Platinum good.
No really though, it has an excellent staff that sounds like it could put together a good mystery/thriller/drama. The PV didn't show much, but that's probably by design. That newest art released kinda hints at looming darkness as well.

This episode was great. This blonde dude is a trip, just where does his loyalty lie?! And it's pretty sad how many characters we love have died up to this point, I sure hope they manage to finish things off and achieve their goal so their sacrifices weren't in vain. Glad this is getting more episodes, I really enjoyed the show. 1 more to go, many more to come in the future, sounds good to me.

If the impressions I read are anything to go by, Fafner seems close.

First 3 episodes of Not Attack on Titan were apparently screened in theaters in Japan.

Doesn't sound promising. Not that it ever could live up to the original tsktsk!

- It's a bit erotic/lewd!
- It's fun to see Mumei kills everything
- I'm sad because I have to wait until the end of April to keep watching.
- Sawano's work is far beyond his average!
- A lot of talking
- All the female characters look good!
- It was scary
- I wonder how many people died to animate this
- OP and ED don't fit the show
- Mixed audience (male and female of all age, not just otaku or fujoshi)
- That samurai with a sword is "nippon banzai" at its strongest
- You need to watch it in theater!
- Why does this TV anime looks so god when a movie like Digimon Tri looks so bad?
- Anonymous-chan is super cute!
- Attack on Kotetsujou : Kabaneri of the rebellion : Sengoku Basara edition
- The tension is high thanks to the music
- Beautiful ending
- How are they going to maintain this quality until the end?
- The story didn't start so far
- Music doesn't disappoint
- A lot of blood and violence, a bit grotesque
- "Japanese-made steam punk proximity fighting ®!"
- Script is way better than Valvrave (so far).
- I had flashbacks from Guily Crown

As soon as I saw 1 my eyes rolled. Welp.

That ending though. Guess there's no hope for Julian to reunite with his wife now is there.

It's more just fuck Toei in general. Look at the latest episode of One Piece. They turned what was a complete blowout in the manga into a struggle.

Wow sign me up, I was hoping we'd get definitive Sawano and something that feels like Guilty Crown. I had this on a will watch with reservations list but now its a must watch.
Crying hard for Digimon in that one comparison, and is this really 12 episodes if even at ep3 *the story didnt start yet*.
I was gonna explain it but MPR beat me to it! Damn you MPR.
On a surface level it seems about right! I'll toss it his way, even though I have no idea whether or not it's any good, haha.
If nothing else, Kabaneris soundtrack is going to be awesome.
It has, what? Opening song by Egoist, ending song by Aimer + Egoist + Sawano and general OST by Sawano. My ears can't wait.
And on that topic.
Haikyuu!! - 22-25 (END)
Finally got around to finish it.
That Hayashi soundtrack. Can't wait for My Hero Academia and Kiznaiver.
The match against Aoba Johsai was intense. Lots of growth and the aftermath was great. Perfect ending spot.
On to season 2!

Under the sea. I guess mermaids are kind of a secret if no one knows about them. I'm starting to think those taking supplementary lessons are the lucky ones. Did no one think to ask the clams please? Mofurun knows how to put on a show. Ruby transformation was better, but Saphire is still good. Plus it has cooler speed/flight skills. And damn, a wave motion torrent from space. These two don't screw around. Too bad Jun didn't see what was going on. Hopefully it happens before the end.

This show has been getting better for me each and every week. Some really cool actions scenes took place this time. Mary finally fulfilled her wish. Now to see if Ranta makes it next week. As much of a little shit as he is, I hope he does.

Damn. I havent seen Mabuchi this pissed. Beast of Grendel is right. And awww at how Kyoma is starting to be nicer to Mira. Great action this episode, from start to finish.
Either way, Lwai is one of my favorite designs in this show.

I wonder just how much of Lwai is human? He cant have two brains right?
Seems like we have a hit for the Western Anime Fanbase on hand. Can't wait to see it on Toonami in 2017!
Sounds like antihype for me. ^_^

Totoko is as bad trash as the sixtuplets LOL. But wow at the second half, I was not expecting that. All of the brothers seem to have moved on with their lives except for Osomatsu.

OK, we're getting there. Good tension in everything surrounding Kurapika. Using Gon and company as comic relief was unnecessary, but whatever.

Hahaha it certainly does have that formula to it.
I did a rewatch of Hikaru no Go because my brother started watching it so I watched it along with him. Also I never did finish the last seven episodes. Show is still so good. And it's even better now that I know a lot more about go now. Although I wonder why in my first watch I never noticed how bratty and unlikeable the protagonist was. I am going to chalk it up to me being a grown up now.
We'll probably be saved that fate due to Amazon having it.

