I want bluray, but I suppose I can deal with DVD for a great show like Silver Spoon.
*sigh*
Now if they could just announce KLK BDs ahead of their Tuesday show instead...
I wish they were putting out another set for Anohana.
It angers me to no end how fucking limited their releases are.
I basically have to pre-order and have money on me at all times to get these :T
Oh, was it the live painting one? I'd buy Hori's illustration :<
It's all on Aniplex's page anyways, except one of you is being autistic about it.
Yeah the premium edition sold out pretty quick. They put out a standard set though if you want it

Bolded terms I have googled but haven't found any definitions for them, I assume their names of characters with archetypes that you're using or something...
Anyways regarding female representation, there's atleast 4 prominent female characters throughout the course of the show, aside from that I don't think anyone whose watched Fate/Zero had a problem with its inequality in gender representation because its an irrelevant analysis regarding the show for what it is. Not to say that seeing cute girls is a bad thing, but that's not Fate/Zero is for it has literally no fanservice.... well except for one scene at the very end, but that's a different matter entirely.
But yeah the major critique for Fate/Zero is its shoved exposition within the first episode, since you handled that pretty well the rest of the show should come easier to enjoy for you.
Unhealthy obsession brushed off as "for the lulz" as the kids might say.
They just don't like each other.

Speaking of Fate/Stay Night, I've looked at some youtube videos of its anime openings and.... they pretty much suck. I wonder if Ufotable will stick with the first song (as it is the one from the original VN) or create their own 2 unique openings.

Zeta Gundam 28
So this is one of the episodes that I really hated back when I first watched Zeta Gundam and I think I can better articulate now what it is that I find wrong about this. First and foremost is that there is a lot of weird, sort of sexist talk going on. Fa goes on and on about how nobody is looking at Reccoa's actions from a woman's point of view, but she doesn't really explain how looking at them from a woman's perspective alters them. Beyond that, though, is the sort of half crazy assumption that being a girl makes you do stupid, silly things. An assumption which is reinforced when every man on the bridge laughs at what a stupid, silly girl Fa is and Char, while smoking a joint with Bright, muses that girls will be girls with their silly emotions and such. Reccoa spends most of this episode as a badass lady who is do a hardcore infiltration mission with balls of steel. Then Paptimus bitch slaps her and she wants nothing more than to ride his dick until the day she dies.
This touches upon a problem I have with Paptimus as a character and with Newtypeism in general: his sway over her is instantaneous and unexplained. The minute she meets him she falls in love, just as Sarah is in love with Paptimus, and other female characters as well. He has a magical sway over women that isn't explained beyond it being part of a Newtype power and isn't really demonstrated beyond "women immediately want to ride his dick." Kamille suffers from this, too (as, to varying extents, do Amuro and Judau) but with Kamille at least there's this "Oh well he's a nice guy to ladies who have only ever known abuse" but with Paptimus it feels more like he should be some kind of space wizard.
In fact, that feels like that's what Tomino wants, here: For Paptimus to be seen as something between a Space Wizard and a Womanizer but the character falls short for lack of actual charisma and mystique, relying too much upon simple "oh well magic" for every aspect of himself.
In short, I think the way that women are treated in this area of the show is pretty bad. It feels almost as if Tomino doesn't really get women, but rather than find one and ask her help on how to write a woman, just sort of barrels ahead with his really antiquated misconceptions of them, and Paptimus kind of comes to embody that entire approach.

More like Vito bullying Arti at this point.
Some weird anime news reporting superiority complex. It's kinda funny and sad at the same time.
Why is this the conclusion people always jump to? I like seeing cute girls, but not always for fanservice reasons. I do like a good bit of fanservice, but most of my favorite works come from Kirara and things like Love Live - it's just that I like female characters more. Always has been that way. I don't think it's going to impact my enjoyment of the show too much (again, the Gaim lineup), but it does mean that it's not likely to become one of my favorites, even if I do end up thinking it's very good.
They'll probably get Kalafina/Eir Aoi/LiSA/Luna Haruna to do something for it.

