Hell no, how can you not root for Kise in this game, it's the perfect underdog scenario.
DTL knows.
There's no way that statement is true, right?
It pretty much is.
Wow. People need to go out and explore other entertainment/ entertainment mediums. Jeez...

There are no good tv shows no more, and most end up being cancelled prematurely anyway so why waste time watching, movies are just sequels after sequels so it got dull, and games, only good games are those that are like anime, in my opinion (NUNS for example)
What? Uh... I disagree... Extremely disagree.
Come on.
Breaking Bad and Mad Men are currently airing. I can understand it not being your cup of tea but I certainly wouldn't call them not good. As for the good games line, I don't know where to start.
When protag not involved best chara always win.
And Kise represent today's bball athlete pussy, Aomine is goddamn oldschool.
Go Aomine!
Wait, you're saying that we all weren't?

It's DTL, you shouldn't act surprised.
Why aren't you watching Teen Wolf?
How could you forget pretty much any scene involving Renly?

I really love how shameless these POV shots are. It's like they're taking this shot out of a VN or something. Bravo, anime director guy, bravo. lol
And I can't believe I'm spoiler-texting this fucking show, but here goes:
Also, I can't believe they managed to find a way to fit in gender issues into this silly show. It seemed both out of place, but also fitting given how they are basically #gamechanging it up for the climax.

So, knowing nothing about Japanese history, I have to say that I was actually interested in what was going on and I want to know what happens next. Presumably they're setting up an end game, and splitting up the characters is probably the easiest way to create a sense of tension, but I'm okay with that because for whatever reason, I'm still invested in how the future stuff ties into this version of the past.
I'm also willing to bet that the cellphone stopped the bullet that was shot in the last scene of the episode, but I'm in this enough that it probably won't bother me if that turns out to be the case.

Still doesn't really top Kyubei from Gintama, but that's what they were going for anyway. lol
Lol. Dat ending.

Nah, she isn't mentioned in the story ever.
Holy shit, you're right.
I guess it was just too obvious
I didn't understand the hype regarding Game of Thrones. It's a good show but I didn't think it was crazy good.
It's more the books than the show itself.
Ah. That makes sense then.
I loved the books so it was pure fanservice for me, I enjoyed watching all the characters come to life, even if I didn't agree with some of the casting choices.
I'm pretty hyped for the third season, it should be the best one, so you should definitely watch it.
Did you know that Gonzo were rumoured to be doing an adaptation of Suspiria many years ago? I'm not sure if it was ever "confirmed" but it's long since died a death (I wondered at the time whether some of the thinking behind the project ended up in Red Garden).
Laying down the truth bombs!
Correct me if I'm wrong but you read stuff from Shounen Jump that gets cancelled quickly, don't you? It's the same philosophy with US TV shows for me - enjoy it while you can. I think you'd probably enjoy a lot of shows that the USA Network puts out in the States - something like White Collar, where the male friendship is the heart of the story and it's incredibly slashy.
I mean, if you want to just watch anime and read manga then fine, but it's not like there isn't other stuff out there that contains the same themes you seem to like.

Watch Breaking Bad. The show is FILLED with bro bonding!
I had to press the down arrow just to copy you in. You should feel the most ashamed.
Only three out of the twelve are anime so far? Weak.

Okay, that made me laugh pretty hard.
Sengoku Collection 22:
I guess that there was someone not content with Katakura Kojuurou simply being a flashback character in Masamune's episode because we got, well, this freaking dull and super-low-budget affair. Kojuurou being the most wooden, lifeless character ever just compounded the misery.
Note to show: if you're going to do a detective procedural, at least spice it up in bizarre ways like you do with everything else. The detective should have been, uhh, a mime or an African shaman or something and all of the backgrounds should have been drawn like Piet Mondrian paintings. At least Episode 23 made up for this.
The most boring yuri pairing ever. Except for the random titty-pinching.

Not really. If anything, Y (the girl with the white hair) is a fujyoshi.
Now, watch the newest Oda Nobuna and explain it to me please. lol

Yeah, that's what I've been seeing too.
On the one hand, I agree with your feelings on that scene. On the other, it's hard to see it happening any other way
with Inaba. She had to be forced into that situation; it's not like she'd go chat with Aoki or Yui about it or something on her own. But maybe they could have forced it earlier.
That hasn't been my experience with Japanese cartoons!
I don't know what that means, but I'm guessing maybe that everybody's romantically compatible with everybody? (
The opposite of AnoNatsu.
That would have been shocking more for not making any sense at this point than anything else.
In Kokoro Connect?
Well, it's a male-targeted heterosexual romance fantasy, right? Like most light novels.
And not a purely silly thing like Nyaruko where the character relationships are all jokes.
So yeah I wouldn't expect it to spend any significant time on a gay relationship.
It's be like spending time on lesbian romance in a Harlequin romance novel or putting full-length gay routes in an eroge
(goddammit 0verflow)
As for lesbians, I don't think Fujishima is fake.
I'm definitely curious about the books for the second arc, because the anime felt like maybe it was missing something.

Its just disappointing when something you really start to like gets cancelled all of a sudden, and then theres no fanbase so you get no fanfics/fanarts from it, so it basically dies super fast. I just dont think tv shows have as deep and engrossing worlds as anime, or at least consistent compelling characters, and rarely have the majority of what I like in my stories to have. The last tv shows I attempted was 24, which was pretty amazing initially (s1-3), Chuck (probably my favorite), and Heroes (ended early too I think). Terranova looked compelling but wasnt it ended early as well?
A friend had suggested Glee and Lost at one point, but I gave both up, Lost was just too well confusing in terms of storytelling and hard to follow, and Glee had incompetent characters and my characters werent canon together so :/ Maybe Ill look at what people said if its on netflix or hulu and try it.
This is my catch-up day anyway, so sure, hahah.
