Wait wait, this is a prequel right?
Why did araragi state his name as 18?

This was the regular edition, not the premium edition with the thinpaks. Would have liked to have the PE, just like Arakawa Under the Bridge which I still need to get, but that set sold out quite quickly.
Really disappointed with the drop in packaging quality from PE to RE, and the SRP is just a $5 difference. The episode leaflet has no room in the case and is scrunched in between the spindles. The worst thing was just trying to get the BDs and DVDs loose from the death-grip rings. I put the case on a hard, flat surface and pushed as hard as I could and the discs would not pop out.
I certainly would like to hear if anyone else has had issues with NISA's regular edition packaging, especially that for Bunny Drop.
They made Upotte right?

I still feel MadHouse would do a better job for Prison School.
Can you take some photos of the RE? I only have PE's
Tokyo ESP Episode 1
Is this a sequel to another show or something? I feel like I'm missing something.
Sailor Moon Crystal Episode 3
God why is this show so hideous.
Terror in Resonance Episode 1
I would think posting videos on the internet like that is like the absolute easiest way to get your ass caught.

Nekomonogatari (Kuro) takes place in-between Kizumonogatari and Bakemonogatari. Nekomonogatari (Shiro), on the other hand, is set after Nisemonogatari.
His age, you mean? As far as I know, that would be correct. He was 17 during Kizumonogatari, but turned 18 a bit before Nekomonogatari (Kuro).

I really like Lana
Lana Mai waifu
Lana best girl
if that was my only issue then it wouldn't be a big deal (I can overlook some stupidity, I would just be annoyed)... but even then I can't really see that...
if there was some sort of threat and he had to make a choice to protect his kingdom sure... but they are so far in front of the enemy in tech that there is absolutely nothing earth can do in a weeks time to make a real threat against them. There is absolutely no reason the king shouldn't postpone the attack for a bit and give Earth a chance to produce the princess alive given he was already willing to postpone the attack while he figured out what was going on. At this point I would have preferred the horrible plot line of the king was actually in on the plot to kill his granddaughter to start the war because it would be less stupid.
as for my issue with the main character..
. I would have much preferred if someone else had done his idea, or if the guy who had issues piloting had come up with the idea and set it up and the main character piloted it... him doing everything is annoying.
edit: I apologize if anyone saw my mistake before I fixed it ><;
It's part of Monogatari Series 2nd Season, yeah.

Gotta say, from what I've watched of nekomonogatari it's already leaps better than nise. Has a lot more of what Ioved about Bake.

Maybe Onii-sama has spoiled me, but Gary Stu and look alikes don't bother me as much nowadays as before.

Manga adaptations are above them at this point.
[Space Dandy ] - 2-5
This show is really shaping up to be a great AOTY contender. This episode's setting felt like it was taken from a Dr. Seuss book and it was wonderfully animated. The guitar instrumental background music was a very nice touch as well. Erssime is just an absolute cute bomb x)

Sorry, don't have a camera/scanner of any sort to do so. I cannot even find screens online to show. I will try my best to describe the packaging differences, as the disc content is the same for both sets. Not the best description I know, but that's all I can really say without any pictures to reference.
PE:
Artbook
Thinpaks
Chipboard-box
RE:
Episode leaflet
DVD-sized case
No chipboard nor O-card
You've already survived sky girls and strike witches
Gotta at least go out with a bang with prison school
Zankyou no Terror - 04
Man that was fantastic, and the music continue to be killah.. this is what Sawano always try to pull but failed miserably.
Also I really like this episode theme, its shown general public apathy to the police despite its what they should be concerned about, they just laughing off their incompetency.. Social Media culture lol.

You can but dont post any screencaps. The first...5 seconds will demonstrate why.
Theres a certain kind of spindle in a very hard plastic case. It grips the center of the discs with tenacious force and the only way to really get the disc out is the soft surface technique described earlier.
Upotte, all animated To Love Ru series (TLR, Motto, Darkness), Maken Ki S2, Ladies vs Butlers, Rinne no Lagrange, Softenni, Hen Semi, Kanokon, Nyaruko S1 and S2, and Yamato 2199 are some.
But LadyBato has such bad animation and Kanokon left scars on people. Scars
Which studio did Gintama? Would seem like a good fit?

Re: Hamatora 5
These defecting Minimums are pretty mysterious but interesting. Murasaki doing all the chores is funny in a way.

Maybe i missed something but i disliked space dandy S2 - 05
It was boring
i wantedto do a write-up but i guess this is what fishing does to me.
I really didn't like that episode

Their more recent output these past two years have been good though.
And TLR Darkness was done justice.

I keep forgetting to watch this when it actually airs. Time to go watch it On Demand.
I've been enjoying this season a lot more than the previous one.
High praise for the Japanese VA then. I thought she was great in the English dub.
Sunrise did Gintama.

Grand Theft Onizuka - 2
Yeesh Chairman lady. I know you probably wanted to see just how much Onizuka wanted the job, but if you were gonna stay the whole night regardless, you couldn't have just said: "Come back later today or tomorrow" or something to NOT make the guy endanger lives speeding like that with a truck?
So Onizuka gets the job and the status quo is now set. All right, should be interesting to see what kind of class he ends up with. Will it be full of delinquents like episode 1? Full of girls like he dreams? I guess I'll find out soon enough.

I will have to keep that in mind. Just glad the discs came out without any damage in the end.
The english dub was fine but compared to the original dub it's quite lacking. Mainly because the original dub actually sounded like a child whereas the eng. dub sounded like a person trying to sound like a kid. But that's just my opinion.

Perfect Blue, no. Akira, not really. Everything else seems fine.
Grave of the Fireflies, omg. I don't think I've ever been hit with such a high concentration of feels in one dose.
It works really well. Doesnt flex the disc much and is much safer. Ill take a pic of a disc case like this later to show you how I do it.
Aria: The Natural 9
Something occurred to me in that preview in the beginning. Aika (or Alice, but I think Aika) mentioned that they didn't know when they'd have to take their Undine exam, and I realized that not once during watching this show did I ever wonder about when they were gonna take the exam or gonna become full Undines or...anything, really. There are several shows with little/very slow/almost non-existant plot progression that I've enjoyed, but this may be the first time I've never even thought about where the show is going. And I'm not sure I care. This series could go the whole way without any of the main three making it beyond where they are now and I don't think I'd mind at all.
One thought I had had was that I would like to see some backstory on how Akari came to end up at Aria Company. And while I guess it would be nice, even that is probably unnecessary. Because all it takes is a few minutes of Akari and Alicia interacting to see why Alicia took on Akari as her apprentice. It's so apparent that the details of how that came to be really don't matter.
