They might not answer if I asked straight. I'm thinking, "Mr. Nakashima, how would you compare the writing process for Gurren Lagann against Kill La Kill? I understand the production restraints but I was wondering how that affected your writing process."

That would be good considering what I've garnered about TTGL from the box set interviews. That stuff was really interesting.

So the video stream of the Sailor Moon panel has been cut so the episodes wouldn't be shown.

Time to HULK SMASH.

I hope Viz puts them up on Hulu soon.

I'm gonna watch SAO II simply as a means of knowing what I'm talking about if I decide to rail on it or on the off chance I might enjoy it.

Is anyone familiar with the film, Giovanni's Island? ジョバンニの島

I'm curious to know if it will be released in English? Google Search brings up nothing.

SAO II EP1

Pretty good story/plot introduction episode. Not as strong a first episode as the first season's but that would be hard to top. Really interesting exchange about making the virtual world and real world closer together and merging the lines between them. Cajunator will be disappointed that Sinon is only in the last two minutes of this episode.

I guess the whole crew is ganging up to defeat the snake which is nice. I still do love the art style that shaft is using. That song that was being sung by Momo was great, I really enjoyed it. And that Shintaro and Ayane reunion.

Hahaha! Even the first time around, really? And Ryûko somehow thinks that was Satsuki? Should have gone with a black silhouette, à la Conan...

Haha wow. I thought it was intentionally making the viewer think it was Satsuki. Looks like I gave them too much credit lol.

This is stupid, should've left it the way it was. Hopefully they plan their next original show out a bit better.

It makes sense guys. The third flashback must have been a mistake.

Here is the first flashback in episode one. This was not changed on the BD:

Notice how it's a vague character. It's kinda like Satsuki and it's also kinda like Nui. Now, I don't know what they plan was at this stage but at least it's vague.

Here is the second flash back in episode 8 when Ryuko is talking to Mako about what happened. This one was NOT changed on the BD! They kept this one the same for a reason.

Now you see Ryuko's memory makes the vague person from the first flashback look like Satsuki because that's who she now thinks was the killer. This is before Nui is introduced.

Here is the third and final flashback as it appears on the BluRay release. This is the only flashback that was changed. The fact that this one looked like the previous one on the TV broadcast was a mistake.

This fits because having just learned from Nui that she was the actual killer, Ryuko's flashback in her head now changes to be Nui because she realizes her previous flashback was wrong.

It all makes sense because memories are fallible. Our memories tend to twist and change and become distorted as time goes on or new information is introduced.

Now, if Trigger had changed the first or second flashback to also look like Nui then that would been really confusing and dumb because it clearly doesn't look like Satsuki but they didn't. They only changed the final flashback in episode after Nui reveals she's the killer. That may not have been the plan but at least the change doesn't conflict with the narrative.

Rail Wars! 1

Opening: Passable. Unsure if I'll give the full version a chance or not.
Ending: Meh. I'll just skip this entirely to the end cards.

The waifu potential in this show is strong.

Personally liking Brown more so than Red right now. Fully support her being the brains of the team alongside MC since it makes it likely for more cute moments with her obvious crush.

Red is not that far behind, but I'm rather wary of her turning into an average tsundere towards the male lead as the show goes on.

Would like her to remain as the man hater she is, but I know that just isn't likely.

Sword Art Online II ep 1

faintingslkh5.gif


He hast returned motherfuckers.

The Japanese government have their incompetant hands full with these incidents and it's up to the Batman of gaming Kirito to put a end to these killings cause he is the hero Japan deserves and the one they need right now. They will begged him. Because he can take it. Because he's not just our hero. He's a silent guardian. A watchful protector. A Beater.

In other words I got nothing to say since the first episode is a set up to the GGO arc. How is it those top dead players that rakes in the cash still live in a dirty run down apartments? Gawddamn use the money to hire a cleaner or live in a better aparement or something. RIP Hiroshi Kamiya.

I can see the budget has been upped judging by the OP sakuga, A1 can afford it since SAO rake in for them billions of yen.

It's certainly very shoujo. I have yet to watch the original Sailor Moon but, it certainly seems like they didn't butcher it. I think I can probably enjoy this.

lol already finished watching on Aldnoah on Daisuki

Aldnoah 1

Which Terran leader was the genius who thought it would be a good idea to instigate another war with a civilization who has the power to destroy half the moon?

Aldnoah 01


This was really good. Basic premise is Humans found technology on Mars to advance humanity and colonize Mars (lol Mass Effect). An entirely different race of humans that supposedly have left Earth and are returning want this technology for themselves and a war starts.

This episode was mostly building up the plot and characters with a really fantastic landing scene from the aliens at the end of the episode. Really looking forward to seeing more of this,

I'm going to guess it was the aliens who attacked her based on what some of the knights were saying. (They want to start a war to claim Earth, they just need an excuse)
