I'm up to episode 10 of Hyouka. I wish the pacing was a tad quicker in places but this show is oddly captivating.
 
Currently finishing up Amagami SS Plus. Also more people need to watch Ishida to Asakura. The episodes are only 2 minutes long and full of amazing "things."

I just sneezed and spilled an entire large hot cup of delicious coffee all over myself, the table, the floor and carpet. It was an interesting way to wake up this morning.

Preview for Tamako Market episode 3:

So this is a fourth girl hmm? Approved.

Would you rather have K-ON!?

Thats....unusual.

yama no susume - 03

There's something charming about the show's attention to the little camping gidgets, although this demonstration here of the portable stove wasn't as impressive as ep2's portable tent.

Future of anime.

That stove brings me back to my glorious Boy Scouts days. Camping all the time and living life. It was pre-animu times. I don't know how I survived.

maybe its because the ozone is very thin and the air is clean here making sunburns a real problem, but that tan does not look healthy at all
azusa is going to become a wrinkled old lady before her seniors

She wouldn't survive in Louisiana. Especially not out on the water where the sunlight reflects onto you like a solar death ray.

Truly. I need more shows that are this good. Short, but powerful and to the point...



No, you see... anime girls are like porn stars. We glorify and praise them while they are young, and then throw them out like yesterday's trash when they get too old. That's okay though, because we can immortalize them forever by watching reruns :3 Azunyan... wait for me...

Isn't that how Japan treats youth in reality too?

Gunbuster is one of the classiest around. Good on all fronts really. I was worried that 6 episodes wouldn't have been enough to make me care about all the characters or world, but I was proven dead wrong.

6 episodes is more than enough for a well written OVA to make you care about it. Hell, three episodes is enough. Ive seen enough OVAs to know.

AHAHAHAHA!











I might want it...

Forget might, I DO want this.
Putting Cute in every picture? Sounds like heaven.

... Is this why AnimeGAF has more avatars of real people than normal? Holy crap, that explains that discussion about RurouniZel!

Zel is a handsome bastard, but I think we can all agree he should go back to Miku.

Yep, gotta thank this show for reminding me just how much of a shit Kassim is and how stupid it was of Alibaba not to
see things through to the end. He should've done what was right.

The only question I have is, how much Yanderezawa is in it?

If you ever want to get an idea for what a terrible composer he is, watch some Oda Nobuna no Yabou if you haven't already. His hammy synthfest junk manages to be serviceable in Precure, but it's glaringly terrible elsewhere. Dude has no range whatsoever.

I'll give him that his transformation themes are always solid. But man, what I wouldn't give to hear a version of Let's Play, Precure Modulation from Suite performed with actual instruments and vocals. Half of his problem is that he performs his music on a freaking Casio keyboard or some shit.

I love the song you linked here. My favorite of the Precure transformation themes. Not even a contest.

Just had a idea for a new Gen Urobuchi show.

Idolm@ster + Urobuchi = Buchimas!

This is genius. Think of the suffering that could be achieved! (Leave Takane out of it)


Your efforts are greatly appreciated.
I'm not saying I saved all of these, but I saved all of these.

You sound clumsier than Haruka with jam covered shoes on ice.

Right on brother!

My roommate often has to tuck items against the walls and keep them out of the middle of the floor because me or the other roommate WILL encounter the item, slip and fall on it and break something. Its inevitable.

Smile Precure 47

tl;dr 7th stop spreading lies. Smile 23, 35, and 43 remain the best showcases of Toei going all nuts in this season.

Like half of the episode has very uneven animation. It doesn't help that
Ultimate Pierrot's design is super boring to look at
.

Smile Precure 23

Just watch the episode and OMG that animation

After this Nao is my favorite precure she's awsome, and Sunny in princess mode HNNNNGGGGHHH

I'm enjoying this show more than expected, I'm ultra happy now

Something I've never known: how do you type in Japanese characters?

I'm partial to Google IME but the default MSFT one isn't bad.

I didn't even bother with the light novel (why would I subject myself to more SAO?). All opinions are a result of the show only.

