As long as I get some context for the gifs I'll be happy
That is of course our intentions, little mascot-kun.
That's right. For example. Oshii is obviously trying to be "immersive" when he does those city montages, and it works. And that's great -- he's trying to give you a context of another place and time.
But I don't think Shinbo is trying to be "immersive" in... anything. And that's okay too.

To be fair - I might differ from pizzaroll on this; but relating "text' to your own personal life or reality is a perfectly valid way of evaluating art, but it's not the only way. More or less, any piece of text should be evaluated on it's own merits, and good art doesn't have to say something about our own personal lives or world to be meaningful.
I guess it's because there was a break before hand but I found the Kintama acr a bit disappointing. Good beginning and end but it waned in the middle.
A racing episode and not a single CGI car in sight. Other animation studios, are you even trying?
And this is why Haruka x Chihaya is OTP.
Yeah. I could listen to them talk forever. Though I guess could have done with less explaining sometimes, but hey I guess at least in theory a wide audience needs to understand it.
Does it also include the giant stick up your ass?
W-where did you find my pizzaroll fanfiction?
Manipulate his opinion through gifs eh?
Kind of funny since in the UK media studies is looked down upon.
Can't you change it at anytime? My display name is a cross between this and my real name just so people from either world can recognise who I am. There are some people on GAF who even know what all four letters mean.

Good man.
So we can agree I captured his likeness right.
Oh and good things come to those who wait.
Hmm, it does seem rather accurate, yes!

Man, they crammed so many special appeals into this episode that I completely lost count. It seems they've finally started to build some overarching plot as they introduced both the "Legendary" idols that can overcome the three-special-appeal-limit and it's hinted that
Well, I guess they gotta make this thing last 50+ episodes somehow.
Surely I'm not the only one still watching this, right?

Ichigo's mother may have been an idol in the past.

holy shit
inferno cop, bringing cultures together~Inferno Cock - Episode 8 or something
Why was the next episode preview in Mandarin this time?!
Well, to be fair, that's the one by the sister group to AKB48, where the anime theme is only the B-side single, so of course it's going to sell like crazy.

I liked how they were trying to make a realistic reference to GDC with the game designer talking about going to San Francisco for a game conference, but that's usually not until March and the story's still somewhere in mid-late February, I think... points for the effort, though.
This should mark the end of LN volume 5, I believe. Ten are planned in total, with only eight currently released, so we're far enough behind that I'm not expecting a satisfying conclusion for the anime.
Well, the older version of the model worked because it involved just breaking even on the weeklies, then taking the rest as pure profit. Taking losses up front then maybe breaking even later maybe a little more just doesn't do it.
Surely I'm not the only one still watching this, right?
I watch it (it's an idol cartoon, so I feel obligated to), but there's not really a whole lot to say about it on a weekly basis...
Following some recommendations from you, I've been watching Gintama, Baccano (awesome), Level E... now I'm watching Gundam Turn A
Gundam Turn A 18
There are so many absurd things going on here. People switching factions, the "disguises"...

I'm ok with Kihel and Dianna Soriel switching since they are identical, but still, it is weird how they manage to act exactly like the other one...
But the thing going on with Loran/Laura Rora makes no sense. First Guin calling him Laura, just because. Then they use it for the plot's advantage (I guess) and Loran disguises himself so they don't know who is the pilot... The thing is, he never suggests it, it is always Guin who is not aware he's moonrace! (at least in the beginning).
After everyone knows he's moonrace, they just keep on it so Loran can wear woman clothes once in a while :O .

One hour until the GitS:SAC Online game presentation starts, and 90 mins until the GitS Arise conference starts!

It's like The Phantom Menace except it's actually good!
What's driving up the costs of publishing weeklies now as opposed to then? Or is it just less subscribers?
Most likely its less people buying the magazines. Manga magazines used to be a good way to kill time on trains and stuff but with the advent of smartphones, handhelds, whatever, there's really no reason to buy one nowadays.
Wow, the mecha for Majestic Prince have pretty interesting designs: http://mjp-anime.jp/12mecha/index.html
Hopefully Orange is going to do interesting CG animations here like they did for Akito. Considering how they're credited for co-production of the series, this could be their moment to shine.

Manga subscriptions aren't really a thing. Newsstands and kiosks are king, or at least used to be.
That really doesn't seem like an unfixable situation, but I guess it's more fun to drag feet.

Comparing anything to the phantom menace is doing it a disservice. Then again...
Space Hippies = JarJar binks. Except they redeem themselves!
What's exciting is that the mecha designer for the main faction mechs (shown here) is someone who seems to have not worked on other anime: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/people.php?id=116565
There are two more designers for the other different factions as well:
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/people.php?id=8159
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/people.php?id=1368
It'll be interesting to see how different they look. Come, join me and embrace a better CG future!
People buy the latest One Piece though! If you see someone on a train reading manga, there's a 75% chance they're reading One Piece.

I find the lack of commentary on episode 33-34 by your part very clever.
Oh man, it sounds like the end of Eva (TV) all over again. Can't wait.

I grabbed Code Geass: Akito the Exiled on BD a few weeks back and jeezus it looks beautiful on a good screen. I was pausing at random intervals just to look at the details or a dynamic composition.
I'm totally rooting for Orange at this point.
Also, Gundam Turn A is one of the weirdest things I've ever watched. I just couldn't pull away from it, despite the fact that there was nothing about it that was particularly exciting.

Well now, that was one hell of an :sdburton and :cuilan valentines special. Maybe it's just me but the CG parts seem way easier on the eyes than they use to, I'm kinda worried I've suffered some CG induced brain damage now.

Ahh, that makes sense.
Fair enough.
Declining sales of the weekly mags.
My guess? Cannon fodder.
They're the same mech their respective quote boxes. I think there's some mecha-in-mecha thing going on for the two Forward mechs. So those are the base frames, and then they power up with some "link" system and get the larger assault suits.
This tells me I should be expecting some gattai porn, and that's what I'll be doing until this airs.
Now, the human characters are certainly more worrying...

Can I still say the word generic without sounding like a bad video game journalist? Cause those mechs are super generic.
