I really wish that everyone that isn't Inaho or Slaine was competent in combat. Starting to make the battles boring, but I guess that's not why people watch this. Hime combing back at the end is going to really mess up Lemeria's plans since if Hime doesn't agree with the marriage, Slaine will probably call it off.
 
Assassination Classroom 5
A weaker episode that some basic characterization for that girl and showed that the school is fairly terrible but, the students can surpass the bullying. Some funny moments but it's certainly not an apex of the show

I like this episode. For once we don't need to speculate who's going to void or reincarnation, no serious business. Its all good.
Though i suspect this episode happen because the next episode going to be zetsubou-shita
 
No, not really.

Ah, good.

The other entrants on the latest list were Sailor Moon, Hunter X Hunter, Attack on Titan II and Akame Ga Kill is Sentai ever got on the block.

Attack on Titan II doesn't even EXIST yet. Like, isn't that not coming out until 2016 or something? That one shouldn't even count!

Madoka Magica is a superhot property and is probably crazy expensive to license.

Man, that stinks. Like, seeing ToonamiGAF's reactions to Madoka would be amazing.

Oh so that's where the lewd is.

I've always wanted to try eel, never really had a chance to.
There's no way after the ridiculous amounts of binge eating they've done in the first five episodes that THIS amount of food is what makes Ryou sick. I call shenanigans!
 
Assassination Classroom Episode 5: Assembly Time
tumblr_njqt4qZkrH1u5diq7o2_400.gif


Was looking forward to many moments of this episode because I just read them and they would have been funny to see. Priceless time in the assembly hall. Class E teachers are amazing together.
 
Well, it's not like Attack on Titan Season 2 never happening is even possible.

Well, if the author pulled something like Shimabukuro did sometime in the next year I can imagine everyone wanting to back away, but short of that, I can't really see any possibility of it not happening.

Mushi-Shi OVA
Really good, and double length too! Really liked the references during the eclipse to all the people Ginko has helped, and seeing the doctor and scribe again was nice.

Obviously Mushi-shi is a very episodic show, but I appreciate the fact that, on occasion, we see little hints of continuity. Makes the world feel a bit more real.
 
Lord of Lords: Ryu Knight - 1

So this is a 90s mecha anime with a big fantasy setting.

Mecha design is a bit strange, but considering other mecha designs nowadays, it could have been much worse.
 
Gourmet Girl Graffiti 6

There was bathing and hugging, and Ice cream in bathtubs. Which Is what I'm about to do right now with a banana flavored popsicle.

WHAT IS THIS?!?!?

WHAT IS THIS!?!?!?!!!!!!

NOTHING MAKES SENSE!!!!
Hello friend.

Bail out after episode 5(?). Sooner if you can.

I don't remember how far I got, but I remember this: There was one genuine cool moment, I think it was episode 5. It involved the main dude wrecking shit. Everything before and after, especially after, was horribad. I gave up. Don't remember how far I got. Too far.

come in my shame circle
lol my thoughts exactly, Kave.

It's me, TheBatman! :D

You're so different now. :eek:

I haven't been this upset watching something since Strike Witches. I know I'll bail on this series, I'm curious how far I'll go.

Everything is so bad, right down to the weird techno music.

Watch Onii-chan no Koto Nanka Zenzen Suki Janain Dakara ne!! if you want to experience true pain Kave. Never have I've seen a anime that there is nothing redeemable about it. Horrible story, bad sound/music/voices, horrid art style, terrible character designs, pathetic characters and some of the most mindbogglingly bad ideas put into a single show/manga.

I asked a friend to recommend me "a harem anime where it isn't obvious which girl wins, and where there is a winner". First episode checked all the usual marks of the genre, but this is what I asked for, so I'll power on through.

VOTOMS 17-20

all these endless jigokus and yet none of them are as horrifying as the recap episode that was 20. fortunately i just skimmed to all of chirico's internal commentary and the glorious preview at the end of it.
 
Eiken Club

A failing romance and a sudden rival. A competition to reclaim lost love. This is the perfect romantic comedy to end Valentines Day 2015.

