I swear these girls do less idol shit than the original series yet it is so much more enjoyable and amusing. I want a shark sleeping bag that I can sleep in hammock style.

I remember when some years ago Gunslinger Girl - il Teatrino was released I was deterred from watching it. All the negative comments about the change of animation studio and the new voice actors gave me the impression it would much inferior to the manga.
Now that the manga reached its conclusion few years ago, I decided to give it a shot. I had watched the last episode some time ago and found it very good for an action series. But character relations were the most important part and for that I had to see the whole series. I was not disappointed.
I have to say, the second series stays as close to the manga and is as good as the first series. Manga gets more action packed later on. I watched it in English. The robotic voices of the English voice actresses and the European settings suited the series much better actually.
The fact that the characters and their tutors look blander and more emotionless than the first series, makes the sequel even more effective, tragic and terrifying. All characters there do not value human life at all, putting it below revenge, conditioning, national security and assassinations.
Only downside is that they could not add more people animation in the Italian settings, beyond the detailed maps and photographs.

Yes! And no, this isn't another Everyday Life with Monster Girls.
That is... the worst possible place to drop the show, although understandable (arc recap and that weird episode with Yoko and Rakushun). Next episode is an entirely new arc!
(although admittedly the show never really returns to things like the crazy Sugimoto storm battle, so your mileage may vary)

I've never heard lower production values advocated for like this before.

We Punished Reinhard now, and Oberstein is multitudes more sly then Revolver Ocelot. Oberstein is such a fantastic character. The only thing worse then having to concede to his plans is to have him on the enemy side.

Heh, i think i also stopped at E16 before catching up with the show this week. The last 3 episodes were superb, and the show has really picked up, both story and action wise.
If there is a Season 3 you will get to see some more interesting characters. Still hope that the

Damn that speech from Lloyd sure was great, no wonder the Windermerians hate humans so much. I always enjoy me an episode that opts to focus on the villains to try and flesh out their goals and motives a bit more (Like Bogue's
) though I'm not sure what the end goal here is for Lloyd, who seems to have taken this opportunity to take control of the kingdom in the absence of the

Well what can I say, overall the series didn't have many missteps, it didn't rely on forced drama, the fight scenes were all done well, the world itself felt large and expanded on, overall just an all round treat. The final episode itself was excellent all round,
overall a marvelous series and highly recommended for people who want a well made and genuine series that hardly ever misses. 9/10
Only slightly disappointed to find out it covered only the first novel out of 9, damn wish there was a sequel series then!

So I watched The Five Star Stories! I'm not entirely sure what happened in it. I feel like this movie could have benefited from a longer runtime. Still, the animation was nice. The brief fight scene when they finally get to the mechas fighting was really cool too; it happens so quickly, but it still managed to be really exciting to watch. Norio Wakamoto voiced his character surprisingly well; he wasn't hamming it up as much, but he still managed to bring a lot of energy to him. Also, I loved Ladios. Loved him! Despite barely understanding what happened, I don't regret watching this at all.

Anyone know what anime this is from? Putting it in spoilers just in case it's not safe.

Already finished? Those 'let's watch anime thread' sure demand a lightning fast pacing ;O
Seems like those who watched it also ended up enjoying it thoroughly. That's good to hear.
Remember waiting for I think Godzilla vs Gigan on Channel 4 as a kid and watching a bit of that.
Riveting stuff. Always amuses me now that an adult anime would follow up with a family friendly kid's film about a giant reptile thwarting the plans of space cockroaches.
It was such an excellent show, I ended up loving just about every aspect of it.
Shame the full series is a novel or else I'd have jumped into reading what else there was. I just ended up loving both the real and spirit world and all the characters and would love to see more produced.
Its nice to see that Hayama's obsession ties with what Soma's father tried to say to him in the first episode: devote your cooking to a special woman in your life (or something like that).
He wasn't given an out, FAAAAAAANGO was about to sentence him to a short life on the run followed by torture and execution, more brutal than just killing him right there. If he wanted him to get lost he would've left it at that, you can see it in his eyes he thinks he thought up something better than beating him to death, and decided to put that fear right into him by not even waiting until he was gone to start a manhunt for him. What FAAAAANGO didn't expect was for him to have the balls to do shit about it, in his mind it was like a hamster pulling a knife on you.

Persona 5 The Daybreakers
A couple of things:
- I like these kids already. We don't know much background wise (that will come in the game) but we got to see them interact with each other. Good chemistry amongst these ones.
- We got to see the game in motion. Well technically. This is what I believe to be how the game handles quests - from getting a notification on the phone, to having to scout out the situation, to then having to go fix the targets' hearts.
- As an anime, this wasn't all that special. It was mediocre at best, with some good looking bits, but for the most part, it was your average A-1 midtier quality output. Which is fine in this case. This isn't meant to be full blown show, and is basically just here to show us how the game is going to be, getting us accustomed to the systems and initial characters.
- The way they tag in battle is cool. And the Persona invocation is badass.
I mean in terms of what it set out to do, I'd say this gets a 10/10. I am more excited than ever to play the game. Can't really rate as anything else other than a hype piece. So its shortcomings in terms of animation to me are purely meaningless. Can't wait for this fucking game.

Kind of disappointed we won't get the jap dub, but I'm sure the english will be fine
Yeah, I really like the voices, but Atlus is going to be Atlus. It would be great if they had it as DLC, but that probably won't happen.
Avillo is a way bigger piece of shit for dragging Corteo into the mafia in the first place, then telling him to get out of his life, especially since they're all each other have left.

Wasn't he just
trying to protect him by giving him the money to get out of it and go to college?
Persona has always been good in English. Atlus dubs do an exceptional job with them.

UGGGGGGGGGH.
Man they fucked up the artstyle bad, feels just like what happened with Jistu Wa Watashi Wa's anime adaption from last year. They better at least adapt the content well, no adding fucking fan service to this, it ain't a fan service manga.

No sign of any real romance so far, its comedy and slice of life focused.
He did it for Avilio.
Corteo thought if Nero was taken out, Avilio would be able to move on.
Avilio is the piece of shit, and I love him for it.

He killed him out of fear and stress. He was terrified that he was going to tell the Vanettis that he is a traitor. He basically was a dead man, if we are to go by how seriously the family takes their opponents, look at how they threatened to kill the cop's family and almost went through with it. Even if Fango hadn't killed him, if he had told the Vanettis, he might as well just have done it on that spot.
Soma S2 - 08
So the grand finals finale is upon us:
- Firstly, for some reason, animation seems to be vastly improved on this episode. Not that it has been bad or anything, but a lot more effort clearly went into animating and drawing the characters for this week's episode. Characters have more subtle moments that highlight their emotions and reactions to what is happening, more facial expressions, movements as they speak. Take notice of how natural the blinking looks as characters speak. Jun's glasses getting a little foggy while she drinks tea at the end of the episode. There are very subtle things all over the place that make the episode look better.

Hayama's
And so a new genius was born.
