Yeah, it's like Nichijou but with way more otaku references and less insane.

This is fast becoming my favourite. It's the OP to the OVA, although I prefer the OP to the series. That one is a bitch to find in full.This is just a beautiful song. It makes me happy. It's even better after watching someone get horrifically murdered :P

Hm, I always thought it was just a brighter retelling. The point about the red oceans is kind of interesting though. Frankly, I never got into the Rebuild. It just seems like it's been made to cash in and to cather to whiners who say the original series is too depressing but perhaps that's me being cynical. I like that it appears to focus on Rei more though. I always ...

I always have the hardest time explaining Ouran without making it sound really weird. I love it though.@DCypher: Making sense is overrated :P You ever watch Nichijou or Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei? Nothing in those shows makes any sense at all and it is glorious.

Hm, interesting stuff. I think you might be better off if you migrate the actual analysis to a blog post and use this thread for suggestions or shorter analyses. Seems more organised to me that way but if you prefer it this way, go for it.By the way, I recently finished Madoka Magica and you're right, there is a whole lot of stuff to work with. The TV Tropes page ...

Jormungand, Dusk Maiden, Ozuma and that one you really wanted us to watch seems like they're worth checking out.Another has more than made up for any disappointment I might have had with this season. Black Rock Shooter is pretty damn awesome too. I'm watching Senki Zesshou Symphogear in 3 episode blocks and it's alright, it's kinda dumb though.

So many since I love a good tearjerker.Perhaps the worst was in Clannad After Story when Nagisa dies and then when Ushio and Tomoya die.The last couple episodes of Ano Hi Mita Hana no Namae wo Bokutachi wa Mada Shiranai were very sad and pretty much everything Nagato does in The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya makes me sad for her.

Agree with pretty much everything else said here. I haven't had an anime site/forum to frequent for a while now and I was a little disappointed when I found that the most activity came from RP threads and character match-ups, neither of which I'm interested in. Hopefully, the sale means staff can be brought in and the purview of the site can expand to reach a broader audience. I will ...

@Babylonian: I've said this a couple of times but anime Naoto is so much better than game Naoto. It's all the more impressive since they have to cram all her development in whilst a bunch of other stuff is going on.He would only be worried about Nanako after she showed up on the Midnight Channel. After that, Dojima doesn't need any more convincing cos the rest of the Team barge ...

@Babylonian: I'm with you on this one. This series is certainly not without its flaws, the animation being chief among them. You are right in that watching the ER is pretty much the same thing as playing the game save for missing a few S. Links. I disagree with your views on the fanservice but I agree with, or at least didn't notice, other criticisms you make which are few ...

Yosuga no Sora, Freezing and Rosario + Vampire. Just terrible, all of them.

You absolutely should. That energy coming in unexpected spurts is called tension and suspense. I like that when someone isn't dying, it's subdued. Makes a nice change from a lot of anime just throwing everything in your face at once. Also, I don't feel that it drags at all. It's only a 12 episode series, if it were to drag nothing would get done.Still, of course, this is all opinions ...

@sickVisionz: Yeah, I thought the same thing. They're as stacked as Reiko is. Mei's still the best though.Again, good episode. This series never disappoints. The death at the end made me wince but didn't have the imapct of the first two in the series. I don't think that guy was ever shown or mentioned in any episode besides this one. The nurse in the elevator is still the most disturbing ...

Death Note, Gurren Lagann, Fullmetal Alchemist (either series, there are two) and Code Geass are very well regarded. They're all pretty accessible, available, have good dubs and don't overstay their welcome like long running series' such as Bleach, Naruto and One Piece.Of course you could go the traditional route and watch the 'classics' like Neon Genesis Evangelion, Cowboy Bebop, Akira, Rurouni Kenshin and Ghost in the Shell. I wouldn't recommend ...

I have smoked on occasion, but was drunk for those times and did not enjoy it. I can see the appeal. The whole ritual of it seems like it can be as relaxing as the chemical side of it is supposed to be as well. I just wouldn't take up the habit myself. Way too expensive and I'm unhealthy enough without smoking.As for other people doing it, that's their business. ...

@Babylonian said:I think you think P4A gets a pass for only being a 6 on the creepy scale instead of a 10. I don't agree.No, I just don't think P4A gets a 6 on the creepy scale to begin with.Everything I've wanted to say about this has been said already, either by me or someone else. I welcome the article about last week's episode so we can finally go back ...

@zaldar said:Yes Akira is excessively violent, if you can give me an american movie that portrayed teenagers nude and where it was supposed to be titalating then please do so.American Pie and almost every other dumb high school/college frat movie ever made? American historians consider the early 1900's the victorian age in America, I have no idea if British ones agree, it ended here with the roaring twenties.By definition the ...

@zaldar: So you would not be comfortable showing a child 'European media' even though you admit that you haven't seen any of it? Well, alright then. I'm not sure which commercial you're referring to or if it even exists. I should also point out that Europe is a continent not a country. When you refer to a (probably imaginary) European commericial with bared breasts you accuse around 50 different countries ...
