And yet it doesn't seem like you'll stop watching this show.
I'm surprised you didn't comment on Miya doing the nishishi laugh even in childhood. I thought that was really amusing. And a magic spell to make someone into a meat bun?
I'm still enjoying this show. I also like Ryouko Shintani's VA so that's a plus.

I was about to say a similar response.
Of all the shows I've been keeping up with in a timely fashion, Amagami SS is one of them. So strange.
They could still tell the story through Rihoko entirely, but I guess they got lazy when they had to fulfill their daily quota of giving all girls their usual time onscreen.
It was a genuinely good episode and could be the best arc so far. If only they were more creative with each girls' appearance.Joule said:
Young Miya was hilarious. Meat buns are good but they can be quite fattening.

Infinite Ryvius 26 :
Well, I see this played how out largely how one might expect with Kouji/Jesus making his grand gesture.
Some strange late game revelations I suppose, largely relating to Neya. Oh, and Ikumi, did you just say you had incestuous feelings for your sister?
Blue managed to be bad-ass again, even if he was in the episode for like forty seconds.
Also, the whole last battle was kind of weak. We never really understood the mechanics behind the enemy ship or how it would ever be possible to beat it. It was just REALLY STRONG and kept on HEALING. That's a bit lame.

The end, and afterwards. A lot of which seems all right, Kouji being different, hanging out with Aoi and all that.
Although girls did ask for Yuki's autograph : further proof that this whole universe is retarded if people think Yuki is awesome. I can't accept this for one moment.
The show had pretty explicitly mentioned that the Ryvius was immobile before, so I'm not surprised that they required the crew again.
Still, a number of these candidates seem...questionable. I do believe that some of them should be in prison, counselling, or counselling in prison.

Does anyone here buy figures? I'd like to know what sites you use. So far I've found 1999/HobbySearch, Amiami, HLJ, and Otacute - these sites have the figures that I'd like to buy but their prices are actually pretty different, and maybe I could find better deals or cheaper shipping somewhere else that I don't know of.
I'd ask in the GAF figure thread but it's mostly dead.

He did indeed. In fact he implied they were reciprocal. I suppose it does explain the odd thing of him always remembering his sister naked, though. I had just been assuming it was an anime thing.
I assumed the point of the enemy ship was that it defied conventional logic. Which is why Heigar freaked out.

To be fair, at least those girl didn't know Yuki personally. It's the ones who know him still liking him that's inexplicable.
Well, at least Faina wasn't on the ship, apparently. I don't understand the logic of not having adults on board as well though.
Seeing Kouji punch someone was nice.

Subete no aware
I didn't mind her voice for the most part, but it was very unusual sounding. The narrator made it the best arc though. :lolSolune said:
Yeah, I've already slowed down on a lot from this season but I still want to watch this. I mean, I think the premise is insidious but I keep tuning in just in case they do something insane - like the dude tripping balls in the last arc.Joule said:
The nishishi laugh will be the next big thing, surely!Geneijin said:
That episode of PSG was something special.
I'm trying to find more information on Takashi Mukoda, but all I see are a couple of mentions on Anipages. No ANN profile on him yet. Did he work on Kemonozume too?
Edit: 2 minutes later I find this. Problem solved.

Yosuga no Sora 4 (Kazuha arc): Not bad. I guess the ending was pretty obvious but hey, at least Haruka scored!
To bad they're rewinding to episode 2 next week. So that allows them to, what, go through 4 girl arcs in total? Maybe 5.

Times are changing!
I guess people are sick of the hero dicking around with all the girls and never picking so instead of just going with one girl this format lets the producers explore all of them!
Also that many more sex scenes. I wonder if Yosuga no Sora is going to have an uncensored version.
The next step would be bromance arcs.

WTF was with the second episode?

Episode 9: Honestly, probably the first episode I wasn't too crazy about. The entire fight with the ghost was pretty awesome at least, but other than that, meh
Episode 10: I... um... well that certainly was something completely different. Awesome, but different. And yet it somehow fits into this show like a glove :lol

Pokémon Best Wishes! 7: Why are the generic routes between towns always forests? I never see mountainous paths, deserts, or even highways. Also, Smugleaf is so tsundere for Ash.
Heartcatch Precure! 7: Girl dresses like boy but wants to be girly, that's new. Tsubomi is gay?

