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

Shirou is alright, but the males protagonists in T-M just don't tend to be all that awesome Tohno Shiki probably the best of the lot, though Kokutou has an unique charm. Shirou...well, is Shirou.

Shirou is a character that makes me want to punch out my screen. It amazes me that any character could be so dense. Maybe this is part of the reason why the h-scenes are unintentionally hilarious (though admittedly, it's not like Tsukihime's were much better. It's just not Nasu's forte, I guess). Shirou is pretty much the sole reason why I hate the Fate route, and by extension, the anime. He's just so goddamn stupid. Agh. Shiki is also stupid sometimes, but at least he's sharp when it counts (usually). Kokutou is probably the smartest of the bunch. Too bad he doesn't really get to do anything.

Heaven's Feel is going to be really epic. However, I do not like that constant harem thing in the series. It makes the story even lamer.

You really think they'll try to make a movie for HF as well? I figured UBW was just a one time thing for the fans. And as far as I know, HF isn't that popular...

Still waiting on subs for all my shows. Speak of the devil. MAL updater just found Mazui's Angel Beats episode 2 sub. This program is awesome.

Edit: Waiting to see episode 2 of most shows before passing judgment on the Spring season.

Funny how the "extremes" of both Shiki and Shirou were far more popular. Nanaya is just plain badass, even more so when he gets a voice in Melty Blood. Archer, well, he started the GAR phenomenon.

It's not that surprising, really. Everything they do is just so awesome that it's hard not to like them.

I don't really know what to make of Angel Beats. It flip flops between comedy and tragedy so quickly it's a little ridiculous. I guess dark humor's just the norm for this show. I laughed when I saw the laser trap. Resident Evil, anyone? Also, the OP is glorious.

Just finished Clannad ~After Story! I am really glad I watched the series even though I had already seen the movie. Probably close to my favorite Anime series I have seen so far. <3

+ Show Spoiler +
Fuck the movie...the series is so good ! Ending seemed a little cheesy to me...but I was happy that Nagisa was back =D.


Anyone else going to be at the Atlanta Anime day tomorrow? It is only a one day thing...but looking forward to it =D

Finished Kobato. Cute show with a decent ending. The crossovers with xxxholic and tsubasa chronicles cracked me up.

Starting Kimi ni Todoke. First two eps have been great, and I'm really looking forward to the rest of it with all the positive things I've heard.

Since it's the weekend, and there's some time before proleague starts, I thought I might go back and catch some of the newer series I put on hold...

I was very unimpressed by Darker than Black Senkou no Night Raid. The story was mediocre, and there is something horribly wrong with their Mandarin. Their only saving grace is that the soundtrack is pretty good.


You weren't kidding about their Mandarin. Anime should just drop the whole speaking in foreign language thing unless the seiyu is fluent in that language. I had a better time understanding Canto than their mandarin.

About foreign languages, well, occasionally they strike gold. People that watched Canaan might recall how eerily good the Chinese and English was in it. With DtB I just chuckled to myself and pretended they were speaking yet another language.

AB's OP is painful, but glorious. It hurts to see every anime have music that completely doesn't match with the motions of the characters playing

TK's voice actor isn't Japanese. No wonder his English is so good.

As for characters playing music, I guess the animators and the musicians work separately. Gotta meet deadlines. =/

Yeah Last Exile was a pretty awesome series until it got towards the end where it began to fade a bit. Still awesome though!

I've been watching Legend of Galactic Heroes this week and man it is so awesome. Currently on ep 43, and I can't stop watching :<

Original Gundam is straight up hilariously good. Nothing says Gundam except that disco intro:

I'm loving angel beats. OP is amazingly well done, though i agree it doesn't match too well, its still great to listen to. TK is my new favorite character ever.

Angel Beats Ep.2 reminded me why I try to watch a few episodes of a show before dropping it, this was so much better than the last episode.

[image loading]


Incidentally, T.K.'s voice actor is American, born in Hawaii to an American father and Japanese mother. He's a native English speaker.

As for the other shows, Heroman is pretty amusing in an old-school superhero kind of way.

Arakawa Under the Bridge is still a 'maybe' for me, going to see how Ep.2 is.

Mayoi Neko Overrun looks pretty awful, and I'll probably drop it if Ep.2 isn't good.
Favorite progamers (in order): Flash, Stork, Violet, Sea. ||| Get better soon, Violet!

IMO Zeta Gundam Op is better, although its better in a "not hilarious" way

MSG ZZ has probably one of the worst OPs I have ever seen :/

And it's also a terrible gundam series. I can't seem to muster the urge to go past like ep 20.

Ironically, ZZ Gundam starts to get better after like episode 20 lol

Not great, but better, once they get to Earth.

At least once you get to Earth, there really isn't anymore of this or this happening, and starts acting like a semi-normal Mecha show.
