About shana:

Me watching season 3 is based solely on if they ignore the very CLEAR ending for season 2.

Shana S2 had a very slow start. All that Harem no Shana stuff was terrible. I just prefer Shana-tan a lot better. Shana is a decent character. I like her love for melon bread and her "Urusai, urusai, urusai". As for the series as a whole, I thought it was okay. I would prefer reading the light novels.

Season 1 of SnS is one of the few series I have burnt on a CD...

Shana's a good character, but the rest of the cast is easily forgettable. I just want more Shana, so I'll definitely be watching season 3.

Also looking forward to the new Darker Than Black. ^^

Season 2 didn't have a clear ending at all. Bal Masque is still around, and theres still plenty of light novel to go through. They haven't even touched on the Snake of the Festival yet.


There are so many sequels I'm hoping/waiting for now..Shana, Zero no Tsukaima, Kannagi...and I guess Strike Witches to an extent.

Also, the latest ep of Canaan was great =D + Show Spoiler +

Then why did you stop watching?

Shana isn't just bad, it's pure shit. I don't understand why some people doesn't get bored of Rie Kugimiya's super tsundere characters. To me, she completely destroy otherwise OK shows (Not that Shana would be anywhere near ok even without her).

I admit, I still watch Hayate (!!) and it's not as enervating for comedy, but for other type of genres it doesn't work very well. Shannon in Umineko was slightly better because she kept her voice profile low.

I just marathoned through Basilisk, and even though I wouldn't recommend it to anyone, the raw action was very relaxing and enjoyable. The story reminds me of a live action movie I saw, Shinobi - Heart under Blade (or something similiar).

I enjoyed watching Toradora, everything up to it's shit-tastic ending, but as far Rie Kugimiya's Tsundere's characters go, it gets pretty repetitive.

+ I love Bakemonogatari.

Haven't finished Sayonara Zetsubo Sensei though, I found that kinda boring =/

Just finished up reading vol 1 and 2 of Bakemonogatari, which I think should be all that's included in the anime. Chances of us seeing kizumonogatari is slim, 2 episodes isn't enough to wrap up a whole book. Nekomonogatari isn't slated to release in light novel form till next year, and nisemonogatari hardly makes sense to stuff in season 1. Was an excellent two volumes, so I guess my next task, other than reading kizumonogatari, would be to watch the rest of bakemonogatari and pause on every weird frame Shaft stuffs in.

Though I have to say, the par set was so high I am rather worried, given that kizumonogatari is the prequel story about Shinobu/Heart Under Blade (iirc, too lazy to check) and Araragi's encounter, it'd mean a whole book without the characters from bakemonogatari sans for Hanegawa and Shino. Considering how hilarious his interactions with the rest of them are, this is almost a recipe for failure, but who knows.

Shana isn't just bad, it's pure shit. I don't understand why some people doesn't get bored of Rie Kugimiya's super tsundere characters. To me, she completely destroy otherwise OK shows (Not that Shana would be anywhere near ok even without her).

Well, one-pattern is actually fairly amusing after a while, kind of how Gurren Lagann is so shitty it becomes actually kind of awesome. I don't have much of a thing for Kugimiya, though I can't deny that there are other seiyuus that I'd follow obsessively :p If nothing else though, she doesn't really make a show bad, she just practically sets the par of the show at a low but consistent point.

i started watching rurouni kenshin just because i heard a lot about it
after like 19 eps i feel robbed
wtf is that guy and his reversed blade sword.. seems so cheesy and pointless
and most eps are barely connected, theres no plot lines to follow so far besides adding new characters
Can someone ban this guy please? FA?

I think for kenshin, they don't actually start any arcs until later. And yea, looking back now, it was pretty cheesy.

The Kenshin OVAs are very good but the anime itself is filler hell. I saw through it all half a year ago and I also want my time back.

QFT, the OVA is way better story and visual wise compared to the anime series.
Just finished Bokurano anime, the one who wrote that has some serious issues. Starting with Terra, got high expectations.

Yeah, with Kenshin you are better off reading the manga, otherwise you won't get to see Jinchuu arc at all. Actually, Kenshin is the only anime that I can think of that actually had such crappy fillers that it got canceled due to bad ratings, speaks something about the fillers after Kyoto Arc heh.

OVA...well, it isn't "better story", since it is just the stuff from within Jinchuu arc for the most part, the anime is just too bogged down by fillers.

So I've been reading through nisemonogatari too, can't seem to stop and halfway through the final volume, gimme nekomonogatari now

Today is the first umineko episode I am actually interested in since the Touhou cosplay, let's see how they pull off an element that was purely text in the original visual novel.
