[Chet Rippo]

Can you name the anime openings from the last 20 years?

Old.

I haven't finished listening to it all, but I just wanted to say I can't believe they have Divergence Eve in there.

Since this is season 2 stuff spoiler , i'll spoiler the answer to your question.
Don't read it's Accel world S2 spoiler ( that is if another season get annonced one day )

Spoiler

The girl is actually ash roller IRL identity. It's complicated stuff but let's just say that she (real person) is a girl (shy personality) and the Player is a boy (ongoing and vulgar personality) the reason for this is know ( at the time of the oav , only sky raker knows about it ) and will be revealed in S2

Revolutionary Girl Utena 38

Spoiler

The castle isn't real, the dueling arena was Akio's observatory the whole time, Anthy stabbed Utena at the end of the episode, I don't know what's goin' on right now but I don't have time to talk about it time to finish this sucker.

 

[Jarmel]

So where is Kayos anyway?

Is the next episode also the last one?

[Regulus Tera]

Something I just noticed while watching episode 26 of Utena: Anthy's glasses disappear for a moment when she's

Spoiler

pulling the sword out of Utena's chest

. Continuity error or deliberate? I'm leaning towards the latter, seeing how that is the kind of stick footage that Ikuhara's would pay close attention to.

I got 32 of them.
Ive seen several more that I missed but the opening themes did not stick with me.

 

[Lain]

Oh, so 2 left to go? Thanks.

So where is Kayos anyway?

Peru. He's going to become a professional soccer player.

I guess the point I was trying to make was against the people composing the quiz more than the shows themselves because you can clearly draw a pattern from some of those shows and identify them. As for generic shows, that is levied more towards shows I guessed but had no recollection of whatsoever let alone of their OPs.

Spoiler

I also suspect that whoever made this used the MAL top anime list to get some of these too.

I suppose my original comment came off a bit nastier than I intended.

Ah, when you put it that way, I understand. Not every clip was from the hook/refrain/most memorable part of its song, which could have been intentional (and, in fact, the test states that it stacks the most memorable OPs toward the beginning of the quiz to lure you into a false sense of security - I definitely got owned by that) or a mere consequence of the fact that not every OP is particularly memorable--normally this is where I'd throw certain genres of J-music under the bus for all sounding alike, but I only missed the OP for one show that I'd watched to completion and only a handful for which I'd seen any at all so I have no grounds to criticize what I'm not familiar with.

And nah, I didn't think you were being nasty at all, I just thought you were criticizing the choice of shows rather than the audio clips themselves.

Except the importance of cold weather on immune response is highly overrated if not erroneous entirely. While it is true that hypothermia injures immune response, the data on whether exposure to cold air does the same is conflicting at best. Additional factors to consider are human behavior during cold weather in temperate zones or wet seasons in tropical zones and the impact of air conditions on virus survivability and transmission.

Biology always was my worst subject in school.

 

[Chet Rippo]

I haven't finished listening to it all, but I just wanted to say I can't believe they have Divergence Eve in there.

They also completely misspelled it too. I got about 8 out of it all, and 3 of them I haven't even actually seen before. lol
There wasn't any K-ON! OPs in there either so this quiz sucks.

 

[R_thanatos]

So where is Kayos anyway?

I remember saying he was going in training mode ...

Made he'll return when we'll reach OT +8

Kayos90 has evolved into Kayos91 !

Can't wait to see the results of his training.

Mobile Fighter G Gundam 14

Man, Gundam 00 WISHES it could write plot twists as emotional and stunning as this episode. Master Asia is the bad guy? WHO'DA THUNK? Holy cow, I wasn't expecting to be so into this show, but really, this is shaping up to be the coolest Gundam show ever. Granted it's somewhat unfair because it's also the most unorthodox Gundam show ever.

 

[Pooya]

Peru. He's going to become a professional soccer player.

Hey, I may be a pervert, but that doesn't mean I'm a perverted molester!

Yeah, I was referring more to your general interest towards them based on the picture.

