Hmm, Arakawa was at the top of my head for a while now, maybe I'll watch it.
The Outside of Madness
Well now, that was pretty brutal from beginning to end
Minor detail, but I liked how his tears froze and broke off while his whole body instantly froze into ice there before the credits rolled. I admit, the orchestral score was executed very well like the end of a tragic film. That was pretty crazy how it quickly went from sunset to a giant raging snowy blizzard.
This is starting to feel a little reminiscent to Higurashi for me in the sense that some secretive elements finally begin to reveal themselves. The thing I'm wondering is what is the end game here for the Cult? That insane speech by Kirito was like the first real sub-boss out of potentially six or seven. Definitely a giant vast hidden conspiracy is going around in this other world, haha

freezing to death twice.
It makes me wonder if Puck is generating all that ice power all over the mansion and yard. I didn't realize that that was the 2nd time Puck froze everything until I went back to the first death. There's no mistaking that voice and the pierced earing at the end.

Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya 3rei!! 10
Hmm they seemed to get to this part of the story rather quickly. Ahh well that's ok because this is the best arc of the series anyway even if I think the character doing all the cool stuff is shit.

I went through the first four Hack games recently and oh boy, I can't believe a franchise with that quality made that far. (I mean, it's kinda dead now, but before that it had like, a bazillion of spin-offs)

Oh, thanks for the link. Nice to see dogakobo using young animator and hiring the right people to do the job.

The term is an "Anti-Sue", but it refers to inverting all the Mary Sue associated tropes (which I will not define).

Good that I booked a hotel on the other side of Tokyo.
Silly nerd stuff!

Because you are watching Fate Stay Night, one of the most overrated porn games out of here.

That attack on F/SN will give the fanbase a great nightmare and leave them defenseless.

Of course we needed a hot springs episode soon after the cosplay episode! Didn't see that ending coming though
That's what I was wondering heh.
I've got a fairly good idea of what we're doing, kabuki play, two press days at TGS, a day at Joypolis and a whole day and half at Akihabara etc but if there's any cool extra places to go I'm all ears.

Ooh, I hope you have the inside details on EVO Japan and new stuff on Tekken 7 FR.
:lol
Is there a joke here that I'm not getting ?I'm pretty sure Qurupeke is already watching the 2014 Ufotable version.

That reminds me I could go to the third Comiket day.
Outside of the BL stuff I would love to get my hands on the Kizu key animation notes / possible 3lion goodies. But I guess the stuff would be already outsold.

Wait, you're watching the ufotable version right? Not the horrendous DEEN movie?

The right cut in this case is to watch the show via sakugabooru gifs.
It's the same thing that happened with Kyoukai No Kanata, if I'm not mistaken. Implying that I should just skip the show and watch the sakuga.
Mistakes happen and I'll live with the regrets.
Yes, the budget seems high so it's definitely the ufortable show.
Yeah should have just stopped after Fate/Zero.
Stay Night was a complete disappointment, though Brave Shine was a god-tier OP song.
Thanks for continuously bringing attention to this. Each passing PV gets better and better.

So I don't think this show really addressed the issues I had with it when I dropped it. The characters are still all very flat. Their characterization rarely goes further than giving them a motivation and establishing some kind of gimmick. Sometimes that's enough. Sometimes even when they have something working, they have to take it further by being really obvious with the dialogue (see: Frate). I don't feel attached to any of the characters. Whatever. This isn't that kind of mob drama.
It's all about the violence. Ever since Nero and Avilio got back to Lawless, the show has been a constant series of escalations, betrayals, deceptions, and murders. Enough game-changing reversals have happened so far to fill two full seasons of Western television. I certainly can't say it's boring. I only worry that it's running out of interesting people to kill.
As violent soap operas go, Thunderbolt Fantasy has it beat by virtue of its more interesting cast. Still a pretty exciting ride, though.

Well duh.
It's the avatar, I just wasn't expecting Nanami of all people to come out with even such a dig.
Woah, you're about to get eaten. Something something schedule something.

God fucking damnit. Well then I guess I'll pop another episode of Narcos tonight.
*puts on defense force cap*
Syndicate is at least good.
Is there anyway to watch that Seven Deadly Sins filler series?
The main animator is stuck in a mutual killing game ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I wish I could see old Akihabara with all the little electronics stores.
I see what you did there. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
