Gate S2/END
Nice ending. I wonder if we will see more of this show in the future since I've heard the books are ongoing. In the end, there was no ship, but at least Itami had his harem intact and we got to see

Spoiler

the ex wife

once last tine, lol. It's a shame Tyruule or the prick prince didn't end up decapitated during the raid. I must say, I actually found the ground explosives that blew up that entire platoon of guards that were chasing the crew really funny. It looked like something outta an 80's Tom and Jerry cartoon, lol. This is another show I'm really gonna miss watching each week, but we have sooo much coming this spring, so it's all good.

Shingeki no Bahamut Virgin Soul

Cautiously optimistic even if the first season went off the rails. Just gimme something consistent throughout.

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

more pirates of the Caribbean less generic JRPG for Bahamut s2 plz

 

[Dedication Through Light]

Oh nice its getting two animes.

So is Rakugo still considered to be really good?

I dunno, maybe I haven't read enough impressions, but I got the impression that it's kinda shit the bed recently. I wanna know if it has before I jump in and binge.

Dunno where you read that. People were talking about ONE scene.

Futurecard Buddyfight:100 (Hundred) Episode 50 [END]

Well it ended just like every single other Bushiroad card anime, though at least this time the big baddie did go through

Spoiler

a nearly ran out of cards of deck type of event which was a bit more fantastic than just having some ultimate skill broken through. I kind of liked that about Hyakuren Yamigedo, even as its heads kept being destroyed and regenerated by future force gao

I got my wish for Ikazuchi (Bolt) at least, partially.
Overall good ending and it goes right into Buddyfight Triple D. Cant wait.

This last episode could've been ERASED levels of bed-shitting (it wasn't) and Rakugo would still be the best thing airing by miles.

 

[TrueBlue]

Ah, I see. Truth be told most of what I read was mostly off the cuff while I was lurking earlier today, so maybe I got the wrong impression. Good news! It'll be nice to see what the fuss is all about.

 

[freshVeggie]

Yes, yes you did. I'm so sorry. Had I seen the post I would have warned you.

To make up for this, I ought to recommend you something better. What sort of anime do you want to watch?

Romance, comedy, action something with story and character progression.
I loved GTO, School Rumble. Don't watch moe. Friend is constantly bugging me to watch JoJo.

Shouwa Genroku Rakugu Shinjuu is one of the best anime in a long time.

Dunno your tastes, but you might also check out the short Ochiete! Galko-chan. If you like the first episode somewhat, it just gets better along the way.

Bookmarked.

Don't forget the ones I gave you! You already watched Clannad, right? Ef-A Tale of Memories?

Clannad I watched, Ef-A bookmarked.

If you have some other shows you really liked or genres you prefer, feel free to mention them as well, we'll probably have some recommendations : P

I got so much recommended, I'll likely ask in a couple months again, haha.

 

[Guess Who]

I see a few people were perplexed by the ending of Rakugo Shinjuu 12. I read a manga spoiler that, while I can't verify it myself, would explain why it felt odd to people.

Spoiler

Apparently the version of Sukeroku and Miyokichi's death that was shown to us was not the truth, but a falsified version presented by Kiku. (Remember that the conceit here, as set up by the end of the first episode, is that the elderly Kiku/Yakumo is narrating this whole tale of his past to Yotaro and Konatsu.) This would make sense, since this version of events presents Kiku and Sukeroku in a good light, but their actions feel a bit out of character. This seems like the kind of rakugo-inspired story (we heard a rakugo story very similar to this earlier in the season) that Kiku would come up with if he wanted to hide a darker truth from Konatsu.

I thought it was very noticeable that there is a

Spoiler

giant cut between Miyokichi falling and Kiku holding both Sukeroku and Miyokichi, and it doesn't make any sense how the situation ended up with Kiku holding the two of them. I'm guessing that's where the "cover-up" happens, so to speak,

assuming your spoiler is true.

