I never knew that was the other definition of Regalia, the way they use it in Nobunaga the Fool was always how I imagined it to be, so seeing it in Noragami made me think it was just being used incorrectly or something.

Trigun 12
Very dramatic episode. Quite the intense fight between Vash and that assassin especially when Vash sticked his gun on his face

Yeah, Chuuni, Tamako, Hyouka and KnK are very high quality projects, completely different from their usual stuff.
The Utena of our times.

This reminds me that I never watched the Trigun film.
Should I bother or was it terrible?

It's been about 8 years since I last watched it, but I'm sure I'll still like it.
Will pick it up soon then!

One can only hope.
Another Full Metal Panic season while they're at it would be nice.
Munto.

Likeable male characters?
EDIT: Oh wait, Tamako Market had the bird. Ignore this post.

Tamako Market was, right? Or am I misunderstanding.

Zombies in space? Not even October. Creator must have wanted a zombie-centric episode. It wasn't bad, just not as good as the previous 3. QT not being impervious was funny.

I did like Trigun myself but have put off watching the movie for the longest time. Good to hear that it's enjoyable.
Ew, Haruhi.

Bit of an unintended marathon there. It feels like it's just getting better, I can't honestly remember much of the plot of the original anime anymore. The plot of that one was probably a bit messy
To give just one bit of criticism, the sudden shifts to slapstick/gag humor during serious moments where even the art changes, are incredibly annoying most of the time. Hellsing Ultimate did something like this, but in that show it didn't quite create sudden mood whiplash, the comedy was generally funnier, and the comedy visuals were more appealing.
Really though, that's my only issue with this show and it's largely a minor one.

>She is serenity and magnanimity personified.
>Her home is a lunch store (bento-ya), so she loves eating and making food.
>Saying "Food is the source of happiness" like a meddlesome aunt, she urges any child that feels down to eat something.

If she's not the new designated fat one of the Cure fanbase, we have a problem

I'm glad you're still watching this show. Kiruminzoo was a total cutenuke.

Have we already arrived at the point in time where people feel nostalgic toward Haruhi/FMP & al ?
I'm not sure if I must feel older and older, or just laught at the ironic side of the situation

It helps that I got 2 out of 3 shows completely out of the way now.
...that reminds me, I'm surprised it took like... 13 episodes for them to make a Mystery Club.
Welp, time running out for submitting my AOTY post.
Two thing that bugging me :
1. I'm uncertain to put show recurring show like JoJo and Girl und Panzer or not, I think I'm already putting them so high and make my point last year, maybe its better to serve the spot for other title. I'll put Side-A on there though since I don't vote it last year and just recently watch it.
2. Argh those few spot for Movie/OVA selection.

I actually felt like I had too much space for movies and OVAs, since I like, never watch those. I was all "So I watched Wolf Children and what else in this category all year? Nothing?" Had to really reach to find things, haha.
They might continue it forever. Its what theyre good at.
KyoAni might just be a one trick pony.
Well you don't watch that much of those!
I have about 6 equally worthy candidate for that 3 spot.
These are all shows that explore different subject matter unrelated to the others. The only similarities are LN origins and character designs.
One of these is not like the others.
I know. Chuuni is in a second season.

Felt like my sarcasm detector activated all of a sudden ....
This whole thing is silly.
KyoAni has always worked on projects like these. Its what they are. Its what they obviously like to do. This is their identity for a few decades now. Why do people expect them to change?

It's actually right there in the text of the JP image you posted, the translation just left it out for whatever reason.
"A friend of Megumi's from her year. In the same class. A 'soothing type' (iyashi-kei) who calms her surroundings with a soft and fluffy atmosphere. Has a slightly chubby figure."
