Actually, I just remembered a scene that was animated on ones. The scene in The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya where Kyon first sees Asakura. It creates a very distinct impression compared to animation that's done on twos.

How does Code Geass airing over five years ago, copy Guilty Crown which just aired last October?

Well, that arc sure was a lot shorter than I was expecting it would be.

After CC revealed Mao's weakness, the road ahead of Ledouche was pretty clear. He is a great strategian, after all. It was kind of refreshing to have him as Lelouch himself and not as Zero in "battle" for a change.

And dat surprise. I guess girls with post-traumatic amnesia don't mind the cameras too much.

Also Shirley, lost all memory of Ledouche Ahahahaaa! That should keep you less annoying for now, little girl!

More wonderful keikaku and story on the past interactions of the better girl on the show, C.C. She is still mysterious, but she has proven once again that she has a heart, emotions and a drive. Therefore, unlike the living husk that is Inori of Guilty Crown..

I am looking forward to seeing more on C.C.'s past and possibly her motivations and gift behind contract making.

Sure, but even for talented animators I doubt there would be any jump at all. It's just wasteful. I feel comfortable sticking in my "amount of frames doesn't matter" position!

Looks like it disappeared for me too. Might have been a one year license like other Viz stuff since it apparently went up April 30, 2011.

Code Geass R1 16

Oh, so Mao wasn't dead yet. He had a role to fullfil: expose poor Suzaku. Who, oh, by the way, has freaking super hero agility and fighting skills. Haven't we told you that?

Let's hope he is now, though. At least he won't be trolling anyone anymore after Ledouche's genius reaction.

Code Geass R1 16

Quote:
Bring in the beast, Keikaku!

Anyways, ol' boy Mao surprised me with his "still living" thing and all. But now, I'm pretty sure he's dead...kinda....maybe.

On the other hand, Mr.Mr.Mr.Suzaku well,well,well so his strength behind reckless heroism is finally revealed. Indeed, sacrificing yourself in the name of good can make Death's embrace easier to dance around. He himself fell prey to extreme measures in the name of change or preventing an non-idealistic future, not too much unlike Ledouche now.

Also, he is a super agile, above Olympics qualifying runner. What news!


As for Pizza Hut, didn't get much air time here, I'm afraid to say. But the blind and...quite clueless Nunally is saved.

This episode clears a path for Suzaku and Ledouche to grow their friendship around this new lil' fact over Suzaku murdering in the past. Whether they'll touch on it heavily again, is not clear to day with this anime's pacing, though I'll go with, "Yes."

Hopefully, more mech action awaits sooner than later.

Mysterious Girlfriend X 1-3

Finally got around to making a Crunchroll account and ended up switching the first three episodes and Another. Gotta say, despite it's disgusting (albeit rather intruiging) catch, it's a pretty solid romance series. Urabe's voice caught me a bit of gaurd as I didn't expect it to be that deep. The character designs remind me a bit of Rumiko Takahashi's work as well; I think it may be the eyes. Can someone make me a gif of Urabe spewing spit from out her mouth after Tsubaki shreded that picture in episode 1? I might want to use it for later.

Quote:
Sweet. Got some mech action with this one.

Tohdoh is saved and he's able to use his cool sword mecha again.

Also, Suzaku gets exposed as "The White Knight" which Britannica has been relying on so much.


Ledouche was as you see in the image. The strategist had no plan against the power of his own friendship and with that he retreated with his gang of merrymen into the chaff smoke It'll be interesting to see the society's response after a lengthier amount of time to meditate on the mentioned fact while the princess, of course, chose Suzaku as her personal guard...

so when am I gonna get some more Pizza Hut?

What an episode.

Quote:
That's right, Ledouche. Wasn't expecting that, huh? The despair in Kallen's voice was pretty good too.

Epic stuff. The synchronized mech destruction scenes with the Four Swords were pretty good already, but the fighting in the series is at its best when Lancelot's in action. On top of that, we even had Guren Mk-II's creator giving hints of possible upgrades to Kallen's toy.

And finally the princess makes the obvious choice we all knew she'd make all along.

Well, Lupin is obviously the best OP of the shows this season. Space Brothers has a pretty good opening, too, and I like Kids on the Slope's a lot. Those are the ones that really stand out to me right now.

I'm definitely unsure about spots 3-7, those really could still go in any order at this point. Still, here's my list at the moment.

1. Saki Achiga-hen: Episode of Side-A
2. Tasogare Otome x Amnesia
3. Natsuiro Kiseki
4. Mysterious Girlfriend X
5. Polar Bear Cafe
6. Haiyore! Nyaruko-san
7. Upotte!
8. Yurumates 3D
9. Medaka Box
10. Naruto SD: Rock Lee's Adventures

Still need to watch: Lupin, Hyouka, Space Brothers

Yes! I've been looking for this ever since they took it down on youtube. Best ED is still Accel's World mainly because of it's synthpop music.

If I were to judge music only, I'd go with Lupin, which has far and away more compositional interest than the usual pop songs, and Space Brothers for its inspirational qualities. Perhaps Tsuritama for its happy-go-lucky quirkiness. Also would have to give a musical shoutout to the EDs of Kids on the Slope and Sankarea.

I really like Dusk Maiden's OP too for some reason. I think that and FEEL SOOOO MOOOON are probably my favorites.

As far as EDs go, Sankarea's is my favorite. No contest.

The minimalism in the Lupin OP is just so good, and the way the layering with the rhythmic modulation tickles my composer brain in a good way.
