Subtle escalation of events continues as Gabu actually has to attack another wolf to save Mei. I think I brought this up earlier but the show seems better directed as it goes on which is nice.

If this translation is true, I expect at the very lest to get a creepy monologue with the main character describing how he likes feet and got into shoe making in order to protect them and to better understand them. Anything else and I will be disappointed.

The director did a right thing to apologize. Derp faces throughout the whole episode which ruins my enjoyment.

Really good scene how everything turned out and extensive Mahiro Yoshino time was pleasing and made up for the past episode. Think Im really disliking how clinhy Hakaze is becoming and continuously comparing herself to Aika just feels awkward and really rude, at least in front of Mahiro and Yoshino. Still like the Y on Yoshino's vest and the M on Mahiro's jacket and their inner feelings for one another (recognizing each other as strong, for example).

Random thought
if it is an alien weapon to keep people in check and split into both two trees, that was a really interesting idea proposed there and would kind of invalidate how everything would work in Hakaze's favor, I think. Though how would Aika and these mages fit into that scheme

Seriously this girl has an honnest tendancy of being somewhat in the perverted side.
or is it a girly side ?

Anyway ..since antics ..and i learned that our poor homura has to go to school because the bad guys said so ... was that the staff speaking or the writters ?

Also , best docking pairing and cliffanger ending ...

EXCELLENT
Vividyellow is the best vivd :)

Why hasn't duckroll checked this show yet? For someone so adamant on preaching about the future of anime he sure ain't actually watching it!

Not enough action, I'd wager. It's more of a firehawk show anyhow seeing as he introduced us to it and watched (scrubbed?) through the last ep!

Yeeeeeeeeeeeah, it's probably pretty bad that the first thing that came to mind when this scene popped up was that there would probably be fanart of the new girl with Dera proportions.

It looks like someone's been following the "awesome" fanart thread a bit too much!

Wootbit/Kio's encounter was so out of nowhere. Part of the rushing through the beginning, I guess. Kio's naivete and earnestness is sort of nice though as he's acting his age. Popping open the AGE-3 like he did was some Getter Robo shit.

...did they just reuse part of the first OP animation as material for an in-show flashback to events we never actually saw happen?
 
Cardfight!! Vanguard Asia Circuit 81 (eng dub)

Unexpected outcome for Team Quadropholio, but oh well. Liked seeing some of my random favorite cards again, Lozenge Magus, CEO Amatarasu, and the same strategy as ever single girl power episode. Love Ren's personality.

Gundam AGE 31 (continued)

Apologies for the image intensive post This is weird but I wanted to highlight the AGE-3 vs Phantom 3 encounter because it sure felt like someone wanted to get their super robot on. Seems like a lot of extra effects animation was thrown in too. There was hints of this sort of thing in the first arc with the Titus and Spallow hijinx but the second arc felt more traditional in its action for a lack of a better word so this is something of a neat surprise.

This set is in reverse order to better convey the vertical nature of the sequence. Current manifestation of the AGE-3 just simply isn't enough so it's time to separate which leads...

to an overwrought docking sequence with new parts...

and oncludes with a bunch of excessive posing.

Then there's this which just made me think of two words, "Open Get!":

You'll never be able to convince me that Talent Agency Track Meets are things that actually exist and not just a way for the producers to shoe-horn a sports festival into a show that doesn't take place in a high school.

Hey, just because you have a character point out the fundamental problem with your show (and all the harems ever made) doesn't mean that somehow you are absolved the responsibility of writing this bullshit in the first place.

Presumably something is happening soon, but this is Pet Girl tier stalling.

While I agree it's definitely stalling, Kodaka's one of the few protags in recent memory who's obliviousness is actually semi-believable. I mean, as he said in the episode plainly, it stands to reason he would believe making a girlfriend is totally out of his reach if he can't make any regular friends. Basically an inferiority complex causing him to not notice the obvious as he brushes it off as something else.

Don't even address Dique 3 as anything other than Dique 3

Record of Lodoss War 4

So the main villain is Ganondorf (and he's being controlled by Edea) and Spock is his chief sorceror. Also we meet Fianna, whose stated job class is Princess, but I'm betting its more along the lines of Romantic False Lead, and she'll be around to create tension between Parn and Deed. Oh! They have an official Forest of No Return tm! Niiiiice. Slayn asks Gim if he should be doing his homework and GIM DOES NOT CARE. The Forest of No Return is also home to an acid trip and may in fact be Deed's homeland. And Sephiroth is the black knight who will inevitably betray Ganon.

The crazy thing about Lodoss is that people are always legendary but not dead. It's kind of cute in a way.
 
CODE:BREAKER OVA 1

Loved extras. Had already read about the chocolate one since it was from the manga if I remember, even Toki and his finger licking scene and what not, though all that fanservice of the females (Kanda and Sakurakouji) But toki had such great moments and Ogami. Wish Yuuki was around.

I miss code breaker anime.
 
If this isn't how nuns are supposed to work I'd rather not know what it's supposed to be.

I don't mean how they're acting. I can suspend my disbelief for rude and obnoxious nuns or even ones that wield giant gatling guns. But once they imply they want a relationship, immersion broken!

Mobile Suit Gundam 37

I love how genre savvy Amuro has become. He knows red mecha are Char's now, and knows better than to think he could kill Char so easily. The music during the fight was really good, a nice instrumentation of the main theme. I wish Char had a cooler mecha, though. I know, I know, I'm so used to the villain having a Red Gundam in other Gundam series that I want that subconsciously, but really, Zakus and Gogs and GelGOOGs and Goufs aren't that cool looking.

I mean, they're great for grunt units, but for a guy as flashy as Char, something seems lacking, that's all I'm saying.

So Char and Seyla's father planned to make all mankind into Newtypes. Which is like Dr. Hibiki's plan from Gundam SEED, except not crazy mad scientisty, and like Ezelcant's plan, except not stupid and contrived. HAHAHA and Char wears the mask because he discarded his identity! Oh man, Char x Seyla is HUGE in this episode.
