At least the pairings are clear, with the Cat lady being left only.
Aoba just gets around too much and messes with other pairs.

Yeah p much this. I'd also throw in Fate/Zero and Escaflowne.

Looks like the judge and jury have spoken, Thunderbolt Fantasy it is.
Fate and Escaflowne are also good suggestions, but I've already seen them both.

Despite some of the ed imagery I think the intent is a shy girl yuribait.
I do like her and art director chan but the show is pretty adamant about shipping art director and the other supervisor.

and if you want a few laughs Konosuba.
Well I liked Tokyo Ravens. Its fantasy in the style of Harry Potter (the latter parts) but has plenty of magic and has perhaps my favourite anime wizards duel.

Suddenly reverse harem...this probably spawned some weird fanfics.
I can't believe Hiro got it in too. Toko dying from sadness isn't too surprising.
ultimate detective isn't shocking at all, but her wanting to find her father is a clearly emotional goal that neatly fits with her character. For the cool front she puts on, she's perhaps has the most reason to get emotional. The place shes stuck is is where she was hoping to meet her father after all. The cracks that appeared earlier now appear much more understandable.
meh. I guess the people who love 90s anime aren't on right now.
"Darkness from twilight, crimson from blood that flows; buried in the flow of time; in Thy great name, I pledge myself to darkness! Those who oppose us shall be destroyed by the power you and I possess! DRAGU SLAVE!!"

AKA slayers.
it's not an amazing show but a classic.
and in the rare case you enjoy dubs... it's got a rather interesting one.
Veronica Taylor (aka Ash Ketchem) plays a female in this.
Crispin freeman plays one of the main characters
Lisa Ortiz does a fine job as the lead
Eric Stuart (aka Brock) plays a dumb blonde in this.
aka the main cast is decent, though the rest of the cast is pretty standard bad 90s anime dub

I mean yeah, it's hard to deny that, and there are times where she's jealous when Ko is giving Aoba attention
but that happens later.
Pretty much Ko and whatsherface, Aoba and Hifumi, those other two girls near them, and Umiko with another person.

Little Witch Academia, it's on Netflix right now and even dubbed if you like dubs.

I read this post as 'Book of Bantarra: Armoured Libertarians'. Was very amused.
Aoba, Hifumi, and her high-school friend.
Though she's kinda our vehicle to explore the other characters.

I'm cool with that.
As long as nobody touches Yun.
If you didn't like the first 3 episodes, you probably won't like any more of it. It's just more of their interactions with each other and Aoba growing as a 3D modeler.

Nina-san no Mahou Seikatsu needs to be made into an anime. I need more witches in my life. And not the Tweeny kind. :c

Is that the show everyone flipped at episode 5 over? Might pick it up to see what the fuss is all about.

Are we considering Thunderbolt Fantasy anime?
It's more anime than some anime.

It's not on MAL so I'm not watching.
The real question is, are you anime?
I've watched the first two episodes of Orange, since it was being recommended here and one of my friends really wanted me to give it a try. It's really good so far! Loved that little montage when the characters were just hanging out around town, it was a nice way of making the show feel energetic without using a lot of animation. I can't wait to get caught up!
As soon as I get caught up on it, then I'll be starting Urusei Yatsura. For real this time!

Anyone else back the Otaku no Video kickstarter? Just got my copy (lol only 6 months past their projected shipping date) and very eager to get into it.
The TV series makes it a lot clearer why Minmay and Hikaru would never get together. All because of one asshole called Lynn Kaifun. Plus Misa and Hikaru just have more chemistry together.

So it's NOT anime then, lol.
I played the role of Makoto in HS for a little bit, but I never completely lost my head. Thankfulky, I didn't have to save the world, but I would have liked some magical powers along the way.

I enjoyed this episode merely because it was the MC's group getting their shit roflstompped by one chick and her maid army. Funny how the Princess still found time to make one of her maids wet despite all this shit going down.
New Game! 07
I wish my boss took us out to a airsoft field for some fun. Instead her idea of fun is extra time off and donuts. Side note I almost thought the whole check up thing was weird but then I remembered my company does something similar twice a year and Hifumi sure hides her assets well.

Oh, her cousin that kissed her on the lips? I'm glad he didn't appear much on the movie.

DAYS had a pretty weak episode last week, but I do think the rest of it is pretty enjoyable. It's far from Haikyu's quality though.
If you want a good sports anime try Big Windup! it's very great and is as good as Haikyu. The stories are also quite similar.

Haikyuu is much etter. Actually theres much better soccer anime. Id suggest Ginga E Kickoff.

Well...not going to win any award but the conclusions from the last episode. The monster which attack them is now gone for good and found out they is another monster hidden in the island the super robot team crash land which they didn't found out till near the end (also explain few things). Knight Valentine manage to work out the difference between Goh after the incident and Ellis Valentine told her secret to Anna of something she never have a chance to tell. Nothing too crazy but do bring up more development with the Valentine team. Also, it help build some strong bonding you can say with Goh and Anna after what happen.
Also, a random funny scene when Anna and Ellis at the hot spring which turn very odd for Anna quickly but come back one more time when Anna realize it's not a dream but real life.
Other than that, fun development episode with the characters.

Well...at least you like the movie. A lot of stuff have change in the movie for pacing issue. You miss quite a bit of them because of this which mean you won't get the issue. Still, it's one of the better movie to watch and also a good example of how hand drawn animation if done right look like and how beautiful it's over 30 years have pass. You don't see this type of animation anymore now.
Yep, I backed it! Very happy with the final disk. AnimEigo's been doing quite well with their Kickstarted BDs so far. I'm really excited to see what their next two projects are, even if they're presumably far off (given that they need to finish Riding Bean, and launch their AD Police Files Kickstarter).
Pick any sports anime from the last three years and it will be better than DAYS. I'd recommend watching Yowamushi Pedal or Baby Steps if you're looking for sports anime with a fun cast, or even Ace of Diamond even though the pacing is incredibly rough (it's still better than DAYS). Of course, if you haven't watched Ping Pong yet that is the obvious pick, it's without a doubt the greatest sports themed anime of all time.
