No reason to announce it when there isn't enough material to adapt

I have no desire to continue watching Attack on Titan after watching the first two episodes several days back, i realize most people here hate it, but is it worth it to try and plunge through it anyway? Any redeeming qualities?

When the action happens it's pretty awesome, personally I like the manga better even if the art is kind of fugly.

I think a movie would be fitting (movie summary of each arc)...but even a tease of more even in some undefined form would have been alright. Maybe there will be shingeki events...

SNAFU OVA
Yeah, other than that wedding dress cap that got posted a while ago, there wasn't much here.
At least teacher gets a bit of a starring role this time. lol
So I need to go and watch this right now.
Hikki and Sensei look so nice together
And oh wow, at the Saika picture on the top-middle row.

awww yessss
It's so good. I'm so glad I watched it.
It's like a spreading virus...but good!
Yeah, there a few shows that I highly suggest to people all the time (Clannad/Clannad:AS, Golden Boy, 5cm/sec, The Girl Who Leapt Through Time) and Toradora is one of them.
It really is.
Anytime is a good time!

If i was a manga guy, i think i'd try that instead.
He's the only reason I started watching Love Lab from episode 1.
Yes it makes me feel ill to say that. Speaking of!
Love Lab 13
So we learned that Maki is Nyaruko, Riko is a masochist, and Nagi is a total bro. Also the entire student council relationship is predicated not on knowledge of love, but on excessive comedic violence. Also I'm not sure how anyone could have watched an entire season of this and still cling to the idea that it can be a yuri series. Well, based on scans of later volumes the best way to sum that up is "hahahahahaha no"
Best new show, though Watamote isn't far behind. Given Monogatari still has another cour to go I'm holding off judgment on where that ranks for the time being. And again, speaking of!
Monogatari S2 13 (Otori 2)
KanaHana you do really strange things to me just by talking. Aside from that, Araragi seems to have fully embraced and come to terms with his incestual lolicon nature and doesn't even bother to hide it anymore. Also the snake is a dick.
This series has also been a never-ending display of Shinobu being awesome and it seems that train ain't stopping any time soon.
It's going to be part of the 2nd season. It's not really a spoiler.
Edit:Fine, whatever I'll edit it.
It probably depends on what you're looking for in a show. Do you like the shounen shows? Do you mind crappy animation? How do you feel about powerpoint slideshows?
Most of the time, you'll find someone here who likes a show no matter how much everyone else hates it.

Honestly the anime is enjoyable but if you didn't like the premise after two episodes you're not going to enjoy the series.

Clannad is one of those shows i've been meaning to get to.
It's an awful design anyway.
It's not. A spoiler would be if she was dead in the first season and she came back to life in the 2nd.

Depends on the shounen show, but my tolerance for them has gone down the older i've gotten. I don't mind crappy animation, and i'm neutral to powerpoint slideshows.
I could have told you Love Lab was great after it aired. That doesn't count.

Yeah, that's what i was thinking. I might try it again in the future, but there's other shows to watch.

Well then the biggest issues that most of anime gaf seem to have with the show shouldn't bother you. There's a ton of people who like it for its story and atmosphere they mostly post in the Titan OT and not in this thread.
I'll admit I wasn't a fan of Titan when I first started to read it. It's grown on me as the mysteries and suspense have grown which the first two episodes don't really show very well.

It's good. I'm not a fan of a lot of lot of the character's designs (this is a KEY show) but i grew to look past them. The first half is pretty good but kinda generic. It rockets to greatness in After Story though.
What about the eagles
They broke up in 1980.
You don't have to take it so personally. It's not that big of a deal.
Gurren Lagann: Lagann-Hen.
Oh. My. God. That final fight. I can't. I just can't handle how unbelievably epic it was. I thought the television version had a big finale, but this film retroactively destroyed that former belief. This is why anime exists. This is anime in its truest and purest form. Everyone should watch these set of films.
What are the thoughts on the Madoka Magica films? Loved the show, and after watching the Gurren Lagann films, I certainly wouldn't mind rewatching another of my beloved show as a film adaption.

Hey, you're back to the Taiga avatar! All is right with the world.

Sam was alone, he just imagined Frodo went to Mt. Doom with him.
The changes aren't as drastic as the ends of the Gurren Lagann films, but they streamline the TV series even further, and some of the new action sequences and animation in parts looks beautiful. Not to mention all those transformations.
I remember simply being dumbfounded by the art in Madoka Magica. So I'm excited to see how that is handled in the films.
Oh wait, as I read through this post, I remembered the final film isn't out in Japan yet. I'm quite curious to see how it turns out next month.

ah yeah, rocking the right thing again.
I go straight for metallica
...what? Don't be hatin'.
Twist: Bilbo is actually in a coma and is just dreaming it all.
I'm really interested in seeing the final count.
Only things from Aniplex USA today seem to be their Blu-ray release of the Blue Exorcist movie (December 17, $90 MSRP BD LE and $40 DVD) and the Magi dub cast.
Mor is Cristina Vee, Alibaba is Erik Kimerer (dub voice for Haruyuki in Accel World), and Aladdin seems to be voiced by a newbie voice actress.
edit: during the Q&A someone asked if they have Galilei Donna and got a "no comment" in response, so I guess they'll announce it later online. They've still got a couple weeks until noitaminA resumes, after all.
