Holy shit, that's a huge dropoff for Chuu2.

Also poor Kate, sales not conquered. Too many filthy smokers in Japan.

 

[hat_hair]

Dokidoki was great all the way through.

This guy knows what's up.

To be honest, I thought Doki had its flaws, but so does every other Precure. I'm sure some people will start hating HaCha by the end as well.

Well hey, if we have a new Cure here, then I'm not complaining.

Of course, every Precure has it's flaw, granted, it's usually measured on how much said flaw effects us.

Spoiler

Unfortunately, given how it's marketed here.....

 

[Jarmel]

Inari-8

Oh god this is such heavy handed drama.

 

[MikeHattsu]

I'll probably get back on watching that too.

I have watched Kanon (06).

Ah, ok.

Edit: The first half of Air is pretty bad, but the second half is good. They try to cram too much into 12 episodes.

 

[Jarmel]

Oh god, this drama is Inari is so fucking awful.

Fucking anime.

 

[Admiral Woofington]

Oh god, this drama is Inari is so fucking awful.

Fucking anime.

Drop the show tbh. The resolution for the anime is crap. The upside for the manga is that after where the anime ends, it goes really deep into exploring Uka and Touma's evolving relationship. Though I've all but dropped the manga is I really don't care about inari and 'if you're having girl problems i feel bad for ya son, i got 99 problems but yuri aint one' issues. All I care about is Uka and Touma.

Spoiler

though recently Inari got a boyfriend so maybe they'll focus on those two again in the manga

Inari is the worst character on her own show due to her self loathing spats. The brother isn't much better but at least he has some chemistry with Uka so it's bearable.

If they both get season 2 it'll be great for me.

 

[Basileus777]

Inari is the worst character on her own show due to her self loathing spats. The brother isn't much better but at least he has some chemistry with Uka so it's bearable.

The ending ignores the brother and his relationship, so expect the disappointment to continue.

Mikakunin is amazing, but I still have to watch Love Lab, I have my eyes on her:

Surprising to see a bunch of dvd/sub only releases.

Wonder if Sentai's licensing everything under the sun is starting to bite back at them.

Works for me. Both shows are fun, but Mikakunin has been more so.

Fucking Otakus are lingerie. Maki has more personality than all the cast of Mikakunin.

I hope Buddycum and Gundam Build Fighters BD box do pretty exceptional.

Mikakunin's problem isn't a lack of personality.

 

[R_thanatos]

Why do people have the perception that Neferopitou is a male because it doesn't really explain that.

Because aside from the king ,

Spoiler

the royal guards are asexual ?

Boooo! :T

I'm so impatient. :lol

Everything must take the proper steps before reaching the right conclusion !

I need to get this out of my mind once and of all because it's long stopped being a typo.

It's TouKa

Where are the bombas? I want to laugh at something. I hope Noragami and Inari both bomb. Neither deserves good sales.

 

[Mr.Jeff]

I find a major flaw in Angel Beats! is also its greatest strength: its numerous cast of characters.

Well from what I recall, Angel Beats was originally meant to be a series spread across a number of different mediums and not just the anime to maximise it's selling potential as opposed to normal VN trash -> anime transition.

Unfortunately this ends up backfiring because this spread out approach makes everything rushed and allows for minimal characterisation amongst its spread of unique characters.

 

[Dedication Through Light]

Looks like more Hamatora may be incoming,

Best announcement since the haikyuu pv today.

 

[Taruranto]

Why do people have the perception that Neferopitou is a male because it doesn't really explain that.

Iirc it is stated

Spoiler

in case the king dies, any ant could reproduce with a female of any specie

, plus Togashi loves gender ambiguity.

Haikyuu!! site updated with the most recent commercials and such. Looks and sound fantastic and even Suga and Sawamura voices. Tanaka is great. I just wish we could get more of Nishinoya

Favorite moments

And a HQ of the visual

Looks like 20k per volume and >9999 doujins at comitek.

Rock these fujoshi money you got with kurokok and keep the quality consistent, I.G.

 

[cajunator]

i know that..

But that character is kinda different ( don't want to spoil anything ).

Anyway if you want an escuse to start watching Hxh by all means, please do.. it's one of the best shonen series out there.

I dont really so if you want to PM me spoilers about the character thats fine.

Mikakunin is amazing, but I still have to watch Love Lab, I have my eyes on her:

Yes you should watch Love Lab. It was pretty great.

 

[cnet128]

You should, though.

Everyone should want an excuse to start watching Hunter x Hunter.

Second season of Chuunibyou flopping compared to first?

Hopefully Noragami will sell well next week.

 

[Midonin]

Tokyo Ravens 24 + Final Thoughts

Spoiler

Kon is in the house! And in her grown-up, true form too.

That was a pretty good finale. Closed off a lot of plot points, including ones that were established at the start of the season, but also left it open enough that, should there be more books besides the one or two that currently exist, a theoretical second season is possible.

As far as shows of this kind go, I liked it. There were times when it got a little too impenetrable with all the terminology and organizations and magical politics names flying about, but when it focused on Harutora and friends, things were clear. The action was nice, and the characters were all quirky enough to work. Natsume's twist of being a "boy" for the first part of the series added a new wrinkle to things, and Suzuka was adorable, even if she was threatening testicular removal. Then there's Kon, who was always a joy to watch when she's on screen. The tiger jersey episode comes to mind.

A very solid show overall.

My favourite thing about the Miss Monochrome nendoroid is that it comes with a Miss Monochrome nendoroid. It's, like, Nendoception or something.

I preordered her. I really wanted something from Miss Monochrome. Really enjoyed that little show a lot.

 

[CorvoSol]

Great Mazinger 15

The Earth is only 75% water, so what better war-beast to send to conquer it than one that is 100% likely to melt with the slightest contact with water?

Some nightmare scenes in this episode like when some blood-sucking lizards attach onto a dog and suck it dry. This is a kids show?

Also Boss tries his hand at science and it goes horribly awry.

 

[hosannainexcelsis]

Where are the bombas? I want to laugh at something. I hope Noragami and Inari both bomb. Neither deserves good sales.

Nothing is selling particularly well this season, except possibly Hozuki no Reitetsu, so you can go ahead and laugh at most every show if you are so inclined.

It lost me once it casted Miyukichi as a boy!

Im pretty sure yeah.

Think of it this way. He/she would fit more in something like Elfen Lied than stuff that typically features cute characters.

....why? I mean the show is ok. Did it sell well? Were people clamoring for more?

 

[dakkumauji]

....why? I mean the show is ok. Did it sell well? Were people clamoring for more?

Considering this got announced right after it finished airing, it probably was already set to have more coming regardless if it sold like Free! or sold like Chuu2Chuu2.
