Way ahead of you. It's gross. If it were even the slightest bit good it would already be a thing by now. You can however, put espresso into regular coffee. Some places call that a red eye. It's alright when you're hung over. Otherwise, it's all about that straight espresso or delicious black coffee!

still going to try it
No I meant the Egyptian thing.
Eureka Seven 15
So this was a pretty slow episode, but the last couple minutes of it still paid off nicely. Renton with balls means that, like all True Men, Renton has to learn not to be a cocky bastard. I'm not sure if Eureka is pissed because Renton killed a ton of guys with the Nirvash, or because silly anime robot personality ish. In any case, the pay off of the episode was Renton's uncle, who had spent the entire episode trying to lie to keep Renton safe, is taken off to jail, looking pretty upset at the same time that Renton is having his super cocky moment, illustrating that Renton's actions are getting people hurt without his knowledge.
So while the episode was slow, the end of it was pretty good.
Pretty much. :lol
In this case it's bad. A bunch of (well-animated) obnoxious nonsense.
Light novel adaptation.
Ah. I see.

For Nafe:
For what it's worth, they just gloss over this part and say "Light music club".
Also, Mio's base is called "Elizabase". lol
Well, I guess I should say it's the precursor. lol

Never underestimate their ability to formulate something coherent, amidst the ridiculous!

This show is weird. But here are my predictions: Mishima isn't real. She only exists in Kamina's head. Kamina's mom is the Gendo Ikari. All of this is just an alternate reality Shinji Ikari is experiencing during Third Impact.
ALL ANIME ARE JUST ALTERNATE REALITIES SHINJI IKARI IS EXPERIENCING DURING THIRD IMPACT.

That episode with Yui's gitta and Mio's elizabass was adorable!
Personally I found karuta just fascinating. Though at the same time I'm impressed at the abilities of folks to make a card game visually interesting.

They basically just translate that scene just like if it were just subs. It's one of the things that bothers me in the dub. They never really try to make the show more palatable for a new audience, you know, the whole reason dubs exist.
Though for the whole Kyoto dialect, they change it to ye olde English. Though it would have been funnier if they localized it like the manga did.
The Egyptian gods Osiris and Isis are brother and sister, as well as husband and wife.
Ah. Well, I mean, there's the whole Adam and Eve thing, where regardless of their relationship, their children would have to get it on, but I mean, nobody tries to market that . . .
Ah, so Aria is about three seasons long then hm? I didn't know how long the show was having not seen it yet.
Yeah, sorry if I wasn't clear as I know what it stands for. I was meaning having it pronounced like "own" works as it's short for Ongaku or music but changing the pronunciation to "on", like turning a light switch on, it now loses the original meaning. I guess it's like Chet mentioned though, in that it still probably wouldn't make sense either way anyway in English.
You know, I should watch the Kyoto episodes just to see how they handle the scene where they give Azu-cat her "character" to see how they even tried to localize that part. lol
Only for pre-order bonuses. I came in much too late for those though... one of the bonuses was a Aria-sachou toy.
Do they actually translate Azu-nyan as Azu-cat?
Haha, I haven't seen Aria yet so I had to look up which character that was.

Oh man, I didn't even think of the accents. lol
If they ever do the movie, it's going to be "hilarious".

I actually have no clue. lol
Best mascot character in animu.
In that scene anyway, they don't bother. But they must figure that anyone watching would already understand the context anyway.
From the New World 15
Squealer is a true hero to humanity. While human civilization decays and eats itself in an attempt to control its barbaric instincts, Squealer is busy rediscovering society's lost technology and reinventing democracy. Looks to me like our heroes are just jealous that a lowly queerat has the guts to make hard decisions and the courage to liberate oppressed colonies.
Another low-budget episode, but still effective because of the strong writing and decent storyboarding.
Machiavelli wishes he had this much swag.

For real though, there's no way Maria and Mamoru are going to make it out of this alive.

Nafe, there are three seasons of Aria.
Aria the Animation
Aria the Natural
Aria the Origination
Same.
Karuta is pretty neat looking imo.
I dont know a lick of japanese, but it appears to be one of those "minute to learn, lifetime to master" sorts of games.

Man, that really sucks. I don't really know what I could offer to the project though, maybe editing if my grasp on grammar wasn't complete shit.

No, they leave it as Azu-nyan. KyoAni did a better job of coming up with a localized nickname for her. lol
In fact, they leave a lot of words untranslated like sempai and kohai, which really bug me. It's not like they're untranslatable words you know!
They just go about the scene like what people would translate it for subs. Then again, I have no idea how one would even try to localize that part beyond just taking the whole scene out.
Oh man, I didn't even think of the accents. lol

I have no idea what they'll do for the movie. It's not like they could just pretend it's some other European country.

In a school setting it's so easy to translate too.
Work settings I can understand though.

Mysterique Sign (The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya ep 9, i think)
Odd comparisons are often funny and poor Koizumi couldnt even play their daily board game together. Some of the dialogue is odd as it seemed like Kyon was almost introducing us to each character for the first time again, though the reference back to the stuff that happened at the Bamboo Episode
was kind of a bit pleasing in an odd way.
In this episode the
looked so odd in comparison to the animation etc though at least the visuals during the big moment looked great. Kyon had hilarious lines all throughtout and the the final minute
made me laugh.
I think Nagato must have some larger role things happening way too smoothly unless shes just really bored

They better give us some explanation in episode 2 !
Yet another reason why airing order is the only true order.
Maybe not the yellow one, but the red one is totally the kind of girl I'd be drooling over in junior high.

And it goes
Aria the Animation = Decent
Aria the Natural = Great
Aria the Origination = Masterpiece
Damn I miss Aria =(. It was so relaxing to watch one episode before going to bed. Put smile on my face everytime.
I watch it now and then when Im off work.
An episode here or there.
through about half of season one.
Damn straight!
That said in this case skipping a few episodes is advised :lol

How did you all watch it like that, wouldnt you like not know the events he refers too, etc?

Yeah. First season is little slow so don't stop even if you get little bored with it. Second is already a lot better and well third is in my top 5 anime list.
Regulus Tera
Romanes Eunt Domus
Send me a PM.
Not gonna stop.
Aria is really enjoyable when I have to relax, it just takes a certain mood to want to watch it.

DITTO .
I see nothing wrong here .
Cool music but a great soundtrack is not what i need ..i need answers ..hopefully not as some kind of final episode twist..
Wait that's what gainax does ....it's shaft here so we should be fine ...
we won't know at all
I was literally crying at the end of the last episode of Origination. My favorite anime series.
I think anyone who likes to watch Haruhi in original broadcast order is a masochist. This is why I read the Manga, which is in complete order of the story, that and I'm not sure when the next animé series will be made if it does get made, but the last light novel should be coming out this year, and that means an end to a great series.
Anyway, be prepared for Endless Eight (Ep 12-19), it's probably best not to watch every single one of them, it wears most people down.
So where does Aria the Scarlet Ammo fit in?
Neaux.
