Read the short story for I want to eat your pancreas. Wonder how the adaptation for the short story will go. I'm looking forward to it.

Haman that low, thats some beyond garbage tier taste. Dunno what I expected from Gundam fans though
I'm not surprised. Relena is one of the major perspective characters of Wing and has some major story arcs centered around her where the Gundam pilots serve as supporting characters. She is written as a main character in Wing's ensemble cast, and thus experiences a lot of conflict and growth across the series. In a franchise where most women are side characters, love interests, or objects of the writers' scorn, Relena stands out.
For similar reasons, I am not surprised to see main villains like Haman or Cima on the list.
Likewise, I am not surprised to see the Reccoa and Nina topping the hated list.
Yeah I agree that scene was rather bad and the episode was rather nice before it
It's honestly my main thing against the show

Against my better judgment I had UBW running as I was working from home today and watched the rest of it.
Ughhhh it just did not work for me.
Everytime Shirou opened his mouth, I just wanted him to die just because his dialogue is SO cringey and his actions are just awful all around. He could have gotten Rin skewered by Gilgamesh when he decided to open his mouth after Gil kills Illya and he just shrugs it off after like "welp I just wanted to help even though I can't do shit".
Shinji - why is this guy even in this show? He's awful in all of the least interesting ways that I applauded when Gil screwed him.
Gilgamesh was cooler in Zero when he was just fucking around instead of the generic anime destroyer of worlds guy that he was here.
I still enjoyed Archer, Saber, and Rin to a lesser extent but this show definitely turned me off to anything else in this series if it isn't called Fate/Zero.

New Game S2 ep.5
Water levels are pretty tough to balance, huh? Looks like we have a new friend that will be added to the cast as well. Either way, another cute episode.

So Guru Guru 2017 shrunk the same material from Guru Guru 1994 from 21/22 episodes into 5....even at this pace it will not be able to cover everything in the manga without dropping even more.

Sorry to hear you didn't enjoy it, though your appraisal of the show certainly sounds like most of the impressions you see of it here. As much of a Fate fan as I am, I can say with a fair amount of confidence if you didn't enjoy Nasu's storytelling in UBW, you're probably right not to continue into other Fate adaptations apart from Zero... at least outside of Fate/strange fake when that inevitably gets an adaptation, but that depends on how much you like Ryogo Narita's writing (of Baccano and DuRaRaRa fame). Still, sorry if you felt like you wasted your time.
Well, buckle up when you see the actual ending because the final pairing apparently pissed off alot of fans lol. I was fine with it though

That makes sense. I just made it to the point where Relena is more actively getting involved in the series' politics so I can see why that would resonate with female fans.

If you liked the character dynamics and dialogue of Fate/Zero you might want to check out Thunderbolt Fantasy by the same writer, which does all that even better as far as I'm concerned. Now, that's not strictly speaking anime but rather a, quote, "Japanese-Taiwanese glove puppetry television series", but that in itself made for a unique experience and lots of folks here enjoyed it thoroughly.
I think it even placed on the 2016 GAF AotY Top10 but not sure.

School Rumble S2 ep.25-END
I know I was warned about the non-ending before I started, but not a single plotline through 52 episodes was completed; not even close.... Not a single ship was set sail or sank along the way...
*sigh* this is how I'm feeling:
Anyhow, shit ending aside, the show was a ton of fun from start to finish with ridiculously stupid characters, crazy hijinks and hilariously dumb misunderstandings to carry the main plot along through both seasons.
What a crazy-fun ride!
THAT is how they decided to end the anime? THAT is how? What the fuck was THAT?

Jesus christ Mana sounds horrid, but what do you expect when you get Candy to voice the main character.
And then I found out she's also JIMMY NEUTRON

i respect your choice of uzuki as no1, but id personally place shiburin in her place. also CGproducer needs to be higher. he is pretty damn awesome having to put up with all of the girls lol.
Anzu is actually the best. Except maybe Ranko. Maybe.
Uzuki is good too, though. Ganbaru's jike a champ.

Well technically it ended with two OVA episodes that skip like 80 chapters to the end of the manga. But I don't think Funimation has those since they came with the original manga.

It's a shame bevause the show is really fun. Makes you wonder why tgey never finished annimating the rest of the story to the finish line.
I looked around and couldn't find them, but MAL says they exist, lol.

Oh Kei. How can Soma say you are not going to suffer when that's exactly what is going to happen next episode. I'm interested to see how they close this show out with all the conflicting parties present.

I loved this series. I adored it... Then the manga "ended" and... sigh, it really soured me on everything. It was clear that the creator wanted to work on something else, so an ending was half assed and rushed out.

Member
Ouch, that's a shame. What volume of the manga did they off at with the anime? Is it worth a read?
Now, I just need to find a new comedy to replace School Rumble with..
I skipped stopped after S1 of Baka to Test, so maybe I should go back to that one..

Yep. It's one of my top three animes despite the ending. In fact I am definitely going to rewatch it soon.
I think out of the 22 volumes, the anime (not counting the OVAs that skip to the end) only covers somewhere up to volume 13.

All I have to say is good luck adapting this.
It can be done but man will it be hard giving justice to this horror series. You need really good direction.
The visual looks great tho.
Edit: Also what's up with old stuff getting adapted lately lol? Surely Vagabond will get adapted one day.
pls be good pls be good pls be good pls be good pls be good pls be good pls be good pls be good pls be good pls be good pls be good pls be good pls be good pls be good pls be good pls be good pls be good pls be good pls be good pls be good pls be good pls be good pls be good pls be good

You have Uzuki as number one but you've insulted Anzu at the same time.
I am conflicted.
So is this show like a rip-off/inferior version of prison school with a gross pedophile friend character?
KirbYuuYuu
Member
Oh I just saw the 3 friends of the guy and they all looked like low rent versions of the friends from prison school minus the ant guy. Unless fat guy, glasses guy, and blonde guy friends is a thing in anime.
When Rin grows to fully appreciate her profession, she might place higher. As for the producer, he may be putting up with amateur hour but it's Kirari that handles Anzu's absenteeism and it's Minami that holds Anastasia's hand. He's bad at communicating, and the longer that goes on the less I can sympathize with it. Although, it does set a precedence for the idols to develop without the producer as the catalyst.
I hope this means she redeems herself.
My opinion of Ranko improved after finding her to be more tolerable than her contemporaries of delusions.

Just where are the security personnel on these premises? My suspicion that Miria is only putting on an act continues to grow... I'm getting a sinister vibe from her unsettling innocence. Also, when will Kaede be properly introduced?

Did the original anime not cover the whole source material? If that's the case I might have to read the source material.

Guru Guru 1994 covered up to Vol 4, Guru Guru 2000 (which has horrible Chinese to English subs for 2/3rds of it, subs that you can tell are wrong) Covered up to Vol 11 and there are 16 volumes total. Manga is 95% untranslated so....yeah.
