That many chapters? out of how many? Because Attack on Titan managed to squeeze 30 or so chapters in 25 episodes. So at this speed the arc won't end for a while.
Dude, WSJ page per chapter is like 16.. AoT maybe being thrice at that being a monthly mango.
The anime (HxH) usually adapting 3-4 chapter per episode,

Ah that is reassuring. Elections arc will probably be as long as the other arcs then.

There were thighs this episode. That made it better than last weeks.

All right. Now that I've caught up with Hunter x Hunter I might as well catch up with Valerian and Laureline. Then it'll either be go with the second season of Gundam Seed or watch another one of the shows in my watch list.

And just as they were reborn, they decide to slumber once more. And yes, apparently Ichigo's mother was also a climbing badass.
I was expecting something a bit more... scandalous for why she decided to run a bento shop instead, but eh. Raichi and Mizuki became more clever that day.
2 episodes left until the first season is over.

As this specific arc partially wraps itself up I am only more confused as to what the purpose of it all was. i dunno, fk this show or somethin.
The fights in this show should be so much better. On one side you have nobodies that puff themselves up for five to ten minutes before getting thrashed like nothing, and on the other end you have characters that the show deems too important to mess with sparring with one another in low stakes battles. There's no intensity to either arrangement. The show even kind of sets up that maybe someone will lose a hand or something just to spice things up a little, but it kind of just immediately writes off those complications for more awkward flying and flailing around the city scape. High impact moments tend to devolve into startling CG segments. For all the effort put into the background work there is little done with it to maintain a consistency that establishes defined locations for fights. Characters fly off across the city and magically show back up in yelling distance to other members of the cast they should have left behind.

Witch Craft Works 3
Mizushima continues to work his magic with this elevating the source material to new heights despite the flying CG scenes that'd look right at home in Attack on Titan. On the bright side, the bus scene was pretty ace and the city looked alright when they were far above it which bodes well for whats to come.

Would've been great to give us one whole solid episode of good animation.
Needless to say, the status quo is back to normal.

Yamato 2199 1-4
The OP of Yamato 2199 give me goosebumps, sooo good.
Fours episodes so far, super impressed with it, I'm hardly an expert to compare but the CG looks well done and everything, dunno how to express it, grounded? There is a sense of credibility in the setting, the characters, the ships...
I love how they are considered sailors, I guess it´s the same time such setting is used in Sci-Fi but I had never thought about it.
Yokazura Quartet Ending
In other order of things I finished Yokazura Quartet, enjoyed it a lot
Great animation, lovely characters, great action ( would have liked a bit more though). I don't get the panties overload but I guess is one of those things you have to accept when watching anime.

I just wish the ending was a bit less rushed and more conclusive, but seems anime tends to do this about letting things open

Well considering how things will go for the ending, based on how this episode ended, it probably would be a bittersweet ending.... if you know, there wasn't a second season or anything.
That being said, the victor for round 1 shouldn't be a surprise, and everyone has something laid out in front of them.

You make me sad, Corvo. If Marie (and other Golden stuff) was in P4 The Animation I'd probably have actually got around to watching it. She's awesome.
Ehhhhh, normally I'm a Miyukichi man, but BRS TV was all about the HanaKana.
ahahahahahahaha if only that were true
If by best you mean worst. I mean, it's not like the competition is particularly strong or anything, but I have to go for Mui because she's at least kinda cute. Kurumi is just insufferable. (I reserve the right to reverse this opinion if and when Kurumi transforms into a loli.)
Eh, I dunno, I find the brother's barefaced hatred kind of fun. It's obviously nonsensical, but fun. Psychopathic characters entertain me.
Yeah, it definitely feels like this show's pacing is completely off the hook. Like it forgot to have an actual plot or develop its characters and instead just rushed straight into weird LN drama antics stuff. I've half a mind to drop it already, since it's obviously the basest kind of LN dreck out there, but for some reason I keep watching.
K-ON!!-10
Why do people argue over waifus in K-ON? It's clear who the winner is. People acting like a bunch of birds picking up dinner scraps that have fallen off the table.
Neither of these opinions include Ritsu, and therefore they are wrong.
Ritsu > Azunyan > Yui > Ui > Mugi > Mio > Nodoka > Sawachansensei
This is truth.
Yeah this happened occasionally at our college anime club but rules were quickly put in place to calm it down. Eventually it loosened back up but people got the point. Then it was some of the most fun I have ever had in my life.
Watch the Utena dub and be enlightened
Probably has to do with the extras problem. I doubt theyd just pull the show indefinitely.
This show is whacked but I made it about halfway before dropping it. Its cute and silly but really I didnt like it enough to fully finish it. The girl is a cutie though.
I graduated from animuz clubs so idk anymore.
Never felt like I fully fit in anyway, what with being a 5th-year law student in a club mainly filled with 1st-3rd year IT/finance kids whose tastes in anime ranged widely. I'm general enough to get by but a lot of SAO and AoT was being talked about and I kind of just tuned it out.
Also I've perhaps gotten too used to forum posting format and trying to start discussion on the facebook group about stuff is... weird. Weirder still is IRL, really.

