Surprisingly bueno.

So
Yurikano
builds up a season's worth of mystique only to turn out to be
a six-year-old with an adult body? PARISH WAS RIGHT.
There absolutely has to be more to this.

.............................right?

At least Madoka speaking with a Kansai accent made the episode bearable.

I wonder if I should start doing episode impressions just for OniAi. I think there will be enough people watching Chu2koi.

I guess we'll see how many people are watching it (including me) 2-3 episodes in. I have hope!
 

Regulus Tera

Romanes Eunt Domus
Eureka Seven AO 22

I cannot present to you how bullshit this show is now and how freaking moronic it has become. We all knew it was going horrible after episode 14
Anyone smart enough to take notice of Bones' output in the last few years was able to tell the writing was gonna suck crap since the moment it was announced. I seriously don't get why people still put up so much faith in this studio.

But hey, they do make pretty sakuga.

It's not like he ever comes 'round these parts! Haha.

Don't play with fire! You can summon mods to this thread just by speaking their names. I've done it before. It's an ancient and profane magic that can easily consume the person who dares try it.

Anime lives so long as Happy Science blesses us.

Calling official dibs on the OT for the SEASON OF TRUTH.

Implying that it's just too sad to see what MAPPA's been forced to work on after a single series!
Aaah, understood! But don't worry, MAPPA was already dead to begin with... we have to focus on Shin Itagaki here, the studio is a mere vessel...
don't hit me!

You see, he has been incorporating the characters of this new show on his habitual column for WEB ANIMESTYLE, and he (as always) has such a cool "style" (never better said, and random as well as the name of this column implies) that it is very difficult to not expect that it influences at least a bit of this upcoming work:

Doesn't excuse using the exact same VA. I can understand going for a similar tone or style but not the exact same guy.
I am appalled, even if not surprised, that you guys are more irate about the VA being the same instead of anything fucking else that is wrong with that shitty cartoon.
 
Seriously can't wait for more Initial D.

I grew up hitting up the arcade which had a machine by the school every day for years. The anime wasn't great at all but it was a treat to watch. And nothing beats the greatness of the Initial D soundtrack, nothing!

Yeah, it should be good. The manga seems to be ending soon, so Fifth Stage should hopefully cover everything. Here's a list of the races that should be covered:

PROJECT D vs Team 246:
Keisuke Takahashi (FD3S) vs Kobayakawa (Evo VII)
Takumi Fujiwara (AE86) vs Satoshi Omiya (Roadster NB)

PROJECT D vs Racing Team Katagiri Street Ver.:
Takumi Fujiwara (AE86) vs Kai Kogashiwa (MR-S)
Keisuke Takahashi (FD3S) vs Hideo Minagawa (Supra RZ)

PROJECT D vs Team Spiral:
Takumi Fujiwara (AE86) vs Hiroya Okuyama (S15)
Keisuke Takahashi (FD3S) vs Ryuji Ikeda (350Z)

PROJECT D vs Sidewinder:
Ryosuke Takahashi (FC3S) vs Rin "Shinigami" Hojo (R32) [Unofficial Battle]
Keisuke Takahashi (FD3S) vs Go Hojo (NSX)
Takumi Fujiwara (AE86) vs Shinji Inui (AE86)

I agree. By the last season, I scrubbed through most of the cases and stayed mostly for Hugh Laurie.

That said, some person dying of some rare medical condition is more quote-unquote "interesting" (to emphasize my skepticism :p) to watch than a dude figuring out why the teacher got his lesson plan mixed up.
Isn't the whole reason people say "quote-unquote" in real life to specify they are gonna cite something textually? Why would you write down "quote-unquote" and then proceed with the actual quote in quotation marks in an internet post?

I don't get it.

really good season! I'll be watching

From The New World
Psycho-Pass
Chuunibyou


maybe Robotics;Notes . maaaaybe Magi too if impressions are good. I don't like following lots of shows weekly.

Gyrozetter character designs look really terrible, it's almost like Level-5 made it...

Sao is the second highest rated anime of the year and a top 50 of all time only beat by no. 27 kurokos basketball...so im quite sure sao is quality and enjoyable.

Popularity doesn't really imply quality. Hell, SAO had around a 9 or so on MAL before a single episode had aired. I'm enjoying SAO still, but it's been quite disappointing.

I was going to make a flippant comment about there being nothing to watch, but having scrubbed through the OP, things look promising!

This is truly the winter of discontent.
