Clannad is the best out of all of them for its After Story. Like I said before, it has the same problem as GaoGaiGar, given that its sequel is something legit amazing while its predecessor is something fairly generic that some people are kind of "meh" about. But the After Story was worth it. SO SO worth it.
Speaking of romance anime, I got about halfway through Macross DYRL last night. My only complaint is that the character designs look kind of....weird at first (much like with many Clannad newcomers). But other than that, I feel like I'm watching a space opera made by 90s Disney. Like damn, this is pretty good. I'll finish the rest later today.

Tomino was the one who chose Imagawa to direct G Gundam too!
We are! We just tend to disagree on some waifus. ;_;
Et tu SDBurton?
I always figured Tomino was just really drunk and the universe took advantage of it that night.
World Conquest 12 + Final Thoughts
This show, if someone were to come across it out of research years down the line, would be an oddity, something that someone tried and it went. (Or it could turn into a big franchise, I don't know.) A future curio. And it's the future curios that have always been of interest to me, from the moment the character designs were revealed. The exact nature of what Kate is and what Galaktika is were never explained, but how they came to be is less important than where they are now.
And from the way Kate put it, her idea of conquest really has more to do with friendship. When you've lived for as long as she has, the one thing you'd want is to not be lonely. That puts the entire series into a different context. The finale was as goofy as everything else, with giant robots fighting squishy octopus things, and Kate finally doing her flip, but in the sense of finally separating Asuta from his dad, it got its emotional closure.
The show, like Samumenco, was something where you could never quite predict where it was going to go, but it was ambitious (if a little heavy handed on the smoking episode), and had interesting character designs and a weird sense of humor that I could get behind. Also one of my top five shows for the season, but the numbers are less important than the feelings.

World Conquest Treasure Club is going to New York! Please make this happen!
Kill off both? Wouldn't be much of a show then, would it.
It would open the Tsugumi path though...
EDIT: Yesss I was waiting for this end card

The show could go the superior Ruri route.

Yesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyes!!!
Oh my god this scene was fantastic.
Now THAT'S love! I loved how Mari tried to pull a Madoka by calling Mizuki over to join in on their "reunion" too. So alpha!
I'm sorry man! But Onodera da besssss!
Yesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyes!!!
Oh my god this scene was fantastic.
Regardless of the fact that Mari just barfed 5 minutes prior, Moe was still cool with tasting Mari's lips!!
I'm sorry man! But Onodera da besssss!
I'm pretty sure I had something close to Raku's reaction when
the key breaking
Pupipo! 15 END
Awww. That was a surprisingly emotional ending.
This was a great little show. Nice art, good humor, and some surprisingly dark and emotional bits. And unlike some shows, it was well-paced and suited to its format. Definitely one of the surprises of this season for me. I was expecting a fluffy, cutesy little show and got something a lot better!

Legend of Galactic Heroes episode 82
Such fucking bullshit.
Such fucking bullshit.
After all he went through, Yang dies from a single shot in the leg from a Terraist mook? wtf. It's like they were trying for him to have the most shameful death possible :/
RIP LOGH's best character

Melting my brain that Tomino had this kind of foresight.

bad gameplay lol

I have no idea what I just watched. I literally have no idea what the hell just happened.
I almost want to say this show should be on THE LIST. But at the same time, it's seriously my anime of the season. I don't even know.

Please mark your spoilers carefully in future. There won't be another warning.

Is Space Brothers over? Or is it just on a production pause? Turned on Crunchyroll today to watch the latest episode and it wasn't there. Upon googling I'm getting both answers.

THE iDOLM@STER 04
This episode of course featured no Makoto which is normally bad but it did help me keep my screenshot count relatively low. Which is good. The next episode preview slayed me.
For a Takane episode it was actually Chihaya that stole the show this time. I can't stand to see her sad though. She just wants to sing and that sleazeball director/camera crew kinda made me mad. Also Aoi Tori <3 I must admit that me watching episode 26 early made this song more important than it normally would be. Though it's an awesome song and Chihaya has a great voice. Autotuned in this case or not.
Takane too good. That voice.

Sorry to do this. I'm sure you guys get this a lot, but now that Kill la Kill is over, I'm looking for something new to watch. Shows and movies that I've enjoyed: Cowboy Bebop, Gurren Lagann, Naruto (before the filler), Shinsekai Yori, Macross Plus, Macross Zero, Macross Frontier, Moyoshimon, Bartender, Millennium Actress, Wolf Children, Princess Mononoke. You can recommend anything from the last ten years. You're welcome to PM me if you'd like.
Wait. Did someone just compare Haruhiko Mikimoto's DYRL character designs to KEY art? /dead
Watch Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood

It's over for now, but it seems likely that they'll continue again once there is enough manga material to adapt. They are making a prequel movie too.

Alright. Thank you
I guess I'll remove it from my Queue on Crunchyroll for now then and put it back on later when it comes back.

Definitely interested in seeing Eccentric Family. Lain is...ok. Yamato wasn't bad either. I've seen a couple of episodes of Attack on Titan; was bored after the 5th or 6th episode. I'll look the rest. Thanks.

Bro there's no argument whatsoever. When a girl
is willing to kill herself if you die since life wouldn't be worth living without you there
Like how in Yami when Hazumi was willing to strangle Eve to death because if she couldn't live with her then she was better off murdering her because they couldn't be together but they could but they couldn't and that's just true love for you

Love that transcends life and death. Is there anything more pure?
