He put it politely. That's about as much as most people can hope for. I know a few people would have worded it in such a way that it would have destroyed her.

Yowamushi Pedal Grande Road Episode 18
That manami at the end was amazing. He looks so great at lots of different camera angles.
Imyzumi better not lose!

I haven't seen any other display of Gonzo's talent so it's technically true!
I watch it for the WWII stuff.
At least i choose to believe so.
It's really hard to describe. They drastically changed one crucial plot point and then tried to bend the manga material to it. The results are not pretty. It might still very well end the same way manga did though.

I get so much enjoyment out of seeing Onoda pedaling really hard.
Mama Toudou needs to be more stricter when lecturing his forgetful son Manami.
A 2009 production, so it has all those late 2000's tropes everyone loves. It's a Drama set in the mid 1980's.
The girls themselves are pretty entertaining and get their own arcs and episodes and setups and personalities, but I'm pretty sure it's actually a harem. Nobody really hesitates to manipulate each other but because of that I actually don't really know what's happening anymore. I think someone(s) is going to do something batshit insane by the end of the show. Someone here is gonna break and I don't know who it is just yet. All I know is that when that happens. It will be glorious.
Oh yeah. And that girl (Rina) and MC's girlfriend (Yuki) are idols. So there's the conflict.
Yeah, Rina is pretty much the best character on the show so far. This scene was so rewarding. I feel like I just got the payoff for something but I have no idea what it was for. Which means it's the setup for something (I stopped in the middle of the episode to type this).
These gifs aren't disgustingly big or something are they? I'm just using GifCam and default settings.

The adaption as a standalone is good/average but as a manga adaption its pretty shit. The anime pretty much strips a lot of things that makes the manga really fuckin good. The story in the manga is well written and you can see that the Author actually put thought into his series. It's just that Studio Pierrot didn't faithfully adapt the series, which is why it may seem like trash. So I advice you to read the manga first because it's really solid and then you can decide whether you want to watch the anime.

Yusei is the persons deck that I always try to build mine after. I always have scrap-iron scarcrows.

It's definitely well worth your time because the manga is a solid read.

There's Al-kun, he's a gnome and is about the gravity, the gravitational attraction.
The girls said Al-kun is older but I can't identify his age, I would say he's young, but how old is Al-kun?
First gondolas in high heels and now rooftops in high heels, this can't be safe.
Akari can't take a hint...or maybe she can.
Bad puns shouldn't be allowed!

Sailor Moon R 35-36
Time travel is a more complicated process in the Sailor Moon verse than I expected. First things have to be cleared with Pluto, then there's the extradimensional space between all of that, and then you can arrive at the scheduled point. Hell of a way to spread time travel out over one episode, but I'm glad that the storyline has started moving in such a way. Chibiusa is starting to show a bit more initiative as well. Her super slingshot can actually do a bit of damage if she puts some Moon Power into it. Now to see what Crystal ends up doing with Pluto.

He's around the same age as Akatsuki and Woody I think. The "older" comment may have been about his "old man jokes", as Aika says?
The story is bad across mediums but the main character is the manga's redeeming factor, and the anime makes even him a shit lol.
So yeah it's a bad adaptation with quite a bit of anime original material.

I was actually rewatching this via crunchyroll, and laughed at that part since they've since introduced a character and deck type whose whole gimmick is that the deck is only made up of monsters, and using any spell or trap cards would make the deck LESS viable (Super Heavy Samurai in arc v, which is used by Gogenzaka, one of the main characters)

Pretty good episode aside from Kureha being blind as a bat. The backstory for Ginko was good and at least that girl who led the burning of the garden got eaten by a bear

Because of the gnomes characteristics, he can be an old man, I just wouldn't say it because we saw old gnomes in the end of S1.

Too cute
It's one fucking day off man!
The red postboxes are dumb, as show by Akari attempt to get the letters.
Mailman is the man, but it's still just one fucking day off!
Bwahahaha. I don't know. This show cracks me up and I don't know why. I'm really just enjoying myself with this. Maybe it's a result of watching a drama with my brain off.
Anyway, slutty MC meets yet another of his "goddesses" which means god only knows what. Then the rest of the harem gets confused and jealous and misunderstanding-y. Then this happens and that happens. Really, I think this sums up the show in a nutshell. Don't ask me why.
Godspeed MC. I prophesize you'll meet death by harem stabbing or something equally hilarious.

This is a weird show, as it actually improves after the first three episodes and for a lot of shows it's the complete opposite. This is probably one of the only ones I could think of.
I kind of feel bad for Lulu, she seems like a third wheel here but maybe she can squeeze into a threesome end!
By the way I think this was the first episode with something after the ED so if you missed it go back and watch it.
This show is legit good now, if you dropped it after the first three episodes pick it back up and see if you like it.
Dat new ED is lewd af
Pretty bad, I'm surprised anyone remembered it existed by now.
What exactly made you interested anyway?

Well, I was browsing Amazon the other night, and since I'm going to an Anime convention(first time) I needed to look for Anime to check out(and price comparisons). I happen to see this and the cover looked interesting.
I don't know, man. At least getting season one of Space Dandy doesn't sound bad.

Space Dandy is good. First season is spotty, but the second season has some amazing episodes. I think the blu-ray is pretty cheap for that series too.

Inb4 Homura did nothing wrong.
But yes, screw Madoka Rebellion. Still waiting on that sequel to fix everything!

I want to like you Gaiking. I like the super robot spirit you have. Really, I do. But when I see stuff like this:
TOEI PLZ
Yeah.
And they apparently decided that one episode without the theme song playing during a climax was apparently too much, so guess what they did in this episode!

I legitimately hope a fourth movie never comes out so Homura can win forever

I was also interested in Ghost in the Shell: Arise. but it seemed too "short" for me.
So right now: I wanna get Space Dandy, High School DxD (I know) Tenchi Muyo Universe and OVA. Maybe whenever Outlaw Star gets the blu-ray treatment too.

I hope that if a fourth movie does come, it pulls a Code Geass R2
and has Madoka and Homura join forces and have it be them versus literally everybody else. Then the Homu Requiem happens.

isn't the whole series pretty fucking pricey and didn't even include soundtrack for that price? I can't recall. All I know is that I was disappointed.

Every country has their own island?! But Neo-Venezia is already Japan/Italy.
I wonder how Japan and Brazil ended with the same meaning for a sunshower, but here it could mean a widow's wedding too...hmm Brazil island...hmm
That's theft!
And here there's something the Mailman could do in a day off.
Loved the extra Alicia screen time. ~ara ara
As far as I know, it's in line with Funimation's regular prices. The limited edition is more expensive, but doesn't have a soundtrack, I think. It's not the whole series though, just the first season. Second season isn't up for preorder yet, as far as I know.
It's not really that expensive though, unless we are entering an age when even Funimation releases are considered too expensive. Are buyers waiting for the industry to crash again, to try and grab their favorite titles for a few dollars each?
