Oh it's on bear senpai
edit: apparently this image is only hilarious for me because dogs.
I believe that one day Studio 8 will deliver on something that isn't hebephile b8.
shaft is the best studio. Period.
I dunno but I want to see it.
So much violence awaits you. So very much.
Yeah that was pretty clever. Hence why he is AWEOSMEBEAR.
It certainly has that kind of feel to it.
Shampoo is amazing. One of the first girls in anime that I squeed about.
Maybe she even caused my cute obsession.
This is completely and utterly ridiculous.
ooooh I might watch this. My bet is on Madhouse.
Anime is some pretty exhausting stuff. After a marathon session I fall asleep so fast. If not in the middle of it.
Whaaaaat in the hell?
Me too! I always loved that studio.
BAD DOG.
Though if you just mean Femmeworth no she would really hate it.
But NGNL is awesome and fun. Animegaf loves it.

Somebody here said it was like Final Destination the anime so that's why

Just for a laugh, this is how terrible the censoring in episode 2 of Tokyo Ghoul got:

Tokyo Ghoul have some weird as fuck fluids too. It was too much like this:

Personally I love Shaft. They may have more misses than hits overall, but they gave me Hidamari Sketch, Zetsubou Sensei, and Madoka. I even enjoyed the Monogatari series (Well, not all of it. Can't stress enough how much I loved Koimonogatari, though). That's good enough for me!
As for Trigger, Little Witch Academia was fun and lively. Looking forward to the second one!
I don't think so. It would feel weird since one episode would essentially be a set up for the next.
But...

Is that avatar from Barakamon, just wondering.
Sorry, I just had to.
Hey, I did say more misses than hits!

Shaft isn't popular just because of their best show Madoka Magica.
They also did the popular Monogatari anime as well. I hear a lot of praise for that around here.
Not only that, they're also responsible for the widely acclaimed Hidamari Sketch. You won't watch it for obvious reasons though. That's just mainly where most of fan's love for this studio comes from.
Sorry, I just had to.
Idk if I was the only one, but I though Mekaku clearly appeared to be way low budget even by SHAFT standards. Left me wondering how much they're going to clean up the BDs because it was clear that most of the labor went into Nisekoi.

Just when I erased that crime against humanity in head... I really hope they fix this in the BDs.
Sorry, I just had to.

If by "clean up the BDs" you mean "Add a new light filter and different colored shoelaces" then yeah, it'll look great
Damned right!
Oh it's on bear senpai
Ok that was hilarious.
I like hidamari, Madoka, Denpa Onna, Moonphase, Soredemo, Nisekoi, Vampire bund, Arakawa, Mekaku city actors, Popotan, Pani Poni, Monogatari series
Theres way more to love about them than to hate.
They always choose really fun and interesting source material and they have a unique style of presenting it.
They do complete redraws a lot of the time too. Which is nuts.

How many spots are we reserving for Soredemo?

Well it should be there. I mean, I always kinda assumed it was the big magnum opus of that company considering the huge following it got. What tops it?

That reminds me, GSC announced at AX that they're making a few figures based on Little Witch Academia. HYPE!
Just caught that myself; gave me a laugh! Hopefully that leak about the season 3 BDs coming here in November is true.

They have an eternal free pass from me for that series as well as Sayanora Sensei and Madoka.
What is your top five of Shat's?
Basileus777

Soredemo Machi wa Mawatteiru
Natsu no Arashi
Sayonara Zetsubō Sensei
Maybe Monogatari
Some people would include Hidamari Sketch.
The first season of Hidamari is one of the ugliest things I have ever seen.

Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei is the only show I'd rank above Madoka, and specifically because of season 1. Unless I'm not thinking of an obvious show I love right now.
edit: just remembered Soredemo. So yeah. That then SZS. Then Madoka.
You were like a German to my Brazilian.
Winning wasn't enough you had to make me your bitch. Well congratulations. You basteh'd

Damn it, I was about to go for that joke.
Speaking of Madoka, I started rewatching it two months ago. I stopped after a few episode for whatever reason.
Pornomonogatari would have been higher up for me if I wouldn't have to be afraid of being put on a watch list for it.

How many of the 5 slots are for Arakawa Under The Bridge?
Of course they're not! They're not well animated at all. I love them despite that. They both do still have style despite their limited animation, and are filled with enjoyable characters. Zetsubou Sensei in particular I love for its sense of playfulness. They always liked trying new (but very silly) things in its episodes, like the episode where they continually switched voice actors around, or the episode where the characters appeared as paper cutouts (done by Shaft's friends at Gekidan Inu Curry). It's not groundbreaking stuff, but it's fun, and made me laugh more often than not. Things definitely started slowing down once they reached season three though, which is why I'm glad they're giving Sensei a rest.

I can understand dropping it after the first two but I don't know how could stop after the third episode.

If only the whole series was about Kaiki.
Seriously! I love that man. It's ridiculous how much more interesting he is compared to Araragi. I want another arc starring him. Make Usomonogatari for real!
all of them

I wonder if there's a ranking of studios by how many consistently good shows they've made. I mean on the internet the word 'good' is subjective, but still curious.

Persona4 the Golden ANIMATION 1
you know, maybe it's because I vastly prefer the dub version, or perhaps it's because of the liberties it takes with the story, or hell it might even be the inferior soundtrack but...
As a massive Persona 4 fan I though this was fucking awful.
And that makes me really sad.
The sub vs. dub thing isn't gonna change, but I hope the rest of this improves in the coming episodes or it's gonna be a massive stain on one of my favourite games ever.