She and Her Cat -Everything Flows- 3
Can we at least get a bittersweet ending, please? I don't know if I can take a total downer!
He is so dead.

It's even more depressing when considering her life situation along with the cat dying.

Yes, Anita really raises the stakes for Killua's character and makes his past present. This moment was a good use of visuals to depict Killua's interior battle.
Exactly. The cat dying I can take, but if we don't get some kind of hopeful outlook for the girl I'm going to be upset.

Man Siri couldnt even find Crunchyroll when I was asking for it. Siri is only good for jokes.
For sure there will be some kind of hopeful outlook. The girl could solve her problems by moving back in with her mom until she gets things together. She was too much pride imo.

A new anime event for aussies in Melbourne. Guess this will be the place for Animelab and other announcements.

IF the show ends up good, I have no qualms with it being on Toonami. Attack on Titan was a bad show but that was because of the execution/writing and production. The premise is fine and could be done well. Is the Attack on Titan anime staff with free reign on the writing/pacing the people to do that? I have no clue - but I'll wait till I see something before I start shitting on the show.
It probably is going to be bad though

Next week should be interesting. Where are things going to go from here. Also yeah, I wouldn't mind a third season of this show.

You'd think how front and centre it is on the ATV that they work on getting it to actually work.

Awesome info dump episode. Resolved a lot of the plot threads. Damn, I feel so bad for Loser :/
That scene in the beginning with Cassidy flying around looked like a Donkey Kong rocket barrel sequence. Hilarious stuff.
Hyped for the next episode. This show has been excellent thus far.

Theres no hope for his wife coming back is there. I just hope Julian at least gets a happy ending, somehow.

So "Unhappy♪" is apparently gonna be called "Anne Happy" stateside. Because its totally necessary to localize an English word... There isn't even a character named Anne on the show...
I can't tell what's more dumb, this or "When Supernatural Battles Became Commonplace".
Edit: just for extra dumb, the manga's english name is apparently "Unhappy Go Lucky!". I'm... i'm just...

Dimension W isn't the best animated show.
Hell there are times when it's almost a powerpoint presentation.
But I really like the art of the show.

Honestly, that sounds fine. That said, Wit will almost certainly fuck it up.
That comment about the OP and ED is kinda interesting as Araki tends to have his theme songs be out there but we've heard both the Egoist/Aimer songs and they sound fine so I wonder if the visuals are trippy.
hosannainexcelsis

Yes there is. The main character is named Anne. The Japanese title is supposed to be a pun on "unhappy" and her name. The official Twitter account for the anime is @annehappy_anime.

Hard to imagine that Kabaneri will have any lines as memorable as "Just call me Moses."
Welp, MAL lied to me again.
It told me that it was "An" being short for "Hanako" or something... No picture there so I couldn't tell which character it was.
I still think the name alteration is dumb.
Edit: my point on Trigger's LN anime still stands, though.

Otome x Amnesia ep.7-9
How did he really fall in love with the ghost that literally
This is like a reverse abuse relationship because there is no way things are gonna work out for our boy. I must say, at times the artwork of the scenery can really be stunning, albeit too dark at time, but I'm guessing they do that to match the darker tone show has. Also, in regards to the story.
How did he really fall in love with the ghost that literally
threw his ass down a set of stairs
good Yuuko is already showing signs of being tainted by her bad emotions, wouldn't it make sense to just merge both emotions/ghosts into one, or would that lead to her disappearing as a ghost and moving on?

It's not a name change; it's the Japanese title directly transliterated into English! You can see this English title on the Japanese website for the anime! And what did you want Trigger's show to be called, "Inou-Battle in the Usually Daze", as the official website has it? There are cases of poorly localized anime titles, but these aren't.

Yeah they get lazy with some of the fight scenes. Like the backgrounds are just some stylized checkerboard wallpapers at times. Its weird.
But I love its art style and character designs. The storyline is a nice departure from the shows I regularly watch.
I really hate the remote too. I thought it was super cool during the presentation but that novelty wore of quickly. It could have used a lot more buttons so the user experience wouldnt be so confusing. Picking it up is also an issue sometimes since its so small and thin.
I still use my Xbox One for most of my streaming. Will probably use the ATV more when Game of Thrones start again.

Good overall episode with a lot of growth of all the characters. Can't wait for the conclusion next episode, though I hope they don't make the whole thing one huge punchline that restores the status quo. It'd be a waste to throw this development out of the window.

I'm fine with it for the most part. My only issue tends to be holding it upside down in the dark. Maybe having it backlit would help.
