insert innuendo here
Feels like he's wearing nothing at all, nothing at all.
As opposed to the tons of female sports team we don't get. They can pander all they want as long as i keep getting sports shows ill be happy.
Ill be salty if the Haikyuu girls team never gets a spin-off.

Underwear just holds them back from maximum movement and manservice.
I know, I was just stating my opinion for the genre, not that particular one. Still, I don't think I'm too thrilled at the prospect of fujoshi bait replacing power fantasy LN rubbish, because neither of them is any interesting in the first place.
...However, I could overlook all this if fujoshi pandering resulted in a non-chibi Kaiki figure being released.
It's not like they have genitals anyways.

penises are too icky
I hope you enjoy SS, since it's considered by many to be the best season in the series so far. So much meaningful character development.

I disagree wholeheartedly with this statement.

I don't know what FOTM means, but male sports anime aimed at female audiences has been a long-standing tradition going back to at least Prince of Tennis. That field can certainly produce some good works such as Haikyuu and Yowamushi Pedal.

You gotta at least appreciate their balls though.

Not like they ever really went away, just been getting a lot of good ones recently
All this talk just made me think what'd happen if anime actually went and used a male version of big-breast-related tropes, but I guess our lovely double-standard society would riot if guys called each other out on the size of their junk, we had guys who were really embarassed about it and especially if we'd have gainaxing apply to them as well.
But yeah, girls groping each other, the whole thing about drinking milk, self-concious big or small-breasted girls and seeing them flail about all the time is all a-ok.

Hajime no Ippo, everyone makes fun of Ippo for having an elephant dick.

Dicks don't even exist in anime 99% of the time.
Haha, that's interesting. Still, I meant that as a more overt and industry-wide trend, which sure as hell isn't going to happen because double standards are a very real thing in society at large.
...I'm kind of sympathizing with fujoshis after all this, since it's always like it's okay to indulge in breast-related things, teasing shipping a guy with his little sister and other overly sexist stuff that deprecate women like that, but we never get the flip side of the coin since society considers that even more repulsive.

So I guess this was the fan service episode. Also, I thought the deities couldn't use their powers, but I guess they all just choose not to do so?

That was a really fun episode. Loved the fight against the Titan. Bell even had a limit break. The incantations were pretty cool too. I wish magic had played a bigger role in this show.
Honestly, my only disappointment with this series is the incredibly sparse plot/story. There just wasn't much here, to be honest. If there is a second season, and I really hope there is, I hope things are really expanded upon. There's a lot of potential here. The characters are great, the action was pretty good, and the lore is interesting.

Also, I just knew Bell couldn't have been a normal human. Wasn't expecting Zeus to be his grandfather, though.

You have a monogatari avatar and you're conplaining about pandering?
It's Sentai.

Maiden Japan, which I believe is a label associated with Sentai.
did you add the sixth one specifically so someone would call it out or what
As if you can't like something you have some issues with? What an odd thing to imply.

I don't know what Dennou Coil is, but it certainly isn't Hyouka.
This is like one of those corrupted wishes
It's Serial Experiments Lain meets Studio Ghilbi. And it has children with beards nuking the shit out of each other and a ugly as shit hacker grandma.

Any opinions of Miss Hokusai film?
I just spammed it and clicked post there's no ulterior motive here!
Dennou Coil is near future sci-fi where Google Glass has become ubiquitous (at least in the setting of the anime) and isn't embarrassing technophile junk.
I'll believe you this time.

Would you prefer it to be licensed by Funimation? With NISA seemingly no longer very interested in anime, there aren't many choices for quality anime publishers in the US.
It's good.

Russ T has already explained it, but I guess I'll chip in anyway.
Monogatari has some great character development, which is the reason I like the show in the first place. I'm one of many who constantly warn others of Nisemonogatari and its rampant fanservice, and the reason for that is what we are aware that it isn't one of the series' aspects that deserves any praise and can upset watchers.
However, seeing the cast bond with each other and grow in overly stylized and exaggerated but still relatable ways is what sucked me into Monogatari as a series, and what got me to stick with it in the first place. Does it have unfortunate fanservice that doesn't do much for the plot? Yes. But the show doesn't hinge on that and has many interesting things in it that make the series worth it.
Man, I sure took one hell of a nap when I did, haha

Hopefully if you can understand that anime aimed at male otaku can have worthwhile aspects to them, you can also understand that anime aimed at female otaku can have worthwhile aspects to them.
