Winter of Anime 2013 |OT -6| How much lower can we go?!

Anime killed anime.

Anime killed its father and married its mother.

Edit: Actually anime pretended to poison herself, but upon awakening next to her suicided lover killed herself for real.

No, anime threw himself from a cliff when he saw the boat returning without its sail's hissed.

Wait, anime tried to show off in front of a cat and transformed itself into a mouse and got eaten.

I guess anime collapsed and died after a 42 mile run to deliver the message of an approaching army.

But I also heard that anime died in his castle Xanadu while whispering its last word :"Rosebud"

Man, knowing what's coming makes reading some of your posts infuriating, haha. I want to say and talk about so much. You'll get to the point where we can have a real MSG discussion soon, and I cannot wait.

It's a pretty good show so far.

You are approaching a massive cliff. You have an opportunity to pull out now. You don't have to do this man. You don't have to sacrifice yourself.

Well, Part 3 has some good points. AGE-3 and anything derived from it are pretty nice looking suits and AGE-2 Dark Hound is quite awesome as well.

AGE-2 was okay for the five seconds it appears in the last episode of the second arc. AGE-3 was a return to ugly/dumb.

The third arc was sort of okay because
Asemu and Kio hate Flit.
then it sucks because Flit is never punished for 70 years of hatred and warcrimes.
 
Dang, no Kayos for a while. Who am I going to fake argue with now?

Seriously, man, good luck with whatever's going on. Hope you can get it over with and get yourself back to normal in a fairly quick time.

I can fake argue with you some time.

You see I'm French, so I can complain about anything without prior knowldege of it -it's kind of a faction bonus for us- so feel free to argue with me when I'm around.

AGE-3 and FX are awesome, bulky suits we haven't really got to see a main character use since ZZ. They are both awesome. Love that big ass cannon. If I had one complaint about AGE-3, it would be that it's too maneuverable. I want some main gundams built like tanks. They don't always have to be so hyper fast and close combat focussed.

Subete no aware
I suppose that is the case, but then again I apparently have no soul as ToraDora didn't do it for me and not even watching Heartcatch will mend my relationship with Regulus as a result. :/
Honestly, I don't know if Toradora would hold up for me nowadays. It's easy to get caught up in it when you don't know what is coming at least.

Anime is its own cousin.

I think Anno finally became so fed up with it that he just drove it off a cliff.

So now we're all piles of
goo

Humanity Has Declined 3

Wow Y is easily one of the best female characters Ive ever encountered, such amazing ideas stimulating an awesome revolution with huge influence, I think we like similar manga. So far the best episode, I want to read cinnamon and campherwood and the others too. Poor assistant hiding though. Such a happy episode, couldn't stop smiling the whole time I was watching.

Is DTL actually praising a female anime character? Wow, Humanity has Declined has accomplished a miracle.

Y pretty much started a revolution of yaoi manga/doujinshi and fujoshi in a world with practically no entertainment. That's praise worthy no matter who you are. Also Miyuki Sawashiro.

Obari directed OP? Yes please.
"The military found this AGE device and gave it to me." God damn it, Flit.
Not feeling Kio so far either. Super strong newtype X-Rounder ability and a big bulky suit leads me to believe I'm gonna get ZZ'd smh

At first I was surprised at the praise of Y, then I kept reading.

Sunrise, why can't I have a bulky main suit in a show that's not terrible? Why is that too much to ask?

Judau and Kio couldn't be more different. You'll see why soon.

Kio is like Kira if Kira had never had character development. Flit is Rau Le Creuset.

Record of Lodoss War 2

Basic origin story told here folks. Parn's hometown came under attack by some Goblins and he remembered he wanted to be a LEGENDARY HOLY KNIGHT like Agrias Oaks or his dad. Then he teamed up with Slayn the Wizard, Gim the Dwarf, and Ato the Priest (Deedlit the Elf babe hasn't joined yet.) and they started a hair metal band or something to rock those goblins away from the thatched roof cottages. Pretty sure I remember this show ending with Parn going toe-to-toe with the Burninator.

You'd think so......but.........Judau actually kind of gets more tolerable as ZZ goes on. Kio only gets worse. There's a particular shift that goes on part way through Part 3 that makes him even more intolerable.

I could probably handle ZZ nowadays. Tried to watch it directly after my first viewing of Zeta back in the day and I couldn't handle that shift in tone.

Best Gundam character is Treize Kushrenada. And he's in Wing. SEED' only interesting point is pink zakus for girls.

Really? Wing as a show is mostly intolerable. Even whiny original Amuro is better than what wing has. Give me old Amuro any day as a hero. As a character in general, though, you cannot beat Char. You just can't.

Why are you all talking about awful Gundam series?

Watch Unicorn.

Unicorn as a story hasn't been amazing so far. Marida's story has been the only real highlight. The main story has felt like a big delay tactic for the final bit here.

As an action piece, though, Unicorn is freaking fantastic.

can't say no to the Ord.

This man has taste. As far as Char clone's/masked men go, you cannot be Ord. Part of what made Turn A so fantastic.

Maybe it's because it's my first Gundam series, but Wing is my favorite, closely seconded by G Gundam.

I didn't see yet the UC series, so I wouldn't know about Char, but Treize is cool. Hehas like roses or whatever he's true Gundam Knight. You just cannot hate on him.

I think it may help. I watched ZZ a few months after Zeta and liked it a lot. It helped me regain my confidence in anime after finishing Sword Art Online a few days before.

Treize is the least awful part of W, but he still cannot compare to the mastery of char.


I'll take a full 50 episode Unicorn series (Banagher dies in ep5) over Wing/SEED/00/Age.

Hmmmm. If I could get a full series in the style/quality of 00 Season 1, I'd probably take that over Unicorn. Take as a whole, yeah, more Unicorn would be better than Wing/SEED/Full 00/or Age

You'll be surprised how often the AU shows go back to the UC well once you do watch UC series.
