I need to get back to watching this. I got side tracked after the drama in EP.9 and haven't gone back yet.

The Akame ga Kill manga is better. The pacing isn't as rushed so you spend more time with a lot of the characters and the deaths are more impactful. However, the truth of the show "When two teigu users meet one of them dies" is pretty much how you have to look at it. If you see two people fighting, rarely if ever, does anyone not die. Once you've accepted that as the consequences of the world I find it's easier to get into.
I'm not gonna pretend the writing was stellar and as a result all the deaths made me feel shit but I will say I liked it a hell of a lot more than most shows/manga that throw around "DEATH CAN HAPPEN AT ANY TIME OOGIE BOOGIE LOOK HOW REAL THIS IS" crap writing like Walking Dead or Terraformars who cannot for the life of them pull off that idea effectively. The show pretty much lets you know from the start "Yo, every time you see a fight someone will die."
It's enjoyable for what it is, that is overwhelmingly crushing despair. I didn't find it really all to edgy or tryhard just because they let you know what the world is like pretty early.

I'm really glad they carried over from last episode, even for a really short joke. Anyways, skit based episode but it was actually pretty good. sasuga osomatsu 2nd half
Don't ever watch Mamoru Oishii stuff then.
True but your example is bad

As I expected I finished up HxH today.
Must be the best shonen I've watched with only FMA:B even close, also one of my relatively few 10/10s for me.
Now it's time to wait and see if the manga goes off hiatus and we get a new anime adaption in a few years (10+years or never would be my guess
)

Don't count on it.
Now watch Gintama.
Yeah my "obsession" over HxH kind off postponed my gintama plans but I should be fine to continue now.
Also all the seasonal anime that I haven't watched for 2 weeks, well everything but erased because I still think it's a great show and it took priority.

Seed trick was a convenient, but kinda neat maneuver. Nice to see the use of the birds that was introduced in the past, and not simply forgotten.
I'm assuming the chief / someone else in the mountain village is
Good to see Kiki getting some screen time, her moment with Zen and the comrade was funny. With that ending I'm expecting to see more of Kiki as well, and Raj on the ocean will be a sight to see.
Pirate lady really needs a captains hat!

related to Shirayuki and that's the reason for the 'kidnapping'. Pretty boy also said something (I can't remember what tho!) last episode that hinted that way.
I recall her saying she was born in the mountains, and since these goons are fighting pirates, bandits and whatnot, she was probably sent to her grandparents for safety reasons.

Kasane's plan seems to be going off without a hitch.
I need more DRRR. Next episode.

Shinra's now possessed by her Saika and now Celty isn't thinking rationally anymore. I also think we are beginning to see the first signs of Shizaya being canonically sunk for Shiona. DTL am cry.

I've decided that I'll set my hopes at a low level so that if we do get any more it will be a pleasant surprise.
The number of people complaining about this makes me think you guys just deserve the worst brand of CG garbage on every show.
Nakamura is a road to ruin. I don't feel like her storyline ever really turns to a realization that the sin indulged in is acceptable.

I see Mikado's insane side has progressed quite far since the start of X2. Most of episode focused of Mikado, Masomi and Anri which is possibly the set up for the least interesting episode this cour. Still decent overall.

Nothing I'm really interested in buying. Not a whole lot of releases for the month, I guess Funimation's counting on that Black Butler and Assassination Classroom money.

I found next to nothing in this episode to be funny, and throughout I was pretty uninterested. The change in setting for the first half was something I enjoyed though.
Sad to be coming from one of my favorite episodes (previous one), to one of my least of this show.

It's more the sudden change in comparison to the rest of the animation in the film (so you have to watch it in conjunction with everything else rather than just a standalone clip). Also it's such a quiet scene that the really fluid animation is almost at odds with the action. You would have thought rotoscoping would have been saved for a scene involving dancing or something.
And by the reactions to said clip it's clear that this is the first time many have seen it, indicating many haven't seen the film. This is appalling and I expect you all to fix the error of your ways by the end of this week.
Not sure if this is exactly the right place to ask, but I didn't see another general anime topic, so here goes:
I'm very much behind on my anime watching, and I'm trying to catch up by season. I think I'm mostly done with Summer 2015, but I want to make sure I didn't miss something really good.
So far, I've more or less enjoyed watching:
* Symphogear GX
* GATE
* Overlord
* Charlotte
* Rokka
* School Live
* Fate/kaleid
I watched, but can't say I enjoyed Chaos Dragon, and I didn't bother watching more than a few episodes of Monster Musume, Himouto, and Sky Wizards Academy. Someday, I'll probably get around to watching Working season 3.
Anymore anime from that season worth watching?

Maybe Soma and The Boring World where the concept of dirty jokes doesn't exist? (or somewhat similar title)

What I think worth checking out from Summer 2015 TV anime:
Ushio and Tora
Working!!! (watch the previous season first)
Sore ga Seiyuu
MikeHattsu
Member
Hm... There's something about it that makes the characters seem umm... lanky or something when they walk. The closeups are OK though.
Soma as in Shougeki no Soma?
I'll pass on "The Boring World", the synopsis seems outside my area of interest (much like Prison School).
I got another recommendation for Ushio and Tora, so I'll give that a try. Working!!! is on my list already. Sore ga Seiyuu would have to be exceptionally good to get past my general dislike of 4koma-based 4CuteGirls SoL genre.

But it's 3 girls, not 4 ;p
It's good if you're interested in learning more about the voice acting part of the anime industry.
hosannainexcelsis

Sore ga Seiyuu is not based on a 4-koma, and it's a really well done portrait of the struggles of people attempting to make it in the seiyuu/voice acting industry. But if you're allergic to cute girls, that's too bad.
I'm not even sure why I'm bothering to defend myself, but given the list of anime I more or less enjoyed, I obviously don't have a problem with cute girls. I'm just not interested in SoL cute girl antics.
MikeHattsu
Member
Eh? Isn't it? What's the style of the four panel comic it's based on called then?
But it's not cute girl antics. It's about the voice actor industry written by a voice actress and with guest appearances with voice actors as themselves.

Oh, if it is a 4-koma, my mistake. I was sure I had read somewhere that it was a full chapter manga, but I guess I was misremembering. My apologies.

Decided to continue to watch Monogatari: Second Season and I'm right in the middle of snail girl's arc and I have to stop here. I really am put off by the lolicon tendencies Araragi has, like jesus christ. Everything about this show is great but that.
Seiyu's Life! (それが声優! Sore ga Seiyū!, lit. That is a Voice Actor!?) is a comedy 4-panel dōjin manga series.
Doujins?!
Well, ok. I'll give it a try.

Not that kind of doujins ;p
If you know Japanese you can read it on the official blog here:

It is. Each book only contains 20-30 pages.
Impressive that a doujin manage to get anime adaptation (not the first one to get an anime adaptation, but still impressive)
most doujins arent porn bro
