Naru's Yura-like insecurity is actually one of the strong points for me. It adds a somewhat more noticeable undercurrent of drama to the proceedings. I say somewhat because I feel that's always been present in Kirara series and things like them. Just because it occurs over a series of sketches doesn't mean it was never not there. She stumbles, she falls, she fails. But she can get better, and that's why I want to cheer her on. An audience of one can have more impact than a crowd of thousands, and a little bit of effort a stronger emotional push than an effortless, flawless, emotionless show-off. This is just as much the potential of anime, and of stories.

When quoting goes wrong. Fixed.
Yes from Smash bros Melee.
I'm sure stuff like this are rare occurrences, but when you hear them it's just... Damn. That's like slave labor except she's doing it out of her own free will.

Lol that's hilariously gold. Like the entire game there could've been bad sitcom jokes.

thi was a lot of fun, reminds me of my little monster before it shoot itself in the foot but way better. and there is zero chance this one can go ina similar zzz direction. The characters maybe not original but look unusual to me in a good way, they're fun to watch
probably how mangaka san should've been too instead of panties panties panties ...
terror 1
probably the most well made episode of this season.
looks like a list show even if turns out bad...
this is how you recruit, actually felt authentic.
maybe I missed something but doesn't look like these guys would kill anybody to me, not even the girl there if she refused, maybe I'm way off after ep2 though. they come off as crazy but with a goal. don't think the show is a bloody one except the mcs killed off in the end of course...

On the one hand it sounds lazy, on the other we have some interesting gender equality.

A Wii game that never made it outside of Japan. Apparently it was really fun and starred some Nintendo characters in it like Birdo and Little Mac.
Oh, never heard of it.
Well if Nintendo themselves don't intend to have him recognized more, why should I?
That's nuts. How can anyone put up with that?
With all the husbandos and waifus, you could have made a soap opera too.
Lucina is a distant descendant of Marth.
Sinon isn't for sale or trade. Ill go down in flames before I lose this.
Robin has both male and female versions too which is nice.
You know, it's trademark Miyazaki that his thought process isn't "hey, maybe I really should get another color check artist lined up as soon as I possibly can" but rather "eh, she's been working her ass off this far and that somewhat gives me pause, but surely she can keep doing it." Also ties into the failure of Ghibli to properly develop new talent.

I don't think it's as rare as you'd think. A number of Asian countries are known for their insane working hours and Japan is no exception. The anime industry is pretty notorious for this kind of thing, and I've heard plenty of similar stories out of game developers.
After those previous eye-opening experiences, one has to wonder why the studio Mr. Miyazaki himself funded along others could let someone like Yoshifumi Kondō go to work with punctured lungs and suffering a extreme pain, until this finally took its toll and killed him in the long run.
I love Sakuras giant bows. Oh my god I love those.
Shes not an original design but she is perfect for the show ^^

A good idea from you and a worthy addition to the collection.

Setokai yakuindomo Bleep *- OAV 01
This oav didn't have nearly enough uomi in it but the rest was good , in particulary this scene:
It's been a while but it's still the same old stuff , great if you like it , still bad if you don't "get" it.
wait..that's not

I don't even know why i know the answer to that riddle.
Real Answer :the SYD answer is of course different.Mouth, nose , ears
Dammm! Now those are terrible working conditions. Just why continue though. Surely there most of been some other job that allowed more sleep available somewhere. Guess she really felt compelled to do it. I just don't understand the mindset of someone who would put up with that. Also screw that studio head. There had to have been someone else who could of helped even just a little bit. This quote also rubs me the wrong way.
I don't really know how to explain it, but it kind of pisses me off. Maybe because I would expect someone saying, that no one should even have to work that hard.
True, but he says how he became more complicit in the arrangement.
I was aware of some Asian countries for these kind of practices. And I knew that Japan had these problems in the video game industry judging from images of desks from Gran Turismo 5 development and how Sakurai worked on Melee and now for Wii U/3DS. I just didn't think it was so widespread.

