Hosanna my bro, I've known of the glory that is Rider for a while. This episode just went and cemented it for eternity.
Sure, if I sell a kidney or something. Trouble is I'm sorta using it right now.
Sort of I guess. But it isn't really skit based. Or at least I don't remember it being. It's been a while since I saw it though.

Gurren Lagann.
I think the other problem was that both crossover chapters were in the same issue of Jump, but the Gintama episode aired a few days earlier than the Sket Dance one and used both its own material and some of the jokes from the Sket Dance chapter, leaving the Sket Dance episode to fill a half hour with less than a chapter's worth of material, and the original scenario they used just wasn't strong enough.

You mean the intro by Hibiki's grave (not a spoiler because it's literally the first thing you see)? I'm thinking that might be a fake-out, but we'll have to wait for the last episode.
Yeah, definitely agree. The meta-commentary helped, but couldn't save it completely. All together, though, it's just that I feel the pros outweigh the cons, in this case.
Waiting in the Summer 5
This is really two different shows. The tedious and somewhat boring one that occurs when the two leads are alone, and the fun high school romcom that happens when the supporting cast appears. Thankfully they played a large role in this episode.
The background art and lighting also continues to make this show look very pretty.

Where did I say PSG was actually a good show? They wanted something like Dead Leaves and I pointed them in the right direction.
Both Dead Leaves and PSG are just as juvenile as each other.
So basically, its like Ai Yori Aoshi (except in that show the good parts were when the two leads were alone and the shit parts were when the harem was involved)
Lemon is BOSS-TIER though. For sure.

Ah. My bad, I assumed you were saying that.
But still, dat Nichijou backhand. C'mon son, you're killing me.

If Korra is anime then what does that make Panty & Stocking?
It's obviously a western cartoon since it looks like one.
The Power Puff Girls sequel nobody wanted.
imagine nichijou but without any of the
sparse
Moyashimon's confirmed, so that would only leave something past summer. Do they usually do that?

And speaking of anime announcements, where the hell is Blood Lad? The green-light announcement is going on a year old at this point.

Birdy Decode S2 5
Damn, that dog furry sure knows how to fight.

A retreat seemed like a bad idea considering Birdy's condition.

D'aaaaaw.
Sounds bad, man.
Chair: I'm tired of people sitting on me! I'm gonna sit on them!
PPGZ: Don't do that anymore!
Chair: Okay...
Next time: Pencils
Uuuuuuugh!
The guests for the show will be the voice cast from Apollon and Tsuritama, and the music performers. There will be live performances of a jazz piece from Apollon, and the music from the Tsuritama PV. Then they are going to announce the new shows in Summer and Fall, including 2 shows for Fall which we have no hints about.
Nope. They are two unannounced Fall shows that have yet to be revealed!
Anyone want to place bets on what they are? I'm betting on one of them being a new Maasaki yuasa show by studio MAPPA!!
Haha, you're right. Wow. So it's tertiary!

It was there to make you click the thread. It worked.
something influenced by the terribly unfunny drawn together
no announcement could possibly live up to shirogane no hana imo
yeah, i really wouldn't recommend it

Fate/Zero 9:
After the last arc, a denouement episode. Background on Lancer, who was the other historical figure I was unfamiliar with as I'm not exactly versed in Irish (Celtic) mythology. As is usual, Wikipedia gave me some useful background information about Diarmuid Ua Duibhne which made understanding the background information given on Lancer in this episode much easier.
Waver and Rider have a pretty significant role in this episode as well. I have to say that the Japanese certainly have an amusing image of Alexander the Great if Rider is anything to go by. For those curious about the usage of his name in this show, Iskander is the Persian (Farsi) spelling of Alexander. Rider is pretty awesome and hilarious though and more than makes up for how wimpy and clearly way in over his head Waver is.

They're going to commission the original artist to draw a a picture of the lead in a bikini for the new cover art.
Sunrise didn't have anymore money because of Gundam Age. Damn you Hino! :shakesfist]:
