WoW was unbeatable for so many years that it pretty much cannibalized the entire genre. It's been evolving for 11 years and now raid encounters are so complex and well realized (most of the time) it would be hard to deny it has great combat. Maybe not very advanced but it serves as a template for the encounters
I could probably fill the character count twice just by talking about WoW but this isnt the thread
He's the final boss of WoD, don't tell me WoD is your first era to play in? That's a rarity, figured new blood had trickled out after around Cataclysm

Well no. I actually started around Cataclysm, levelled my Blood Elf Pally up to level 74, then lost interest as I got busy with other things and I basically forgot about it for like, a year IIRC. (I think it was around some time after MoP came out when I stopped).
You can blame Hearthstone for getting me back into it now.
I'm also of the opinion that Yumi sucks

I want to watch more anime, but i got addicted to this crack called Tactics Ogre: Let us cling together. Hoo boy, so much to do in this game.
Yeah, i've read the first novel. Based on what i read, Kyoani really did well with the adaptation.

Yep , as expected, filler stories ...but itseems like they will explain and introduce some things better for the end game than in the manga.
I guess that's what happens when you have the whole summer to tell side stories.
I hope they will include taiga homework studies into the mix because that manga chapter was just too funny.
Still , that theme park filler was ok, IN retrospect, it didn't do much except fruther showing miyu and her presence and impact on the world something
Who thought it would be a great idea to make a theme park dedicated to Saber lion ? wait , don't answer , only one fool can do that

At least that's true in this universe !

That's the wrong opinion. You HAVE to hate her. It is a requirement.

I think the only Senran that I actively hate is Imu. That's more because I find that type of character annoying as fuck. She's just like Perrine from Strike Witches from what I've seen of it.

Wow Big Z with the best upgrade this deck twice this season, with Tsukikage and Byakuya, but then combining these nanomachines. I liked.
Gao Mikados issue though, did losing really make him into some kid thats needs a hero to save him? Who will do it, Tasuku Ryuenji, Baks, or Rouga Aragami?

