She blushes to their confession but dunno, maybe she'll finally choose someone in the last episode!
It'll probably be the harem ending

Good thing is I watch the least anime during Summer so maybe theres a reason.
Monogatari and Gatchaman in ridiculously good tier

Its not over yet. She knows which ones like her since their pretty open about it, even Wataru "hundred smooches" Asahina.

My appeal is the interesting cases, being able to solve the mystery beforehand, and the plot.
Inu to Hasami 12 END
Well, that was certainly a...unique way to handle a final episode (or indeed any episode for that matter), but at the same time I can't think of any more fitting way to end such a zany anime.
I can't honestly say this series left a huge impression on me or that I'll miss it particularly when it's gone, but it was certainly a hectic and lulsworthy ride while it lasted. In the unlikely event that it gets another season at some point, I'll gladly watch more, since I can see there's plenty of entertainment potential left in there (there were some characters who it seemed were waiting the whole season to get focus, but their turn never actually arrived...)
In conclusion: Yayoi is best girl. And that's a conclusion because I say it is.

Drunk super-dere-mode Natsuno was crazy adorable.

Rikka is the swallow. This was made quite explicit in episode 2.
But does Rikka go to Egypt!? I don't think so (Also because someone needs to fit in for Sapphire Eyes.)

Ended pretty how I expected it to, though...at least in my view. I'm good for another season of it.

Why did they never release the game here?

I'm up to episode seven of Flowers of Evil and HOLY SHIT. What is even going on!
I think I've just seen one of the most memorable scenes in an anime I have seen, and this animation and quality....man....

Look at this while listening to epic music, like Circle of Life.
So good.

Yeah usually its a bunch of the kind of stuff you'd find at FYE now.
Aria the Animation (Rewatch) Ep. 1 - 3
Oh God, this show.....it's so....so pure. Can't look directly at it.
Why can't I hold all these defibrillators?
Aria is one of the ultimate feel-good animes. So relaxing. well most of the time.
Hmmm...actually its pretty adorable so Im going to agree.
I dont care about GTA at all.

*nods sagely* Aku no Hana is certainly one of the most important anime works in the last few years.
That was a rough one.
A fantastic scene, through and through. It's where I fell in love with the series.
Love Lab - 10
This show can pretty much get away with everything for me. The cast nails the dynamic so hard.
Hells yeah Aku no Hana Episode 7.
Shingeki no Kyojin 23
Yeah, I think they handled this pretty nicely. As everyone has already said, the laugh was the one questionable decision, but I didn't think it seemed too out of place. Probably wouldn't have bothered me at all if I hadn't known in advance that it was the adaptation taking liberties. And the added scene in the first half of the episode did a really nice job of fleshing things out.
A good episode.

Diabolik Lovers Episode 1: Yea, I think I can call this True Blood: Brother's Conflict edition, though not quite as shit as either on this first outing. Still pretty fucking awful though, with bland characters and an annoying protagonist , I will credit the series for having the vampires act like vampires, even if they are still huge douchenozzles. I may give this another go around simply because other shit be ending and excluding Saikyou Ginga Ultimate Zero: Battle Spirits, the fall slate is still a few weeks away.
Yes. and I dont know, but isnt most manga black and white? was this one colored?
And you havent even seen the half of it. Literally and figuratively!
It was a fun season so far surely. Ive worked a loooooot so I havent been able to enjoy it properly
Yes that last season was a really really good one!

If we get a dueling series, I wouldn't mind watching that. Can't be worse than ZeXal.

I made it about 7 minutes before turning it off.
I don't blame you, at all.
Rikka is the swallow. This was made quite explicit in episode 2.
One thing that bothers me about Dokidoki is how sometimes their eyes seem WAY too big. Inconsistently sized eyes are the worst.
You are dedicated to your love. I admire that.
rotoscoping is such a crazy (and expensive) form of animation. It looks amazing though.
That show gave off some of the weirdest vibes ever but I liked it for that.
Uh...I find it hard to believe this could be the only show that someone likes this season. Unless you just didn't try stuff.

