They're not all Jake Lloyd though!
Roseanne and The Cosby Show did fine with having the children be an big part of the family at least. I guess people like the kids on Modern Family, to use a more contemporary example.

The lack of Working!!!, Shimoneta and God Eater hurts my heart.
Also, School Live. That show is quite something.

Animator Expo 25 - Hammerhead
That was pretty cool. Really fluid animation, great flow, fantastic effects, and a really effect and focused theme for a short narrative. It plays around with a lot of dark hero tropes, and while it doesn't really subvert them so much as use them as flavoring to build an interesting setting, it's creative enough that I can say it's not really the sort of thing we see enough with superhero stuff. I would say this is tied with Power Plant No.33 among the shorts for the sort of setting I would love to see expanded for a longer series or film. One thing I really liked about the script in this one is how it essentially works as both an ending to an assumed longer running story, and also as an origin story for a new beginning for this character. The way it uses familiar hero concepts is really cool.
Now that it's back, I should probably catch up on the few shorts from last season which I haven't watched yet...

The OP tells no lies.
Except for when Tsukamoto is in every OP despite never showing up and they give him shit for it everytime he does show up

Holy shit that's an OP for a kid's show?
I love Texh's first ep - it's prob my favorite ep of the show and one of my favorite openers ever. It's pretty amazing how
they went half the episode before the first lines of dialogue show up (the rest of the ep is pretty light on dialogues too)

Man I can't be the only one who's in love with the OST. It has that old school vibe to it. This anime is definitely a keeper. So far the Yamato plan has succeeded and is headed for Iscandar. Gotta save Earth.
So far the characters are pretty enjoyable.
Remember when Gintama always provided a introduction to the Amanto plotline and showed flying vehicles, yeah I don't remember either.
The background art looks really great.

Just replace it with a gundam and you've got the full story.
just remind yourself to watch the 2nd movie after you finish episode 265 before watching the new season
That shit was always just an excuse to do literally anything they want. How is any of this crazy shit happening? Aliens. Done.

Kaichou wa Maid Sama:
Watched the first 6 episodes of this one so far and it's been enjoyable. It's focused mostly on her backstory and her development, mostly in a comedic way) but the MC isn't bad I guess. She is more of the over-acheiving insufforable type that hates men, lol.
Oh man, I feel like this show is really easy to skip over at a glance, but I'm glad I watched it.
Great characters, such a fun show.

yep
Be Forever Yorozuya can be watched at any time, but it's more effective before the new season because they've done that shit so many times
Yeah its great, I really got pulled into the show, sometimes I even forgot that I was actually watching something because I was just in a meditative state. It was an amazing experience watching Texhnolyze. I also have a habit for loving episodes with little to no dialogue. I'm looking at you Aku no Hana you glorious show. I wish more creators had that much faith in their series and in their audience, not to hold their hand all the way and let them figure shit out for themselves, it's good shit.

Yeah, I actually like Usui, the MC, in this one. He's a smartass, but he can back it up and I'd just portrayed in a cool way.

Texhnolyze 1-8 thoughts
Maybe I'm just not paying enough attention, but the lead really isn't grabbing me. He either screams or punches at things, or stumbles around a city. Mustache bro and sword mobster are better characters. I mean he's supposed to be like an underground MMA fighter or some shit, but has yet to show any skill in fighting lol.
Besides that though I'm enjoying the show. The first episode makes you think it's going to be something completely different with its tone and direction, but it has settled down to Serial Experiment Lain feeling.
I can see why I didn't watch the show when I tried to back in the days. Back then I wanted more straightforward harem/rom com/action shonen anime. So Deus Ex Machina: Human Revolution the anime wasn't going to grab me. Now I'm enjoying it.

It's also most effective there because you can tell they went all out thinking it was the last they'd ever get to make of Gintama.
I can tolerate some fan service but jeez who the fuck let the ecchi director out of his prison cause Nisemontagari makes me feel way more creepy than Bakemongatari ever did. That toothbrush scene alone has left me questioning why I watch this smut but the goddess appears to make it all worth it.

Honestly to me Senjougahara is probably the worst out of all the girls. I just can't stand her that much.
Shinobu, Tsubasa (short hair), and Kanbaru are truly the goddesses.
Sweet Jesus is short hair Tsubasa absolutely amazing.
The best thing about the show is that all the girls are mostly great. I'd be fine with it being a harem type show since they're all so good. I need more Shinobu damnit. Flame me all you want but I hate Araragi's sisters. It honestly felt like Fate Stay Night with all their being a hero and fakes crap. Toothbrush scene is irredeemable in my eyes to the little big sister.

Honestly even though Araragi is dating Senjougahara it still feels like a full blown harem considering the way Araragi interacts with all the other girls. At times I question whether or not he's actually dating Senjougahara.
Then again I guess Monogatari is a harem whether you accept it or not.
It's a hierarchy. Crab is bottom bitch.
She said she's fine with flings but she'll probably kill them all if he actually cheats on her. I do agree with you that it's already passed that line with every character getting on his dick for fan service. Bake is so much better than Nise so far. I'm shocked at how much I dislike Nise at the moment.

Crab is Cat's bitch though.😎 I mean she calls Tsubasa with sama/master.
She wouldn't kill Tsubasa since she's scared of her. Tsubasa is basically Senjougahara's master.
....you may have a point here. I hope Senjo doesn't get short hair by the end of the show. Seems like everyone else is.
its a harem cleverly disguised under substance. There is really nothing like Monogatari that Ive ever seen.
A lot of people thought Nise was a step back.
Aside from Platinum Disco which is the greatest thing.
Ahhh so that's why she was so meek during that phone call. That makes sense.
Arararararagi has a system on how he interacts with each girl. This system is dependent on where the girl places on the hierarchy and who is with him at the time.
Crab and Bat are obviously at the top of this hierarchy. Now separate from him, the girls have their own system and knowledge as to where they rank.
All of that said, he will molest anyone at any time he deems fit.

Yeah I forgot to mention this but holy fuck is Platinum Disco (second Opening of Nisemonogatari) mesmerizing as fuck. My eyes were glued to the screen and I never skipped it once, it's just that good. It's GOAT.
Those hands I'm telling you.
How come I never heard this. I'm sad I didn't know about this.
Speaking of openings, I take it nobody here skips them? I've never skipped one and never will, same goes for the ED and even the "Next Time!" stinger at the end, I just can't. They probably rack up a lot of hours of screen-time over the course of many series but still it's integral to the experience damn it! A lot of people skip em, those people disgust me.
Also those girls have eggs on their heads.

Directly after that video was this one...
Also, Akame ga Kill is excellent. In my top 5 levels of excellent.
Well... unless this last episode changes my opinion of it drastically.
You have never decided to rewatch the entirety of One Piece.
