Everything else is more or less the same and I don't mean that in a positive way unfortunately (just personal opinion :/). | ||

I guess people's tastes really depend. I personally enjoyed those last few episodes more than any others  Though the first season was good but a bit sloppy in explaining developments or how things chain up between scenes, and the second was just a huge rise to those finale 4 or 5 episodes. I'll probably give a shot at Guilty Crown if people say it's good. However I just watched TTGL which was already pretty similar to CG so it's probably better for me to wait a bit before going into a whole mecha themed anime with conspiracy shit .... | ||

GC is realllllyyyy bad. It started okay but the later episodes were a trainwreck. | ||

All else being equal, I absolutely love linear storylines (i.e. more or less linear with just a ton of bad ends and a single true end) as opposed to multiple routes, maybe it's just me. Hope I remember enough after going through ML by the time I start Alternative. With luck there's not TOO much foreknowledge required. I got the feeling that people either find ML a fun read with cute/interesting characters, or a trite story with mediocre plot/characters but still a well-presented overall package. Evidently a lot of you guys just flat-out don't like ML though ;P | ||

I would never ever recommend anyone to play MLA without having played through the other two first. Right now I'm afraid of starting up Fate/Stay Night again, MLA has like 2 choices in 50+ hours of time, no branching, no bad ends. Fate/Stay Night is like a minefield in comparison... Fuck lacrosse. ML Extra Chizuru can go to hell. | ||

Isn't CG also a "turn off brain enjoy the ride" show? o_O That's the impression I got. | ||

I have terrible taste, I know, I enjoy trainwrecks.

Gankutsuou seemed interesting might watch that though. But I just watched fate zero and quite enjoyed it. Out of the anime I've watched Imo it's the most serious without needless melodrama and characters crying every episode. I'm looking for action/drama anime that doesn't take place in high school or anything and the main character isn't useless teenager. I really liked that the main character had strong ideals he's willing to fight for. Not going to bother with fate stay night since I heard the anime adaptation is bad and yeah seems like the main character is useless and it's kinda harem shit. There are three anime I keep recommending and you've watched one of them. So, Black Lagoon and FMA: Brotherhood. | ||

Wait you actually have to remember that?! O_O Oh wait wait talking about liking ML. Yeah....eh :/ didn't think it was crap exactly but yeah obviously wasn't mindblowing. I find the fact that you can get 50+ hours out of a linear storyline amazing though. I definitely think it's gonna be my kind of VN :3 | ||

The way the different cards are being introduced is incredibly sloppy, in my opinion. It's too abrupt every time. I hope they start explaining the actual powers soon. + Show Spoiler [Tari Tari - 2] + It's a bit unrealistic for a person who was mortified by singing in a group to sing in a duet, much less a partial solo, merely a year afterwards, but I'll accept it. But more importantly...PILLOW FIGHT GIF ANYBODY? :D | ||

They're similar in that I gave up on both of them :D Though I only got like 7 episodes into TTGL, and heard it takes a turn for the better shortly afterwards? It was way too disjointed and chaotic for me, 7 episodes and I still haven't gotten any clue as to a storyline, so was time to switch it up. They're also similar in that they both look great in HD though, and have cute girls :3 | ||
