that's why I don't like Shana 2. Nothing too bad about season 1, and Sabrac was good. If it wasn't for Sabrac then I wouldn't have spent almost 4 years of my life waiting patiently for the finale.
ZnT was a terrible pure fan service that hinted at a plot that never developed. At least season 3 was that bad. Season 1 wasn't that bad either but it progressively got worse as time went on.

I actually liked ZnT S1 and 2, more but of a "fun to watch and just relax and not have to think" sort of anime. S2 ending was actually pretty cool. S3 was just silly though.

I hear that a lot, so I still have hope. The problem is they could always either branch from canon or destroy it ZnT 3 style, though it does sound like Shana 3 will follow canon. btw, I hear ZnT 4 is coming out...please tell me it's an elaborate troll of the internet.
lol yeah, ZnT is getting a final season.
For reals?
As for my list for the Fall Season... I think Mirai Nikki is a definite. Yandere is best dere. Fate/Zero too. Several others I might watch depending on what ADT says.

Sabrac arc was decent I liked it
Sabrac arc was the only good arc in the second season, the Konoe Fumina? arc was boring as shit.
just didn't like how they went with anime original ending =\
I wouldn't say it was the ONLY good arc. IDK about the last arc being anime original or not, but it wasn't bad. It was a decent way of finishing out the season. Its just the first 19ish episodes were so zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
wait didnt the first 19 have the pheles arc aswell ? That was entertaining enoughish... it wasnt memora ble but theres so much fodder around I reckon it was decent..

I thought ZnT was alright, but Louise is way too much of a bitch. 1 sec she's all deredere, the next shes all tsun. Wish she'd just face her feelings after the third freaking season.
Normally it wouldn't bother me so much, as I generally really like tsunderes. But her feelings at the end of season 1 are pretty much the same through the rest of the other 2 seasons and she acts the same exact way -.-. I thought I liked slow character developement until I saw it this slow

imo obviously.
The problem with Louise isn't that she goes from "tsun" to "dere". The problem with her isn't that she doesn't face her feelings. All tsunderes do that. The problem is that she is "tsun" 99% of the time, and her tsun isn't normal tsun, its like her tsun is trying to fucking murder the poor guy. And then at the end of like every season, her character developement resets at the beginning of every season for the sake of "comedy", if you consider "BAKA INU" and Louise stomping on the poor guy's balls every episode.
Ya....I couldnt watch Shana. I really give it a good 18 episode run in season 1. In episode 13 when she got bondage and then she just randomly summoned the sword of the guy and then threw it at him.....I was like wtf....how did she....when could she teleport object by turning them into fire and then materializing it in her hand. It never clearly explain her power or the limit of her power and the some what weak action that threw me off from it.
Also I think episode 15 when they explain her past, it seem she was so much stronger in her past than in the future....ugh I guess this is something to do with not clearly explaining her power. I mean she freakin killed that samurai dude that was said to be the strongest (something that i forgot) and her skeleton friend that shot a rainbow beam that broke the barrier and probably had the power to destroy the entire city like they were nothing. Yet she is had trouble defeating 2 incest sibling and that doll guy. You could say that her emotion clouded her because she started to fall in love but it just seems it made less sense from here on.
Also, I think sentinal told me how bad season 2 starts so ya....more reason for me to stop otherwise I would of commit seppuku by being forced to watch season 3 with you guys.

Pretty much. I mean, some of Rie's other tsundere characters which have a better balance make the show more engaging. Toradora was actually really enjoyable and touching at times. Maybe I'm just soft.
:12 Sentenal i have a real hard time liking characters who are a bitch the vast majority of the time. like type moon tsunderes have balance, and arent constantly bitchy 16:12 Seki 性格* 16:12 ecael akiha if we only look at amount 16:12 ecael is 9tsun as well 16:12 ecael lol 16:12 Seki うん、でも秋葉が 16:12 spazer I dunno lol 16:12 Seki 困ってるときとかに 16:12 spazer depends on the route 16:12 Seki 性格が出て来る 16:12 ecael lol meido routes 16:12 ecael she is like 16:12 ecael 120% tsun 16:12 Seki そういうので「ああ、こういうキャラなんだな」って感じになるから 16:12 spazer dude 16:12 Seki 嫉妬してるからね~w 16:12 spazer she's fucking yandere in those routes 16:12 Sentenal shes fucking insane in meido routes

URUSAI! I tried to stay away from some of the obvious stuff such as the cliche love side plot and some of the other stuff that I dont quiet remember because I have already gotten most of my memory of shana repressed. These were just some reason on a more personal level.

At least Taiga got somewhere, as did the actual relationships throughout the series. Toradora was really good imo except for
the super cliche nonconformist ending of being like 'oh we can't have a super happy ending so lets just let a year and a half pass before it has a happy ending' that was pretty much worthless imo