Stardust Crusaders 30

Funniest episode in a long, long while. Enjoyed Avdol getting knocked out of his cool guy comfort zone and the usual dose of Joseph's trademark maxims.

Deadman Wonderland 07-08
Welp. If they're not pulling my leg with that twist then Shiro just ascended to
super Yandere
level.

As stupid as this show is, the plot at least progresses at a nice pace with new bits of information being continuously fed to the viewer. After turgid first two episodes this turned into a watchable trainwreck


Strike Witches 08

Something very wrong seems to be happening to me as this was a somewhat decent episode. Even action seemed a notch above the usual offering.

The sooner you accept Strike Witches is actually good the sooner you can be happy!
For what it's worth the last 2 episodes especially have some pretty good action.
S2 on the other hand looks better overall but loses the peeks S1 has in terms of animation.
But at the same time it also has better comedy and is a much better show overall!

This show is my antidrug

Salia deserves to get blown the fuck out by Ange all the time.
When Ange just blew a hole in Embyro's head it was obvious he would just come back but goddamn I love her for not taking any shit
Embryo literally just made himself a harem. Using mind control, nonetheless.
I almost wanted Embyro to NTR Tusk because fuck Tusk

That scene in the middle with Ange's sister just whipping the bondahged-up dragon girl was just straight BDSM porn. My mouth was wide open for like 30 seconds since it had been so long since we got a Cross Ange scene of that caliber. Add on top of that all the nudity (conveniently censored or blocked by light of course) lingerie and panty shots and you got a real solid Cross Ange episode right there!

This is the most Cross Ange Cross Ange episode in a long time. Probably tops the first episode in some ways even. I am thoroughly entertained. I need people's reactions to this.
10/10 best anime. I actually feel bad for those people with useless things like "morals" or "principles" because they miss out on this masterpiece. You owe it to yourself to watch this. It is good for your soul.
I'm not even jokin'.

Some hits and some misses, but overall a pretty enjoyable anime. The cultural festival arc in particular was entertaining. Final episode was rather tame though, and not much came of it. I don't suspect a second season, but if there were one, I'd be game for it.

The culture festival is the most acceptable part of the show. People are very much in agreement with that being the best arc even if they arent fans of the series. Had it been more like that it would have been worthy of the production values.

Cross ange Ep 19

My mind is so full of fuck! That pre-OP scene stuffed with bad animation, stormtrooper marksmanship and sheer nonsense. :(

Eveyrone worships Embryo-Samas dick because he tells everyone what they want to hear. Little sister has her own dragon-gimp slave/whipping post. And Embryo has the powers that rightfully belong only to Barry White.

Embyo being a timelord or something was quite visible back in ep 13, but here it is expanded on a bit more. Still doesn't expain who or what he really is, beside a mind-control rapist.

Yeah.. 'till next week I guess. Agree with MetroidPrimeRib up above, this is definitely the most Cross Ange episode since the start.

I'll kill you until you die is a magnificent line.

Truly, and it actually works 100% for the context. Accurate too. Hotshots 2 lives on in Ange

But maybe the road towards S2E10 won't be as horrid as I imagined it to be !

I have a real soft spot for this. Not sure why exactly..doesn't do anything unusual, just nice.

[Spoilers For this Week's Cross Ange Within]

[Cross Ange] - 19


So, as other's have already said, it's going to be pretty hard to top this week's episode. It really had the whole kitchen sink tossed in there to create that mix of insanity that I can't help but enjoy. Sure, many parts of this episode didn't really make much sense based on what we've seen before but whatever.


Neither can I, Ange, especially when it's been demonstrated numerous times (even later on this episode!) that Ange is way stronger than Salia! She can't even hold herself from dropping some hot burns later on:


I feel like this scene speaks for itself:


Wheelchair bound little girls whipping women must be someone's fetish, or at least Sunrise seem to think so:



Salako spent like a whole episode explaining this to you Ange!


Mhhhm.


Sure is Cross Ange all right.
