My experience has been largely the same, I enjoy that film exponentially more with each subsequent viewing.

Tonight my mates and I watched Onimonogatari ep 4 and then Otorimonogatari 1-3 (so that's Shinobu/Time and Nadeko/Medusa). Ha... Ha... Hachikuji. :asuka_sad: Last time we watched, we had to end the session before the final episode of the arc due to time, and now I'm glad it happened...

Hunter x Hunter : http://a.pomf.se/jzbylq.png how can one man be so ＬＩＴＥＲＡＬＬＹ perfect? the entire dodgeball "arc" was fantastic; significant consequences on the line, superb teamwork between killua and gon (whose relationship I think is my favorite part of the show, I gather that they...

You can watch the two films just fine but I would agree that the OVA series in the back of your mind makes the character moments better, especially in the second.

Fuck yeah.

Where in the country will you be?

New Aldnoah was pretty retarded. I've come this far to see it through so hopefully we'll get a crazy ending. York New City arc of Hunter x Hunter was excellent, though it brought Kurapika's revenge crusade thingy to a more abrupt end than I expected I think it was handled particularly we...

Awwwwwww yeahhhhhhhhh

YES! YES! YES!

God bless you Zeta, my favorite UC entry. I've never rooted so hard for such an angry protagonist.

Anyone looking for some down and dirty Burakumin lit should check out Nakagami Kenji. He only has a few stories translated but two of them are exceptional in their desperate sense of community and resentment.

Got impatient and finished reading Stardust Crusaders. I can't wait until the final arc is animated, holy shit. Really lends credence to the whole sono chi no sadame thing. I'm about 30 chapters into part 4 now.

how can one assassin be so cute?

Season 1 was more consistent than season 2 but 2's peaks are much higher. The second half of it is the best part of the series by a wide margin. I don't agree that Ginko shows noticeably less involvement than S1, in which save for a few episodes he conducted himself in largely the same way. ...

I don't think adapting the rest of the novels when there's so much demand for them would be anything approaching milking. I've heard they keep getting better, too.

I can't stop watching Hunter x Hunter.

Heike Monogatari This is quite the work, formative for Japan in both historic and literary terms. There's a heavy buddhist bent, so be ready for that. But mostly be ready for lots of battles and crying. Read the Tale of Yoshitsune when you're done if you want more great but doomed character...

Yuki Yuna was straight inspiring. Great character work, music and art. Glad people posted about it here, otherwise I wouldn't have picked it up. EDIT: Though now that I go back and read Tines' spoilered posts I realize there were bits I didn't understand. So what, the main characters are...

Awesome covers. I'm nearly done with the show myself, the music and art direction are really great.