To LOVE-Ru
This this .. had soooo much goooood. SOO MUCH. Byong Boing! Thats the sound breasts make if you didnt know! Do you like 2D Girls (Who doesnt?), do you like the ecchi/lewd nature of anime (.. I DO!) do you want to watch something that is both funny and infuriating at the same time? (Probably not) To Love-Ru is all that and more! =)
So To LOVE-Ru is about Rito Yuuki, a boy who is, like your typical Harem shows, afraid of all things related to girls. He gets incredibly flustered at the slightest thought of anything slightly naughty for instance, imagining his crush in a bikini will cause him to overheat and flip out and just die; if you hate hate hate seeing MCs who act like that, skip To Love-RU, almost every single episode, say for maybe 2 of the 26, involve him getting into situations like that. If you can handle this type of personality, To LOVE-Ru rewards you with many many many many ecchi scenes.
The story starts out with Yuuki taking a bath when all of a sudden Lala appears naked in his bath and he just happens to be holding her breasts. Unfortunately for him, the way to propose a marriage to an alien of the Deviluke planet is to . You guessed it!..... grab the breasts of the woman you want to marry. This is the beginning of To Love-Ru and for the most part, it stays comedic and fun throughout.
As I mentioned above, Lala is our alien from Deviluke, shes super gorgeous, incredibly pretty, has a beautiful and radiant personality, full of bubbly lovey goodness. She has a super cute tail and she has a helper named Peke who can change her outfits on a whim. Some of the best scenes involve Peke changing her outfits, because Peke will wrap himself around her causing Lala to moan in rather sensual matters.
Now, a harem cant consist of just one girl now, can it? So the others are, Haruna, Yuukis crush. She has a very shy personality and even though she likes Yuuki, they both tend to act the same when alone, flustered, shy, no words to say. Dont except anything to happen between the two of them. We also have Yami-chan, shes an assassin who is sent to kill Yuuki, but discovers that Yuuki is actually a really kind guy and she sort of falls for him; I think shes absolutely amazing and her
; shes also the gothic Lolita of the show; so
yeah. There is also Run-chan, who is one of the best characters of the anime.
. Then come the cast of supports who just happen to be a part of the harem or somehow involved with Lala or Yuuki, I wont list them all, but Mikado-sensei is definitely one to look out for, shes pretty great.
So a large cast of characters, a story that makes very little sense and a lot of episodes for something that should probably only be a 1-cour show; how does To LOVE-Ru keep people watching all the way through? Well easy; throughout most of the anime, To LOVE-Ru takes the direction of introducing other aliens who continually try to propose to Lala and fail. There are episodes where Lala tries to please Yuuki as much as possible, there are episodes that include some tentacle action, there are many episodes where the show is simply slice of life goodness. Around half way or so, were introduced to Lalas father and for a second, a real plot starts up, but no not at all. After that episode the anime goes back into its standard harem fairs and things. The best thing and probably the saving grace for To Love-RU are the ecchi related scenes. Pantsu shots? Yeah, expect to see at least 2-3 pairs of panties being shown per episode. Boobs? Yeah, expect to see the great breasts almost each episode (or honestly, every episode). Skin? Yesss, there is a lot of skin shown in To LOVE-Ru, backside shots, butts, thighs and all sorts of things. Ecchi/lewd is really where To LOVE-Ru shines and its the only reason anyone would really want to watch To LOVE-Ru. Its a harem, with a rather lame MC, great and super cute girls and a lot of fun when Yuuki isnt involved as much. I know the later seasons really spice things up and thank goodness, I dont believe To LOVE-Ru could continue on with its direction for much longer before just becoming a chore to watch.