Okay, well, so I guess Miyazaki did literally kill someone. That sounds like gross negligence on his part.
<3 Oshima. Although the music itself was recorded at the Russian State Symphony Cinema Orchestra instead. But yes, she has a working relationship with music recording at Paris, might have something to do with that.Yeah, that surprised me a lot as it seemed a rather "luxurious" way of spending the government's money.
Maybe Michiru Ōshima was the one who actually recommended them doing it, as she has lived and worked in Paris for a long time doing music recording at the same studios, and helping in sound post-production in general.
Or in Oshii's case, a single good night's sleep.

Maybe it's the Mayayan factor, maybe it's gap moe, but whatever it is, if Futaba is so confident that she's turning down her attractiveness, it's not working on the viewer. Her current sloppy self is pretty cute as it is. And the appeal going on here is actually very similar to what's going on with Naru in the show before her, even if it's expressed in a different way. That journey to self-confidence. And so far, I'm not seeing any hints of irony or sarcasticness in this. It's got a lot of heart. The drama can go in whatever direction it pleases, what's important is that the emotional core remains. And it may very well remain there because I am very biased and optimistic, but I trust the series itself to do so as well.
It's got a pretty nice OP, but the lack of definite episode titles slightly annoys me. That's about as minor a complaint as one could get, though.

Cheerful song there.
Total chaos, the backstory for two characters and that poor car at the end
Time for some big battles now then? Get hype.

Interesting to see Yaya's perpective on this and how she's viewed her friendship with Naru over the years. But of course the best part was:
Indeed Haru, indeed.

I thought it was well known that asians and particularly Japanese worked their asses off. Its just the culture it seems. workaholics.
Yes its the brilliant Love Lab creators.
I wager it could get better!

FUNimation is at least acknowledging the fact that they are working on getting episodes of Barakamon and Sengoku Basara: Judge End available.

Thinking about it, did Woofington start posted after Extollere took his break? Oh boy, fun times ahead.
We know they licensed Jinsei too, and that series looks like one I'd want to watch. Whatever caused the delay, hope it's fixed ASAP.
And also curious about whatever CR's last acquisition is.
Woofington resisting his destiny.

Nah I didn't have the pleasure. I'm sure he's a great guy and his discussion on the hentai panel got my interest. Plus with no lewd images rule it should be a sfw venture. The most he should get from me is plz no and unamused puppy responses. Both so original I know.

Hurr hurr hurr. Now we're going with English 101 burns. Dis thread u gais.
Saint Seiya Omega 63-73
I do sincerely hope they will kill Subaru once he serves whatever his purpose in this plot is. Annoying brat. At least finally the golds showed up in force.
Asmita and Shaka laugh at all those peasants longing for 8th sense/Omega.
Rurouni Kenshin 2
zzzzzzzz Goofy, childish and dull in extreme. Took me a few tries to get through it.
Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-Kun 1-2
Not my usual cup of tea but it was pretty good. Loved the reaction faces and the gags were pretty good as well.
Christ, coming back to it after exactly a year and it's even poorer than I remember it being. Character/ Cloth design, low production values, "Burn my Cosmo !/ Power of friendship battles and that terrible writing. Even watching it when browsing isn't easy. Looking back, it probably wasn't the best choice for my 2nd modern anime. lol
Saint Venus to the rescue.

The meta commentary is killing me. I love how it recognises its stupidity, its almost like its taking the mick out of C3 bu and rightly so. Very funny show!

Girls and Panzer Kore ga Hontou no Anzio-san Desu !
This was fantastic.
Fantastic.
I don't know what was the most intresting ... the cheer amount of detail when it came to food and the anzio team. The fact that they care so much about food , having fun that tankery is in third place .. But damn it was so intresting to watch.
Yukari infiltration skills are yet again , unmatched Her editing skills are also SPECTACULAR.
So happy to see a regular training session by orai and the little touches here and there made a perfect blend between this and the Final episodes.
On a technical side , there was much care to blend properly the CG and the 2D and i'm honnestly surprised they managed to get this result , the reloading fight was impressive and so fun to watch
I'm 200% behind the friendship between caesar and Carpaccio...Good friendship like that is lost these days.
Overall this was MAGNIFICENT , fantastic even i'd even argue that this oav was a excellent "missing link" that got restored.
Thumb UP

I don't think working conditions such as those described there are anything commendable at all. There are other ways for people to enjoy and apply themselves to their craft without having to go through physical and mental torture in the process.
