Valvrave is awesome, you just need to turn your brain off. They bombard you with so many cliches and make them so obvious + Show Spoiler +(my favorite would be created bombs out of thin air, set them on all levels of a building in 15 minutes, used a needle thin cable to break his 200 kmh fall, threw non-existent missiles into space and then crashed a massive ship with just smoke. He planned all this beforehand, apparently, down to the second) I feel bad for all the people who can't enjoy the show, but I'm having a blast.

Valvrave promised me mecha, and mecha I am getting. I'm okay with it.

You can keep your pity thanks, there's plenty of decent shows where I don't have to "turn off my brain" and the last time someone tried to hype something up for me with that lazy argument was Guilty Crown.

Spookie Boogie yet? And it gets a lot better when they start stringing together the connection between the cases instead of being "case of the week", I'd say give it some time into that at least. Finished 00 Gundam, second season. I thought it was okay. The movie was pretty shitty though.
i remember that i warned you about the movie, why you no listen Q_Q my 00 memory is well preserved because i never watch that movie <3

How can this script gets a greenlight i dont even understand. Sunrise only cares about selling the robots i guess. you mean + Show Spoiler +Pretty standard Sunrise Original In all fairness they were at least trying to make sense of the stuffs in geass for the viewers but Valvrave is on a whole new level, is like they fired half of the studio after the disastrous Gundam rAGE and borrow some workers from Bandai to work on the anime. On the other hand TM revolution really reminds me of the good times i had with Destiny. Sunrise is so mammoth that they have like a dozen different separate studios within them. The team that does Horizon is different from the team that does Gundam Unicorn, just for one example.
Ohya....horizon is decent enough and i totally forget that it is from sunrise....thank god Unicorn team is different from this err......gundam age team i assume? I'll call the good team Unicorn Sunrise and bad team as Gundam Age Sunrise from now on.

Well you see....i certainly dont like it but i don't really hate it either, i mean i will still watch it until it is absolutely unbearable (like the later episodes of Guilty crown) because watching something ridiculously bad that allows me to flame/talk about it, is what i enjoy doing lol.

I'm liking it unironically.

Valrave makes it pretty clear what you should expect,
GC initially tried to Con you into thinking there was more to it.
Valrave also didnt have any hype akin to GC so I dont see what the issue is here.

How was GC trying to con us? It was like "from the guy who directed CG S2!" and then it ended up being like CG S2!
|
GC was exactly what I thought it was so therefore I was able to enjoy it.
|
To be fair, Sunrise put out more quality work than any other studio... for over 30 years. But they also made alot junks
Also, the I'm pretty sure the Studio who did Gundam Age is same one who did SEED

Well yeah for people who are weary of that fact.. I personally didnt have any major misgivings, with who was making it. Atleast not initially.

Okay I'm dropping Psycho Pass, I actually struggle to get through each episode. Concept is sort of cool but the execution is oh so wrong, the characters are completely bland and I'm not going to drag myself through hell just in case I might like it. Maybe later.
So, what's good to watch right now?
I watched the three eps of Valvrave. I guess I like it, sort of have mixed feelings about the main character being a giant pussy yet instinctively piloting a giant death mecha + powers. I liked that Lelouche was such a badass in CG and I hated that Shinji was such a pussy in Eva.. So... I hope (fuck what's his name..?) Haruto mans up soon and not just in a the-girl-I-like-but-don't-have-the-balls-to-ask-out-is-dead-so-I'll-kill-you-all-even-though-I'm-a-pacifist way.

I just remembered "my wtf" moment after watching episode 1!!! Sadly, the killing slowed afterward -_-
