First it was "girls don't read manga", now it's "girls don't watch anime"?I don't think there's anybody in Japan who still thinks magical girl shows are for young Japanese girls.

Haha, those are out-of-print premium collector's prices though.If there is a possibility that the entire boxset will cost you $5000 then there is something horribly horribly wrong.
Kyon's explanation of Yuki's motives is her getting tired of Haruhi.
For some reason I thought Endless Eight came after Disappearance, then I realized the novels stories are all out of order.
Consider that the R1 uncut subbed Pioneer DVD set together costs over $500 used and over $800 new. Im not surprised that the bluray version is exponentially more valuable.
Lucky
I had to import the R1 Pioneer DVDs USED at roughly $35 per disc (not including postage) because the asshats in Contender decided to troll the UK plebeians by only releasing Cardcaptors over here.
Just look at this, it's like something you'd get free with a magazine;

Yeah, as someone who also watched this pretty recently, I also thought I should have watched it sooner. Most of my compliments were pretty similar. Glad to have finally got around to watching this anime though.Oh right, I was going to get around to this.
Usagi Drop 11 - END
My mom came by and watched this episode over my shoulder. She liked it, which was nice.
This episode was a nice little summation of everything that happened so far, and what it represented. Some of the parenting stuff came off as a little obvious, given how much had already been said to that point on the subject.
Still, it was as good an episode as ever. All the stuff with loose teeth and jump rope was very cute and easy to understand. It's easy to be nostalgic about it.
I really enjoyed this series. It's cute without being pandering, dramatic without being melodramatic, realistic without being boring. When I watch anime, I'm so used to caricature and absurdism, even in shows with grounded settings. Usagi Drop is really different. It's not perfectly representational of life, but most of the situations are things that anyone might encounter, and the characters react much more like real people than one would expect from anime. And while the overall message was obvious (parenting is awesome!), each character's particular situation is handled with a lot of nuance.
I'm very sorry I didn't watch this sooner. It might be my favorite show of my "season".
Just finished Samurai Champloo. Really great last 3 episodes but I felt like it dragged on and really wasn't about anything for a while there. Great music of course.
Omfg I was cringing so hard for the first 7 minutes of Ano Natsu 10 that I had to turn it off. Shit fucking sucked.
I take it you were on team should-have-seen-it-coming, and the knife was slowly being twisted?
so animegaf who's your fav female anime charcter and why?
Yeah I know. Cliche and boring as hell, but she's beautiful and not super high maintenance.
If we're talking actual human women, then either
Funny how they look identical when you put them side by side like that. I guess I just like short hair and glasses.

No that wasn't it.. all the romance/comedy stuff they were trying to do was so painfully embarrassing that I couldn't help but constantly cringe. I'd have liked it if they kept thestuff relatively normal but they overdid it too much for my liking.ichikaxkaito
Does Kanna wear glasses at any point in Ano Natsu? because she totally should.
Haha, those are out-of-print premium collector's prices though.
The set was only a $1000 back when it came out.
(It's just two boxes, not three. Then the movies came out individually later.)

Short hair with glasses works. It works very very well.
Even better with cat ears :3
Nah man, nodoka is on another level from friendzone.

Yeah, NTV owns... it literally owns MADHOUSE (http://www.ntv.co.jp/english/an/index_04su.html), produces the show, and basically pays with its own money for a time-slot on its own channel!
I see it as showing a bit of their self-pride, more than anything else.
And probably they are paying MADHOUSE workers right now with instant noodles and cigarette packets, SHAFT style.err... i think they do it on a barter basis.
fuck those numbers man... 42,000?
AnoNatsu 2-3
Well, now. This is going places quickly.
If Madoka is the Evangelion of magical girl shows then Heartcatch is the Gurren Lagann.
I don't know about Spain but here in Latin America we dubbed the original Japanese OPs for Dragon Ball.
izzaroll should be the new :cajun

Ah, I can understnd those sentiments, it also goes a ways to understanding why most of these type of shows would have had resolved all this stuff in the last episode.

Do you ever worry it might be too easy for the people who know you to manipulate you?My roommates showed me just this tiny scene and it sold me on Ano Natsu.

So a kid detective (sound familiar?) who also happens to be the greatest detective EVER! Is tasked with finding out who is responsible for the recent string of famous female kidnappings. Well, that doesnt exactly light any fire for me; it seems pretty standard for a detective story. Still, I figure Ill give it a shot.
(2 min in) . You had me at flying Egyptian alligator headed men!
Overall, the art was not impressive (Tezuka-esque), the plot was very standard, and the mystery was not all that interesting. The show seems to fit as a predecessor to Detective Conan, its interesting, but little more than that.
If you are a fan of detective stories then you will probably enjoy it. The OVA sadly does not live up to it's amazing title.
