I feel like watching Black Rock Shooter (TV) right about now. I only watched the 1st episode.

I blame tokusatsu. Silly Anno and his love for 3D actors and 3D effects.*

Crazy levels are hard to compare as they are crazy in different ways. But you are free to find out if you watch on!
For gassing, obviously.
Watch Isekai no Seikishi Monogatari. Best harem evar.

All this Anno talk has made me realise he's basically been working on Rebuild for eight years now. Part of me wanted him to come back to telly anime in full-form after he were done with the movies, but I don't think that's gonna be possible anymore. I smell another hiatus.

Sounds like something an Eva fan would say.
You're probably right.
So she doesn't die from breathing poisonous gasses.
Gratzies.

was ok, but the rest of this show remains uninteresting. And I feel like I've missed something, what exactly is the significance of this Gate City?

At least he hasn't fallen as far as Oshii. Speaking of which, isn't he supposed to be working on a comedy?

The gate is were you can go from human side to demon side..without any kind of magic cheat.
So if you're going to invade , this place is kinda important.
She reminds me of Corticarte. I think its the hair ribbon design and hair.
Except that Corticarte is cuter.

Just bizarre. Just when you think you know Oshii he goes and proves that he's still not out of odd places to go with his career.
School Days, Yosuga no Sora, 11eyes, Mashiroiro Symphony, Rumbling Hearts/KGNE, Popotan, efOkay Anime-GAF:
find me an anime series, non hentai, maybe even non ecchi where sex does happen. No, nothing graphic, just a series where there is more than mayyybe a big hug at the end to show the guys actually do like each other.
It was ridiculous back in Tenchi Muyou already when you had Ryouko snooping around... the later cut down on her character because she was so forward. The fact shows later always gravitated to shy girl wins later also... nawww, different post.
Since then, Anime relationships have constantly dangled the carrot but none of the poor cast members ever got a bite.
So, any shows where the characters got more "lucky"?? Panty&Stocking I already know

Gundam AGE Episode 31 "You can teach a young human new tricks!"
Flit's pet Kio has always been trained to rush in on the evil Vegan people. But Ms Pinkhairlady taught Kio that you can actually evade the enemy once in a while. Handy!
The part at the beginning where they were talking about the Vegan's advanced technology was another example of why Flit is awful. The crew can't say that the technology is good because it gets in the way of the killing.
Next Episode: Something predictable happens.

Since it's a 80s OVA, I figured the lasers would be shooting from their breasts.

That's where their exhaust/cooler ports are so they release hot fumes after opening doors there after a big laser attack. Did I also mention they know martial arts?

As I said, this episode was weird. You can see the germ of a number of ideas that Anno will explore later such as: underground bases, Antarctica and penguins. Always gotta have penguins.
Besides all the normal stuff there's a variety of rather bonkers revelations about the world of Nadia:

I don't remember any of this stuff having any bearing on the later story but it is really odd.

There's a giant tree under Antarctica that's the source of all life on Earth.
-
A highly intelligent race of dinosaurs once ruled the earth.
-
Captain Nemo is good friends with a 20,00 year old talking whale.

Captain Nemo can apparently command penguins. Penguins are intelligent, apparently.

Only if this does go a bit further than the usual, as per request of my original post. I have seen so many harems in my lifetime already.
Thanks.
edit: wait, schooldays? Hell no, I am derpessed enough as it is already.

The show is Amagami SS btw. The Sae arc. They basically retconned the original ending.

Motherfucking other shows getting in the way of me watching Nadia.
I see Black Rabbit. Everything is fine.
Haha I just thought of this a few minutes ago.
Infact, there are a couple of the girls' routes, where it'd be amazing if he didn't get lucky from the situations that presented themselves.

Transition episode. Way too many words, but promise of badassery to come. Wonder if we'll ever see the limit to Izayoi's brokenness.

Poor Ando. First Zetsuen is falling apart, and next people are going to laugh at his new "movie" which looks like a TV episode.
Well, it looks like Hanasaku Iroha, which means it doesn't look great, especially for a movie. But it's directed by Ando, which means it should have great storyboarding and direction, just like his episodes on the show.
I guess it must be a sidestory since
the Inn is still open.

You don't need to worry about that, the show's world-building is very thorough and makes sense in a way that few anime ever attempt.
I'm glad to see you seem to be enjoying it now but did we really need to know that much?

Now to watch Gunbuster or Plastic Little. Decisions. I could also watch Smile PreCure or Ojomajo Doremi I guess...
But it has careful attention to girl's posteriors so it does its own thing too!

I honnestly don't see what's the big deal is.
BRS is a damn fine set of episodes .. it's depressing at times, but it does have a happy ending
What's more
Honnestly i loved all the cgs fights ..it starts of ridiculous but afterwards it's get classic but still great.They really went all out with the weapons !
Too bad saya-chan-sensei couldn't have more spotlight.. she clearly was intresting but they couldn't expand on her properly .. the 4 girls however were nicely presented and i honnestly think this anime, while not for everyone is well above average , and at some times excellent when it tries to catch the viewer off guard.
As i said before i don't see what's the big deal with this show is. It's far from being a masterpiece , but it's far from being something bad or unenjoyable. It's not for everyone of course , but i don't feel like i've sufered or forced myself to watch them all.
VERDICT : VERY GOOD
For those who want to watch , do it ..it's not that bad, unless you cannot stand CG animation. I do feel like the show could have gone easily in the wrong direction and they didn't. For now i'm totally satisfied.

with bitterweet sacrifices that forces the girls to face their emotions and move forward in life.
What's more
the alternate versions still keep their sentient thoughts ( since their eyes are still colored ) and choose to keep fighting because that's what they should do.
Honnestly i loved all the cgs fights ..it starts of ridiculous but afterwards it's get classic but still great.They really went all out with the weapons !
BRS is a tale of girls in middle school that hurt each others and are hurting in order to find a way to move forward ... it does not hold back the punches , it's damn disturbing at times. but the end result is pretty much Good.
Are you naive ? Yes you are !!!

Silly girl , the real world is not that scary ..
