On the other hand I like where Sunrise is going (except for recent Gundam, everything after the first 00 season has left me feeling pretty meh besides Unicorn) so bring on the ridiculousness. Re: Space Dandy. I hear it's going to air on adult swim dubbed at about the same time... but I'll probably go for subs anyway. | ||

If you just want amazing romcom, watch Nodame Cantabile and Kimi ni Todoke, and my personal bias, Skip Beat. Nodame and Ouran are really good shows and I wholly endorse their recommendation. | ||

On a separate note, finished JoJo yesterday (the recent series), such good stuff. And from what I have read, the manga is pretty much the manliest long running manga, full of poses, manly men, and awesome fights? The anime was pretty great, and the OPs/ED were great as well. And gintoki being the voice of joseph was great, too (which I had said before) | ||

I recently learned that the MC in Kimi no Todoke is voiced by the VA that does Kotomi in Clannad and Benten from Uchouten. She uses Kotomi voice for Todoke but if she used Benten voice oh man  . | ||

If you just want amazing romcom, watch Nodame Cantabile and Kimi ni Todoke, and my personal bias, Skip Beat. thanks for the recommendations. Well, I read Love Hina a long time ago but I enjoyed the odd twists and the general approach even though the constant running was ridiculous XD Toradora has no haremish parts so far unless they come later on and I haven't gotten there yet. School Rumble looks good. Ouran Host Club and Nodame Cantabile seem a bit odd lol but might give them a try. Kimi ni Todoke, I read the first chapter of the manga but got busy and forgot about it although I'll give the anime a try when I get the chance, same with Skip Beat. Any other ones? I guess I like romcoms a bit but I'd want the two main characters to be oblivious to each other's feelings or something like in the two I mentioned because it makes for some rather bizzare situations and such XD | ||

I liked the Pet Girl of Sakura Hall as well, thats one where the main characters are sure as hell oblivious, but I guess its not a true rom com more of a romcom slice of life/growing up? | ||

So yeah its going to be hilarious when RGZ is a million times better than the unwatchable trash that is Valvrave. | ||

Or that Valvrave has a bigger fanbase (aka is less 'niche') than Mazinger fucking Z? A franchise that's been continuously getting new entries added to it since 1972? A series that had average episode ratings in the high 20s%, and episode getting a rating of 30% (one of the highest ratings an episode of anime has EVER gotten)? And as an aside here, I doubt Valvrave even gets a 3% rating. A series that created the concept of the "giant piloted robot" and a genre that would go on dominating anime for the next 30~ years? | ||

No I'm implying it'll be more popular than moemoe Mazinga, and it's not specifically targeted at otaku - it gets fujoshi eyeballs as well. | ||
