Ah, youth. One day you'll realize only 10% of posts are worth reading and the rest is noise you can harmlessly filter out.
Much like anime.

Mad Bull 34 is eighties awesome.
Code Geass is awesome.
Yami is boring bad, not good bad.
School Days is a genuinely good anime that every fan of literature should watch.

Greatest love story ever told.
I'm a fan of literature and I hate School Days.
I was just citing things from the list.

Luckily, I don't think it pays. You can't go making a career out of it.

I know it's not very practical or necessary, but I end up doing it anyway. I spend way more time reading this thread than I do actually watching anime.
Have you read La Celestina? It was the School Days of its time, truly. Nowadays it's canonical for Spanish literature. Goes to show that these things aren't exclusive to anime.
I thought you didn't like reading!

The dub is not so bad its good. Its so good it elevates a boring worthless kids show into a hilarious comedy.
Scholastic reading is often times different from enjoyable reading.
Whoa, how did Blood C not make the list!!
Thanks. I read yours too.

Because it's good-good, not bad-good.
I like creme caramel but I hate being shot in the face.

Because Blood-C is the comedy of our lives.

Ghost Stories dub isn't really 'so bad it's good'. It's a parody dub, doing exactly what it set out to do.
I think the vast majority of us are like that.
I'm not sure. Its even sitting on my desk here right in front of me.
I suppose a lapse in judgement/memory.
Tetsuwan Birdy: Decode S2 3 - 5
Still better than S1. The main plot is developing nicely, and we have more cyberpunk and sci-fi themes, along with more Birdy herself.
Shenanigans have been kept to a minimum for the most part, but the entire latter half of episode 5 focused on Senkawa actually occupying Birdy's body as her consciousness lay dormant, forcing him to play an idol, sign autographs, attend a photo shoot, be on some kind of TV show, and entertain his friends. He also played with Birdy's underpants and visited a spaceship.
Well okay... I'm sure we'll get back on track as there is much to discuss. However the plot (while an improvement) still seems paper thin. The audience already knows who did what, while the bad-guys ponder idly. It doesn't feel as though there is a lot of tension from the audience's point of view, but the show continues to be handled far better than it ever was.

I dropped it half way through the first episode, not because I though it looked rougher than some of their other shows (although it undoubtedly did) but because I had no interest in the characters or premise. Therefore I can't really speak to the show as a whole and I never paid close enough attention to the series to notice anyone complain about it from a production standpoint. However I will certainly take your word for it.
No it's just really really good.
Neat. Will pre-order.
Blegh. I guess I can't expect too much. Will buy when it's on the cheap.
Oh, really? I don't know much about Arjuna, but I was under the impression that people respected it.

I'd put Blood C in the same category as Code Geass where the creators just went "fuck it" at the halfway point.
Shouldn't it be that because it originally wasn't meant to be a comedy put it in the bad-good category?
I read all your posts especially. Never miss one. Too much value.

I don't know. It seemed pretty deliberate vs all the massive trolling going on from out of nowhere. in Geass

Yes, and it's called Toradora!

It was directed by a man known for his comedies. Totally good good.
Well I'm obviously the most entertaining member! So it would be impossible for anyone to filter my posts!

The creators of Blood-C knew exactly what they were doing from the moment it started.
Starting from about three episodes before the end of season 1, the writers of Code Geass decided that if Sunrise was gonna make them write another season, they may as well go balls out all the time.

This is terrible?
That's not very convincing. Clotheslining someone with a bracelet is pretty bad.

Code Geass is schlock with tons of money put behind it. If that's considered bad then I don't wanna be good.
