I don't think you're supposed to look at Genshiken expecting a plot, just as you wouldn't for Lucky Star or ARIA or H+C. Although H+C kinda develops one as the series goes on >_> | ||

Ninomiya Hikaru's stuff <3 <3 <3 Very mature/seinen topics dealt with. Ahiro no Sora <-- if you like stuff like H2. Zeroin Hayate x Blade <-- I forgot what it was called before it moved magazines, though. Somewhat shounen-ish fix. Nabari no Ou <-- it got animated, but I didn't watch it to the end, I don't know why, though. Manga is ongoing. Dogs: Bullets and Carnage <-- hard as hell to find raws so I'm definitely not up-to-date And I have to admit I liked LOVELESS (though not up-to-date), but I have high tolerance for these things. Oh, and Full Metal Panic: Sigma, if you wanna find out what happens in the novels. | ||

But since I don't want to go down that road of discussion... Saraiya Goyou's so good and such a tease! Each episode just continues to build up that tension  | ||

Anyway, after watching it I checked out the "tattoo" of command spells for Saber, and found a fan site to Archer that literally blew my mind. I'll put it in here for anyone who hasn't seen this awesome anime yet, and I recommend it + Show Spoiler + Archer is Shirō Emiya from the future! Or at least, A future. Apparently in this alternate timeline he went on to become a hero yet was dissatisfied with the life of a Servant (coming back again and again to fight) Which is why he was guiding Shiro to understand his true powers and why even as an Archer he used many different types of weapons, mainly swords that he imaged himself. However, this timeline was different that Archer's past, which explains why Shiro is the complete opposite from Archer. | ||

eg. there are now two Kuronos, there is some alien colony, people control Gantz, alien abduction raids, etc. + Show Spoiler [Random Eva 2.22 images/thoughts] + This is what's going to happen if BP can't plug their oil well.  ![[image loading]](http://img692.imageshack.us/img692/2090/utwthoraevangelion222yo.jpg) I mean the part where all sea life is dead, not the warships, in case you didn't get it. And this scene creeped the heck out of me. I blame the original series. ![[image loading]](http://img192.imageshack.us/img192/2090/utwthoraevangelion222yo.jpg) + Show Spoiler [Saki] + ![[image loading]](http://img337.imageshack.us/img337/5512/6516.png) lololol What kind of school dresses their students up as mikos? Well, it's not like realism is the strong point of this series... Isn't this the school that gets ryuiso (all green) in the anime preview? It's the weirdest hand in mahjong, really. Gotta wonder who came up with that one. I never thought of K-on as manzai comedy before. I guess it does fit the pattern though. Edit: I keep trying to read comics from right to left. TT | ||

TT I tried watching the Gantz anime and got three like three episodes before I put it on hold to find out more about the series. I looked around for a good five minutes, and people all seemed to be saying that it makes absolutely no sense, even in the manga despite its however-long run... Like wtf...lol. | ||

I watched the anime first, and I will admit, the manga definitely gets better after Ga-Rei Zero'd been released, but its horrendous start is nigh unforgivable. One thing I definitely miss in the manga is the MC (can't remember her name) using swords ): | ||

After looking through the May 2010 desktop thread, I found a cool picture of Saber from Fate/Stay Night. I'd never heard of it before and had an off day today, so I plunked down and watched it all in one sitting. I loved it! It's about time that the main character actually picks a girl, and picks the one we are all rooting for!

There's a movie coming up that follows the UBW route of F/SN if you're interested. There's a discussion of that a few pages back. (Coupled with incessant Shirou bashing =D). Essentially, the anime series followed one of three alternate telling of the story from the game, and the movie will follow the second. | ||

(very much enjoyed crescendo + yume miru kusuri. wasn't a fan of tsukihime, then again, only played the arc route) You can only talk about Tsukihime after finishing Akiha, Hisui and Kohaku route. My opinion on the remainin heroine can stay unstated. From the list though, you are only playing the ones that has been translated right (as opposed to Japanese or AGTH+translator) | ||
