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

Episode 6 of Gargantia is pretty damn creepy in its choice of camera angles and closeup shots.

Also lol at people trying to distance Urobuchi from the project now.

Woaaaah, I just caught up with Liar Game. Great manga that utilizes puzzle thinking and psychology by introducing different games; how the hell can the mangaka come up with everything though? It blows my mind but I guess that's why it's constantly on a hiatus...

I'm sad though since I've heard that the last hiatus was 1,5 years long. Damn.

It just needs to be mentioned any time anyone says something like "he is only responsible for the first and last episode".

Just finished Steins;Gate. Wow. Gotta watch more anime. I'm in a state of depression from realizing that I have no more episodes to watch.
Please PM me with any songs you like that you think I haven't heard before!

Yeah I've been reading it (or rather waiting for chapters) for an eternity.

The puzzles are kinda meh though a lot of it is accomplished merely by obscuring shit from the reader and randomly introduces deux ex machinas. Still fun I guess but hardly super intelligent...convoluted maybe but meh.

Well, if that's what people have heard or read (me included) it's not too odd if they state that. Then again, /a/ is not the most trustworthy of places, so it might be a myth as you said. *shrug*

Its correct that he's only writing the scripts for the first and last episodes.

Its not correct to take that as a sign he doesn't have some involvement with the rest of the show. After all, for him to write the last episode's script, he has to be involved with what gets there.

Well, not necessarily. He could do Gatou Shouji thing and just come in and randomly write an ep.

I don't even read the pages with the "puzzle stuff" anymore :D

entire pages covered in poker hands and scores. Super interesting stuff.

I like this type of manga though.

He also said this about Gargantia:

"Gen Urobuchi explained on the official website that the message of the story is aimed towards those in their teens and 20s, who are either about to enter into society or recently have, and is meant to cheer them on and to encourage them that "going out into the world isn't scary". He also said that the feeling of this work will be different from others he's been involved with."

So you shouldn't be expecting anything grimderp to begin with.

It's for sure fun to read the twists, even if they're a bit contrived. The best part about it, though, is that the characters feel quite developed, even the side characters and villains. I felt like in DN, which is a similar genre to me, you kind of had Light and L (then Near), and everyone else had pretty low amounts of development, even Misa.

Also, if you like Liar Game check out Life is Money. Was a short series that has a similar feel.

He says that every frigging time... that he wanted to do happy story, but somehow it just end up wrong for him.

The harsh reality of the real world and entering society/looking for a job. Oh god I hope that doesn't happen...

the song is SO BAD and annoying, and its so corny, yet i cant seem to stop watching this, because mechas ._.


I skipped the whole song... Can't they just skip the school life and go straight to battles


Don't worry, from some interviews it seems like it'll get "more serious" from now on. Whatever that may mean.

edit: you should edit your post instead of triple posting :p


I need to triple post in order to feel active!!

New Beelzebub chapter Here
As much as I saw it coming, this was still incredibly badass. Right now, as far as the popular manga are concerned, Beelzebub is most likely my favorite, or maybe tying with One Piece. Shit's going down, and is all around awesome.

I watched an ep. 25, not sure if that's the OVA. It was good. Tied up a few questions I had.
