Girls und Panzer 10
Well, I'm glad I waited to watch this, that's a terrible cliffhanger to leave people waiting for a few months on.

Terrible sales for a terrible season. Nothing to see here.

Terrible sales for a terrible season. Nothing to see here.

Bomba season, Vividred and Maoyuu supposed to be 15-20k seller in early prediction, but the hype slowly dying.

Bomba season, Vividred and Maoyuu supposed to be 15-20k seller in early prediction, but the hype slowly dying.

Maoyuu being in that range would be pure insanity. The thought never crossed my mind.

 

[chickdigger802]

So... theres definitely gonna be more love live anime right? 1 more year.

Wonder if the framerate is less butt for the cg stuff on BD.

 

[fertygo]

Maoyuu being in that range would be pure insanity. The thought never crossed my mind.

Well yeah, the early pre-order ranking turned out to be false alarm lol

[fertygo]

Love Live actually already marketed by Sunrise like a year before airing with music videos and daily appearance in anime magz and such, just for sake of comparison.. Tamako Market got almost no ads from Kyoani and announced like 2 week before airing.

 

[Kurita]

Dem Jojo sales

 

[7Th]

Love Live BD 1 was half the price of a normal BD and it included tickets for a live event featuring the VAs; later volumes won't be selling nearly as much. The average will probably still be around 18k, tho.

 

[Dedication Through Light]

Bakuman is so fucking good. It's still running here, I buy every volume day 1.

If only the anime were releasing here, still my only incomplete anime purchase only seven episodes even. Were up to vol 18 manga, need to read it still my stack of unread manga is huge now :/

 

[Awful Falafel]

Hyouka 22 (Rewatch)

Just wanted to let you know that even though I never commented on them that I really enjoyed reading these.

 

[darkside31337]

Last time I went to IRC it was just me and darkside sitting around awkwardly.

I don't remember this.

Was I drunk? Were you drunk?

...

 

[Westlo]

Way this anime is progressing, you will probably see her around episode 10 or so, if you decide to watch.

ah hell no

they better hot shot her in earlier!

 

[Dedication Through Light]

Are you ready?

 

[Jintor]

Girls und Panzer 8
Did they really have to bring in

Spoiler

school closing drama

? Meh, I hope this doesn't become a large focus.

To be fair, their school is a god damned aircraft carrier. That shit's expensive.

 

[darkside31337]

Are you ready?

Hell yeah. Glad the best idol show of recent times is getting a second season.

(disclaimer: have not watched love live yet)

 

[Milamber]

(disclaimer: have not watched love live yet)

Why!?

 

[darkside31337]

Why!?

... I don't know

Just haven't had a lot of free time since I've been busy with work. Maybe I'll get around to it tonight.

 

[R_thanatos]

sasami@ganbaranai - end
It was enjoyable, still the final twist was funny ..i guess i should underestimate god power logic.

Nice anime even if it had mild start .. give me more if possible.

 

[Kurita]

Are you ready?

What is it about?

 

[BGBW]

Terrible sales for a terrible season. Nothing to see here.

We can only imagine how much worse the sales for this season will be.

 

[PdotMichael]

We can only imagine how much worse the sales for this season will be.

Because the spring season is even worse or because of the good shows don't sale logic?

 

[Basileus777]

To be fair, their school is a god damned aircraft carrier. That shit's expensive.

That's true. And having just finished the series, it doesn't become an unpleasant source of drama.

 

[BGBW]

Because the spring season is even worse or because of the good shows don't sale logic?

I was implying it was even worse but I guess it's too early to say. I may actually enjoy some of the new shows but at the moment nothing has grabbed my attention.

 

[chickdigger802]

Kotaku loves Sao 3rd arc.

Kayos really should go write for them.

 

[Basileus777]

Oreimo will sell enough to save the entire Spring season.

 

[Westlo]

Kotaku loves Sao 3rd arc.

Kayos really should go write for them.

Phantom Bullet is much better than Fairy Dance, but I guess that isn't really saying much lol.

 

[BGBW]

Does it end with Kirito "summoning his persona"?

 

[DiGiKerot]

Are you ready?

That doesn't look very Lady.

 

[duckroll]

I was implying it was even worse but I guess it's too early to say. I may actually enjoy some of the new shows but at the moment nothing has grabbed my attention.

Good then there is hope that stuff might actually sell this season.

 

[Ultimadrago]

I don't remember this.

Was I drunk? Were you drunk?

...

At least it wasn't me.

You calling me mean names.

Kotaku loves Sao 3rd arc.

Is it as funny as the last two?

 

[Theonik]

Sailor Moon 28

Tsun

Luna no baka! Really liked this Yoma's design, wasn't quite as funny as the last few but it looked cool. It seems striking how for some episodes the show wants to go the pure comical enemy route while others are somewhat more serious. This episode was OK.
Edit: Oh a couple more things I meant to talk about, Umino is a stalker. Quite lewd too.

 

[Dedication Through Light]

What is it about?

This

 

[Ultimadrago]

Girls und Panzer OVA 2

I'm only taking images of the best team and the best girl (Anzu, Pres, Prez, Deko, etc.).

On to the next one!

Are you sure you're not the one seeking attention?

 

[7Th]

New Rise of the Technovore PV.

2D ARMOR

 

[Kurita]

This

Male idols?
Guess I'll watch that.

 

[kpjolee]

I expected Vividred Operation to at least crack 10k in first week. I guess the lack of story did matter lol.

 

[Milamber]

Heh, "crack"...

 

[7Th]

I was implying it was even worse but I guess it's too early to say. I may actually enjoy some of the new shows but at the moment nothing has grabbed my attention.

Muromi-san looks pretty sakuga; it definitely has the most visually striking PV of the season.

 

[Ultimadrago]

Muromi-san looks pretty sakuga; it's definitely has the most visually striking PV of the season.

My poor ears.

 

[Chet Rippo]

Muromi-san looks pretty sakuga; it's definitely has the most visually striking PV of the season.

That's actually pretty awesome. I guess I'm watching that one.

 

[Defuser]

Maybe I should give Love Live another shot but I got my assignments which keeping me busy.

 

[Ultimadrago]

Dammit, now I'm going to have to watch Love Live once I'm done with Girls und Panzer.

Yep. I can't not see all these Milamber .gifs in scenario!

 

[dimb]

Muromi-san looks pretty sakuga; it definitely has the most visually striking PV of the season.

The character design is atrocious.

 

[duckroll]

New Rise of the Technovore PV.

2D ARMOR

Kameda worked on that too. Lol.