Why do you keep lying? This is a shitty ass Studio Deen anime. It has nothing to do with what any normal person would consider the "ROD staff" which would be Koji Masunari and Hideyuki Kurata working together. No one cares if Kurata is writing another crappy manga adaptation or if Masashi Ishihama is doing the animation character designs.
You got me all excited for nothing, nor go to the corner and stand there as punishment.

We agree on a few things, then -- incest fanservice is awful and I don't want to watch that either, and this season is not good.
At least it's looking better than last season, though. I don' think I got past three or four episodes of any of last season's shows... I will watch more than that this season.
As for Index II, I didn't watch the first season, but I did watch the first six or seven episodes of Railgun. It was alright but not great, and I lost interest after a while. I doubt Index II would be any better, so I haven't watched it.

I'm watching Macross Frontier the movie and was shocked to discover
Macross Plus back in the timeline. WTF?

My Japanese teacher didn't even want us to watch anime at home. She said we'd pick up bad habits.

That is so awesome. Makes we wish I'd taken my art more seriously and stuck with it. Maybe I'll get a tablet and pick up drawing again.

When was it ever out of the timeline?
What I found more perplexing was that in the space of 50 years there were apparently only 4 notable singers.

Still, Ikumi did go around shooting everyone and Heigar nearly had a whole section of people killed in his madness. I don't know if I'd want to be riding with them any-time soon.

Yays, not so different after all!A Black Falcon said:
Index is kinda worse than Railgun, Railgun was more consistent with it's quality while Index fluctuates all over the place. Like I said, watching Index is more about seeing it through than the anime being legitimately good, I know some good things are coming up so I'll suffer through the bad parts to see them, that kind of thing. But I don't see how it can be worse than fucking Samurai Girls, but whatever.
Railgun, Index, OreImo, Samurai Girls and so many other shows, you know what I hate the most that they have in common? The fucking male lead that falls on the female and lands in some embarrassing position usually with a hand or two on a breast or his face in their panties or some combination of the two. I'm no expert in falling and haven't fallen in a long time, outside of work where my vehicle stops every once in a while and throws me off the piece of shit, but of all the times I've ever fallen onto or towards someone's general direction I instinctively avoid that, I either don't want to be an ass and take them down with me or don't want to be a bigger ass and grab a breast or land my face into some dude's cock, either way I think a normal, competent, reasonably intelligent male would have to purposely fall on a woman to end up in that position, it just doesn't really happen on accident. It drives me nuts when I see this in anime as it's as implausible as vampires when it happens once and more unrealistic than time travel, aliens, magic, whatever when there's a character who does it repeatedly. Seriously. Show of hands from guys who have "accidentally" fallen onto a girl, or boy really, like that. Any? And if you did it on purpose put your hand back down. That's what I thought. This is probably the most unrealistic depiction of human behavior I see in anime.
It's even more absurd when it's someone like Touma from Index or some other character who at this point is reasonably nimble through fighting that they should be able to avoid being drug down by a girl half their weight or feel the need to brace their own fall with their tits.
That said I can't help but finish Index and as much as I hate to say it I actually like Misaka even though she's a middle schooler as much as it pains me to say so.
Hell yes, the Rugby episode is the best.Salazar said:
And yes, the silver haired girl will leave soon, don't drop it because of her.
I assure you, only the silver haired Tessa's the one feeling any sadness the viewer however is most likely feeling elation, euphoria or at the least relief.Hellsing321 said:

You haven't seen the ending of Sailor Moon, have you... "I will not fight you, ever, and that is how I will win! You know that my refusal to fight, even after you kill every one of my friends, will turn you to the side of good in the end!" And of course in the end Sailor Moon is right and that's exactly what happens. Gah, it was so, so incredibly annoying...
Does that show show how absurd Sailor Moon's ending was, or something?

The Church of Tessa tolerates unbelievers, but enemies of the faith might be another matter...
(Seriously though, I like both Tessa and Kaname, but if I had to choose one or the other as the better character, Tessa's cooler.)
