Don't think so. There was no reason given to the delay and speculation ranges from the author is making changes to extend this series even more, possible reaction from the anime or he's a hack and can't choose a damn ending.

Yes. This one.
I've gone back and forth in getting this over and over.
Are there even any good mecha in the game? They put bottom tier Gundam shows.

Oh great. So season 3 with more delays to make Pet Girl look like Shakespeare? lol
Aura Battler Dunbine.
I'm honestly getting this 90% because of the cool design on the system. The other 10% is because I heard it had a subunit system and I really enjoy playing that.
I'll have to get around to checking out Dunbine some day. I was pretty underwhelmed by the series list, though.
Me too which was why I cancelled my initial preorder. This really smells of the standard Nintendo handheld crappy cash-in without even giving us any of the quirky shit like putting FMP in.
Ryuukan showed me the new Harvest Moon game, however, and my resolve broke down ;_;

I think the artbook just got pushed back a few weeks while the next LN volume 'indefinitely'. The word choice is definitely of interest.
Don't remind me that I'll never get another SRW with FMP again. It's been hard enough coming to terms with the fact that we'll never get another season of anime, and that the manga is taking a right long time.
Mecha that changed my life was The Big O. Man, now THERE was a good mecha show.

If you were to skip everything in Eva that is repeat footage, you'd end up skipping half of the series. Pretty much the only thing actually worth skipping is most of that death/rebirth movie.
I got almost halfway through Ideon, everyone in that show is fucking unbearable. Even moreso than gundam. You get babies crying and then the slightly older babies whining at the younger ones to shut up. Fucking afros.
Another is the one set AFTER the series, right? And I know the LN's are over, but maybe when the Manga ends in the not-so-distant future they'll just adapt the whole thing into one-to-two more seasons and reward us all for patiently waiting.
If a SRW came out with FMP sigma on it, I would buy whatever system it was for.
Thiis is the School Days of Mechas, ain't nothing till you watch this.
Yes, it happens AFTER FMP ends. If the recent trend of anime being marketing vehicles for the manga/LN is any indication, there is a better chance of Another getting adapted than real FMP. Which makes me sad.
I will troll all of you whenever it happens btw.
I'll say FMP IS GETTING A NEW ANIME and then hide the Another info somewhere in the post.

I don't care about how it ends, it's fucking horrible! And it's 40 episodes and 2 movies!! Does it even pick up at all before the second movie? I'll finish it one day but damn. Tomino made some real shit in his day.
Speaking of School Days and Mechas, you should take note that the director of Majestic Prince also directed School Days!

Oh shit, anime is saved.
The second half are more "entertaining", if that help you.
Neon Genesis Evangelion 14-15
The first half of episode 14 was recap, but I didn't mind watching it much. It more or less took the moments of great animation and weaved them together pretty succinctly. The second half was worth watching just for some notable interactions between Seele, Nerv and "Marduk"(?) and sort of set the stage for how they felt about each other.
Speaking of that, taking the end of 15 into account, it's looking more and more like Nerv, at their core, are the bad guys in all this. It's a relatively easy conclusion to draw, so it might not necessarily be the right one, but one I'm supposed to probably feel as a viewer right now. Wont look into it any more than that.
Just excited to get into the next episode since it seems like big stuff is right around the corner. I also think I am now into the territory where I am completely blind. I have no idea what happens next!

Am I missing something really obvious? I thought the director of School Days was directing Date a Live.
Edit: Oh, he's probably directing both. Lol, I don't know why that possibility didn't occur to me.

Yea he's definitely in asshole territory. A Niceboat ending would be so good. So good.

In lieu of my impending hiatus from girls being cute anime, I'm thinking of going all-out on magical girl anime. More Sailor Moon, Pretty Cure, Doremi, etc., distill that shit into its purest form and hook it into my veins.
Does Princess Tutu count as magical girl, or is it something else?

Best Infinite Stratos.
Princess Tutu is exactly the next thing you should watch. Its not cute girls being cute. Its cute girls being AWESOME. And ballet too.
Ill let a picture explain it. I think Hito dug this one up before

