I'm calling it now, Tomoka is gonna start the sleepy eyed girls are moe movement. It's gonna be the Chunnibyou eye-patch thing all over again.

Makai Ouji - Devils and Realist 1
So it starts with senseless BL fanservice (why, King Solomon is a handsome young man that makes the demon "his" by embracing him!), and it continues with a very flat delivery and uninteresting direction. Joke delivery is bad, action scenes are boring, MC is annoying in his "rational" beliefs in the middle of dealing with demon.
Maybe, if there is a miracle, from the second episode onwards the interaction and dialogue between the MC and the demon will be really entertaining, smart, funny and interesting, that would save the show, but somehow I doubt it after this first episode.

Gravedigger loli. uhh. God left us so there are zombies. Uhh.
I don't know. I think I will watch a pair of episodes more to see where the hell this series will go, plot wise. So I suppose they got me interested, in a way, even if the first episode was pretty uneven.

We're only said know that Shinn and Luna somehow work for Orb (how does that happen?)

There was an epilogue in the compilation movies with an extra scene where Shin and Kira meet at Orb after the series. I don't think anything is said about what Shin is doing, but jumping from that to working for Orb isn't a big stretch.

The seiyuus DID change from the Vomic for the anime version of Nisekoi!

Raku is now Kouki Uchiyama, Chitoge is now Nao Toyama, and Onodera is now KANA HANAZAWA

Also apparently there's going to be at least one anime-original character

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!! MY PLEAS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED!!! THANK YOU SHAFT FOR GIVING ME HNNNNGZAWA ONODERA.

Sucks about Tomatsu Haruka being shafted oh well, she can always play Tsugumi.

Now all I need is Mai Nakahara to voice Marika.

This is what I get for sleeping. WataMote comes out, seems to be universally praised, and I have to wait a while to watch it... :(

Tonight should be a fun Anime night for me...
 
So a week ago I posted about not feeling Steins; Gate and asked for advice, since I was only 3 episodes in at the time. Well I watched episode 8 last night and will be onto 9 today and I'm really digging it, glad I stayed on board. Looking forward to later episodes because everyone said the best starts half way through.

The anime archetype characters are still super annoying though, I could do without that shit. At least no more maid cafe and I'll settle

Wait, I thought you guys were joking. Is this shit true?

I honestly have no idea.

Watamote #1 - about the only entertaining thing was the end credits. Really didn't like this. Especially after Hachiman Hikigaya who was similar in ways, just about 1000 times more entertaining.

The World God Only Knows - Goddess Arc ep 1
I believe the fact that TWGOK got a third season despite the fact that the first 2 seasons bomb so badly.

As usual the OP is impressive for TWGOK but the fucking problem is that OP already spoiled who are the goddesses candidates and I can't forgive the fact that manglobe decided the cliffnote the previous girls arcs that wasn't not shown in the 2nd season ending. Where's mah Yui, ramen girl, Tsukiyo and Kusonoki's Sister arc?!

Fuck you Manglooooooooooooobe!!!!!!!

Soooo many birthdays in June/July. I guess that means September/October are the designated sexing up months. Wonder why.

Happy Birthday, Ultimadrago.
 
I'm pretty sure this is straight-up bullshit. Either someone is trolling or they're dumb as shit and are confusing Love Lab for Love Laboratory, a completely different thing.

I don't know. Looking at manga covers for it (Made sure to search Renai Lab) definitely shows boys on the cover.

Happy birthday, Ultimadrago and Pizzaroll!
 
That was dimb you quoted, not me.

I can see that from watching, It's the impression of people saying how hilarious it was that threw me off. There were a few funny moments, but it was more sad/disturbing than laugh out loud funny.

My bad, it was late.

Some people will find it hilarious, but likely in a Sacha Baron Cohen way.

Happy Birthday Ultimadrago! Looking forward to seeing (I assume) the new Nichijou volumes you got! Also RIP Risette.

From what I have heard from someone who's read the manga, there are minor but present male characters who serve as love interests.

God damn it.

At least I can turn to Kiniro Mosaic for salvation.

Happy Birthday Ultimadrago! While you stop at nothing at trying to destroy my garden, I appreciate you nonetheless!
