Sukitte Iinayo, hayako de go nay!!! I take it it's good? I have a number of shows I haven't watched even the first episode of yet this season, any of these that seem to be anything worth watching? Magi Code; Breaker K Zetsuen no Tempest JoJo's Bizarre Adventure
Code: Breaker is decent. Secret organization stuff and people with special abilities. Some of the battles should be really epic when animated.
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure is a long running series about the Joestar family. Not sure how much the anime will cover. The name JoJo comes from the names of the Joestar family. Jonathan Joestar who is the protagonist of the first part, the 2nd part is starred by his grandson Joseph Joestar and so forth. Great battles and great adversaries.

K is awful.
JoJo is the manliest, most stylish manga/anime in existence. Dat OP.
Edit: Perhaps I'm being unfair. You'll like K if you liked other shows such as No. 6

I thought JoJo was boring. Can't get into the anime and never could get into the manga, don't understand all the hype. The OP is pretty fancy though.

MLA TE 15:
+ Show Spoiler +Yifei is a beast. Apparently she is so good with a TSF, she can use Kung-fu in it and take out enemies, and thats all WITHOUT XM3.
Also, the new guy who showed up, the one with the F-22. His squadron is beastly. There is a translated TSFIA short story about it. While he was at Nellis, him and another F-22 Raptor did tons of training exersizes, with 100 versus trials wins against F-15 Eagles with zero losses, 199 trials wins against F-18 Hornets with one loss, and obtaining 144 wins to one tie against F-16 Fighting Falcons. And this includes victories over a previously undefeated Instructional Brigade (badasses who take the role of OpFor to drill fear into recruits during training) using only the F-22's knives.
BTW, if anyone is interested, a ton of those TSFIA Short Stories for Muv-Luv have been translated and compiled here:
http://www.mediafire.com/?jtf89jkej7qdp27
The guy has decided to translate alot of short stories related to Total Eclipse. Also Total Eclipse spoilers. Also a few "sequel" Short Stories to Alternative itself. There are like 4 of those currently translated.

Just watched the first KnK movie like 5 minutes after reading the same part of the LN. Was pretty fun seeing the adaption/differences etc. They sure added a lot of action for the movie. Not that I complain - any screentime with Shiki being badass is good screentime...
Anyway, I'll definitely do the same for the rest as well. Some of them might be a bit worse adaptions, but I still enjoyed watching the anime so soon after reading the LN.

Gezz what is it with anime and falling in love with family relations. There are other fish in the sea outside of who you are related to. Not that big of a deal since i am used to it by now though.
Talking about SAO 15. SAO seem to be turning into a real bad harem show, really starting to bury any good qualities it had

Agree, unless you're fanatical about long fights I don't see the appeal. What's the reason for a remake anyway? The original was pretty well animated... was it too short?

Jojo is split into multiple parts. Only one part was ever animated.

Zetman chapters are really way the hell too short for being monthly. Just saying.

After about a month or so, I've finally finished reading MLE/MLU/MLA.
+ Show Spoiler +I'm disappointed in the lack of a CG menu after finishing MLA... WTF?
The rest of my impressions were scattered on IRC through the past month. Varies between "pretty good", "boring" and "epic", depending on the game/arc/etc.

+ Show Spoiler +I dunno, I'm not attached enough to any of the characters except to comment on what's happening and occasionally express mild amusement or disdain ;o seriously though the author really should end it soon....maybe after the sister gets over it or something and then they get married too? dunno :S

Watch Toradora too! I tried to watch Toradora! and couldn't make it through the first episode. That girl was too annoying for my tastes : | Toradora is like the one case where id urge you to bear through with the loli tsundere voiced by Rie combo. Its worth it imo. I would not, it seemed mediocre to me... Wonder why... for something similar i would recommend kimi to nozomu eien(or whatever it's called Rumbling hearts?) Toradora has slightly less angst and a mildly more entertaining tsundere loli. Toradora wins.
Toradora is definitely more light hearted than Kimi ga Nozomu Eien. KNE takes itself more seriously I would say. Toradora without Taiga would have been so good T_T

Jojo has had an animation before but it was of Part 3 (the part with Stands, ZA WARUDO, and all that stuff). It also had a movie version of Phantom Blood (the first part a.k.a. this part), but it apparently did really poorly and was never released outside of Japan.
Jojo battles are long and complex, they are more mind games than action, which is strange since most characters in Jojo are extremely muscular. The first and second part are slightly more action oriented since it focuses around Hamon/Ripple instead of stands.
I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of it animated. The animation style tries to make it look very close to the manga style, so it looks sort of weird. Needless to say, this was from one of Araki's earlier works, and his artwork has gotten much better since then, especially since Steel Ball Run where he switched to monthly release. Also, I can't see Speedwagon with a typical japanese thug's voice. I imagine he would have more class, even for a street thug.

I think the weirder part is how everyone else doesn't really seem to care lol. Even the brother doesn't seem to mind in OniAi (which I assume is why you brought this up).

I could see people not caring, i realize i am watching a Japanese medium and in Japanese culture it is not as frowned upon as it is a western one. Cousin marriages that is, even though i thought they only went up 2nd cousin, not first like Suguha and Kirito. SO while it bother me slightly i learned to kinda ignore it.
What bothers me is that Suguha was raised with the idea that Kirito was her brother. If i leaned tomorrow that my sister was not actually related to me, or a cousin relation in the overused anime troupe, i am not going to think " hay now i can try and get in her pants". She is still my sister, just not by blood.
