If your name is Nonoriri you have to go buy Nanami's tampons.

Yes, I'm not denying that. I'm just saying those are the shows I will watch at least one episode of. No point making a list of shows I will likely also watch 2 episodes of, 5 episodes of, 12 episodes of, etc.

Yeah. I went to Anime Expo years ago just to see him. Actually won this pencil portrait of Hikari at the panel, still my most prized anime collectable. Cosplayed as The Communicator when I went to go pick it up. Was awesome.

Goddamn kids, this many posts in an hour?

Blue Exorcist for sure as I've been reading the manga since it started. Tiger and Bunny looks like something to watch too. .

Also Deen with money = not bad. Deen without money = lulz.

I just started watching yumekui merry yesterday. So far it doesn't suck.

If you like it you should check out the manga afterwards, it has plenty more good moments and goes in a better direction than the one they have in the anime for the original ending.

And yes this thread is zooming, feel like I need to get that auto-updater extension I've seen before. Probably gonna wake up to like 10 pages tomorrow.

Not a chance!

Anyways, since Studio DEEN really did Angel's Egg and Maison Ikkoku, it's clear that their best days are behind them. About 25 years behind them. Simoun was a'ight though.

Yeah, it's not like that animation staff is even working there any more. Well, some of them might be, I can't be bothered to check.

Thread will be a pleasure to lurk once more.

Will eventually check out TWGOK and Sket Dance. Hope X-Men turns out good.

If you didn't how else would we know how they turned out?
Ok so we all know that isn't true but hey I like reading about bad things.

Not before, but that does help a bit. :p Looks cool but, uh, I'd still like to see more than just two characters and some background art. MOAR

Sounds like you need more Mebae Asuka, it's the next best thing!

Isn't the manga like, fairly recent? What are the chances of them pumping out something worthwhile with what material they have?

edit: Dem legs are looong.

This generally happens, but it depends on the hour that the thread is posted. It'll start to drop off eventually, they always do.

Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica 1
Not a good start guys. Interesting shot and visual design choices for the otherworld stuff, but as soon as the dream ends, it's moe pandering the whole way. Madoka even LOOKS STRAIGHT INTO THE CAMERA AND SAYS SHE WISHES SHE WOULD GET A LOVE LETTER. Excuse me as I throw up. And of course the first Mahou Shoujo seen and who almost dies is a kuudere. Why don't we just give her blue hair and a questionable relationship with a bearded man while we're at it? The shift to LOOK, HERE'S THE RIVAL seems forced too, and it looks like she has some insecurities to work out.

The good is that it has an interesting approach to lighting and sound, and the visual design is unique when things get going, but really it's very uneven. I'll keep watching, see where it goes. It doesn't look BAD persay, which I never thought it was, I just don't think it'll live up to the hype some of you guys put it to.

Watch up to ep 3 then do whatever.

It's only going to be 12 episodes, right? They shouldn't run into an issue there.

I've been meaning to check the series out, so I'll probably check out the anime.

Assuming they only do a 13 episode series, they could do something decent enough to leave the door open for more. The manga is only 5-6 volumes at the moment and it's just started a proper story arc or so.

I had a pretty terrible last season, only 105 posts.

Oh, and for the remaining K-ON haters in Anime-GAF:

We have Jexhius on our side now. Your survival is now impossible, so you might as well give in to your hate! :3

I guess I'd better start watching TWGOK since season 2 is premiering really soon now. I've also prepared Gundam movies 2, 3, and Char's Counterattack, so I'm ready to get through those so I can start watching Gundam Unicorn. I've put Broken Blade on indefinite hiatus until all 6 parts have been released, if it actually turns out decent at the end, I'll resume watching, otherwise I won't.

Not bad at all. It's scheduled for 12 episodes and the manga is a monthly with 25+ chapters out. They're in no danger anytime soon.

I'm actually looking forward to episode 1 of X-Men this week more than I'm looking forward to the final episode of Star Driver. Lol. And I'm not at all joking.

I'll start caring about that the moment White Rabbit screws up the anime. I've read quite a bit of it already so I should be able to judge from the first few episodes.
