Maybe it's because I saw the edited version first, but I can't help but think the muscled version makes more sense in this context...

Utena came together quite nicely at the end.
While he has most certainly watched more shows than me, I doubt he'd know what that means. Well I suppose there's no harm in trying.
I never finished 0048

Zim's dead, man. I hate it even more than you do but it's time to move on.
There was a handshake event in the first series where the issue of the day was what to do with haters. Last episode also featured a handshaking event as part of the election arc.
And how I have over 100 posts perplexes me. Going to bed before it goes out of control.
There's been two episodes featuring handshake events. First introduced their crazy fans (who pilot mecha and fight for them), second involved the illegal co-opting of a member's imagery to sell soup or something. The center position stuff is the best. It's like a cursed position since Acchan disappeared in a puff of light all those years ago and they're just now bringing it back. Why? No one knows. The mystery of center nova drives my fascination.
Dream crushed.

Love Live - 03
Major props to the girls for
going ahead and performing at their basically empty concert.
revealed an empty audience I honestly thought we were going to be stuck with a 1-2 episode follow up of the girls trying to get back on their feet, because they looked absolutely crushed.
Anyway, solid episode. Hope their group rises in number soon.

This episode was really sweet, the show is certainly coming on its own now and is getting even more enjoyable now that more of the cast is introduced and we get more interactions between individual characters Shiori is pretty [REDACTED] and while the whole "shy character making friends with genki girls unexpectedly" is something that's been done a million times it didn't really affect my enjoyment of it especially when it's handled so well.

Think of it this way, the show is good enough you will not feel bad if you ever want to double-dip. And the BD volumes will be more expensive than that. Buy now and worry later!
Muscled version is best version.
and so is the rest of the god forsaken industry but you dont see me cryin...
It's ok. I was kinda disappointed with it the first time I saw it. Might revisit it sometime and see if I still feel that way.

Noir 10-11
Is shit finally starting to get real? Because it sure feels like it.
Yup.
Chloe is there and shits going to get really real.
Holy shit :lol
So do the anime girls beat the established characters?
Like, does she:
beat her:
in the election? Because that would be all kinds of inception if so :lol
The movie are Bebop's best episode for me.
You should wait a year or two after finishing the series before watch it though, like I do.
It's a lot of fun. Fantastic action, too.
havent seen noir since it first came out, but remember her being the best character

Tamako Market 3
As I was watching this episode and struggling to find a thematic link that connects the three episodes, I suddenly remembered a scene from episode 2:
And with the story about Shiori in this episode, it's starting to become clear that the show is about communication and human connections. Of course, overtly we see that with Tamako's relationship with the rest of the shop owners in the market, which is made manifest with the two "greeting" scenes that happen in episode 3, but we see it in many other ways as well.
And probably many more that I have completely forgotten. Of course, it's hard to pinpoint what the show is about, but maybe that serves to further this theme of communication and the difficulties that we have expressing ideas to other people.
At the very least, the show is starting to come together for me in a nice way... which is probably better than waiting 11(.5) episodes for Hyouka to come together and having Chuu2's premise be so transparent that I predicted that one of her parents is probably dead based strictly on the show description alone.
Random episode 3 notes:
This shot was such porn and made up for a lot of the money saving closeups that they used a few times in other scenes.
I swear there was a girl with half bangs in K-On!! I'm sure Chet would know for sure. lol
And speaking of other KyoAni shows, this is a moment that is basically ripped right out of
. In fact, the context and situation is exactly the same.
has to be a new thing now. Even though it doesn't happen all that often I suppose. lol

- Tamako searching for the song that her mother used to play for her
- The girls being in a baton club, which is a form of public communication (in a way).
- Dela's mission as an emissary between two worlds
- Dela's function as a tool of communication
- The video camera, and specifically the ad as an attempt to communicate with the rest of the world
- Putting on the bunny suits to advertise the shopping district locally
- The actual district meeting that starts off the whole campaign
- Mochizo's various attempts to communicate with Tamako
- Midori, if you want to buy into the whole fake-yuri thing
- Valentine's day and what it (at least in terms of the cliche) represents
- Shiori throughout this entire episode
- The class introductions, where you have to situate yourself in relation to your peers

No, in fact, every time you post in here you are crying about it.
Your memory has not failed you.
Those are called half bangs? Im a huge fan of half bangs in that case.

Hrm, maybe. I seem to remember someone in their class with a similar look though.

Well, in the real world, they sell "CDs" which ostensibly have a "single" on them with music and stuff. These CDs also contain a code for 1 vote in the election. You can imagine how crazy the otakus get for it.
The whole seated in multiple rows with the spotlights and everything that they show in the anime is exactly the same in real life.

GINTAMA 204
A pretty much 9/10 episode in terms of comedy ... and it was just standard gintama antics with the cast..
They even bothered to include their kids and the cast being married.. i guess the ideas for fillers can come from everywhere lol.
(Madao = famicom ) = WTF ( but it was a good joke ).
The second part was also nice, featuring some good vibes and jokes and stuff from the old serie filler.
Verdict : EXCELLENT
Serious business !

We don't know, only the 10th result is revealed so far. Watch and you will learn~
Edit: Well shit, beaten like kayos on IM@S ranking time.
After some examination of the class roster, I believe the person you're looking for might be Shizuka Kinoshita. Either her or Akane Satou.
Oh wait, this is basically a popularity poll with #1 getting the center position? Suddenly it all makes sense. I can imagine hardcore fans buying dozens of the CDs just for the votes.
It's really not though.

Ga Rei Zero Episode 1-2
Interesting so far. Really surprised me when
. Bit of an awkward scene in Ep 2 where it hangs on a scene for about 10 seconds with no movement whatsoever.
Angel Beats Episode 1-2
I'm not too keen on this. I haven't watched something from KEY before but I've heard that all their stuff becomes melodramatic near the end. That should be fun <_<

Group 4 is completely killed, as I thought that they would be the main characters

Hey while you're here, can I vote for Arashi no Yoru ni: Himitsu no Tomodachi in the AOTY thread? It's from this year but it's not on your list of eligible stuff.

This just makes it more painful that we aren't getting it over here. It looks so good.
lol dozens
Try thousands:
That's 1770 votes for a grand total of 2.8 million yen.
Its not just the "center" though. There's also the first 16 positions where the girls who get in, get to perform in the next single and do music shows and TV and stuff.

No, but the girl I was thinking about is there - Himeko!
It's sort of the same design... different hair colour. lol
I forgot that there was a biography of the entire class though. Where did you find it?
Ah yeah, that's fine. As long as the show was in 2012 it's fine even if it's not on the list yet; stuff like that must have slipped through the cracks when I made the big list. I've added it now too.