Art: Its 100% static and very plain. The wind moves, but only to reveal pantsu (not complaining) and blow the girls hair. Nothing looks good really, aside from the girls themselves. The school is plain, the background art is plain, and everything is really .really plain. Thank goodness the colors are visually rewarding and the girls are pretty and cute. Aside from that, there is detail elsewhere. Shading where it counts, lines drawn in ways to give the viewers a better understanding at what theyre looking at, in this regard, huuuge A+ to the art team peoples, you did your job and fulfilled the ecchi role incredibly well, bravo!
Music/Sound: An aspect that To LOVE-Ru actually excels at. Great use of BGM, great understanding of when to begin and stop music, great music choices to begin with! The OP is amazing, as is the first ED, but the 2nd ED with Haruna as the key focus, that might be one of the best EDs ever, its seriously so good to listen to and the art with Haruna is just incredible; for instance, there is heavy emphasis on her lips and man, it looks good; its simply amazing, really, they make Haruna not just look good, but incredibly attractive, more than normal.
To LOVE-Ru, an anime filled with ecchi, filled with lewd, filled with super cute girls. Thats really all there is to say about it; I expected something similar to what I received. Lala, however was the highlight of the entire anime and when the story plot started to matter (last two episodes), she did what I never thought she would do, simply because Yuuki is a loser . I really hope
. If not, then the lewd needs to be a lot better to really keep interest, much more risqué and more of it too.
NOTE: The below are my rather.... mind losing impressions of the OVA's, don't read, it contains a lot of "oh my gao/gau's" and me yelling names....

ability is super incredible
Being an alien, he changes genders in both body and mind 100% whenever he sneezes. As a male, hes totally in love with Lala and tries to prove how much of a man he is. As a female, she will try her best to get Yuuki to notice her. As a female, shes one of the best looking girls in the anime and is just so pretty

Haruna and Yuuki get together in Motto, because its getting tiring seeing them act so ridiculous around one another
NOTE: The below are my rather.... mind losing impressions of the OVA's, don't read, it contains a lot of "oh my gao/gau's" and me yelling names....
OVA: Episode 1: OH MY GAO, thats incredible! I think To LOVE-Ru would be a ton better if it had Yuuki be like this instead, especially since hes all ooooh noooo, girls, and stuff. I wish his personality was changed though, that would have made this so much better; but Lala is amazing. Saki, this episode made her absolutely amazing and incredible, goooo SAKI!
Episode 2: Mikan (Yuukis imouto) is way too cute this episode, so unbelievably adorable! Yuuki-baka! Yami-san continues to just be an all-around amazing girl and Haruna actually did something this episode, in an OVA, but still, she did something! Yuuki Baka Baka Baka Baka!!
Episode 3: An island resort consisting only of the girls? Yes please. Bikinis everywhere, rubbing oil on each other, butts, thighs, boobs, and a little more of oh this is heaven! <3 OVA episodes like this, thats what its all about <3. Oh my gao Haruna and Oshizu-chan, the rubbing of breasts, oh gau gao! Thats <3 So this episode is 100 % lewd, I mean like, wooooow, this is amazing!