That was...emotionally exhausting, to say the very least. I think I'm gonna need some time to give anything more detailed than that. I just...wow. Sets up Adolescence well, though.

I think they bought him a house though.
wish I got my own house

 

[Chet Rippo]

Hehe, I know. Just need to get that out there!

 

[Charoncaori]

Oh man, I just got on the train home after wolf children and I just lost it at the end of the movie. I was crying my eyes out.
Spoilers:

Spoiler

I left my mom when I was that age, and she passed away last year. I appreciated how happy Hana was. It was really a happy ending but I still cried, heh.

I liked it a lot. I didn't get a signature but I got to say thanks, at least.

 

[Ultimadrago]

Oh shit, there's three more OVA episodes of iM@S that were bundled with the PSP games. This show keeps on giving!

And I am still much too behind!

Sooooo...... Any questions?

 

[jbug617]

Finished rewatching Papakiki. Glad they included the OVA on the DVD because the OVA had more Raika on it.

Next on the backlog will be Amagami SS. Amagami SS+ was suppose to come in the mail today but the Postman didn't bring it even though it says it was out for delivery. I hope my package isn't lost.

 

[Seraphis Cain]

The rankings are coming, Ultima, don't worry. I just want to finish these last two OVA episodes first.

 

[Syrinx]

Sooooo...... Any questions?

Not now. Maybe later, or maybe I should watch Adolescence first before I ask. Just, not now.

Spoiler

I'm still recovering from my nauseousness from the ending sequence before the part when Anthy told Akio to fuck off.

yeah Im kind of looking forward to this dvd.
it looks really cute.
I still have Kore wa zombie that I just started along with idolmaster xenoglossia.
my backlog is depressingly huge.

I live in London. What happened?

GAF met up and had themselves a good time. On a personal level I won the laser zone and once again was king of the groove.

I can't believe Kyosuke flew to America just to bring that bitch back home. Is he crazy? I would have just eloped with Kuroneko and lived forever as a king, knowing that I chose the best route. Every morning and day I would pray that Kirino is on the other side of the planet...

Fair warning, it's a retelling of the events rather than a linear continuation of them and doesn't really follow the same linearity. It also amps the symbolism up to 11 so you may be very very confused, especially if you try and identify it based on the series you just watched.
Edit: It doesn't attempt to explain the events of the series either but may give you some more perspective on certain characters.

That would be the smart thing to do and as an LN protagonist, that's one thing he can't do.

Just be aware that Adolescence is stand-alone from the series, so that will hardly answer any questions you have on it.

I don't think it's a retelling as much as another story featuring the same characters and some of the core themes. It's certainly not trying to do a Rebuild of Evangelion.

Won't have the time to watch it til next weekend, so I guess it's good I'm not watching it directly after.

Retelling? That's disappointing I guess. Though that is a good ending for the series I suppose.

...i gotta go ly dow.

I'm behind to.

 

[cajunator]

same here.
I blame it on Sentai and aniplex.

 

[Theonik]

I don't think it's a retro king as much as another story featuring the same characters and some of the core themes. It's certainly not trying to do a Rebuild of Evangelion.

Well yeah, it's not a retcon of sorts as it's meant to be independent from the series, but at the same time it's not an entirely different story with the same characters either. I guess an alternative universe version of the show would be accurate?

MSG0080:TWitP 3

The weird suburban tone of this show clashes quite a bit with the fact that two of its principal characters are pilots on opposite sides of the line. Still, the Bernie x Chris love story here is shaping up to be leaps and bounds ahead of the droll Shiro x Aina.

lmao. That's some Kingdom/GUNDOH levels of shit right here.

That can't be real.

max heart was made in a hurry because they didn't anticipate the first season sucess.
And they were pumping staff in the first movie as well when the terrible first 22 episodes were made.

So yeah the max heart season has some pacing, animation and story problems.

maybe I should just keep the memory of how awesome she was in Futari wa precure and not watch this.
