My first impression upon seeing Koko's character design made me expect a Balalaika-type voice from her, and it felt weird in the beginning hearing Shizuka Itou's voice. However, after watching the rest of the episode, it turned out fittingly well.
That's pretty much how I felt about Shizuka Itou's voice. It was kind of hard to separate her voice from the typical characters she plays. Granted, I did watch Area no Kishi right before Jormungand, going from Nana to Koko didn't help but I got used to it eventually.
As for the show itself, it seems decent so far. I'll continue on with it.
It was the same where I heard Kana Asumi's voice in Haiyore! Nyaruko-san, happy nonetheless though as this makes up for the lack of Miya in Amagami ss+.
Recognising voices is one of a first steps you've watched too much :\.

I'd recommend Darker than Black if you want something with action. Skip the second season though, it's pretty lame imo; it gets a lot of hate for its ending and a bunch of other changes they made from the first season. The OVAs are good though and bridge between the two seasons.
Personally I liked the second season. The first season and the OVAs were better, but I still think it was good, and I wouldn't want to stop watching at the point where the OVAs end.

Ano Hana was so good btw, I still can't get the opening theme out of my head and man I cried so hard. + Show Spoiler +
"You found me!" T_T T_T T_T T_T T_T T_T
Madoka is really good so far, but the universe is so loosely explained. Even the artwork abstracts everything about the world around them and makes all the action character and relationship centric. Not used to it, but I think I like it.
Madoka was good, prob an 8/10 for me. It doesn't get that good until the 3rd episode but after that it's great.
By the way, how is Shakugan no Shana as a whole? I just started watching, and so far I like it.
First season was good. Second season dragged on too long with one arc and made it into just a retarded high school romance/comedy. It only got good near the last 6 episodes. They ended it with an anime original end. Third season retconned the second's ending, completely ignoring it ever happened.

That shit was so imbalanced and hard to play. Never playing another RTS not made by Blizzard again. I can't believe Warcraft 3 wasn't in the list of options to play =(. We should play that!
RA2 has perfect Dustin Browder Balance (TM) , every unit is counterable and completely destroyed by its counter, its your own fault that you didn't know what the counter was and build at least one of it while the rocketeers killed everything
i remmeber playing the first cnc. mass recon bikes and buggies unbeatable. vulture packs that kill everything. with decent macro by the time GDI made one tank you could have a 5-8 recon bikes/buggies. damn imba lol
I think most people here were probably still wearing diapers or chilling at preschool back then. And if they werent, they were charging up ION cannons, atleast I was heh.
well i played it with a friend who found a free version that has online play and everything, so i was playing multiplayer games with him . some of those singleplayer missions were hard though

Well yea Koko is definately no Balalaika, which is why I figured Itou would work reasonably well, but I dont think she will fit with the range that Koko brings as a character, as long as Koko is being flippant Itou sounds ok because thats something Itou does pretty well.

or waiting for airstrike cooldown while making ur base pretty with concrete/sandbag walls.

Assuming topic is red alert series, I remember some patch that added on like a bijjion units. And from those the most imba probably was the very tank APC that you can have like 10 infantry units in and they can shoot out from it. Moving bunker ftw. Missed old games with no such thing as army caps.
I dont know if its just 75 or 91 its titled as 91 so I dont know whats going on. Chiffon pulling the messianic sacrifice dialogue. Uninteresting way to have her die (if she is dead, cant say for certain just from that) kinda sucks, still pretty ballsy to get rid of her just like that.

it really was the 91st chapter. The english translations so far are only at chapter 73 so you just spoiled yourself but I checked the portugese translation that is up on batoto and there really doesnt happen much in the next 20 chapters until 91 lol

Yea I dont care really care. Its been pretty meh for a while. English is up to 74 and then theres a random scan of 91.
lol @ this harem situation. All the girls are gunning for him. this is great, Minoru you player, YOU PLAYER! I totally want him in Team B just saying.... Yoshinaga and her dad's Arc Oooooo the Asisan parents thing well, I guess it was a good arc,
It's hard to tell whether Koko is more of a bitch than Balalaika or vice versa. Regardless, she was originally voiced by Inoue Marina, and for whatever reason the anime decided to switch the actress.
anyone wanna give me a recomendation on what to watch next out of the 2012 animes? i was thinknig rinne no lagrange, but if theres anything elsee thats amazing i wanna know becuase i dont have time to watch all of them sadly
Wow, AKs are fucken crazy, M16 you rock, taking a bullet for L85 who as usual acts a bit dysfunctional, (even though guns don't really die) Yay for the revival of Sig, good to have Swiss back with us.
As usual Sig is there to save the day, Even though FNC is the MC The manga is basically about Sig kicking ass. Tenouji is a fan of swiss guns maybe?
If there is one thing Upotte taught me is that
All joke aside the battle rifles really did their parts too, sniping off the AKs and holding them back.
Also FG42 in casual where without the eye patch is hot dat heterochromia, also German ladies are awesome =0
