Basically like this: On April 28 2011 13:26 Ferrose wrote: Moshidora seems like this: Insert clever references to Peter Drucker to satisfy the business people. Then add a cliche but heartwarming sports story about a crappy team that suddenly dominates and wins a championship. Mix with tear jerking tale about wounded girl chara (come on, they wouldn't introduce her just to be a mentor). Finally add cute high school girl protag to charm readers. And now you've got a home run (lolpun). On April 30 2011 09:22 Spazer wrote: It was mentioned a page or two ago. Ferrose summed it up pretty nicely: it's just a typical sports anime with a little business jargon thrown in for good measure. Still, it's not bad. | ||

I'm really enjoying the general theme of the show and the characters as a whole. Though, I kind of hate those mole/birthmarks on his brothers face. | ||

What would be your guys' idea of a perfect anime/manga/VN? You've all seen/read/played enough to instantly know what's up when they do X, Y, or Z (i.e. they throw in this or that to appeal to a certain audience, or the storyline is this type, etc.)--that is, you all have a more or less holistic view of the industry, but what would be your idea of a perfect anime/manga/VN? It's completely subjective, so the question is also up to your interpretation: whether you want something that's unlike anything you've ever experienced, or you want precisely this voice actor playing this role, this company/mangaka, etc. Just wondering | ||

For Visual Novels at least. | ||

I was thinking maybe we can get together some time and like, watch a season finale of some epic show or something. I don't know, but only two months before I'm off to Japan so if we do something like this it should be soon! UCSD otaku unite! | ||

Heh well I don't think any currently airing anime will be epic enough to warrant a party, but if you guys wanna do something like that before finals week hits, let me know and we can actually plan something seriously this time. If you want it to be really big, maybe contact the UCSD anime club whose existence I barely know of x.x Speaking of 2 months from now, is anyone planning to go to Anime Expo this summer? I've never gone but since my otaku nature has developed greatly in the past year, I think I'll probably go. | ||

I can't go to AX this summer but I went last summer. It's okay if you plan to go only one day; any longer is overkill I feel. I got to see Kitamura Eri and Horie Yui on the day I went so it was worth it. AX is mostly about the guests you get to meet imo, but they do have some pretty sick stuff for sale in the exhibition hall and you can see some pretty cool cosplay. Before I went I was skeptical about the crowd I'd see there but there were actually some pretty cute chicks. I was surprised. But yeah, if you go you should only go one day, and make sure you pick a day with good guests and stuff. If you go multiple days you'll probably spend most of the time not doing anything. | ||

hmm thanks for the tips. I was planning to go for most of the days because I actually live up in norcal so it wouldn't really be worth it to drive down just for a single day, but I can see the logic in not having anything to do past day 1 if there's no guests I want to see. However, if that's the case, then that means I'll be able to attend AX as well as NASL finals live  Also, just watched Deadman Wonderland 3. I don't understand why they censor so much. Considering how much blood *should* be in the show, I don't see why a couple words need to be censored. Aside from that, it's proceeding fairly accurately from what I recall from the manga. They changed a couple things but hopefully the fight scenes are done well without excess censorship. | ||
