As did I.
I should probably clarify that it's Origin I've not seen, as opposed to TGwLTT!
Well, that's the best possibly outcome!
I usually do make an effort to look through everything that goes along with an impression, but I guess I just got sloppy. Apologies.

Well, at least you read them.
Yep, that's been my issue as well.
K-On! started with easy-to-get-into humor with quickly-graspable character traits, and then went into realistic-ish slice-of-life mode later to flesh out the characters as human beings. Tamako Market skipped the initiation and jumped right into the latter.
I click your links, because I am often rewarded for doing so.
No, but it's getting cheaper!
Still not cheap.

QUEEN BLADE REBELLION TV - 11 & 12
AH AH AH what a ride .. this rebellion season was very intresting and quite thrilling at times and so silly ..
I'm glad they didn't pull the "friendship and teamwork" card for the finale but instead i got a "magnifique" turn of events that could have been a bad ending.
Still except the mirmir sequences , everything was so queen blade and quite enjoyable ...with a mention for the main character that managed to secure her harem in less than 8 episodes ..that's some fine work !!!
Visually this was mostly perfect with some so intresting animation both in the fighting and in the naughty scenes ..i guess a franchise like queen blade can afford this level of detail considering how everything sells.
QUEEN BLADE REBELLION TV VERDICT ( Season ) : EXCELLENT
i wonder if there is a sequel or an oav that i can watch to pass the time

I can't think of anything else like it in that regard.
Queen's Blade Rebellion is an actual honest-to-god yuri harem with a harem lead everyone fights over, rather than a bunch of separate pairings and friendships, or a simple trio like Lagrange.
Tell that to the mainlanders who import all their games from the UK.
anime fandom is not a cheap hobby.

Yeah, I was going to mention that by this point in K-ON! we already had a firm grasp on the main cast and their quirks, but I didn't want to keep bringing up K-ON! as a comparison. It's clear that you're supposed to be looking at the market from an outsider's perspective like Dera, but it doesn't feel like we're getting as accustomed to the market as much as the bird is at this point.
I only choose the best screens.
Good thing I don't make it into a hobby.
Poor cajunator. It's at least better than Amazon.co.jp.
I really should shop more at CDJapan again.

This is good stuff .. and it's also indeed the first time i see an anime treat the subject that way even in worlds without decent males in other works .
QB is innovating in areas i wasn't aware they needed a rebellion ! ( yuri lead, clothes animation ) and the production values were decently used .
I need another season
I hate these damn twins.
Are they very different from the normal twins?
Mr. Dezaki continuing after Mr. Tezuka to complete the task entrusted by the Vatican in The Bible Stories ('Historias de La Biblia', as it was know here in Spain for the TVE emission) is a quite epic story in itself. I remember seeing fragments of it a long time ago, but it is apparently still respected and shared by 'catequistas' around the country, so it must be a good adaptation for them!
Yeah, and 'Why didn't she ask EBA?' is even the subtitle of the second volume!

3 people told me to not watch it so ...well i can't recommand it
oh I think we're gonna have to disagree on this one little mascot-kun.
It was for Chihayafuru music. TOTALLY worth it! I'm listening to it now and life is good.

Does it present the Spanish inquisition as white knights of justice by any chance?

Probably the best three seconds of animation in this entire show.
I don't like this trend of pairing Chitose with Aoi. Surely Aida-kun is a better fit? Also, Chitose looks like Minako and we all know Sailor Venus has way higher standards.

A much more down-low episode. They did explain some things, just some things, introduced to a new god and a new girl. While it wasn't mostly words, they kept it at a good pace where you weren't drowned by it so that's good.

Well that depends on what you like and dislike about the Twins. The Puchis tend to have one basic characteristic and these two cheeky monkeys like to play pranks.
Cos they're in America innit. They should've asked the Ouendan like the rest of them.

Amusement park episode. Not much action, but some important stuff for future developments, like who Andy decides to ally with. Also some foreshadowing I wasn't expecting in a non-canon spin-off (or I assume it isn't canon).

The Bible doesn't cover up to that point in time.
Yeah. I was thinking that as well, because the last animation-related cover I remember from CUT was for The Borrower Arrietty (http://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B003Y7SQZW/), where Mr. Miyazaki also talked about possibilities for Porco Rosso: The Last Sortie, as an illustrated graphic novel continuation and all that. Then again, that was the time when said film was featured on other non-specialized, well-considered magazines like BRUTUS (http://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B003U7G9A0/), so links created by good promotion campaigns give more easy access to such mediums when you need them more.
Just searching for 'kayos90 twitter' gives away that information!
I don't know what I want to happen on this matter for that Mr. Takahata's movie; he is a kind of perfectionist that I'm sure could take advantage of that additional time, but above all I'm not sure it is a good idea putting the two upcoming films head-to-head on theaters... I think this delay could be a good thing for it.
That reminds me Manuel Cristóbal (Arrugas' film producer) paid a visit on March to Studio Ghibli, being received precisely by Mr. Takahata, Ignacio Ferreras' (Arrugas film director) role-model... and they didn't show him much more than backgrounds and imageboards! They sure keep the movie under wraps:

Today they announced an Amnesia fan event to be held in August, for which the tickets will be in the BD/DVD LEs for volume 1 and 2.
This had the somewhat predictable side-effect of immediately skyrocketing the Amazon preorder rankings of those volumes to varying degrees, with the volume 1 DVDs leaping from 5,903 into the top 100, and volume 2 going from 10,299 to 111.

Hopefully like Arcana Famiglia, they announce Amnesia is getting some bonus episode.
I want a US bluray release.

The most impressive thing about this show has to be how well-rounded it manages to make the accompanying cast in such a short time span. You really feel like Mayu-chan has gone from one place to another in the twenty or so minutes this lasts.
This episode was adorkable.

THE UNLIMITED - Hyoubu Kyousuke 05
Now have some almost fabulous cake.
A talky episode. Lots of background info being dropped, some cute moments for the loli and plenty of questions about the future.

It's OK. It's one of those shows which fully goes with Mr Tomino's habit of dropping people straight into the thick of things without ever actually stopping to adequately explain things, though, so whilst it's never quite as impenetrably obtuse as Brain Powerd can get at times, you've got to be willing to put up with being somewhat confused for a few episodes up front.
It's mostly just pretty fun, though - if it wasn't being weird about things, it'd be a pretty decent slice of undemanding fun, but some of the Tomino-isms just serve to rob it of the "undemanding" part. It's not that it's got any kind of actual depth to it, it's just that it actually demands attention to follow, even though it's mostly (somewhat deliberately) pretty dumb.
I dunno, though - it's one of those shows I, personally, got great entertainment out of watching, but at the same time I really can't put into words why I actually enjoyed it, and certainly can't give any kind of explanation that I could use to actually recommend it to someone.