I'm with you on this one. It's got a certain level of mystery to it and I find myself rooting for the A-Tech kids to make it work. Also, pretty likable cast over all, especially since I don't have to hate on Angelina anymore.

Motto To LOVE-Ru
WOOOOW, okay. If youre interested in watching the To LOVE-Ru series, skip the first season and start with Motto To LOVE-Ru instead. I know I know, why in the world would I say this when I thought that To LOVE-Ru was a pretty good first season? Well the answer is mega simple; To LOVE-Ru ends in a way that lets Motto start off in a very much
sort of way. Its ecchier/lewder, the art style is changed/upgraded to match the To LOVE-Ru ecchi aspects and its a huge over haul. Sure, it may take a while to get used to the characters, since there is a ton of girls to remember, but honestly, starting with Motto is far far far better. Its not just art that changed too; the way the episodes are shown has changed as well. Instead of being forced to watch a 23 minute episode of sometimes archaic and rather ridiculous scenarios, Motto To LOVE-Ru employs a new tactic, each episode (except for the last one) is cut into 5-9 minute chunks; what this means is that in a 23 minute episode, we the viewers, are able to watch 3 different plots/stories/scenes/thing
. It works so unbelievably well; since the biggest issue I had with To LOVE-Ru (even if I didnt mention it) was how dragged out some episodes were, especially since To LOVE-Ru was 2-cour.
Motto To LOVE-Ru takes what To LOVE-Ru did really well in and makes it a whole ton better, it also fixes all the issues I had with the first season. If you really like the older art style (I know I liked it a ton), you can give To LOVE-Ru a watch, but aside from knowing whos who, youre not missing much by skipping the first season, thats my honest opinion.
Motto starts off a little later in time after To LOVE-Ru ended and the first episode, the first 10 seconds, really sets off with a Hey you, yeah you, youre watching this for lewd ecchi goodness, dont forget that. Momo, Lalas younger sister is in Yuukis bed and her head is near his crotch, so uhm, yeah its the perfect way to introduce everyone back into the To LOVE-Ru universe. Because of the episodic changes, Motto actually has 36 episodes and each episode is executed perfectly. To LOVE-Ru did a poor job giving meaning to the girls, Motto fixes this big time. Each girl gets at least one episode of exposition, Id honestly say most get around 2 and then some. This makes it a lot easier to understand why they like Yuuki to begin with and thats huge, giving characters a reason is something all anime should strive for, even if its a shameless ecchi anime. Yami, Mikan, Saki, Kotegawa, Oshizu, Lala, Haruna, Momo, Nana, Run, Celine, they all have episodes dedicated to them and their feelings, their likes and its incredible. Of that entire list, Celine, Momo and Nana are new to To LOVE-Ru; Celine is a super cute sunflower child that Lala gave to Yuuki on his birthday (from the OVA if you paid attention), every time shes involved in an episode, hilarity ensues and shes just too adorable!, Nana and Momo are Lalas imouto, running away from the planet Deviluke, they live with Lala, Mikan and Yuuki. Momo has some of the best episodes in this entire anime and Nana eventually grows to like Yuuki, as additions to the cast, theyre fantastic and entirely lovable <3.
Now the changes in Motto werent just on the surface (art) or how episodes were done, they also reduced Saruyamas presence greatly, which was much needed. Seeing as how Motto is a harem based anime, having another guy lust over for the girls wasnt something I wanted to watch, especially since hes really just another Yuuki personality. He gets some screen time, but not enough to be annoying and thats a plus +!
Art: YESSSSSS Motto To LOVE-Ru without a doubt upgrades in art style, it goes from a very early 2000 hand drawn look to the smooth, the shiny, the oooooh aaaaaah new art style that much of anime has adopted. Even better . get this .. they even have the red blemishes!!!! AHHHHHH, I was so happy and extra excited to see this art style in use for Motto. Every girl became 1000000x more attractive and extra pretty the second this art style was used, breasts that have blemishes, cheeks, shoulders, the plump thighs, oh my goodness, its so freaking good to watch. Even better, the lewd and ecchi is upgraded too, there is sooo much to see. The lines, the well detailed and drawn lines, the amazing bouncing breasts and butts, the pantsu shots; every episode has pantsu, every episode has boobies to watch, every episode features lewd and ecchi things to see and Motto To LOVE-Ru really pulls it off so damn well!
Music: The OP uses vocals that I cant say Im a fan of, but if I ignore that and look at the lyrics of the song itself its actually really good. The OP has this thing where the vocalist says a line and then another line in the background, the background is the true line where as the line said up front is the façade; in other words, its a foreshadowing for the entire anime. Everyone has issues with their true feelings (aside from a certain few) and its pretty cool to see the OP follow suit. The ED however is a really nice song, though it has nothing on the second ending of To LOVE-Ru. BGM and things of that nature is very similar to To LOVE-Ru, its good and executed well enough to make every scene be memorable, though I did notice a lack of the heavier style music, such as metal, when Yami was involved and things of that nature.
Motto To LOVE-Ru is absolutely phenomenal, its so unbelievably good and the echhi, holy crap is it amazing, shout outs to episode 5 and 10 especially. I made a webm of a scene in episode 10, but I cant link that at all, itd be baaaaad, Ill just say, the detail on a very specific organ was outstanding and the way she toyed with Yuuki, holy crap that was just oh man its must watch tier. Ecchi in Motto is just all around incredible, the boing boing boobies, the plump and heavenly butts/thighs, the way all the girls interact with one another and Yuuki, Motto is just so good. 10/10, not a single flaw I could care about, damn good, so damn good.