Aikatsu! 50 S1 END
Well, as much as the beginning of the season kind of piled on potential for drama, it actually ended up being more of a fun ride seeing everyone develop, on top of all the merchandising. Granted, some characters in this got shafted, partly because they're not part of the core idol group.
Initially, I had a bit of an issue with repetition in song use, but it was something that actually got better over time. Same with CG... although... I think that was only after the initial ten episodes. I am aware however, that the CG for S2 will be much better in comparison. Speaking of which, there sure was some QUALITY in the final stretch.
The Unit arc was a bit weird for me... mainly because the actual lead up to Tri Star took a while to formula, whereas Soleil and PowaPowaPuririn were more quick and to the punch in terms of how long it lasted. The latter was more of a joke team though (I mean it had fucking Shion on there, and she wasn't relevant for like... a while. She's kind of like the butt of the joke sadly.)
I think for the most part, it wrapped up whatever loose ends that existed in S1, which I enjoyed at least, especially with that Masquerade treat near the end. Fuck, I enjoyed it, despite whatever issues I had with it. It was pretty much fun fun fun throughout. Kaede is the shit btw. Think that's the 3rd or 4th time I mentioned it.
I guess at some point, it'll be time to see our new idols, including one that apparently pisses people off.
Mizuki is still too strong, and Ichigo leaves Starlight to go to America. Mizuki also left Starlight Academy as well

Hmm. A lot of changes in my life happened because of anime. I found new friends in college, saw new anime, explored old stuff, made longtime acquaintances and friends who became roommates, gained confidence in myself and finally accepted who I was, got out of the house because of said friends, went to parties, did actual social things, and even perplexed a police officer who though he caught a drug runner.
Anime has been so awesome to me. So much fun. So many great memories.
I was afraid of this shit happeneing
At least last ep gave us Miss Ultrasonic odangos so not all is lost.

Don't freaking drive , if you're tired ! Wasn't there no hotel room to rent ? or was that yet again ghost banri curse ?
Why is there a trend for posting tumblr-esque .gif responses in here lately?
It's not a secret if everybody knows!

Now that I've finished Yamato I feel like there is a hole in my watching schedule that I need to fill.
Anyone got any suggestions on a show that is vaguely similar?
Tumblr is hip and cool therefore so are the .gif's!

It's a terrible feeling, I had a similar experience when I finished Evangelion sometime last year.
I'm sure there is another show out there to take it's place, I've just got to find it!

Ritsu top and Sawa bottom? This is my kind of list!
Sorry, I only seem capable of suggesting shows that leave you with a lingering melancholy!

It's all your fault!
But honestly, I wouldn't of ever watched Yamato or Gun/Diebuster if it wasn't for your suggestions! and they,
Minus Diebuster.
Eh, that's very exaggerated. Just look at Happy Endings (RIP) or Shameless.

Subete no aware
I don't count Shameless because it's Showtime, but I take your point. It's changing, but it's not really truly normalized.
I assume the networks don't get as many complaints as they probably used to anyway.

But he pushed him in front of a moving vehicle, how cruel is that.
Romance stuff was a bit way too much or either I dozed off as I cant even remember it this episode.

Hunter x Hunter (2011) 85-91
Honestly, I like the Chimera Ant King. Though if the Royal Guard is that insanely strong, I have to wonder if anyone can fight with him. Regardless, Neferpitou is still being creepy and I can't wait to see Gon's reaction to his mad-sciency use of Kite.
I assumed
the main character pushed his brother out of the way.
IMO, it's worse than average compared to a typical LN adaptation. :<

i think it was actually the opposite and that moron was actually too angry to realise that . proof is that he's perfectly fine.
Well that episode was full of drama
K-ON!!-10
Why do people argue over waifus in K-ON? It's clear who the winner is. People acting like a bunch of birds picking up dinner scraps that have fallen off the table.
Sawako is the best girl in the show, however the best K-on is Ritsu. Its complicated.
Still, I went out and bought the set and its this episodes fault
Saki 07
The power of the penguin.
Penguins hold all the keys to victory.
Best girl hasnt shown up yet. Also I liked how the next episode wasnt what youd think.
Hell yes. I somehow forgot to quote this one but I shall buy this without hesitation. Wish it was NISA though.
