Well, I liked Another. Looking forward to the next (and last) episode. An OVA will be launched too, called "Episode 0".
My bets: it will talk about Misaki and her's sister. MEI-ON, like it should be done :D
Except that's what the show is like at this point and it is fucking terrible.

I don't like all the hate it gets, just because people expected something horror-y instead of cute girls surviving cute death at every turn. Wait, since when did Another have cute girls surviving cute death? And it's not that unreasonable to expect horror out of a horror show. Instead we get comedy, which is fine to enjoy, but also a good reason to hate on it. So if a show is labeled mystery, horror, and action but it turned out to be K-ON, it's not okay to complain because you like K-ON? Why bother categorizing stuff into genres if the label is never accurate? I feel like if something is good, it doesn't matter if it was supposed to be labeled a certain way. If I watched Redline expecting racing and got K-ON Kart, I'd still like it, because I like K-ON. Show nested quote +On March 22 2012 06:09 Ecael wrote:
if you turn a novel into an anime, the anime follows the genre of the novel. The novel is mystery horror, the anime is anything but. It deserves every bit of hate it gets. I'm not saying that just being enjoyable makes something good, Another could be a terrible anime, but it's still fun to watch. And if reading the novel would have ruined that fun for me, I'm glad I didn't. Show nested quote +And another use of my face when brave 10, guilty crown, sympho and rinne are supposed to envelope you with storytelling. I just meant that you can't really watch an episode out of order, or skip an episode, without missing something important. In Another, nothing is really important, it's like 10 minutes of Mei, and 10 minutes of nameless "not-even-important-enough-to-be-supporting" characters deaths.
If Redline has some original book that is hardboiled racers and you get k-on kart, I don't know how you'd like it just because you like k-on. Fucking up can generate laughs, but it isn't a laugh where one enjoys a product, but a laugh that you do when you have nothing else left to do but to laugh a piece of shit.
I am glad you didn't read the novel so I don't have to headdesk harder at the insanity of someone enjoying a trainwreck. If the intent was for you to turn your brain off and just relax, then sure, even k-on is enjoyable in that sense. Another is anything but that, and every bit of not needing to pay attention stemmed from you spoiling yourself and not looking for plot that's awkwardly placed in it.
And I can watch the first and last episode of all those things that I listed and still get a decent guess at what it was supposed to be about, you can totally watch things out of order and skip episodes without missing anything actually important. Another simply trivialized itself.
GC 22 END (yay, I didn't even check if the movie rumor was for real)
15:46 ecael you know
15:46 ecael between Another and GC
15:46 ecael this might've been the best season for comedy
15:46 ecael zzz
15:46 gAOxI did you forget
15:46 gAOxI daily lives?
15:47 gAOxI if you mean
15:47 ecael not really my thing, also that's legit rather than comedy
15:47 gAOxI unintentional comedy
15:47 gAOxI then
15:47 gAOxI sure
15:47 ecael lol gc 22
15:49 ecael wanted Eva, decided to settle for CG

Wow, skimming through Arakawa Under The Bridge S1, and the style reminds me of Bake a lot.
Will definitely give this one a go.

Just finished FMA: Brotherhood. Haven't seen the original ( yet?), but damn, that was a very good ending. Left me staring there like an ass not knowing what to do.

Finished Kara no Kyoukai. Wow pretty w00t experience. Definitely happy I watched it all and there wasn't actually a moment when I would think about dropping/skipping.  too bad it lacked same kind of musical side like elfen lied had, even when it really has that theme song (Which I like).
Dunno if ending was completely satisfying tho.

That manga is brilliant in ways I can't aptly describe.

+ Show Spoiler +So, they explained nothing, and raised a few more questions without answering it. Maybe I just refused to listen to any explanations given. Why didn't Arisa or Yahiro die? Dammit, so disappointing.
I was cheering so hard for Arisa's shield to break under all that gunfire, and it even looked like it started to crack when her leg started crystallizing. When Shoe started to take the virus symptoms from Arisa specifically, the order of my reactions went like this;
-WTF why is she being saved?
-Her void gets taken from her, thus her shield disappears, yes!
-She gets consequently gets shot, YES!!!
-Then I see her outside rescued with only 1 bullet wound, WTF? shitty aim much?
So why did Shoe go blind? Where did Kenji come from? w/e who cares. This show's finally over. Only good points I have about this series was, the soundtrack was pretty good. If the ending insert wasn't so touching, I probably could've cared less about the results.
Also, random robots taking care of baby robots?? wat?
Edit: Ayase screaming SHOOOOOOEEE at the end was really cute too.

GC22:
+ Show Spoiler +Pretty disappointing, like many pointed out. I thought it was going to be about Inori, but it turned out that she had like 3 lines.
At least it's almost certain that Inori was Mana's clone. Otherwise they wouldn't have the same Void. This answers the question from Shu as to why Inori's Void is the sword.
I am guessing what happened is that Inori and Shu merged. Inori was blind at the last scene - and in the end, Shu was blind, too. This is pretty WTFsauce to me, but I'll buy it. There was no doubt for a while now that Inori would die at the end, but her death was very anticlimactic.

I agree, Rebs, that we can rant and talk about these things so long as we're justifying it and not sounding like complete tards, but I also think there's a certain point where it just makes the show worse.  Not sure where that point is though. And speaking of pointy things, I just finished Seirei no Moribito. Holy cow that was entertaining.
This. This is also why I love ZNF. He gets me and always has.