This was good for what it was. I can see where complaints about it being boring came from, what with overabundance of dialogue and lack of action, but I thought the mystery, characters, and setting carried it well enough throughout most episodes. Characters were interesting and explored pretty well, especially the whole MMO escapism and real life issues. I really liked Tsukasa, and thought his personality and development were done pretty well. The ending left a lot of stuff for the overall setting open, but I guess those are carried over to the games, which I now feel I have to start playing.
And yeah, the music was easily one of the best soundtracks.

He speaks...!
This was a weird one and not in the way episodes 1-4 were. Pacing felt a bit off at times and the groping scene was really out of place in a show like this. On the other hand the payoff was worth it and the relationship between Watashi and Assistant is well explored.
I don't think this arc is on par with the first two but I still liked it.

To LOVE-Ru Darkness
Wow . I mean . Wooooow .. or more like YESSSSSSS!!!!!! And AHHHHHHHHHH HOLY CRAAAAAP WHHHHAAAAAA!!!! And then OH MY GAOOOOOO OH MY GAAUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!
Thats the best way to explain To LOVE-Ru Darkness; Season 3 of the To LOVE-Ru series, it once again changes the formula and oh man, is it good. After watching LOVE-Ru and Motto, I was rather curious on how Darkness would continue the series; not saying that Motto ends in a way where you can stop (Not at all), but rather, itd get a little boring seeing Yuuki Rito continue to try and confess to Haruna. At the end of Motto,
. Darkness starts off almost exactly the same that Motto did, Momo is in Ritos bed, wearing nothing but a shirt and its oh so good.
So what does Darkness try to do differently to continue holding the viewers attention? Thats really simple, if you looked at the art MAL uses to display To LOVE-Ru Darkness (or the Blu-ray for uncensored goodies), youd have noticed that Yami and Momo are the prominent characters and thats because they are! In Darkness, Momo has a plan to have Yuuki Rito create a harem, where all the girls become his concubine (or something similar to a hot polygamy) ; what an amazing plan! Momo is very much the Main in Darkness, as is Yami and a new girl named Mea. Yes, the other girls still show up, but dont expect Lala or Haruna to appear as much, its the supporting cast of girls that get treatment this season and the way its all executed is perfect. Yami is unknown to us and Darkness does well to begin to explain who and what she is. Mea is just as interesting, even Makido-sensei gets some great exposition. Im purposefully leaving out a secret person from the review because when she is introduced, you may get some feels! (I know I did). Even thinking about the other supports, Run-chan has an amazing episode, the way Mikan is shown throughout the season is fantastic [Redacted]! Having a large cast is seriously great for To LOVE-Ru Darkness, it gives us, the viewers, a lot to experience.
Now the story in Darkness isnt just a simple, lets make all the girls lust for Yuuki Rito, oh no, its far more than that. Darkness, as the name of the season implies, has some pretty dark elements involved and if youve seen To LOVE-Ru and Motto, you may already have an idea as to whom its about, but stop right there! Its 100% more interesting than you could ever imagine, I mean, ever ever ever imagine!!! Ill just say, the way the plot unfolded itself was both quite natural and incredibly exciting; I was at the edge of my seat losing my mind (other reasons for that too) as I saw To LOVE-Ru Darkness.
Ecchi Oh gao gao gau Lewd . Th-thats really where Darkness goes full stop. The amount of oppai, pantsu, skin Ive seen in Darkness is astounding, the immaculately drawn and superbly animated girls, its not just its more than . Good or incredible I cant come up with words, I really cant. Aside from the amount, its the way its shown to us, the stretching, the groping, the.. oh gau . Ive never seen lewd like this in anime before (strictly anime). Its really insane, especially the last few episodes where everything gets propelled far beyond what our Solar System can handle, heck, the imaginations, the teasing, if you like lewds, please, do yourself a favor, watch this, just.. embrace it all. Dont forget the popsicle scene either, that was .. well, its best not to speak of it, <3 <3 <3, Darkness did so well in the lewd/ecchi department, take all my hearts, I love it immensely. <3 <3 <3 <3
Art: Its amazing, the same or very similar to the style used in Motto. All the girls look phenomenal, there is detail in all scenes, clothing, backgrounds everything. Colors are great and very much bordering on two styles; the cute and rather happy, but there are over tones of something simply darker, as if there is more than what appears to be normal (quite obviously!!). I love this type of art style, its beautiful and very fun, incredibly easy to watch and infinitely enjoyable. Red blemishes <3 oh how I love you.
Music: Pretty fantastic, just really great. BGM thats played is executed flawlessly, the music that is involved with all scenes just makes sense and never feels out of touch or place. The OP is extra special; not because the song is super amazing (I really love the song, even if I didnt know what it was about), but because the lyrics that go along with it . really just exemplify what Darkness is all about; creating a paradise, falling for all the love, gardens of love, like . All the yesssss, all of them, go for it; harem plan initiate!!!! The ending on the other hand, has some amazing stills to go along with the super up beat song; its cute and the deviluke girls <3 <3 <3 seriously serious, so good.
I really, really really super really like (love) To LOVE-Ru Darkness, its fantastic and totally amazing, mostly because of the ecchi and the combination of girls. There is comedy, there is mystery and plot that is shown to us in the perfect way to continue to have us glued to the screen, the animation is really well done and it looks so good. The seiyuu do a fantastic job, especially the imaginations, the lust for love is real and its going to be so delicious.
NOTE: OVA's in Spoiler, I lose my mind more than once..... don't read, it's worst than To LOVE-Ru's OVA impressions.
Wow . I mean . Wooooow .. or more like YESSSSSSS!!!!!! And AHHHHHHHHHH HOLY CRAAAAAP WHHHHAAAAAA!!!! And then OH MY GAOOOOOO OH MY GAAUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!

