If the anime for Tokyo Ghoul isn't doing it for you. Read the manga from the very beginning trust me. As it stands now the anime is good as a standalone but compared to the manga it's not that good.

Weird, I thought parasyte had an anime already.
the whole thing is playing out quite a bit different from the manga in general. with a number of changes making characters seem dumber than they are portrayed in the manga :/
in the manga:
the father is already dead, the mother greving decides to leave a mask at his grave which the doves track down and then link to her, and then they go to find her cornering her and her daughter.
in the anime:
we see the father get killed, see the detectives randomly searching people and then see the daughter smell the father, absentmindedly run off despite her mom freaking out and not stopping to her mother despite the fact that she has been raised to be careful and get into the situation. thus the daughter comes off way stupider in this version and the doves come off less like detectives that are intelligent and just randomly going around looking for things.
but yeah as for what you should have seen in that scene.
the dove asks for any last words.
the mother starts to say hinami live on smiling as she starts to say live, but before she can finish the word live the dove says woops and then cuts her head off.

as I mentioned in my earlier post about the ep, they also skipped over an important scene (to be fair I can't be sure it's important as I haven't read far enough in the manga to see it come up but still it felt important) but that I won't go into detail since there is a small chance it will be in the next episode... though it seems unlikely because they seem hellbent to finish the arc as fast as possible.
School Days 1
1 minute in ad we have jiggling breasts and an upskirt shot.
Wow, they're kind of wasting that notebook by using a different page for each message.
Why are they talking over each other, quite annoying with subs.
Oh hey Akio, how are you enjoying Sanae's bread?
I'd love to go to a gas station called Nobil, as long as they honor their name.
Wait, did he just take some punches while shadow boxing?
Well, this seems pretty normal so far. Sure, the comedy is a little grating, and it's a bit boring, but I don't see anything to get upset about yet.
wat.
Pure evil.
So is that final scene implying that this is going to be a harem? Don't really like the sentiment, but I have to admit that it was a clever scene.

Give him a serious kiss, then wish him luck on his date.

It was supposed to get a live action Hollywood movie by the Jim Henson studio of all people.
Neither did I.

Oh I've heard about that, but Parasyte is so old and also such a classic that I thought there would have been an anime in like the 90s.

Persona Golden 6
go on then, the true ending should not come until a while. You won't lose much anyway if you saw the normal ending.
oh.

I beat the game and got the true end. Didn't get golden though. I guess I should be getting thePersona Golden 6
If you haven't finished the dungeon after Naoto one........
don't.

Man, Akiba's Trip is so accurate.
Do they work on Golden Week?
Oh, so good. Let's hope it's not a disappointment like Pupa, though it already looks better from the trailer.

Ok, that was the worst date ever.
Yikes, this OP is not Duckroll-approved.
Changing his underwear is reserved for special occasions?
So this is straight-up ecchi. Glad they didn't beat around the bush regarding this fact.
Oh my god,

Stationary stores must love her. How many notebooks does she go through in a week?
Scratch that, this is the worst relationship ever.

Athena is overpowered as fuck.

I totally thought she has going to go Bane on that angel. Though I think the move she used effectively does the same thing, which means Athena broke that angel's spine. 
Can't wait to see her nerfed for the inevitable duel against Hikaru. /sarc

It's mostly just a joke that stopped being funny a long time ago, but won't die.
Igarashi - yes, he co-directed the whole thing and solo directed the last two series.
Hosoda - two episodes in the final series, 40 and 49.
AWO watches stuff, they just don't choose to talk about it on podcasts.

Terraformers is "fucked up" because is bad.
Parasyte maga is very good, possibly if the adaptation is good a contender for AOTY.

Not quite done yet with this episode but holy fuck, how in the world am I supposed to give a fuck about this girl Sumire. Oh she's looking for a cool boyfriend! Now that's what I call an interesting, rarely seen angle. I mean she and this other new guy will have their character progression but I don't want to go through this shit again; not halfway through the series anyways. And supposedly they need 5 new members...
Maybe I actually need to skip some sections this time around.

Well, at least it took this long for the writing to dip enough to make me laugh. Angst over being tall and really forced angst at that. I don't know why they even bother wasting screentime trying to flesh out throwaway opponents in episodes like this. It always ends poorly.

I hate Transformers but I'd still watch it over more Cap'n Earth.

Neat, I liked how they're willing to portray 0G in a semi-realistic way (the tears floating away and the hair when their helmets are off). Haven't seen a show try to do that since Planetes. Throw this in my 'cautiously optimistic' category.
