Persona 4 The Animation episodes 6+7
Finally getting back to this since Golden is airing today, the anime is pretty funny and adds some interesting things that the game lacks like actually showing Aiya's daughter. Too bad it looks atrocious and feels so rushed, also I'm still pissed about how they treat Ai's suicide attempt as a joke.

I hope the Golden Yu is a deadpan character like his predecessor, it was probably the only thing that the previous adaption did right.

The CG during the performances is so bad...it's really distracting. The Shinsengumi seem like they'll be good rivals for the rock band. I kinda love how unapologetically yandere Okita is, I guess girls do eat that shit up over there.

It got voted as the third most popular movie/OVA in that NeoGAF anime of the year 2013 thing.

I finished up Fate/Zero. Overall, the second season is a grade above the first season. I'm tempted to play Fate/stay night now but I'm probably better off waiting for the new anime.

F/Z is a good story about bad men and their bad decisions. F/SN is a bad story by bad writers and their bad decisions. :(

Inevitable F/SN thread should use that as its subtitle.

Fate/Stay Night TV Anime (2014) |OT| A bad story

But then you'd just get the incessant whinings of Nasu stans being all salty over the "negative" title.

The hardest thing about going from F/Z to F/SN will be the awkward tone. Instead of an institutionalized power grab war filled with trained professional adults who have their own motives and ambitions, the story "continues" as a shonen power fantasy about some dumb kid with no backbone who chances upon magical powers and finds himself surrounded by girls who also have magical powers and want his dick bad. :/

Surely the new adaptation will bring the latter closer to the former. Right?

The hardest thing to overcome is to make Shiro's persuasion to Saber not came across as offensive, that very impossible task lol

Just announce omnibus format already jebus.

Well as I've said before I preferred that over the grimdarkness of F/Z. And frankly this new version I expect to pretty much all grimdark all the time. Which is exactly the kind of thing I'm not wanting.

Plus, everyone is dumb and incable, which is the only reason Shiro isn't dead after the first encounter. Heck, we have
two people who are not even mages, two masters that aren't even a real master and the king of dicks.

How else could they do it? I honestly think people will be disappointed.

obv by not having Saber take Shirou's "girls can't fight" shit seriously. They sort of managed that in the first TV Reproduction compilation but having such a tiny runtime probably helped more than anything as they could trim so much fat without regret.
