If you come in here looking for "anime recommendations" then please refer to this chart before posting: Anime Recommendations (as of may 2014). We also have an IRC channel called #tladt where we all hang out. The channel is on Rizon, not QuakeNet! Feel free to check it out. TLADT discord is Discord.gg

For currently airing anime, please see Anichart.net

As someone who has had to put up with Muv Luv's school romantic comedy portions before, I'd say that giving Lucky Star a chance is infinitely easier than the alternative.

Then again I just never liked Muv Luv in any context.

You guys are talking about someone who pointed moeblobs as the downfall of anime. I still remember that epic rant earlier in this thread.

Like I said, the ending obviously wasn't bad enough to sour everyone's taste. Sure, the ending wasn't good, but it wasn't something like Berserk's ending. Additionally, look at all the people who give Lucky Star scores that are greater than 1 on MAL. MAL ratings cannot be trusted.


Sentenal's been hurt.

Weren't you the one that never gave Lucky Star a chance after the 4th episode?

*ahem* After the 4th episode.....director changes.

And to be honest, the entire pacing changes.

But I guess I'm talking to a brick wall, because I'm sure you'll probably still hate it. Hahahaha.


I don't even think that turning it into an awesome mecha show could save it in Sentenal's eyes.

I dunno, I think it'd be effective. I mean, he's reading Muv Luv just so he can play Muv Luv Alternative, after all...

MuvLuv's only redeeming quality thus far is that some of the girls in it are cute. Beyond that, its been a huge snooze fest, generic harem bullshit. I can't wait till I get to Alternative, and it gets to the [allegedly] cool stuff.

I don't really remember that rant, but it definitely sounds like something I would rant about. Anything with alot of cute girls (although, I fail to see how any of those "people" in Lucky Star could be considered cute) sells well. Case in point, IS. IS sucked, but its fucking popular. I wonder why. Anything else (such as plot, action, etc) are just things on the side. IMO It hardly takes any creativity to come up with these generic moeblob K-On!/Lucky Star rip offs (or even Lucky Star itself). And since these shows don't really require good animation (look at Lucky Star, and how hideous that show looks), I imagine their budget is fairly cheap. Cheap to produce, and Otaku love it! Lets flood the market with them!

You still haven't finished Muv Luv yet? Is it that unbearable? Or is it because you can't read it at work?

To me, IS feels like a one time thing. There were other moeblob shows....Minami-ke...and a couple others that are pretty good to be honest, but they don't get so much attention even with their concentration on the humor and cuteness when pitted against certain other shows. I mean....the general hype over Oreimo is gone....even though both Kirino and Kuroneko were pretty moe at the start.

I think the only reason why IS did so well is because it was blatantly moe. It just snapped at every attempt to show the cute side of a character, something that's rarely seen. Even K-ON! didn't do so much as to take advantage of moe blunders over and over again. Granted it happened, but to me, not so much as IS.

But I take your point...IS was pretty terrible. But I have a feeling there's only one moeblob everyone wants to see in IS.....

MuvLuv isn't an horrible abomination that is a blight upon the face of the Earth( like something else that I've mentioned in recent posts), but there are just other things that I'd rather do that read through a generic Harem romantic comedy. I've completed that main 2 routes, and the Unlimited route is unlocked now. IDK if I need to go through all the minor character's routes in Muv Luv or not, or if I should just get through Unlimited, and finally move on to Alternative.

I wasn't counting the OP, i was the 10,000th "reply" i shoulda said i guess.

And it depends how picky you are too i guess. I like pretty much any genre, and I don't watch more than a couple eps a day, so good ones never run out. ^^

Maybe they'll all get together and brainstorm up some more ideas, if everything is getting old now.

You were the 10,000th reply, I was the 10,000th post.

Anime sucks now because of Lucky Star.


And then it. was. on.

...WTF, you were there too, Ferrose? you're everywhere. I like how you managed to make several posts in those pages without getting involved at all.

Anyway, persona trailer came out a while ago but didn't see anyone link to it.

Well we know for a fact that Harem lurks here. So I guess the way it is now is fine. As long as we keep it in this thread.

I was going to post a rant about the current anime season. Then I realized that I was a bit too lazy to do that right now. Then I saw this post.

So, is there anything juicy happening in this thread? I'm a bit too lazy(/drunk) to look through the previous posts right now.
