Good conclusion to this amnesia two-part. Now if we could fix Gori-san back to his Gorila-self.

I hope this is true I dislike false rumours. I cant wait to see how much deeper it gets with the incarnation system and powerups taku could get haru too, as well as if mintjam and onoken return for musics. And altima for an op or ed. Hopefully another bus scene too.

The first of the legendary episodes with this gintama trully starts ( for you )!
Seriously 3 lenghty crying scenes...in 24 episodes.
Humanity Has Declined 11-12
You weren't expecting this , were you ?
Now go watch the specials !

Orwell's Animal Farm is overrated pretentious rubbish confirmed.
What the hell am I reading...
You really need teenage boys in everything you read/watch?
I believe the Lion King was his example when he was arguing this in the past!
Obviously propaganda.
But The Lion King is Hamlet, and Hamlet has a tortured bishounen lead...

Can't say I'm disappointed in the results. Nekomono and Joshiraku were probably never gonna make it. Glad to see

I absolutely loved the movie. Definitely my favorite thing I watched last year. The fact that it looked so good was just icing on the cake.
I'm disappointed in you guys.
So I take it

I bet you walk on two legs and sleep on beds with sheets, you monster.
Vampires are nonhuman.
But you like Digimon adventures
Good point!
Embrace it!
Yeah now I do. Going to rewatch it when I get home today as I was starting to drift off around the second half.

I'm not going to be satisfied until I see art of fat Mayaka.
I might have to do this myself...
Despite having never watched any of it, I enjoy reading people discussing it.
and I enjoy some precure doujins

Damn, this show is dense. In a good way. I wound up rewatching a few scenes. The mystery is still swirling pretty intensely. I'm starting to find some ways to put the symbolism into focus.
Dolls. Boxes. Severed arms and legs. Spotlights. Shadows. I think a running theme (at least in this episode) has to do with a loss of agency and control, perhaps in exchange for the preservation of the eternal. Or perhaps not. Either way, many of them mark a transition from "life" to "object". Perhaps I'm just babbling.
Detective Kiba remains the most interesting character, I think. I'm glad the show raised more ties to the past of the war. I wonder how they'll handle some of that stuff.
Besides what feels like pretty firm evidence for one of Brazil's earlier assumptions, there isn't much advancement on the mystery, even if a potentially large element got revealed early in the episode. The answers in this show probably matter less than what they represent. I get the feeling the gloved man will remain an enigma for a long time.
Once again, I look forward to watching more.
This was a disturbing end to a disturbing scene. The weird perspective mismatch creates a lot of tension just on its own.

No matter what happens in this scene, nobody ever crosses to Sekiguchi's side of the table. He's always the only one in the light of the window, and the line of the shadow divides him from everyone else in the room.

The dancer in this scene caught my attention. The way a lot of the scene was set, she seemed trapped by the spotlight. There was one cut in particular that gave me that impression. Are dancers and performers also like dolls? Given that Kanako's sister was (is?) an actress, we might come back to it.
Detective Kiba remains the most interesting character, I think. I'm glad the show raised more ties to the past of the war. I wonder how they'll handle some of that stuff.
Having a doctor in Manchuria that conducted experiments to create an "immortal soldier" could lead all kinds of places, and I hope they push it somewhere that would make their audience uncomfortable.
There's no way that the similarity between the soldiers of Kiba's delusion and the empty doll limbs of before is coincidental. And I think that's highlighted pretty clearly when he calls the tank a Kasha.

This was a fairly interesting visual experience if nothing else, there didn't seem to be much in the way of conventional storytelling, then again I didn't expect anything of the sort, worth looking into at the very list if you are a fan of Amano's designs or are interested in that sort of thing. (and I'm quite unsure what this sort of thing is, toodeepforme.jpg etc)

Arent vampires a special case, I mean they were originally humans. Dio is pretty human to me.
The digidestined were honestly the main attraction in that and honestly the reason why I liked it, the character designs and interactions really stood out and made for the more memorable moments and they were relatable. The digimon themselves didnt really every show development or anything and the best digimon designs were like Angemon.
The website says, I believe, that there are "new developments" for Pingdrum in Comic Birz. I guess that's their way of being cryptic about the manga starting up.
I have to believe there's an anime coming out of this. Why else would there be so many shots of storyboards? I recognise a few of the location shots from the anime - I think I can see the fans from on top of the hospital (?), and aren't those stairs near where Himari and Ringo first meet with the curry and the skunk in episode 4?
I really wish they'd announce a date for the UK Blurays

That's not Dio add another 30 years onto whatever that fanfic is.
And Vampires are more or less bats, at least that's where I can see the inspiration from.

This is quickly becoming an elaborate house of cards, isn't it? I know it's going to go badly, but my morbid curiosity keeps me guessing as to how spectacularly it will all come crashing down. The narrative I mean, my own personal enjoyment is still very much intact!
Shinji, why is that I find you so inherently unlikeable? Admittedly, his reasons for being despondent are understandable (having basically been conscripted to pilot a gigantic death-machine), though he goes about it in such a maudlin way, I still found difficult to sympathize. Which extends to the closing moments of the battle, though it's clear to see why he breaks at this point, it's still pretty dumb when you consider the overall insignificance of the event.
It may be a little too early for me to be casting dispersions on any one character, but yeah, don't like him.
As a side-note, I also find it odd when giant mechs wield up-scaled versions of conventional weaponry. But I admit that this is probably something of an irrational hatred, because I'm aware that people really dig like sort of details.

I can usually forgive instances of plot-armour, but this just bugged me for whatever reason.

Because he's by far the worst character ever. Fuck him.
