New Anime Season

[fuzzygeek]

Monogatari is the one series I watch in "real time" instead of waiting 12-26 weeks for it to end and nabbing the batch. This season has been amazing.

I'm hoping for more Hataraku. The premise is ripe for amazing things, and the characters are a fucking blast. It helps that I have a thing for Emi's VA.

Started watching Sword Art Online with (read: for) the missus. Nothing huge, it's not quite as braindamaging as .hack// was, but I realize it isn't actually mysterious enough to catch my attention.

I really enjoyed the first season of SAO. It's a nice departure from bland harems, and the author is unusual in that he actually writes committed relationships. I liked the Kirito/Asuna dynamic, especially how strong Asuna was in her own right, which was largely removed in the second season (she's dealing with her own struggles in the book, but the anime downplays it due to insufficient screen time, or because the producers started meddling and tried catering to siscons or someshit, I suspect).

But I enjoy the world enough that I've read all the translated LNs.

Yeah the second season really shat all over Asuna and I did not appreciate that.

Kyoukai no Kanata is rather nice.

Kill La Kill is amazing. Studio Trigger can have all my babies. <3

All the yes.


Witch craft works's anime started recently, but I didn't like it. The manga is entertaining, even though nothing close to the hits this season...but the anime failed to interest me. Except for the deranged ending animation.


After one of the cuts the anime adaptation did to Aoki Hagane no Arpeggio:Ars Nova 's manga, I haven't had the heart to watch the last couple episodes. The whole thing is pretty good though.

So I've been a big fan of the Nisekoi manga for quite a while now, but it definitely falls into a lot of standard buckets - it's a popular, mainstream, Shonen Jump romantic comedy.

The anime is being done by Shaft and Akiyuki Shinbo.

***MIND FUCK***

All the yes.

So. Uhm. Episode 17.
I feel if I go sleep I'll develop a second personality just to process what happened, and only later next week it'll merge back and I'll be able to pick up my jaw.

I KNOW I'm old school, stop rubbing it dammit!
Funny, wife show me that one just yesterday.
Interesting re-design, but nothing important in the grand scheme.

Well, you're the only person in this board with a passing interest on Saint Seiya. XD

If it helps, just about everyone I talk to regularly is interested in that too, so I'll pass it along.

I think we're the only ones that lived in a market that aired Saint Seiya shortly after its release in Japan back in the day. By the time it actually arrived to the US, it seemed outdated and the heavy censorship didn't help.