Hmm, either I am a not very discerning viewer or I watched an edited version of the show. Some of the strangest things get edited. I had a Hong Kong bootleg of Utena which edited out a comedic bit about make-up.

I think there is a problem with the Mayo Chiki DVD. In episode 6 the subtitles are gone 5 minutes into the episode and return 5 minutes later.

Edit: Some Japanese gaming news, Project X Zone is coming to the US in the summer

From the New World 16

Wow, that has to be one of my favorite episodes so far. The OP they did for the flashback scenes was oddly sudden which made it weird initially, but otherwise this was a really interesting episode both in visuals and narrative. Definitely a strong way to close the arc. I'm not sure whats going on with
that kid in Saki's nightmare, not really sure who that could be. I was thinking it was her sister initially, but I believe Saki mentions it was a boy so I dunno where they are going with that aspect. The strange looking monsters made that whole scene very engaging though.

Well, in reference to that scene:
It's clearly a boy because, well, he's dressed in blue. It could either be Shun, but that really doesn't make any sense, or some new character. I'd lean towards someone new.

I think the dream character is Yamauchi, and he's warning everyone that the worst of his art style invading the show is yet to come.

Hataraki Man 3

[..]

While none of the episodes had much budget, this was the first one where I really felt it. The end of the episode, where they're rushing to get the issue to print, should have felt tense and exciting, but it didn't wind up feeling very dynamic.
That's a josei adaptation for you. I'm surprised it got made at all!
Good to see that she can enter "Work Mode" without engaging her "Man Switch". Maybe that bit of silliness will never come back.

Well it is, unfortunately, the name of the series.
 
Haganai 1-4

Another backlog series, started last night. LOVE IT. Especially episode 4 with
The Eva-02 vs. ZZ Gundam "porn" :D.

Edit: Some Japanese gaming news, Project X Zone is coming to the US in the summer

Glad I wasn't able to import something for once. Can't wait!

Okay, I kinda have to say, the K-ON!! OP is growing on me a bit. Maybe it's Stockholm syndrome or something. The vocals still annoy me, but I've come to rather enjoy Mugi's keyboard in the song.

Now that the poll is closed, I hope kayos90 has learned a valuable lesson on democracy. The people have spoken and this is what they have said:

- Over half the voters felt it was a waste of time to even debate the issue. They might or not might have something against me, but they probably don't. After all I'm so lovable no one could possibly dislike me. So clearly they just wanted to indicate they didn't care what the OT numbering would be. That's fair.

- On the other hand, we have to focus on the half who did seem to care about what the OT numbering would be. The winner is clearly OT -5, so the reign of the Minus arc continues. There's no stopping it, and kayos90 will have to accept this.

tl;dr - I hope kayos90 has the new OT ready in a day or so when it needs to go up, and he better fucking use the OT -5 numbering! :D

[Gintama] - 266

The Gintama formula is as predictable as ever but the show is still as entertaining as ever. We'll see how this develops, talking about the start of Gintama arcs is rarely very interesting.

Can he use the "this is stupid, duckroll sucks" line for the subtitle at least?

Why would he though? No one really thinks duckroll sucks, duckroll is an adorable member of AnimeGAF. We should focus on how stupid the poll was, instead of making duckroll feel sad! :D

What city is that?

Los Angeles!

Isn't that how Japan treats youth in reality too?

I wouldn't really know!

Zel is a handsome bastard, but I think we can all agree he should go back to Miku.

It's true, even as the raging hetero that I am, he is easy on the eyes... women and gay men melt at the sight of him, and straight men become jelly. He should switch back as soon as possible!

I for one appreciate the delicious Christmas cake.

Of course you do! Know what's nice? Yuri cake docking :> There's no squish, but the close-up where the nipples touch >___>

Maturity, bitches.
I tried to tell kayos it was inevitable, but he chose not to listen. I'm glad democracy came through in the end!
 
Splash Star did both things first, actually.
And the final battle is against the Big Bang itself.
Finally someone who watched splash star besides me.

When so many people praiise heartcatch i always say: "you're right but you should watch splash star too" but so few actually listen to my advice
