarding courtesy of Tatsuya Oishi's genius. There's clever framing, quick cuts, and the textual interjections you'd expect from the director of Bakemonogatari, from simple descriptions
to Japanese proverbs.
There was one particular visual metaphor which was quite effective, showing Yuno's shyness and loneliness in her new surroundings being broken through by the light of Miyako's outgoing nature and spontaneous affection for her, symbolizes by the nickname she comes up with for her - Yunocchi. The music and the active camera work combine to make an exhilirating and heartwarming scene.
It is only after this scene that the 4-3-2-1 countdown traditionally starting each episode kicks in, as if to say that now is when the story of Hidamari Sketch truly starts. It is at moments like these that the overall non-chronological ordering of the show pays off.
After all the work of his that I've seen, I feel comfortable saying that Tatsuya Oishi is the single greatest Shinbo disciple. He understands the style in a way few others have been able to approach.

Aka, "Hana yori dango", aka, "Food before art."

Easily. He's into BSDM and his ears bother the crap out of me.
What's the deal with To-Love-Ru? Typical harem stuff just with the guys sister wanting to do him too?

Damn this is slow. Some asshole is hiding the Classics club anthologies and Oreki figures it out.
Chitanda is unbelievably cute when she sneezes.
Yep.

TLR is when smut becomes high-class art.

I'm under the impression that you simply experience it.
Toloveru is actually pretty well made.
The first two seasons are haremshit but nicely done. The girls are cute and the story is fun. They are aliens with awesome little devil tails with a heart. Its glorious.
Excellent.

Pretty much.
TLR is pretty mediocre tbh. Probably should just read a synthesis and start with Darkness. That's about when mangaka's waifu left him and stole his daughter and he reached enlightenment.
As we all know, tormented artists make the best art. It's historically sound!
Lol. This is so true too.
Yoshitoshi ABe made Haibane Renmei when he was really depressed.
Also, on to Hyouka 04. Somebody keep me awake.

well made trash is still trash
Just read TLR to prepare you for Darkness. And by read, I just mean flip through the pages cause there is no point in reading the dialogues.

If you're really interested in this stuff, you could always scour the world of yaoi OVAs such as Ai no Kusabi and Tight-rope. (Warning: View at your own risk.)
If only the show was more action packed
So far, Chitanda's sneezing is the best part of it.
There's 1 running scene eventually, in like episode 15.
I think that's the extent of the action though.
Kingdom ep1-2
One man isn't enough to cover all the glorious gif potential this has, there a gif worthy scene around every 20secs, we need to recruit more brave selfless gaffers with gif skillz to do this justice.
Truly the future of anime where everything is cg even the god man floor.It's like the anime team pooled all there money together and bought a ps1 dev kit then made a cg anime with an anime budget and anime frame rate.
-characters animate like puppets it's pretty scary to look at
-low frame rate
All it's missing is a euro dance beat soundtrack.
