We'll see how it goes for the first couple and if people are really into it, we'll expand to longer series by extending the time.

What about a movie or something?
Redline is legally available on youtube (in NA) right?

Well I liked the ending of this one. It always seems like the brother keeps getting the short end of the stick in his life, and Umaru only seems to make it worse. If his smile at the end is any indication of it, he seems to be a happy guy at the end of the day.

God was this episode fucking GOLD. My sides, my fucking sides.😆 I couldn't stop laughing, it was too damn funny. Madao's confession scene killed me, however the scene towards the end with Shogun and Katsura was brilliant. The reaction faces were absolutely amazing.
Daily reminder here's the Full song for Opening 2. http://sp.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm26809264

Glad that you enjoy it . The op and ED are among my favorites too.
And if you liked ep 3,4 you're in for a good ride for the rest of the show
About time. Now I can watch it.

The silver haired girl seems to be posing some competition with the blonde one. I bet that it's because
I could be wrong though.
This was a very good, emotional episode with everyone speaking to their families one last time before venturing out of the solar system. Some moments were pretty touching. The party was good, but one thing that deserves a mention is the music. Man this show has some amazing classic-sounding tracks. The ending credits of this episode continued playing the last song that they put on the radio, and it was so good.
I am starting to see why people enjoyed this show. It feels like an old, classic show, seen through a modern anime. This is some really good stuff, and I am not even halfway done.

she was connected in some way to the MCs brother and she still sees him in him.

the classic aspect is nice, but we like it because it's a genuinely good science fiction show.
edit: If One Punch Man doesn't have the world's most delicious power metal OP, then they did it wrong.

Just now on episode 8 they were able to see Earth when it was all blue and full of water, because of the distance in light years. Pretty nice touch. Like I said before, I'm usually not a big fan of sci-fi, but this is genuinely good. The fact that it mixes sailing with space traveling makes for an interesting take on the genre, the story so far is pretty solid, art is great, and the tunes? Mint.

He just used a pretty good one against the

I heard somewhere that Funimation is known for having issues with their Blu Ray/DVD releases.
That said, does anyone know if there are any problems with their BluRay/DVD release of Tales of Vesperia: First Strike?

Just finished watching Gintama EP 188 with Daigoro reading his diary about Hasegawa, and man, I seriously feel so bad and sorry for him,he is the best and he always ends up being screwed up by of somebody else because of how much of a good person he is, I want him to succeed but if he does then he wouldn't be himself anymore, writing was amazing full of emotions.

A Town Where You Live ep.7-END
The mixed emotions are real for this one. The artwork at times was beautiful, the music was great and you could feel the tension at dramatic moments. At it's core, it is a sweet love story, with an ongoing love triangle that evolves over time and ends with an actual decision, but leaves you questioning whether or not he makes the right decision. I mean, both girls were extremely likable in this one, which made seeing his decision tough leaving you not sure to cry in sadness or happiness. I mean, the scene with the "winner" was very cute, but the scene when he finally confronts the "loser" my goodness... The only real complaint I had while watching this one was the way they constantly used flashbacks, someone mentioned this was done since the story is a very consolidated version of the manga, but it's only a small nitpick.
Don't click if you ever plan to watch, but something extremely amazing happens....

Nevermind, I thought you had to pay $249 to ship to Canada. It's free shipping if what you're buying is at least $249.

Given the recency bias that always arises in these sorts of polls, I think it's impressive that Mizushima's first TV show from 2001 managed to place as high as it did.

Fuck the anime and manga, it's complete shit. It made me fucking rage when I read the manga especially with the amount of stupid decisions the MC decides. Any fucking sane person would have stayed with
Asuka who was a wonderful girlfriend,
who took pity on a guy she didn't even like when he could of spent his precious time with the other girl who actually liked him. Instead he died by a fake bitch.
The manga was a complete waste of time, the author should of ended with
Haruto going out with Asuka.
Asuka deserved better than that shitbag called Haruto.

Vampire Hunter D - Bloodlust [2000]
This was a pretty cool movie. It stars the vampire hunter, D, in one of his jobs to rescue a woman who has been taken by a Noble (vampire).
The woman comes from a wealthy family, so D isn't alone in this hunt. D is a half human, half vampire, and as such he is both feared and disliked by pretty much everyone.
The world setting is quite interesting. It's set in a distant future, yet in blends in some futuristic technology and a sort of apocalyptic wasteland with a classic Transylvania Victorian setting. Now the futuristic stuff isn't that heavy, it's more or less a few gears that the Hunters use.
Animation in general is good, I didn't experience any fault. However most of the action will consist of attack swipes followed by reactions and/or body count increasing. Don't expect much choreography.
This brings me to my first complaint. Powerful characters goes down pretty unsatisfying. You're left thinking "That's it? Surely there's more". Nope. Still, the action manages to not feel boring thanks to the direction.
My final complaint would be the depth of some of the characters, or rather, the lack of it. Not much is explored and in turn it left me question the authenticity of some of the characters reasonings and motivations.
Some characters serves as a way to simply fill out the slots. We know pretty much nothing about them in the end. And in turn I didn't really have any emotional investment at play.
The movie does its job in that it is entertaining throughout with a good pacing, and has some cool memorable moments. By the end of the movie, I had a whopping 224 screencaps, I think that's a record for me.
I had to restrain myself to spam more images here, so check out the image dumps (May contain spoilers) Part 1 & Part 2 if you're interested in more!

Visually this is a feast for the eyes. The art and backgrounds is incredibly nice. If you think this only would take place in a dark and bleak setting you're mistaken. It varies from lush green forests, sunny deserts, snowy mountains to dark caves and majestic constructions to accompany most of it. It's very detailed.

Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V Episode 63
Yes finally another cup, the friendship cup. Yuuya-oniichan having to fight Jack Atlus, I cant wait though I wanted it to be an action duel, not a speed duel it seems?
Can Reira get to duel again please.
Best moment, Kurosaki commanding the Raid Raptors is the only thing hes good for.

Man.....I might be having anime fatigue and also tired from work. I guess I will slow down my anime watching for a while till I recover from it. I might try to stick with Humanity Has Declined watching but that might take a bit of time for me but might try to stick with it.
A break is good now and then.

Lol, no holding back now... I laugh, but I think we're in the same camp on this one. Really, it should have been her and ended it with them finally going on that trip together (I loved the way her eyes were drawn) and finishing what they started before summer vaca. Either that or just go completely crazy and follow the harem route and add imouto and the blond chick into the fold..
Yeah, best girl lost in the anime..
