I'm not even going to go into that territory.
If it's in CG, then it's a different story.
Hakase in a ponytail is extremely cute.
Sky Girls 15-17
The show is really playing up the Eika/Elise dynamic at this point. Two stubborn hotheads who refuse to give in, while Otoha's all chill and Karen's being adorable. This is why I liked that episode 16 was a bit of change of pace by focusing on Nanae's family. I don't think her love interest will show up again, given the nature of the episode, but Elise did voice a complaint that I'm sure a lot of people will agree with.
The desert island episode was nice - these girls are pretty efficient in their survival skills. Episode 15 probably had the most dramatic punch of the three, dealing directly with Eika's daddy issues. The gesture at the end was pretty heartwarming. Overall, it continues to be a nice series, even if there's nothing super standout about it and

Yuki is apparently some sort of human worm host now.

Kuroko's Basketball - Episode 43
It's been a long time since an show has had me so on edge. Such a great close to this back and forth series.
Hold up.
Did this show actually start getting good again? Might need to power through the last couple of episodes if so.

Watching Kagami develop from a punk ass kid who thinks he can take on everyone into a cool headed leader was the best part of this game. Watching Aomine and Kuroko mend their relationship was also very touching.
If there's anything negative to say it's that I think they took down Aomine too soon. He had this final boss feel to him that the other generation of miracles (captain excluded) just didn't possess.

Episode was fun, the brother's ways of making sense of the whole situation were interesting and remarkably believable, and the brief flashback to how Hiyori ended up in this situation was kind of thought-provoking as well.
But then that sequence after the credits was on a whole different level of brilliance XD

Slightly less boring at the end. Not really good though. Girl is too shy and not funny.

Didn't have anytime in the week to touch the backlog.
Maison Ikkoku - 90~96 - END + Movie
With a little work Kyoko(
) noticed that she should not have leaved Ikkoku-kan so hastly.
In the end Kozue-chan had a happy end(?), right?
I want the all the children calling Godai, Buchou. It's so cute.
Godai trying
? Great idea, right? no.
Fucking Godai
. PARUTO PARUTO.
One year later...
Aaaand I don't
. It was nice to see some of the people again in the end.
Loved the evolution of the pyou pyou appron from Ichinose. And a lot of people at Chachamaru. Always like the sight of Godai being surrounded by kids. After his speech...The story flashes forward and reveals the fates of Kozue, Ibuki, Shun and Asuna(
), Master and Akemi(
). In Ikkoku-kan everyone waits the arrival of
It was a fun ride. Loved the setting, with people who are of age( In college, over it, already working, married, etc), so they could drink and do wathever they wanted. Alone Again(Naturally) and Get Down couldn't be beaten. Mr. 2 looked like a "nice" guy(What's upwith the animation in the movie? lol), I'll have to read the manga later, but for now...
Urusei Yatsura - 01
The MC he reminds me of someone. But I can't remember who...maybe Joe?
Look it's a love triangle. Shinobu is totally waifu material.

From Otonashi-san and Akemi
In the end Kozue-chan had a happy end(?), right?
Even if Akemi almost got then to end in a sour note, they could talk one last time and clear things between then, Kozue-chan didn't deserve to end with tears, Rumiko even created a rich senpai for her.
But she suffered with something I don't like with Mitsuru Adachi works too, when people are done with their importance in the history they simple disappear, after Kozue-chan said she got a job, she wasn't in any episode until these last ones. Same goes for Kotaro and he lives at Ikkoku-kan.

Godai trying
to make his proposal on a public phone
But in the end he did a nice job, and Kyoko asking for him to outlive her since it was her only worry since Souichiro died before her and she would not be able to live alone anymore. ;__;
's grandma, first she gave me nightmares with that bunny outfit and now she had me worried because of the flags, but she had everything planned alright. Calling the rest of the tenants for the celebration was nice, because Godai would not have gone anywhere without them
One year later...
Aaaand I don't
get to see Souichiro face in the end
Ikuko-chan can't talk about Koutaro, she's in college and she didn't change anything too.
They are making the dream I had for Godai and Kyoko, a house full of kids...calling him Buchou
wut!?
Kyoko from the hospital. As the taxi pulls up the happy couple steps out with their new baby, Haruka. Everyone welcomes her to her new home as the series ends. I would like for it to go further, but who wouldn't. Dammit I want to see Ikkoku-kan full of children calling Godai Buchou. Good Anime.

Might as well take Yotsuya advice.

Kuroko finally had sakuga? aw yiss.
Fuck you Shueisha and Production IG for being cheap.

Renge is such a cutie. I don't know who put together that dating desirability list, but they clearly fucked up, putting her 27th. She should be right up there at the top.
I have a sneaking suspicion I can tell you who is (undeservedly) right at the top of that list, though
Shirasagi Miki, akaCure Egret White Worstgirl White Egret, aka mksm knpk.
Wait, which show am I watching again? >.>

I've been wanting to watch Maison Ikkoku for a while now, it's in my backlog, so nice to see it ends on a bright note for the protagonist. Though the mangaka is famous for her "will they wont they" protagonists to the point it's a massive tease throughout the whole freaking show (Ranma 1/2, Inuyasha). Both of those ended on a bright note (well Ranma was manga only) so I was hoping her earlier work did the same.
Sasameki Koto Episode 2:
Well, that was certainly a strange turn of events.
I am rather appreciating the sense of nuance that I don't see in a lot of anime romance, straight or gay, as I am genuinely not sure if the two mains will actually hook up since it seems dealing with unrequited love is an ongoing theme here.
Anyway, yea, still enjoying the proceedings thus far.
Well, that was certainly a strange turn of events.
Didn't see the model turning out to be Akemiya and what convoluted mess he has teetering on himself. Not to mention that he really has no chance with either Kazama or Murasame.
I also like that Murasame may just not be what Kamaza is seeking in a lover and there may be no fixing that. That being said, generic anime cuteness kind of betrays the situation because, yea Murasame is tall and sporty, she doesn't look all that plain or uncute.

I love the one he's holding the buckets outside of class and starts lifting them like weights. Only a Murican would use such a brain to come up with a great capitalistic idea like that.

You know it was so refreshing to see an anime that takes place not in Japan, or at the very least doesn't pretend Japan is the center of the world, that it might've added to my enjoyment of it. Black Lagoon did the same.
The charm of "there's a huge world war in the future, and Japan was pinpointed for fuck-all reason. Now we the Japanese have the strongest mecha because fuck you" is lost when everybody does it

I've read the first chapter. Not the greatest thing out there, but it had some charm.
They better show her room and her having a pet hampster. If she doesn't, Felix am cry.
Jezza has never look so hot. UNF indeed.
Clannad After Story 6
And that's how Misae became a crazy cat lady.
Nice arc. It was a little lame that they recycled the idea of the Fuko arc, but it worked out alright. It was compact, and I like Misae and Shima more than Fuko and company. Also, this probably won't suffer Fuko's fate: Having the impact of her ending completely murdered by making her reappear for a cheap joke.
The supernatural elements in this show are... weird. They're just there. Like, there's a ghost arc in both seasons and then nothing else supernatural ever happens.
