The newest episode was first which I consider genuinely really good. The last two episodes have been much better than earlier ones overall
Kanba is already the best male lead since Takuto.

The only sour note so far is the girl. She has all the worthless character traits common to her type. Other then that this show looks very promising.
I must say I disagree. It's not bad but awfully mediocre in most respects (directing is really shoddy to boot and less said about fight scenes the better) and has featured some truly terrible writing.
Sawashiro Miyuki's excellent performance (sasuga Miyuki) as titular tsundere and no bs MC are just about the only truly good thing about it.
Ep 4's fujoshis in ye olde England was already JAPAAAANNNNNNNN moment but the real dumb was the resolution
THE STUPIDEST DEUS EX MACHINA I'VE SEEN IN QUITE A WHILE
***********
but who cares about this season's anime when I can have time of my life by continuing watching older titles! In Macross 7 Basara continues being dumber than pile of rocks and to boot he's started absolutely insufferable wangstfest. Also, SINGING FOR DINOSAURS LOLOLOLOOOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOOL (and new ED song sucks whyyy ;___; )
Anyway
CAN'T HE JUST DIE ALREADY
The worst Macross villain EVER
oh well, at least they finally gave the reduced-to-plot-dumber Eksedol a good line
and he's right. It may be futile but more fanservice wouldn't hurt this show - it's not like it has much to lose or anything.
Actually, Eksedol's wise beyond his greenskinned years line would be my comment on this week's Idolmaster too.

But enough about that. My main course today and for this post is Aquarion or to be more precise "WHAT THE FLYING FUCK AM I SEEING" and "who the fuck comes up with this sh-KAWAMORIIIIIIIIIIIIIII": The Series
dish being exemplary culinary experience in sheer WAT
creepiest lips ever, do not want
Okay, the not-at-all concealed yaoi subtexts and storyline in backstory are nothing new to this show and the main villain just breathes kind of debauched, disturbing cocaine fueled glam rock party gayness straight from 70s. His, uhh, unrequited love for our idiotic MC's previous incarnation - who in turn looks like a Diyonysian ancient greek character from wet dreams of Athenian pederast of the city's golden age heyday - was already kinda out there as it was but then episodes 13 and 14 happened and I don't even... just what exactly is Shoji smoking
(yes, those are freaking wings sprouting from his head - deal with it)
wait wait wait wait wait wait wait WAIT so if I get this straight:
These two muscular hunks of gay flesh on wings were FLUTTERING AROUND THE SUN with eventual purpose of...procreation for sake of their species? What? Are we talking about some sort of cosmic MALE PREGNANCY or...actually, I don't want to think about the details.
But oh no, it does not end here. After this our hero was supposed to buzz around Sephiroth tree in order to POLLINATE EACH OF ITS FLOWER? What is he, a FREAKING BEE? A pretty butterfly? A pregnant gay bee guy hopping from flower to flower in order to conceive a new world?
My mind is full of fuck.
What is most terrifying though is the implications...so if I get this straight the ultimate motivation behind bad guys's monster of the week attacks is to build up Doinky's
POWER LEVEL so that they can IMPREGNATE HIM?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?
I surrender, Kawamori. I've seen various kind of bad guy plans in my chinese cartoons but never, EVER one like this. SEELE is bunch of unimaginative nihilistic noobs. If they wanted to create a new, ideal world they should've just had Kaworu get Shinji pregnant and wait for reaping the fruit(s).
I think it goes without saying that Aquarion has long since usurped the position of the most out there mecha anime I've seen from Eva
Alastor wrote:Aquarion is basicly RahXephon, Getter Robo, and Eva at the biggest high mankind has ever known, with music by Yoko Kanno. And it's freaking awesome.
So guys, why aren't you watching this yet?
