The anime is going to have 30 minute episodes. Well it's an OVA actually, but meh.

sad T_T though I find that a lot of old anime is an acquired taste, especially for the terribad ones

I think you misunderstood me. What I meant was "Watched or (encountered and disliked) all of d3_crescentia's suggestions. Probably should have said "Watched and liked or encountered and disliked" o_O. Sorry.

Mmmm what do you guys think would be a good anime for marathoning with two people who don't watch anime often (one of them having watched none at all I believe). A friend (and her boyfriend) and I are planning to watch an entire series in one day but I'm a bit unsure on what would be interesting enough to hold their attention for like eight hours lol.

AFAIK she enjoys light hearted / comedic romancey animes, but she said whatever is fine. I was thinking Clannad would be an excellent choice since almost everyone I asked who has seen that said they watched it all over the span of 1-2 days, or possibly Kanon might work, but iunno. I'd like to find something that has tear jerking moments and isn't extremely dramatic the entire time, but romance animes that make you cry and are captivating enough to watch in one sitting are far and few :>.

kodomo no jikan

12 episodes, and will keep the atmosphere interesting

You want to recommend a loli ecchi show for three people to watch? What's wrong with you man.

i have no idea what you're accusing me of. I am merely recommending an anime that everyone should be able to identify with-- grade school children going about their lives and interacting with their teacher.

An anime about lolies is a really shitty idea. The reviews for the show were pretty bad and there is a woman joining the group. Think about the situation before posting, Zooey.

The 'reviews' (I don't even know where these reviews are coming from, perhaps an established anime critic?) for Bleach, Naruto, and One Piece are through the roof according to the expert analysis of 15 year old male adolescents. Clearly they are worth viewing over a masterpiece like Kodomo no Jikan.

A woman should have even more understanding of the anime since the central focus is of the three girls and their relationship to a male teacher (inspiration, father figure, etc).

I have obviously thought of the situation before posting. Why else would I have posted my exact recommendation and not a bland recommendation? You need to be more receptive of specific individuals and their requests.

Hahaha, that reply made me laugh so hard. There is a reason why Something Awful bans anyone who promote that anime.

Is the using of a terrible site's banning policy supposed to sway my or anyone else's opinion? Where are you going with that post? Baffling.

Heh, personally I don't have much of an issue with incest (especially cousins, why are we even counting that), Akisora is a fair bit higher than the mill of the run incest in terms of ecchi (might as well as call it H, heh).

Slightly disappointed at voice cast for Baka Test, which I saw while wiking it for book information. Also, for whatever reason, traps seem to be high in favor atm, what with Kinoshita Hideyoshi winning back to back in popularity polls for light novel and other things...one even showed up in the latest Umineko...derf.

Even with all that though, this looks like a pretty dull season. Just as well, I still have a good 20ish light novels from NISHIOISHIN to read. Someone please pick up Zaregoto series for animation, it is way easier to do than bakemonogatari

I'm fine with incest, but Aki Sora is basically just hentai. Incest done right: Koi Kaze.

Ugh Kampfer... Thank God that the next possible time for a sequel would be like two years from now.

And what do you mean Zooey?

Of everything in that picture, the Kindergarten show and Hidamari piques my interest.

Hidamari especially (of course), but only mentioned the other because of no previous knowledge of it.

Well I guess that Fate Stay Night thing too. Just barely. No high hopes. At all.

The premise is similar to Kodomo no Jikan, but it isn't an ecchi. Also it's being done by Gainax which is interesting.

I'll be watching:

Hanamaru Kindergarten
Ookamikakushi
Legend of Koizumi
Durarara
so.ra.no.wo.to

Now And Then, Here And There: tragic and brutal
Casshern Sins: Unique art style, beautiful backdrops and an OST worthy of an award imo

I don't know about that, we've seen far worse things get a sequel, and considering how the last episode was supposed to be a special...well, I'll be happier if it doesn't get a sequel, money and time to other things please.

I am personally counting on Katanagatari to come through and be plain awesome so I have motivation to read the series instead of clawing for the the incomplete things.

ep12 was just a weird special wasn't it?

as for the winter season, i'll check out a good portion of them but probably end up watching two or three. I'm hoping Katanagatari is good

No ecchi is fine. That is preferred anyway. No doubt I was referring Kodomo no Jikan for its characterization and exploration of a variety of themes. The occasional bones that were thrown to satisfy the slobbering dogs on the other hand are amusing but not enough to interest me on its basis alone.

I'll try to chill down in the anime thread but it's way more than entertainment for me (PH?). The popularity of an anime tells me nothing about how good it actually is. I don't see why you are pulling Clannad numbers on a whim, was it because I said I disliked KyoAni? I've seen Clannad, Air and Kanon several times and I like them too. Being tsundere toward moeshit is pretentious elitism? Maybe...

And things like K-On! is pretty much tentacle rape but with a different approach.

"...it's way more than entertainment for me..."

You've been nothing but judgmental and definitely sound like an elitist in my opinion.

"And things like K-On! is pretty much tentacle rape but with a different approach."
...maybe it's 'cause I've had a few drinks, but try as hard as I might, I see no real connection...even as someone who didn't like K-On!.
