Just now saw Blood C's uncensored finale.
Was as expected.

right now, the only interesting thing about Evol seems to be Zessica. Please let me know what else is there if I'm wrong about this.
Anyway, he's hungry for more Ikuhara, so we're going to slow-roll Utena together.

Oh god I'm so confused. Everything kind of makes sense until she gets to the forest, and then it's like Penguindrum all over again, except the origin of all this magic and strangeness is even more unclear. I forgot what it was like to be this disoriented. I mean, what the hell is this school?
That said, Ikuhara's flair for striking visual imagery still holds. The silhouette actors, the shadow chorus, the dueling grounds floating in space... it definitely captures the imagination.
I don't have enough to go on yet to make any kind of predictions about the why of anything, but I look forward to learning more.
This is a telling comment I feel. If you look past all the 'will they or wont they' antics regarding Ichika and Boob-Alien I don't really care about their characters inn the slightest. I have no interest in seeing what they'd do with the rest of their lives outside of this very specific set-up.Ano Natsu 10
The focus on all the side characters, who coincidentally are more interesting then the mains, was all well done[...]
I would say the mecha but I'm not a big fan of their designs and the fact that they're 3D. It might be more interesting if you tortured yourself with the original, that way your expectations will be low so everything will look so much better.

I feel that the sign of a strong character in any show with a 'romance' aspect is whether you'd still be interested in seeing what they were up to if it had nothing to do with that particular romantic plot.
So, I was finally able to convince one of my friends to watch Penguindrum after I saw the ending and told him it was like that time he watched Evangelion mixed with that time he watched Madoka or something (whatever works, right?). I knew it was something he'd like, and as he gave me his reactions during his marathon of the series, I was glad to be proven right. Reliving the series again through his reactions to it made me appreciate it even more.

Why do you hate yourself?
I just thought I'd pose a little challenge to see how well folks in this thread can work out what 'the anime community' thinks about a given anime title. In this case, I am referring to everyone's favourite pointless metric: ANN scores.
So, for example, can anyone have a guess at working out the name of this particular anime? (Without trying to look it up!) I'll give you a hint - it's a very well respected title! Barely anyone (apparently) dislikes this show, or even thinks that it's average.

This is dangerous territory here. It's almost like you're implying that it deserves to sell well because it's actually well made, when in reality that's probably not the main cause of it's success!
People who watch BLood-C love themselves. It is a joy to watch Blood-C.
did Saya's singing not stir something joyous in your soul?

Minor bug: Stop that singing!

To be fair, ANN ratings are truly awful.

Oh shit, it really is AnoHana.
We have a winner.
What's my prize?
What are other shows that people hate that have a really good OP/ED?

Wait, was Mind Game your first Yuasa experience?

Tell us how you really feel.
No no, because you see Ano Hana is rated higher than Cowboy Bebop.
I'm being completely serious here.
