idk if i'm the only one who is buying the physical releases on here, but if you want in on those they're only making 2000 BDs for each volume (releasing one volume every 2 months till Dec. I believe; vol. 2 is in April), and I have number 1316/2000.

Looks like I really need to watch Yami. Actually, I should really get going on The List, too.
Booty had me like
"Fanservice? What fanservice!?"

I see I came into the thread at a good time.
why is it so limited? That sucks.

Valerian and Laureline 1
In the past, everyone was British. Even the French. Especially the French.
So Valerian,
Seems like a fun show. There's a certain old-school feel to it that I like, probably because it's based on a comic from the 60s.
In other sci-fi news, I was looking at starting up another long-running anime soonish and I was thinking about either Galaxy Express 999 or LoGH. Any recommendations?

So Valerian,
not only did you take a girl from the past, but you lost the earth. I don't think it's actually possible to screw up more than that.

Not sure, outside of general interest of course, but each copy is labeled with a number too!
It's like $55 a volume with shipping (volume 6 will be a premium version, whatever that entails), and i'm going all-in for all of it because it's a damn good show and well worth the money imo.
I wonder how many people here actually know Yuki's warp scene in 2199 is a homage to the original warp scene. lol

Isn't that all anime?
This is an import or just companies being crazy?

Well, one hand you're dangerous crazy, but hardly alone in your craziness! See here: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=173356
Mmm, the direction, the soundtrack, the animation, the action, the cast, the 4K HD scan, the 3 year wait for the final episode. Basically everything. So good.

It's more lewd when he/she posts them.
Just because I run around naked with lucky charms all over my body and junk as I scream 'I'm magically delicious' does not mean I'm crazy

Strike the Blood 24 END
Man am I ever glad this is over. I think this show can take the largest part of the blame for my current "completely burned out on anime" state. Every week I had to almost force myself to watch it. The thing is, it wouldn't have been nearly as bad as it was had it been a one-cour show. Virtually every arc felt exactly the same as the last one, and it just got terribly repetitive and boring after the first half.
Anyway, just go read R_thanatos' post on the finale/series as a whole. He basically sums my feelings up better than I could.
Also, harem ranking:
1. La Folia
2. Who gives a shit

I'm sure he'd make the perfect Chairman for the inevitable Hollywood adaptation of Prison School.
It's what Voyager Entertainment wanted to do, I guess. I'm not familiar with them nor the general history of the Yamato series licensing in North America, so you'll have to find someone who is.

Looking at the voting is kind of interesting. Who knew Branduil liked Haruhi so much? Or Duckroll and Scrapped Princess? Oh wait, Bones.
Is Scrapped Princess actually that good?
They aspire to be aniplex.
They licensed it over here for this really limited release. From their standpoint, i'd say the pricing is relatively fair, especially considering the history of the Yamato name.
Either way though, I think it's a great value for the show contained within. I sure as hell liked it enough to go through with getting them all.
edit: And what Arti said too.
Scrapped Princess is pretty good.

Episode 1 is the worst episode.

Squuuuuuuuueeeeeeeeeeee
hnnnnnnngggghhhh
I honestly enjoyed this entire show. Everything was really fun and enjoyable. The cast was nice and diverse, I liked each of the story arcs, and the mythos and world setting were all interesting. Kojou was likable, the music was great, and the voice acting was great too.
Plus, this is one of the few shows where I really felt like every girl was the best girl, and I mean it!
Really loved this one.

he has kids with both Himeragi and Asagi!

You know considering there's been anime made of a bunch of superheroes, I'd love to have a proper spiderman anime series. Stan Lee can appear again like he did in Hero Man
I can only ask what took you so long.
Jexhius is right; it only gets better from the start.
Scrapped Princess isn't really worth remembering. It was decent if not dry before the genre shift made things rather silly.
Black Lion, however, is!

A better love story than Chuunibyou.
Also, god-tier OP and ED.
Pretty good show overall. Here's hoping for an OVA (or second season, but I'm trying to be realistic here :lol).

No you wouldn't because those all sucked! Apart from X-Men. And even then Japan did a better X-men over a decade ago with those sweet openings: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2rSw4Xl5qfs
Obligatory: FIVE TONE SHADING
Just go watch Spectacular Spiderman. Unless you've already seen it in which case watch again because it would probably be better than any Spiderman Anime unless they got TOP talent on it.
Also glad to see you enjoyed GTO though I would have figured you were the type of guy to have already read/watched it

One more episode each of Sekai Seifuku and Seki-kun, and I am done with anime for a good long while (except for Puchimas). I feel like I really need this break. It's only been about 16 or 17 months that I've been back into anime (got back in around the time Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun was airing), but I've watched so much in that time. It really does feel like it's been a lot longer.
I definitely disagree regarding Scrapped Princess.

Sorry but no. We all know the superior WARA NANANA NAAA NAA WARA NA NA NAAAAAA NANA can't be beat.

The day they cancelled Spectacular Spiderman i wept for humanity. My innocence died that day. And then they brought that shittier spiderman show I never bothered to watch. Also I wonder if anybody I know ever watched that weird Mtv spiderman show. The cell shaded one.
As to GTO, I had been pushing it off for a while now.
Then why didn't you stop?
That said I will say, most of the arcs in the second half were fairly uninteresting. Of course that glimpse of the future has me intrigued enough to want to find the light novels. At least to find out if more of that is shown there.

I suppose that opening is useful for children who need help remembering the names of the X-Men.
Marvel does that a lot. They did the same with Earth Mightiest Heroes. Cancelled that great show to put out a crappy new show thats more like the shitty live action Marvel-verse.

I don't like to drop shows if I'm further along than 5-6 episodes in, and it wasn't until the latter half that I stopped enjoying it.