Well, its over. I enjoyed the ride though. I can't think of a better way to end the show than they did.
The World Only God Knows: S1-S3
So I marathoned the entire series over the weekend, catching up to the current episode yesterday. I got this show from a recomendation off of Hummingbird and I have to say they picked an amazing show for me. I absolutely love the series and I'm glad I was able to catch up to current episode. Even though there is only one episode left, I absolutely can't wait for it! Hopefully it gets picked up for another season because I would love to continue watching the adventures of the cast.

My top show of the season (not named meganebu!) already picked up, yes!, Aniplex got Samurai Flamenco (streaming and will release it on disc).

Covering graduation seems to be too much of a jump ahead, but a prelude to saying good bye one last time sounds like a perfect place to end the season anyway.

Diabolik Lovers Episode 1
They should have made Flowers of Evil episodes 14 minutes instead of making Diabolik Lovers ones 14 minutes, I was sad. Anyway, Ayato is so far one of the best characters in otome adaptations. He easily has the best lines and personality so far (sorry Toma (Amnesa), and Liberta (okay tied for one still)) and needs even more screentime. I like how he has his outfit on too and is just having a plain old good time. Yuki Kaji being there too as Kanato was pleasing though design wise one of the least good on the cast. Probably second would be Shu but kind of old and then the other one that calls her a less than pleasing name.
Kind of mixed on Pancakes status so far, though at least she tries

though why would anyone want to get out of there, especially from Ayato? I wouldnt

Well I figured Nonoha would get a title, just didn't expect it to be so early in the show. So will we ever get to some puzzles that will require all 5 title holders or will we continue to mostly have Kaito, Gammon, and Nonoha triangle of awkward love doing all the work?

You know, I actually don't mind the concept of shows like these, as long as they come with basic story telling essentials, or don't take themselves the least bit seriously. This show has neither of these, as it's basically just a vapid method for Tomokos to get their vapid yandere fix. The worst thing about the show isn't that the show looks like something made 10 years ago, or even the 2-D protagonist. It's the 1-D harem.
As someone who just recently got back into fujoshi culture, it's saddening that almost all the products geared towards them are terrible, it's even more saddening that they are eating it all up.

This was a weird episode, it was really well written and had a great finale with the prize being the nature that the grandson was destroying for his amusement park. As Kaito himself said the puzzle was no longer a philosopher's puzzle, which is fine as it works for the story this episode was telling. But all the random POG officers following Kaito and intentionally sabotaging the bridge just to kill him doesn't fit with their MO. In the end it just served as an excuse for Ana and Nonoha to show up and save him in a scene that's never mentioned again.

Hakkenden: Eight Dogs of the East Episode 24
Still makes it the canon ship with Genpachi. Hes been told about Shino so many times now and even saw him older forme.
Well with all but one gathered it did give me good times with them. If the anime could have been extended a few more episodes with everyone living longer together and such then I think it would be well on its way to being one of the most fun fantasy type series. Still sells me on the manga but we'll seemingly be over seven volumes behind

Id want to at least look up the secret Finnegan and Satomi are hiding from Shino and keep erasing/toying with his memory. What is in the past that they are protecting him from?
I prefer Ao but still that whole scene with Sosuke falling over and losing the mark was intense. How can it be resolved in the little time. Then again Ao likes to tease Shino so he'll most likely barge in for some reason.

It's not even a matter of prolonging the show. If they went faster, they'd be in serious risk of getting caught up with the manga, and there's not really any place they could put a filler arc in. They don't really have a whole lot of options in terms of how to proceed.

I don't even know what to say here. lol
And hey, it's the money shot we've all be waiting for!
I'm not really sure what to think about this series... as a silly romcom story about a hapless guy and a tsundere girl, it's functional, but the supporting cast really makes it work. Of course, there really isn't any reason why he had to turn into a dog.
