Haven't seen Girl's Bravo, but Shuffle! takes an interesting turn from the happy-go-lucky victory pantsu atmosphere it starts with.

All these feels. I can't. Which is surprising given how short an amount of time they had to
Testament to the pacing, or writing, perhaps.
I'm beginning to see that I may have underestimated this ish greatly.

flesh Sachi and Kirito's relationship out enough to give her death some impact, but they did. They actually did.

Pretty sure the abyss goes deeper.

The first season is kind of amusing. The last half is pretty much straight garbage,

If you want some ecchi garbage, you should watch Green Green. Or just watch this clip, which is probably the most worthwhile scene in the whole show: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=erDQzgUn8-w(59sec)
First half of Shuffle is the most boring harem anime ever, but the second half is quite a bit of fun as the perfect image everyone has cracks.
But let's not beat around the bush. If you want real garbage, you want Eiken.
I'm glad you're enjoying it, but wow, you're out of step with the general consensus on animeGAF/ToonamiGAF on these eps lol
They're both good. Girl's Bravo is probably a little better than Shuffle but I enjoyed both. If you want real garbage then something like Eiken would be a better choice. But I really like all of Da Capo so I'm probably not someone you should trust on that.
Yeah, the second half of shuffle is kinda alright. Way, way over the top, but kinda alright, still.
Was averse to it myself, for a while. Just didn't at all seem like something I'd dig.
Glad I did check it out, though. I can tell that it's burning through material like a flame to a notebook too. I'm a much bigger fan of faster pacing, but there's moments in here where nothing resonates because they're moving so fast.

Get out.

Wow, someone agrees with me! Though I think character development is the larger problem than plot. After all the hype the movie left me empty and feeling that it wasn't anywhere near as good as the TV series.
For reals, what the hell is wrong with you people?
Regulus Tera
Romanes Eunt Domus
That's because School Days is adapted from a bad H-Game.

No that's what we need in our lives. Eiken looks absolutely revolting but 2 episodes isn't too bad. I need stuff to fill the voids until Thursdays.
Edit: And thanks for all the replies. Gonna check out Shuffle first.

That's exactly what the show is, so you're right on track.
I once said those same words.
Famous last words.
If you really want some complete garbage series then something like Cosprayers or Smash Hit would be "good" choices.

Eiken was a depressing experience to say the least.

Mad Bull 34 03
As traditional with MB34 we get more rape and depravity and Mad Bull being a fucking tank (lol)
I still am having a hard time understanding the motives of Coffee guy. What does he see in helping Mad Bull?
Also lol @ the ending. Sleepy the nice guy.
Chinese assassins truly is the greatest gift this show has given us so far. I just died laughing every time they were on screen. The person in charge for the dub should be commended too for that.
NTR NTR NTR

It's one of the greatest triumphs of US dubbing for what it's worth.
That bad huh
Watched 16 episodes of Majestic Prince so far. I'm enjoying it way too much and not really sure why. (><)
Still trying to catch up on Titans, at 9 episode now, 8 episode was great, 9 somewhat not, or it just didn't meet my expectations.
What's watchable in the summer season, new I mean, moe and fanservice free more or less?
Mad Bull? What's that? not sure I ever heard of it.

I wouldn't say it'a exactly fan service free.

I'd say it's close enough.

Thanks, I'll check it.
Irregardless, Uchoten Kazoku is a fantastic show. Good recommendation.

The artwork is good, but the story and characters are terrible. Contrived and melodramatic for no reason.
I watched one episode and dropped it. Strategy seems to have worked out so far, I've never heard good things about something I decided to drop one episode in.

I heard it gets better after ep 7. Back to Paranoia Agent for now.
Huh, the story are pretty vanilla.

It feels like something that doesn't know if its trying to be a young girls show or trying to appeal to otaku.
Passive Assassin

Yeah. I set my expectations way too high for this one.
So nice to be in my own bed again and get some regular sleep. I've been running off of fumes for the last three days or so. Anyway this was my big success from Otakon even though it ruined my sleep schedule for the weekend (I had to wake up between 4 and 6 the entire weekend).

For what it's worth, it has one of the catchiest OPs in recent years.
There are actually. but some for great reasons and some for very...special reasons.
I agree on these Seda. these are excellent shows. All three of them are quite special series and Im pretty confident you will enjoy them.
The LIST is a clearly defined set of shows that have something memorable about them. they might not be the most well made and recommendations for them might not be serious, but you WILL remember those and they will have an impact, whether its hilarious or mind altering lol.
Thats a good one actually. Short, easy to watch, and entertaining.
But then theres nobody left to enlighten! It wouldnt be fun.
I have a soft spot for Rock a Doodle. Yeah it was terrible but its one of my childhood movie memories. Its shared with the likes of Rescuers down Under and Secret of Nimh, so not all is lost!
While not quite true it is perhaps the purest example of the genre. no compromises.
You are a nice person Chet. No worries. *hugs Chet and gives him a penguin with boobs

PVs and news from the weekend that I don't think we've covered yet, thanks as always to Moonphase for aggregating links:
Tokyo Ravens looks suitably like Kaze no Stigma, Tokyo Underground, and pretty much every other urban fantasy manga adaptation ever. Plus CG mech things!
Nagi no Asukara has beautiful background art, but looks unfortunately like low-tier PA Works (it's very reminiscent of RDG and presumably uses the same staff). The trailer also gives as little away about the presumably supernatural elements of the story as possible - or, in fact, if there's much animation in the show at all...
Plus, as I believe ANN has covered, there's an official announcement of an anime for Donten ni Warau ("Smiling on a Cloudy Day"). Meiji-era slashy supernatural samurai brothers, judging by the plot synopses I've read - DTL have you read the manga for this?

When PA works+adaption=low tier
Fortunately Nagi no Asukara is original,so i won't worry about it

But their best show so far is an adaptation, and their worst show so far is original...

You can't say that after Uchouten Kazoku.
Thats really quite sad if true. Ashamed of my countrymen
This is how it begins. You wont like how it ends...
Girls Bravo is pretty terrible but its very entertaining and extremely cute.
Yes. Eiken is the true abyss. Beware.
Lesser words have led men to their doom.
Its not THAT bad its just mediocre. but Utao is a cutie.
Isn't that just from that tumblr where that guy makes deliberately bad imitations of animated movie scenes?
