I still remember my welcoming! It was Jexhius trying to get people to watch Upotte!
Thats better!
I ended up purchasing it so I suppose his ploy worked.
Especially if they ask for recommendations. People are always keen to hand those out.

So true , even tohka calls him "shido friend" , so well nobody bothers remembering who that guy is. Especially since his only role is to fail at playing dating-sims.
It's never too late.

I did that and got people responding so that was good.

I remember searching through an older thread with him posting Demon King Daimao impressions, seems pretty counterproductive.

i'm not sure how i feel.
Yeah, I think this seems like the kind of series that would feel a bit rushed in a single cour. And I'm enjoying it, so can't complain about having more.
EDIT: Looking at the article, it says more specifically that it's going to be split-cour. =/ That's always a little awkward, but eh.

hmmmm besides that one dude in the 3rd season of nanoha, have there been any other 'magic girls' dudes with full henshins and what not that isn't some parody skit?

Welp, finally finished off that last episode of Noragami! Good times all around. Personally didn't care too much for Yukine being a bit of a petulant shit for half the show, but I've seen worse. Probably acted worse back when I was younger, too. Rabo was probably a bit meh in terms of a villain, but Bones did right by the series, I think. A good springboard for future material! Here's to hoping.
Good to see they kept up on the recycled power-up scene quota throughout,

Isn't that what Saint Seiya's about?
Neither did I, but I guess that's to be expected when all I did was pop in, post a one sentence review of Star Jewel and then not post again for ages.
Not a fan of the bait and switch, at all.
I had to go running after I finished the episode, that's how fucking mad I was. :lol

I don't think I got one but there were some who kept telling me to stop watching Gundam AGE (I think I remember Episode 40 being a perticular sticking point) when I was posting impressions on it and they were right to tell me. Despite this I kept ignoring them, I still do that now when I end up watching crap.
Anyone who watches Ojamajo Doremi deserves a hero's welcome.
But youre so loveable! Im glad you stayed.

Kino's Journey 3
They messed with the structure here, That makes me even more excited for future stuff.
This episode was broken into a number of different parts, and it was largely about stories and the power they can hold over people. People in one town placidly await the end of the world as foretold in a special book. A poem of profound sadness is perpetually read aloud in memory of the suffering of the man who wrote it. There's even a country of traditions. People take pride in their stories, but their attachment can sometimes be a ball and chain. The ending points this out in one of the blackest jokes I've seen in an anime pretty much ever.
The director's use of light and shadow is particularly strong in this episode, especially in the country of sadness, where towering buildings loom over narrow canals, cloaking Kino in pitch-blackness. The mood of the episode gradually grows grimmer, ending at night, lit only by stars.
Great stuff.

I guess there's a lantern too.
Great stuff.

To be fair it would be roughly one year after I started posting here that I'd start Ojamajo Doremi, better late than never!

I hope not, but you're right. Onodera seems destined to lose in heartbreaking fashion
.This was me, sort of (well, actually, I did post a full introduction, but then I never posted in the thread again for many months), but I don't really think of it that way because I don't consider that early post part of my AnimeGAF "residence". As far as I'm concerned, this post was my start in AnimeGAF, and that got a fair amount of response because...uh, look at the length of it >.>
Actually, if we're going by my very first post in AnimeGAF, I've been here all the way since 2009! (This was a surprise even to me, I had no idea that post existed until I searched my post history just now...)
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!
Sommelier best guy!
Danke.
My advice for newcomers is to get on the IRC. Sure there will be a few initial "who is this guy?" posts but it's an easy way to break into the community.
Its great on a level that I cannot hope to analyze in my own words. I leave that to more eloquent folks. Its worthy of a dissertation though. Second best anime of all time and all that. Ill just say that the show had a profound effect on me and I really love the philosophies and explorations of every facet of humanity in it. I really really wish there was more or more of its kind.
It wasnt overly hated. More like frustrating when a certain element was present. Everybody seemed to like Koko's batshit crazy charms. It would be difficult not to fall in love with her.

DTL is watching Date a Live?
I want to know who he chooses as his waifu.
Already know he picked one in Nisekoi.

I'll admit I found that (combined with the ending) odd, but I still found the show enjoyable if for no other reason than the Koko antics.
Yeah, I felt the positives of Golden Time far outweighed the negatives. The whole
Ghost Banri being an ass
the dragging out of Banri's memory drama towards the end
Kouko in particular was indeed the heart and soul of the show and it was impossible not to love her pretty much every moment she was on screen. Even on those occasional instances when she was being a colossal bitch, she was such a magnificent one that it was very satisfying to watch on some level.
I'm on episode 22 and I wish this show never existed. Or at least they could have taken the plot a different direction, I like the characters.
Do you ever think that you come to premature conclusions? :lol :lol :lol
Yes, exactly that >_
I knowwwww. Koko is a magnificent creation. Basically she is perfect.
R_thanatos
Member
Koko is actually not perfect ..but what make her shine even more is that behind that "PERFECT" appearance at first glance was a pretty twisted ( in a good sense ) woman that longed affection
Yes. Which means shes perfect. I like girls who are not perfectly perfect. they are perfect.

Nisekoi 1 - 10
I finally started watching Nisekoi and got to episode 10. I am really enjoying it so far.
It feels like typical harem style anime but I love the art (I feel it's better than the manga) and I like Shaft's style. I don't think there is anything that is really special or stands out in terms of story but maybe that will change as the story goes along.
Can't wait to see the fourth girl.
