...I can't even begin to fathom the amount of hilarity in this episode. There's just no words. The trolling, the fanservice, the reactions, it was all brilliant comedy. That censorship joke man...That friggin' censorship joke.

I don't even know what else to say, this episode was just one big barrage of awesome comedy fanservice, so I guess I'll leave it at that.

So this world is ruled by this Spiral King dude. Can't wait to see what he looks like.

Hey it's that guy from episode 3! So wait, who is he again? I honestly forgot his name. I don't know if that was intentional from the writers. Introduce a villain and have him disappear for three episodes and have the characters forget about him along with the audience. Nice.

Hagan and Kibamaru's thing master and partner leads to funny moments (Kibamaru's everyday clothes outfit is stylish). Though Kibamaru's past and the past presented by
Pahn
make me somewhat saddened to have not been able to see all that transpired for the conclusion to season 1. Though with
Pahn's appearance
I wonder if
Wallens and Pollon get to appear this season?

Comparatively lower profile and higher-speed than standard X-Wing... that and solely using the TIE Advanced or the robust 'Star Wing' for online matches, only those nuts or wanting to suffer (or exceptional players) used the bulk, mass-produced fodder TIEs.

I forgot all about the Advanced!

I'm quite surprised by this adaptation .... this episode , while low on events was a set-up for more info to come.

The most pleaseant thing however was the voices of the new characters introduced that matched properly with their characters. I'm very satisfied by this choice, palm in particular.

I CANNOT WAIT to hear the voice of the

This will be glorious on all levels.

Maou-sama 13 END

Didn't really feel like a finale (though that little post-credits scene was obviously thrown in to give the series some semblance of closure just in case it doesn't get an S2), but whatever, I'm just hoping that means S2. Seriously, S2 fucking when?

Such a great show, though, and definitely my show of the season. #TeamEmi! :D

Litrally 75% was recap, but it was great to run through every single Final Burst scene. Apart from Thunderclap Ascension the Supersonic Bullet is my favorite one.

For the non recap parts, good place they are going for the future
Just need the Souta and Kakeru todoroki plot to be resolved and them to make good on their promise and join forces, and with the Moebius engine now, am kind of hyped to see its hi ougi. Saki as Eraser Queen and the other three, are good enemies for whenever Eraser 01 plot gets resolved.

If there are people who dropped this because of the rotoscoping or whatever, then I'm sorry. They missed out on what is basically the Hyouka of this season year.

Called that right.

It's nice to have Naive optimism with that
SECOND SEASON LOL
card but we all know it ain't happening (and with good reason).

They had their chance and they blew it so hard they caused a natural disaster.

Season 2 when.
Click to expand...
If the previous episode hadn't killed me already this definitely would have. [REDACTED] Seriously these people are out to kill me.
Overal I enjoyed this. I watched it as a sort of pick me up cute show and it delivered just that so I can only be happy about it.
It got really confusing at times though and it does need a second season to conclude things but I suppose the later was inevitable.

Muromi-san 13 END

Yep, that certainly was a final episode alright. I guess. Like Maou-sama, they certainly left it open for a second season, though I'm not sure that this one has the same prospects of getting a S2 that Maou does.

Great show, though. The reduced length meant it never overstayed its welcome, and just about every episode managed to stay consistently funny.

HNNNNNNNNNNNNNNG MY HEART, I CAN'T

The story was confusing as shit at times, but I'll be damned if it wasn't the most adorable show I've ever seen. Not sure if it'll ever get a S2 (though some things were never cleared up, like
Tsutsukakushi never getting her emotions back...wait, was that even a thing she was trying to do?)
, but I'd love to see one. Also,
psuedo-harem
end? That's okay I suppose. Even though
best girl won. Dat kiss, hnnnnnnnnnng
.

And with that, all my spring shows are finished. Great season for me, much better than Winter was. Now bring on Summer! :D

EDIT: Shit, double post. Ah well.

Railgun S - 12

Lots of talking for this episode and we probably won't get into the "meat" of the fight until ep 14.

Still it was enjoyable.

But they sure are taking their time with this arc. i expected them to treat 2 arcs with this season , not 1 + filler...

A shame railgun has such a pacing even if they do have more material to process.

This project started as a simple static landing page with a simple form that redirect to Google. Since I am currently a NEET at this time and boredom is my number one enemy I decided to code this and it eventually became a bit more sophisticated with features such as Doodles, News accouncements, Theming, Wordpress user-defined functions, image search, etc.

What a way to wrap up events !

I still don't understand what the hell is with this cat god or what the show true purpose is , but that was a nice episode and a nice conclusion.

CUTTEST SHOW OF THE YEAR

I'm serious it'll be hard to top this one.

This cat god is a powerfull tool , but i don't want it near my house , seeing as there aren't clear rules on how wishes are granted, this is in fact a huge pain. And it just keep getting more confusing everytime someone makes a wish. It goes to the point where i'm doubting whever the writter knows how it'll end.

Kingdom 2 - Episode 4

Ou is good design and a nice competitor or rival for Shin.
Spear skill seems great in concept, I cant imagine how intense and powerful it is when used in battle with the pointed side.
. This one year to the battle should be interesting if other characters and events can continue to come to Shin.
Somehow I thought he was actually the only one with a special unit, so seeing this one and potentially many more will help make this a long journey. Maybe he can ally with some?

GUNMEN FOR EVERYBODY!

So after that….very stupid and reckless move on Kamina’s part, the ultimate fighting force is formed and the rebellion is only beginning! I’m getting a lot of Code Geass vibes from this show. Only this time, it’s more fun and less serious. Which I’m always down for!

I’m beginning to wonder how many times they can keep stealing these gunmen. Surely the enemy must be developing a way to counter this? But what do I care? When the hell is Yoko gonna get her Gunman?

So, looks like we’re going to have an massive battle on our hands next episode!

So another slightly incomprehensible comedy manga, I guess? I read the first chapter and one of the main jokes revolves around a TV ad for a discounted cellphone plan from Softbank, so I'm not sure how well this one stands alone out of context.

But I guess it must be pretty good with a Manga Taisho nomination to its name!

The comedy isn't really consistent, but I just appreciate the aesthetics and the settings of the story.

Honestly, I wouldn't put much weight into the Manga Taisho awards, it's mostly hit or miss. I mean sure sometimes they recognize a good manga like Umimachi Diary and gives it the award, but then you see them nominating mediocre manga like Assassination Classroom or Terra Formars and you just have to wonder what's going on in their heads when they made these nominations.

Forgot to mention, the full version of Shingeki's OP is awful. This was like free money straight into the bank and they fucked it up badly.
