No, it's 39 episodes. And the animation wasn't higher quality because of budget; rather because it featured a particularly good episode director and animation director.

I liked Hunter x Hunter so much I actually bought the first set bluray. I think the last time I physically bought anime was Pokemon VHSs when I was a kid.
The art cards that came with it are pretty cute.
I may watch an episode tonight. Haven't seen how the English dub is so I'll probably watch that version.

The english dub is really great! They nailed the main cast. Mainly Gon, Killua and Hisoka.
Have fun rewatching.

Tiger Mask W Episode 24
This episode was apparently made in 40 days.
Straight up magic people.
The only explanation.
I have a feeling

Tiger the Dark is gonna suffer bad next episode since it looks like The Third was Yellow Devil.

What happened to Tiger Mask A through V?
Despite not being particularly enthused by the Hikari arc, she continued right through the whole 12 episodes to show off her greatness.
It probably was a little unfair for me to hold it up to Amagami, but for the most part it was pretty bland. Not quite sure what happened...I guess not having the same writers or having a solid base to work from.

Maybe I am remembering all of Amagami's arcs with rose tinted glasses, but it was much better than what we got here. Even Photo Kano had much more entertaining characters and writing than this show did.
I agree. Overall I liked PhotoKano more, and given that had one terrible element that kept trying to intrude and arcs that were too short imo I guess that says something.
I did really like Hikari though...but that's probably her being like Haruka from Amagami, and Haruka always was my favourite.

Yup Photo Kano was a poor man's Amagami. So I too stress, for us to say even that is better than Seiren, it should tell you everything you want to know. Check the other two shows if you haven't, if you want more MAYBE then come to Seiren. Otherwise, you are better off wasting your time on something else.

Heartcatch Precure 10
The stakes have been raised. I know Blossom is the weakest Precure in history but I didn't think they would face such utter defeat so soon.

Seiren ep.12
Ok, that was a super cute ending. It's a shame the entire series wasn't structured like that last arc.. Childhood friend ftw!

same. spring looks like it will be one of the best seasons of anime for me in years.

Last arc wasn't that bad. The first two were pretty darn bad though. Only memorable thing to happen was the bath scene with the teacher, lol. Everything else was boring and bland.

HEYBOT! 25
Wow a Gurren Lagann reference? I knew Heybot was good

Of course anthology romance shows pretty damn thin on the ground. It is basically Amagami, Seiren, PhotoKano and nothing else.
With Seiren I would have expected arc 1 to be strongest, and despite having best girl, it wasn't. With arc three it seemed to improved a bit...so maybe theoretical arcs 4-6 would continue that trend.

First arc was the weakest of the 3 without a doubt. Ending was a stinker. 2nd arc was just cheesy, and boring as well. The 3rd was generic as all hell but at least it entertained me a bit. This is supposed to have a second season with more characters if this one does well, but idk. None of the other characters seemed that interesting to me to be quite honest.

I highly recommend My Hero Academia! It's a very inspiring story about superheroes and what it means to be one. It has a lot of heart. Check out the trailer.
And if you like it, a second season is starting in one week.

I'm open to anything but blatant fan-service harem stuff.
Thanks! I'll take a look at these.
I think I've seen one or two episodes of this, should start it up again.
To be fair, Dark Precure is really badass.

Photokano was bad but I still managed to finish it.
I quite liked amagami and look forward to the vn translation finishing.
I couldn't even make it past 1/2 way into Seiren.

Horikoshi hyping me up for the next season with cool art! I love how passionate he is.
I heard that the Rose/Alisha plots kinda take over and Sorey and the Seraphim get left in the dust. Once their arc is over, the plot just rushes to the final boss.
I'll still check it out regardless, but hopefully that isn't the case.

You owe it to yourself to check out one of the finest comedy anime you'll ever see in The Disastrous Life of Saiki K.
A number of cool scenes were cut from the Moon route and while I can understand which ones were cut for time, every scene in Moon is so good that cutting anything from it feels weird.
A surprising amount of Terra was intact. It was poorly directed and presented, but the events in the anime were accurate to the visual novel. There were even some additional scenes that fleshed out certain elements. Up until the last two episodes, where they just started cutting random scenes for time. Some of the cuts led to scene transitions that straight up didn't make any sense in the anime, like the one I mentioned in my previous post.

This is true.
It's like show was all of a sudden 'oh shit we're running out of episodes lets go last boss'.
I dropped it an episode or two ago because of how obviously rushed it became.
My man.
Outside of Thunderbolt Fantasy and Mob Psycho 100 that have already been recommended, these two were surprise highlights for me the last few seasons.
Girlish Number - About a voice actress who is a cynical cow and blames everyone else but herself for any problems with her life.
Tanaka-kun is always listless - A comedy series about an extremely lazy schoolboy. The first episode might be a bit of a miss but as the series introduces more characters it's hilarity increases. I think episode 3 is when it gets really good.

Heartcatch Precure 13
Cure Moonlight sugoi desu. She can defend herself against Dark Precure without transforming. Blossom and Marine take notes.
However the ending to the episode is probably one of the worst "I'll get you next time moments" I've seen. Just when Dark Precure is about to accomplish the main baddie's goal of defeating the Precure he calls her back because she is too focused on Cure Moonlight (???). How self defeating. Why should it matter what her motivations are as long as she gets the job done.
