If you come in here looking for "anime recommendations" then please refer to this chart before posting: Anime Recommendations (as of may 2014). We also have an IRC channel called #tladt where we all hang out. The channel is on Rizon, not QuakeNet! Feel free to check it out. TLADT discord is Discord.gg

Ecael, kisama always makes me do the heavy lifting. You just chime in. Like a chump.

A CHUMP.

Why do liftings when uta is willing to bash out the walls of text and all I have to do is look for minor details to throw in.

Sword Art Online is one of the most brilliant ideas of all time

Please elaborate.

The idea itself is very interesting. I wouldn't call it brilliant, maybe...
Anyhow, it's pretty similar to .hack, isn't it?

I actually do think the premise of SAO is really cool (albeit, not entirely original) and had huge potential. Too bad author had no clue where to go with it. Uta's rant about it earlier overlaps a lot with my opinion on the matter. Calling it the most brilliant of all time sounds like those Code Geass fans that post here every now and then.


It's certainly not a "brilliant" idea, although the idea definitely was a good one. It reminds me of Shakugan no Shana in a way, since I really loved the idea, but thought the execution certainly could have been better.

Also, just saw the latest episode.

+ Show Spoiler [SAO - 7] +
OH MY GOODNESS THEY RUSHED THINGS A TON. There was hardly any insight into the characters at all, and what was known about Liz's character was less of good explanation and more of intuition on the audience's part because everything is made super cliche. Granted, the story in the LN was cliche itself, but did they really feel so inclined to limit it to only half an hour?

Also, I was waiting the ENTIRE time for them to reveal dual-swords. I'm guessing they'll instead have a flashback to that scene when they reveal it later?

Why would you want that, that'll be so stupidly anticlimatic. I mean, it is already obvious enough that people should guess it soon but eh, really?

I doubt they'll flashback for it at all, Liz's role is completely done.

I think I'll wait till tomorrow before discussing this week's ep so I have some time to go over things and see what I could've missed.

Well once you learn about Tabane bullshit you'll see how not having sex with half of the school is keeping the series going, though I think that involves you reading them lns.


Oh my god another LN to read. Better add that to my list.............. right after I finish 2000000 pages of Horizon LOL.

Well considering I only read them to and from uni/work it's going to take me agesssssss to finish horizon (probably two weeks) not to mention I had to buy a couple of the LN's (jesus they were hard to find) since my phone decided to be an ass and die.

Yup. Lots of cases where this happens. For example, the titular character from Hayate no Gotoku is voiced by a girl. For an older example, so was Quatre from Gundam Wing.
It's like, "Is the Federation's Mobile Suit some kind of monster?"

Happens alot with young boys. since pre-teen voice is really closer to female than adult male voice.

Shiraishi Ryouko (Hayate) is famous for voicing male. Noto Mamiko did some also.

You would be surprised how many animes utilizes females for male voices. At least for teenagers. Although its not to say this is something thats unique to only anime as you can find them in Western cartoon shows as well.

Kimi No Iru Machi is just one misunderstanding after a misunderstanding after a misunderstanding. I cant see the story developing in any direction without needing at least 20 more volumes...that manga is so annoying to read nowadays

I know right? But I'm still reading it :S

I mean come on, we all know how it's going to end (barring one massive troll). Liked Suzuka better even though it was sort of awkward sometimes

I stopped after the Kyousuke arc (which was IMO the best) when he and her finally got together again and went to the pool. Couldn't stand watching the train knowing it's gonna crash any second now
