Oyajiide was "bullying" Onpu, Hana proceeds to scar Onpu for life

Subtle commentary that's probably relevant to this day

Surprise, the white elephant is also the most important elephant, but I'm not sure how.

Onpu's too bold though. Forcing everyone to Samba

Actually, there was one thing that bothered the fuck out of me
and that was Pop not going with them to the witch world because she has to see Kimitaka off. He already fucking left! What the fuck?

I do not recall a love triangle, as this following show was not as enjoyable as MM! for me, but I would assume you are talking about R-15. Pretty sure this was censored like crazy too. Probably the reason I enjoyed MM! being slightly more tame.

If you want to confirm if this is the show you think it is Crunchyroll has it to stream, that is assuming Canada has streaming rights. http://www.crunchyroll.com/r-15
Yeah, that's it. lol

It either had a triangle or a harem though, I can't remember. But the guy's porn hangup is a barrier, like MM guy's masochist tendencies.

This is all just a game to the Headmistress, isn't it? Johnny's right; many of the things she does are just for her own amusement. Announcing Powa Powa Puririn as a member of the tour and live filming them without realizing it? Her idea of fun I guess.

Maturity, bitches.
So instead of catching up with the shows I'm watching or watching something new from this season I decided to rewatch the Sigh of Haruhi Suzumiya instead.
 
Hamatora Episode 3 – File 03: Haves and Have-nots
tumblr_mzrqpszc521t3apmto1_500.gif

Well it had one of the better conversations this season with the Art dilemma and presenting both sides to the argument of people and Minimum powers and how their is envy and oppression or such from the jealous feelings those that arent Minimum Holders have towards they that are. The different perspectives, characters and their motivations on full display tying in to the still steadily growing large plot made it even better than the previous two.

Nice action and the comedy with Ratio and Birthday was amazing.
 
Yeah, that's it. lol

Well Sado's masochism was
cured for one episode in MM!, but it returned once he regained his memories
.

You could also go a bit out there to mask Sado's masochist tendencies by picturing the main voice cast's characters were switched to characters they voiced in other anime. So now Lelouch Lamperouge is being attacked by Azu-nyan bacause her friend Ikaros lost her master to the cross-dressing Saki Kasukabe.
 
Hunter x Hunter (2011) 21-28

I love how Killua and Gon can clear the first 100 floors without breaking a sweat. Hopefully the 200s provide more of a challenge.

That's some rabbit hole. lol

Very funny. I enjoyed how Shino and Ara missed having their "straight men"
What's interesting is that a lot of that is just missing from the manga. The anime really is filling in a lot of jokes in order to make the episodes work, which is nice.
Heck, there isn't even an Okinawa side of the trip in the manga.

I can already see why too

Nisekoi 2

Yeah that OP makes it quite prevalent with the symbolism. Most obviously that there are
two different keys for the locket.
If thats the case then yeaaaaaaaaah.

But I really don't like Onodera. I hope she loses and loses bad. I want her sobbing tears of defeat by the end of this show. Chitoge is the best.

So far this is a SHAFT version of My Bride is a Mermaid. I'm digging it but I can already see how this show is going to fall apart. Hope I'm wrong!

Most of the girls I think are best lose completely anyway. Im sure Onodera will be no different.

I knew something didn't quite fit when I was watching.

When I watch an anime series, having a great voice cast is key. The voice actors can make or break a character, so even if I do not enjoy the plot, art, music, etc. of the anime I can usually finish almost anything so long I as enjoy the voice actors' performances.

Doesn't look like we're returning to lighthearted school antics any time soon. The intrigue, it is everywhere. There's a new super-mysterious girl, who seems to have the same VA as Hokuto from the very beginning of the series. If that's relevant in some way, I can't fathom how. And we have strong hints about the identity of everybody's favourite mysterious loli-loving loli, Suzu-senpai. Oh, and some kind of impending political kerfuffle which will inevitably result in chaos. Yaaaaay.

When do we get to the arc where Harutora falls into a coma and Kon has to take over as the main character? </wishfulthinking>

Since Kobayashi is dead, I'm not sure where else to put my VA obsession. I guess Sawashiro, but meh.

The manga is very barebones. It's like K-On in that respect. I actually like what they added, since otherwise it's mostly just Kotomi jokes.
 
Detective Conan 286:
Yukiko is a terrifying drver; no one should ever get in a car with her. Yukiko can always be counted on for entertainment, if nothing else. And we get to see Sharon Vineyard, which is great. Her disguise skills are legendary. The New York case has always been a favorite of mine because of how much is going on in it. Even the Shinichi/Ran stuff is pretty nice here; I think there's a certain innocence to it in the time before the series.

Even though the events at the end of the episode wouldn't normally be that exciting, Theme of Old Castle has a way of making anything seem really awesome.

Since we're on harem talk, I was wondering which shows (or mangas) have the main character end up with someone other than the "main" girl?

The only one I can think of ATM is Ichigo 100%.

Doesn't she drive the car on one side on two wheels..? Yikes.

I just realized that the
King of the Googol Empire is basically Inferno Cop...but not as funny...

Hamatora 3

Yeah this villain is definitely cast in the same mould as Makishima from Psycho-Pass. Just look at him wax lyrical about his twisted ideals as he strolls about behind the scenes, breaking partnerships as easily as he forms them, and leaving death, chaos and destruction in his wake. Oh, and smirking constantly because he knows full well nobody has the means to hold him accountable.

Meanwhile whoever wrote this show sure wanted our protags' client of the day to seem detestable, because they made her an advocate of anime/manga censorship of all things. I can't deny it worked. What a bitch.
Glad she got what was coming to her.
