You really should just be watching Doremi and more importantly I should be selling people on Doremi.

Blah, blah, Black Star does something. Unimportant.
But the last 10 minutes:
THAT WAS THE MOST HILARIOUS AND AWESOME THING IN THIS SERIES EVER. EVER.

So, Shinigami's desire turns out to basically give his city legs so he can proceed to go and smash the living crap out of the enemy.
Well of course, we can't have none of that, so it turns out that the enemy's castle also becomes mobile, and WE GET THE CLOSEST THING TO A MECHA FIGHT IN THIS SERIES WITH A SPIDER CASTLE FIGHTING A GIANT CITY/SCHOOL WITH LEGS.
AND AT THE END, SHINIGAMI STICKS A FINGER INTO THE SPIDER CASTLE, GRABS THE BIG BAD AND EATS HIM.

Do people actually order these things?
white mocha frap w/ caramel sauce and extra whipped cream (something else i can't read though)

Does that actually tell people how to order? lol
Not really, although I might recommend trying The Unlimited: Hyoubu Kyousuke as a few people like it here. Basically, it's about an esper terrorist organization and the double agent trying to bring them down from within.
That looks rather disgusting.

A little too much whipped cream but that doesn't sound bad.
They do 3/4 of all Precure and One Piece.

That rights, Dirty Pair is secretly one of the most progressive anime ever. It's probably the only series to tackle (and by tackle I mean support) transgender themes and have sweet shoot-outs in the same episode.
Well they did a great job with Smile at least.
Sword Art Online sell double what Chuunibyou does, it must be twice as good.
Shin Sekai Yori continues to be good Sci-Fi. If you have the means, I recommend it.
I don't think that the studios that episodes are outsourced to have any creative control over what they work on; they're simply there to inbetween/color/etc.
You bet!
So youre saying that derpface first came from a Japanese animator?

Depends if you consider Space Brothers or Tamako Market science fiction I suppose. The latter is probably a bit more of a stretch, admittedly.

Yeah, it's got a great OP. The show itself is average, upper low-tier shounen, but it's not the worst thing ever and definitely has some highs.
I enjoyed the 5 or so episodes of Buson Renkin that I watched, sadly it hit my backlog and once something hits that....
Watching 10
Completed 173 (I think I've finished like 4-5 series at most in the last few years...)
On Hold 370
Do feel like getting back into it one day though...

bad gameplay lol

Nice little prequel to the series. Not much else to say, really. <3

Watch From the New World/Shin Seki Yori. It technically started last season but since it's still airing, it counts. In any case it's one of the best sci-fi works in recent memory.
No, I think QUALITY art generally comes about at the "grunt work" levels of animation. Not all anime is outsourced at the less prestigious levels, of course, but unless I'm talking out of my ass, key animators, who are usually located in Japan, aren't the ones directly responsible for bad art.

Well, with you an Aria I thought you were used to stretching definitions.

From seeing Azusa's photo at the end of the last episode, I was hoping she'd get more focus this episode. What I got instead was just her getting a hair cut and a bunch of focus on the dude that doesn't even have a name. I'm surprisingly ok with Azusa's hair cut. I always felt she was originally designed with shorter hair. It's a crying shame that she got stuck with two of the worst characters on the show though. Why did they separate the two twins anyways?
I didn't quite understand this part...

This is a very good choice for the block.
Because they knew that no one would put up with both of them together.

I know that it's cheap and easy and not particularly funny but nevertheless I still read ANN reviews from time to time so that I can take incredibly lazy potshots at them. Here's a couple. First up, from the Psycho Pass review:
Now, call me crazy but I'd assume that when an editor reads that he or she would probably try and make sure that 'stale' isn't used twice in the same paragraph.
From the Blast of Tempest review:
Are those the words that you're going to reference when discussing Ando? You're making duckroll cry.

If we're counting HxH which started in 2011, might as well also include Toriko too.

black rabbit sexy legs.
who's mayaka again? Oh yeah... she's ok... but that whole manga club soup opera thing was dumb.
How is Toriko anime sales doing? I do wish the show had more budget.

Great episode.
Great episode.
The episode's Brian Jay theme made it pretty clear Hibito wouldn't actually die, but it was effective nonetheless. Though I couldn't help but think about how the guy would suffer from a ton of brain damage from that oxygen deprivation.

The fact that you mention this is particularly hilarious, because look what just showed up in my GAF adspace:
The curse of Bandai being out-of-print, I guess.
Seraphis Cain
bad gameplay lol

Finally, a GAF ad relevant to my interests:
You mean you havent bought it already?
It certainly beats pulling something from the inexhaustible barrel of cornball taglines. I kind of regret not being able to buy this right away now.

Yes, I'd especially recommend the Anime World Order podcast although Dynamite in the Brain is a pleasant listen. I went back and literally listened to every AWO podcast they ever, did some of which are like three hours long. I don't normally do that for podcasts!
The ANN site Blood-C skin sidebar had one of those taglines IIRC, but it's not showing for me anymore.

I mean, I had figures that there was no point in them making re-making the Golden Age if they weren't going to eventually move on to the rest of the manga but this is still a little disappointing. It means there's never going to be good-looking adaptation of the rest of the work because these jokers are going to be making it.
Maybe by the time they get to the next movies they'll have had so much practive they'll actually start looking good. And maybe they just weren't giving it their full effort since these first three movies are just retreads. Surely it's possible the next films will start looking pretty good...
Didn't the announce at the start that they were going to adapt all of it? Or am I remembering wrong?
Sailor Moon 44
Sunspot activity is getting stronger,
After lots of searching, Luna and Artemis
Well that whole episode is pretty much a spoiler so I played it safe.
It looks like the next episode is THAT EPISODE.
an episode I have heard about and seen a severely butchered version of, but I'm looking forward to seeing the real uncut version. I have a vague idea of what happens, but the events were cut so short they had no meaning or emotion at all. It will be interesting to see the real thing after all these years.
Sunspot activity is getting stronger,
which activates Queen Metallia's power.
find the opening leading to the Dark Kingdom.
The senshi join up and head into the darkness.
The senshi join up and head into the darkness.
They fall into a trap by Kunzite, who transports them into the past, where they learn about the Moon Kingdom and their origins. There was a great battle between the evil people from Earth and the Moon kingdom. queen Metallia created a great Youma and killed endymion and Princess Serenity, but Queen Serenity summoned the full power of the silver crystal and killed the great youma. With her last strength she released the senshi to Earth so they could live in peace before she died.
Meanwhile, the two cats locate the entrance to the kingdom in the arctic snow. The Senshi complete the fall and land near the arctic area, where Kunzite is harming Luna and Artemis. He then turns on the Senshi to attack. They attempt to protect Sailor moon but are stunned by his attacks. Sailor Moon summons the great power of the Moon wand and deflects a deadly shot by Kunzite, which comes back to him and kills him.
The cats are finally able to report where the entrance is and the Senshi vow to punish the Dark Kingdom once and for all.
