Holland also became an asshole and Renton is still annoying.  Denpateki na Kanojo got recommended to me, so I watched it. It is pretty awesome. There is something seriously wrong with this town though. I think the majority of the girls introduced are insane. =/ Or Juuzawa just has incredibly bad luck with women. He sounds a bit like Touma, now that I think about it. And "electromagnetic girlfriend" = biribiri? Hmm... Majority? Nah, not really that bad, Juu just has horrible luck. I was really disappointed to find out that the 2nd OVA was going to be on vol 3 of the light novels rather than vol 2, but they inserted a random scene in the OVA that suggests another one might be done, so I am cool with that. It is an amazing shame that they decided to axe the action scenes though, while it wasn't necessary, it was completely badass to see the trio of Ame, Yukihime and Madoka at work (yeah there was the whole thing at the mansion, but that's nothing). Anyhow, I am just looking forward to the Yukihime-centric vol 2 to be animated. Denpa is a term of art by this point, think of the electromagnetic waves in terms of those people who wear tinfoil hats and you should have a good idea of what it means  おじいちゃん☆ 老人ボケはキ☆ヲ☆ツ☆ケ☆テ♪ Yikes -.- Time to go do those brain age games and eat more fish | ||

Any suggestion is appreciated. thanks =) These are some of my all time favorite anime: 5 centemeters per second (Movie) Clannad (Series - Must watch IMO...romance but still good) Clannad After Story (Series - This is what really make Clannad so good) Baccano! (Series - Hilarious and very reminiscent of the movie Snatch) Cowboy Bebop (Series - Very interesting show...if you like Firefly, you will love this) Kara no Kyoukai (A series of 7 movies - Very very interesting series of movies.) Princess Mononoke (Movie - Favorite Anime movie of all time ^^) Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu (Series - Skip the endless 8!) The Place Promised in Our Early Days (Movie - Another one like 5 cm per second) Those are just a few of my favorites...hope you enjoy =D | ||

Oh man people are going to be pissed. So yeah, AB would've worked much better as a LB style game. | ||

More tension build up in Saraiya Goyou, and I'm far more interested in Yaichi now. I can't wait for the next episode! Yojouhan Shinwa Taikei remains the BEST series of the season. What else is there to say? | ||

DRRR's ending was basically to set up for the next chain of events. It is cliche in a way, but well, the series isn't over. Things are slowly getting into motion from vol 6 and on. That's better than Index, it'll take that series 2 seasons to finally get to the better parts | ||

Any suggestion is appreciated. thanks =) Ok, Since you really haven't watched much, I'm going to give pretty scattershot recommendations, so you can try to figure out what you like. Kanon 2006 - drama/harem (I like it better than Clannad, but you can try that one too) Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann - Mecha (big battlin' robots) A really fun show Gunslinger Girl - Action/Drama Code Geass - Basically more Death Note, they're pretty similar :p Haruhi - Comedy All these shows are are fairly short and generally pretty accessible. Depending on what you like, you should try other shows in the same genre. Edit: looking at other people's suggestions: I forgot Cowboy Bebop, that's another good show to try. Baccano might be good as well. I'd try other action/supernatural shows before Kara No Kyoukai Ignore red_b :p I'm fairly sure those are not the best "intro to anime" shows 5cm/sec would also be a good choice. | ||

Last episode was meh. Though at least they gave us Kanade + Otonashi in the end. I hate how 90% of the cast just left without a word. So many loose ends, plot holes, etc. Needed more explanations and backstory, like what the hell TK / Shina were doing there. Also, I love ambiguous endings. I LOVE THEM SO MUCH -_- Feels like this would have been so much better as a 26 episode series. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + I kind of liked the ending, but only because of the Otonashi / Tachibana sadness. I'm a sucker for this kind of melancholy. The rest was... blah. Sudden character changes from Kanade / Yuri, unexplained rules about the world (how did Otonashi arrive after Kanade if Kanade got his heart), there could have been more development of Otonashi x Kanade, how did the others disappear, what were their pasts. And yes, I love ambiguous endings tooooooo. | ||

No TK antics made me sad, and everything before the 2nd half of the episode made me want to puke. I don't buy the new character personalities, and I disliked the random insertion of a joke in the middle of the song. It totally broke the moment. | ||

Hope you like Etrian Odyssey and plain dungeon crawlers. And crashes, lots of crashes, which patch fixes, but lots of crashes. Oh, if you get a star seed, try to remember how and where you got it. I just can't seem to get any more of it and need a freaking ton. This is really making me wish that they'll just pour all these resources into part 3 of Eienshinken. AB is my new sola -.- About the time issue some pointed out, it has already been broken pretty much with Naoi and his century-long existence in the world. | ||
