I don't want to be too critical of what I watch. It really depends on the situation really though, though I guess that's because I'm a writer that I start to understand not to be so harsh at judging different media
Yeah, or pick better recommendations and still have bad tastes.
Up to you. It depends on how strong the thirst is.

Play it now now now now.
Seriously though, half off is a great price. I don't see Holiday sales being any better than that. If you wait longer it will eventually get better.
Hey, I informed at least one person. So I did ok.

I'm not saying you have to nitpick on every minor detail, but SAO has some huge ass plot holes and to blindly ignore them is dumb. Relevant.
Yeah, like Haikyuu and Ping Pong.

Here looking for a ShitStorm vid then remembered it finished...
Don't worry, the next one will be uploaded in about 334 more days
Yeah, they are...in game, of course, cause you know they stop a killer then, the most logical move of course is to find a ultra rare weapon in a game.
Yep. You did ok.
Yep. I haven't even touched Haikyu. Ping Pong is in the list of last seasons to finish list.
Is it sad I haven't finished many animes I started last season? Maybe one or two at most. Gekkan shoujo isn't even one of the ones i've finished. ;_;

The princess is the only one unconfirmed so her being alive is plot important. Inaho's death is super confirmed or Slaine gets off easily in the next part. The last episode super got me interested in the series because I wasn't feeling it up until then.
AVOID THE EVANGELION VIDEOS. At least until you're done. It's good as a retrospective view of the series and if you don't give a damn about the movies.

I am insanely critical, it's actually the main reason I can't write, everything I write is bound to be, and is shit.
I think people should have a healthy balance of critique and enjoyment. I skew a bit too harsh. (I've had a friend yell at me for being too critical.)

But excalibur. They couldn't come up with a less generic fucking name for a legendary sword?

Haikyuu is pretty good, it's like Kuroko no Basket lite. And I dropped a lot of last season too, shit just got really boring, though Nozaki was always priority number 1.

Guess I shouldn't mention the quest is given to them by a lady of the lake then...
Fuck it, I'll get it.
I won a free steam card from winning an injustice tournament and I was trying to think of things to spend it on

Tsk tsk tsk. I'm disappointed in you. Not only have you not watched Haikyuu and Ping Pong, but you haven't finished Nozaki either.
Thing is, they can easily retcon it and make inaho alive except he lost an eye or something. I wish they fleshed out the characters more. The first death was only shock value and no meaning behind it. The other characters just seemed like random normal people who could be easily replaced.. Hell the side characters had so much back story. Like the lieutenant should've played a bigger part, since he was super interesting. They didn't really need some of the classmates, unless they pay off in the future.
Kinda long rant.. But I really like the series, but these really stood out.. The music is so good too.

I'm watching it right now after a week of being stupidly busy. Episode 13. Still kicks ass.

I was pretty cool with Titania and Oberon, but shit Lady of the Lake isn't even a fairy, and I don't think that fairies had anything to do with Arthurian myths.

And it all started when they saved a elephant/flying jellyfish thing from a monster cause his sister told him to...in a flashback. Great segway SAO, and you wonder why people hate you.
I'm critical too.. I make something and immediately hate how bad it is.. Drawings and writing.. On the bright side, i don't make terrible things on the other side I don't get a lot done.
Not really drop. I'll finish all the terribad series i've started, Glasslips, hanayamata, jinsei, Sabagebu.. and the list goes on.
I felt like the author didn't even try. He just say, people know this! Stuff it in and there you go there's a story! Who here is reading Alicization? I've heard good things.. but early on.. It's rough. I didn't really enjoy it.

I feel all this gets addressed in the second part. It at least needs it.
I'm on like episode 21-ish on Ippo and I can pretty much say it's the hypest shit I've seen in my life
Nekomimi aren't even fairies... Unless you go pick a specific fantasy creature..

If it isn't.. I'm going to be very annoyed.. I doubt anything will get wrapped up. They'll just only focus on the main story and wrap nothing up.

So for the past 2 weeks I've been putting off a 3-4 page essay because I didn't feel like doing it. Like a dumb ass I started it today and was rushing it and not caring how shitty it was. I was on the last paragraph when I get a text from my friend. As I'm answering it I get an email. I check it and it's a message from the teacher saying I have another week to turn it in because she wants to talk to students about it. Mother. Fucker. What is life
Also are you guys still talking about Sword Art?

They had those in SAO yeah... The author really doesn't give a fuck about consistency at all with his story.
After the SAO incident, the ALF MMO was only fairies. God damn it messes up with lore of the entire game when they introduce Nekomimis.
On the bright side, you can fix it up and make it good OOOOOR... be lazy and just leave it as is and do whatever for the week.
He doesn't, he kinda does what is cool or cute.. Like the switch from SAO to ALF was dumb
Kirito with his god powers transfer over? Also does he HAVE TO PICK BLACK?!?!

Gen Urobuchi hasn't let me down yet, but I agree that anything else is disappointment.

I just caught up to episode 4 on Shirobako. Heartily recommend it so far, really fun look into anime production, like a less ridiculous but more generic Bakuman, which had manga writing battles. I'd also like to heartily suggest against watching World Trigger, since it's ultra generic and is becoming more like Bleach/Attack on Titan every episode, not to mention the ugly generic art style.

Pretty much the second part, just going to finish it tomorrow. Fuck working on it more today, time for youtube.
Ahaha, thanks for that

From what I've seen from DEMO's review, I think you should skip it. Story means nothing if the characters can't execute it.
I recommend Kamen Rider Gaim since its best
anime
It's very generic and uninspired, nothing really stands out and it just feels very flat to me. its kind of critical to me that if Im gonna watch an animated show, it should have art style that stands out.

finally! Shinji going insane while waiting to die was great, I'm going to assume that this is where one of the possible endings that people interpret comes from, Either Shinji Dies in the goo or that he dies in hospital or is a vegetable and it all takes place in his mind from here on out. don't say anything yet, We'll talk when I finish the series

Madoka.
Oh, we'll talk alright. We'll talk the shit out of you, man.

I feel like the manga adaptation of that scene was better. It mainly showed what S
hinji thought and his state of mind while in the goop.
Let me disappoint you RIGHT NOW.
From wikipedia:
In Demo's video, Demo explained he was only in the first episode and had no other involvement after that.
Sounds fun. Good luck with that.

I know that why I said Also for Gaim. I already know you've seen Madoka probably. People who seen Gaim probably already watched Madoka.
