Gundam AGE 18

A year and a half in 3 eps? I wish this had more time to develop characters as that Zeheart/Asemu friendship/rivalry deserves better. Hopefully that comes about going forward. My biggest complaint so far is the amount of reading in-between the lines episodes needing to be done.

I think MJP > Valvrave > Gargantia. Gargantia has the least good cast of the bunch, while MJP seems the funniest and Valvrave has the best music and most likely rivalry of the two leads.

I think...

MJP will have the best script (funny, tongue-in-cheek, hopefully also lots of fun) and the most creative mecha battles (each mech on the team has totally different functions, Orange rocks at CG action, etc).

Valvrave have the best theme songs (omg!!!!), good character dialogue direction (believe in Ko Matsuo!), and the most traditional storyline (Sunrise doing Gundam Redux).

Gargantia will have the best character animation (apparently even Kameda has defected to IG for this project because of the director!), the best art direction (really cool setting, detailed backgrounds, bright colors), and maybe the most "interesting" plot twists (UROBUUUUUUUUUUUCHI!).

Wow, that's great! Hype levels increasing.

Some avatars need the borders. Avatars without borders and a transparent/matching background color are the worst.
Nah.

I personally prefer the closed look on some avatars. In my opinion, there's nothing wrong with them if it fits your composition.
But they already look closed even without a black border. It just looks redundant and sticks out like a sore thumb.

So, um what are the chances that some other company licenses Penguin Drum later on and releases a blu ray with better image quality? I just saw the screencaps and I'm not sure if I should get it anymore.
The best hope is Kaze and/or Siren doing a BD release as they're releasing the DVD's in the UK & Aus and that should help alleviate the reverse importation nonsense and/or Sentai's incompetence which really are the only two reasons that could lead to such a shoddy release.

Man, do they love them stock footage. And this time it wasn't even (mostly) of the Precures!

Well, Pop at least got his moment to shine. It would have been funny if the Precures defeated the Hyper Akanbe in fast forward mode but alas, that would reduce amount of time the stock footage would take up.

Diebuster 5 & 6 (End)

I like watching things blow up!

That ending was very dirty, playing on the high I had with Gunbusters ending and tugging the heart strings again although the ending to Diebuster only worked because Gunbuster's ending was that awesome.

This is seriously a show you should revisit after you've got off the Gunbuster high.

My smug!Erika does not approve of such lies.

Nice! glad you are enjoying them my friend.

I'm honestly afraid of breaking it apart every time I touch it. The things are so fragile. How can you handle your collection with such burly hairy hands?

I know that feeling. Especially with the Figma Kuroyukihime. she is SUPER FRAGILE with all the little butterflies on her dress and parts that dont fit together that well.

Play? I think you're using your figurines differently than I am.

I dont have many poseables so they just sit there being cute. Thats all I need them to do.

Steins;Gate 3-12 (dubwatch rewatch)

12 was an odd place to end the set, felt sorry for people who had to wait on this, still probably the most intense episode of the whole anime.

Some of darus lines are great. "theyre the otp in the fanfic of my life"

This episode is where the shit hits the fan. So good. Before that itsl ike "well this is good but where is this going- OH SHIT OH MY GOD!"

So, um what are the chances that some other company licenses Penguin Drum later on and releases a blu ray with better image quality? I just saw the screencaps and I'm not sure if I should get it anymore.

Not likely. Well not in the Us. Probably a much better UK or aussie set coming.

I'm just glad anybody even licenced it in the first place.

Yeah, same here.

The best hope is Kaze and/or Siren doing a BD release as they're releasing the DVD's in the UK & Aus and that should help alleviate the reverse importation nonsense and/or Sentai's incompetence which really are the only two reasons that could lead to such a shoddy release.

Oh yeah, I didn't think of the other regions for this. I guess I'll keep waiting.

The Majestic Prince design is the actual CG model. Look closely! Orange <3 :D

Are there any trailers for this that actually show the mecha for more than half a second? It feels like they're trying to strategically hide it by showing lots of pewpewpew and explosions but no actual mecha.

Can't trust a mecha anime that doesn't have its own mecha featured prominently in the promotional materials.

Awesome I want to see that! Where does it come from?

Also:
Cardfight!! Vanguard 1 ~ 3:I like it. I like how it focuses on unit and the characters seems cool so far. It was funny to see the little girl being ""hooked" to the game too. I really heard the show screaming "hey little girl, buy cards too, they're cool even for girls, I swear!"
