trying to find ways to get back into anime but still have issues with my vision unable to read subtitles anymore 
the text moves to fast for my poor vision... still I want something to watch that is new and good.
There must be something that can replace Chobits as my all time favorite by now. Anything this season?

Maybe it's time for you to reconsider your stance? We're all forgiving. We'll still accept you. It's not too late!
In that one scene where she runs down the stairs, she'd roll down it instead.

Watch Tsumiki no Ie. No dialog at all.

Well if you love Chobits Im pretty certain you will love Pet girl of Sakurasou.

Deviant Art is failing me at the moment. I'll give them some more time, the show is fairly recent still.
Ill give Mayaka credit at that point in the show she was kind of adorable.
Why not? If it's still the bulk, it's obviously important, and my term usage was wrong.
I already admitted that my usage of the term was dubious and flat out wrong when duckroll translated the genre of the novel. The only thing that's left now is people judging a show for what they want it to be rather than what it is, yet again. Not you of course.
Hyouka has the best story since the renaissance.

How does it feel to be a vendepatria?
Never, the truth is episode 11 is an elaborate troll.
I see what you did there.
I- I- It's not like I like you or anything!all the fat went to this character instead
I'm sure history will vindicate me.
Oreki likes them big.
Hyouka was a show characterized by dull characters, dull mysteries, and dull themes made more interesting by a particlar event arc and made palateable by the sheer talent of KyoAni. if the show was not as gorgeous looking as it was, hardly anybody would care for it at all.
It's like John Madden is in here.
He's just having fun out there!
I believe he summed up all the Hyouka-Hate we've had for 3 pages now.

I can respect that. The weakest parts of Nichijou were those flying castle segments. They went on forever even though they were just okay.
I'm in the middle of a rewatch for Hyouka and Joshiraku. I'm done watching anything new since I'm still going through Space Brothers and Shin Sekai Yori. My brain is overloaded on the anime and I feel like I'm missing details as a result.
Thanks
Tsuritama is a fantastic show. I must have seen the cover a million times on Crunchy, but I didn't take the plunge until I remembered how many gaffers had watched it.
I completely forgot about Disappearance. Yeah, that is KyoAni's top work for me.
Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya>Nichijou>Haruhi S1=Hyouka>Fumoffu>Chuu2>K-On S1>K-On S2>Haruhi S2
Both seasons of K-On were good. Nagato is so awesome in Disappearance that I had to put it on top...
That title belongs to Joshiraku.
There is a certain show, but it is best left alone since I'd prefer to see it go away.
Hopefully a sequel that doesn't involve that bratty trio.
Irisu is no joke. I couldn't believe that Oreki got played like that and his reaction was amazing.
God, that cosplay was just adorable. Satoshi needs to man up already.
Such a beautiful show. I think this show will be my test anime whenever I get a new monitor or HDTV. The colors and detail in this show are just lovely to me eyes.
How are the themes of Hyouka even remotely dull? There is a diverse spread with multiple themes for a number of characters that overlap. The topics it touches on are thoughtful and open to multiple means of interpretation while encouraging good discussion.
They can be well done, but that doesn't mean their content appeals to everyone.
Well in any case, we've finally managed to solve the mystery of the actual genre of the show which, as it turns out, was actually lost in translation and led to many of us developing false expectations in regards to what the show would be about. It still doesn't change the fact that I found the characters, their interactions and their development to be unengaging and devoid of interest for the most part, not to mention them being oftentimes unbelievable or unrelatable in their behavior and/or interests.
Having said that, I will say that I am willing to try rewatching the show a second time in the future with a more open mind and having readjusted expectations as to what it actually is since it's concedable that there must be something in there people saw that perhaps I didn't.

I like Disappearance and all, but it's not even Nichijou good. Which in turn is one show that I remember more fondly as time goes by.
Its topics are universal and wide reaching. I dunno. Rarely do I consider the themes covered to be something that can detract from my enjoyment of a piece of media. I mean the stuff in Hyouka can be as simple as failing to live up to expectations, or disappointing a group you were working with because you went and did things your own way.
I wanna like Nichijou that much, if not because the hakase gags that always ruining episode for me.
I don't actually remember much from the memoirs and what I do remember, I get mixed up with the LN and/or the movie. Tohko is indeed best character and one of the things I liked about Bungaku Shoujo is how the author never tried to harem-ify it. I don't know maybe it was a product of the times and maybe older LNs didn't do much harem-y shit. (But I'm reminded of Shakugan no Shana which came out around the same time and it had terrible harem-y shit)
There was never any doubt who the main character was and the whole series was basically just about them "solving" the mysteries with a little "will-they or won't-they" mixed. No, psycho chick doesn't count. At all.
I'm a bigger Crest/Banner fan than Lafiel. He's a faker.
The cat is a bro and Nano is okay but Hakase really brings the whole thing down for their segments more often than not.

Nichijou is very hit and miss with the jokes and the hakase ones were certainly more miss than hit.

There's also that KyoAni announcement that the genre of their next show was gonna be "mi" which turned out to be "mystery".

Dammit! I'm reading that page now and came back here to edit my post! Now you've quoted me and exposed my shame to everyone.
