Vivid Red 5
-No henshin
-No Docking
-No action
What the fuck, Takamura!? it was going so well too... I hope the show recovers for the next episode and brings back the fun.
Although I can still enjoy the super genkiness of Akane. As for today's featured character, she seems to have an interesting BACKSTORY. My only hope is that the crow is 100% evil and everything is played straight, focusing on style and action.
Last week's episode was so much better storyboarded and animated too... well, I can't expect everyone to be Trigger.

Niiiiiice.
Fans feel clever when they get references, so why not make them happy with some really easy ones?
I thought this episode was Trigger's one, not eps 4.. I guess I got it wrong.
Psycho Pass 16
Noooooooo!
?
I get the feeling I was supposed to be shocked by
but I kinda just went "yeah sure, okay" instead.
Robotics;Notes 16
Noooooooo!
?
I'll tell you if I think
if you can beat me in a game of Kill Balad.
Man,
Noooooooo!
Not that one dude! What was his name, again
I get the feeling I was supposed to be shocked by
the robot boss lady reveal
Robotics;Notes 16
Noooooooo!
Not the lady with the robolegs! What was the point of her character, again
I'll tell you if I think
wether Subaru is really dead too or not
Man,
poor side characters no one ever really cared about are getting offed left and right between these two shows.
Remember when Noitamina was good? Not even Pepperidge Farm does.
Looks like spring 2012 was one last gasp of glory rather than a revival. newtaminA reigns supreme.
"Tomaru: Weve got lots of fun ahead of us."
holy fuck. this is true evil
Just read the legitimately great manga instead.
NOT
CANON *waves anal retentive nerd finger around*
Silver Spoon. oldtaminA will rise again.
aww hell nah

Oh hey, I understand nerd pandering. White nerds have been tricked by Community, The Big Bang Theory, and Edgar Wright films for a while now.
I don't know why, but this particular reference just felt way beyond the pale.
Not as bad as this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQYwFND7rHE
But pretty close. lol
One show after they just run reruns for a whole season. It's going to need more than that.
Just wait for the March Lion announcement.

Yes, some shit went down.
They were probably pretty important too. But, they were mostly left in the dust since there was no real build up towards any of them outside of this episode. I guess at least I want to see the aftermath now too.

I just looked it up, and the Sacred Blacksmith is also a Media Factory book, so this isn't really that different.
Yeah, Community is a lot worse.

Vividred Operation 5
So Reimu
and it turns out she's not a bad person despite possibly killing people due to her leveling up the Alones. Dull episode overall, hope to see more fights next episode.
HomuHomu. Rei Rei.
So Reimu
is from some alternate world apparently and signed a contract with Crowby

Your favourite show is shit. SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT. And so on.
Yep, MS is also a major sponsor. Bing it on your Windows 8 Phone!
It's still skeevy either way.

I always end up thinking I'm a boobs man, but shows like Vividred always make me realize my true love for legs and butts.
I don't understand the laugh. Did you think it was more predictable, or are you simply amused by the plot point? And I'm not even sure if that's correct anyway; it's just my guess.
It's just so unbelievable. I can maybe buy a fat guy singing the praises of Subway, but no one in history has ever said "Bing it" with a straight face.
I told you the first episode gives a false impression of the show.
More teasing from Thomas Romain:
And perhaps a few hints at when shows like Space Dandy will be airing?@Thomasintokyo said:
The airing one is AKB0048 S2, but I forget what all the other stuff he's got lined up is besides SD and Symphgear S2.@Thomasintokyo said:
Its impossible to stry a boobs man, when confronted with such Beauty. Plus once you realize the perfection that is huge ass, flat chest. Its all over. Its only a mater of time before you

One thing that I really forgot to mention yesterday when I made my earlier post was that Mochizō feels like your typical neutered male in a KyoAni show. Which is to say that he seems rather unconcerned with things that a typical teenage male is concerned with. To wit, when he fantasies about Tamako we see this:
Rather than some kind of erotically charged fantasy. Not that I'd expect to see that in a KyoAni show but it just demonstrates how far removed Mochizō is from any kind of believable teenage boy. There are other signs that Mochizō isn't a particularly realistic character, I mean, just check out his room:
Now I don't know how often KyoAni staff have been into the rooms of teenage males but I can assure that the vast, vast majority of them do not look like this. The organisation, the layout, the items he has in there, the train track? They don't seem to have any trouble creating a realistic girls room but this space just doesn't ring true. Where's the mess? The tacky posters? Etc etc.
Still, this wasn't a particularly good episode anyway. The bird, as usual, provided some of the best scenes in the episode but even his gags got recycle multiple times towards the end of the episode. Disappointing.

It's always a supernatural problem. Always.
A lot scaled down in infodump and action this episode. More antics I guess, but since it was lacking in the in your face mythology, I wasn't all that interested.

Not all teenage boys have shitty rooms. I was one of those neat organized people just because it's how I function. I never had a train track mind you.
Maybe I wasn't normal :/

I just think it would be hilarious if the power was coming from an alternate dimension and it would also mean I'm probably watching too much anime ;_;

Are you sure you're not just thinking of yourself here?

I'm not saying that all boys rooms are messy. I happen to like being tidy, for instance. From experience, however, I'd say that quite a few are.
However I doubt Mochizō's room is tidy and neat because we're supposed to think that tells us something about his character, he doesn't seem to have it all together anyway. It just seems to indicate that the people making this show aren't familiar with how (most) of those rooms look like. It's not even just the neatness either. It's the furniture arrangement, the choice of desecrations, the way everything is laid out - it just feels off.

Really enjoyed this episode. Nice action sequences and revelations. I still don't understand how there are still 6 episodes remaining.
