Actually this show is more like Trouble in Terrorist Town: The Anime. The dead person is the T, Misaki is the D. And she's a shitty fucking D at that.
Everyone gonna die!
Holy shit at some of these deaths, goddamn.

Got as far as the words "Square Enix" then dropped the show. Fuck no I am not sitting through a plot by this fucking company, no matter how well animated. Maybe when there's nothing to do and I'm dying alone in a cold ditch, I'll watch it to see if I can't frighten the reaper away, but UGH. Someone should've warned me before I tried to watch this.

So you're only 4 episodes behind?
Might as well, three of the 4 next episodes have neat action scenes anyway.
Its so cute it hurts.
How heavily does Armin feature/how rarely does one see Mikasa wreck shit?
Did you really just drop a show because a company was a part of the production committee, especially one that has little to no creative input in it? ಠ_ಠ
Dude what? Come on you should know better.
Well damn. lol. They didn't even really play a part in it. Just some sponsership I assume.

I think there was more action here than in the manga so I guess +1 for the anime.
I hope for the next TWGOK adaptation they skip the Namek arc and move onto whatever's next since they seem so fond of skipping stuff.

It's more that I don't have time to watch it than anything, but I don't want to see a show Square had part in.
I don't want to see a Square Enix anime because when I see their name I think "Shitty writing". It's the same way with Level 5 after Gundam AGE, really.
If the show is honestly good or Square isn't involved and just has their name in the opening credits, I'll believe you guys and give it a chance, but yes, seeing the words "Square Enix" or "Level 5" is enough to make me shy away from a show or game.
Fullmetal Alchemist is a Square Enix property. They publish manga and such.

One possible involvement of Square Enix is that the manga was published in Young Gangan, one of Square's manga magazines.
Avatar The Last Airbender s01e05 (in deference to hox's refined sensibilities)
I forgot how hilarious Bumi was. "Take them to the chamber!" "The good chamber or the bad chamber?" "The newly refurbished chamber!" "Wait, which one is that again?" "It was the bad chamber... but then we refurbished it. Though I guess we really should number them..."

All it means is they just put some money in as part of the committee - as in, how anime is funded - for a slice of the pie.
I have also never been interested in watching Full Metal Alchemist, but not really for any reason related to Square's stank.
They own manga magazines? Go figure.
If they really didn't I'll give the show a shot, but lemme tell you, I so am not down for an anime Square's staff wrote. If that's not the case I'll watch, though.
Don't watch it. You'll seriously regret it. There are better shows to watch.

Star Driver is written by Yoji Enokido (Diebuster, FLCL, Melody of Oblivion, Redline, Revolutionary Girl Utena), not by anyone who works for Square-Enix.

But Corvo would just drop FMA at the drop of a hat.
But the .gif that I saw from the movie looked pretty cool?
Well, I mean, I've seen some crummy shows. Just don't know that I want Square level of crummy.
I didn't know Square did this sort of thing.
Not when it is written in japanese? All I saw was the words "Square Enix." I didn't know they published a manga magazine. I thought they just raped childhood memories and then ported things to iOS nowadays.
Well okay, then, I'll stick with Dual and such.
Isn't FMA like 700 episodes long and one of those long running shonen anime? I tend to shy away from anything longer than 50 episodes, and even then I only really do that for mecha nowadays.

FMA 03 is like 51 episodes and Brotherhood is like 64 episodes.
Pick one, both if you feel like it. Different flavors and storylines and shit.

First FMA is roughly 50 episodes long and the second version which is a different timeline is 63.
They're really not that long and they're both easily worth it. You don't even have to see both.
this is some amirox levels of hyperbole
He could be mistaking it for something like HxH though.

Are you trying to out :kayos Kayos.
I might just do that.
I dunno, I've only ever dropped 2 shows. Rah Xephon because being gutted alive with a plastic spoon is a more wholesome experience, and Attack on Titan because I couldn't ride that rollercoaster of quality any longer. I guess technically 3 when you add in the time I stopped watching Glass Fleet (I should've kept stop watching that boooooring, poorly animated mess), but I did come back and finish it. I wouldn't count this show since I didn't see more than the opening scene, just as I don't count Linebarrels of Iron for the same reason.

Well he won't have to worry about FMA being on hiatus at least.
I don't think that's the proper use of :kayos loll

Yes, ones with GOOD stuff in them. Fullmetal Alchemist, Soul Eater, Tripeace, Doubt, Hare + Guu, Until Death Do us Part, Aphorism, Daily Lives of HIgh School Boys, Choku, Akame ga Kill, Dusk Maiden, and about a billion other things.
They're just a publisher, not a creator of manga series.

But the first Hunter x Hunter anime was 62 episodes and the current one's only up to 97.

HxH will end in the 130s.
I will, but I dunno if I will right away. School just started last week and I'm trying to get everything sorted into my new schedule. Maybe I'll put it in after MJP, but then again I was saving that for KlK.
I actually wasn't that crazy about FMA either, but people like it.
