Durarara X2 - 35

Holy crap, that's a lot of happening in one episode. Can't wait to see how this ends. Also for those asking, Mikado is trying to make the Dollars a gang that has so many powerful enemies that no one wants to join. He's now planning to kill himself after getting on the Yakuza and police's shit list.

And unlike Durarara!!, which has finished a few years ago, I think Baccano! is still going.

Isn't it the opposite? Durarara ended but the sequel, Durarara SH is still going. I haven't heard of any new Baccano volumes since 2013.

I actually didn't know that there was a sequel to Durarara. Just saw it on wiki.

And well, wiki at least lists it still as ongoing. I just assumed, I haven't read any of them yet. But since they finally get an english release this year, I will definitly go and buy them. <3

Speaking of trashy harem shows, is Tu Love Ru darkness worth watching? I stopped after the first season.

Darkness is pretty much the smuttiest you can get in an anime before it becomes actual porn. I think only Qwaser, that samurai titty show, and Valkyrie Drive beat it in that regard.
 
Heavy Object Episode 22 A Requiem for the Flowers Blooming in the Field - The Battle to Destroy the Baby Magnum

Qwenthur :( at least it wasnt just the bar itself. Surely engineers would still have to lift some heavy stuff? Frolaytia is at least doube?

Good episode with the plot, I dont think Baby Magnum would need to be destroyed, just get her to eject?

There was an Ohoho doll at the end of the episode, nice.

make sure you post lots of pics and summaries when you watch To Love-Ru Darkness and ship your favourite pairing.

Bubuki Buranki: 11

Solid episode, finally got some more backstory on Reoko and besides that there were some pretty good scenes throughout the episode. At least one of those sisters are starting to think for themselves and hopefully Azuma can come through with the save next episode.
 
Luck & Logic Episode 11

Yes they finally did a BL one since we already had male female and girl girl one (x2) and girl x foreigner as well. I love Over Trance.

Epic episode, everyone using their Logic Drive's were great as well as all the cool attack and poses (I bet they use the poses for their cards). Hope more art was added for the series from the Luck & Logic artists. This is one of the best TCG based anime.

Well, after Chariot also praised Konosuba... I will probably try that out. I finally catched up with most shows which I started and continued for more than 1 episode, so I got some time. Well, let's see if it's as good as everyone says.
 
Haikyuu!! S2 Ep. 24

What an absolutely phenomenal episode.

The music good Lord. The plays, the hustle, the animation, everything. I had goosebumps the entire episode but those last 2 minutes were some next level shit.

Holy shit what a finish. AOTS right there.

RahXephon 9-12

Quon is the worst character. I can't stand her at all. She's basically RahXephon's Rei, but somehow even more weird and annoying. And the show keeps trying to make her appealing or cute, but it miserably fails. And damn episode 12, I have that Lalalala stuck in my head now.
 
I think so. Making Momo the main certainly made it more entertaining to me. I found Lala and her mis-firing inventions just not that entertaining.

Everyone not Lala and Haruna are better and more entertaining. Ditching those two out of spite is the best part of Darkness.

Despite this, Haruna is always #1 in the character polls. Yabuki cannot stop this.

Haruna is basically this comics Onodera. Which I guess is interesting as I like Onodera but don't like Haruna. Have no idea why.

Probably because the Nisekoi competition is all as equally boring and bad as Onodera

edit: except for that tomboy girl. She seems ok via screencaps

Konosuba 01
Okay, we are off to a great start. Facial expressions are already killing me, the main reminds me of Sora from No game No Life (just specialized in RPGs because of the setting) and I already love the humor. Well, it's midnight here now. Let's see if I binge the rest before I go to bed... xD

Heh, episode 1 is one of the weaker Konosuba episodes. :)

Dimension W 05

Blonde vampire twintail disguise, hmm...

Man, really??? Just like that she slipped and fell, COME ON...

That ending was bittersweet though, but at least they moved on and closed the crack in the dimension. I think that makes sense, yeah...

Tamayura: Hitotose


You Know calling this "Cute girl doing cute thing" is actually quite inaccurate. At least when you group it with stuff like Manga Time Kirara adaption (NNB, Gochiusa, Kinmoza). Where they cuteness is greatly exaggerated and otaku pandering. Compare to those. Tamayura character is more "bland" and their activity is quite trivial.

Yet Tamayura invoke much more emotion and feeling than those anime. They feel more "human" you can say. How they interact with environment,The emotion that they feel and Photo that they took seem to be carefully crafted to invoke certain emotion without greatly exaggerated it. Which is crucial thing for a "Healing" Anime.

Tamayura probably the most "Bland" anime that I watch. Yet at same time it invoke emotion and feeling at the right compare to other anime that I watch which sometimes either exaggerated or depreciated it.
