Hmm, maybe I should do reaction guys again for one of the spring shows but I ain't got time nowadays.

if you're gonna do one then do it for AKB0048. do it for kawamori.

Another 12 - FINALE

Well I guess that's that...

Was pretty shocked when they revealed who the extra was. In a way it was kind of a non ending since the cycle will just continue and they never touched upon the underlying cause behind it all.

Would love to find out why Koichi killed her 1.5 years ago as well.

Overall a decent horror series, but it didn't come anywhere near the levels of ridiculousness and creepiness that was present in Higurashi.

That will forever remain the king.

Well I hope this somehow leads to another season.

Only if it's more like episodes 2-10 than 11-12, though.

Higurashi is really the king? It wasn't very scary, or creepy.
at least having only seen the first season it wasn't

[Thoraxes]

FYI The 000's for Lagrange is because it came out on Friday; data is compiled on Thursdays.

I'm assuming the same is for the other two also being too close to the date. (though ZnT is a typo?)

11,619 *1 Inu x Boku SS [DVD+BD]: 2012/03/21

Time to watch this. I am looking forward to [REDACTED] to Ruri and Karuta. Especially Karuta because she's really [REDACTED].

[dimb]

Only if it's more like episodes 2-10 than 11-12, though.

I briefly looked into the story, it sounds like the manga is pretty far along compared to what we got and it goes in some weird directions.

Missed the cutoff, or something.

I think ZnT did sell like shit though, not enough to chart.

There's Koneko things that need to happen.

Missed the cutoff, or something. I think ZnT did sell like shit though, not enough to chart (just like Shana).

I guess the final seasons really were for the fans.

[cosmicblizzard]

Does no one like Shiki btw? I rarely see it mentioned on "recent anime" lists.

I'm a pretty big fan.

Would you want one though?

They waited too long, until interest had waned away.

[Articalys]

Never mind.

That's how I felt too. I'm glad they happened anyways though (and even had decent endings too).

So everyone has commented on the merits (or lack thereof) of AKB0048's designs before, but damn.

What's going on with her arm there?

Do they not produce Gintama BRs?

Naw. Shounens don't rate. (Probably because who would be crazy to buy them all?)

Yes please. It's not a pedo anime <:

Better than Usagi Drop at least.

Really, I wouldn't mind if the show was about a dude going to college and trying to hit on his boob sempai. That first episode was all a lie though.

[Noirulus]

"cute not pedo"

GAF would make you think the main character has the hots for his nieces, but he is a normal, respectable adult of society.

No, it's just a boring anime.

There's worse out there, this show is my guilty pleasure.

Shonen (Jump) fans tend to be 30-something old men who only have DVD players at home. They go online on their Windows 95 machines to talk about the latest One Piece chapters.

Being mastered at ~540p might have something to do with. Well, that and it's a long running shounen series and they usually don't get BD releases.

So young girls don't watch magical girl shows and boys don't watch shonen, it all makes sense now.

Ano Natsu de Cockblock 12 - Finale

Fantastic ending to a great show.

Tanigawa's tears were delicious.

Definitely one of my favourite romance shows since Toradora!

Overall, Lemon was the true star of the show.

If you're a kid growing up now, why would you watch a cartoon in the middle of episode 500+?

Me too, but who knows when that'll happen. They've even got enough source material for a sequel now.
