Hahaha. Guess that does make me sound a little odd.

In this episode, the newbie Azusa learns the magic of chemistry when performing in a band. She's frustrated that the band spends so much time goofing off, which I frankly don't blame her for. She's a pretty fucking good guitarist (liked the drawing of Plant and Page together when she was playing for them. Wonder how much of the intended audience got that), and she fucking wants to play music, not have tea parties and picnics and play dress-up all the damn time. And she's more advanced than all of them. Yet, she is still impressed when they play together. Why? Chemistry, bitches.

It'll be interesting to see how she fits in going forward given that she seems so turned off by all the goofing off the club does. Will she lighten up, or will the club get serious? Let us (me) find out!

Sentai is now teasing "We still have some things to share with you all. Unfortunately it will have to wait until tomorrow, but you should look forward to it." One of those things has a real good chance of being a Sasami-san license to match a simulcast announcement from TAN, but can't say for 100% certain.

That felt a lot longer than it actually was solely because of the amount of raw emotion going on. It's also a very stressful show in parts;
the stalker scene genuinely felt unsettling
. Very solid episode.

Liked it lots. Not much to add beyond what people have already said.

Aoyama, you're working yourself way too hard. Karma's gonna bite in the-

... yep. Exactly as scripted. I know it's cliche, but it does happen when you push yourself too hard. Always seems to happen on the day you just can't afford to collapse on. In the real world it's because of the amount of stress that comes with the deadline/scheduled event etc. that eventually overtakes you and forces you to succumb to the exhaustion of the body. In anime, it's for plot convenience. ;P

Yay bonding! :3

DID YOU KNOW: Sambomaster's "Sekai wa Sore wo Ai to Yobundaze!" (featured in Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan! 2 and Densha Otoko) plays in the background when the characters go out drinking after work.
Is it me or there was another Sambomaster song in the scene where she is smoking on the roof? Whatever's the case I now feel like playing some Ouendan 2 aka the best video game of all time.

Guys...Guys...Shut up for a sec...

That mature sci-fi anime thread has just reminded me that I'm a pathetic, worthless failure who hasn't watched Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex. How soon should I correct this damning trait of my existence.

Eh, I'll wait till I finish Bebop.

I try to avoid the OT anime threads as much as possible since they almost inevitably degenerate into "new anime is thinly-veiled pedophile bait old anime was for manly men" drivel.

skipped through this and it's safe to say it's no musashi gundoh. what a shame

Well, Musashi Gundoh never had the advantage of CG animation:

This one was a bit more specific in terms of the discussion, so it's been aight so far.

The point is, I haven't seen GitS: SAC yet, and I feel bad.

Wait, so if they breed that means they have "the parts". That means that eyeball creature walks around with his lewd stick. OMG!
Sexual reproductive organs can take more shapes than just sticks. For all we know, the eyeball dude probably spews out his genetic material by the way of his mouth.

Porcelain's avatar seems to be a bird type thingy. He could have a penis like an Argentine duck, but he could also have a cloaca instead. Who knows!

I just realized that skipping frames to conserve file size on the coin gifs masked just how awful the frame rate of the moving coins was. That second gif? Animated on threes. Looks worse than a PS1 FMV in the actual show.

Maturity, bitches.

So each frame was 0.12 seconds in length? That's pretty normal.

From what I've seen (admittedly not a lot and I don't pay too much attention to these things), CG in anime is usually 24fps, or animated on ones. Maybe that's what he means?
 
The petals might have been that fast in the show.

Do people use the filters on purpose on Tumblr? Why do they use them? I always wondered about this.

I believe it cuts down on the file size of the gifs, since there's less colors and such. Just to get around what I also believe a file size limit on gifs like imgur's.

As I like older women in my anime, the protagonist is a godsend and I like her immediately. The art has this Western style going on (large vivacious lips), but it's still inmistakably an anime show.
As with real life, I thought she looked a lot better without makeup. I'm of the opinion that girls should only wear make-up in special occasions, but it's understandable considering her line of work.