All I know about Ideon is that

I don't know if it is possible for you to hurt me more than that. Like, maybe if you said "AGE is getting two more seasons!" but otherwise, no.
Hyouka 15 (Rewatch)
After the incredible episode 14, it was impossible that the next episode would top it, but this one is still really good. The show (and most importantly, Oreki) start delving into the mystery of Juumoji's thefts, but even if that's the main focus of the episode, the festival is still going strong in the backgrounds, side characters and props scattered throughout every place of the setting.
This time around, I noticed the egregious amount of foreshadowing and clues that are present in here, but presented in a very nonchalant way that makes them easy to forget. Like Oreki checking the website and seeing the online shop, or him taking particular notice of the fact that the Classics club might not be the final target.
Animation DO was again in charge of this episode, with Hiroko Utsumi and Miku Kadowaki returning again to deliver a very pleasant experience. I really like some gags, like these two:
Meanwhile, the personal stories of each of the members continue developing, this time with a nice focus on Chitanda and her failure to be Irisu, lol. The interactions between the main cast and their alloted side-characters were more pronounced this time, with Satoshi being openly dismissive of hair-kun or the atmosphere at the manga club getting more heated. There was also Chitanda's dream-sequence with Tougaito, which was a nice touch that had been missing from the last couple of episodes (same for that Oreki pose thing).
In fact, I'm noticing that Animation DO's episodes tend to be a tiny bit more flamboyant with the animation, making the characters move energetically and a lot of the times in a snappier way than the main studio. I have to say I really like their style, and can't wait to get to episode 21.
I have taken quite a liking to the second OP. The song's nothing special but I like how deliberately obvious the concept of it is. It's also creative in a way a lot of anime OPs are not, and plays with the kinda stuff that the show often depicts in its episodes.
I have one gripe with it though: This sequence would work much better if it was fully animated with inbetweens. In fact, it would work so much better that it would be the best part of the OP, but it isn't due to the weird decision of leaving it like that.

Where they stem from the framing, or Tougaito's reaction to Oreki being mentioned which is funny due to the expression he makes.

I'm going to watch it. I had already decided on that. Good stuff, though it didn't really answer my question, but I suppose it doesn't really matter.

That just got higher on my backlog. And with that in mind, Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha and its second season A's is exactly that as well and I couldn't recommend them (Well, A's mostly) any harder.
Age getting two seasons wouldn't be as bad because you can always ignore it.
Another getting anime adapted would be like getting stabbed in the back after getting kicked in the balls.

[You Are Umasou] (Rewatch)
The plot is fairly by the books after considering this aspect --you would think this was a Disney movie were it not for the character designs and the fact that it is not available in English. Even so, I was surprised by how ruthless its depiction of the circle of life was. There's nearly no blood, but the film takes no real sides regarding whether the carnivores are good or bad solely because of their meat-eating. A lesser movie would have had
Umasou's adherence to ecological facts is refreshing in comparison!
My only problem with the film involves the climax:
I can forgive it, however, because the movie goes for an almost "slice-of-life"-esque approach the moment Umasou gets introduced. The comedic and parenting portions of the movie are probably the most important regarding Heart's character growth, which is clearly the focus. Also, Umasou is adorable (dinosaur moé!).
Two years later verdict: Still a 5 out of 5. It has fighting dinosaurs, breakdancing dinosaurs, jerk dinosaurs, moé dinosaurs, all types of dinosaurs! And even if you don't like dinosaurs (what the fuck is wrong with you?) it's a really good story about what being a parent entails, as well as the importance of finding one's path in life regardless of the prejudices. Watch it.
Not we verdict: Sister thought it was weird, Pops fell asleep after the first fight, and Mom loved it even though she's not used to reading subtitles in English.
Best anime of 2010 is still the best anime of 2010. You Are Umasou is a story about a carnivore raised by herbivores and his existential crisis towards coming to terms with his true nature. Along the way he will meet other dinosaurs, befriend them, become enemies with others, and more than anything, eat them. You don't get closer to the "fish out of water" trope than this.

Heart going full vegan or, in the case of some Dreamworks crap, have him eat solely fish because fish are apparently an inferior animal class.
My only problem with the film involves the climax:
the explosion of Egg Mountain and the way it brings every thread together could have been better foreshadowed, as using it as a way to have Heart come back to the forest and force a confrontation with Baku feels artificial because of its suddenness.
Before I go, I just wanna reiterate that this is a gorgeous film to watch. The animation is some of the best I've seen, taking full advantage of the relatively simple designs (somebody hook me up with the umasoubreakdance.gif), but the background art easily steals the light. Nearly every cut is brimming with colour, and some of the aerial shots in particular are mesmerising. The music is also serviceable, if slightly forgettable aside from the vocal tracks and the main leitmotif.

Another was that bad ? i kinda wanna ask what was bad about this anime ?
I agree. Although more for A's. A's ramped up everything to MAX.
I haven't checked out Another yet, because I don't technically know how FMP ends yet.
Its not actually bad but it being set AFTER the end of FMP then guarantees that there will never be FMP again, ever. We fans like to cling to whatever little hope we have.
