No. Don't ruin it

Asks questions so Ezalc doesn't have to
Apparently the manga's sales got boost though, maybe they're happy enough for that.
Kaiji also got S2 just because the LA-movie have sequel, NTV seems very caring with stuff like that.
Oh, I thought some Usagi Drop type of shit happened.
As uneven as the first season was it's pretty cool to see this. Hopefully with this many episodes there's enough screen time for Snowmaru.

Rinne no Lagrange 20
Some sinister plot is slowly emerging, though it looks like it will be a while before anything really takes off.
This episode, save for the last minute or 2, could have probably aired at any point. Just some Jersey club antics. They get a new member of the club, but lose her after she learns its not a club about piloting robots.
When did it become not summer?

This is good news for the best team, the winning team, the ONLY team that matters.
Team Arata.
Otherwise, I'm ready for more unbearably long and boring karuta matches that are long for the sake of being long. lol

It never stops.. there is no reason to stop
There's always a reason to stop talking about SAO.
You usually instigate all the SAO talk though!

The pacing in this extended finale is unbearable. Who thought this would be a good idea?
It's just occurred to me that by the time this finale has wrapped they'll have probably spent 14 or so episodes on it. That's longer than whole shows like Tsuritama, Madoka and Kids on the Slope.

Oh, you. Little do you know that this will feature an original direction with a brand-new storyline.
Arata starts playing Starcraft and leaves for Korea, leaving Chihaya alone with Taichi.

C'mon man, get with the times. He'll pick up Dota 2.
I dunno man, the guy barely knows how to use email, he has to ease himself into e-sports.

SAO is his lighthouse in these turbulent and often confusing seas of animeGAF.

Don't doubt Arata's deep, ocean like eyes or his fighter-pilot like reflexes. I'm sure he could pick it up.
Not true. This time was articalys.

you're the last person that can say that.
Lol? Just because I like SAO doesn't mean I can't stop talking about it?
I forgot that 26 more weeks of Chihayafuru means 26 more weeks of your evil romantic interloper schadenfreude. Maybe they'll just cut the entire subplot out in favor of more karuta and the joke will be on all of us!

I have never written at length about ∀ Gundam even though it's easily my favourite Gundam series and one of my favourite shows of all time. I have, from time to time, considered reviewing it at length but it's just one of those many things that I've never had time for. Thankfully someone else has: http://ogiuemaniax.wordpress.com/2012/09/11/a-boy-and-his-universe-turn-a-gundam/

I don't see her so much as 'bland' as 'balanced.'

An anime about an e-sports team could be legitimately awesome. Lots of potential.
I can't remember if Arcade Gamer Fubuki had anything like Street Fighter in it. Given that it mostly seemed to be about Fubuki's panties it probably didn't have the level of sophistication you might be hoping for...

So is Hyouka actually a good show? I watched one episode and it doesn't seem terrible.
You wished some of those shows were longer though.
But yeah, I found the pacing of Brotherhood near the end to be something that made it difficult to wholly focus my attention on the show.
Starts out slow, ends up being great.

Easily one of the best anime this year. Houtarou and Satoshi are one of the top duos.
I legitimately love the show. I like to think that it gradually gets better though I started to really enjoy it by the third episode.
Very well directed, great attention to detail, lovely art and animation, great soundtrack and some pretty entertaining characters.
It has a lot of episodes that are just flat out boring early on, but by the second half it really kicks into gear and does a lot of pretty special things. It's probably my favorite show this season.

The difference being that lots of things actually happen in an episode of Kids on the Slope!

Hyouka is a bad mystery show
So some guy on AnimeSuki had a link to LST's new single that comes out in November. There's a decent chance this is Psycho-Pass's OP and is called abnormalize.

Already heard it like 3 days ago. If it is, can't wait to see who is directing/storyboarding the OP sequence

Gonna watch Hyouka then.
The mystery aspect doesn't seem to be the main focus. At least from episode 1.

The mystery aspect fill 50-80% of each episode. I would say that's the main focus of the show after all.
And I can't stand it if they talk 18 minutes long about a silly radio announcement (with a non-logicial solution)

Oh. Well what makes it a bad mystery show? Stupid mysteries?

I'd be happy if it were Shiotani himself, considering how visually creative his Blood+ OP 3 is.

stupid mysteries about totally trivial things
overdramatized
and the solutions are then not even logical but "lol, plot"
Many people like the show for the non-mystery elements but I can't ignore the mystery elements of the show.
Blame duckroll.
Even though it deals in mysteries, the focus isn't on the mechanical unraveling of those mysteries but on the relationships between characters. As a mystery show it actually does certain things very right though. The dilemma and the small facets of it are usually laid out very clearly.
I can already see myself skipping this.
Oh, it is very much a mystery show, at least in as much as almost every episode is formed around the basis of one. There is certainly other stuff there, but whether or not you stick with Hyouka, will probably rest on your tolerance for those aforementioned mystery aspects.
