Shhh. We're all girls, here.

I for one welcome Fireball's new avatar.

while it may or may not be shit I really can't wait till I get to see SuperS since it seems to be so surreal Ikuhara/Enokido weirdness SuperS is great so far. I'm only four episodes in, but so far it's been about rape and dream-pillaging--and more importantly, rape & dream pillaging...

I really need to sink my teeth into something [good], but I keep getting distracted by new shows, many of them dealing with cute girls doing cute things. Current lineup looks like this: Samurai Bride (I SAID SHUT UP!) It happens, man; I know exactly how you feel. I was planning on finishing...

The feels in this show were a pleasant surprise indeed, although I would have much preferred it if they went for the sad ending, rather than the “LOL! I’m back! Now wait for the next season that’ll never come” ending they decided on. You know, I'm really torn on that tissue. That last ep hit re...

I just finished Tasogare Otome x Amnesia, aka I Did Not Sign Up For This Much Emotion: The Anime It's a ghost story romance, but it might as well be about a schizophrenic off her meds. Chock full of JUNG and lewdness, the story covers a fair amount of ground between the mystery aspects and the S...

@Fireball you'll have to get back to us when you've decided on your favorite witch.

although, it's not like the correct answers could be anyone other than either Lynette or Minna

Jamming with an older fellow has made me go through the aforementioned's back catalogue again for first time since I was in high school, and I'll be damned if that isn't one fine live version of one of my favorite tracks.

people hail [Steins;Gate] as the best shit in recent years but you gave it "only" an 8. the people hailing it as the best shit in recent years don't tend to have seen as much stuff to compare it to, I've noticed. I thought it was well put together and quite entertaining, but some ...

Gravity's Rainbow. Oh god I am not prepared. No one ever is. I still cannot count myself among the few that have actually finished it yet, but someday... And for what it's worth, sometimes I've thought that you resemble a highly pessimistic and possibly suicidal version Slothrop. Take t...

The "main story" will come back in force sooner or later but that's hardly ever been OreImo's main hook. :shrug: it hasn't? Given that the main story has always been something along the lines of "what will Protag-kun's next outrageous, guilt-ridden defense of his litt...

^Only toward the very end. The whole episode seemed very sloppily thrown together, though, with little regard to pacing or structure or even logic. I rather liked Saori's character when I watched the first season, but she seemed so dull and lifeless during a flashback designed to make her more s...

Has anyone here been disappointed with Ore Imo's second season? Granted, it's been a while since I watched S1 (never rewatched it after its airing, either), but S2 seems to be lacking punch, cohesiveness, and style compared to what I remember. Maybe I'm imagining things.

Read up to the most recent chapter of Aku no Hana tonight, starting from the first. It's pretty awful and plain, but the collective misery of its characters was interesting in its own way, I guess. The only thing it has on the anime is the artwork, but the anime's direction manages to make m...

^Yeah. In terms of narrative, the film is truncated gibberish compared to the scope of the manga. When anyone says that Miyazaki can't write stories or he's only capable of making stuff for kids, the Nausicaa manga is the thing to throw around given its themes, grittiness, tragedy, and its d...

If we wanted to get into technicalities, Nausicaa was made before Ghibli was founded.

It's one of those cases where the film is great, since Miyazaki adapted it from his own work, but at the same time, it remains completely overshadowed by the comic.

having seen the shows I'll probably be sticking with this season, I've decided on my hesitant ranking in descending order of interest: Railgun S Hataraku Maou-sama = Gargantia Ore Imo S2 Aku no Hana Shingeki no Kyoujin Let's see if it holds through to the end. I probably have shit taste ...

Also, one series I will NOT be watching is Mobile Fighters G Gundam on account of the fact it is the worst thing to ever happen to anime ever. Period. of the non-UC timeline stuff, G Gundam is actually one of the most watchable and entertaining behind Turn A. It certainly beats the pants off of the...

I have to echo IO's sentiments regarding the Titans. I'll give it three episodes but I'll probably end up dropping it, even if it is really pretty. Shit was so edgy I don't even But Hataraku Maou-sama on the other hand was pretty great. It reminded me a lot of Level E in premise and ...
