Courtesan of a Nation was so good. I swear Gintama's serious arcs keep one upping each other

I feel like all the arcs with Tsukuyo ends up being really good because of how good her chemistry with Gintoki is. I'm not one to get caught up in shipping but I like those two together lol.

There is no Gintama shipping because Gintoki and Tsukuyo being together is literally the only option

What the hell, how did this go unnoticed until now?

This video came up on youtube. I watched it to see if there was any anime there I didn't recognize.

It's really obvious when someone makes a top 50 anime openings of all time list like this that they've only been watching anime for 5-10 years at most.

All mobile. I can't access any social media or video /music streaming on the corporate network.
I'm surprised they haven't blocked GAF or even MAL yet.

If they start blocking it, we all know whose fault it is ;p

It'll be impressive if they can keep it up. Still won't watch it dubbed though, wasn't really on board with some of the casting myself.
I agree. So far she's mostly been used for boob jokes and creepy shota teasing alongside Shouta (I see what the writer did there), and most of the conversations she has been involved in so far could've worked just as well if she wasn't there, because as all she does is constantly remind us about how much Tohru has supposedly changed for good after she met Kobayashi and little else.
Then there's Riko, who I don't rally like either because of how her whole character is about falling head-over-heels for Kanna's moe appeal. I already feel like the show's pushing her moe-ness a lot already even when Riko's not involved, but add her in and it just gets ridiculous (cue recycled moe meltdown cut nearly every time such a scene happens).
Gotta hand it to the dragons for somehow being knowledgeable about how a Japanese boxed lunch is supposed to be made (?!), and also to Kobayashi for suggesting bacon and eggs as the main dish for some weird reason (that plus two cherry tomatoes sounds like the weakest and most unbalanced lunch ever).

Actually looks pretty good.
Movie is still probably gonna be bad tho.

Maid Dragon - 08
For a hot minute I thought I had a shokugeki in my maid dragon anime.

I lost it at that scene. Course she was going to do it too.
But yeah this show is still going strong. Is it 10 episodes this season like last year?
Shouta wasn't introduced until around chapter 27 or so of the manga, Kyoani introduced him earlier and put him and Luccoa into some stuff they weren't in originally (the beach episode, for example) and added more original scenes between the two.

Favorites
Inoue Joe - Closer - Naruto Shippuden...wow nice choice.
Man with a Mission - Raise Your Flag - Gundam IBO...excellent pick
SPYAIR - Imagination - Haikyuu!! perhaps best of the sports picks
Exist - Nano - Btooom!...people remember Btooom! probably not my top choice for nano.
X.U. - Sawano[nzk]:Gemie - Owari no Serafu...should be in the top 10 , not back in 37th!!!
Wimp - BACK-ON ft Lil Fang (from FAKY), GBF miss this op
My Dearest - Supercell - Guilty Crown - this is the best thing ever!!!!!!!!
Miiro from KanColle - Akino with Bless4...of all the songs from Akino with Bless4, you pick this one??? awful choice
a:z - Sawano[nzk]:mizuki - A/Z good choice, my list would be full of sawano:nzk] songs
unravel - TK from Ling Tosite Sigure - (Tokyo Ghoul) best song from TK
Ranbu no Melody - SID - Bleach
Silhouette - kana-boon - Naruto Shippuden...up there for best naruto shippuden OP (though cant forget 7!! song)
paper moon - Tommy Heavenly6 (Soul Eater) ... best classic song.
List was too heavy on the FMA love and Spyair (overrated). Or choosing Hard Knock Days for One Piece, really??? Gundam 00 op's were just random, I honestly didnt remember any of them.
List redeemed with number 1 though
As others have said, welcome to the best arc! My favorite one, at least. Kaiki's such a fun character to follow. I wish we got a whole series starring him, honestly; he's a much better protagonist than Araragi.
Lucoa is good because of her boobs

I don't think Kaiki would fit as a protagonist. He's like Kumagawa or Hisoka where if you add him to any scene it will become better immediately, but he fits the anti-hero and villain role so perfectly.
He's essentially the protagonist for that arc anyway.

Kaiki being the protag of Hitagi End is great because he's so distinct from everyone else. No one else mentions how the story told is from their perspective, and is thus not indicative of reality. No one else just straight says they're going to lie to the viewers. Additionally him being the narrator for the one arc is so impactful because he's such an enigmatic character, and so seeing behind the curtains once not only adds to his character by fleshing him out but by only doing it once his perspective, and motivations, in the rest of the series is still kept mysterious while providing some justification.
I guess on the whole having many different MCs is part of what makes the series so great, you get some enigmas explained like Hanekawa and Kaiki but some are left to steep in confusion like Gaen and Ougi. Which really highlights those characters for me.

This is the first time I actually went from a moderate chuckle, to an outright laugh out loud. The way he ripped the paper, the music, amazing.

Beyblade Episode 27
We kind of knew the outcome of the second match due to the previous episode. Sad that that meant Ray would have to end up taking the fall for everyone but well, Driger needs an upgrade
Kai did give Tyson great advice so that was nice.

Minor things I may have missed, but oh well, this had a pretty amazing ending, so it's all good. Oh and Daichi was a man at the end and that moment with
What a finish.... I couldn't stop watching these final episodes. I usually dislike last minute reveals, but this show did an excellent job of surprising me with the mysteries as everything started to come to light. There were a few holes that went unanswered mainly,
what happened to Sasuke? Attempted murder? What about the Megabaa company,did they get exposed?

Anyone here want any CR Guest Passes? I have a couple, but I never use them, and since this is an Anime thread, I was wondering if anyone would be interested in them.

DAI-GUARD Episode 26END
Office workers, saving the world.
This was a fantastic anime from start to finish. I wish it was popular and more known because it has such a charming cast that grew over time, and just well great development for both the office workers but also for some of the army folks. Shirota was easily the best there but also Saiki. Akagi and co were great too.
The Heterodymes were also very intriguing in design, favorite was the one that had expanded well under ground and also the final one. Will miss it.

Ha ha. Gantz is super gross. I remember when it was all the rage around when the anime came out, and I heard enough about its unpleasant qualities at that time to know it wasn't something I ever wanted to touch.

I never watched the anime, but I did read Gantz from beginning to end. It's pretty damn sexist and can be extremely sensationalist, yet has a very gripping quality. Both my Wife and I were hooked, despite its glaring flaws, and read it from beginning to end in like a month. It's got a intense quality that makes it easy to get caught in the flow and want to know what happens next. It at least has that going for it.
