Reinhard is a gamesharked character.
yeah... WAY to soon for platinum end.
give it like 3 years.
it's a monthly manga with a very slow start (I've only read the first 4 or so chapters) that is setting up for something grand. (there are only 10 chapters total right now)
it would be best to wait to make an adaption until the series is about to wrap up.
It's not like it will have any issues getting an anime produced when it comes time.
the spirited sequel to death note from the death note creators is a very easy sell
Welcome to our pain.
given durarara did decent enough to get a big second season, I could see them giving Baccano another try someday...
right after Nana gets a second season

You guys are not getting a new season of Re:Zero for a while.
Anime is gona end up being caught up to date to the latest light novel volume.
On the other hand the web novel is far ahead of the light novels so it will depend if they decide to just adapt that as it is.
Theres about 3 more arcs in the web novel and the next one at the end of the anime is the longest one by far.

I feel like you responded to stuff from hours ago that was already covered
.on a different thought, how different are the web novels to the published light novels?

It is a familiar feeling. I've been waiting a long while for a continuation for Full Metal Panic.
At least the stars seem to be shining brighter about that one continuing.

Someone asked if the light novel are finished as of two hours ago so i though i would answer in a general sense
They are different in minor stuff, mostly really gory deaths(yes it can get far worse) and unnecesary jokes and subplots.
The light novel is basically making it more accesible and marketable

Can't really argue with that. I thought Island Wars sucked, just like Try always has and for largely the same reasons.
Zero no Tsukaima!
Yep. We should honestly be on G Gundam 6 or so by now. Do it every other AU series.

But GBF Try was the G Gundam sequel. Domon is in it.
He's got a cameo in the good Build Fighters as well...
Might have to finish Try next month.

Not surprised by Hello Kitty appearing since she's everywhere.

I feel now there is a lack of tension because we know Subaru won't die, as vulnerable he usually is, the cycle established in the previous arcs repeats here and gives some predictability to the series, he already did his homework to fix the problems so now he needs to end solving them. And we are in the sprint to the end of season, if he would die he would have to repeat again and we don't have enough episodes left for that.
Gundam Build Harem TRYd Again
That was fun. Battle was hype. Can never get enough of the GBF soundtrack.
Didn't like Try as much as the original, but I still want to see the nationals witth all this teasing. Talking about teasing, the last scene
was very nice.
Also, Sakai should just be a main character instead of Yuuma.

I remember being so excited seeing his silhouette the first time they showed the OP, ugh...

Well, if you dont like Try, The OVA wont change you mind. It pretty much Try (Harem antic, punching stuff, plasky hax ) but more.

Cardcaptor Sakura 09-15
All that needs to be noted so far is that Li is the best character in the show and should get all the cards so that he can do more cool things with them.
Also I didn't catch this the first time I watched this series but I'm getting the strong vibe that Sakura's brother and Yukito are secretly into each other, but maybe I'm just imagining things.
You're not, it's an in-universe thing...cross dimensional thing, basically a Clamp staple.

Yeah, You Are Umasou is super-good. Very strong art direction and action scenes.
I do actually have the recent UK release, though I've not had the chance to crack it open yet.

Kamisama Kiss Season 1
Well this was excellent, I'm usually put off by Nanami's super shojo-y visual design (doesn't help that it was ripped off by that sleazy 'abused by the boss' manga that was advertised on here for a while) but once I got past that there's a lot to like here. mostly though I wanted to post a link to the ED because it's brilliant and I directly blame it for the binge watch this weekend, every time it builds I feel compelled to watch the next episode immediately. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=df_dEE0EM9Y
Annoyingly in the show it's often mixed so that the wonderful tangy guitar comes in before the vocals but this is the closest to it online(it seems the OST version has an odd intro).

Your avatar is a daily reminder of why seeing a show everyone is talking about is hardly ever a good idea.
Yup.
If you more or less enjoyed it up till that point then I don't see anything that would change your mind in the last outings.
Of course.
Following Re:Make and preceding Re:Four, it was certainly a bit disappointing.

Fafner Exodus 2
The first half of this episode is easily the best action sequence the Fafner franchise has had up to this point. Orange's CG allows the camera freedom of movement, yet without being erratic or drunk as in current Berserk or Taboo Tattoo. The sequence is of fairly large scale, involving a large number of players: the Festum itself (which eventually splits into multiple copies), Mizoguchi and Maya in airplanes out at sea, three and eventually four Fafner from the island, three Fafner arriving from the Human Army transport craft, and the support staff on the island. The direction is logical and clear enough to be able to follow what's going on, thankfully, and still enough energy to make the battle exciting. The Festum are really scary now - its appearance when it had Mizoguchi's plane in its grasp impresses upon one the overwhelming fear it can induce in a person - which greatly helps sell the conflict.
It's really interesting to see the remaining younger main cast from the original series having moved up to new roles on the island, having mostly retired from Fafner piloting. The current Fafner pilots are a younger generation who gradually moved into their places across the course of the franchise, and are already worried about the even younger generation below them that are currently being prepared for pilot duty. That's an unusual narrative direction which opens up all kind of possibilities. Also unusual is that we have a middle-aged man, the commander of the arriving Human Army group, who is able to pilot the normally-reserved-for-teenagers mecha. When does that happen?

Yeah I loved this movie which is funny, I only stumbled across it by accident and only gave it a chance because it starred a T Rex.

Man, the quality are all over the places.
But here we are mate, Beautiful DUWANG. Chew. Feel like a picnic.
Yoshikage Kira is an interesting character. He's a serial killer who don't want to be in the spotlight, just a moment of peace for him and his victim hand. He's a different beast when compared to DIO, narcissist with ego the size of the sun.