 

[Moaradin]

Kekkai Sensen OVA PV. Just after realizing Kiku's VA from Rakugo was in this.

Had no idea this was getting an OVA. Hopefully they announce a S2 soon.

Servamp long pv

I must have missed or overlooked OLDCODEX doing music for it, hype increased 100 fold.

 

[TrueBlue]

What's the general consensus on Gaiko-chan then? It looks like a comedy at first glance, or am I wrong?


...I need to get out of this habit of waiting until the end of a season to ask about shows.

Majestic Prince is getting a movie

Disappointed its not an S2, but I can still enjoy this.

It's not a bad thing if you prefer to binge watch but want to know what you're getting into.

 

[Haly]

Straight up comedy. Best show after Showa Genroku Rakugo this season.

 

[Basileus777]

It's been a while since I watched the show, but I recall there being plenty of room for a sequel film.

Apparently, a Drifters anime has been announced for 2016.

[freshVeggie]

Watched the first episode of SNAFU. Love it.
Washed away all the bad that was left from Glasslip.

 

[Shard]

Read about this in an article at work and holy shit... the emotions that welled up inside me. I'm one of the few who's been dying to get more episodes. I've always wanted more, even though they ended it on a solid note I just wanted to spend more time with the characters. 13 years later my wish has come true. Give me a timeskip with more Pillows and I'll be fucking set for life.

One of the few, and I mean few, shows that I ship a hetero couple.

Naota x Haruko let's fucking goooooo!

Ironically it looks like Fooly Yuri from the information released thus far.

You honestly haven't seen anything with SNAFU yet. It gets very philosophical and deep. The interactions are amazing as you get to S2 as well.



Dagashi ep.11
Suckling on something to pass time and in the middle of public, huh?

 

[Sölf]

Yeah, this is from September.

Seeing that video now, I remember actually seeing that before. But I completely forgot about it. xD

Whats different it is now confirmed to be a TV anime.

It's getting a brand new original movie (not recap), as well as a new episode 25.

 

[Narag]

oh my goodness.

Have you ever read about the tale of the monkey's paw?

 

[OniBarubary]

Trinity 7 ep.1-3
This is trash, but..... Arata is such a breath of fresh air when it comes to harem MC's, lol. Literally just says what is on his mind and doesn't give a shit, lol. The comedy is good enough so far to keep this one interesting and an interesting Demon Lord/Magic school harem generic crossover series that should be fun.

Full disclosure...

...this anime is my guilty pleasure. It's such trash but it's unabashed trash. It doesn't pretend it's anything more than what it is so it fully commits and that's what separates it from a lot of stuff out there; it's pandering fanservice trying to be more than what it is. This show owns it's silliness and tits and irreverence and as a result it was super entertaining to watch.

I dunno, I just watched it and was like "Holy shit, this is ridiculous" but never ever in a way that made me want to turn it off. It entertained me a lot.

I would strongly caution against getting excited for a work from the director of Infinite Stratos S2.

Well I'm onboard now.

 

[zulux21]

so funimation tweeted this a bit ago

maybe we will get a super announcement.

likely just a db kai part 2 announcement though

 

[firehawk12]

So is Rakugo still considered to be really good?

I dunno, maybe I haven't read enough impressions, but I got the impression that it's kinda shit the bed recently. I wanna know if it has before I jump in and binge.

I'm hoping the show jumps back to the present at some point. That's when I'll turn in again.

There we go! We did it guys!

 

[Squishy3]

You'd be waiting for it to get a season 2 then, since it ends next week. It's still easily the most memorable long-form anime proper I've watched this season that isn't continuing from last season.

 

[nintendoman58]

Have you ever read about the tale of the monkey's paw?

Right now, I'm just happy about the 2D Mecha. It's a 2D Mecha show in 2016 that's not being made by BONES or Sunrise.

Just that fact alone gives me hope.
