Those FSN designs look pretty standard, not much to say either way there other than Berserker should look angrier.

The Escha & Logy anime seems a bit odd. What's the point of an adaptation a year after the game's release?
Witch Craft Works - Episode 4
Hey guys what's going on her--
--oh okay.
Lol.
This show is soooo weird. But it's pretty funny and the action is surprisingly good. I think I'm a Mizushima believer to the end now.

Inari Konkon Koi Iroha - Episode 3
This entire episode was one big troll. Some of the trolling was pretty funny, but it's just so weird. The best part of this series is definitely the strange but somewhat fitting ongoing gag about Uka's obsession with fujoshi games. I see they're milking it for all its worth now.

The only thing worse than #teamkanna is #teamtaichi.
I might be switching to him soon too!
I won't make a verdict till the end of S2 though.
Will watch for my waifus Linca and Marion.
Then shes just like me and thats fine too.

From the studio that brought you Humanity Has Declined comes yet another adaptation of another work from the same author, Romeo Tanaka. It covers a pretty similar ground to Chuu2 but with a far more morbid and realist take on the matter, dealing with issues ranging from petty bullying and social ostracism to blackmail, severe physical beatings,
It really doesn't pull any punches and ultimately ends up sending a far stronger and worthwhile message than Chuu2 ever did. Even the "romance" angle is far better handled as
by the end of the movie.
I still need to watch the Blue Exorcist movie and Shinkai's foot porn thing before times up but I doubt either will be able to take this movies position on my 2013 AOTY vote. Watch it.

broken homes, domestic violence and attempted suicide.
the two main characters kiss and show genuine affection for one another

Oh, this sounds quite interesting!
If someone graffiti'd on my desk like that I'd just swap with theirs/a random one if perpetrator is less obvious. I mean what are they going do do, keep scrawling on my desk until every desk in the classroom is scribbled on?
As you can tell we didn't have individual desks at school.

Do they make adjustment for Archer's design?
His jacket actually look nice now. And I love their face, based ufotable etc
The Yukari heathens were noted.

Stop sexualizing Ankou Chiimu.
So tomorrow then.

This is acceptable.

That was pretty good, Benio and Mashiro makes this show enjoyable.
Mother of god. You posted Mashiro AGAIN.

Actually i've seen only ep 1 of najica but i'm pretty sure, maken-ki has it beat .i don't like najica so i won't go back to count.
I don't have stats since at the time of viewing (najica ) my counter wasn't implemented.

Actual best.
Yep she is her own entity , and that's what make her an actually superior.
Not an atelier anime if i'm not watching them during hours in front of a cauldron making explosive barrels !
Barrel!
I like Maho :|
The plot goes something like this:
- Meaningless characters steal Kon's screentime for extended periods
- The world drowns in despair
- Kon makes a brief appearance
- The world rejoices
- Repeat ad infinitum
It has its enjoyable points, but it's definitely not something I'd recommend to people.
Not me.
See it's funny because the female teacher doesn't have a boyfriend and is touchy about this fact. This is a character archetype that has never been seen in any other anime ever.
I can think of a few counterexamples to Tenet 1, most notably Kashimashi (manga version, as well as anime version if you count the about-face OVA ending), and also the oft-quoted Kokoro Connect.
also OreImo, where the best girl won even though she wasn't the correct choice for the MC
Tenet 2 seems like a bit of a moot point, since there is never a true consensus. On those rare occasions when there is something resembling a consensus, I find it's more often on the mark than not, so this tenet seems fundamentally flawed.
Tenet 3...I can't think of any counterexamples to. And it's true that green isn't the nicest of hair colours. Then again, I can't really think of all that many green-haired girls in general, so I'm hesitant to accept this one as an actual law. I'm sure there's an amazing green-haired girl out there somewhere. Right? Right??
You have my sword/axe/whatever weaponlike implement I happen to have to hand.

This is true about 99% of the time.
Wasn't there a Vita port coming out or am I thinking of Ayesha? If there isn't one now it'll probably be announced sometime soon after.

What is the name of the anime with the girl who befriends those same faced gnomes after the end of the world or some shenanigans like that?