At the end of Motto,
Rito is able to confess to Lala without much problem (About time, YAY!). He then tries to confess to Haruna, but he closes his eyes and stutters for far too long and she gets distracted by something else, when Rito says I like you, he actually says it to 4 other girls in his harem that happened to walk by!! A perfect way to end Motto and its the perfect way to start Darkness

Hopefully love nectar) right on Ritos face, how what .OVA is so hot, so unbelievable, so good. I mean Celine actually . Yeah she did . Right there .. oh god . Oh god . Someone .. <3 <3 <3

Yoru no Yatterman - Series thoughts
Yoru no yatterman is an anime that is so perfectly animated ..it's rather impressive. All 12 episodes have a godly animation and plenty of set pieces that don't take themselves seriously.
it also has a setting and a plot that is sooooo predictable, soooo previsible, so cliché..it kinda hurts the experience.
I predicted the finale halfway throught the anime. the slow build-up of that guy that is good with his hands, can create things and isn't afraid to act for the one he like and nevers gives up ? geezz i wonder what place he could take in this show at the end ?
Geez i wonder about goro , his behavior , his hesitation were so obvious tells about those reveal it was ...not that intresting really.
if you factor those 2 things in the equation, then who might be the yatterman of this show ? Even if you don't know yatterman , you could still guess the final twist.
Yoru no yatterman is not a bad show, but goddamn if it's not FORGETTABLE. i can't remember anything worthy of note in 12 episodes.
The starting trio doesn't evolve and their goals don't change much..sure there was the ending but even then things didn't really change for them. The various people they meet along the way are not intresting . it's mettings and meetings during their journey , but they don't learn ( the NPCs ) from their encounter.
I'm struggling to find positives for this show.. it's average. the only great things is the animation and nothing else.
It's AVERAGE , it's 5/10

What, they spent 2 episodes on a end line pun. Thats puts it better than most of the arcs in my book.

You're not the only one, although, I am conflicted because we'll have to relive last week again.. uugghh.
All those TLR reviews remind me I need to go watch the last 4 episodes so I can start to watch those amazing OVAs and specials.
Playing through Last of Us:R since I got motivated after watching School Live and High School of the Dead.

Fujita (author of the manga) is overseeing the project and has already said some stuff will be cut/condensed because he really wants to see the conclusion animated. I do think there have been some parts already that haven't been given enough time to develop like in the manga, but no deal-breakers yet.

That's good to know. Manga has gotten overboard at points with shit they add in the sense that it's fine in manga format but with an anime that has limited episodes/movies it isn't essential.
Like some people complain they cut stuff from the adaptations of Berserk, but did we really need to see Guts fight a rape monster with giant dicks?

Well, I don't think Berserk is the best example here. There absolutely is vital stuff that was cut in that, one being a pretty important character.

maybe not best example, but the last couple of manga I watched anime adaptations of have been 1:1 outside of Berserk.
I don't watch much shonen which probably finds the most issues.
Cause they made it for me
Glad you're finally watching it. It's great and probably my favorite anime of last season.
Ugh, don't remind me. That was my main GAF thread and now it's gone forever.

Can you imagine his reactions to the troll sis towards the end of S2 if he already hates her now?
I'm guessing KyoAni has to pad things out with a KnK-tier LNshit show or two inbetween their good shows?
Speaking from experience, I wasn't a fan of the first few eps of the OVA series either (particularly that 3rd ep). But I think the shows really comes into its own starting from ep 4 and I also start to connect with the cast more then. Plus Goto and Kanuka being based af in the latter half of the series.
I thought the TV series was 47 episodes? Anyway, I'm halfway through the series and I still like the movie timeline a lot more. Yes, main reason being the OVA & Movies have better production values, as well as Oshii's direction. The kinda random low-stake stories in the series don't interest me as much and there isn't enough humor to carry the story when it doesn't have good drama or conflict. Not that it doesn't - one of the episodes I like the most is the one in which Noa & Kanuka got into an argument and the whole SV2 go out to drink in order to sort their difference, since it has some good character-building moments as well as humor. I just wish there was more of those instead of Patlabor monster of the week fair, because the former is what endeared me with the franchise in the first place.
Frankly thats the best part of Gate. Love seeing those reactions when they encounter modern culture and technology.
Poor Ren-chon. She was almost broken.
I like Haruna. She's a necessary evil. She causes some necessary character development in all 3 main characters toward the end of the season. She's shown to be some beautiful perfect college student, but considering she spends most of her time hanging with high school students, I guessing other college students don't really like her.
