And that's the part that I warned people about when it might make you cringe. It hurts especially since you guys are anime fans, and thus far more likely to feel inline with what it's doing
Also found it neat as I was thinking of Heartcatch 2 making use of a new crew while there was a possibility for older versions of the previous group could come in every now and again.

Most of it is just secondhand embarrassment to me. I'm super shy but I was never as incredibly awkward or antisocial as Tomoko.
Right, need some anime recommendations, please.

Indeed.
Also thanks Umakoshi for justifying one of my doujins that Itsuki has the largest tits out of them all.

I'd start with Flowers of Evil, Bakemonogatari, and Watamote out of those.
Oh, and My Ordinary Life. I forget that's Nichijou sometimes.

I hid my power level in school and no one knew i watched anime, it helped in the long run. I was a bit of a shy kid, but no where near as bad as the MC in that show.

Watch the bolded and get rid of Devil Survivor 2. I've been having fun with Attack on Titan but people who've read the manga have been mentioning that their pacing as of late has been quite terrible. Up to you on that one.

I laugh at myself all the time, but I still have a lot of anxiety and in high school it was so bad it almost caused me to kill myself and I ended up in a psych ward. Seeing Watamote use killing herself as a tool to get what she wants from her brother and I'm supposed to view that as a "comedy" moment just rubs salt in some really deep wounds.
Danganronpa 01:
Best girl
Maybe it's because I just finished playing this but the episode felt really rushed in terms of pacing.
Yoooo we got tan skinned characters in this? I'm in!
I completely understand. Right now I've got huge anxiety and stress issues. But I guess my personality meshes well with the show or something. Anime's always been a bit of an escape for me. This show just made me smile more than anything.

Both TWGOK S3 OP and Watamote OP are sooooo good.
Hope the full versions delivers.

Yeah... it hurts when you feel like something is mocking you or making light of a situation that has affected you deeply. Watamote is not one of those for me, but I know how ya feel. Drop it and don't look back.

It's too bad because honestly I can see so much awesome in the show, I'll probably just stick to reading the manga version I feel like I'd be able to handle the awkwardness better in page form.
Sunday Without God 1
Really like this show, they're laying the mystery and intrigue on thick already in this first episode and I can't wait to see where it goes from here.

It's a pretty interesting story too. Not mind-blowing, but fun.

I second this. Nothin' is worth hurtin' yourself over like that.
It kinda reminds me of back when Another was airing. I was looking forward to it, until all the deaths started happening, and it gave me an anxious feel, like even though the circumstances were one in a million, they felt too real to me. I had to stop watching it after that and I don't regret that decision one bit.
Sometimes, we need to do the best for our minds.

You say that like I know who that is.
Pom Poko is the next Ghibli movie to get the Blu-ray treatment, arriving in Japan in early November. For catalog films, this leaves just Ocean Waves, The Cat Returns, Princess Mononoke, and Spirited Away.
yup.
Nice
Ocean Waves is the best film of the lot so hopefully that's next.

it's definitely rushed, and they definitely accentuated asahina's upper body
I'm totally ok with the 2nd part of that. ;P

You say this like I cared that you knew who. (second from the right)
Still can't remember where I found this. Maybe that day we searched high and low for fanart.

That suicide threat part may have been a bit much, especially for being played as comedy, but that just seems par for the course when Japan has such a wildly different view of suicide compared to the west.
But yeah, other than that, I think it's a pretty damn accurate look into the mind of someone with severe social anxiety (and other such problems). Dropping it because it makes you uncomfortable will still not seeing it as bad is perfectly fine. Hell, I did that with Goodnight Punpun and haven't looked back.

Is there a science to why the cross dressing girl that is 'cool' is always the one with the biggest bust?
I was going to comment about that.
