I don't know what to think anymore. Just I never saw that coming.
To quote the novels:

A high school boy that looks just like a beautiful girl -- Why on Earth did I ever believe something like that actually existed?

How many times did I tell myself stuff like "I just cannot think of him as a guy," or "He looks exactly like a girl, no matter how you look at it," I wonder.

If something looks exactly like a beautiful girl, then chances are pretty good it really is a beautiful girl.

Persona 4 The Animation may have terrible battles but the comedy and Broswagonist makes up for everything.

AIC knows how to do a silent protagonist. Look at this guy, not a single fuck is given.

That look of satisfaction on Yosuke's face is still amazing.

And I echo what every has said about the P4 anime, downright ugly, but yeah, there are a lot of details in there to let you know that there is affection for the source.

In summary:


It has two Chie's.

Anything shorter than a year-long courtship period involving nothing lewder than hand holding and sheepishly asking for your partner's hand before the consummation of vows in holy matrimony is improper seduction.
I was thinking it sounded more like a British thing. Or something that Chiri from Sayonara Zetsubo Sensei would say, "Sensei, please seduce me properly!" But mainly it sounds British.
...I have no idea how to take this...
There's no way to really take it, just is, lol. Are you familiar with Triumph's skit? he basically says shit like, "Hugo's are great vehicles......
....For me to poop on!" So at the post I was reading it really came off like that, so and so's a complex character study, yadda, yadda, and then it was basically "for me to masturbate to," lol, totally Triumph. Then I went further backwards(Phone keeps skipping ahead to the newest page) in the thread and saw you had stuff that was like that all throughout and now the Triumph comparison doesn't work too well. :(

Reading those was amazing because I went through emotions I didn't know I had. Apparently there's stages of disbelief. Lots of them. Ultimately though I settled into the stage where, like Ohno from Genshiken, I want to come in and say "that's not what I masturbate too, this is what I masturbate to!"

It's not like she chose her nickname.
Then again, who does? On thing I can say for certain though is it either means you're silly and young or you're the crazy person who feeds all the neighborhood strays.

Also, Ushiki draws Smile Precure fanart so you know he's a bro.
A Brocure.
FF VI is probably one of the best choices to make into an anime because it's not already a bad CGI anime with a video game mixed in, LOL.
Is that a dig towards FFVII? Or just towards all PSX/PS2/PS3 era FFs?
I'm playing P4 for the first time and I gotta admit, I'm morbidly curious about the anime. I get the feeling that I'd enjoy it despite how awful it is objectively.
True words. I only watched it for the Chie fsteak.
I beg to disagree. One of the things that made Kanji's arc in Persona 4 the video game was how tactfully it was handled in terms of showing his doubt over his sexual orientation, with little stereotypical comedy as possible. The anime completely missed the point there, reducing his character to the traditional sweet but funny "gay man".
WTF?! In what planet is Milky Way better than Snickers?
In the planet where I'm allergic to nuts/peanuts and I die from asphyxiation if I eat Snickers.
Fuck Snickers.
Mah man.
it's all about Znickers
I'm getting hot in my knickers.
BRS TV is worth it just for Imaishi doing CGI battles.
What's the point of watching a show for the sakuga when sakuga MADs are a thing now?

I don't know why I thought of this, but does anyone know when Gothicmade might get a disc release? It already aired in theaters, right?

A lot of that is down to the localization. The original Japanese dialogue leaves, *ahem*, a little to be desired.

It opened in November, but since then they've been slowly expanding the availability by opening in a few screens in different regions after other screenings stop. I think they're trying to achieve nationwide coverage, and based on what I can tell from the terrible official site, it looks like it's only opening in some screens in early Feb.

As such, I'll say the disc release probably won't happen until towards the end of the this year.

So it's just been showing in a few theaters around Japan for a few months now? That's kind of crazy.

Why hasn't zeroshiki previewed it for us yet?

So why isn't there an Idolmaster episode where one of the girls gets caught in Producer-san's room and she has to shave her head and get demoted?

It's Macaron lol.

Nevermind i was wrong.
Its been a long shitty night. Im exhausted and likely to fall asleep at the wheel driving home.

Since the English word macaroon can also refer to the macaroon, many have adopted the French spelling of macaron to distinguish the two items in the English language. However, this has caused confusion over the correct spelling. Some recipes exclude the use of macaroon to refer to this French confection while others think that they are synonymous.

You're both right.

The creative process behind this show must've been like this:

"Hey I made some random shitty CG scene."
"Great, throw it in that Movie Maker project with all the others and hit 'render'."

This is really boring. I'm having trouble articulating why this is poorly written. It's cohesive, which seems to be a rarity now, but the writing itself is dull and the whole story feels sorta cliche. There's really no spark to anything in this show.

Did the direction for the show ever get any better from the first two episodes? Judging from impressions, probably not. My biggest beef with it was that it was just so ordinary, and not in a good way. Everything is presented in the bare minimum that someone would expect given the scene, and nothing more. Scene layouts are boring. Character interactions are like echo chambers. Backgrounds were flat and layered. It was really like... watching someone play a visual novel. Truly mundane and a waste of time.
