I still use MAL, the difference is that I take their rec and I go read a bunch about the show before I consider it.

Unless I was specifically looking for a shitty good time anime

following MAL recommendation's without actually doing any research after is like playing Russian Roulette. And while you might not put a bullet in your head with MAL literally....as cornbread found out, you can do so figuratively.

 

[lonely]

You might like Amagami SS. It's dating sim shit without the murder-incest.

Also, Sex Hair (wow that brings back memories)

I love the episode of Tokyo Encounter where Sugita brings his memory card and proves how he only completed her route. The awkward explanation about the some of the CG that follows is even better. Also this:

I notice people talking about Amagami SS and was wondering if this show is worth the watch or worth the money to buy the blu-ray. Just skim stuff here and it look like it's something I might be interested in but don't know if it's worth the time to watch it.

 

[Dedication Through Light]

Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V Episode 66

I like Action Duels on foot more combining it with Riding Duel is odd and feels limited.

Glad he won, was hoping he would stick around more.

It's inoffensive. Probably not worth the money but if it's on Crunchy or something you could do worse than Amagami SS.

I certainly think its worth the watch.

You listen to MAL recommendations? Pardon me, but that is hilarious.

It's one of the better harem shows.

I just finished the first season of 4 episode arcs and it was pretty good, but nothing mind blowing. It gives each girl a 4 episode "love" story with the same MC. It's actually kinda interesting because all the other girls from the other arcs are always present (school) and you remember rid bits from their arcs. I wanted the season to end with a sensei episode, but nothing, lol.

Sadly whilst the game supposedly had a teacher story (and a Hibiki one) the anime never got around to those.

More like a bazuka to the skull in this case, however, I 'll be fair and say that this is the first really bad one so far..

The drunken scene with the hot sake could have been an amazing adaptation.

Hmm...interesting take....basically, a win win situation to see with the main character with different girls in the show. Kinda like it. Well, is it worth for the blu ray collection? Now, that will be the big one as I did consider to buy it but put it on hold for a bit here.

Yeah. I don't think in all my time that I've gotten anything bad like that. Though maybe I've just been lucky.

Probably not Blu Ray worthy, but definately watch worthy because like was said, the concept was pretty good and the stories were cute for the most part.

Ah shit NieA_7 is getting a Blu-ray release in Japan, I really enjoyed the series. Link December 2nd, 18,000 Yen.

Holy shit.
Then how come Texhnolyze doesn't have a BDBox too? What world is this?
I need to see them glorious background arts in HD, dammit.

Saw Haibane Renmei and Lain blurays were coming again too. Time for that Despera hype train to begin moving again.

With the earlier Haibane & Lain BD re-release announcement, I thought it was to commemorate Yoshitoshi ABe's 20th Anniversary Artbooks or smth, but a new BD-Box? This might actually make me hopeful.
If Despera wasn't so dead.

 

[kewlmyc]

Ok guys, ya'll need to save me here. I just finished the first episode and this kid is moving back to his hometown with his twin sis. after his parents died. Sad, right? Well, he already has about 6 chicks that want to jump on his pole since he is so hot. Well... aside from that, I watched two scenes where the sick and frail twin sister that has to stay at home alone, was visually fantasizing about making out with hI'm (bro) (pretty damn passionately at that) brother. Then in the final scene, she is shown (not a fantasy this time) stripping off all her clothes in her brother's room in the middle of the night, asking him to make her cum.

It immediately got shut off. WTF is this show? The MAL never mentioned anything about any incest shit. Has anyone watched this before? Is it safe to continue watching? Ugghh.


Slightly traumatized atm.. worse than a School Days troll..

Not sure what you were expecting. It's omnibus format with each girl getting an arc, with the final arc being his twin sister. Tons of tits and sex throughout. Did you not look up the premise or reviews before watching it?

This is what I was expecting a story about:

Synopsis
Haruka Kasugano and his twin sister Sora have lost both their parents in an accident, and with them all their support. They decide to move out of the city to the rural town where they once spent summers with their late grandfather. At first everything seems familiar and peaceful, but changes come as Haruka starts to remember things from his youth.

[Admiral Woofington]

As to Amagami SS, if I'm thinking of the right show then it's like a VN as in it follows different routes. Once a girl's arc ends it starts back at zero and he goes for a different girl.

 

[Saudades]

i have bad news for you

Yeah I heard those early-2000 shows are doomed to SD hell unless they have a total remaster, but let me dream!

 

[Hellwarden]

I'm gonna do it guys.

I'm gonna buy that Future Diary blu-ray, and watch that fucking show all the way through to the end.

I'm gonna do it guys.

For real this time, I'm gonna start that show, and finish it.

Reira running to his Yuuya-oniichan instead of his brother Akaba Reiji was a bit hilarious and sweet, though close to the end though.

Spoiler

almost thought theyd say he was from the world that Sora and co were having fun in

 

[Hellwarden]

Don't worry man, I got it all figured out.

Every time something stupid happens, I'll drink.

The MAL talk got me thinking, what's everyone's top 5? Everyone has more than 5 favorites, but if somebody put a gun to my head and asked for my top five, first of all I'd slap them for pointing a gun at me and asking such a stupid question, but secondly I'd list these five.
In no particular order:

 

[Narag]

• Princess Mononoke
• Giant Robo
• Armored Trooper VOTOMS
• Rurouni Kenshin: Tsuiokuhen
• Turn A Gundam

 

[Admiral Woofington]

that reminds me, gotta buy that ghibli collection when it comes out.


I think it comes out Nov 17th I need confirmation fack you amazon tell me

 

[Hattori]

Maison Ikkoku
Lupin S1
Dragon Ball
Grave of Fireflies
Detective Conan

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

My top 5 on MAL is -

End of Evangelion
Gintama
Kaiji
Ping Pong
Code Geass

 

[javac]

• Princess Mononoke
• Giant Robo
• Armored Trooper VOTOMS
• Rurouni Kenshin: Tsuiokuhen
• Turn A Gundam

I like it, a nice and varied list. Not seen Votoms, Turn A or Kenshin but I've heard good things about them (well not so much Gundam, not that I've heard bad things, I just never really look into Gundam). Votoms is probably next on my watch list after Cobra and Gorg. Looking forward to it.

 

[kewlmyc]

Haven't visited my MAL in years but my top 5 anime are:

1. Baccano
2. Gurren Lagann
3. Cowboy Bebop

Nice list, a bit of nostalgia in there with Dragon Ball Still need to watch Maison Ikkoku #shameonme.

My top 5 on MAL is -

Only seen EoE here, but I heard good things about the rest outside of Geass, which I don't know what to think of it from what I hear. I do own the series on Blu-ray but I doubt I'll ever watch it.

Haven't visited my MAL in years but my top 5 anime are:

I don't know why I use MAL but I do. Love Bebop, didn't really like Lagann or Madoka but that's A-OK, I like seeing people enjoy different series.

No movies included.

I see that you like comedies, I love NHK and GTO

 

[Saudades]

Mine looks something like this:

 

[ZachDeKoromaru]

1. Hidamari Sketch x365
   [*]Aria the Origination
   [*]Sora no Woto
   [*]K-ON!!
   [*]Haibane Renmei

 

[javac]

Mine looks something like this:

I'd say that your tastes line with mine, I haven't seen Kenshin but Tex, Millennium Actress and GITS are all 10/10 for me and all three have been in my top 5 over the years as I shuffled things about. I'm happy where my list is now however.

.

Not seen any of these, I like that!
