That episode was probably my favorite Jintai episode. All that commentary, plus Miyuki Sawashiro as the Mediator's childhood friend.
Really oughta rewatch that someday.
I think it's kinda interesting that the author of the LNs, Romeo Tanaka, was the scenario writer for several eroge.
I'm kinda salty that the Jintai LNs seem to be cursed with regard to fan translations. Apparently someone started another attempt at doing it this year, but it's only the first chapter (and a first draft at that), and it'll probably not go anywhere.
I wish I had enough self-discipline to actually buckle down and learn Japanese for real. I started last year, and was making decent progress, but then some stuff happened around Christmas, and I've been slacking off basically this entire year.

Wow, so Kyon and gang are stuck in some kind of time loop. I really hope they'll be able to break out of it soon!

Well at least we didn't get introduced to a new girl/guy/whatever whose sole purpose is to ruin the one true pairing before joining up with the gang like this is some jRPG.
It's was ok.

I haven't really had a chance to comment on this show, but I just wanted to say that I'm enjoying it an awful lot. I wasn't particularly impressed by the first episode or so, but I feel like the show built on itself very quickly that by the 3rd episode I was loving it. The cast is an interesting mix of personalities, often very at odds with Hachiken, and I've really enjoyed watching how quickly they have all banded together. The last few episodes have been a blast to watch. The pizza making, the late night shenanigans, Hachiken's struggles with life at the school and the slow reveal of backgrounds on various character's backgrounds. I really feel like all aspects of the show have been clicking for quite a few weeks now.

Time for speculation! I mean it did fade out towards the end. Maybe there was a little bit more time before he had to leave.
That's partly why I'm so meh on a lot of KyoAni's original productions. The writing just doesn't seem that interesting. If the writing for future shows is going to be like Tamako, Chuu, or Free then my interest in KyoAni is going from an already low number to even lower levels.

I can't wait to be extremely disappointed with Kyoukai no Kanata.
Hanada isn't exactly reassuring.
Is that supposed to be you saying something along the lines of
OOOOOOOLLLLLDDDDDDDDDDDDD?
New to GAF and new to here. I've watched EE 3 times -_-
Nice pick- ups!
Hopefully I can score some awesome stuff at Mechacon this weekend.
And I want a full 52 episodes series based on the Shaft's Kid Icarus short anime.
Dont we all!
Hell I would settle for them simply releasing the Nintendo shorts somewhere.
Here we go, the next two Ghibli Blu-rays in Japan are up: Princess Mononoke (at long last!) and The Cat Returns. Both set for release on December 4. The former is also listed as having both English subtitles and the English dub.

I would like the show to have some animation.
Companies CAN change you know.
They learn from mistakes and can even turn over a new leaf entirely.
HNNNNNNNGGGGGHHHHHH I will like this.
Indeed you are!
Nothing of great importance really.
Well you surely sold me on Sanya!
Same. I didnt really come out of my shell until College.
But I had a lot of fun.
characters in show may be sadder than they appear

I think you've been traumatized by all those Tales games or something.
Why would you watch it 3 times? lol

Yes this thread encompasses everything past and present in anime.
Yes. Hazuki is perfect. shes absolutely adorable and one of the greatest creations ever.
Funimation released a great quality set long ago and they really should rescue the license.
Tempted to get Princess Mononoke if a NA release is years off.

Japan is region 1 too, right?
I really dont have a clue how the regions work or whatever.
Would that disc play in a Ps3 or normal player?
santeesioux
Member
Depends on the region, and whether the disc is region free. The UK is region 2, but i buy all kinds of region free blu rays off of Amazon UK because they are so much cheaper.

Everyone betrays!
All the region stuff is so confusing. I may eventually bite the bullet on some things that seem like they will never get released here.
santeesioux
Member
Yeah, i kind of hope with both new game consoles going region free that crap will go away. I think Japan is the same region as the US, but you should probably research more before you buy anything like that.

Japan is Region 2 for DVDs.
Wikipedia DVD Region Codes said:
If we are talking BluRays, they are Region A (the same as the US).

I think the Red Demon has a bit of a point when he said something was off about Yayoi looking up to a fictional character she herself created. But I guess that can happen when one tries to create a character whom they perceive possesses the qualities they themselves lack. But Yayoi grew a bit this episode, so hopefully she won't have to draw as much inspiration from Miracle Peace and just face things the way she is now.

Yep, already edited.
My favourite new show of the season.
Im pretty sure the two consoles will find some way to fuck it up.
So its kind of like Those Who Hunt Elves?

Makai Ouji: Devils and Realist Episode 7 Pillar 7 - Party and Battle
Every episode gets more and more BL, which is pretty cool and pleasing actually. And with all four + two involved I hope to expect many more scenes. Solomon though really drives the point too, the way he looks and Dantalion looking at him and both blushing so hard. Setting it at an all boys school even too is good. Beyond that though the plot is getting deeper and more compelling

Didnt understand why they would want to kill the elector when all of their underlings are already into William Twining, just didnt seem possible that it would have a way of coming to pass. Especially with Kevin there.
Can I skip to it and get whats going on or do have to endure 209 more episode that all probably put me to sleep 209 times
Boring errands and throw away poor sob story's aren't my thing.

This is Onpu. This is the face of a mischievous adorable. Unforatunely, with the way things are
MAJO RANGER WOW. Doremi's into this stuff big time. So is the kid of the episode, wow. At least he got along with that one dude at the end. Violence DOES solve everything!

with her abusing magic to alter people's mind, it's practically setting up what the final episodes will be. Her charm (the object, not her) is wearing thing.