Angel Beats is a pretty amazing series with great comedy, good emotion and an extremely memorable story that you'd remember for years. Rewatched it every year and such. The soundtrack is also one of its best selling points as Girl Dead Monster is a good group and the va's are perfect. Comedy is through the roof at times and the cast is quite robust through and through. Definitely check it out.
Little Busters is less good than Anohana and better than Clannad. I think Little Busters! had awkward writing and direction at times and left me a bit unsatisfied at the end. Good cast but potentially a bit too dragged out. Oh well, it also suffered from having a secondary character that became way better and more memorable than the lead.
Oh well, it did have the writers best character.
I feel we need to see and bask in this .gif again.
It never gets old.

She's definitely the best girl in the show. MC is a sucka for
not joining her group instead
Engaged the Unidentified 04
Both families have a motif of "red" and "white" going on with their kids' names, I've noticed. In regards to what exactly Mashiro and Hakuya are, going by the OP/ED, I'm thinking either aliens or tengu, since they live in the mountains. Or maybe they're just really good at martial arts, that's the sort of thing that should be accounted for. Seeing Kobeni be able to read Hakuya's expressions when they never change is hilarious. Otherwise, Mashiro is challenging Non Non Biyori's Renge in sheer cuteness, and Benio is a force of nature. So, as enjoyable as always.

Yeah the whole read the manga thing was a kick in the balls for an otherwise really amazing series.
The manga isn't enjoyable as the anime IMO. The execution of the anime is what makes it so good much more so than the actual content, still its worth reading because there wont ever be a S2 for the anime.
I beg to differ.
Brah you crazy. Ranka is just a notch behind Minmay as worst Macross girl. The best part about Macross F was how you could tell they were pushing Ranka as the main girl but over the course of the show Sheryl took the lead role because she was the better girl and she was selling the merch.
Sheryl
was the best girl by far and she won as she should have.

I'm interested, but I'd rather play the game first and at the rate I'm getting through the Atelier titles (1 every 2 years) I won't finish Escha & Logy until 2019.
In waifu related news, Kurumi's glorious return has been confirmed for the new Date A Live PS3 game.

Tomodachi wa Mahou
Theres Furigana in Date A Live? Was that the case with the first game?
Doesn't look like it did from screenshots (unless it's hidden in an option menu somewhere).
The new game does certainly seem to have a proliferous supply of them, though.

Yes january jpn bday fans are the best, time for Kurokocchi! (kurobas 1-31). They even got the figure that released a few days ago, still waiting on mine to ship

At least the Sayu/Kaname romance is less awkward than Hikari/Miuna, if only because the words "technically her uncle" don't factor into it. This is really looking more and more like Miuna's story as this goes on. She's been one of the stronger throughlines of the series. I wonder if the Ena awakening has to do with something scientific like recessive genes, or something mystical like she wanted to make it happen. Either way, Miuna's having her own Little Mermaid 2 story here. ...and now I feel bad I compared something to a Disney DTV.

Coolio. Looking to finally play some Japanese games at some point this year when I feel more comfortable with my nihongo but it'll definitely have to be with furigana for a good while.
Witch Craft Works - 01
I wish they use handdrawn stuff instead those ugly CG for action stuff
But wow this actually really good, I avoiding this show because thought they fucked this real hard.. this actually very fun. And they actually nail the colorful looks from the manga, I'm pretty convinced to Mizushima as director right now.
And that ED is so awesome.

But see the criteria force a unanimous decision that Relm is the best, thereby eliminating her as the best.
So good.
Well, we now have a vague idea of how Samurai Flamenco and Coppelion are doing sales-wise thanks to a low enough extended sales threshold for their latest volumes to finally show up on the charts:
http://www.someanithing.com/?p=698
Samurai Flamenco vol.2 -- 281 BDs, <320 DVDs
Coppelion vol.3 -- 277 BDs, <320 DVDs
So the earlier volumes for those series were probably just a bit better than those numbers.
Also, Dansai Bunri no Crime Edge clocks in with a fantastic final per-volume average of 295.

Will we ever know the final per-volume averages for C3-bu?
This looks pretty good, will have to check it out.
