It almost twenty years since NGE original emission, I think the statute of spoilers already passed for Evangelion.

Perhaps but I'll usually spoiler tag unless there's a reason not to. I also only watched it for the first time months ago so it's not like there aren't people who haven't seen it and might be waiting for a release like this. Though, you're right, it's definitely old enough that people don't HAVE to tag it.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
It's a real shame, I'm way behind on it mostly due to the impressions I've heard regarding it.



Yeah, it's one of the most popular visual novels of all time for some reason. What exactly did it do to gather such praise?

Then again, what did SAO do to gather such praise?

Well if anything, F/SN gave us Fate/Zero, so that's always a plus.

Deep, intricate plot that only true fans of the genre can understand.

....okay, its because its filled with waifus of various wish-fulfillment fantasy types and the VN also has extremely graphic sex scenes with most of them.

Sailor Moon Mondays: Sailor Moon R: Episode 59:

Not even going to pretend I cared about anything pertaining to this dull and tedious arc, I am just glad it is over, even in spite of the dark times. Just going to recommend avoid the first 13 episodes of Sailor Moon R, what a waste of time.

Sailor Moon Mondays: Sailor Moon R: Episode 60

So, we have reached this point, an episode I have been dreading since this project started and if you have been paying attention I have not hidden my feelings about this well. Indeed we have reached the debut of the cosmic nightmare given pink hair, Chibiusa, harbinger of doom, ruiner of Sailor Moon R. I suppose your feelings on Mini Yog-Solgoth is dependent on when you encountered her in the franchise, as later seasons and indeed the manga don't depict her as this bloody awful. I encountered her first in the DiC dub which actually achieved the impossible and made her even more of a little monster. I had also been wondering if my memories had been exaggerated and I am dismayed to say that, no, no they are not, at least not for the first appearance. Anyway, I am pretty sure I could ramble on for a good half hour about how The Spore is just the worst thing ever but aside from that we are introduced to the new villain group who seeks Chibiusa and indeed the Silver Crystal. This also means we are back to canon since the Silver Crystal is back into play and the villains are a group once again. Also, this episode establishes the grand tradition of Mamoru wearing terrible and hideous shirts. Right, since this the beginning of what you could call the true arc of Sailor Moon R this episode is a must watch, though try not to destroy your screen in the process.
 
apparently onii-sama out sold SAO this year for LNs

I just really don't get otaku market sometimes. While anime adaption of SAO is bad too at least I can somewhat see why it's popular. Anime adaption of Madoka was just so fucking boring. How in the hell it gave growth to LN sales. Mindfuck.

Tokyo Ghoul climbing into one of biggest manga in Japan after the adaptation, just think about that.

"This show is pretty shit"

"Read the lns bro, onii sama even more onii sama in it"

Bad adaptions can increase sales, look @ Magi. It's not about the quality of the anime, it's about awareness, fuck most of these adaptions are just commercials for the original source anyway.

Most anime adaptions are basically a advertisement for the original source. And even if the adaptation is crap it still creates awareness for the original source, whether it's less or a lot. For example Tokyo Ghoul last year ranked at 27 for yearly manga sales, but this year it ranked at 4. For a Seinen manga that's huge and that's with a shitty adaption. The same thing is happening with 7 Deadly Sins.

Well i won't lie , i only read the 13 books ( soon the 14th ) of mahouka when the anime was coming i liked it ... the quality of the anime and the lack of proper pacing just made me love the books more

The LNs actually explain what is going on with spells too, which is nice.

Haven't seen Tokyo Ghoul as I hate censoring but what I have heard... damn.

Oh. I know that anime adaptions are pretty much done only as an advertisement for the original source material but Mahouka was so bad and boring that it feels weird to me that anime adaption made LN sales overtake the almighty SAO. Well I guess I just can't see the awesomenes of Onii sama.

So when the BDs can't sell on the promise of no censorship because there was nothing to censor in the TV broadcast you have to come up with alternative incentive. In this case just slap a transparent black layer on top.

Looks like it's because of that Pokemon epilepsy thing.

The infamous Porygon episode? That was ridiculous. Like 90% of the screen was just the background flashing between solid red and solid white with the characters tucked in one corner. I don't even think a black layer on top would have helped unless it was set to 0% transparency.
