Finished Fate/Zero yesterday, what an ending to a great anime.
Seeing Kiritsugu digging through the rubble just to save that one life after everything he had done was just such a powerful and emotional scene. Those final episodes starting with Kiritsugu's backstory is just so good and I can't believe I never watched this anime until now.

I'm gonna write up longer impressions for it later, but now I need to start a new anime. I thought Psycho-Pass, but I got 10 minutes in and realized I need a break off the depressing, so I thought it would finally be time to check out Idolm@ster or something.
Glad you enjoyed it easily one of my top 5 anime. Shame fsn has little chance of cracking top 15.

Now unto convincing people to watch the berserk movie trilogy. Because if I have to suffer with the next films never being released I would at least hope others suffer with me.
 
Eureka Seven - 14

Not sure how I feel about this new OP. Eh, it'll probably grow on me later.

Technically this was a recap episode, but at least it provided some extra character insight. Sort of, anyway.

This Coralian thing is still coming off as "some weird shit that nobody really understands". I hope a clear explanation is given about it soon. It better not be clearly explained like how Gundam 00 clearly explained Aeolia Schenberg's plan.
That is to say, not clearly explaining it at all.

Watch something like Non non Biyori to replace the darkness with sweetness.

NIce to see you liked it, and stupid Kiritsugu! Little does he know he has given life to one of the worst greatest protag to ever exist.


Miki is best idol. Do not believe BGBW's lies.

Nahh I haven't even seen the show, but kung-fu tomboy girl is.

Miki is the worst.

I agree with mike.

Does anybody know/remember where the original gif of this is from? This is an edit of another character but the gif came from some show and I cant think of what it was.

Then simply dont bother explaining it.
I don't think you comprehend how much I care about keeping my image with irl people lol. I'm a geek but I'm supposed to be a cool geek. If they knew that in a full moonlight I turn into an Otaku they'd all silently judge me. Once anime is as cool as comic book films then I'll be more open about it.

I made the realisation that it was a horrible idea to google-fu "anime loli bang gif".

Damn, just read the rumour about Shaft animate the food porn anime. I hope it's true.

Happy Cooking Graffiti by Shaft would be great.
For a second I thought you meant actual porn. I already got a flashback to the shafty hentai Shinbou did @.@
In case we need re-enforcement

Awww. I really got to get back to wachting the show.

I agree with mike.

I'm a better idol than Miki ;P
Consider your avatars stolen.

Guys, don't fight.
You're both wrong. Miki is decent and Hugstable can decide for himself that Makoto is best Idol.Mokoi gets it.
You're right. Hugs will clearly choose Miki so I really have nothing to worry about.

After reverse searching it, the only thing I have other than Touhou is Rance IX, but that feels like an incorrect tag. The original Pixiv tags don't say anything either...

Oh look. youre absolutely correct without even watching it. Anyone still doubts Makoto's power?

If you are lying about yourself to people then what good is that? Be honest with people who you are. Most people who arent assholes by nature will still accept you.

Loool yeah those terms should not be researched together!

I'm honest with my besties and some of them even watch shows with me. Gonna watch katanagatari with one after we finish the last airbender seasons. But it's a dark secret. We all have our own shame. Mine just happens to uguuu~

Aren't society bounds wonderful?

I am pretty open with everything I do, be it anime, comics, cartoons, movies or hentai and people are generally very accepting, a jab here and there, but that's something I can live with. Well, I am have no job where that would be important (call center job, I don't communicate much with my colleagues and I certainly won't push my hobbys on the people I call), but I see melonpan living the dream.
Does Kotaku sell the anime dvds or what?
 

BGBW

Maturity, bitches.

Yeah, I saw the Rance tag as well but since I'm at work I didn't want to search any further down that field. Well at least Cajun found what he wanted.

I watched the first episode of this and it was some of the most generic stuff ever.
I have to say at least, the protagonist is so stoic, that it'S really funny. She is really like your silent RPG character who most of the time just stares at people that talk.
Why can't I find that mexican stand-off scene nowhere?!

@chariot: I'm gonna be an engineer in an oil company position in the south. That's as conservative as you get I'll hide my shame from everybody.
You can make the difference. Free the animefans in the south and found the United States of Animerika!

There are things worth fighting for. Lgbt rights. Keeping as much of my money. Animal cruelty punishment. Helping your fellow man. Your right to party. I don't know if my right to talk about slice of life being great this season is worth fighting for.

Saint Seiya Omega 73-83


  • Lancers are seemingly fated to job in anime. Moribito was the exception that proves the rule
  • My money is on Subaru being Chronos. Or Cronos. There's apparently a difference. themoreyouknow.gif
  • Well hello
    Ikki. Oh, goodbye Ikki
    You would think that his brother and the others would get used to him dying on them 2 times in an arc.
  • Shun is still a pacifist moron.
  • If you go through all that trouble to dig up original Steel Saints from whatever hole they hid themselves in for 15 years, you should at least use their bad ass theme.

Maybe it's my eternal hard on for golds but this was, ever so slightly, better than the preceding episodes. They're going hard for my nostalgia by bringing all those old characters back. Of course they couldn't help themselves and did another "to reach our enemy we have to split and go through 4 paths." That's like, your plot device in every fucking arc and movie. The OST has a few really good tracks but they're ruining them through repetition.

Kill la kill

Been watching it on and off for about a month, but decided to just finish it off today. Fun show in the end, but not as amazing as I was hyped up for. Primarily disappointed that it just turned out to be a
"humanity surviving against an alien force"
premise in the end. Thought that it could do a lot more with the whole "people aren't cut from the same cloth" motif but that just got overshadowed by
aliens taking over the world.
Also just didn't think that the action is all that great, especially at the beginning, where it's a lot of flash with no substance, often ending with ryuko winning by suddenly discovering a powerup. Final bits were fun but that's mostly because they amped the craziness on the actions, while my old complaints still remain.

What I do like though are the characters. Ryuko is kinda eh honestly but I really enjoyed her growing interactions with senketsu. I thought the way they developed their relationship is the highlight of the show, and what made it work for me. Mako is pretty awesome as well, and I just generally like most of the show's cast. Going to miss Nonon. :(

Music is pretty awesome as well, which is a pretty rare thing for me to think about when it comes to anime.

The Coralian is the central sci-fi concept of the entire show, you'll be be able to gradually put the pieces together, but it won't be fully explained for a while
