Really nice art! Also perhaps you should set up a charity fund. I'll donate 50 cents max though.

This show continues to have an unusual but pleasing mix of anti-authority (or at least one cartoonish authority. This isn't AKB0048, but it's the closest thing I've found to it), hijinks and idol culture, with some of Moriwaki's weird humor coming into play. Like how Mirei bootcamps Lala into handshake practice. With a giant mechanical octopus that shoots ink at you if you fail. It's not that kind of anime.
The scenes with Gloria stroking her vaccuum are also being played the same way a hunter would fondle his gun. From the looks of things, not even a complicated series of charts and graphs by Mirei can break her shell just yet. The charts noticeably had no legible text on them. Is this because there's some co-production going on here? If Meganee is who she acts just like she is, we have an interdimensional wardrober instructing young girls to join the independent state of idoldom. I'm not sure if it's just Lala's school that's like this, and going by Sofie's performance on TV, the first non-OP song played, they're as popular as anyone in the Aikatsu universe. Not a bad song. All these brand names for the clothes make me think they're really trying to compete with Aikatsu.
Sofie herself
Now I'm glad we're getting somewhere into what this franchise does best. Ridiculous finishing moves. Or Making Drama as they're called here. Lala's giant pizza box was quirky, but not "I am figuratively reshaping the universe" level just yet. So I continue to sing the praises of Pretty Rhythm. The only show this season where a girl has promised to go "Screw you, principal" and aims to be a God-level idol, and then acts like a goat and eats pages of her own notebook out of fear.

Sofie herself
is a bit of a slob in her home life, apparently. Lala's the only one who doesn't fundamentally change inside idol world, at least from what the show's shown so far.

It really is surreal seeing how much of this thread has changed one year after I became a regular. So many people have left and so many new faces have joined in since then.
I remember when Regulus was a regular here. Oh, the memories...

You get used to it after seven years.
We have a title and key visual for KinMosa season 2.
This one is titled Hello!! Kiniro Mosaic. No airdate has been given yet. Can't wait. I love that we get new anime based on these kinds of shows almost every season - even if it's only one show - and it's even better that both this and Non Non Biyori got sequels.

Just turf wars. At least you're not all shifty like K-ON gaf.
It's still hilarious to me that they're supposed to be high school students.
Greatest .gif ever.
The sooner I get more KinMosa the better.
nah. Im good
that painting mistake on the tail
I prop up my keyboard on tea boxes so I have room to sketch.
peer pressure
I can hear the squeees from 5 states away.
Use boxes of ammo.
Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
*hugs it
can somebody grab that background image? I neeeeeed it
Whaaaaat? Im not shifty

To be fair, the death note was a far cleaner method than whatever terrorists get their hands on. It's pretty easy for your plans to have few holes when your way of terrorism only requires you to describe when and how the death will occur. Though I guess TiR is more of a game than Death Note was. The TiR protagonist's goal is pretty clear that they want to topple the government with the warnings to diminish the death, but just challenging enough that the bomb goes off before they can stop it. Also, it's not like the police are brilliant in either show. In Death Note, L did the main thinking. In this show, it seems the half-retired cop will be the main thinker.

Tokyo ESP 2
The concept of how they get their powers is interesting though I think that qualifies the powers as magic or Superpowers over ESP. In terms of plot, it is sort of interesting but probably not the summer's greatest

Reading the synopsis for it I was so baffled.
That's a series I wanted a movie. I put it on my series list though.

Blood: The Last Vampire
Sword of the Stranger
Redline
I think those would suit your needs. Did you ever see Ghost in the Shell?
Seen Sword of the stranger and LA blue girl is what? Octopus porn?
Patlabor
i think its sex martial arts
Redline looks good thanks.

I almost recommended that but I didn't think it would meet their needs. It has mecha but it isn't exactly blood pumping.
I stand corrected.
One of my favs seen them multiple times.

A joke suggestion.
Yeah I'm going to also recommend Redline. I haven't seen too many old school movies, so can't really give you any suggestions.
your only weakness is cute
Thats true. It is a considerable weakness.

Oh ok, if you liked Patlabor you should give You're Under Arrest a try.
Yessssssssssss yes yes yes
My biggest complaint is that they used a Eureka AO gif. That's false advertisement!
