I think Lastory works. That's the only other one with an English pun built in.

Well, can't wait to see if that old Kizumonogatari trailer was just what they asspulled for the annoucement or if it really an indicator how the movie is supposed to look like.

That's actually pretty clever. Too bad, as a newbie, it actually has the reverse effect of keeping me away from the series because of the confusing and slightly daunting naming convention. Well that and shaft.

Cross Ange was amazing. Just don't go in with a weak stomach or a low tolorance to ecchi $hit and your all-set. Let the rest happen organically...
Eureka 7 ep. 32-35:
Renton and Eureka are finally finding common ground and workig together towards a joint future and Holland has decided to finally stop being a douche to Renton all the time. Doggy is not a pilot and Nee-san is that general, my goodness, lots of reveals here. Now that they have that monk guy, I'm wondering what new parts of the mystery will be brought out.
So Crunchy should be able to grab it then?
Yeah. Nisemonogatari also works quite well as "impostory". The rest don't work, though (AFAIK).
That's why Japan invented titles like: Is it Wrong to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?
There was all of one girl being picked up in a dungeon. All the other pickups happened outside of it.

I didn't think it was possible, but Manglobe's closure casts the Gangsta finale in an even more depressing light.

Japan has a weird issue where they have to make words longer then they have to by adding more letters.

No, just no.
Can you please not recommend Cross Ange? This isn't one of those shows you have to "see to believe". I would like nothing more than for this show to fade into obscurity.
It's a horrible, horrible abomination of an anime that basically serves as the poster child for everything wrong with modern mecha anime as of late.
No care was put into that series. No thought or effort was put into it. It just threw offensive one-note characters and imagery at you and thought it could rack up the viewers that way.
It's one of the worst kinds of shows. The kind of show that takes an audience for granted. The kind of show that doesn't care about interesting characters, stories, worlds, and development. It's the kind of show raises a middle finger to any fan of mecha shows that have even a sense of decency to them.
It's nothing but a child throwing a temper tantrum hoping to get attention.
Now do yourself a favour Cornbread, and watch Code Geass. That's a mecha show that's crazy and stupid, but also enjoyable. Why? Because it went insane rather than starting off insane. It had proper build-up, good animation, fantastic music, and legitimately good characters. The shock value came at the end in ways you can't expect.
Seriously, check it out.
Well, watch it sometime after you're finished this masterpiece anyway. =D

This is the Snake Eater of the Monogatari series right? I can't believe it took them this long to make something that seems to matter a lot
Rebellion was better then the main series, truth
Woah now, don't take that as a recommendation.
You should probably watch Cross Ange.

So while warning him to avoid this (supposedly) shit mecha anime, you tell Cornbread to instead watch a mecha anime that turns to shit in it's second season? I'm not sure how that will help him Nman.

It should be as they will still have tons of material for a whole season after 26 more episodes.
They never did recover from the failure of Michiko and Hatchin.

Madoka Rebellion made me fear and hate sequels. Well, sequels to things with great conclusions anyway.
I loved the ending of the original TV series. It's what sealed it as my 2nd favourite show of all time.
Then this film comes along and raises the middle finger to anyone who loved that ending. Screw that noise.
Stories with great conclusions should not get sequels and Code Madoka: Homura of the Rebellion can happily sit alongside Eureka Seven Astral Ocean, Gundam Build Fighters TRY, and Gundam 00 Awakening of the Trailblazer as shit that just should not have been made.
No offense to anybody who enjoys it.

Well, you didn't get the tv ending, so it doesn't surprise that you also didn't get the movie.

That's why I like it, because I only thought Madoka was a 7/10 and had no strong feelings about it.

It will help him because it will teach him what an actual GOOD insane mecha anime is. Code Geass is a show that starts off rather substantially, before slowly losing its mind as the show goes on.
The second season is worth watching because of that.
Unlike Cross Ange, which desperately throws stupid ugly nonsense at you right from the start in a desperate attempt to get attention.
Oh right. My belated but hard earned praise and gratitude for that OP BGBW. Great work.
Champloo, Ergo Proxy and House of Five Leaves are shows I all liked so I'm gonna miss Manglobe, even if their outings as of late leave something to be desired. (to say the least.)
Blood-C 1-3
And I was doing so well avoiding any Clamp related atrocities and their horrendous character designs ...
This show is weird. Really weird. 15 minutes of each episode are SoL'esque bits of the main, awfully designed and braindead character going to walking to school, being in school, being obtuse in school and walking back from school. The last quarter of the episode is spent on fighting a whatever random monster of week sprang up in the small rural city our main character inhabits. One saving grace of it all is the animation during the fights which is pretty good. (though feels weirdly stiff at times.)
Between Wixoss, Samurai Flamenco and this; the "List" is clearly a terrifying existence, one that needs to be purged from this world for the sake of all yet unaffected by it people.

To me, Rebellion works as the perfect ending to the franchise. I'd be perfectly fine with them leaving it there... but I'm sure they have plans to whore it out further. Hell, they already can't help themselves with Nisekoi and Monogatari crossovers. lol
lol
Same here. I actually liked the way presented its "main" story while also having a meta narrative meant to screw with the audience. The whole introductory segment where
everybody was alive and "fighting" enemies together in the mildest way possible, only to later reveal that they were merely given roles inside a fabricated world in order to keep them happy and ignorant of what was actually going on was great, because it kind of screwed around with the people who wanted the girls to finally catch a break after all the sadness and despair they were forced to endure in the main series.

It seems like fall season won't fare so well either.
Only a few seem interesting.
Nah, Fujiko's not the lead of this one.
Well, I am largely indifferent to the end of Manglobe as an anime production company. I do feel slightly sorry for those who have lost their jobs though. For the record, I did legitimately enjoy Samurai Flamenco because Hideyuki Kurata knows how to play around with absurdity and still make it interesting. He should make more original shows.