Is it a typo that they didn't put down english as a subtitles option? lol
The bonus material on disc is pretty shit as usual :T
• Textless Opening and Ending
• Theatrical Trailers
• TV CM Collections
y bother ._.
physical goods look aiite. The individual blu ray covers look really nice.
That it is.

Yeah I agree its better, but not as good at Fate/Zero's openings imo, if anything Kalafina is a must have.
Not just that but (for now) they accidentally flipped the SRP and store prices for the LE. Someone got really lazy when setting up the page.
I'll take a Rinmance as well since Gilgamesh route probably won't happen.
Shirou dies, Rin marries Saber.

Yes! If Aniplex is dubbing them, then there's a chance the TTGL movies might get the same treatment!

Ok first off why would they change Devo's name to Soul Sacrifice doesn't that defeat the whole purpose of avoiding copyright.
But they did a really good job of adapting one of the more forgettable fights in Part 3.
A lot of censoring still, but of course they would censor someone getting their face cut off.
BUT THE SOUNDTRACK IN THIS EPISODE DAMN
And more importantly next episode

Shirou dies, Rin/Saber, Archer is now actually
, and Waver/Rider is the last pair to be revealed.
Kiritsugu
Yes it definitely gives that vibe. Except a billion times cuter!
Have you seen From The New world? Its one of the most suspenseful foreboding shows in recent memory.
Sweet! Sub is good.
Full time jobs can be insane time suckers. Congrats on yours by the way. what do you do?
I fully understand this method of thinking, but if you truly want something and have the means for it, then buy it. No regrets. Live as you want.
A Tari Tari bluray?! I will double dip!
I wont even call it getting burned so much as just a second opportunity to own TariTari
Yes I know I have issues lol.
I spend a crazy amount of time in front of a computer at work and home. Its definitely not the healthiest obsession.
Everything looks great except Rin's profile. How do you fuck THAT up?
Dude, Fate Zero is on another level than FSN. Take everything you hated about FSN and throw it out because this is an entirely new and different experience.
DVD only again?
I would love more Kalafina. More Yuki Kajiura in general plz.
YESSSSSS

Asks questions so Ezalc doesn't have to
I'm okay with this.
Mekaku City Actors - 7
Theory time!
(I could just go and listen to the songs, but this is more fun)
Anyway, great episode.
Theory time!
I think the monster encountered Mr. Tateyama, they had Ayano, the monster encountered the snake, which gave her the eye power. I guess the power to give powers as I had imagined earlier. She gave power to her husband, Mr. Tateyama, and her daughter, Ayano. Tateyama started "working" for the monster and found kids so that the monster could give them powers, and Ayano didn't agree, so she founded Mekaku-dan to go against her parents. Don't know if it was her own decision or not, but she didn't die, she just went to a separate dimension (this could be her power). For the next episode, they will meet Haruka, Hibiya, Hiyori, and Shintaro again, and the gang will be complete. They'll go against Tateyama and the monster.
Anyway, great episode.
There wasn't a whole lot I disliked. And the story's a prequel, the context of its parent series should be taken into account. Otherwise I'm not looking at it in its proper context.

The day somebody likes fsn* better than fate zero that person is dead to me.
*assuming ufotable version is decent, but source material is still shitty compared to fz.

I'll see, but even the best produced series in the world can't draw someone in if it's not what they're looking for. I'm not trying to be too much of a downer, I just know where my tastes generally lead me.
The last third of Heaven's Feel scenario is about as good as Fate/Zero, to be fair.
Too bad it takes a long long time to get to that payoff but eh, VN gonna VN.
Pretty much. I have no idea why Vito acts like that. Oh wait.

It will alteast be better than the original anime of F/SN that much is guaranteed. However without Urobuchi involved this does question the dialogue between characters (which F/Z succeeded in) as its now back in the hands of Nasu.
That it is.
why can't we all just get along or at least be civil to each other
Because that is not the way of the world.
Probably as good as you expect. I'm hoping it's at least on par with KnK. Eh. Either way we're fucked.
