putting kamina-shades on everything is such a tired out and lame internet bandwagon

Someday, I'm going to make an anime-specific thread and I expect all of you to do the honorable thing and not post in it.
Just do what I did and harass people to post their impressions in the OT instead.

Lucky you, with those words you've guaranteed a pair on your avatar.
To me it's no different from those dumb badges, game hats, or "thing""month" circle jerks.

Yeah, Azazel-san Z took a dive at the beginning but managed to make up for it in the end. I feel they should have made some of the two parters one episode long. Sometimes you felt like you were told a joke only be told you have to wait a week for the punchline by which time you really don't care about it anymore.
It felt like they were written as one full length episode each and just cut in half.

Maturity, bitches.
I tried wearing a badge on my face once. Sliding the needle under my skin was right painful though.

I still don't know why.
I mean, I always look at the last post since I'll have to click on the next page.
A lot of people just enter with the last page button, thus if you are at the bottom for a lot of people you are only viewable for the instant between that and the next page which is tiny since people hold their posts until the page is over usually to take the top post.

When I did the thread reading/posting habits survey a while ago I wavered for a long time on if I should put in a question about what people do when catching up with large numbers of posts in the thread (skip to last page, skim all, read everything thoroughly). In the end I decided against it but I guess I should have left it in.

Same pretty much.

I just read all of it. Saves time.

I usually go to whatever post was made that I last remember then skim through the rest the next day at 5 or so am making mental note of posts to respond too.
 
Well, I don't think anyone really cares about anime music here, and I know the hipsters openly shit on people who actually admit they like anime OPs and EDs. But anyways, with Spring season now over, my top OPs and EDs of Spring season are as follows:

OP:

1. fripSide - sister's noise (Toaru Kagaku no Railgun S OP1)
2. Linked Horizon - Guren no Yumiya Titan Theme Goes With Everything
3. Minami Kuribayashi - Zero!! (Hataraku Maou-sama! OP)

ED:
1. Yoko Hikasa - Utsukushiki Zankoku na Sekai (Shingeki no Kyoujin ED1)
2. ChouCho - Sora to Kimi no Message (Suisei no Gargantia ED)

Really liked the opening and ending of Nyaruko. Still I would say that Valvrave definitely had my favorite op and ed of the season.
 
Hum ..it's summer ...Animegaf night activity is much more intense than in spring or winter

Lol , no thanks .... but i'll keep it just in case.
It'll be funny if this gets out and people start wearing kamina glasses again like it's 1999 2007.
That's my main problem we're in 2013, not in 2007.

I can't do the impossible.


There is a new Love Plus game coming out for 3DS.
http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=611866
Again ? i wonder what they'll add in the gameplay this time.

And Siliconera's also saying that a High School DxD game is coming to 3DS as well, which actually surprises me, since most LN-based anime games recently have been on PSP or Vita.
Not happy about that ( because there is a high chance it won't be a proper game ) and if it's a VN , then i'd rather have it on a OLED screen.

Kingdom S2 4

this fukken guy i swear

The introduction of these other independent special units is cool and all but all I could think about was the RETURN OF THE BAD CG.

It needs to be noted that the CG now only appears in battle scenes and most of it has 2D stuff superimposed over it. Definitely a huge improvement over the first one.

Let's get this ball rolling. If you told me these were my rankings a few weeks back I would've laughed at you.

Kotori

Tohka

Shittygami

Imoutos at the top woop-woop!

BRING ON SEASON 2 FUCK YES
HELLL YEAH .
Now that ..... that is a ranking i can get behind.

So hummingbird revamped their recommendation engine:

I think it's trying to tell me I should watch Doremi
I think you should watch what you plan to watch ( Why haven't you watched full metal panic yet ? )

Why is everyone wearing kamina glasses? Did something big happen? TTGL Season 2???

That is THE QUESTION it seems.

From what I can see, the Kamina thing last night pretty much started because someone mentioned 2007 anime and it snowballed from there.
Also TTGL bluray box just released a few brave souls bought it.

So i just started watching Valvrave and it was going fine until episode 5 when they burst into song. If there was a time for a colony drop, it was then. This show is so weird and pseudo enjoyable, I'm not sure what to think.

All in due time. I have a ton of shows on my currently watching after all. My PTW is not really complete either and more of a half guideline for things I would otherwise forget to watch.

This is normal before the VVV has properly settled into your heart.

Now I'm wondering whether I should rewatch TTGL over the summer. It fits the blisteringly hot weather.

Legend of the Galactic Heroes - 97: Dying by the Sword

~ Either way, the chronicles of our lives is written in blood, no matter which page we turn to. ~


This really feels like the beginning of von Reuental's requiem. That moment he got pierced was quite impactful.
Seems like Mittermeyer won in the end. I really hope they get to meet one last time.
And I knew Grillpalzer wouldn't get what he wanted.

I feel the same way.

Hey i should complete my humming bird profile.
 
Time to play catch up with the spring season. First up?

Valvrave the Liberator - 01

I should note that I've avoided all spoilers about this series. Going in mostly dark, save for knowing people's reactions to things I don't know.

Ok. This is a show about mechs. Cool.

Oh wait.

What the fuck.

Trying out Nodame Cantabile. A show about young people and its not about 14-15 year olds. So want to smack Chiaki around. Am liking it so far though. Five episodes in.

Heh. I marathoned that last weekend in a haze of flu medication. Dunno if that made it more or less comprehensible.
