Consensus for the manga design is a majority favors the hot women designs.
Most people saw the manga first obviously so they prefer those designs, though I can see why they would prefer them unbiased as well. Same shit happened with Hagani on that forum remember? Since we obviously don't get the LN translated the manga got down first and people wanted that style.
I got home ok.
Some roads are flooding though.
Definitely made the right decision.
Yeah it is a really beautiful show.
Going to watch Tamako market in a little bit.

The eyes really put me off for the manga design, but the art and drawing does look great.. the chara design that I have problem.
Ah.. its make sense.

Have there been any new good show lately? I haven't really been following anything for a long time and tend to stay to manga.
I would like to watch something with a genuinely good story/dialogue (with no moe bullshit). Preferably a well written slice-of-life/seinen/drama..
Or is the anime world nowadays solely filled with shows about 8 year old girls? Because that's about all I'm seeing in these types of threads..

No, not really.

All right peeps, thanks for the recommendations!
I agree, they are quite excellent as I have been reading them! So I probably don't have to watch the anime adaptions these..
I found that Kids on the Slope ended too abruptly (or at least cannibalizes itself a little too much in reaching the finale), for me to call it excellent. It certainly has flashes of that throughout, though (not least of all the music), so it's a shame that I felt so short-changed by its conclusion.
This is something of a reminder to read the manga too, because by all accounts, this is something which was largely brought about by the adaptation.
I'll be curious to get your thoughts, once you've finished it.

This.
If I was looking to watch the Fate series should I start with Zero or Stay Night?
Zero, as it is a prequel.

Really good moments in these episode. Kai as usual was stunning against the Kyou "Crush Rush" but I wonder what intensive training Ren Suzugamori makes his team go through to leave Kyou whimpering and crying.

Unfortunately i was a bit saddened that team Q4 lost in these preliminaries, thought the would be able to survive but I guess it was a huge order to expect them to somehow be able to win against the national champions of the previous year. If Kai leaves Q4 I will be sad. Kamui must be crushed to have left the team when they needed him most.

Well actually, I am already finished with Kids On The Slope and I thoroughly enjoyed it! It was very melancholic and I have no gripes with the ending at all (Volume 10 is the last one, right?).

if framerate wasn't so bad at times, CGs wouldn't look that bad. it's watchable mostly though.
pretty good, fun match.
this scene looks really wrong, the tanks are too small in relation to the street, RC toy tanks...
this scene can become a very useful good gif

Oh boy, going from the quality of Zero to Stay Night...
A lot of people seem to like Hyouka...might give it another go when I've got nothing else to watch. It started out okay but got bored around the time they got involved with that drama club or something (can't remember).

Ok thanks.
Watch the Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works instead.
Alternatively, Fate/Stay Night TV Reproduction for the first route as the other is another route. It's a summary of Fate/Stay Night TV's 26 episode run in 2 hours only.
Sigh... this season is so lackluster... I'll pick Tamako simply because there's nothing else to watch, and I want at least more than one (Haganai S2).
Also, when I finish watching Ixion Saga and Tonari no Kaibatsu-kun later today, my backlog season will start. Pokemon BW and BW2 will be included with a lot of other supposedly great shows.

Well...
You've met with a terrible fate, haven't you?
Also, just because they are just now starting to be popular it doesn't mean that everyone has one, it will be years of that trend continuing for that to be the case especially for students that can't exactly buy a phone whenever they like. Plus flip-phones are cute.
:Shaft. Maybe they'll fix it on the BD release. Said this on IRC too but I hate the direction they went with this. The sketches looked fine, what the hell happened. The colour filter they went with doesn't help it either. Ugly waste colours.

I thought Kimi to Boku was slice of life at its finest. I do not think turning it into something like THG would solve Tamako Market's problem.
Reproduction wasn't half bad. It excised all the harem shit and useless woman Saber stuff.
Just watch FSN first, if you planning to watch both anyway.. You will respect Zero more because quality jump etc etc, and I still think some FSN experience add something when you watch Zero.
Or just play the VN.
I get it DTL.
Good idea.

Now that you've watched the show you can appreciate why I had a hard time summarising what it was about!

That's what I seem to remember being the case as well.
Didn't know slice of life could include a talking bird that is capable of projecting images from its eyes. Yep, the epitome of slice of life for sure. It's cute (dat imouto) and I chuckled a few times but I get no sense of direction from this show whatsoever. For me it felt it was laying down multiple subplots but I don't really feel there's much of a main plot.
I do have to say though, when I saw that ouji guy projected by the Mochiyucky, I suddenly imagined all the NTR doujins using this plot device. I may need to seek professional help.

He's just in stasis. They'll summon him when he is needed.
Well, Kazou Koike really created the Japanese male power fantasy, a long with Takao Saito. This shouldn't surprise you!
Well the purpose of the episode was clearly to set up the gimmick and the setting while giving a cursory glance at a wide range of characters. I assume they'll get more developed as the show progresses.
My stomach hurts so much when the granny gives Gintoki a service.Gintama' - 257
Gintama is back!
Glorious.
New opening and ending as well.
Edit: Oh yes! Thisspringsummer the new Gintama movie will hit theatres.

While I am well aware that the anime compresses the storyline I don't really have any desire to visit the original source material. I don't really want to experience the work without hearing the music. I know that doesn't make any sense because of course the original source material doesn't have audio but it's not a prospect that appeals to me. The story may be more satisfying in an uncompressed format but for whatever reason I don't feel like revisiting it. I'm good.
I don't know how you can say lack of direction, when its succeedly establish the location, tone, theme and character in one episode, weird.
So you think its suddenly anytime still can turn to Gundam plot just because that? Yep.
direction means PLOT PLOT PLOT STORY PLOT PLOT PLOT in one direction PLOT PLOT PLOT
or something

KyoAni's done it again! Production values were pretty great as you would expect from a KyoAni show and I found the show to be pretty fun so far. They also managed to effectively establish the basic cast and setting in the first episode without dragging it out. Now to see how they follow through. Hopefully what they laid out in this episode evolves in some nice gags over time.

Continuation.
With the Miwarigumi and SH-SH-SHOGUN! will certainly bring the Shinsengumi. Even more fuck for your mind.
SPOILERS for those who haven't watched it yet, maybe a bit late heh...
Maybe "direction" is not the right word, but from the first episode I'm still not sure what kind of story it is trying to tell. My initial impressions of the show may have been complicated by my expectations that it would be a nice slice of life story, and there is a certainly somewhat of an element of that but that notion constantly gets torned down by the babbling (but occasionally funny) bird. Then we get the stereotypical spineless love interest to inject some sort of romance which I don't see culminating to anything by the time this series finishes...and that cliffhanger at the end, I actually thought the bird was high on something but to think this is their way of adding some sort drama to the anime is just..weird??? I dunno. I just find the subplot of "exotic prince sends bird to look for bride" very uncompelling.
And here I am, trying to identify a compelling story withing Tamako Market, yet I'm guilty of watching Lucky Star multiple times.
Lol, if only. I just personally hold slice of life to a very strict definition, meaning a genre void of any supernatural or science fiction elements.
Well, that's not what it means.
