Jesus christ, that was evil. Shinobu just didn't stop. Also really liking the serpent. Even though Sengoku is what of my least favorite girls when not playing twister, that snake is really getting some good dialogue out of her.
As much as I like HanaKana I don't think snake really lends herself to... Good dialogue. The serpent was interesting though.
For me personally bat's surprise Vampire Punch saved the episode. There's just so much constant oomf from her. About her being mean though... I wonder if she was laying claim to her territory, or unconsciously protecting Araragi from snake because she feels something doesn't add up. It's certainly not how she behaved towards bee and phoenix.
Umm. Yeah. Maybe I should have just taken other people's advice and stopped Railgun after the Sister's Arc ended. Sure 24 had some nice action moments, but god the logical blackholes and random crap (wtf mecha), not to mention that Misaka speech to glasses. Also Shinobu coat > Shinobu goth maid.
On reflection if I wanted to see a SoL Raildex I'd rather see KyoAni-esque 10032 +4. At least character development would be easy enough for JC to handle >.>
Shinobu isn't doing anything mean, she is just being truthful about Nadeko. And yes, not even a snake can make Nadeko have good dialogue, but the whole point is Otori was basically to have her get tongue lashed by other characters anyway.
That and yandere.

Mushibugyo-sama moe.
I was only going to read the manga but the anime blew past vol scans, well, I am happy about it.
Anyone got any movie recommendations like Summer Wars for me please? I enjoyed that film alot, and it was English Dubbed so even more win, plus the quality of the animation was superb. The story is key though, was epic

It will get to me sometime never
I am hyped.
Enjoy, its very good. I only know one person who didn't think it was great, and that one person's taste is already suspect, so I'm pretty sure you will enjoy it. Have you watched/read any Getter yet? If not, you could always read the Getter manga until it arrives. Armageddon, despite being very good, isn't what I'd recommend to someone as their 'first' Getter.

Any help would be awesome!
If you like Summer Wars might as well check out Ookami Kodomo no Ame to Yuki (though not quite similar) and Toki wo Kakeru Shoujo (kinda similar but not as good).
List of anime i went through these past couple of months and watching now. See TLDR for non description post.
Completed
Koi to Senkyo to Chocolate: Maybe it was because it was only 13 episodes and they could not give much more back-story for each girl. I did not feel that attached to the story but still powered through to see how it ended. Overall it was okay and it had some funny moments; Moheiji Tatsumi was definitely my favorite character. The only thing that had me wondering is if you play the game, do they explain why Moheiji wore his mask or that "Garage" guy has a propeller on his head because they did not explain it?
Little Busters!: Same as Koichoco but I liked how it had a much stronger male cast compared to other similar anime. They never explained the "flashes" Riki gets but maybe season 2 might get into it.
Daily Lives of High School Boys: Just awesome. I like how they have all of guys being just really nice dudes and then the girls are all mean. I always thought the reason why they sometimes don't show faces of some characters was because of the whole dream consisting from episode 4ish on but it seems that's just how it is .
Hyoka: I picked up this one from watching random clips from Youtube and found a clip of it. I researched it and found out it had the Seiyuu duo of Youhei and Tomoya from Clannad and I had to give it a try. Did not disappoint. I like the detective style and mystery of the anime. The only thing I didn't get was the rope part in the horror movie storyline.
Psycho Pass: Kind of like the Anime version of Minority Report liked the overall story and each character. I always thought the reason the MC didn't get her psycho pass up was because she was like Makishima. Comments on sites says shes just a numbskull. Can't wait for season two loved all of it to be honest.
Steins Gate: I also watch Doctor Who so I am a sucker for time travel stuff. It started off really light-hearted funny stuff with some sciencey talk and then........stuff happens O.O . I liked how they wrapped the story. One can hope for another season but it is probably no chance of it occurring. Mayuri definitely best girl then Ruka (non trap version).
SnK: Despite having very long inner monologues scenes, the action and the story is very attention grabbing. Along with the looming mysteries of the world its a really good action anime. Mikasa best girl.
Servant X Service: Chihaya best girl. I hope we get to see the section director in person if they make a second season.
Uchouten Kazoku: I have already sang praises for this anime, definitely AOTS. because the FEEEEEEEEELS also because of awesome OP and ED.
Watching Now
Monogatari: Of course Chihayafuru: First sports anime I have picked up because I was always put off from sports themed movies or shows in general because the usual winning of the main team/character, there is no in between; that's the best I can explain my strife with the medium. Working!: I picked this up because I found out that the creator also made SxS Nana Shin Sekai Yori
Getter Robo (Gecchan) CV.Maaya Uchida 14 years old. Weapons: Getter Tomahawk, Getter Beam. A tsundere ojousama-type. A spoiled and inobedient girl. Her specialty is aerial combat.
Steel Jeeg (Jeeg-san) CV.Minami Tsuda 20 years old. Weapons: Knuckle Bomber, Spin Storm, Mach Drill. Though she may be the oldest of the Robot Girls, her otaku ways make her an unfortunate person. President of a doujinshi circle. Her days are filled with delusions of old-school martial arts flicks.
Getter-chan gonna be a tsundere ojousama. haha. Can't wait for this thing.
