It's really worth a watch anyways. Even if it does fall later off, I'm certainly not regretting the ride. Really great setting and characters make it worthwhile.
Sounds like it's be up my alley! I'll be sure to post my impressions of the show when I get to it.
Just finished Anohana and man that ending.
Oh god, I *remember* that ending. It wrecked me almost as much as parts of Punpun.
I haven't seen this show in a few years, and I instantly remember this song.
I definitely think youll find entertainment. It parodies so many shows too.
Its absolutely crazy sometimes.
I've grown increasingly concerned that Hito may have actually been a ghost all this time and your watching Doremi finally gave him peace enough to pass on.

Man look at those Tokyo Ghoul manga sales. Most of the Vol. are in the rankings.

Imagine if the anime was adapted faithfully, would of had more sales.

Never thought i'd see the day when someone ask for more shiro in a fate stay night anime.
Oh shit, I didn't make that connection at all. It does seem really silly. I haven't watched the episode yet, but IIRC from the manga Illya just says it without thinking through the implications. Yeah, Illya's an idiot. :V
Shirou is just a normal guy in Prisma Illya so I guess it's not that weird that he doesn't appear that much. He still manages to get a harem anyway lol.
Shiro hasn't said anything stupid in this anime. He's actually the most normal person in the whole show. Plus it's funny that all the girls love him even though he hasn't done anything to earn it.

Breaking News: Firehawk to perform orchestral version of Secret Base.
Agree 100%. Something doesn't have to be the great anime ever to not suck. Are there better anime out there in a variety of categories? Sure. But for decent visuals and a competent story the show is hardly unwatchable, especially for just 12 episodes. I do hope season 2 adequately builds on it. If not I'm not sure if I'd stick with it. But if they continue to flesh out threads intro'ed in season 1 it could actually be pretty good.
A shame that she lost her intelligence from FSN but I guess that isn't the point of the show. Shiro isn't horrible so far in this anime so I'd like more. It's actually a good chance to show the sibling relationship between Illya and Shiro since that aspect wasn't explored all that well in FSN. It's not really a good idea to expect much from this show so that probably won't happen.

I've actually paused my Doremi watch because of his inactivity.
Just waiting for him to get back so he can watch more Black Jack.

The word "competent" has lost all meaning. A competent story doesn't have unintentionally hilarious dramatic moments.

Let's have a drunken tantrum and then come back the next day like nothing happened. I'll just bring over all my stuff and move in without asking. Yea, okay...

and to think you still haven't gotten to the point the drama goes to absolute batshit insane "how can we fuck up all of their lives even more?" levels.

Yeah and I personally wouldn't call the visuals competent either. In fact, I was constantly baffled how smudged/grimy everything looked. Also falling under visuals are the character designs which were so simple and similar that I was often troubled telling characters apart.
Well, it didn't help that the show did a terrible job at telling you who's who in the first place. I actually rewatched the first episode because I felt like I missed the names being dropped. But the first episode really doesn't introduce you well to the characters at all. There's like 15 of them before you finally get a specific name.
But back to the character design... so many clones. And
I loved how the 'actual Clones' of those elder characters didn't look like their own self, but like someone else image. Like what the hell was that all about?
Now I could go on and on about other issues as well, but instead I'll just add that I felt like the sum of this show is worse than any single part.
This is a complication caused by adaptation decay, actually. In the manga version of season one she wasn't venting on Miyu but rather freaking out because of her power overload that she didn't understand. Because this whole thing was simplified because they didn't know if there would be a season two, they shifted it from Illya fearing her own abilities to a Miyu v. Illya conflict.
Here they're playing it as the manga did, but it's repeating elements of the S1 conflict.

Time to watch the movie!Just finished Anohana and man that ending.
Again!! 2
With the arrival of best girl, there's no reason to scrub any more. As an adaptation they seem to be doing basically the safe page-by-page thing. It might be worth checking out the last episode just to see how they bother ending the series.
(Which reminds me to watch the Yamada and the Seven Witches ending at some point).

Main girl always wins! You just have to hope that main girl = best girl (like in, say, Ano Natsu).
I'd tag quote here, but to add at least something further to the discussion I'd have to say I disagree and while it won't win any awards at the same time you're being hilariously dramatic about it as well.
To each their own I suppose. The show was harmless, though hardly offensive as some would suggest. Yawn.
i don't think she wins either if what i've read about the dumb ending is true
oh god i'm curious about this now...

I showed dresden the raw ending, but of course neither of us can read it. It makes it look like she wins anyway.
She was so boring. Just couldnt like her. She was like an inferior Mizuho.

Man firehawk and I are agreeing on something. Fuck that friendzoned girl who
friendzoned the guy who was into her (who coincidentally was an awesome playboy bro).

But the best girl was Lemon.

By that logic, Oreki should have ended up with his sister!
Only if I care about who "wins."

For a romcom, that's basically the whole point.
In that sense, there's definitely a voice being expressed.
