How the fuck did Sousuke make it across that wide open field without being detected? And that cheesy one-liner, lol.

Next episode looks like it's going to be awesome as fuck.

He's a specialist! And get ready for cheese. Gatoh loves it.

Because he is Sousuke. Dont ask questions or he will have to make you disappear.
 
When you say fat, do you mean fat fat, or fat as in "she's at a healthy body type" fat?

I don't know why, but this entire story has reminded me of the time me and my roommates spent an entire semester watching "The Bachelor" and rooting for the one armed woman whilst placing bets on how long she would actually last.
I watched the first season of this show... watching a bunch of nerds be terrible to each other and having really awkward challenges makes it... something else.
Apparently they are going to debate who will win in a fight, The Enterprise or the Millennium Falcon, as a competition.

What is said spoiler?
It's a pretty big one, so I'm just going to avoid typing it here... I presume it's easily found out there though?

So it's the internet on TV?

whoa

and why didn't you wait like 20 seconds you stupid rescue planes argh

Because then the romancing doesn't get to happen, haha.

Look at the piggy. Needs to stop with the chocolates and hit the gym more.

Chitanda was the one who snarfed all the chocolates. That way she could be hung over while boring girl gave Hotaro the world's laziest blowjob.

It is, but with a lot of try hard nerd stuff that is about as subtle as The Big Bang theory.

(They live in a big house with a Radio Shack in it, for instance).

People still go to Radio Shack?

I keep thinking that I would get tired of hot lesbian girls doing hot lesbian things but this show just keeps proving me wrong. On another note, I love it when Yuu does something to make Haruka jealous. It's incredibly cute. And is it just me or does anyone else sense some possible NTR with the older sister?

A big dramatic moment and there are just panty shots fucking everywhere. Amazing.

What an awful cliffhanger to leave on. Ah well, more tomorrow!

That's Gonzo. It's not nearly as bad ever again, though I won't say that fanservice during dramatic moments never again happens once KyoAni takes over.
 
PUPIPO SPOILER YOU SHOULDN'T READ BUT ARE PROBABLY GOING TO ANYWAY
Po-chan is apparently the ghost of Wakaba's miscarried child from the future.

And yeah, Gintama is pretty awesome so far. Ep 25 was legendary.

You know i was going to say after today's episode line that
somebody had a miscarriage considering the "he looks like you" line but I didn't expect time traveling ghost. I can also assume I know who she marries considering red headed boy has been made a big character

As to Gintama, glad you love it. Watching it again it's a bit eerie to see how the animation/art style looked like early on. It doesn't evolve completely but it does get so much better. This is like watching earlier episodes of Simpsons.

I mean I don't mind fanservice in my anime too much but this time it got near creepy levels man.

Not gonna lie I completely forgot this show had panty shots every now and then and just like with Yozakura Quartet they feel so fucking out of place in this anime.

The brand doesn't exist where I live anyway!

(Funny enough, all of Canada's Radio Shacks were bought by Circuit City and then rebranded. Of course, Circuit City is dead, but this Canadian arm still seems to exist as a bit of a zombie.)

psycho-pass episode 12
got backstory on the other girl of the group, I liked it, new opening, I like the song more but I liked the visuals better in the first OP, ending idk if I like better than the first one or not.
I might be one :O

Your description makes this show sound like possibly the best thing ever, which of course it is.

Yeah, once the move has been made from Gonzo to KyoAni it's lessened. I can only really think of two more examples in the entire series, one of which is possibly meant to be creepy. The two that come to mind are MAJOR SPOILERS
When Kaname is in nothing but her panties just before stunning Yui Lan and when Sophia is dressing in her plug suit for Tartaros. In the first instance, Kaname has to strip down because she realizes there's a tracking device hidden somewhere on her body and the scene has a character who is a psychotic creep remark how beautiful she looks in the rain. The other scene Sophia doesn't give a flying fuck about anything cuz she's an omnicidal bitch, and she's caught mid-motion by Sousuke's speech. It's not a particularly amazing justification, but I feel that in both scenes the crazy stuff going on is much more important than the fan service, and that considering the context (a girl running for her life and a woman trying to destroy the world) neither one is particularly attractive.

I don't know that I've seen one in years.
 
Hitokage made a comment I found interesting over in the OT anime thread about how the Military nerds pretty much disappeared from the scene. What exactly caused that? And would the success of stuff like GuP and other more militaristic works bring them back? Were they that big of an influence? Does the cross over between the military ala Kancolle, GuP, whatever that stupid gun show was, and the militarys new found recruting drive be part of that? Sorry if this seems like a stupid question but it just really struck me given just how many of my military friends used to be anime friends but aren't any more.

Sure can't wait for the Idolmaster movie to be released on Blu-ray later this year.

It's part of a new batch, so you might want to point that out next time and give drop credit. Post things you like, fine, but give the others a chance to find their favorites.

Anyways, looking at the previews there should be two Nourin plus a pair of lewd Maken-ki pinups coming and a Sakura Trick one, latter one I imagine will make some people happy. :p The bigger pinups (sample photos: 1, http://www.earlbox3.sakura.ne.jp/ph/140128c.jpg=]2) usually get posted last.

Ever heard of The Real Superstore? Now THAT is a zombie store.

The most obvious reason is the dwindling relvance of World War II and the generation that grew up after it, but I wouldn't say that's the only reason.

I imagine it's also harder for them to romanticize WWII than it is for America, since WWII is still an all time fave over here.

I can't help but feel that Rec is every bit as crazy as everyone else living on the riverbank. Also, I think Sister is my favorite character so far. Nino is really cute in this episode (potential waifu material, though I think that's what they're getting at with star-head dude).

Yeah, yeah, fine.

Anyway, there was one for Wake Up, Girls!, which is thankfully wholesome, and two more for Saki, which are more nsfw.

When I finally finish Monogatari I'm probably just going to find a way to make an amicable departure from this forum. Otherwise I know it's not going to be a matter of if I'll ever be permabanned, but when.

He's more referring to vehicles & planes, I think, where you had kids growing up drawing that shit all the time becoming animators who drew that shit all the time. Mechanical animation isn't in as much demand anymore either thanks to CG.

We have "The Real Canadian Superstore"... I wonder if they're related.

Thats exactly the same. The chain pulled completely out of the US and is completely Canadian.
the huge stores still exost. The one here was turned into a 16plex cinema and still has the old sign repurposed into a cinema one.

Did BGBW ever say if he was going to also tabulate the AnimeGAF-specific AotY results? Because I can just get started on that if not.

I mean passion for all things military in general, even fictionalized stuff like mecha.

I really miss that sort of animation.

Weren't you guys supposed to do technical categories too?

That's something separate, informal, and internal to this thread if it's ever going to happen at all. Branduil was the one pushing for it so it's up to him.
